 What can Nostr do for your use case that legacy technology can't?

Also, have you looked into DVM... 
 Thanks for that Michael - is it this you're referring to: https://blog.iil.com/digital-value-management-system-dvms/ ?

What I was thinking nostr could do was to automatically have lots of user interfaces already built, and a simple protocol that anyone can implement to discover things - imagine if you could send a message on nostr about a "thing" you need,  like an analysis on a topic, and a service could pick it up, look for the "thing" IT needs from another service and come back to you? 
 Thinking about building services on NOSTR. Has anyone used NOSTR for machine-to-machine communication? Like service discovery type things? #asknostr #grownostr #agentsystems #betterworld #openprotocols 
 Your reminder to always move unsolicited emails asking to “jump on a call” to your junk folder. Help improve a friend’s spam filter! #GPTEmail #spam 
 Neat idea, I did think other text based models seemed a bit verbose! Thanks for sharing. 
 *unstructured text based solutions I should say. Not text LLMs. 
 do you pay when riding public transportation?

 Can’t bear the embarrassment of not doing that! 
 Faith in humanity restored.

After having several bikes stolen, this time a Good Samaritan found my bike, lock hanging off the frame and not locked to anything and decided to prevent it from being stolen!

 Been thinking about creating a "discuss this" (maybe similar to "disqus"?) OSS plugin for websites that uses NOSTR, but is dead simple to understand, and can be used without knowing what nostr is. Hoping to get to a state where each implementation is linked to the current web address (to discuss an article / paper / etc) and have users delightfully discover that they can use the same "login" (nsec) on other pages. Does something like this exist or is it worth giving a go? #nostr #foss #development #inspiration 
 Thanks! if it makes sense will try to develop it in the open on nostr, maybe others have some ideas for where to take it or how to improve it. 
 Someone started it already! Very excited to see - maybe I can contribute to that instead: https://github.com/carlitoplatanito/disgus 
 Hi there! I'm exploring Nostr as a platform to share my thoughts while maintaining peace of mind.... 
 Welcome! I did wonder if nostr having less spam and adult content is simply a matter of it having a smaller audience, and that we soon need a way to algorithmically filter content here too! (Maybe through small payments?) 
 I know, who cares and so on, but the haptic feedback in OpenAi's ChatGPT app is phenomenal. It re... 
 Agree! I can look away and know when it’s done thinking 🚀 I just wish they fixed the scroll

ALL custodial Bitcoin/Lightning wallets should be ecash wallets.

 Does anyone have an ELI5 on ecash? 🙏

 10 years ago today, we released a new version of Shnergle - a social app for browsing venues. Shame it didn’t go further. Fun time :-) #Grownostr

 Anyone wanna help me test my new app?

 Very neat - sign up and usage flawless! One note: the “cost” thing was a bit weird, it wasn’t very obvious why my prompt would “cost” 2 but I only had 1 available and the way to fix it was to reduce the steps. Maybe change the steps to be called cost or cost to be called steps or something 😃 https://image.nostr.build/ec23ba37136d8ef67518b4e469c3f90bc04fa9234b178d88587ce7842672d6cb.jpg
