this is specifically for papers. markdown or asciidoc doesn’t provide any tools for equations, etc. they just rely on latex which is a can of worms. Its nice to have a simpler canonical format for that
I get a lot of interactions on here, which seems to be killing my battery via push notifications.
Going to only turn on #onlyzap notifications. Using #bitcoin to save battery 😅.
Your Attention doesn’t have to be free, especially when it’s pushed to your phone.
we just need a minimum zap amount on our push notification server now... https://github.com/damus-io/notepush/issues/9

As performance optimization enjoyer i can’t help but look at the transformer architecture in LLMs and notice how incredibly inefficient they are, specifically the attention mechanism.
Looks like i am not the only one who has noticed this and it seems like people are working on it.

Lots of ai researchers are not performance engineers and it shows. I suspect we can reach similar results with much less computational complexity. This will be good news if you want to run these things on your phone. https://i.nostr.build/LFm0CEhOtaSXV5rq.jpg
These are neat, but feels like its optimizing a problem that shouldn’t exist. The paper I linked dropped half of the attention layers without any noticeable impact on performance. Architecture changes like that could have a much larger impact. Wish i had time to tinker with this stuff …
still mind blowing to me that my lightning node sends me cryptographically verifiable receipts of cytographically verifiable transfers on a decentralized L2 network of computers that are on top of a cryptographically verifiable ledger built on exahashes of proof of work.
wtf is even happening
definitely. we’ll need something different, and a different internet as well.
keeping your bitcoin node in sync would be annoying. ecash actually might make the most sense?
yeah integrating lightning into damus purple was wayyy easier than apple pay. especially with lnsocket/lnmessage to talk to a node directly over {web,}sockets
I don't even see how decentralization is possible at this point just by looking at their architecture. it's completely controlled centrally. I don't see how they are going to magically decentralize it to any useful degree.
> mocking other projects that have been way more successful is wrong
that's where we disagree. I will happily mock bad designs. should I give praise to facebook because of their excellent marketing? what? no, I will criticize nonsense and bs marketing, especially when the project is decentralized in name only.
nostr needs maybe a couple thousand dollars a month to keep the lights on. Clients already exist and running relays is insanely cheap. Damus will keep working even money runs out. You can’t say the same about bluesky
one thing I think about is how the centralization of their funding might have affected their design. their architecture looks like what happens when you have teams that divide themselves into micro-services.
there were plenty of clients before jack arrived, even damus. nostr worked fine. this idea that nostr needs 1m per month to survive is extremely misleading and simply wrong.
I feel like you spend more time complaining about nostr than contributing anything of value. What are you doing to improve these weaknesses? Some of us are very much aware of these issues and are grinding away to improve them.
The governance issue is so dumb, there is no governance. Theres a few devs who have control of the nips repo. Guess what! You can ignore the nips repo, i left it a long time ago and have started to spec things on our own. People who find our specs useful can implement them (image metadata, private zaps, quote highlights). All rejected from the nips repo but *gasp* they still exist and people implement them.
Not sure why i waste my time with complainers, but i am going to stop wasting my time now. ✌️

I’m tired of them talking about aliens. So they are underwater now. just fucking show us then. Let’s see some high res pictures, videos, and radar data.
Really? It’s because they aren’t showing us any solid evidence, just blurry videos and photos. Interest will come when there is 1080p+ quality video and high quality radar data to study.
Not to mention shit can be fabricated with ai now, which makes things even harder. It’s going to take a lot more high quality evidence before people start believing. Not just “trust me bro” anecdotal evidence.
