I normally wouldn't run a lightning node on a cloud server, but when you have multiple nodes you can move funds in realtime between environments with different levels of security.

#note1w9v…km52

2025-04-03 19:00:57

new high availability lightning node setup:
- core-lightning node on a VPS
- swapped the bitcoind blocksource with sauron (esplora plugin)
- created a load-balanced nginx config that has 3 upstream esplora nodes: my node at home over wireguard, blockstream.info, mempool.space
this is slick because it makes running lightning nodes a breeze, no crazy storage requirements needed on your server.

you can use nostril https://github.com/jb55/nostril
creating an event will generate a random key if you don’t specify one. nak probably has something like this as well.
nostril uses libsecp256k1 directly, nothing fancy.

#dave was going to be our april fools joke but the more I work on it the more I realize how amazing this is as an anonymous lightning LLM frontend. I totally went offroad and am 100% focused on making working on a prototype instead.
dave is the nostr assistant variant in damus, but there's no reason we couldn't have a standalone iphone/android app that uses this backend as well. starting to think this is a bigger product than damus itself.

the more I think about it the less I think so. ecash adds complexity which is just not necessary.
the simplest thing I can think of is SHA2(nsec + "lnzap") as your deterministic, anonymous token (or any random 32 bytes of data). then you can just use that token for all requests.

2025-03-30 19:21:20

cloudflare opened sourced their rust proxy tech, seems like a solid foundation to build on top of for #lmzap. looks like a hackable nginx.
the goal for lmzap is that the api should work exactly like openai's, gated by lightning payments. I want something super reliable. this seems perfect for that.

oh weird it does include chat... prompt was:
"I am building something like https://openrouter.ai (llm proxy) but anonmyized + lightning pay-per-query and/or balance + top-up. it will be zero-signup. you simply pay a lightning invoice to get a token which you can use for subsequent requests.
I want to build a nice landing page for this website. I got the domain lmzap.com (a zap is another word for a bitcoin lightning microtransaction )
can you build something for me to give me a few ideas?"

could index about words like we do note contents

2025-03-30 16:50:38

expanded nostrdb nip50 search to profiles, so you can query like so:
{"search":"jb55","kinds":[0]}
and get profiles matching that name. #dave wanted it so I added it for him.this will allow him to know what you're talking about when you say "show me posts by joebob"
we will likely need web of trust scores in nostrdb soon, so it can return profile results ranked by trust...

That arrow shows when the video fails to load for any reason. That particular bug is when the video is working then stops working.
There are other reasons:
- no accept-range header
- video is encoded in a pixel format, container format, or codec that iOS doesn’t like
Most common is these two. They aren’t really a bug, they are a nostrability issue

yeah ux would be just select ollama provider since it is a standard endpoint

2025-03-27 20:12:21

another cool thing is if you're using ollama locally on your macbook on a plane, and you have no wifi connection, this will still work.
Everything in notedeck is offline first. The question gets sent to the local model, the model then responds with a tool query ({query:cats, limit:3}),
notedeck parses this query, understands it, queries the local notedeck database, formats a response and send it back to the local ai.
the local ai then takes those formatted notes and replies with a summary.
this all happens back and forth locally on your computer.
how neat is that!?

@jack's idea

2025-03-26 13:00:57

The power of the LLM is limited by power of the tooling you provide it. nostr enables dynamic querying and nostrdb enables fast local views of data.
This combo will make dave much more powerful than grok when it comes to an agent that can assist with finding stuff on social networks.
But dave is not limited to the social protocol, it will have access to all kinds of note types and outbox model.
What if we got it to crawl nostr relays looking for interesting content? So many possibilities.

I can do 1000s of nostrdb queries on the UI thread at 144fps+. it's a nice setup.
