#[0]​ you’ve made an incredible amount of money in software and you do not seem to let it get to your head. I wondered if you had any insights on making the amount of money that you’ve made, how to keep a level head, and what you’ve found matters most to you in life now that you’re free from excessive toil? I would also love some advice as someone pursuing my own tech company, an engineer who’s been coding for years. Is there something that you just “get”? Is the secret to stay in the creative process and hold to a vision? Would you be willing to share any insights ?

#Spez doing an AMA now on #reddit I can’t see how this will go wrong. https://reddit.com/r/reddit/comments/145bram/addressing_the_community_about_changes_to_our_api/

So long to #Apollo app. Reddit needs to go down with the ship. They are where they are because of the community and not because of their superior online forum. They used the community until they could drop them. The #FOSS community should create a competitor. https://reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/144f6xm/apollo_will_close_down_on_june_30th_reddits/

Would love to see a similar protocol to #nostr for forums. #Reddit tanking their API today is going to drive a lot of people looking elsewhere. While I am a Software Engineer, I am nowhere near the giants in the open source space. I would love to help or contribute to anyone doing such a thing if it exists.

Good Evening #Nostr. I hope everyone had a productive day.

You are not deserting the poor in their misery when you refuse to allow your mind to be filled with pictures of that misery. Poverty can be done away with, not by increasing the number of well-to-do people who think about poverty, but by increasing the number of poor people who purpose with faith to get rich. The poor do not need charity; they need inspiration. Charity only sends them a loaf of bread to keep them alive in their wretchedness, or gives them an entertainment to make them forget for an hour or two; but inspiration will cause them to rise out of their misery. If you want to help the poor, demonstrate to them that they can become rich, prove it by getting rich yourself.

Good morning, #Nostr!

Was finally able to setup my own #umbrel relay for #nostr. Was incredibly easy to do. Next step: #Lightning Node.
