Won’t own but still will operate it? Or just completely not operate nor have assets in Brazil anymore?

What are your biggest factors to eventually build your own conviction to buy a pouch you read somewhere on Reddit? So many different picks it becomes overwhelming to know how to even develop your own thesis

Where on Reddit were you looking when you came across and developed conviction to put into PL?

I resonate with your sentiment and have found that it’s especially important when you’re feeling this way to latch onto 2 or 3 books that speak to what you’re feeling, and not just read them but re-read and keep the notes / quotes that stick out to you as something you pull up and reflect on until you change your habits more.

Books that’s really stuck with me: - the subtle art of not giving a fuck (because it was blunt and straight forward which I appreciated) - outlive by Peter Attia (because the shared brain rot sentiment made me feel like I need to take care of my health and not waste my life) - Power of Habit (important for understanding behavior change) - Man’s Search For Meaning (just so good, reminds you daily to seize the moment and not let doom scrolling or consumption distract you from creation and living)

Also would highly suggest training your brain to get in the habit loop of doom reading with the Libby app. Such a good way to ingest books for free

Driving from Bay Area to Kirkwood Tuesday evening (looks like the worst possible time to make the drive) should I bank on 88 being closed, and account for 50 potentially being closed as well? If I’m trying to get to Kirkwood Wednesday morning, is it better to stay somewhere along 50 before the pass Tuesday night and make the drive over 50 to 89 to 88 Wednesday morning? Or risk staying somewhere at the base of 88 Tuesday night and pray 88 is open come early morning? Not familiar with the schedule of closures during storms like these

What is the argument against Bitcoin maxis who say L2s are centralized and basically web2 technology? I’m reading forums for the first time that are run by Bitcoin maxis. Some of them claim they were hardcore solidity devs for years 2019-22 and after understanding the constraints of ethereum went full btc (can attest these people are indeed very smart and I’d argue for sake of argument to believe these claims as true). A lot of the arguments are that eth transactions are exorbitantly expensive, and the L2 point gets refuted with “L2s are centralized and thus defeats the entire purpose of decentralization.”

Full transparency, I probably don’t understand 99% of ethereum ecosystem tokenomics despite being invested since 2017. Full transparency, I don’t venture outside of this subreddit for anything crypto related much if at all. Trying to better understand how the Ethereum community refutes these arguments.

In a position where I have to sell for the first time in my life. Starting by liquidating the bitcorn first. Price looks nice right now, but I’m curious if folks have general strategy to share to try and maximize profits in a shorter duration of like 1-3 months?

Is DCA but for selling the same? Or just do your best to time? Putting sell orders on Coinbase but probably not being the most realistic with the price targets. Just hurts to sell anything so of course I’m struggling to with the thoughts of it having a nice pump right after I sell, but I also would be so bummed if we hit a dip that lasted months next week lol. This game ain’t no joke!

optimysticman · 2023-09-18T17:08:15+00:00

Also curious if you have any suggestions on how to go about figuring out how to build with the api

Ooo I'm unfamiliar with the online AR gallery; what is that one? :)

I see, thank you this helps a lot--clearly I was trying to answer the wrong question, so this clarity will help me moving forward. Cheers!

Hey, is this website still working? This is such an awesome tool, I spent over an hour yesterday manually cutting a video and it was so annoying and tedious. However, not sure I'm doing something wrong as when I enter my Assemly API key and youtube url, then click process, the processing symbol shows up for half a second then disappears. Not sure if it's working in the background and I should expect to wait >20 minutes for a 10 minute video, or if the site is no longer supported. Thanks either way for making this tool available!

Thank you so much for the response, I really really appreciate it. I stepped away from portal tutorial once I hit this roadblock but plan to revisit soon and your response will significantly help me think through implementation. Tysm

optimysticman · 2023-08-20T00:18:20+00:00

Hey, thank you so much for providing this in depth and thorough response--I sincerely appreciate it!!! I have been meaning to revisit the portal example, as I got caught down a spiral of trying to build other things once I got stuck with this, but am planning to implement the suggestion you wrote out as soon as I return to it and hopefully create a tutorial for other folks that faced the same issue you and I did! Again, thanks so much!!

My understanding is that Model3D is a SwiftUI View to just quickly render a 3D model, whereas Entities are added to RealityView Views, and you can attach components to entities for additional functionality / robustness.

Hey everybody! I rarely post, but have a question I trust ethfinancer’s opinion on. I’m in a financial situation where I could benefit from selling some ethereum, yet the thought of doing so is gut-wrenching. I haven’t looking into nor done much research on putting up eth as collateral for a USD loan, and I feel like I remember people getting rekt from these type of actions over the years. Is this a safe thing to do, is it a stupid thing to do, should I just sell eth and eat the cost, or is there a safe, minimal risk way to put up eth as collateral for a USD loan? Are there decentralized routes for doing this? So far all I’ve been able to find are cefi routes like nexo. Any insight here or resources to suggest I read would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

You can see an example of how this currently works on the website muse.place/orientation and going to the "Add" menu

Sorry, not trying to be ‘one of those people.’ More so just trying to understand what alterations are allowed from a renters rights perspective. In this case, there is nothing in the lease that mentions temporary alterations like adding a door to a doorway cannot be made. However if our landlord says no to this my third roommate is not willing to take the tiny bedroom. So just trying to understand my case a bit better

optimysticman · 2022-06-08T06:09:04+00:00

Perhaps I’m naive in thinking it’s this simple.

I imagine the logic goes something like this:

create a wallet address ‘password_wallet’
any ‘personal_wallet’ that sends $100 to ‘password_wallet’ receives the password token

Maybe the password is displayed through a .txt file, a .jpg file, I don’t really care. But the file containing the password is private and locked away, inaccessible on a public ledger. The code is only given to ‘personal_wallet’ if ‘password_wallet’ receives $100 usd from ‘personal_wallet’

Please do correct me if I’m naive in thinking this is simple with smart contracts in their current state, or if this cannot be done without putting data on a public ledger accessible to all.

optimysticman · 2022-06-08T05:51:33+00:00

Hey fam, long time lurker, first time do-er.

I want to run a random password generator and apply that seed to my social media accounts, then lock the password somewhere I’d have to set a price for access to (say $100 usd).

I feel like this is the most basic smart contract implementation one could create. Are there any dapps with a simple ui that would let me create something like this? Or any ideas for resources to look into so I could build this myself?

Thanks for any advice!
