my friend built a tool that lets you create a timestamped mind map of all subjects discussed in the podcast episode. i asked him to add the @bankless episode about crypto in argentina, and it looks useful :) https://lumenigo.com/bankless ps: if someone would like to use it, i can connect you with the friend!

I sometimes think that Eric Weinstein is crazy but he's for sure one of the most original thinkers out there. Most mind-bending podcast episode I listen to in 2024 https://youtu.be/PYRYXhU4kxM?feature=shared

You realize that being a doctor is just a profession, and just like there are good and bad developers, plumbers, or lawyers, the same applies to doctors. That's why, when you get into your 30s, you should look for 10x doctors.

used coinbase for the first time in years because wanted to check USDC on Base off-ramp and it doesn't let me add my bank details to cash out EUR - it only lets me add Coinbase bank to send money in. it is happy, however, to offer a 'small' €21.30 fee for getting that to my debit card 🤡

I used to think that bots on Farcaster were problematic because of spam, but it's bigger than that. If I respond to a bot, I feel like an idiot who wasted his time building a connection with a ChatGPT wrapper. It makes me suspicious of new users, and I tend to respond primarily to people I already know. This means that it's harder for genuine new users to build relationships on the network. It could be fine for social *media*, but it's bad for the social *network*. What would be the ways to mitigate that?

Prediction for today's debate and next steps: Trump will win by a huge margin, and we will see some of that reflected in the polls. And the longer this campaign will run, the bigger his advantage over Kamala will get.

Some thoughts on Sign in with Farcaster after our hackathon project with @timdaub.eth & @pmuens.eth: 1) It's already a 10X better log-in that Sign in with Ethereum. 2) Thanks to Farcaster social graph, your app can easily get first users. 3) But it also felt a bit as a step back when it comes to monetization as it added more friction. 4) With crypto wallets your users' identity & funds are bundled, which means your app is always one click away from making money - bug (if the app is a scam) and a feature (if the app is legit). 5) With SIWF your users sign in with their identity, and then - if they want to spend money - they have to connect their wallets, which adds one, bad UX step to the process. 6) Would be interesting to see some Farcaster <> Wallets integration where I can let Farcaster signer spend up e.g., to $10 from my Rainbow wallet. 7) Maybe could be done with some adaptation of delegate cash?
