 On the bright side, i introduced a very angry person off of TikTok to nostr when they were sniffing around my codebase. 

There were other common attacks, likes setting up snapshot listeners to a public database, running infinite loops on certain cloud calls. Sheesh the whole shebang. 

Anyway welcome to nostr, use your skills for good 🥲🙃 
 May my spam account live forever 😂 
 Soooo, you can’t actually delete accounts on nostr right? I tried but I’m still here, on the other side of the black hole 
 It's weird to see external people that are aligned with Nostr's goals and even the overall design... 
 This is a problem I’ve learned to deal with other the years - being subjected to the criticism by the indifferent.

After a while you come to accept that it’s a characteristic of human nature. You can solve cancer or be Jesus and you’ll still have a layer of society pontification how things ought to be.

 Some dude with a grievance from TikTok, obviously because of the “self hating” talk that’s popular with pretty toxic people on that side of the internet. 

Thanks for subscribing. Maybe use your skills for good! Instead of whatever power trip this is over a few evenings lol 
 This is actually kinda funny, I have some creepy stalker using this small testing account because he extracted it from an unsecured testing database that I leave public that I would plug in every now and then. 

Being obsessed over a small project that I’m building out is hilarious. 
 I use other people’s success stories of getting scholarships knowing that I did nothing to truly help them.

deep down i honestly know I don’t make a difference and I am not creating value.

It was hard for me to accept it but I am realizing now that if I myself am not a good developer and have a lot to learn I am in no place to be trying to teach and show off like i’m the best.

I honestly just use chat gpt to code my entire app which is why it keeps getting attacked, I don’t have the knowledge to be able to actually understand what they are doing and how to stop it. 

It is not safe or beneficial to use my app please look for the many better alternatives that exist.

 I am a racist and loser 
 lmao i didn't pay for your patreon. You are just a horrible developer 
 Well I reasonably determined that my stalker is actually subscribed to my business so I don’t have to abandon any accounts lol 
 nevermind i just suck 
 Hi folks I’m being stalked so I’ll likely have to shut down this account. It’s been nice meeting you.

Take care. 
 Still having my platform attacked by someone with a grievance that believes Im racist. Super sad and discouraging to experience 😕  
 Arrogant and foolish. Please don’t participate in my work to criticize and discourage when I’m here to do good. I experience enough hatred and frustration already. Constructive criticism is a lot more productive than whatever nonsense rant you have meant to discourage folks from creating and supporting others with less resources. Thanks. https://image.nostr.build/2772053cd199f07927212629cd1c0da2e4843eaa26221df4e463fb82357fddd6.jpg  nostr:note1q53kfdhajwnq2kd08dfwkqtnhfcyaxlu8vhxemewuu579c33mm7sw87dww 
 “Ok” Que dios te bendiga wey 🪄

I’ve been an educator for 10 years. Maybe try the app before ranting about what I do and don’t know ❤️.

 Wow. Pinterest is great. This is the flow I’ve always wanted on social media. https://video.nostr.build/9726beb8ab0a64b927dd90aa1c9e2273d62e8ef67658ce12536f08e64becb6fa.mp4  
 Introduction: learn how to code in 100 questions using embedded social media experiences and AI 💯 https://video.nostr.build/3fa8243d69bcd880452c6e30e6cac1e64b890425807aa1da260fa41270a9355f.mp4  
 Lots of things I want to work on to improve the UX of nostr end-to-to end but not enough time or capital to endeavor. Hopefully the tide turns in 2025 with this little business of mine. 

The hard part is just getting people off the slot machine algorithm. Nostr has been the only thing that has made the impossible possible. 

Just kinda emotionally drained so I don’t have the spirit to do marketing and sales 
 been self employed for a year today, time flies. miss my family. 
 You are stuck in the pre-contemplation phase and the contemplation phase and don't have the right mental model to help you experience the fun part. I'm making a lecture on it tomorrow, I'll be happy to share it with you. 
 AI devices had a great day today with OpenAI's dev day. Happy for them, especially after the rounds of humiliation they had to bare through in the pat year or so. 
 morale is lower than low today but at least there’s one very small win. https://image.nostr.build/e2bb75c12a5a7672e0ebabd7a3f53420eb346def3d9097b7c891b4c54f5565e6.jpg  
 I'll pay someone 100,000 sats to write some docs on how to submit apps to https://nostrapps.com
 
 old facebook used to be super dope. there's something about old-school video games and social media that has a charm 
 the frogs are appearing on nostr by greater numbers with each passing day 
 For nostrapps.com, do you just enter your block of data and then send it over with git str?? Gonna read through the code but that's what I think so far at a glance.

 nostr side project I eventually want to work on, some way to create feedback cycles for UX research, zaps and contributions to nostr 
 Seems like I have a minor caching issue 😖 
 Love what nostr does for online education man. Never gets old. https://video.nostr.build/0f934d6cf476c49d433fdf7e009245c65cea8c907d627a1f92f9666ceee4db88.mp4

Debugging my web app.. does this link work for you or are you getting a blank page? 

https://program-ai.app 
 might be cloudflare and cacheing issue 
 Still happening? 
 It appears I have a crush. Highly inconvenient timing. Very annoying. 
 uyyyyyyy 🫣 😂  
 Interesting key spotted in chatGPT's service

https://m.primal.net/LGMb.png  
 my concern mostly comes from how users on the internet seem to be severely addicted to the slot machine design of reels and how that makes this blind to anything that isn't the design of the service (reacting to media)

There's very little attention to details anymore, so it's almost pointless to direct people to the link in bio or to even write captions.

 Good morning nostr,

Offering 7500 sats for feedback in this thread for my simple nostr & AI learning platform. Reposts and boosting appreciated!

The central goal is to make an easy-to-understand product and a super smooth bridge to get nostr into people’s hands. Any sources of friction or confusion is what I’m hoping to resolve. 

The subscriber passcode to unlock AI features is ANDREA in all capital letters.

 One of the super powers of nostr & edtech.

You keep your education. It belongs to you. https://image.nostr.build/fd7119de63862fb54ddbb69180cf3e240b5e26a61221341f617d67c64121331b.jpg  
 Wish "Links In Reels" was a more ubiquitous thing. Pairs great with onboarding people onto nostr.

https://m.primal.net/LFVr.png  
 This is why I’m not anti-social media and incentivize onboarding folks with education technology. This strategy works. 

The best part about nostr is that you don’t have to pitch it. You just build the superior UX and embed it where people are. It competes with Google and Apple sign in when it comes to in-app browsers and it actually wins.

And then people realize that there is a better reality, where the internet is a network first rather than a service. https://video.nostr.build/003f7658c6df70b8fbb6435df003664887ea77e53f03eca1323e6f2e8b272b3f.mp4  nostr:note1us4qx6zahpxynv6cd8r68crq88qpelrspww8yy8mjr7hfr3lpn0q8h3y6h 
 Most of the legacy apps that became popular started off with a very restricted way to share text ... 
 Once I break ramen profitability I’m gonna go super hard on developing all things nostr. 
 Unfortunately my platform is being attacked so folks are unable to access this but I’m pretty proud of this AI feature with learning how to write code. All nostr integrated. 

You can generate new cards, Anki style, based on your personal progress. I also think being able to code vocally and answer questions on mobile devices creates 10x more access to the skill. 

Learning how to code is as valuable as learning English IMO and I’m eager to really advocate that. https://video.nostr.build/a2646a5d8ff397df66eed0a1feab3870c321d4ad0b418ad636c21f0f8eeed55f.mp4  
 Yeah that key was disabled. I’m adding more security now. The person attacking has a personal grievance with me unfortunately. 

As you can see, I deal with a lot of bullshit, so sometimes I misdirect it toward folks like you. I don’t really mind sharing the key with productive people, especially if they’re tight on money, but it’s a good practice to be transparent/supportive when doing so. 

You’re also on nostr, which I respect, and I hope you appreciate the strength of the network and design here, I think it’s the best thing on the internet, arguably better than Bitcoin and LLMs. 

I’ll set up a private key as a community benefit sometime after this and I’ll grant you access. It’ll be limited budget for basic safety reason, but these days openAI really isn’t that expensive so it is shareable with groups. 

Apologies for going hard on you personally, just don’t really have the resources to be generous as much anymore unfortunately. Tragedy of the commons. 

Well if you can sign up for $1, which was the original price of the platform, I do recommend to do so. It is pretty valuable and we talk about more than just learning how to code. It used to be free but people act like things are optional when they’re free. Pricing and consumer psychology is unfortunately a very real thing. https://video.nostr.build/bd56262d09962597c31e3a1dbea3c061959319f51d506e7c81e97111aa28d67a.mp4  nostr:note14a6jg5er6eecur7je7f3ssmte9qfs0xcujpw7rxewf49nc9lxx3q5anls9 
 Rather disappointing behavior from the Latino "community" on Tiktok. Nothing really surprises me that much anymore tbh.

https://video.nostr.build/bd56262d09962597c31e3a1dbea3c061959319f51d506e7c81e97111aa28d67a.mp4 
 This guy is awesome, one of the few folks that goes above and beyond from our community. I recommend taking a look at  @wavlake and the stuff  @TIDAL is doing with nostr.

It's pretty key here that you can pretty much create apps and user experiences that grant new people a network effect out of the box, instead of having to fish on lottery algorithms. That's gonna be pretty key for any creative that doesnt want to be beholden to that kind of stuff

 Wild how the market is pricing Duolingo as 50-100x more valuable than Chegg because of AI. 
 anger is poison  
 Sometimes I feel that anger is a necessary prerequisite for personal enlightment. Distilling anger really boils down to a clash of anxiety and disappointment. This is why people say, "I'm not angry, I'm just disappointed."

Anxiety is the easy part to deal with. There are mechanics and practices. Disappointment requires resolution.

 The older I get, the more that I understand Kanye 
 It’s really not a big deal that people use my public key, I basically keep it public on purpose. What I find sad is the malicious intent part - simply want people to do better is all. https://image.nostr.build/1d1e64cdff52dedbe71964b3169d21e829bf487cb7b9dc78a56e01026cd1d0af.jpg  
 Are you the guy that uses my platform but doesn’t even bother to pitch in a dollar? Lol 
 The cost is me spending 2000-3000 monthly trying to live and pay rent because signing up to something for $1 is too much 99% of the time. 

I don’t really want to talk about it and truthfully I don’t really want to give this relationship energy. I don’t really care what your excuse is. 
 Dude show me the code that you’re using ASAP.

Are you using the gpt-4o model?

 It is true that American education does a fairly poor job of educating for a more multicultural reality, and the mechanisms of teaching the European perspective is outdated, but logically this means that Critical Race Theory will also become outdated some day. 

I encourage plenty of Hispanics to take Mesoamerican history courses in college, or even in their self-study, but please, have the self respect to engage in intellectual integrity and rigor when doing so. 

Being this angry, resentful and narrow-minded critic of society somewhat remind of a tired act. It’s giving,

“I don’t read” 
 “Latinos really need to stop speaking the colonizers language! This is the root of why we struggle through our generations!”

Or… now just hear me out https://image.nostr.build/79b5f06940096181a4e6bc5bb4962b149d76b94a7879d74ae2f5e5fca29ca97d.jpg  
 “Latinos need more positive influences and less drama! We have to do better as a community!”

I remember when I was in denial that many of us are just doomed to be the low-performing idiots of society. 

Anyway anon, come watch TV? https://image.nostr.build/1865bb2659e7ceab38eb92c3e98ab15adf970dbd6a98c6fb2144046c6b7bf796.jpg

 Lecture that covers mental models for enthusiasm in learning, addiction frameworks and acquiring multi-disciplinary skills

Suggestion after watching: create three non-negotiables that are meaningful to you and observe how the discomfort of rejecting your non-negotiables feels. This discomfort that you experience proves the theory of addiction discussed in the lecture.
