I am in Baltimore for a couple days for a wedding. It’s cold here. If I have time one morning or afternoon, what should I do? What is the staple food of this town? Do they have any nice pizza? Thanks

I spoke with @df for episode #21 of the Purple People podcast. We talked a lot about the evolution of frames and Farcaster at large, building mini-apps, and the launch of @larrybot. Hope you enjoy. Apple: bit.ly/4216oxI Spotify: bit.ly/4acADUz Mint: pods.media/purple-people/21-df

I do feel the higher arrow should be added. I understand it’s a slippery slope. But I do believe it’s justified.

How many unique reactions are there on Warpcast? I’m talking about the degen hat, the rainbow logo, the GM, and any others that swap in for the like icon.

Nice colors. I wonder how many of them have been minted on basecolors.com.

Was coaching basketball practice today and heard the coach of another team cursing his head off at his players (high schoolers). What a bad look. Dropping F bombs left and right like that. If I hear it again I might go ask him why he’s cursing so much. I don’t think I would need to ask him to stop, nor would it be my place to do so. It’s his team. But I bet if I just asked him why, he’d stop cursing as much as a result of being made more aware of it, and probably not coming up with a super sensible response to my question. Either that or he’d curse me out.

Very wide variance on my casts recently. In terms of the subject matter I mean. And to some degree the style. I don’t think that’s a good strategy for engagement purposes. But it what I like to do. The internet rewards people who stick to a niche, I know. Problem is I have a lot of different thoughts about a lot of different things and I’m not too eager to only share some of them from one area and none of them from the others just for the sake of engagement. In some sense the way I do it is the ultimate niche because it’s the unique combination of all of my interests. But that’s not the kind of niche that does well on the internet. It has to be more legible than that. Simple and quick to download. “Oh yea, he’s the ______ guy.” Some people even self-identify that way in their bio, “The ______ Guy.” A bit cringy to me but to each their own and I respect the hustle. Imagine that on a tombstone “The ______ Guy.” What an oversimplification of a complex human being that would be.

First time watching the Cavs this season. Can see how they’re 32-4 (an insane record against nba teams regardless of how great you are). It occurred to me that it would actually be a perfect situation for LeBron if he could orchestrate one last trade to get there. They have 2 great guards and 2 great bigs.

Literal liquidity and practical liquidity are different. Literal means you can click a button to sell. You can do that with BTC. You can’t do that with a house. Practical liquidity considers when it is not only possible but also practical to sell. Bear markets historically comprising about 3 of every 4 years, crypto could be considered the most literally liquid asset but not practically liquid most of the time, because most of the time it would be pretty obviously unwise to sell. S&P is somewhere in between on both. It’s not open 24/7 everyday but 6.5 hours per day on non-holiday weekdays you can sell with the click of a button, pretty literally liquid. And also pretty practically liquid as it takes a much less volatile path than crypto on average and if you suddenly need money for something it’s probably not a terribly bad time to sell, it might not be ideal, but it’s probably not going to be down more than 10-20% from the highest you’ve held it. Both literal and practical worth considering.

The 80/20 approach applied to most crypto apps says don’t worry about the web UX. Most crypto apps are getting around 80% mobile users as far as I’ve seen.
