Been making a homemade electrolyte drink as a replacement for LMNT. Super simple and tastes great.
Combine and shake:
- 3 cups filtered water
- 1 juiced orange
- 1 juiced lemon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 tablespoons raw honey

Running qwen3.5:122b locally this morning to see how it feels compared to the latest models from Anthropic.
I’m parsing a code base that is unfamiliar to me and it is working fast and seems to be fairly accurate in its responses.
Cool to think you can leverage these tools when you don’t have internet.

Really stoked to reach this milestone with Clams!

Cheers to everyone who provided feedback on Clams over last year, it really helped us to shape this release. Check it out!

Couple of workarounds I have found:
1. Credit cards that charge no currency conversion rates
2. With Wise (formerly transfer wise) you can spin up euro account and switcheroo some of your dollars to euros with very low fees. I had an Aussie bank account when I visited there for a month with wise. Pretty handy as you have a debit card as well.
As for bitcoin fixing this- I think strike has done a good job of reducing the cost of conversion from one fiat to another- but this still means you need a bank account that will hold euros

Yup. If you sign a PSBT with one key and drop it into Sparrow - it does exactly this- verifies that first signature and prompts you to sign the PSBT with one of the other two keys.

In Portugal, if you receive bitcoin as payment, hodl for a year, then there is no cap gains. Adoption has really taken off. Small businesses are happy to take some bitty for some portion of their sales- and then plan to hodl for at least a year. I heard multiple stories- but one stood out about a dentist that was offering discounts if people pay in bitcoin. He did the math and it made sense to him to do this. Would love to see cap gains ditched altogether.

Been perfecting my raw ice cream recipe. Here is my new favorite, salted chocolate:
- 1 cup of raw milk
- 1 cup of raw cream
- 4 egg yolks
- 6 tablespoons of raw honey
- 4 tablespoons of raw cacao
- 4 pinches of sea salt
Throw it all in a blender, and into your ice cream maker. Killer.

I had a similar experience recently. Friend did a bunch of interviews with potential users of his product. Maybe had 40 hours of audio. Normally he makes detailed notes on this and presents it to the company. But instead he ran it through an AI service that generated a 45 min podcast discussing the big takeaways from all of the interviews. The quality of it blew my mind. I legit couldn’t tell that it wasn’t real. Very very convincing. And ultimately an incredible time saver.

We don’t have the option to create a file for TurboTax but the capital gains export (free while we are in beta) should be all you need- provided TurboTax has option to just punch in a cap gains number?
We have been asked for an export for quickbooks- but never for TurboTax. I’ll look into it.
Most users (we assume) just export the cap gains report and hand it to their accountant.

I was talking to a chap from Egypt recently and it came up. He said that no one talks about how there are hundreds of failed attempts to build pyramids there- and that if those were studied more then it would be more clear how they built them. An interesting perspective I had never heard before.
