Been programming to edm lately

Saw a puppet show in Austin that was an amazing live production of a family traveling the Oregon Trail. Only puppets (surprisingly!) would let you experience - live - the audacious scale of the journey. Then the director had to ruin it by explaining that the moral of the story was “the white man’s insatiable thirst for more things that don’t belong to him.”

One of my favorite things about nostr as is today is that it feels relatively private.

I can't use twitter anymore. They've tuned the "actively viewing" parameter of the reward function *way* too high. My feed was almost entirely videos of random attacks even though I kept telling it I didn't want to see those.

Super happy @ek is our first eng hire! https://stacker.news/items/179499

Is this a reasonable approach to algorithms on nostr?

Nostr already has an "algo" all relays use to order events. The algo is "sort by created_at in descending order." What I want is a way to ask relay...

From today's SN newsletter: If you've been struggling to comprehend nostr, stop thinking about it as decentralized social media and start thinking about it as less centralized social media. Nostr makes application backends interchangeable and encourages using multiple backends simultaneously. That's it. It isn't decentralized in the way Bitcoin is. But, more importantly, it isn't centralized in the way Twitter is either. It's less centralized *enough* that nostriches aren't dependent on a single centralized entity and thus applications built on nostr have significantly altered incentives. Someone I'm forced to respect (me) once tweeted: > Unless a technology changes incentives, it merely helps history repeat faster. Nostr changes incentives. What comes next isn't a digital utopia, but its harder to predict than you think. Pura Vida!

#[0] is there a way to prevent needing to reload the Alby extension repeatedly on Snort?

Woke up excited to continue hacking on my toy nostr relay, booger. Today is newsletter day tho so hacking will have to wait.

@nostrtechsupport how to get alby to not need to reload in browser clients?

The ideal abstraction when programming is removing the need for one.

Have any relays made credible attempts at bayesian spam filtering yet?

Is #[0]’s golang relay the best golang nostr relay? Looking to hack together a relay in golang but want to avoid starting entirely from scratch.
