nicholas (@nichola) • Hey
Computers themselves, and software yet to be developed, will revolutionize the way we learn.
Publications
- Recent operations have centered around Meme and DWF manipulating hot coins, and when the market lacks liquidity, there are really only localized highlights to bet on.
- wow we have @club/gardening club now
🪻🪴🎋🫛🪷🌾🎍🌻🥀🌴🌳🌵
thanks @lens/jamesbeck
- Spot party, do not be afraid of quilt cover, unless early hoarding cake, otherwise spot no one can be completely free of quilt.
But do not be full, not to take off all the way to the bull market, it is still early, the next market will be more tortuous.
Add some to the needle, leaving some U for the black swan (although there may not be a black swan).

`getting started` with #lens in 5 steps 🪴 [bonsai update]
(0 a) maybe consider adding some information about yourself and a pfp to your profile before you start.
(0 b) "hello world" posts get quite some attention ... 😉 . (if you can post something related to what you are interested in ... 🎇 -> People you start following might take a look at your profile and follow if they are interested in the content you share.) Find one great example at the end of the post.
(1) https://lists.inlens.xyz/lists/818891525288558593 **updated** - list of great profiles to start your lens journey ... you will discover a ton, worth following profiles in the communities of people in this list. lists.inlens.xyz/ in general is a great starting point. (new this month: @lens/bonsai @lens/paulburke )
(2) probably you read this post on @lens/hey . If you are interested in lens mobile apps, @lens/orbapp and @lens/buttrfly are at the moment - imo - the most advanced general purpose lens mobile apps. One of the beautiful things regarding lens is that it doesn't matter which lens app you use, every lens app has access to the same content and social graph.
(3) what you share on lens is stored and publicly available for a very long time. Probably forever. You can hide posts, comments and mirrors. But that's a front-end feature, the data is still available and publicly accessible.
(4) "collects" are a very powerful concept, adding a NFT version of the post to your address (4th symbol below a post on @lens/hey ). Collects can be monetised -> creators can use collect fees to earn money or have $POINTLESS fun on lens. Maybe consider creating a post collectible for $BONSAI. Or $POINTLESS or ...
(5) one more thing :-) being active, commenting on posts and topics you are interested in goes a long way. Of course there is a chance that your posts will be discovered, commented and mirrored, but you increase the probability of being discovered dramatically with valuable comments.
It is quite challenging to get attention, especially for new profiles. A few approaches to get more visibility:
[1] @lens/animators started on lens drawing lens PFPs https://hey.xyz/posts/0x0108fb-0x75 . Imo still one of the best (high quality) growth hacks I’ve seen on lens yet (0 to 100 followers). Maybe you can think of something inspired by @lens/animators ’ idea based on your talent and skills.
[2] consider joining communities on @lens/orbapp .
[3] consider contributing content to the weekly @lens/thisweekon highlight series ( https://hey.xyz/posts/0x01d898-0x44 ) or other content threads like @lens/trustmebro .
[4] consider participating in campaigns / events on lens or create an event (maybe check out #OPENLENS for reference). (If you plan to create something please feel free to reach out 🤍)
[5] consider joining lens spaces on @lens/buttrfly .
[6] @ profiles you think your content is relevant for or you would like to get input from. Pls be selective and not spammy.
`cover artists of the month`
TYSM @lens/zospours for creating this beautiful getting started cover 🤍🙏.
Collect is the #lens super power. The “getting started” post is a 333 limited edition (20 $BONSAI with 50% mirror fee share, the collect fee goes 100% to the artists.)
What does it mean? You can collect one of 333 available NFTs of @lens/zospours ‘ awesome artwork (and this post :-)). If you mirror the post and the post will be collected via your mirror, you will get 10 $BONSAI. The revenue generated from the collect fee will go directly to the artist’s address.
Is there any utility? Everyone who collects this post can suggest and vote on the next “getting started” cover artist.

- **Sketchbook Series 5.2.2024**
I got a new sketchbook! Since I want to start doing more shading, I figure the paper for my last sketchbook was too thin. Plus it was pretty beat up 😂 I've also started incoporating more graphite, and I gotta say, the way it glides on paper really hits different 🤌

- **Sketchbook Series 5.16.2024**
The act of shading in greyscale is so meditative to me. When I zoom in on how the light shifts and where shadow forms, all the voices and distractions are silenced. This is also the first time I filled the whole page of a sketchbook with one subject, and it's sooo satisfying. I need to do this more.
