yo – was considering making a new nym and starting fresh on nostr, or is keeping this nym a good idea? 🤔

any tips for a data scientist wanting to learn #rust?

i’m already pretty competent in R, Python and SQL - but, mostly in the context of wrangling data (have never really dabbled in a low level programming language)

No problem As for the ATM cams you can get some anonymity by wearing a hat, sunglasses, and even a face mask (not as weird to do anymore thanks to the pandemic). Maybe even a full balaclava or ski m...

haha - the full balaclava or ski mask won’t work for the australian winter i don’t think 🔥

i’d love to work to earn some xmr or sats - but, unsure what i have to offer as a data scientist 🥴 need to learn something that’s more freelance friendly probably 😅

Dunno. You're in the Bitcoin economy, not me.

1) Crypto ATMs might be a good option for some. They require minimal info like an email or phone number below a certain amount usually (plenty of sites to use burner emails/phone number) and you can p...

love all these options - thanks for putting in the time 🙏🏼 lots of different things on this list that i didn’t know about

i’ve always been a bit sketch on atms for the same reason as listed in original post around p2p trades - feel like they’re a bit of a honeypot setup where the cam on the atm is 110% taking a photo of your face and storing it somewhere

i like the idea of selling something or earning something tho - supporting that circular economy

No problem As for the ATM cams you can get some anonymity by wearing a hat, sunglasses, and even a face mask (not as weird to do anymore thanks to the pandemic). Maybe even a full balaclava or ski mask in the winter 😂 I also like the idea of selling stuff or working for it directly if you can

Check out also Azteco vouchers. A little bit expensive, but could be suitable. Definitely, there is no ideal single option, so maybe use a diversified approach - a little here, a little there

Your available options depend very much on the country you are in.

yeah, i remember when local monero was a thing there were a lot more cash in mail options - which seemed reasonable

but, every p2p option with liquidity in australia seems to be “payid” or some sort of bank transfer which i’m pretty sure potentially has your first / last name - and, definitely the details of your bank account 🤨

as you mentioned, gift cards seem lower in liquidity - mining seems to really be the only foolproof option 😢

otherwise, as dumb as it sounds, if you assume that it’s always a fed that’s on the other side of the p2p trade; then you’re probably putting a bigger target going p2p than just going through an exchange (again, as terrible as that sounds)

as you say, p2p at bitcoin meetups could be good - but, even that carries the extra risk of wrench attack

Well, every option is loaded with its own risks ...
