Is there anything better than cooking your kids organic fresh food? Sometimes that’s all you need to do in a day to know it was a success

What is the rise of AI going to do for book sales? If you can get the information you need, on demand, bespoke to whatever situation you’re in Why spend hours reading “around” the key point you need? I can think of one: enjoyment But the factual research we all do, why both? Surely this is going to drastically change things? I also imagine the barrier to entry as an author just got lower, given people who previously couldn’t articulate their thoughts into words, can now just ask an AI…

The way Bitcoin re-emphasises productivity, is one of its key value drivers in my view Being able to store your energy, skills, and work But in the physical world, productivity can be hard to measure One isn’t always paid for their most productive work Case in point: having kids and parenting Which from where I am sitting, you could argue is the most productive thing a person can do What am I missing?

In 30 years from now, what would you prefer to inherit: - a Nostr key pair? - a YT channel? - an IG account?

In the same way that Bitcoin, when looking 100 years from now, is the only store-of-value that I think makes sense Ie superior to Debt (Bonds), Equities (Companies), Gold (or other precious metals), Fiat (USD etc), or Collectibles (Fine art / classic cars) Is Nostr the equivalent for digital content? Ie you’re building on a open protocol (set of rules), rather than a platform (company) So in the same way that inflation is a huge risk for long term wealth management, store-of-value, then platform risk is a huge risk for content creators, as you’re always building on rented digital real estate (freedom of speech is not freedom of reach) All said: the best long term capital allocation for every content creator is Nostr Few understand this But some obvious benefits: - all the content you post is yours forever - it’s a backlog of “proof-of-work” that can be discovered at any time - in built micropayments for direct monetisation - as long as you keep your npub/nsec secure, it’s yours forever (imagine inheriting a fully developed and sophisticated Nostr account in 30 years time?) Questions: - what are the risks to the protocol? - will it be around in 100 years from now?

Not going to lie @Alby I've really struggled with Alby Hub, the migration from the previous wallet I seem to never be able to access Alby Hub without inputting the seed phrase So now have multiple accounts All pretty painful Makes me want to ditch using the service entirely

The internet, or at least the experience of the average user, has become a process of hoping from walled garden to walled garden Ie places where you’re just “renting”. Very similar to our friend Klaus WEF vision of “you’ll own nothing and be happy” Yes my life is better But could it be even better? I think yes What if the internet experience wasn’t dominated by the advertising model, ie monetising attention, but in fact the value-4-value setup Ofc this is what building on Bitcoin and Nostr is But I am thinking through what a Nostr focused media business might look like Will you still sell adverts? Or rather go totally audience funded? Mad stat from this thought process: Google search gets almost 100 billion monthly users But will search remain so important with the rise of AI? Equally, why would someone listen to a long-form podcast for education, when they can search exactly what they need on the spot with an AI? 🤔

Sometimes the most important thing in your day is actually just to rest
