 I’m sorry, unsigned data cannot be trusted, no matter if it’s coming from a server I signed saying I trust.

We’ve tried that before; that’s actually the current trust model.

 I thought the same, then realized we’ll already have a nostr track at OFF and also didn’t work with the premise of “new continent”.

I still think Argentina is a fantastic idea but I might be seen as biased

 “A social app protocol” 
 This is the type of “long-tailed” feeds I’ve been dreaming of.

It’s beautiful to see all this coming together, building elbow-to-elbow with you bunch of psychopaths

 Fountain is now100x better.

Probably more.

This type of feed is what I’ve been dreaming off for a long time.

Still a lot of work to be done; this new foundation unlocks a LOT of incredible new possibilities.

Well done, @merryoscar 👏

 For example, imagine I create a clip of a show you’ve never heard of.

You follow me, so the clip shows up in your feed.

You listen to the 20-second clip from Nostrudel, or Amethyst, or Coracle.
You love it, and want to hear the rest.

You push one button from Nostrudel; “Add to playlist”; later, when you open up Fountain, the episode is there, waiting for you.

Short-form into the long-form.

 Add a NIP-31 alt tag, sir! 
 The short-form is the discovery channel.

This content-type (aka kind) soup is how nostr changes the game for content distribution.

A very welcome change from Fountain!

 Simply REFUSING to be bored or pigeonholed, and being ruthless about it, is such a simple hack to live a good life.

I often remember that Peter Drucker wrote 1/3rd of the books he wrote by the age of 65; 2/3 came after.

 damn, thanks for the massive zap, sir! 
 what's the current best way to write long form on nostr? hablas? 
 yeah, you should give a try to highlighter's experience -- it's Substack-level of quality (or at least that's what I'm aiming for) 
 Can you give me some examples of how it’s still clunky? Would love to fix whatever you are finding! 
 nak is quickly becoming the superapp that will try to capture nostr

Say NO to nak
Say NO to nostr centralization

 make a —pos one; calls vitalik and asks  him to confirm before publishing 
 In an open protocol, clients should behave much more defensively 
 HAHAHAAA 
 YakiHonne needs to implement delete events 😅 they should read your post, @rabble ! 
 “Smart” widgets being the latest one; a reinvention of HTML, completely unspeced with no input from any other devs whatsoever. It’s basically a proprietary spec wrapped in a nostr event.

Luckily some devs are working on a standard way of doing something similar with hypernotes and HyperCards from @nielliesmons and @Paul

 What if you could tag a new post declaring that you would like it to show up in the main timeline...

 Hi, do you have any client that allows to set when a note to be published?
Thanks. 
 Yes, shipyard.pub 
 Haha; these are deletes 😅 
 possible you might have a bad p-tag in one of your follow/mute list (like a t-tag)

many (most?) clients try to parse the non-hexpubkey as a pubkey, they fail and they give up; I've seen it a bunch of times where I try to follow someone, it *looks* like it worked, but then I see my list wasn't updated because of it

overloading kinds with a bunch of different meanings leads to these issues, but the root problem is that most nostr devs don't code defensibly enough 
 there is no red,
there is no blue,
there is bullshit and there is truth

 After five months of abusing my Q1 on a daily basis, the batteries gave out.

RIP 🪫🪫🪫

Fucking insane; five months with 3 AAA with daily use.

This thing is by an order of magnitude my favorite hardware signer.

 CONVERT STRESS INTO COMFORT

One of my favorite things about working out is monitoring my inner dialogue.

Particularly when conditions are suboptimal.

“I didn’t sleep well”, “it’s too hot”, “I don’t have time; I need to go”

My mind gives me all the reasons to STOP, with a heavy correlation with going into apnea or deep, heavy breathing.

Training the mind to accept this inner dialogue and keep going regardless of it feels very similar to Vipassana.

 Yes. I think they are basically the same idea arrived to by different means and with distinct tools.

 Wikifreedia 0.0.9 has been released

By the mighty craftsmanship of  @fiatjaf, who I hear should be glamorized, as well as his ideas, this version drops Markdown in favour of Asciidoc.

 no, I just didn't update the header, but it's on 0.0.9

markdown renders well in the asciidoc renderer, so it's backwards compatible 
 Merging PRs into the NIPs requires implementations.

There’s a PR with the switch that’s been waiting for two months for implementations to be able to merge

The NIPs repo is DESCRIPTIVE. 
 Can you give me an example? 
 Yeah, a couple of years ago I started writing a book; immediate reached out for Markdown and within a couple of days I had migrated everything to Asciidoc

 I am working on adding nut-zap withdraws to npub.cash right now.

 you mean to which pubkey senders should nutzap p2pk-lock? they should look at the 10019 kind's p2pk; senders shouldn't even try to look at the 37375 events.

There can only be one 10019 (since 10k <= x < 20k kinds are not param-replaceable)
