Been working on this immersive realtime language tutor for Spanish built on top of nostr. A lot of people don’t know this but if you’re Hispanic and can’t speak Spanish well, folks tend to ridicule you. This has had terrible cultural consequences that push people away from their own culture. So it’s a genuine pain many Hispanics experience. I’ve come to accept that most Latino folks aren’t waking up and thinking “ah geez, I wish I knew how to code and build apps with AI.” But many do wake up and think their Spanish could be better. So far, that theory seems to be true. There is more genuine interest in getting their hands on this tool. A fun fact is that the #1 reason, by far, for learning Spanish is to connect with people. Think: being able to speak to your grandma, dating someone who’s Hispanic, etc.

I always find it kinda humorous when TikTok creators try to move to nostr for censorship resistance but end up leaving because they can’t generate impressions & followings that aren’t dependent on outrage & hate.

I've been using nostr for nearly two years and it's pretty much the only social platform where I haven't encountered hate. That's the ultimate success of a social space not dependent and incentivized by algorithms. God bless you all, even if you think differently than me.

So tired. So much work and so little resources. But with AI I can fry my mind indefinitely

The reason a social network takes off is because it's origin network proliferates in some way. For Nostr, it will be because of Bitcoin. I go on Facebook because my family and friends are there, I go on twitter to get a pulse on the news and I use nostr because the development of Bitcoin is important to me in some form or another. So price go up is kind of important, because if price go up, interest in nostr go up.

Gonna build an app to help no Sabos (Latinos that can’t speak Spanish) learn and practice Spanish with an AI voice call feature, inspired by Duolingo.

I feel like most startups these days only get seen because they’re venture backed. So some investors have a spreadsheet of startups, they pump it eventually by sharing it with their network, and then the market validates it because there’s money on the line. So the startup ultimately gets seen because there’s money on the line. But if you build tech products from your own pocket, it becomes a lot less likely to be seen regularly, depending on sales more than marketing.

I don’t see enough on how permissionless money restructures the internet and invents new ways to interact and create digital experiences. There are so many user experiences to be discovered beyond just owning your money. image

Added more gamification and aesthetic to my nostr based education app. The cashu wallet balance (which spends every time you answer a question to an edtech or your choice) is added as well. Check it out! It’s pleasing :’)

Coding on my phone with OpenAI’s codex is an underrated experience

I created a small supplementary micro app for my education platform built on top of nostr. It’s an app to help people focus, procrastinate less and accomplish their goals. Feedback on what would help you would be super duper appreciated

It's insane how much the quality of content on tiktok has dropped since 2020-2022

Not really a fan of calling web apps “micro apps” and “mini apps”
