GM 🌞 So pumped. There are so many amazing things coming up in the next few months...

GM 🌞 A beautifully written counterpoint to the current fever dream we’re all living…

Tré Cool is one of the most underrated rock drummers ever.

GM 🌞 Build something new today.

It really pisses me off that agents ruined en/em dashes. I used them all the time before LLMs came along and now, I'm having to train myself to stop so that people who don't know grammar won't think I'm AI slop.

Genuinely curious what everyone's thoughts are on product analytics in the apps you use. I think most teams building in the nostr/bitcoin/freedom-tech space are a hard-no without thinking about how you could do them well (i.e. privacy-first, opt-in only, etc). A lot of people complain about the quality of Nostr apps but, the truth is, it's nearly impossible to build a high-quality product that delivers real value without having at least some idea of how folks are using a thing. Trolls, gtfo. I'm only interested in thoughtful or thought-provoking responses.

GM 🌞 An amazing use for LLMs is to give them github URLs for open source projects you're unsure about the quality on (or whether they might be unsafe) and ask them to do a full review. GPT 5.4 on extra high is a phenomenal reviewer.

Quietly released Nostr Doctor yesterday evening. The hope is that this simple tool will help everyone to do the basic housekeeping on their accounts and data to make sure they continue to have great experiences using nostr as the protocol and clients change over time. Would love to hear your feedback if you think there are other tools we should add to it. Huge thanks to @hzrd149 for doing all the heavy lifting!

GM 🌞 I've been dying to play with Karpathy's autoresearch tooling so this morning I installed Pi and the autoresearch plugin and put it to work on optimizing roundtrip encoding time on my already tweaked fork of @jb55 's notepack binary note encoding... It found a ~28% improvement in ~1 hour of experimenting. 🤯
