Long Fetch

I’ve been working on another app as a home-cooked meal.

I’ve made two paddles over the last few years - both for stand up paddleboarding.

I’ve been thinking about natural rhythms.

I’ve got Home Tide to a point where you can very quickly get a handle on what’s happening with the day’s tides by tapping on the map: This view tells you: How high is the tide right now?

Earlier in the year I wrote about how I wanted to get in tune with the tides.

Five years ago I wrote: Over the last few years I’ve started a lot of hobby projects and I haven’t finished a single one of them.

The tides play a big role in our home.

If you have any comments, questions or suggestions about Home Tide please let us know.

I made a toy xylophone for a toddler.

I wanted to make some toys for the young people in my life and I wanted a woodwork project that I could complete with hand tools in the kitchen.

In the last post I started an experiment: I set up four NKN nodes in different regions around the world, to see which (if any) would earn mining rewards in the following two weeks.

NKN runs on its own blockchain, which incentivises people to contribute their bandwidth to the network by rewarding them with NKN tokens.

NKN is a project that aims to create a fast, private and secure general-purpose peer-to-peer network.

Decentralised networks like bitcoin and ethereum make it easy to reward participants for contributing their resources, by sending them tokens.

🦍 This really blows my mind.

In the last post we talked about a platform for earning interest by loaning out ethereum assets like eth and Dai.

Compound is a platform for lending and borrowing ethereum assets like ether, Dai and USD Coin.

🦊 What is MetaMask If you want to start doing fun stuff with ethereum, without having to run a full ethereum node, then the MetaMask browser extension is a great place to start.

📈 Speculating Now you’ve got some ether, what are you going to do with it?

A quick disclaimer: the value of ether relative to currencies like the £ and $ fluctuates, so there’s a chance any ether you buy will become worthless.

In 2008 Satoshi Nakamoto lobbed an idea hand grenade into the world, shouted “good luck!”

Welcome I’m excited about ethereum.

I’ve seen a few tweets this week about how sales of Moleskine notebooks are up and it got me thinking about the stories we tell ourselves.

Over the last few years I’ve started a lot of hobby projects and I haven’t finished a single one of them.
