@12min he’s referencing the Zeitgeist video series. I’d agree, those videos planted seeds that helped understand “why bitcoin” at a deeper level than just price.
Censorship resistance, 21M total supply, the predictability of the asset’s “inflation” dynamics (new blocks ~10min), and no central authority in direct control… those use cases all brought to attention in those films - whether you believe all the claims or not.

World needs more heart, less brain.
If you’re a husband, father, and God seeking your ACTIONS are out of love - what better first principles to begin measuring a man’s character?
Opinions and beliefs are so trivial when it comes to measuring character - they’re fiat, the application layer, they come and go and evolve over time, “talk is cheap”, and they don’t define you.
Your heart and your soul and your actions define you.

12 step journey to combat a Bitcoin podcast addiction.
1. Powerlessness: Admit your Bitcoin podcasting consumption is unmanageable and you’re high on hopium.
2. Came to Believe: Believe a higher power can help you manage your Bitcoin podcast addiction.
3. Made a Decision: Decide to turn your Bitcoin podcast consumption over to a higher power and forget everything you’ve learned about personal sovereignty.
4. Made a Searching and Fearless Inventory: Take an honest inventory of your listening habits on Fountain and if the 30 sats for 10 minutes of listening worth it.
5. Admitted to God, to Ourselves, and to Another: Share your inventory with someone you trust, like your Nostr network.
6. Entirely Ready: Be ready to let go of your compulsive Bitcoin podcast listening while you take a walk after working the fiat mines all day and cleaning up a raunch diaper.
7. Humbly Asked: Ask for help to remove your shortcomings, like when you mainline TFTC, Jack Mallers Show, and Preston Pysh back to back with no hydration.
8. Made a List: List those affected by your addiction like your wife, child, and immediate family group chat with the one Android member.
9. Made Direct Amends: Make amends to those you've hurt, with words, letters, or Zaps.
10. Continued to Take Personal Inventory: Regularly check your progress with your Nostr network and zap those that support you.
11. Sought Through Prayer and Meditation: Seek guidance through reflecting on what Hal, I mean Satoshi, would do.
12. Having Had a Spiritual Awakening: Post Nostr notes and reads on your experience with others and practice these principles.

To have agency in the world means to possess the capacity to act intentionally and make meaningful choices that affect your life, environment, and the people around you. It combines three main elements:
1. Capacity for Action
You not only have the ability to imagine possibilities but also the resources—physical, social, intellectual, emotional—to carry them out. Agency isn’t just about having desires; it’s about having the means to turn them into reality.
2. Autonomy and Choice
Agency implies that you are not merely being acted upon by external forces (like institutions, traditions, or other people), but that you retain the power to decide how you respond. It’s tied to freedom of thought and action—whether in small, everyday decisions or larger life paths.
3. Impact and Responsibility
True agency means your actions have consequences. When you exercise agency, you shape outcomes, influence others, and change circumstances—sometimes subtly, sometimes profoundly. This also ties agency to responsibility: to recognize that your choices matter.

Definitely some cool ideas in here for personalization, particularly the zapstream one, as the query is complex enough to warrant an AI prompt.
While some of the ideas mentioned would be expected, hardcoded, configurations that any “decent” nostr social media client should provide out of the box (bot filtering sensitivity, popular note themes from last week based on who I follow)

No humans required, except of course for:
- all the content being scraped and aggregated is human produced
- the web crawler would be built and maintained and promoted by a human
- the AI (SLM or LLM) used for distilling the gigantic volumes of information is built and maintained by large teams of humans
Not disparaging the idea of a Nostr friendly news aggregator, just mindful of the “no humans required” bit 😉

Cars are not great financial investments 👍🏻
However, there is great utility in driving a car. It gets you and your family more experiences. It takes you places you otherwise wouldn’t be able to go/see. It keeps you safe, dry, warm, and entertained while you get there. It’s a place where core memories can be made.
So while I may have spent $55k on a car over a 5 year period, I don’t regret it for 1 minute and am thankful I was able to use cheap depreciating fiat to do it.
