There is no singular evil cabal. Only a Conspiracy of Self-Interest playing out repeatedly ad nauseam throughout time. Perhaps Bitcoin can realign incentives in such a way that this law of human nature will serve society rather than degrade it.

Invisible Forces

The Conspiracy of Self-Interest

Either testnet coins are the rarest things on Earth, or I’m doing something wrong. 🙃

Having issues with the NostrDB #Damus build. It’s showing an outdated profile. Wondering if this is all Damus users or just me. Mind helping me figure it out? Which profile pic are you guys seeing for me? And are you using the lastest TestFlight Damus release? Thanks! A) Animated Nostrich B) Purple Moose

#Damus update reverted my profile. C’est la vie. Nostr is fun 🍻😂

NotABot Stats Update In all, 162 accounts participated, 63 led the pack by completing the assignment and becoming verified NotABots, and 33 of those took it a step further by reciprocating at least once. Along the way our progenitors collectively dished out 260 verifications to get things rolling. Points will be awarded accordingly. I’ll be setting up a Nest to meet with anybody interested in discussing the future direction of NotABot, share what worked and what didn’t work in terms of developing an app like this entirely on Nostr, and to solicit your feedback about what you’d like to see more of. If there is any curiosity about how I did any part of it technically, I will gladly answer all questions. I very much appreciate everyone’s patience. Back in January, somebody asked about our New Year’s resolutions. Mine was to stick to my academic plan. As much as I’ve wanted to throw that out the window and work on Nostr, the most important promises we make are to ourselves. I also always prioritize my IRL friends and family, and my health as we all should. I’m beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel though, and I can’t wait to get back to building stuff for ya’ll. PV, frens… Participants: 162 - Gave at least 1 verification - Includes Progenitors Leaders: 63 - Gave at least 5 verifications - Received at least 5 verifications - Non-Progenitor Leader (Reciprocators): 33 - Gave at least 5 - Received at least 5 - Gave at least 1 reciprocation - Non-Progenitor Progenitors: 5 - Gave at least 1 - Progenitor Progenitors handed out 260 verifications. Cheers to @Tico 🇨🇷 @𝕾𝖊𝖗 𝕾𝖑𝖊𝖊𝖕𝖞 @anton @bigmarh @The Fishcake (nostr.build) and everybody who figured it out early on and then coordinated with others to include them in the chain.
