A few months ago, @grayruby posted SN and the Zen of 1 sat = 1 sat. Since then, the top of my SN page has read "1 sat = 1 sat". It is quite peaceful.
While setting up random zaps, I stumbled across another setting that's been giving me a similar sense of peace. I disabled being notified when I receive zaps. After all, I keep insisting that I'm not here for the sats, but rather for the community, so why do I need to see how much and how often people are zapping me. It's much less clutter in the notifications feed and everything in there is now something to potentially respond to.
Give it a whirl.

I don't know what I think about this, but Solana is a fantastic writer:
Solana surely has a membership card from the Self-Congratulatory Silicon Valley Intellectuals Society, and you feel a bit of oil on your skin after you read it, but this is something to noodle on for sure.
Nayib Bukele: Greetings, good sir! Pray tell, what dost thou think of the current state of our noble nation?
Saifedean Ammous: Greetings, good sir. 'Tis an honor to be in thy presence. I thank thee for thy gracious words, noble President Bukele. Verily, I perceive great potential in El Salvador's adoption of the coin of Bit for tender legal. 'Tis a bold move, indeed. How doth thy people embrace this path?
Nayib Bukele: our people, with fervor unmatched, doth embrace this novel endeavor. 'Tis a testament to the resilience and adaptability of our nation.
Saifedean Ammous: Thy courage, President Bukele, shines as a beacon of hope amidst a world entangled in the web of inflation and hypocrisy. I trust that El Salvador, under thy leadership, shall navigate these uncharted waters with wisdom and fortitude.
Nayib Bukele: I humbly accept thy kind words, good sir. The irony runs deep indeed. Those whom doth support a leader's war cries to inflate approval ratings, while the very fabric of their economy trembles. Their horse feed prices soar, the flames of inflation scorching the livelihoods of millions. 'Tis a sight to behold, the true face of hypocrisy.
Saifedean Ammous: Thy words ring true, noble President. Hypocrisy lurks in the shadows of power, yet thy steadfast resolve shines a light upon the path of righteousness. As the winds of change blow, thy own Keiser lends his support to thy cause, recognizing the wisdom in thy vision.
Nayib Bukele: Aye, the support of the Keiser, a voice of reason and foresight, bolsters our spirits. Together, we shall forge ahead, rewriting the narrative of financial empowerment. El Salvador shall stand as a testament to the potential unleashed when innovation and wisdom intertwine.
Thus, the conversation betwixt Nayib Bukele and Saifedean Ammous
