I asked Claude to do a usability review of nosta.me. It spent 15 minutes to successfully set up a profile and put together a nice usability report. Prompt and report are included in a doc under the video. If you're working on a web app, I recommend doing this to get a good baseline review. Just let it run during your next coffee break. Also, here's the account it set up:

Nostr profiles. Nice and easy.

Spent the weekend with my son on the Runway 48-hour hackathon and we came up with this goofy short-film. Was a great chance to tinker with all the latest AI video/image/sound tools. Tons of limitations still, but also very powerful (and fun).

Have you tried Saving Satoshi to learn bitcoin tech & coding? Would love to hear what you think.

Saving Satoshi

Explore the mysteries of Satoshi and learn about bitcoin along the way.

One of the best parts about open-source bitcoin is collaborating with so many friendly, interesting, and talented people from all over the world. Truly borderless and permissionless.

So if we want scaling and we're strict about self-custody, then is bitcoin + lightning + ark a promising combo moving forward? Settlement, interconnectivity and payment hubs?

Fully in event planning mode at the moment. Between the Designathon, Oslo Freedom Forum, BTC Prague, and Presidio Bitcoin events, there's a lot to organize in the Bitcoin Design Community. If you're looking for opportunities to tinker on fun bitcoin stuff with fun people, take a peek at the Designathon (global), Bitcoin 2025 hackathon (global), and the upcoming BTC++ (Austin) one.

Thanks to all who chip in on making these events happen.

Nice one.

Penpot released design tokens. Another great iteration of this open-source design tool.

Penpot is the first tool to integrate native design tokens. A single source of truth to improve efficiency and collaboration within Product teams.

How about a comment screener (like Hey)? New comments on your posts are first in an inbox. If you accept it, or whitelist the person, it shows up for you. Others can choose whether to see all or only approved comments.

Hard to make a better case for bitcoin as a credibly neutral global money than the global news section of the HRF financial freedom report.

Is this good UX?

To all the Nostr builders, how is the Nostrability project working out in helping improve interoperability? Is it something you participate in?

It was a pleasure presenting the Open Design Guide (http://opendesign.guide) last week at FOSS Backstage. It's an effort to provide a smoother path into open-source for designers. Interestingly, there were 3 other talks at the conference that brought up the same problem. The Canonical team did a survey and found that most designers don't realize open-source is a thing, many of the ones that do have no idea how to get started, and many who give it a try don't get far due to the steep learning curve. Let's make that a little easier.

"We've been successfully removing all friction from our apps — think about how effortless it is to scroll through a social feed. But is that what we want? Compare the feeling of doomscrolling to kneading dough, playing an instrument, sketching... these take effort, but they're also deeply satisfying. When you strip away too much friction, meaning and satisfaction go with it." Beautifully done:

Our interfaces have lost their senses
