 Have a good weekend! I'll try to resume my touristic explorations of Istanbul after some busy months of sitting at home and going to places which I've already known. Maybe I'll share some photos

 Some of my colleagues take vacations in december. So once they come back New Year holidays will begin. Seems like smart lifehack 
 gn everyone 
 Have a good upcoming week everyone! 
 Discovered an amazing book which I am really encouraged to read.
Turing's theories are well-known but I've never understood them. So I will try to deal with it after current books. Btw, I've read another non-fiction book by that author about computer architecture. It's quite hard bur really comprehensive.


The Annotated Turing: A Guided Tour Through Alan Turing's Historic Paper on Computability and the Turing Machine

 I've heard recently that you can track public interest about crypto by monitoring position of crypto exchanges' apps in AppStore or in Play Market (and it's dynamics). Higher positions in trending section correlate with bullish phase of market. Although it's kinda obvious I haven't thought of it before. 
 Too bad I can't see nothing there except a cool logo 
 Yeah, there is some lack of presentation. But I think that there will be more info at the launch (9 of december). 
 Had a pleasure of listening really interesting pitch about product mindpalace.ai/ (launching at the 9 of december). It is a program which aims to store your memories (photos, notes, links), categorize them, make some graphs and so on. Btw, good luck to Maxim, the creator of that program.
While listening to it I was thinking about a feature which can categorize all of your saved messages in Telegram (not only by the type of content, but also by topics). Seems like some AI feature for Telegram. 
 Watched Napoleon today. Below average. Left a lot of questions. The main is "Why this movie has been made? What was the purpose?" 
 What nostr influencers do you recommend to follow? I mean in order to catch up with trends, narratives and etc. 
 Quite a rough week with a lot of work. Have a good weekend everyone! 
 Everyone around share they Spotify Wrapped. Unfortunately I don't use one but I am sure that my top genre would be liquid drum and bass <3

 Okay, I got same thing from another streaming and I have Taylor Swift there... 
 While attending Blockchain Life Conference in Dubai last month discovered a website which could help you to find nearest ATMs or companies to exchange your crypto for cash: https://atm.biz/
Could be useful for local BTC community 
 Some random photo of a beautiful mountains standing on the shore of clear blue sea at Fethiye, Türkiye. I made it last summer on vacation. By the way, it's just brilliant place for swimming, chilling and spectating nature. https://m.primal.net/HRYz.jpg  
 Started my A2 turkish lessons at the weekend. Hope they will go smooth 
 Ok now I can zap you! 
 Thank you very much! I will top-up my balance soon so I will be able to do it too 
 Some random stuff about ChatGPT. 
I asked him to evaluate quite a simple expression: 100! / (50! * 50!) (amount of combinations from 100 by 50). So he gave me wrong answer (I checked in simple calculator). 
I was frustrated as I had thought that ChatGPT must know how to do it. 
My friend advised me to add some context.
So I used a new prompt and told him: "Pretend that you are a calculator and you know how to evaluate mathematical expressions"
And he succeeded! 
 You should copy your alby address (email-like) and put into your profile into LN address field, t...

Yeah, I have done exactly that. It is displayed in my account settings (at least I can see it) 
 Iris is merging with Snort, and I'm not sure which version is served now at iris.to and whether i... 
 Thank you! 
What a great support from community. Even someone from primal team has come to this thread 😃 
 Hey, can you try saving permission on a popup? 
 
 I'll do it, thanks 
 The way it works is that Primal is asking for your pubkey from extension every time you reload. T... 
 Oh, I got it, thanks. By the way what client do you use? My messages which I've posted on Primal are not shown on Iris for example. I would like to find something most compatible with each other. 
 For me it's a bit weird that a have to confirm some actions with Alby extension too often while using nostra clients (e.g. primal). I mean it's okay when I want to publish something but what's the purpose of that when I just want to reload the page or switch to another section of the website? 
 Maybe iris and primal serve for a different purposes from a product point of view idk. Will try to figure it out 
 Switched to primal.net to get a more familiar twitter-like interface (after iris). However I don't see posts from people who I follow. Only trending posts. Maybe I missed something. 
But in general primal is more user-friendly with a sidebar menu (and also I've managed to set a picture finally which wasn't possible at iris.
