Why Nostr? What is Njump?

Folks everywhere are vibecoding the next viral, marketable thing to "make it big." Meanwhile, I’m pretty done with the whole "make it big" thing and, honestly, starting to feel done even with trying to fit the "average tech Joe persona" (whatever that is).



What’s next after you're done "chasing the dream" and "looking for meaning"? Well, life happens.
Personally: going through books, drinking my coffee, joking around with my wife, petting my cat, refreshing on A Tour of Go, chatting with OSS folks on Matrix about PGP claims/proof, experimenting with jj, and trying to see if I can combine it with Nostr's NIP-34.
Small things. All meaningful to me. For today, not tomorrow.

I couldn’t care less about what’s NGMI, or if anyone thinks WAGMI. I’m not trying to outdo others, not trying to get rich, not trying to "win" or build the greatest, cleverest software. I’m too old to believe I’m smart enough to operate outside the system, and too bitter to waste time trying to outplay the sociopaths inside it, regardless of their respective levels of competence or incompetence.

So maybe… optimise for your own experience instead?
Build things you like.
Use the things you build.
Create your own meaning and enjoy the ride.
Life goes fast. Stop chasing the ever-elusive tomorrow (it will come one way or another) and start enjoying the day.
