I know I am behind on sats for syrup. Had a traditional start this year of last week in feb. (Last 4 years was early at 1st week in Feb.) I have had seasons last 6-8 weeks. This one is only 4, but the sap ran like crazy. 772 taps, around 7500 gal of sap collected, 149 gal of syrup. I had hard time keeping up. Sats for Syrup coming, my best year yet. Any new followers, I ran out last year in 4 months, get those bitcoin wallets ready. nprofile1qqsx8zd7vjg70d5na8ek3m8g3lx3ghc8cp5d9sdm4epy0wd4aape6vspz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduqs6amnwvaz7tmwdaejumr0dsq32amnwvaz7tmhda6zumn0wd68ytnsv9e8g7g9pux3g nprofile1qqsqfjg4mth7uwp307nng3z2em3ep2pxnljczzezg8j7dhf58ha7ejgprpmhxue69uhhqun9d45h2mfwwpexjmtpdshxuet5qyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2aqpr9mhxue69uhhxetwv35hgtnwdaekvmrpwfjjucm0d5klqft7 nprofile1qqsg8vu4lh5gtdmwhe6qvk9lx98fzs2df4htd7uj8y5h25477vduwmqpz3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wcq3xamnwvaz7tm0venxx6rpd9hzuur4vghszyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9ekxzmnyarquzg @

Be careful who you send sats to as there appear to be some fake accounts harvesting zaps from GM notes. If in doubt, check the account as they all share similar characteristics:

- they generally only engage with GM notes, replying with the same reply each time

- they don't post new notes themselves, just repost others to make them look more legitimate

- they have a small number of followers

- they have a generic name and simple one line bio (if at all)

- nostr.band shows that they have received sats but not sent any (or a very small amount)

- nostr.band shows many of them first became active around the same time, usually within the last couple of months

The new UUUUU protocol - “Unnotes and Unother Unstuff Untransmitted by Unrelays”. 🤣🤣🤣

Posting non-banger non-notes is underrated! 🤣

These are the things that keep me here and optimistic for the future of Nostr.

1. The friends you can make and the interesting, insightful conversations

2. Ownership and portability of your identity

3. No forced algorithms

4. Ecosystem of different interoperable apps

5. Developers who are passionate about building on this protocol

GM! Sunday morning farmer’s market. Much cooler 24°C day here today. Still no rain though. ☕️🫂💜

Upgraded my node to 0.12.0 this afternoon. Pretty straightforward process and no issues encountered. Thanks to @npub137c...k37w for the Dockerfile and for upgrading first so I knew mine would work!

A little hot right now 🥵

I’m happy to see most of these ports gone but I do want an ethernet port and a RS-232 serial port would be nice too.

“Blood moon” eclipse in November 2022 that was visible from here. #photography

The eclipse wasn’t visible from here and there was some light around but it was still a nice full moon.

We won’t get a good view of today’s “blood moon” eclipse here in Australia but there is a live stream from the US with a decent telescope and camera here: https://www.youtube.com/live/bhpNCsgqwBo

Helping to mentor new junior staff members at work can sometimes be difficult. It takes at least 5 times longer to show them how to do a task than if I just do it myself and a fair bit of patience having to explain the same thing several times.. There is still some satisfaction passing on knowledge I have built up over the years and helping them start out their career though.
