@spacemandev I always feel this absence when he’s not around. Like part of me is missing. Sorry to hear you’ll be away from your pup for so long. 😢
Woke up in Hollywood, drove my favorite streets to Santa Monica and Silverlake, saw my friends and hugs. Blasted Jamiroquoi in the truck with my dog by my side. This is #happilyeverafter
Just because I’m living #happilyeverafter doesn’t mean I don’t suffer. Today’s suffering was in the form of taking 3 hours to drive 90 miles, all while a cold blew up my sinus & nostrils. I arrive home to find homemade carrot soup in the freezer. Damn I’m good! #beyourownsoulmate
@darrello But you must have a dog-friend with you!
Well, at least the sickness waited to hit until the last day of my trip. The Mojave weather is gorgeous, but all the home improvement plans must wait, until I finish this box of kleenex and martial arts marathon.
@spacemandev Awe! What a cutie! I will tag you in an Archibald thread in a bit... PS. When I used to have to go into an office, I always required they let me bring Mr Dog (my dog at the time) with me a couple days a week. He made everyone so happy! Dogs in the office are great.
@briecode I just got back from Costa Rica and most of their fences are made of living trees. I asked about this and the response was, it’s clearly more environmental and pleasing. Why would you use a dead tree??! #puravida

I am happy to report that 24 hours of soup and samurai film have reduced my colds attack by 50%.
@jjamie27 I did watch Seven Samurai! How can I resist Toshiro Mifune? My guilty pleasure was Kung Fu Hustle. Other favs include, The Hidden Fortress, Last Gasp for Chivalry (which feels like it has many hat tips to SS), and Master of the Flying Guillotine.
One reason I plant/ed so many trees on my property: to change the climate, more trees = more shade = more moisture in the ground = a less harsh climate = more wildlife (starting with lower food chain animals to support life up the food chain). https://www.latimes.com/environment/story/2019-10-04/global-warming-mojave-desert-birds-water
@jjamie27 OMG - yes, you must watch that one. It's classic!
On the dog walk: a flock of Gambel quail - the babies have all grown up - almost a dozen of them. Later in the darkening dusk, a dark shadow on the road, then in the creosote. I stop and watch coyote who stops and watches me back. Pic of the tarantula I saw yesterday. #bliss

Day 2 (yesterday) of RnR soup and samurai movies (ok and binge watching rom-coms) and I’m almost back to 100% this morning. Coffee, dog, morning reading the Dalai Lama. Watching the sun rise on the desert. Feels so good to be home. I’m ready for the next chapter of my life.

@kittenhotep Yes, there are things happening in Wonder Valley (I have a meth shack out there too). That doesn't feel like big money to me, more edgy, early 90s bay area feel.
@kittenhotep The Bombay Beach stuff... that also feels suspect. Big money buying art privilege. But who am I to judge the heiress kids of millionaires/billionaires who want to slum it with the Burning Man crowd. Artists need patrons... right? (I'm so conflicted.)

No photograph can capture the majesty of a rising full moon in the Mojave, faded in the pink light, huge at eye level; growing in solidness, a rosy peach orb in the belt of Venus; cooling to ivory in the darkening sky, and smaller still as it crosses the sky until dawn breaks.
In dating land news, I’ve absolutely leveled up - genuine compassion for the boyfriend who ghosted me. Srsly people Buddhism will change your life. Thank you, next. ❤️ (Hopefully with more EQ.)

Lunch was this amazing chicken/tofu tikka masala with garlic naan. There’s no picture cause I already ate it. At year 2 in the Mojave, I can officially cook decent Indian & Mexican. (Two cuisines you’d never cook at home in LA.) Thai panang curry is my current culinary frontier.

My crazy hypnogogic mind: Duress credit card numbers. Credit card or account transfer numbers that are tagged as being used when you're under duress. The bank "holds" the transfer, or otherwise slows down the flow & collects KYC on the transfer end to identify a criminal action.

RT only RTs things that supports the worldview they want you to believe (anti-democracy). If you end up on RT, then it's because you can be used as a weapon against US democracy.

What can we expect in the next phase of technology development? https://medium.com/in-present-tense/its-the-end-of-the-beginning-of-self-sovereign-identity-18722f1c13b4 #digitalidentity
@lpeterman @Identiverse That's fantastic news. Congrats!
Exciting opportunity and great focus on UX for digital identity. Way to go @Identiverse & @lpeterman! https://twitter.com/LancePeterman/status/1187041615870939136
@kojacker @darrello I've heard it spoken by some Microsoft identity folks.
I was gonna run off and explore some volcanoes today, but instead I'm writing drafts and baking my two signature items: Chai Spice Pumpkin Loaf and Summer Berry Cake. Someone might be coming to visit.... plus I have some mechanics to thank.
@kojacker @darrello @csuwildcat To be clear, I am not crediting a specific person.
The lip smacking bliss of chicken and pumpkin and love. Twice a day.
A great write-up of IIW, you can see why I -- and many of my colleagues -- keep coming back. https://twitter.com/idworkshop/status/1186812493110231041
What's becoming more and more clear to me, is that a lot of people have no idea of the role of government -- we've mostly drunk the free market capitalism kool-aid. Government and markets must co-exist, because the market will never serve everyone's needs.
@_XPID_ Thank you!
@patrick99e99 you know we can't have this conversation! 💖💖💖
@jerickso Awe.
@darrello @csuwildcat @kojacker I see a use case for an identity to assert some things that can then be verified/confirmed by other parties/data. For example, an IoT device may assert its identity & location, and separate geolocation data may corroborate. Don't limit thinking to human only identity/assertions.
@darrello @csuwildcat @kojacker The bigger point is ... multiple words are used to describe self sovereign identity/decentralized identity/self asserted identity. And I expect others to make up new names and try to push their preference via marketing. AJAX was named like 5 years after DHTML had been around.
@omegaproxy @kojacker @darrello For the big concept - IMHO No. I use them interchangeably based on my audience, but I also like the short term SSI vs the mouthful decentralized identity, which is also more vague but more descriptive and makes sense re: governments being sovereign.
@omegaproxy @kojacker @darrello I don't think the name that will be used to describe this technology long term has been uttered yet.

My faith in humanity is restored just talking with the amazing badass young women at this Las Vegas @lizzo concert. And Lizzo hasn’t even taken the stage yet. Omg - these women are just amzing. So much luv 4 the future.

Wake up in Vegas with hangover, drive through the Mojave, but/eat donuts, sugar high, Kelso depot, sugar crash, driving through more Mojave, feel like I’m driving the curve of the earth, make it home for doggy kisses, omg am I tired but it was such a great adventure!
@slackmistress OMG - absolutely the same!
Safe travels on your final journey @Ridley - I know you will always be looking over your mom. She was the best doggo mom ever. Your internet fans will miss your silly loveable face, but we are glad you suffer no more. The love from your dog never dies. https://twitter.com/Ridley/status/1188519993920643072
@briecode Lizzo!!!
Woke up to a calm and serene, although cold, Mojave morning. I learn about a new fire in LA, racing to the ocean, fueled by my beloved Santa Anas.
Been waiting for a country to do this --> "the best way to reinforce the monetary distribution rights of countries is for the government and central bank to issue sovereign digital currencies." Also some harsh words about SWIFT. https://twitter.com/katherineykwu/status/1188833475165675522
Rethinking this whole not drinking coffee this week...
Oh hey look, here are my #futureofmoney future scenarios -- from almost 10 years ago. Ah, I had such innocence then. https://www.heathervescent.com/heathervescent/futurist.html
Why I am annoyed with 90% of the strategic advisors and other title changers who call themselves futurists. Also, why you/the media doesn't "believe" "futurists." Also why "futurists" do a bad job telling you (possible) futures. It's not branding. https://twitter.com/refuturing/status/1188966168792616960
Morning thought: I <3 Huckabees is a story about regulatory capture.
@hacks4pancakes I've realized the joy in having a (reliable) handyman that I can pay to do things I don't necessarily want to. Delegate it and be done!
@hacks4pancakes I'd help ya if I lived closer. But yeah, once I realized just paying someone to do stuff for me, made things a lot easier. The challenge can be finding someone good & reliable at times.

Cold night in the Mojave, perfect Kimono weather. (I don’t wear my kimono enough). https://www.instagram.com/p/B4OltAVBjby/?igshid=xrc7k5mi7a3q
@MadelineAshby I think that's my new mantra.
New mantra thanks to @MadelineAshby --> "When the improbable has already happened, the impossible is within reach."
Ice on the bird bath, not surpringly since it was 34 degrees at 6am. Birds on the front slab. I scatter their seed as I make tea. I can still see the fat mountain range through the haze.
Pulled out my “winter” boots. Cottontail has patchy winter coat coming in. Me and the dog snuggle for heat. It seems like just a few weeks ago I was sweltering in 100+ degree heat. Ah, life in the Mojave.

Is there a word that describes the (I think mainly Asian manufacturing business practice) of outsourcing? Example, you get an order for 10k units, you keep a % of the $, and find another source to fulfill the order at a cheaper price?
@JamieXML Fair point, but I'm thinking I read somewhere it's maybe a Chinese term, but can't remember. Is there a more succinct English word?
@roseveleth What I'm thinking about happens earlier in the supply chain... but that's a great term!
@JamieXML Well, yeah cornerstone of capitalism... lol
@patrick99e99 What if it's in the manufacturing part of the process? pre-retail.
@NishantK Yes!!!! Is there a word for this?!
@NishantK There needs to be a business term for it!
