I used to have a rule for social media: good vibes ONLY. I wouldn't post anything that wasn't uplifting. When I break this rule, social media becomes a burden for me and for those I'm connected with. So I want to get back to it again. It's a very bloomer thing to do. GM & PV! Nostr is the best!

If you have called me brother in the past I'm not mad. I sincerely hope to build friendships deserving of the name. But that's quite a bond and takes a lot of sacrifice. I want people to appreciate the gravity of it.

If you cared to elect Trump, then pray — literally pray — for Trump's safety. The deep state has tried to murder him twice. What makes you think winning an election or even being installed into office will protect him? It won't. This is the final battle, because if the deep state doesn't win they will be dismantled. This is the endgame. So literally pray for the man and his family.

I think you mistake the protocol for the implementation. Catholicism is extremely consistent at a protocol level. I can go to almost any Catholic church in the entire world and experience the same Mass, even at the Vatican. That is the protocol. The implementation is the church, the people and priests there, how they operate, how they act, what decisions they make for their community, how they build trust, etc. Every church is funded by its community; no church gets money from the Vatican to operate. In this way each individual church lives or dies by its community. In this way it is as decentralized as it gets.
The Vatican rarely messes with the Mass and when it tries to there is global pushback. Resurgence in the Latin Mass has come from a grassroots interest, for example, not from the top down.

One thing I love about being Catholic is that the church's structure is very decentralized. We never have to care about the Vatican or the bizarre, evil, and bewildering things that go on there. Is the Vatican a disgrace? Yup. Is it just another example of the corruption of concentrated wealth and power? Yup. Does it change my faith or beliefs? No, it has nothing to do with them any more than Washington DC represents me as an American. My church exists through and for my community. I trust the people and priests there. If not for the internet we'd never even hear about the Vatican. It's a shame that the ostensible head of the church is so corrupt but I won't leave Jesus on account of Judas. Just my 2¢

You know what "radicalized" me?
In 2019 I started to become a Trump supporter and began to visit the donald dot win website. It was one of the few unfiltered places on the internet with so many like-minded people, and it was becoming exceptionally popular. During the election, it was the only place to get uncensored real-time updates, and the election fraud was being documented with a level of precision that was absolutely a threat if any of the evidence was brought to court. Yes, there was a lot of autistic bullshit, but there were real people on the ground showing what was happening, breaking down the voting statistics, and posting videos of election law violations.
Well, not long after the election, the FBI bullied the site owner into shutting down the website. This isn't the official story, but I watched it happen on the site itself; the site owner narrated the whole thing before the site went down. If you search for the site now, all you'll see is articles about how it was "a haven for violent far-right extremists" which is what you would expect from the protected communist propagandists who get to write the epitaph of every opposing voice the deep state silences.
Most of the evidence and data on that website was lost. Even when they spun up a new site to replace it, there were a lot of people who never went back and history that was never restored.
If nostr had existed back then, the site wouldn't have been shut down and a lot of that evidence could have been preserved.
After this I stopped fighting for a political ideology and began my journey into freedom tech.
I say "radicalized" as a joke, because there is nothing radical about fighting for our constitutional right to freedom of speech; the only thing that makes it noteworthy is the absolutely radical communist American government we live under that works so hard to make sure we don't speak freely, which is shocking, disgraceful, and evil to the highest degree.
I never want the government to censor anyone ever again. That's why I'm here. That's why I nostr.

When I went to Japan for nostrasia last year it was a horribly lonely place; luckily the conference was full of friendly people, but outside it I felt extremely isolated. I had meaningful interactions with only 2 Japanese people while I was there. There felt like a deep isolation due to language barrier, culture, and race. I'm curious about your take on this.

So there's this card game called Spot It. There are 55 cards each with 8 symbols on it. Typically the game is played where a target card is flipped up and players try to match the next card from their hand to the target card.
The interesting thing about Spot It is that every card shares exactly 1 matching symbol with every other card in the deck. This is due to a combinatronic trick.
The number of cards and symbols C are calculated like so:
C = q² + q + 1
And the number of symbols per card S is
S = q + 1
So, for any value of q you can figure out a set of symbols and cards that operate the same as Spot It.
Now, the thing that caught my attention while playing Spot It is how when I commit to playing a card, it completely changes the strategy everyone else must use, because now they must match their card to my card rather than the target card. Each card that is played totally resets the symbol matching process.
There are no turns. When someone plays a card, it creates a checkpoint in time that alters the game state and completely changes each player's strategy.
I have been interested in how to establish a chronology of events in a trustless way without a blockchain. I am curious if this symbol matching mechanism could be abtracted to a cryptographic operation where each commitment by a party changes the requirements for the next commitment. If the commitment is linked to an event or action, it could establish a definitive ordering of events even when no trusted clock is available.
There may be better ways to do this already, such as collaborative hash chains, but I still think the idea is worth exploring.
Another interesting aspect of this combinatronic trick is that you can visualize the set of cards and symbols with lines and points respectively. You can draw the points and connect them with lines such that each point has exactly S lines and any two lines may only share 1 point. It gets really difficult after q=2 but I did it for q=3 😅

I like questions like this. I'm no math expert but I enjoy trying to think through stuff.
I don't think you can get anything but a circle. Since the sphere is the same no matter how you rotate it, just forget about rotations and angles and imagine lowering the plane through the top of the sphere (or left side, or the right side, it doesn't matter which one you imagine because they are all the same). The plane is either tangent, outside, or inside. Those are the only 3 states the plane can be in. However "in" the plane is, the cut is always a circle.

Apparently "agile aerospace" has been a thing for a while and it's kicking butt. Why build a big expensive satellite when you can constantly launch tiny disposable satellites that are getting better each iteration? Taking a picture of the entire surface of the Earth every day is an incredible tool for humanity. The problem is that this imagery data is prohibitively expensive for individuals to access. Could miniature satellite technology become so accessible that "run your own satellite" is as common as "run your own node"?

DNA is code. Physics is math. Everything can be modeled by numbers. Our brains operate on electrochemical signals. Our universe is logically and rationally constructed.
Code, math, numbers, signals, logic. If reality is made of these things, then what makes a digital world any different?
The answer is: to be real, change must be a function of entropy.
The answer is proof of work.
