I just saw something about silent payments in Bitcoin for the first time. This legit? #AskNostr https://m.primal.net/IHCu.png

#asknostr - I recently drained my Phoenix wallet to a Mutiny browser wallet. I was my first time using @npub1mut…23vg and I connected the wallet to my Nostr private key. Since I was at my shop, I decided to wait until I got home to write down my seed words. I assumed when I logged back in with my Nostr key it would load the same wallet, so I closed my browser. Did I lose my funds???

I imagine a future where a significant percentage of families will have a family compound that stays in the family for generations and everyone knows this belongs to the whole family and we’re never selling and that way everyone in the family will have a place to stay during hard times if needed, and everyone can keep that as their government address so the government doesn’t know where they really live.

You must have sick margins if you’re offering a 25% discount! But yeah I think strike would be easiest if the ticket price is low enough because I think they have limits on how much you can buy and send at a time.
I’ve been offering a 5% discount for the last 2 years and no one has taken me up on it. For right now I’m just accepting the fact that bitcoin adoption is not there yet.

Business owners and sales people: good leads WANT YOU TO FOLLOW UP. I work with a lot of residential contractors and most of them see uninvited follow ups as being rude or pushy, and that mindset prevents them from closing sales.
This was an interaction I had this morning (Wednesday). https://image.nostr.build/9219b504345d70fc5f031aaf4edab7a37613cd5fc2d58669f0e8e2b253228269.jpg

The concept of “under-promise and over-deliver” is a valuable skill.
I have caught myself over-promising on many occasions in the past. I will get better at this.

2023-08-20 17:58:29

Learn to trust your gut. If something feels off, do not move forward. Put in the effort to make sure what you're about to do is right and the best you can do.
If you move forward on something and it turns out wrong, the pain and effort to fix it will be 100x worse than the initial effort it would have taken to get it right the first time.

I have found it helpful to do intense time tracking on my work activities for about 2 weeks and about twice per year.
It helps me realize what I haven’t been putting enough time into, what is taking too much time, what my most valuable activities are, and how valuable my activities are. When I look back at the data at the end of the 2 weeks, I can make a plan to gain more leverage on my time.
For business owners, this can be especially valuable with your employees to gain insights for training purposes. It can also sometimes reveal pricing issues with your services.

Pros and Cons of putting your marketing efforts toward direct response advertising vs building and nurturing your referral network
Direct Response Pros: can target a single customer avatar and focus your product development around that specific avatar, could improve brand recognition, potentially quick returns
Direct Response Cons: expensive, diminishing returns, could be tough to differentiate from competitors in a quick ad
Referral Network Pros: generates re-occurring revenue, can be easier to come up with unique ideas to add value to your referral partners, inexpensive, easy-to-find audience
Referral Network Cons: time-intensive, there will likely be multiple types of customers to cater towards

Trade partners and affiliates can add reoccurring revenue for businesses that typically have little or none.
Example - kitchen remodeling (maybe 3 jobs lifetime per customer)
Offer to give free remodeling advice to realtors and their clients, in return they refer you several jobs per year.

I disagree that most Austrians claim their conclusions about human action or economics as their reasoning for their positions on ethics. I can see how these might get conflated though since Austrian economics shows that the libertarian ethics of the NAP and property rights would also lead to higher standards of living.
I don’t think the action axiom is affected by environmental factors etc. it just says that humans take action in order to improve conditions. The conclusions that are drawn from that would be no different after introducing any of things you mentioned.
It’s a total straw man to say that Austrians suggest that the whole school of thought must be true because a few of its points are accepted. Although as an unimportant side note on this topic, there’s a difference between recognizing marginal utility and recognizing the ordinal nature of utility which I don’t think is so mainstream, although I could be wrong.
What’s an example of a conclusion that Austrians draw from the action axiom which you disagree with? Or is it just a disagreement with the methodology?

2023-05-30 15:59:19

- reply

Humans take action in order to improve some condition - is not self-evidently true? For those who accept that it’s true, it explains why value subjective, and why utility is ordinal rather than cardinal. Seems more revelatory fact than circular reasoning to me.

Chris and his family moved into a new home with a closed off kitchen that was not a good use of space.
He explained his vision for the remodel, we drew up the plans, designed a custom white oak island, then went to work.
Now his family has a beautiful, spacious home. https://nostr.build/i/ffdd3fd3ed80774c0dff998822c1d43397ecde1a3827695ca9a02907f49ef6ee.jpg
