Hard Talking About Bitcoin With Simon Dixon. # 564

This year at Lake Satoshi, I think it's safe to say, the meshtadel truly went from concept to reality. From here on out, it's now about building it and making it stronger. I'm looking forward to more Bitcoiners joining us.

Excellent rip! Had a blast with you guys! Definitely something spiritual going on at Lake Satoshi. I hope to see that energy spreading to other meetups and areas

Calling all local Bitcoiners, you can pick up Otis Bitmeyer coffee direct at meetups in the Michigan meshtadel network! Come hang with me at The South Bend Indiana Bitcoin Meetup, the first Thursday every month at Lang Lab, 630pm. Learn something, earn something, share something, buy something, build relationships and resilience with local Bitcoiners.

Thank you friends

Thank you gentlemen

🎯 help you bring ideas into reality That's one thing I've struggled with, I've got lots of good ideas but I need assistance and assistants 🤭 to help me move forward to completion

What I would like to see more Nostr apps doing is hiding the fact that they are Nostr apps. Just obscure it away so normal people think it's a normal app, and not a power app. And let the features and usability make them a fan without them realizing it

Custom scripts for everybody! 🥳🥳

Ya there's definitely nothing wrong with waiting. 6 to 12 months from now it will be much more capable, and in order of magnitude easier to set up

I've been setting up mine to automatically log conversations. I've been feeding it all of my notes and business ideas. Everything gets automatically cataloged into obsidian. That obsidian vault is included in the QMD database for vector memory search. My agents have excellent short and long-term memory with minimal token usage. To set it up right, you really need to spend quite a while setting it up - or buy the files from somewhere. I've been setting up going on 3 weeks. It has already made me more productive. Soon my calendar will be synchronized. Client leads with automatically be filtered and surfaced front and center to me. The more you use something like this, the more you will start to understand how you can compound little abilities on top of each other. One cron job can trigger a cascade of events and work. I have used simplistic bots for many years. I used to have one that would pay my child support for me. That ran with no issues for about 5 years before they updated the site and broke my bot. I used to use another one for automatically populating descriptions and titles for an online store. At that time, I was replacing an employee with a simple bot. These things have been providing real value for people, for longer than people assume. Again it all comes down to how you use it and what you're doing with it. 6 to 12 months from now the landscape will be much different. Right now it's very hard to set up correctly and easy to burn money if you don't know what you're doing. But soon a lot of these things will be ironed out and much more normal people will be able to get higher value from it. On top of that, every time the models get better or cheaper, that means you can also upgrade your system to be smarter or cheaper.

I don't know who's spending $1,000 but you doing it wrong. I spent $15 in the past 3 weeks with more usage than I've ever had. It all depends on the model. But If they are also using it to do scraping and analyzing, it's not exactly simple work. And if you compare that to a human being doing the same work - that $1,000 is probably much cheaper than a human spending the time manually scraping and analyzing. I think I saw a graph recently saying that Claude opus outputs - in one prompt - between 5 and 15 hours of human work. Obviously that's not on every prompt, but that's pretty substantial even if it's expensive at a 30 cent API call, then maybe it's an extremely good deal. It's all very relative to what you're using it for and what your accomplishing in the end. Some of us have been playing with AI models for years already so we already know how to prompt better and we get better results. You've got to keep playing with different models - talk to them in different ways - and be explicit, try to remove ambiguity. And if you're having problems writing prompts - ask one AI to write a prompt for you to give to the other.. and that will often increase your chance of a one shot successful prompt

Thank you gentlemen

I got to meet Fundamentals and do a quick interview for the My First Bitcoin documentary in Prague last week. I’ve listened to every Rock Paper Bitcoin episode since @npub1phvflpwfk… put me onto them last year. These guys are pioneers. Onward!

Thank you gentlemen

Banger 🧨🧨 Pure signal

🫡🍻

Thank you gentlemen

Thank you gentlemen

If @npub12eml5kmtr… is a credentialed journalist, @npub1563z6kxmv… should hire him. Hope everyone appreciates this episode as much as I do.

Good content for pioneers

Fiber internet is getting installed next week. Moving forward, all podcast recordings from the homestead will sound fantastic!

I will make a correction - bitchat was mentioned. I overheard somebody asking somebody else if they want to try it. It sounded like a group of two or three people were going to try it at Lake Satoshi

Rev.Hodl da man, we need more people like him 🧨🧨🧨

Karl is the real Rev 😏

To me this discussion is about how to apply permaculture to your social capital and reputation. The importance and value of this is increasing as the extractive cultures fail and the new ones emerge. #40hpw

Thank you gentlemen

The process of succession is what this episode is about to me. There are prerequisites that must be met for the system to move to the next phase of its maturity.

I love the idea that if the mission to the moon was a failure they were ready to fake it. That makes a lot of sense as there is so much evidence suggesting both are true. We went to the moon and we also faked it.

It’s a great day when Rock Paper Bitcoin drops. My favorite bitcoin podcast. These guys will be massive when more plebs graduate to the pioneer status.

Lol thank you gentleman

Tha m you gentleman

There's a regional Bitcoin meetup on Nov 6th-8th at the Drury inn in Grand Rapids. 10191429 This is the code for discounted rooms. The code doesn't work on the app but works online. The Drury inn serves breakfast and dinner. They also give you 3 free alcohol drinks with dinner. So Friday well have dinner and drinks. Saturday breakfast and dinner with drinks. Sunday Breakfast. We'll figure out lunch on Saturday depending on how many people show up. This event is family friendly. So bring your family and let's get a ton of Bitcoiners to hang out and network. Be there!!!

Thank you gentlemen

Thanks for everything you do with advertising pleb stuff man. I've known Rev.Hodl for a while and just went to his Permaculture class and it was awesome! Highly recommended! Really great experience and the food was out of this world. Side note: we need some kind of Nostr Nip for Rating People/Places/Events 🤔 Rating Sellers/Items/Marketplaces 🤔

Thank you sir

Thank you gentlemen

Shadrach is taking things to the next level. What I've noticed is that a few dedicated and hardworking individuals can build networks much larger than anyone could assume. Join us, participate, and if you're gonna build look to Shadrach for inspiration. This episode is a must listen!

Thank you gentlemen 🤝

Congratulations man! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Congratulations fellow Sir. What an accomplishment. Thank you

Oh yeah

🍻 cheers on 1111

Thank you sir

Thank you gentleman

Rock, Paper, Bitcoin is an essential pod for your #40hpw. Always high signal!

No dicks in ass 🫡

Clunk Clunk, nukka 🍻

Thank you gentlemen.

Great to meet you sir, hope to see you next year 🫡🍻

In many ways the vibe at lake satoshi is still getting more mature, it seems like it has a couple more years before it becomes fully ripe. Ripe enough to start attracting the pests that spoil the fruit. For now, the meshtadel is acting as a beacon and guiding light for those who want to take control of what Bitcoin can do to empower them and focus on what they are here to do. Instead of the band proving that unification and propagation of cultural capital, it's just the aggregate of all of us showcasing the results when you wield the power of Bitcoin to amplify your true purpose.

Lake Satoshi soooooon!🧨🧨🧨

Thank you gentlemen

Great show. Thank you for the amazing investigative journalism

Bitcoin And... Has the new that you can use, #40hpw. Thank you, sir.

Many pioneers will find themselves in ghost towns, unfortunately. Permaculture can help avoid ghost towns with these three principles: creativity use and respond to change, self regulate accept and apply feedback, value diversity.

Good content

Thank you gentlemen

Thank you gentlemen

LFG🍻

Thank you gentlemen

Proof of #40hpw on onlyboosts.com. Keep em coming!

After several years of continuing to reduce my participation in the fiat system, those who have stuck with me have given up on trying to drag me back into the system. They still don't really understand what the ideals I'm striving for though.

Extraction creates disconnection, unification is love, consensus governance is unification, Bitcoin is loving. To stop participating in extraction and to more deeply participate in unification, is how Bitcoin fixes this.

Thank you gentlemen

Thank you again gentlemen

So much food for thought in this episode. Definitely holds the mirror up for ones own self evaluation of their sincerity and integrity when trying to live a Bitcoin integrated lifestyle. Spiritual capital was also a big topic of discussion which is refreshing. What is a bitcoiner anyway? #40hpw #valuechain

Thank you gentlemen

All Bitcoin transactions are data, the time chain stores data.

What looks like a modern physics podcast suddenly becomes a sly roundabout transmission of anthroposophy.

Thank you sir.

A shining example of why this is one of the best Bitcoin podcasts out there. Deep thoughts continue long after listening.

Let's get down to business (😼)

Thank you gentleman

🍻

Thank you, sir. The South Bend Indiana Bitcoin Meetup is celebrating 1 year on Thursday September 4th at Lang Lab 630. Come celebrate with us!

Thank you sir

Lake Satoshi is the meshtadel realized but it all starts with local Bitcoiners. I'm going keep the Lake Satoshi energy flowing as long as possible! Come hang with me at The South Bend Indiana Bitcoin Meetup, the first Thursday every month at Lang Lab, 630pm. Learn something, earn something, share something, buy something, build relationships and resilience with local Bitcoiners. Let the Lake Satoshi vibe continue on!

Y'all we're up on the hill so often I didn't even see Debbie Tammy

Jon's children didn't test me on my math skills this year 🤣 last year they put me in school and gave me math tests...😑🤔 Pretty sure Jon had something to do with it haha

Unofficial, official count 400 to 450 attendees

The deeper fiat infiltrates into the lives of the people, the more their cultural capital is eroded. It is our responsibility to rebuild culture in a way which it does not succumb to this plight again.

Whoop whoop!

Thank you gentleman
