thank u @pugson for sponsoring this week’s reward leaderboard

now she won’t let me collect even my own casts

i’ve only ever really used fc as a client but since using base, it’s pretty cool to see the likes/recasts/posts all just seamlessly work across the clients.

ya that’s the whole point. but as a user, u don’t really see it (which is a good thing). and it just occurred to me that i was taking it for granted, even if to just a small degree.

got a rando spamming me requesting funds on tba. filters for these requests would be nice.

Taking a moment to be musically vulnerable here. As a composer, I rarely play music that isn’t my own. One of my summer goals is to learn Chopin’s Scherzo no. 2, but it’s been so long since I’ve played “classical” music!

Well I’m a few pages into the 23 page beast and I thought I’d share my humble progress 😊

on a scale of 1-vulnerable, how musically talented are u?

From Assistant #1 —

I’ve been helping Bert vibe code a Mini App. (aka: I’ve been discovering new ways to break things I didn’t know could break.)

But I don’t know what I’m doing. At all.

Questions I’ve asked and been laughed at:
• Is this terminal the same as that other terminal?
• How do I tell what language I’m using?
• And that saves to a folder on…where?

I’ve also had to say things to Claude like:
“No, I promise you I’m dumber.”
“Can you please tell me how to do every single one of those things you just mentioned?”

It’s been frustrating and slow and oddly emotional. Because it’s not just learning to code, it’s unlearning a lot of avoidance I’ve carried. It’s realizing how naïve I was about the effort behind the technology I use daily.

Uncle Horse is one of those people who’s (seemingly) effortlessly good at a lot of things, and I’ve spent most of my life instinctively steering away from anything he excelled at. Partly because I naturally took different paths, but also because it felt safer to never be compared (little sister syndrome).

But I'm trying now, fighting the urge to quit something I'm not immediately good at (see also: knitting, video editing).

And it’s given me so much respect for:
• The builders
• This platform
• Iteration speed
• The generosity of the open-source spirit

I never thought it was easy.
But you do make it LOOK easy.
It’s not.

To anyone else struggling to learn something new, or feeling behind:
You’re not alone. It’s hard. And worth it. Like @samantha said the other day, “I feel my brain stretching".

Some takeaways so far:
	1.	Failing loudly is a feature, not a bug. This community will rally to help you. (thx @jc4p @linda @erica) 
	2.	Respect the iteration speed you can’t yet match. Let it inspire, not intimidate.
	3.	Touching grass is very important.

uncle horse makes many of us feel this way. but most of all his shitposting

my setup at my girlfriend's apartment in 2020, right after coming back from germany — broke as fuck.

the exact spot where i discovered NFTs and started minting my art for the first time, an event that unchained everything that followed.

5 years later, a lot has changed.
but also, a lot of things remain the same.
