GM Farcaster ep237 Wednesday April 23, 2025 with Octant and @vpabundance

Thank you to our premier partner Octant! And thank you @vpabundance for stopping by to fill us in on all the happenings at Octant!

From our ChatGPT Intern: Today’s GM Farcaster is a full-blown mini app therapy session, with Adrienne ranting (lovingly) about error messages, developer overload, and the existential question of whether it’s a tunnel problem or a soul problem. With @VPAbundance joining to break down Octant’s onchain grant magic, FarCon chaos ramping up, and a vintage purple top hat becoming the degen symbol we didn’t know we needed, this episode proves that building in public sometimes means debugging your feelings, too.
