What did you do to fix that?

I started eating milk kefir and Kombucha which made a huge difference for me. I always suffered an intolerance to milk. This largely went away when I started drinking kefir. My wife used to do the most rotten farts that would stink out the bedroom, this was a problem for about a year. As soon as she started drinking my home made Kombucha they stopped smelling and haven't smelled in months.

High fees due to high transaction numbers would mean that there is an established ecosystem of lightning channels  with a mix of custodial and non custodial options. Spamming now risks stunting the development of this. Hi

They will acquire a significant portion then fractionally reserve it. They are the same beast as FTX, just more organised. They won't go bust in one cycle, they will manage draw downs through regulation and influencing monetary policy. When they do get exposed they will ensure that so manny people would get rekt, that the government will intervene like they did with gold.

Cramer’s job is to signal to the cantillionaires what is about to happen without being accused of insider trading.

You can’t be accused of insider trading if you’re wrong.

There is probably a ratio between on chain fees and cost of running a node (block size) that is an optimal trade off.

Saylor is a speculator betting on a paradigm shift. I'm talking about a proper economy.


Bitcoin is a paradigm shift from an economy where the money expands with economic growth, as if the economy is created ex nihilo, to an economy where the value of the money increases as the economy expands, as if shared resources are consumed in the creation of economic growth. Bitcoin aligns with the reality of being stewards of God's creation. Fiat reflects an attempt to be God ourselves.


Right. It's like the Bitcoin standard in 30 min to music

So, for the non technical... Is it pay to view?


It is a streaming service with zaps and you can log in with nostr. It was around before nostr so I think it's still a site rather than a true decentralised nostr implementation.   It is the kind of thing that nostr could develop a unique niche.

A nostr music player could allow content producers to be paid directly for their material. That would allow more diversity because content wouldn't be controlled by record labels.
In theory you could search other people's liked songs to discover songs you like.

Twitter has intellectual opinion
Google has smart home control and internet search (and increasingly login) and reviews
Facebook has friend and family network and market place
Uber has ride share
Air bnb has accommodation

But loyalty programs and online ordering are typically bespoke apps or cookies that store your details.

Companies don't want to give Google their data for competition reasons, so have an incentive to avoid data collection. A nostr login would also give a company access to users social media feed, allowing them to analyse publicly shared data to aid market research. Users would benefit from single login and maximising loyalty program participation. Providing user details can be secured properly, this could be a good way to get people onto the nostr protocol


We need to transition away from direct private key login. It's not only insecure and bad for onboarding experience, but it is also a bottleneck to this protocols development.

The majority of the web ecosystem is declining because a large percentage of people either don't understand what extensions are or haven't set them up.

No one is building native apps because they know that no one will use the app's private key for login.

Soon, there could be a security exploit, and keys may be leaked, resulting in headlines like "Nostr got hacked," and that will always stay with nostr.

All major clients must reach a consensus to establish a standard for disposable secondary keys.

How is this not a priority?

It's natural to think #cyberspace is a shitcoin at first glance because every other metaverse is a shitcoin. But cyberspace is precisely the opposite, as it was designed to make something legitimate, substantial, and consequential out of an idea that has been abused for decades by scammers and rent seekers.

Cyberspace is a protocol, like nostr. Cyberspace enables a metaverse that inherits all the properties of nostr, and instead of power hierarchies, thermodynamic energy is the impartial mediator which governs all interactions.

Just like how the internet protocol can't be monetized but websites using the internet can, cyberspace can't be monetized but your creative usage of cyberspace can. This is why no company, VC, or billionaire has created a proper metaverse yet. Because the true concept of the metaverse, as defined in science fiction of the 80's, is one where nobody can control the metaverse. It just exists.

Cyberspace simply exists. Nobody controls it. It is neutral 3D territory in an impartial digital space governed by thermodynamic energy. No admins can ban you. No authority can restrict you. It is a place of freedom, anchored in reality, and open for humans to use for whatever enterprises benefit them.

The risk is that clients funded by selling user data in return for showing ads out perform clients that don't.


I have noticed the same thing. More and more people are talking about issues that are Bitcoin, even if they don't understand Bitcoin yet.


I think nostr needs referral kits. The person referring can select relays to connect the new account to, or keep a default. The referral would automatically follow the person referring. It would be cool if global could be 3 degrees of separation, but that might be complicated to scale.


Hopefully Bitcoin will grow and strangle the funding of those who wanted him locked away and he can be pardoned.

A stand alone clone of Bopple. Which is a generic app that coffee shops can use to allow customers to place an order and that creates a user account so that users can get loyalty rewards.

If it was built on nostr it could automatically install nos2x to store their private key and set them up on nostr.

The benefit to the restaurant is that they would be connected with their users on the nostr protocol, not just while they are using the app.

nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 begged me to come up with this.

NOSTR is a set of agreements on a file system. Everyone indexes their own files using cryptography to describe under whatever name the data is published.

Because these names are random and unique, there is no conflict among the identities so they can all exist next to each other.

This means the data can be gathered and redistributed by anyone, and they don't have to concern themselves with indexing such that others know what to ask for.

You yourself can be such a relay, or  use any (multiple of) services out there to transmit your notes and other stuff to anyone who asks for it.

This Notes and Other stuff Transmitted Over Relays (NOSTR) protocol is not special because it uses public private key pair cryptography.

Its method of success among all attempts out there is realizing that the indexing part is not what is ultimately important in becoming an open standard; but the practical, concrete means used in applying the index amongst each other.

Complexity in integrating the protocol into other systems results in centralization of development. The consequence is a limited offer in software resulting in a no longer really open standard that is in the hands of those who facilitate the tools used to speak the protocol.

By being specific on its simple set up, NOSTR can be a new starting point to set up the infrastructure we use on the internet; where we are free to name, share, find and experience.

Good morning #nostr. ☀🫂

On September 11, 2001, I was living less than 7 miles away from the site of the horrifying attacks on the World Trade Center. I didn’t see or hear it happen, and wasn’t watching TV that morning, so I was informed by a phone call. One of the two planes had flown directly over my home and I didn’t even realize it.

I spent the next month in a state of shock and confusion, glued to cable news, radio, and the internet. Real-time online news at the time barely existed, so information moved at a different speed than it does today. The 24-hour networks didn’t know how to respond, so they just kept airing the same clips over and over again with non commercial breaks. There was so much bad reporting, and people taking advantage of the situation to intentionally spread misinformation and disinformation. Our governments were complicit in this, of course. We saw it happen right before our eyes just a couple of years later with the relentless march to invade an uninvolved country with an entirely fabricated reason. And yet we somehow accepted it as a nation and as a world, because we were conditioned to out of fear. I couldn’t believe others didn’t see what I saw, and realized just how easily people around me had been manipulated.

We were constantly reminded to say, “Never forget.” to honor those who died in the attacks on our country. I won’t, and I can’t. I lived through it all. But we should also #NeverForget how 22 years ago, we gave up our privacy and civil liberties, started a generation-long war, and accepted an ever-expanding surveillance state that was once only the domain of dystopian science fiction.

Finally, in this timeline, the technologies and tools have been built and handed to us that could begin to turn the tide against all of these abuses of power. I only hope enough of us use them to matter.


One horsepower is defined as the amount of power required to lift 550 pounds one foot in one second.

The maximum output of a horse is around 15 horsepower

The average deadlift for a male 21-year-old is 2.6 times bodyweight.  Depending on the weight class, deadlifts will range from 344lb to 582lb

It seems likely to me that there was once a man nicknamed 'horse' for his above average strength. He was used as the unit of measurement of power. Unfortunately for him, his feat has been lost to history.

So horse power is closer to man power than actual horse power

"Love God and love your neighbor" is not the gospel.

It is the law that we cannot keep perfectly--the law that condemns us. That is the bad news.

Christ, the God-man, kept it perfectly "for us men, and for our salvation." He succeeded where Adam (and everyone descending from him by ordinary generation) failed.

He paid the penalty for the sins of his people, and his people receive the reward of his perfect life. That is the gospel--the "good news."

Trust Him with your (eternal) life. Read [The Gospel According to John](https://www.esv.org/John+1/).

Follow. I tried but couldn't figure out how too


Yeah, I spend a lot of time with my wheels spinning...

I'm keen to look into optimising my nutrition and trying other strategies to maintain concentration.

I have been making sure I have a high protein breakfast like eggs which has helped a lot. I'm also trying saffron tea and keen to try other natural things too.

It is actually liberating to understand myself better, for much of my life I was unaware when I was struggling to get anything done.


“Make sure you’re not made ‘Emperor,’ avoid that imperial stain. It can happen to you, so keep yourself simple, good, pure, saintly, plain, a friend of justice, god-fearing, gracious, affectionate, and strong for your proper work. Fight to remain the person that philosophy wished to make you. Revere the gods, and look after each other. Life is short—the fruit of this life is a good character and acts for the common good.” —MARCUS AURELIUS

I'm in my late 30's and in the process of getting screened for inattentive ADHD.

It wasn't until a friend of my wife was diagnosed as an adult that I realised I was the same.

It's a bit confronting, after spending all of my life convincing myself I was normal, to accept that I'm wired differently.

I'm reminded of the quote from the atr of war

"If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle."

Sun Tzu

Interesting, I think zaps will decline in use for general social interaction. I think I can already see that apart from attempts to make only zaps happen. Zaps will allow nostr to become a bit of a town square with zaps replacing coins you might have given a begger or busker prepaid for goods and services, but hanging with friends won't typically involve monetary exchange.

I wonder if the ability to zap will improve the honesty of influencers or media. Currently media outlets get paid in aggregate and only have to produce enough good content to get people to buy a subscription. The rest they can make up with content that others pay to promote. The ability to pay for each piece of content  could change their incentive structure.

The Antidote to Nihilistic Narcissism
-------------------------------------

“He’ll have a long life as long as he doesn’t know himself.”

In Greek mythology, this was the prophecy concerning Narcissus. Narcissus is better known for how the myth ends. He falls in love with his own reflection, which is where we get the word narcissistic. The ending refers back to the initial prophecy. When he saw his own reflection, he didn’t recognize it because he didn’t know himself.

In the middle of the myth is Narcissus rejecting the love of everyone else. The order matters. Narcissus only fell in love with himself after rejecting everyone. He didn’t reject everyone because he was in love with himself, but rather he fell in love with himself because he rejected everyone. His only target for love was himself.

I bring up this myth because this is the intellectual path that so many people take. They cynically reject belief systems one by one until they are left with nothing else. Lacking anything else to believe in, they turn to themselves and become completely self-centered. They become nihilistic narcissists.

Bad Parenting
---------------
Look at the prophecy again. Narcissus will have a long life as long as he doesn’t know himself. Presumably, his parents made sure he didn’t know himself because Narcissus didn’t even recognize his own reflection. They did this with the best of intentions, to ensure he had a long life, yet clearly, a life staring into your own reflection is not exactly meaningful.

Think about what we tell our kids: “You can be anything you want to be.” “Go find what you’re passionate about.”

These platitudes specifically avoid giving children an identity. More subtly, not giving them an identity makes it harder for them to get attacked. We do this with the best of intentions, yet is this really what parents should be doing? To define yourself is an enormous burden, especially for children.

Nihilism as Default
-------------------
Think about the myth again. Narcissus rejected all would-be lovers.

Why?

He didn’t know himself. He didn’t have any basis by which he could even evaluate their fit. How could he since he had no self-awareness or self-understanding? He couldn’t solve for love because he didn’t know half the equation.

Identity is the basis of evaluating everything. Without grounding, nothing can be built. Without identity, belief is impossible and nihilism becomes the default.

The Appeal of Narcissism
--------------------------
Nihilistic narcissism is a safe position. Because you never have to stand for anything and never take a risk, you can preserve your own ego, preserve your intellectual life as in the prophecy. The appeal is in preserving what you have, your own self, however empty and senseless you become.

But nihilistic narcissism completely strips meaning from life. You may live a long life staring into your own reflection, but it’s not a very fulfilling one. Lacking any sort of external north star, you are left with an internal north star, which if you follow, becomes navel-gazing. Ironically, narcissism is the end state of not knowing yourself.

Such a place is one of profound despair. There is no meaning and all you have to live for is yourself. Is it any wonder so many people are depressed?

Parents, give your kids the gift of identity. Your job is to help them know who they are. This should be natural, since the kids come from you. By knowing you, they learn to know themselves. By showing them who you are, you are really showing them who they are. By participating with them in community you are showing them who they are. By telling them your family history you are showing them who they are. Tether them to your identity so they can find meaning. Give them the solid foundation of knowing themselves.

Because identity is necessary to a meaningful life.
