This helped me imagine a
- things that actually matter (nodes, miners, etc) dashboard of mempool.space's depth/quality
- that attracts normal people with detailed price stuff
Two goals today:
- study/design a system that I like for more hands-free programming while I'm sleeping or reviewing said system's output (and try to take notes so I can write a post titled "How to program in your sleep")
- openclaw is this for a lot of people I know, but tbh, while it's a super on-point prototype, it's a steaming mess
- taxes
I think (1) is where the hard part of making stuff is now. You build the factory that builds things now. Or, better, you build a factory that builds factories.
I feel like there is a need
I feel like there's a desire. I'm not sure about need. I could see stackers having their own bot maybe, like you could have a @Jon_Hodl_bot, and you can summon it when you want and get replies from it and other folks don't get notified by it.
Bots will be everywhere soon. Folks are already using them here. I suspect we'll all want a place to avoid them more than anything. Still they have utility. It's real tricky.
I loved how you kept time by block height! It helped me create a mental timeline and in a fun way.
They’re getting real merchants to show up, meetup members are branching out and learning new skills to sell for sats, and even many children are involved. Nicks daughter, only nine, makes 3D printed bitcoin accepted here signs and other trinkets and sells them at these markets. She’s well equipped to send and receive sats and loves collecting bitcoin. They each said the kids are big in numbers and are all generally really excited and capable to collect Satoshis, which is just wonderful. Bitcoiners making Bitcoiners.
We've tried to do this a few times in Austin but it never really stuck. It requires someone to organize it. Sounds like they have a great crew.
Bitcoin doesn’t promise to increase in fiat value forever. Bitcoin doesn’t know fiat exists. It promises to allow us to send a transaction over the internet peer to peer with a unit of account that has a finite supply. And that’s about it! It has never failed in those regards, so to call the project a failure among this little dip is just lost on me. I think this rhetoric is even hostile to bitcoin's purpose and is self-defeating. At this point we’re at block 937307 and the panel is about to start.

I was surprised you bothered to get one working. It sounded like you already had a bespoke system doing most of what anyone would get from openclaw.
For me, aside from how bloated and vibed together it is, it helped expose agent-system design. I had been neglecting it, and probably would have waited for some company to deliver some end-to-end experience. And, most of the end-to-end experiences are like "run it on our servers and we'll own/manage all your session memory without the ability to export."
I suspect the moat/lockin these companies seek is our session memory. At least, it's closest thing I've seen to something that might keep folks from switching.
