Which nostr relay libraries support the 10002 events that are part of Gossip/NIP-65?

@37signals Would be super useful for @heyhey to be able to generate masked emails similar to Firefox Relay. What would give it a leg up on Firefox Relay is deeper integration into Hey, so emails sent to masks don't appear to all come from "_____@relay.firefox.com" for example 
Naaaah, I don't like this one bit. Stay in your lane #Firefox

New layout for the Topics feed in Agora!
The focus is to better emphasize the post content and upvotes/likes, and put less emphasis on the poster's profile, since the "Friends" feed is where the identity of the poster generally matters more to the user.
Incredibly fun fact, had no idea that's what the literal translation is, and it makes it 10x funnier
"One of the most used slang words in Mexico is calling someone a 'pendejo'. While the word 'pendejo' literally means 'pubic hair' it's the equivalent of calling someone 'stupid' or an 'asshole'"
Well said 
“This is hilarious. It appears that Twitter is DDOSing itself.
The Twitter home feed's been down for most of this morning. Even though nothing loads, the Twitter website never stops trying and trying.
In the first video, notice the error message that I'm being rate limited. Then notice the jiggling scrollbar on the right.
The second video shows why it's jiggling. Twitter is firing off about 10 requests a second to itself to try and fetch content that never arrives because Elon's latest genius innovation is to block people from being able to read Twitter without logging in.
This likely created some hellish conditions that the engineers never envisioned and so we get this comedy of errors resulting in the most epic of self-owns, the self-DDOS.
Unbelievable. It's amateur hour.
