coffee

had a wild latte today made with beans from a roaster in Amsterdam called Dak.

this particular roast (“banana split”) uses beans from Colombia and a mixed fermentation process, around 170hr with pineapple/banana microbes + yeast.

the banana note is so real and vivid that it almost tastes like you added a flavoured syrup to your drink. mind-altering and delicious.

Portnoy got me wondering. How many lawyers do we have on the purple app? I only know me and @nounishprof but surely there’s a ton more?

strong opinion, somewhat strongly held:

i don’t fw elon’s emerging “sperm donor” persona. it’s a luxury belief in action. 

he pushes pronatalism, but his $$ lets him offload and opt out of the hands-on parenting that is good for kids.

we shouldn’t normalize absentee fathers. same goes for Kardashians.

Do you think Farcaster found product market fit?

If not - why?

@matthewb @ted these are great ideas

my biggest question would be: why should someone do this on Farcaster vs. where there are typically rich communities around niches elsewhere? 

related: how can we support this happening generally? how can we get people to do this without turning each channel (inevitably) into a product, a token, a whatever

I love products and tokens but this (should?) be natural, social, if boosted or encouraged a bit by people in the network

@atlas what do you think can be farcaster's niche when there are already many established online communities on reddit, X, instagram, telegram, etc.?

jk I think warpcast is caching per user?

test https://orbiter.host

Ok here's the site with v2 support. @horsefacts.eth and @deodad kinda janky having it be cached per user? Unless that's not what's happening.

I’m into making clothing, there are cool niche communities around that in the most random places. 

Most of my friends who are academics or writers hang out at certain bars, on parts of twitter, instagram 

Niches form naturally, but why here? Trying to get past that cold start issue because I don’t post about my niche hobbies here, it’d get worse engagement

I get much better engagement on purple app when posting about my niche interests, perhaps because tastemaking is scarce in a “tech” context vs. IG which is much more dominated by creatives, artists, designers, etc.

not sure that I have the perfect answer to why this type of niche maxxing should grow on FC, but I suspect that every acct having a wallet and being able to use frames/bots creates the conditions for a creator economy to thrive sustainably.
