I love Nostr for its slower pace of communication, which is already set when you should sign events before sending them. Even a bit slower than in old forums with their lack of true real-time notifications

Spiral dynamics seems another Maslow's pyramid for neurotypical individuals, but covered into evolutionism. I think, main problems with it are:
1. What is "definition of done" for each level of complexity until it can leverage to new level of complexity? What if previous "levels" is developed for more after new level reaches its local maxima? For example, "cultural" level can evolve while lacking sufficient medication (for example, individual rituals and languages), autism does not totally block from integration into society. Thus properties from very different levels of complexity may be integrated at different stages of life.
2. Worldview complexity is not cognitive and functional complexities. The former may be ahead of the latter and vice versa. In beginning of 2010s I had deterministic worldview while most of knowledge and tools were experiential leveraged by magical thinking, not even complex logic was involved.
Since these unresolved problems of any hierarchical foundation I've come to Platonism-like foundation for worldview with different abstract "elements".
Cried at night for the first time in 20 years


That's how the New Renaissance starts from early Y2K Medieval with fading "cyberpunk". For me decentralization is a whole mindset. There are also nanoboards, stg, over-exploitation of hyper-centralized resources if you should use them for some purpose (like work), async remote work culture. What started as simple independent life individualism, it then evolves in more complex/progressive way. This does not happen suddenly one day though, this is long-term continuous trend. And it's not always about one real variable.

If intellectual work is done properly, it won't require much synchronization. Coding and designing, for example, is almost done in solo productively. Pair programming is rarely needed (especially in AI age).

The previous and the current year are opportunities for async remote work.
I was taking plain text notes for 2 years. This worked fine when I had few unique notes and some repetitive notes. Then, after I experienced more moments in my life, this became cumbersome to take them day to day. I tried to split notes by banger and cute sections at some point. This eased note taking and reading them. I even could fit short fictional story in between them. But at the end of the year, I felt fatigue again. Too many things were repeating in my text book, text notes was feeling less interesting to catch with them.
I also do handwritten note taking. However, it retained only for celebrations.

I'm not scared and happy to share my thoughts on 2026 year publicly. This year was the most nervous and harshest since 2020. Poverty, uncertainty and hardship of finding a job with which I can live more than a slave with the only end. Several doubts if I do thing in right and optimal way in big and hard tasks without certain boundaries in a legacy system. While I was doing these things, my motivation was bumpy, sometimes going to extremes of "I won't do job today, it's completely worthless" and "I can implement this right and quickly because it's very fun and complex". Several electric blackouts, rent price increasing, eshurt blockades. When these waves combined into polycrisis moments, I went to think that my life is completely worthless. But every time I was close to the darkness, it felt that the Angel woke me up. Since this I have released that life still has meaning, until you literally has nothing to pursue your own path for your credo/(para-)ego. That's also why open communities and personalization simultaneously matters, like what I have found in Nostr. Thank you very much, guys! You are cute, cool, smart, strong and kind! You post interesting stuff valuable for learning.
However, the journey was interesting for me. I became more like a cat person, sleeping longer hours per day (siestas for warm months and longer monophasic sleeps in colder months). I has fallen in love for playing chess with myself. Sometimes lucid dreams happened with which did like watching and acting in episodes. I has gained clearer understanding from software practice in why freedom is different from anarchy, why harmony and love is different from obedience and complete passivity. It is a time when even autistic person like me needed to break a doubt wall towards more sociability and integrate it with existing logical, mechanistic, probabilistic, fuzzy thinking styles. I started to maintain my own relay, modified it to make Nostr more interesting and prosperous. Kinda meta-game.
Merry Christmas and Happy 2026 year! I wish you peaceful, fun and interesting 2026 year. Make handcrafted stuff, make open source, self-host Nostr relays, your sites and AI models, participate in discoveries, keep your peace and curiosity. Only all the gods of the Universe know what is right, starting from the lowest levels and going further in infinitely open nature towards love. Time to extend (meta-)thinking to emergentism and multivariate/open reductionism. Forgot FOMO and cons retardation, chill, have a fun and do right thing =^.^=
P.S. Remember SOPA, PIPA and ACTA back in 2011-2013. They were threatening shared media and then the entire Internet. They did not happen...
What are your first programming languages from which you have been into coding?

I think, best definition of "cohesion vs. coupling" is:
cohesion is "how?"
coupling is "why?"
From this it's clear, why MVPs and new features start from spaghettish mess and then some of them lean towards ideal architecture of "low coupling + high cohesion", which promotes modules with single domain or functional responsibility and simplest interfaces between them as possible. Also this probably applies to social development of compressing the same entropy of conscious entity into single individual (from which the partial case is individualism), making social networks more intricate.
