I’ve been loving it so far. They also make a pretty great browser which I’ve been enjoying.

Amazing that they let you on campus with this as your topic. Princeton is a prime hatchery for the breakers of money, i.e. central bankers

Great start for outlining the use case.

Not everyone in the world is as passionate about free speech as nostr early adopters. They are not as ideologically opposed to any limitations on visibility or access.

In fact, they see a lot of posts as noise that detracts from the JTBD that brought them here. In the case you outlined, that JTBD is following a creator and connecting with his community.

So you w laid out a very sensible onboarding flow for that customer segment.

Game designers have known this for decades. You don’t take a brand new player and drop them in the middle of the final boss battle with the full plethora of weapons and unlocks. It’s overwhelming and makes for a horrible UX.

Instead you take them through “basic training” and give them a sense of progress, accomplishment, and most importantly… fun!

Gradually unlock tools and features as you become more comfortable and engaged. You can even gamify the engagement to an extent, eg to unlock features you have to earn certain engagement badges, etc.

You make fine points as well. Zero snark detected in your earlier comment. We are aligned on the post-industrial dynamics around “public health”

And that local municipal worker dialing back the fluoride… not all heroes wear capes.

I honestly don’t know who’s pushing this or why. Fluoride is already in the water systems so I can only assume this product exists because there’s demand for fluoridated water. Presumably because some consumers have been convinced that it’s healthy or protective in some way. And capitalism (of which I am a huge fan btw) or free markets more accurately will find and address most any market demand if there’s profit in it.

Here and there

Capitalism is great at giving people what they want. But terrible at telling people what they need.

This is the clarity and simplicity we need around Bitcoin.

Excellent post. Hope it makes the rounds in farming circles.

I use Anki a LOT.

Great tool for custom flash cards and spaced repetition.

If you need to memorize information this is one of the best ways I’ve found to do so.

Read the flash cards while going on a walk for extra memory boost.

I honestly haven’t found a whole lot of value in the open source flash card decks. Many lack context or are poorly organized. But perhaps I just need to search more.

I just discovered that my wife’s understanding of spreadsheets is almost zero.

She has hardly any idea of what they’re capable, let alone how to use it.

I didn’t understand people could get this far in life and never really touch a spreadsheet.
