Accounts get compromised all around the world, all the time. If it's just one of your many accounts, the damage is limited. But if it's your one and only nsec, and you use it all over the place, that's going to suck, a lot.

The answer to my question seems to be something called "enclaves".
https://blog.opensecret.cloud/opensecret-technicals/
Enclaves seem to be something like a Virtual Machine that has its memory and resources protected from prying eyes at the hardware level, even from the hypervisor running the VM.
However, even if you offer reproducible builds of these enclaves, how can anyone be certain that the current running enclave really is that same build?

How is it even possible for the chat to be "end to end encrypted"? That doesnt make sense. Your AI processes unencrypted chat messages in order to respond, and you obviously have access to those since you run the AI servers. Some people claim this is a privacy focused AI. How can anyone possibly make such a claim if you (the provider) can see everything??

Would help if there were some good videos that dive into how zero knowledge proofs work, especially in the context of securing the Monero network. It's all just too alien to most people. I tried digging into how zero knowledge proofs work a few times, and nobody seems to be able to explain it simply, beyond "Where's Waldo" analogies.

I'm not judging any particular academic here, because I haven't read any academic paper, but it's not necessary at this point. No technology exists that can achieve the claim, so I don't see any reason to dig deeper into something that smells too much of BS already.

2025-03-21 19:54:23

"Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) typically can see underground to a depth of a few meters, generally ranging from about 1 to 10 meters, depending on the factors mentioned earlier (frequency, material properties, surface conditions, etc.)."
"In some cases, particularly with lower frequency SAR systems (like L-band), it may be possible to detect features at depths closer to the upper end of that range, but it is not designed for deep subsurface imaging."
This isn't anywhere even remotely close to being capable of discovering the structures that are being claimed to have been discovered.

2025-03-21 18:43:02

- reply

This is likely fake. We don't have imagining technology that can see underground like that. They claim to have used Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) to achieve this. Do yourself a favor and go ask ChatGPT, "Can Synthetic Aperture Radar see things underground?" The answer is basically no.

2025-03-12 07:03:36

- reply

You seem to be implying that it's OK for the hashrate to fluctuate, as long as the trend is only in the upward direction.
The correct security budget is whatever it happens to be at any given moment in time.
If the price of Bitcoin is too high relative to the number of miners, the reward for mining effectively increases, which brings in new miners.
If the price of Bitcoin drops too low, relative to the number of miners, then the reward for mining effectively decreases, which leads to unprofitable miners leaving.
You seem to be talking about a problem that does not exist.

2025-03-12 05:50:20

- reply

This seems like a strange question to be asking in the first place. How many people are mining, and how much hashrate the network has, are not things that should be set in stone or "can only go up". It should be free to go up and down according to free market dynamics. Sometimes it will go up. Sometimes it will go down. Why are you making a problem out of nothing?

2025-03-08 06:02:19

- reply

You're missing something. Nostr does not scale.
It will only ever be a small handful of people excited about a future that is not coming.
It cannot and will never even be a quarter of the size of Twitter, for example.
Why? Even all the Nostr developers will tell you, you should connect to around 3 relays. No more.
So if people want to be able to see each other, well, then they all need to connect to the same popular relays. That is a return to centralization.
Nostr will only ever be either:
- small groups of people who can't easily find or speak to the rest of the world (like right now), or
- a massive community of people but very censored and centralized, just like legacy social media (which kind of defeats the entire purpose of Nostr in the first place).
Nostr cannot be decentralized, unstoppable, and yet also massive, unless the developers make a profound shift in how notes move through relays to be more like a gossip protocol.

How is it not redundancy? If one connection dies, you're still connected via another. If one relay deletes your stuff, your still hosted by another. It is textbook redundancy.

2025-03-04 08:35:55

They only need to trust that at least some of the relays are bothering to save stuff.

Who created #Amethyst? #asknostr

2025-02-23 05:31:32

In Amethyst, when a note includes a medium to long URL, it gets truncated.
Ie. It looks something like "https://example.com/..." where the "..." represents stuff you cannot see.
Is there no way to preview the entire URL without being forced to click it?
A long press nothing.
And regular tap simply opens the URL.
For the sake of #privacy and #security, it's not good that #Amethyst is obscuring 99% of URLs.
Is there any way to see the full URL without being forced to visit it?

The majority of people seem likely to remain apathetic.
Most people are likely to continue giving up their privacy so long as it gains them some amount of convenience.
Most people are likely to continue using fiat over Bitcoin as long as it's more convenience (less governmental road blocks).
Most people are likely to continue to have someone else (banks) custody their finances for the sake of "convenience.
Teaching your average person how to secure their private keys and still be able to use them when they need to is beyond what the average person wants to deal with.
Unless civilization slips into utter tyranny, average people won't be pushed to take matters into their own hands.
