I am a city boy. I am soft as fuck. However, the older I get the more the country calls to me.

I was remembering my first experience being at a rodeo as an adult when I first moved south (I had been to a rodeo as a child, but don't recall much).

One of my biggest takeaways was that I would rather be around rednecks and salt-of-the-earth types than be around city people.

City people are fine (some of them). They have their perks and quirks like anybody. The inverse is also true.

I am not sure I encountered a bug, it may have been my DB go t corrupted.

Yesterday, on Brave, I was using the client and out of the blue after the refresh the screen went blank. The app shell seemed to load, because it was the color you use in your design.

I opened the Dev tools and I was getting a long list of console errors. Mostly around things being undefined or length does not exist on type of undefined.

This morning I nuked my DB, everything was back to normal.

I should've made a ticket right way, for that I can only apologize.

If you're an advocate for monetary policy, economics, or topic X and think it's important it's up to you to go out, evangelize, and help people.

Great point!


I didn't say it didn't exist. I just thinking that manipulation of this kind with real value (not likes) is now much less frictionless.


Zaps is potentially a great manipulation tool. Basically allows an entity to reward certain types of behavior.

For example, I replied to provide what I saw in an inkblot art. The author says: "hey, add this hashtag and you'll get a zap" this is a small thing, I am not upset by it or anything. Hell, it's smart.

Just imagine a large entity use zaps to reward certain opinions, or calls to action?

Some rando calls for violence, entity who wants said violence rewards handsomely. Another rando sees the reward, and they start calling for the same. Rinse and repeat until a mob thats been hacked to behave the way the entity wants.

I guess the thing that I find so irksome about Musk-types is the blind hero worship they get.

I don't think a lot of folks know they can `nostr:<note-id>`. Although, in fairness, there is  alot of friction to do this. Basically:

- copy note id (or event id)
- in note you are writing: add nostr:
- paste id
- post

I mostly poke fun at Mastodon, but something interesting happened last week that got me thinking. I received several messages via the protocol that I needed to update my instance to patch a vulnerability.

How did this happen? My instance publicly lists my Mastodon handle as being the admin, so folks could scan the Fediverse of instances for unpatched versions and message their admins.

Last week I was researching Bitcoin node versions and how long it takes operators to update. I realized that the average time to update is increasing over the years. My suspicion is this is a result of more hobbyist node operators who aren't technical and are running a user friendly plug and play node. So they are less likely to be checking the node for updates.

Point being, nostr seems like a great solution for the notification problem. Imagine if you could paste your npub into node / any other server software upon installation. The server could generate its own private key and establish an encrypted DM channel with you. Then whenever an update is available, you could be notified in your nostr client.

Voila, secure and decentralized update notifications for server admins!

One way to think about webhooks is it's a way for me to respond to events that happen on another application.

For example, let's say I had a service that I follow my favorite artists, and that service had webhooks. Let's call this service M

Additionally I have my own service (like a wordpress site).

What I could then do, is set up a hook on M, that will send a message to my service and then respond to it in some way.

Posting deeply illegal and immoral stuff that I will not describe further, often with the intent to or pretense of provoke interest from law enforcement) here on Nostr, report it using your clients report function asap. I write this because the first bit of such popped up in my view today, and as a constructively contributing member if the Nostr milieu, I don't want to see that shit here.

Enemies of free networks, free information exchange, bitcoin etc. Are salivating at the thought of getting our spaces illegalized and banned, and you betcha they will engage in it themselves over time. Make sure they don't do that.

This cannot be overstated. This is has 100% proven true for me.

I am not proud of this, and think this is one of my bigger flaws. I am an anxious person, I worry a lot.  A man should be couragious, and sadly, I am not (yet..there is still time to prove otherwise.)

I can say with certainty that social media and more generally the internet 10x the amount I would wrestle with. The weeks after abandoning social media I noticed an huge improvement in my disposition.

But this will not always be the case. Compatibility issues, mistakes, and all kinds of chaos is to be expected. This version of NDK introduces validation at the library-level so that clients built using NDK can rely on some guarantees on handled-kinds that events they are consuming comply with what is defined on their respective NIPs. An example?

I find it very interesting that so many web clients use Svelte. Would be curious to hear why.

I'm doing #breadwithme notes today. gonna post notes on my entire bread making process as I go throughout the day. it will be wordy and long so I can look back for my own reference in the future.

let's begin~

woke up this morning to the levain nicely risen and ready. I picked up the ramekin to take a photo and deflated it slightly. I'm looking for visible bubbles and for the top to be flat or slightly domed which shows that it's at its peak in the fermentation cycle.

https://image.nostr.build/fb3f3a41dc2d9a46438ba9c918b345222d7e7478ffc39adf8ca05ad55b153dad.jpg#m=image%2Fjpeg&dim=1080x1920&blurhash=%5D8HUqE%24z00x%3DE1%3FExnkD-nNH00Nx%7EVD*xv8%7Boh-.o%7Dxt_2t6D*M%7CIV%25L9aIs%251adD*%251%25LS2WDNxW%3BMxjbt6o%7DWYMyt7V%40&x=0120fb58e4dfd2eca7dd732d412680489a6be7b8e501dfe7700a698a84ad461c

I made this levain last night using 16g of my starter which I usually keep in the fridge. this time I made the levain from starter that's been on the counter for two days since I've been procrastinating on baking for three-ish days. Since my starter is pretty well established, it should be fine, but I'll be on the look out for sluggish fermentation and adjust accordingly.

To the 16g of starter, I add 32ml of water and 32g of flour, in that order. I like to have the water in-between the starter and flour since I find it mixes better but maybe it doesn't make a difference. I mix vigorously to make sure the starter, flour and water to make sure the starter is evenly dispersed. I cover it loosely and set it on my counter overnight which has a room temp of about 68 degrees.

next step - autolyse (mixing flour and water)

actual next step - unloading the dishwasher and cleaning up the kitchen a bit.

Ok, phew.


Thank you, I just had finished a 40k audiobook and was inspired to write an exhortation.


In a way NOSTR fits perfectly in the new atomized paradigm. Because, in theory, you could have a relay or relays that are only frequented by a small subgroup.

nostr:nprofile1qyvhwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnndehhyapwwdhkx6tpdshszxnhwden5te0wp6hyctkd9jxztnwdaehgu3wd3skuep0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qpqaz9xj85cmxv8e9j9y80lvqp97crsqdu2fpu3srwthd99qfu9qsgsatqmyk  mentioned something to this effect in a recent "Thank God for Nostr" episode. I'm paraphrasing but, the idea was a church runs a relay, and the community connects to that relay. The church relay is the only thing aware of the wider NOSTR network.


It seems to me that development in social networks, in some ways, is mimicking the IRL social network.

IRL society is growing more atomized over time. In the digital realm, people are splitting off into different social networks.

NOSTR, X, Mastodon, Bluesky, Facebook, etc. It seems to me that the number of alternate social networks is contining to grow. When just a few short years ago it was only Facebook and Twitter.

Lastly, I must continue to strive to be more like the many good examples that surround me.

I bought a KVM. It's very imporant and I wanted to let you all know.


Nostr, much like Bitcoin, is more about censorship resistance than privacy.


Yea, I'm not always the most positive person.


Yea, I know. I was just responding to a bunch of notes that I saw.


A lot of people you follow have me muted. Which is understandable, I definitely did something to deserve it.


Sometimes I feel I should share my journey from Bitcoin, to Bitcoin and Ethereum, to Ethereum, and finally back to Bitcoin.

Cool! So if I were a merchant accepting bitcoin payments this would be an ideal way to provide privacy to my clients? As well as future proof me in a sense to having to pay higher fees?


Even if that were true, I can't really fault someone for doing their job.

The vast majority of people you have a chance of convincing to use Bitcoin and Nostr are not here, they are out there on other platforms.

Regarding your point about the mirror. Yea, you're right, they probably could do that.  However, it takes time and effort to set those things up.

As well as posted AI Porn of Taylor Swift with the entire Kansas City fanbase.

And that was just one person!!


Can confirm. Hello?


That's fair. Maybe I should just stay the course.


It is fair to say that these isn't that much diversity. I see a lot of anti-state memes, pro-bitcoin memes, nostr dev talk, etc. But I feel that this is normal, because that's what the people on here care about.

How do you encourage people to talk about their other interests to manufacture said diversity? I don't see how you can.


Regarding the lack of content diversity. Couldn't this just be a factor of you not following enough people?

Since there are not algorithms to speak of I have found that you have to follow a lot more to find different content, and then curate.

I probably shouldn't opine given I don't fully understand the protocol. However, after thinking about it I don't think it's necessarily a good idea to add something like that to the spec.

Please correct me, but I thought that there was a range of kinds that can be used at the discrestion of the client?

If so, a client could have markdown and use event kinds that are unique to that application.

How is it an anti-feature?

I would think you can just transmit the plaintext and just leave it up to the client to render the markdown?

In a podcast, for example, an expert only has an hour to share his expertise. Under the assumption that, on average, podcasts are an hour long and the expert only appears on one podcast episode.

So the person watching takes the certainty that an experts has earned and applies it to when they (the viewer) goes and opines in their network.

The way lightning works is transactions get routed through channels (as I understand, correct me if I am wrong). So if we're all opening channels that does increase decentralization. Some nodes have more liquidity is inevitable and the same goes for channels.

I used be a big fan of Micheal Malice (I still am, actually) he is an author and anarchist. Anyone interested should look him up and read his books. I credit him as being the gateway drug to my own awakening. In terms of actually thinking and not being completely oblivious/ asleep at the wheel.

For a brief time I believed In anarchism the philosophy (not the more widely accepted definition of "chaos"). In some respects I still do. However, the more I think about governance and a state. I don't currently see how a society can exist without one.

Even if I find a society without a state desirable.

The other day at a D&D session. They were all poking fun at Bitcoiners. (They are all ethereans)

"Wah, we didn't get rich off the ETF" was one that I remember.

I didn't say anything, because what's the point?

The interesting thing to me is that their window into what bitcoiner consensus is, is misinformed.

You would think this be a little less the case these days considering in film and TV. Female characters are often attractive and intelligent.

Granted, these things don't operate in a vacuum.

And I am assuming that popular culture strongly influences people perceptions.

Yes. In part at the very least.


I've started studying computer science on my own. Plus also trying to learn math again. So spend a few hours each day on those if I can.

I'm working on trying to eliminate inefficiencies like those. Although I don't think watching a movie or playing a game once in a while is bad. I just think you should earn it.

The challenges of being a personality on Nostr


TIL the defintion of genocide. Essentially it is doing any of the following to eliminate a given group

- killing members of group
- causing serious or mental harm
- Inflicting life conditions with the aim to destroy group
- Preventing births of group
- transferring (via force) children from group to another

So. Knowing this. Anytime someone advocates kidnapping children for their own safety, is in fact, advocating for genocide.

And all those other things, obviously.

Agreed on the points about the west. And yes some hardship will remain. It's hard to imagine a world with none.

I don't think depression and suicide is new, it's been around for a long time. I just think these things are getting worse, and it's a red flag for me.

Ultimately, time will tell how all this will turn out, and it's out of my hands (not that it was ever in them)


Sure, it will make life very easy. That's not good. Hardship is what helps shape people into who they're supposed to be. We're not become more hardy as people, we're becoming weaker. Softer.

Depression is at its highest and growing. Suicide too. It's getting the point where no real effort is being made to make people not want to die. Instead we're helping people die. That's just one data point, in fairness. But I think it's important.

Plus this is based on the assumption that all advancements in tech will lead to improvements in perpetuity. Which is not likely, because all things are subject to diminishing returns.

I do agree that quality of life was not higher back in the day. I agree that having access to information is good. But there is something else about how life is now that is soulless.

Also you can't go back, so I'm not really advocating for that.

This link is relevant for my previous note about Cashu. This describes a variant of Chaumian Blinding by David Wagner, a professor at UC Berkeley and Cryptography researcher. Ecash is based on this, not the original definition of Chaumian Blinding.


Let's learn about Cashu:

From their own documentation, Cashu is an Chaumian ecash system built for Bitcon.

Chaumian refers to a technique called Chaumian Blinding. In short this technique allows a transaction to be carried out without revealing the parties involved on either side of the transaction.

Cashu is a protocol. Kind of like how Nostr is a protocol, or Bitcoin. This way anyone can develop tools that can talk to any other tool that implements the same protcol.

For the record, I'm probably, at most,  wrong about everything. And at least, most things.


I don't know if that's true. I would love to believe that, I really would.

Was Hitler valuable?
Stalin?
Terrorists?
Degenerates of every stripe?

There are some who many would agree that is not the case. Not even to mention the people above, or people like them, would have the same feeling about you or I.

And if the mighty think you are not valuable, what are you going to do to stop them from implementing whatever machinations they have in mind for you?

Living a life where your useless is not exactly a future I am excited about for myself, or for anyone else for that matter.


But also an increase in useless people who can't contribute meaningfully. This are relegated to being supported via UBI or whatever. Then you have people who are have never fed themselves. They only have ever been able to eat by taking.


Humans need goods. Food, clothes, housing,  tools, etc.


Additionally, I don't think we really have "AI" yet anyways. But even those are not going to necessarily lead to human flourishing.


I guess technically I'm a hater. It's not that simple though.

 I can see that some of the fear mongering is an obvious attempt to make it inaccessible to plebs (can't have a repeat of the internet can we?) In this sense I'm for acceleration.

But I also think that it will ultimately contribute to the continued decline of human quality.

"I don't want to tell you want to do. I just want to make it impossible for you to do what you want to do"


Sweet! I didn't know about this.


It's the little adjustments here an there that ultimately have made the biggest differences for me.

I have done a decent job of just going with the flow and not being too much of a tryant to myself.

One of the things I want to put into practice is leaving my phone at home more.


I've been spending the last few months cleaning up my tech usage.

On the internet I deleted most of my social media, except linkedin (sadly I feel like I need this currently). Most of my subscriptions. For fun I read or learn (Currently computer science and math)

My computer I have quit most of my video gaming (just the occasional single player game, when I've been a very good boy). Instead I play board games with my family.

My phone (still on android for now) I've deleted most of my apps. I think at one point I had ~100 apps down to 50. Most of which are the default Google apps, that I don't use.

Still so much more to do.

It has been a challenge. It's feels like trying to quit fast food and only eating healthy food. So much of what we consume is designed to be addictive in some way or another.

I have often thought about this. Not specifically the obedience aspect. More about how I have noticed that I don't enjoy music as I used to.

I have wondered if, at least in part, that having unfettered access to music has in a way cheapened it. I remember that I used to buy an album, and I would listen to it for weeks and weeks. Now I churn though music. Granted I could just pace myself, but the platforms do not lend themselves to this kind of behavior IMO.

Discovery is different too. It was a skill, maybe even an art, that each person has to develop. Now we don't, or at least I feel I don't have to anymore.

The question is: is that a reflection on me or the tech?

One of the draw backs of living in a bubble.

Things like the experience discussed are always a great reminder to me that the vast majority do not know anything about Bitcoin. Or at least very little. Not that I know much more.

On top of that, most of them are not curious, outsource all of their thinking or have too much pride and are incapable of any meaningful introspection.

You can insert anything else in bitcoins place and it all still works.

It's fair to say I am probably just as guilty of the same flaws. Regardless, these types, in my view, are not worth engaging with.
