Thread - Nostr Hypermedia

Our media calendar is starting next month: podcasts and long-form blog posts. The details of what we're working on will be much clearer as those emerge. For now I'll say: it's a peer to peer, encrypted, permissionless network of purely functional personal servers. A location/cloud-agnostic personal VM spread across as many machines as you'd like with automatic persistence of all events. An early use case I'm excited about is trivial-to-set-up, zero maintenance personal Nostr relays that run forever and are available to you anywhere.

Something about what you're describing reminds me of Ghost in the Shell. Basically a VM that exists everywhere and I'd assume uses a private key similar to nostr? Definitely following the project, man.🤙 The wizardry of tech always amazes me. It really is like magic. If you can imagine it, you can build it. It's the ultimate form of expression, IMHO. I do data conversions. Not as flashy as software development, but I always get a kick out of flipping data around like it's a rubix cube. It's nerd stuff... but it pays the bills.

Exactly! A VM that exists everywhere and you are identified by a keypair. Our far-future aspirations are very much scifi/ghost in the shell - that kind of thing is really inspiring. We'll have a blog post narratively describing our ideal future world before long :) I know what you mean about the fun of flipping data around. Even the smallest tasks are satisfying. Like you're a techno-wizard operating a bunch of tiny perfect machines.
