Rory Stewart gives A fantastic TED talk on unconditional cash transfers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tt0HOe7gf7I How we can use our money to end extreme poverty in our lifetime. I love how Rory provides evidence for his claims, and four reasons that explain why cash works so well. I highly recommend the talk!

## Taking stock of one month of using Farcaster 1/2 - I've almost stopped journaling 😟 because I opened the Warpcast app instead of my journaling app before going to bed. - I'm overall spending more time on social media. There are some signs of unhealthy behavior, such as checking notifications for the dopamine. - I got a few good recommendations and tips, eg for Obsidian, Cursor, SrcBook, Zed. I feel pretty up-to-date on software development tools in particular. - I wrote four articles thanks to /firstdraft. These aren't exceptional, but I value them because they clarified my own thinking. It's unlikely that I would have taken so much time for them, without the FirstDraft writing club.

Any tips for onboarding to Farcaster? As a newbie here, it's tricky: - None of the people I know is around - Some accounts start following me and interacting, but that seems 100% automated/spam - my feed is a weird mix of mostly irrelevant things I guess it will get better... hints for speeding this up are highly appreciated
