Pilled a restaurant and also let them use my infrastructure. Populating BTCmap one store at a time takes time but that is one basic building block of adoption.

Cool camera 📸

I love these 2024-era Midjourney images with their poetic touch

This is a seriously good drawing (with and without Bitcoin)

Is obsidian walking the blackberry path? It seems to do everything I need except allowing me to run the server side on my own hardware. Am I missing something?

In every new encounter we have the choice of using our intellect and experience to "defeat" the other, or we can use them to find creative solutions together 🍀.

Just ask the dude to sensibly quatify the two instances of "so" to see the smoke and mirrors.

Was thinking about "logic" in biology while reading Nick Lane's book "Power, Sex, Suicide" (ignore the catchy title; it's a great book). Not every logic applied by someone who studies nature is automatically bio-logic. In summary and retrospect, I would say that most of the logic I have used in my years in biology was math, physics, or engineering logic. Very little was truly bio-logic. Nick Lane, by contrast, argues very logically that bacterial design prevented them from growing and evolving the complexity of the higher organisms that surround us today. What I am trying to say is this: determine and address the root question (challenge) in what you do as early and as rigorously as possible.

I have been driving a Tesla Model 3 for 5 years (bought it right after Tesla announced it had added Bitcoin to its balance sheet). A great car, very reliable. But I wonder why Tesla would constantly nag you about driving a little bit too fast, breaking a little too late (like having grandma on the passenger seat), or watching something else for 5 seconds when you are alone on the road, _and_ refusing to re-activate the USD 7k full-self-driving package after ignoring their nanny advice for a few times (happened to a friend). All this while Elon is spearheading sovereignty and free speech. Drove a Taycan the other day just to see that all the nanny functions can easily be switched off using the standard user interface.

Merry Christmas. I am proud of the Bitcoiners—an incredible story. The future is bright, no matter what many soon-worthless dollars you currently get for your satoshis. Christmas is about shared values, joint work, and a shared story. Sounds familiar?

It's funny to see people reposting Jack's notes with almost anyone following Jack in the first place.
