Buy something real, from someone real. Artisanal crafts with proof of work. Knife artisan since the age of 7, Misael handcrafts machetes and chef’s knives with flawless edges and ergonomic handles, using reclaimed Puerto Rican woods. His work pays tribute to the island’s rural legacy by transforming everyday tools into lasting pieces of cultural art. Auction must hit $500 (market value of $750 but ill personally cover the rest and shipping) Misael Fernández Rodríguez Naranjito, Puerto Rico

If you have a machine that can answer most any question, then what is left? Creative problem formulation?

The double quote in this app is probably one of the most underrated features imo

The best square packing for 17 is a good reminder that optimization (efficiency) can look quite clunky and unintuitive.

Would be a shame if your posts about LLM shortcomings were actually just a mirror of your communication skills and context management

Would be good to measure net-new participants bidding / winning vs. the 10k usuals

Going to run an experiment today / this week likely. Auction physical artisanal crafts for Puerto Rico via casts. We’ll have professional photography of the craft, a short video of the artisan, and the winning auction will get shipped the craft (US only likely for now, but open to international via DM request) Example video of hand-sculpted wooden roosters. Still in discussion of the right craft but might post one per day to gauge interest. https://youtu.be/gI16DsZ6Mvg?feature=shared

I think the embedded auctions would be better if you could differentiate between the post announcement and the asset itself.

Would be great if Farcaster allowed for private-shipping-address so then we could do native auctions on physical goods. Full on-feed commerce.

LLMs are mostly great because ads haven’t crowded its interfaces yet. The browser / websites are mostly ruined and chat overlays remove that friction to find information.
