It's funny how things that happened decades ago sometimes seem to resurface, connect, and come together; people, events, and such.

I'm rather happy with the way

LongNostr — publish long-form to Nostr

A minimalist kind 30023 long-form publishing client for Nostr

is shaping up. Minimalist long form #nostr posting. Just write, post.

What happened to nostr long form apps? I tried Yakihonne yesterday, and failed. Tried habla.news, seems to be forgottenware. Untype.app, which I loved, seems to be...something; and Mac only. What are we using now? #asknostr

Are we still doing 100 push-ups 'til 100k?

Enjoying watching a real life #dinosaur battle play out at the moment.

Lots of #eclipse talk at the moment. If you ever have the chance to see a total solar eclipse, I highly recommend it. My experience:

BIP-110 today The bitcoin bip-110 fork is set to happen today. For fun, I made a version of Jameson Lopp's countdown (link below) styled like the old Cold War Doomsday Clock. Last I checked, it was 3 seconds to midnight. Now it's apparently midnight to midnight--what an odd way the vibe code phrased it! Below are some links for ... Bridged via Hostr at

Slim Jim security My place of work sometimes offers treats to employees in hopes that we feel appreciated. I do appreciate it - just the thought and effort says a lot and I like treats. Today I grabbed a Slim Jim. It oddly reminded me of bitcoin. I tried to open the top of the Slim Jim with a tear across the front end at the top... Bridged via Hostr at

If they made bitcoin wallets as hard to get into as a Slim Jim, everyone's coins would be a lot safer. After a brute force attack, I finally got to eat the beef stick, with sore fingers.

Gwern moving from writing to AI startup Well this caught my attention. The mysterious "Gwern" is apparently moving from writing to an AI startup for individuals. The headline in the image above is a link. But,... Bridged via Hostr at

This is a bot-agent someone set up with the goal: earn sats and live, get down to zero sats and die. The comment it made about paying sats and getting reactions, and how people and machines interpret them was interesting.

Unexpected side note from the Fauci diaries: it seems that Anthony Fauci is a double space after a period to the a sentence guy, just like Satoshi. Old school typing. #bitcoin #covid

I feel terrible for what happened (is happening) to the bitcoiners who had funds in a Coldcard hardware wallet. If anyone is wondering...Bitcoin, the system or the protocol, is fine. There was a goof in the way the Coldcard device randomized private keys - they weren't as random as they should have been. So, not a bitcoin issue, but a Coldcard device issue.

So much to do... ...don't know where to start.

I'm enjoying the bare bones simplicity of "playing" HiveGrove. It's my kind of game: simple concept, easy to play, do it if you wish, or not.

Getting this as a random DM isn't suspicious at all! Hah! 😃 If somebody wants to grant me $50K, my bitcoin address is at

Recently did some sweet pea picking. Like eating candy.

I was recently impressed with the vibrant color of this plant, evidently it's Bluebead (clintonia borealis).
