It’s my birthday today and we took our 3 young boys to hibachi for the first time. They thought it was the best thing on earth. Their reactions were priceless. One of my all-time favorite birthday memories. I love being a dad 🥹
What if #nostr is just a way to get all of us to say what’s on our minds again but in a way that can’t ever be deleted, so that our impending AI overlords can use it against us? 🙃
Absolute banger of a talk by @rabble 👌🏻
My biggest takeaway is Nostr needs more product managers who know how to turn user feedback into a quality experience.
Any devs here want some product help?

I just realized I’ve not been posting here on #nostr because I’m so used to overconsuming social media.
I love Nostr because it feels like Twitter back in the day when people just posted whatever came to their mind.
At some point I stopped doing that and started self-censoring without even realizing it. I just stopped posting because I always felt gross trying to play the algorithm game. Instead I only consumed.
Now I’m only on Nostr (and occasionally LinkedIn for work), but I still have to retrain all those old habits.
So, here’s to creating more and consuming less 🍻
We need more content creators on Nostr.
So much unrealized potential for creators here.
Any recommendations on #nostr tools and resources made specifically for creators?
I want to start digging into this.
I had a Russian engineer on my team. He was like, “This is dumb.” And we were like, “Yep.” And then shortly after that we had to let him go because we weren’t allowed to pay him anymore.
I’m generally inclined to agree, but then I think about the number of people required for the Manhattan Project and how they pulled off keeping that secret for so long, and then some theories seem a lot less outrageous.
Maybe, but my understanding of how the Manhattan Project kept its secrecy was mainly through incentivization and compartmentalization. Basically everyone worked in small silos, unaware of what other groups were doing, and the risk/reward structure made keeping the secret an easy decision. Only a relatively small group had the whole picture and knew what they were really doing. From my perspective, the internet hasn’t made that strategy any less effective. If anything, it makes it easier to obfuscate with information overload.
I felt the same way. Then my dad started asking me about Bitcoin for the first time because of Trump. So there may be some positives we’re not considering.
