I just used NotebookLM for the first time to do some schoolwork with my son.
We used three photos that we took of his school worksheets.
And what can I say?
• a 21-minute podcast
• a quiz
• a video
• a PowerPoint presentation
School teaching has never been easier.
We all should use #AI. Mindblowing!

Ah, thank you!
I was wondering if you were joking about how expensive RAM is these days.
I’ve just ordered a Mac Studio with 64 GB.
I’m really looking forward to experimenting with my local AI setup.
I had never written a single line of code until last week. Now I’m building small games with my sons. Incredible!

Serious question. I’m just a simple pleb who wants to broadcast my transactions through my own node. All this drama around Core 30 / Knots is a bit over my head, and I don’t really feel the need to dig into it in detail. Can’t I just keep running version 28.x and wait it out?
Would there be any disadvantages to that?

I’m incredibly grateful that I found Bitcoin.
Bitcoin gives me inner peace.
I’ve always been interested in the stock market and in technology. I didn’t buy the very first iPhone back then — I got the 3Gs, because for me it was the first one that actually made sense: it allowed you to go online via mobile data.
At university, I was especially interested in economics, even though I studied business administration.
Bitcoin introduced me to an entirely new branch of economic thought — the Austrian School of Economics.
Bitcoin also led me to a new philosophy — Stoicism.
Bitcoin taught me how important decentralization, freedom of speech, and freedom as a whole truly are.
I didn’t buy Bitcoin when I first read about it — that came much later. Do I regret it? Not at all. Why? Because back then it felt too complicated. I simply wasn’t ready yet.
Bitcoin, to me, is simply wonderful.
Thank you Satoshi!

As the Stoics would say, #nature follows its course with patience and resilience. Much like #Bitcoin, whose beauty lies not only in its complexity but in its ability to endure and evolve, untouched by fleeting desires or fears. Both are testaments to a system greater than us, governed by principles rather than emotions.

I just watched the video from @npub1rxy…hnp8 , and it's amazing how he echoes my thoughts—4 years before I even had them! 😂 I'm going to test this out by putting my budget for variable monthly expenses on a credit card that automatically converts #Bitcoin to euros when I make a payment.

Thanks for the suggestion! Currently, I plan my fixed costs from my salary first. Then, I save a set amount in Bitcoin, and what’s left for living expenses covers my variable costs—like food, wine, gifts for the kids, etc.
I would use a card like you described for those expenses. Of course, this would only work as long as the price doesn’t crash. If it does, I’d have to stick to fiat for my variable costs.

2024-08-30 12:27:44 UTC

I’m considering whether it makes sense to convert my monthly budget for variable expenses into sats on e.g. Bitpanda and then spend them with their credit card. #asknostr Currently, I use a regular credit card for my monthly expenses. This way, if the price drops, I can consume less that month, and if it rises, I increase my purchasing power.
My savings in #Bitcoin, of course, go into cold storage regardless. I’d love to hear opinions on this approach!

Had a long conversation yesterday with a good friend who's self-employed in the consulting industry. He’s in a tough spot right now—his company is going through a transition, and he has limited #liquidity. He also has a self-occupied home that he’s still paying off.
I’m really grateful that I chose not to invest in a self-occupied property. Instead, I prefer the flexibility of renting and saving in #Bitcoin. It allows me to avoid the stress of #mortgage payments while still having the #freedom to adapt to changing circumstances.
It’s a reminder that financial choices can shape our paths in unexpected ways. Wishing him the best as he navigates this challenging phase!

I've been thinking for years about whether I should make the trip from Europe to attend one of the big Bitcoin events in the US. It would definitely cost me a pretty penny in Sats to do that. Is it really worth it, or would I be better off just continuing to stack sats instead?
I have to weigh whether the value of being there in person and soaking up that atmosphere would justify the expense. Would I gain enough new knowledge, connections, and inspiration to make it pay off in the long run? Or is it smarter to take that same investment and put it straight into growing my Bitcoin stack?
It's a tough call. I'd be curious to hear from anyone who's made the trip before - was it worth it for you? Or do you think the online content and virtual events can provide most of the same benefits without the big travel costs? I'm on the fence, but leaning towards saving those Sats for now. What do you think is the better move?

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to the nostriches for the incredibly positive feedback on my post. Your kind words and support mean more to me than you know.
It's so refreshing to be part of a community that values positivity, mutual understanding, and lifting each other up. The welcoming and constructive atmosphere on nostr has been such a welcome change from the negativity I was experiencing elsewhere online.
Thank you for creating a space where I feel comfortable being my authentic self and sharing my thoughts and feelings in the future. The encouragement I've received has given me a much-needed boost and inspired me to continue being more intentional about the content I consume and the digital spaces I inhabit.

I've been spending too much time on x lately, and I've noticed that the posts there have become overwhelmingly negative. Constantly seeing that kind of content isn't good for my mental health.
That's why I've decided I'm going to start spending more time on nostr instead. I want to fill my mind with more positive and uplifting content. Nostr feels like a healthier space where I can interact with people and discover new ideas without all the negativity.
It's important to be selective about the online spaces we inhabit and the information we consume. Protecting our mental wellbeing should be a priority. I'm looking forward to a more positive online experience on nostr.
