Reworking relays appears to affect follows- please don’t take it personally if it seems I’ve unfollowed you. I’ll find you again, friend 💙
(in time, with a personal relay too so this doesn’t happen again)
Two things:
1) wow CNN reporter gave him a fair shake with takes on both sides- when the fuck was this lol?
2) TIL Trump’s favorite policy statements are just curated Ron Paul policies

And because it’s an open system that people can choose how to plug into… how well we serve ads, in terms of honesty, lack of tracking, unobtrusiveness, etc. will dictate how people feel about visiting a platform- and ironically drive potential ad revenue

TASTE.
“In an AI-powered world, it’s never been easier to produce reasonably well-executed outputs in a short amount of time. When execution becomes commodity, developing taste to know WHAT to create becomes a crucial skill.”

Yes. Transactions secure the network. 2140 no more block reward. Sats are just future economic activity. We need to transact and zap our way to freedom.
The whole game is rigged by criminal market makers who go from coin to coin fleecing the communities…
I have a friend who tried to make an “organic” meme coin. As in he literally told the community he was going to rug them in 69 years and that this thing was not serious. Showed them all the time-locked contract code, etc. The meme content was actually funny, and he’s a gifted marketer/community builder. His entry to the space was timed pretty perfectly too with one of the meme coin bonanzas. It took off a little, but eventually sputtered out and now he’s not sure what to do with the community he’s gathered. He was approached by these market maker groups and figured out the real game by talking to them. Obviously didn’t want to go to jail so never worked with them- but realized that’s how all this garbage gets big. The founders aren’t even the ones doing well off of it (relatively, in most cases), the real people making profits are the offshore criminal market makers grabbing 80% of the supply and running the algo-trading powered pump and dumps.

How is this actually real? They must think the American people are dumb. The guy saying it has to know how moronic his lines are and hate what his career has become
Whether people agree or not, these are important discussions to have. The potential to go viral is a real driver of use of centralized platforms- and I would argue important for plebs. There is definitely a plutocracy of accounts on here right now, which isn’t going to work long term. If Nostr doesn’t have any viral features, we have a problem in this day and age.

When asked if they would reduce the quality of selfies for ugly people, Mosseri said they found they didn’t need to: “People were already doing it themselves”.

Good question- we’ll make an announcement here on Nostr!! We’ll also be starting an email list though, so if you want to DM me your email I’ll make sure you’re on it
#Bitcoin is a trustless technology inevitably creating a trusted brand while being decentralized. Fascinating. Curious as I read this potent little book if he’ll discuss how brand might emerge in a “bottom up” sense from the authentic under-the-hood work that goes into a company…
From “The Brand Gap” by Marty Neumeier. H/T @AceaSpades, love you brother.

At a certain level, the best employees won’t work for an employer who doesn’t pay for their phone bill or provide a phone- especially if it’s needed for work. Sure, it’s a potential distraction- but you hire good people who do good work and trust them to manage their own distractions. Otherwise, you’re in a race to the bottom trying to fend off distractions for people who will find ways to distract themselves no matter what you do.
Fair. Seems it's still useful for a brand though. Like if I'm the Conduit guy and all my Conduit homies have Conduit NIP5s then my NIP5 is suddenly a different site that's a red flag.
...But you're right people probably don't even check, seems like something that needs a re-think.
