Hard to say the true intention, but the article says: “The money drop was apparently the last wish of the owner of a nearby car wash. Knife said the man recently died due to Alzheimer's Disease and his funeral was Friday.”

In the same vein, I need to get on a “no morning email” grind. I waste my best energy hours of the day on such a low value task

Has there been any actual progress since the whole yarvin reorg? Urbit is something I *want* to love, but have to snap myself out of it because I can’t afford to spend my time playing around with a platform nobody uses Every time I check up on the project I get the feeling “this is never going to happen”

This was fun to think about! Although for the construction analogy, I always thought the permit / regulations were more for human safety, less for business practices (which ideally get dealt with through market forces?) Maybe that’s too charitable

Soccer is the summer is great. Getting exercise, sun, being social... So much better than the winter. The rec league I play indoors has an attached bar overlooking the field. All of the calories I burn during the game came back in the form of beers afterwards

https://farcaster.xyz/dwr.eth/0x478c264d > When asking why people aren't inviting their friends to Farcaster, the overwhelming reason is they spend most of their time on TikTok / Instagram / YouTube (no X / Twitter). 1. If those friends spend most of their time on TikTok/IG or YouTube, are they going to find compelling content on Farcaster? IIRC Snapchat Spotlight struggled hard with getting a critical mass of video-content-for-normal-people, huge creator incentives and it still didn't work very well (considering I never hear Spotlight mentioned as a platform in these discussions). Even IG Reels was trash for a long time while they dialed in their algorithm + video content, and they were starting from a much better base. X generally seems like the closest comp, and it's full of garbage reposts from the other platforms (as well as obvious algo bait... Feels like every other month I start seeing people literally dying on video and I have to block a new wave of accounts) 2. Is there even an incentive to invite your friends? - Do you get social clout from [providing value] by getting them on Farcaster? - Is there some novel, desirable form of consumption that they will enjoy? - Or can you do something *with* them on Farcaster that you can't do anywhere else? I don't see clear answers for these, but tbh sports betting seems like a promising direction. It's a good segue from crypto-gamblers -> normie gamblers -> normal people, and has a lot of cool UX opportunity w/ crypto rails 3. I'm curious what niches the "investment" in video is going to target. 4. I have tons of respect what the Farcaster team has built so far. Building a social platform from scratch seems insanely hard and I admire their execution

As someone who stepped back in to Farcaster last week, I have no idea what the difference is between $DEGEN, Noice, $PRO, etc.. which one should I care about? Also, it has to be said, the name "DEGEN" is completely anti-normie. There's so much cognitive friction already in learning the crypto words and Farcaster-isms, let alone asking prospective users as to label themselves as "degens"

I bookmark casts and tweets for the same reason I have 1,000 browser tabs: My gatherer-brain is in scavenge mode, and thinks it might get value out of it later. Unfortunately it’s 100x easier to keep gathering than it is do to the value making

Does it have the shift+click for Peek yet? I didn’t realize how much I used that in Arc until I tried out Zen like a year ago and immediately switched back

I hopped on the other night. It gives me that crackhead “just one more” dopamine I get from Rocket League

I don't have any passkeys / password manager set up on that device, so definitely could be why... 🤷‍♂️

This is mostly where I'm at, but closer to: like with blockchain, not everything needs to a blockchain feels like projects just tack on "powered by zk" to sound legitimate / cutting edge

I tried their example on iOS and it seems like you need an entirely separate device to scan/2FA the QR code? We still got a long way to go 😔
