i have noticed i've become more hesitant to share and open source things since the CSW case, it really felt like being punished for trying to do a good thing

i don't like it either, it's like flying blind sometimes, i really like reasonably reliable notifications of things happening
i don't think it has anything to do with privacy, the information is public, just not in a convenient format
(not that i currently have any better proposals 😀 )

- reply

yeah the entire follow list is crammed into one event, so there isn't an efficient way to listen for "someone follows me specifically"

2024-11-18 17:03:23

heads-up: it looks like the new version of nos2x-fox (nostr auth plugin for firefox), 1.15.0, broke compatibility with at least nostrudel and nostter
zapping and other actions fail with "nos2x-fox: Public key used doesn't match the active profile."

- reply

might be, or it's some specific interaction with how https://github.com/0xtrr/cherry-server handles authentication
the sequence of events is the following:
- nostrudel sends a HEAD /upload request (no auth header), gets 405
- nostrudel sends a OPTIONS /upload request (no auth header), gets 200
- nostrudel sends a PUT /upload request (no auth header), gets 401 (this is what is shown in the image)
- nostrudel sends a OPTIONS /upload request (no auth header), gets 200
then it gives up

2024-11-15 16:38:21

- reply

it looks like it is not sending an authentication header at all for the upload

where does this freedom of movement come from, what prevents the monarch from locking you up if you want to leave? or why would another let you in?
i dunno, but imo if you're going to be idealistic about people's behavior, anarchy and self-sovereignty seems a better tree to bark up to, at least it's based on your own responsibility

2024-11-13 15:42:23

monarchy seems great... if you're the monarch
i don't quite understand who anyone else would voluntarily go along in such a system of government though
like im not sure "benevolent monarchy" is a less juvenile world view than thinking anarchism would work, both are different strains of romanticism

i use core lightning, haven't ever used LND so can't compare-to use it with nostr and receive zaps you need two plugins:
- https://github.com/elsirion/clnurl. Core Lightning plugin for LNURL and LNAddress support (to receive zaps and other lnpays)
- https://github.com/thesimplekid/cln-zapper-rs Core Lightning plugin for sending zap events (this will let the nostr relays know when you successfully receive a zap)

there is no question, ever, if something is "needed", on a global scale, innovation is decentralized
it's very simple economically: if a normal ISP user cannot afford a publicly-connectable network address, they cannot accept incoming connections, so they can't do anything P2P, this discourages P2P
this is not a hypothetical scenario, if you think it is, you have a luxury and probably US-centric view of things

besides the nonce hassles, bitcoin miners do double-SHA256, while nostr uses a single round of SHA256
i don't think there's any way to make it work
designing a FPGA/ASIC implementation specificially for nostr PoW grinding might be an interesting project though 😀
it's too bad that content comes after tags, so unless you're willing to grind the trailing part of the content you can't do the "reuse midstate and grind the last block only" shortcut

no need to go that far; if you're willing to change all clients, defining an "editable short form" kind in the replaceable event range and using that instead of kind 1 would solve it
unfortunately, it's not that easy because all current clients won't show your note, this sucks for users (which often already get no engagement 🙂 ) so there's a chicken and egg problem
but if you have a time machine and could change kind 1 to be replaceable (like kind 0) in retrospect... that'd be the way to go !

in a prolonged war there's usually a lot counterfeit cash, and really crazy things happen to exchange rates to fund war efforts, governments do things like suddenly switch the legal tender, etc, there is no stability in a war scenario
that said, sure... having some low-tech means of exchange that works without internet connectivity is useful to have, it's absurd that everything so easily disrupts in the case of a network outage
say, a while ago i wanted to take the bus from the airport but the its payment terminals weren't working... and they have a "no physical cash" policy... so the driver just refused to take anyone 🤷‍♀️

i think their main point lately is that one shouldn't specify too many relays in the NIP-65 metadata (inboxes and outboxes), because that's information for other people and makes it harder to find your posts or send a post to you
apart from that there's little reason to not use as many relays as you want, though things might become slower and/or more battery and bandwidth usage, but doesn't affect anyone else

there's definitely the "can the master's tools be used to dismantle the master's house" kind of discussion
so i agree it's not entirely neutral, but it's also not completely opinionated on everything imbued by the author
there's a degree of neutrality, there can be shared goals and underlying methods, otherwise there would be no reason to cooperate on technology at all (which would entirely undermine FOSS), and clearly different people can use the same technology

2024-11-02 13:51:31

- reply

yea... i'm still trying to have a go at reading the atproto specification, but it's sooo verbose
on one hand it's good because they've tried to be precise and complete, but it also mentions a lot of things not interesting to someone that just wants a basic overview of the data structures, and which could be relegated to appendices and such
(also, dedicating an entire page upfront to what is missing in the specification isn't a great look, hehe)

yes, agree, at least it is easy to implement the basics !

2024-11-02 13:08:55

whooops right i mean kind 1, not NIP 1 events
and yes, a case of "it wasn't in the standard so client authors agreed on a common convention", which is common enough
it's just that the spec explicitly mentions that clients shouldn't do any special interpretation 😀

2024-11-02 12:54:58

speaking of which, it seems a bit arbitrary to me that nostr went with inline images (against the NIP-01 spec saying "plaintext"), instead of attachment-style images like twitter and other social media
#nevent1q…hl2h

2024-11-02 12:41:20

- reply

i just realized one thing NIP-01 lacks is the unwritten(?) rules how clients actually display NIP-01, it mentions that the messages are strictly plaintext but that's not true in practice
e.g. like "a link that ends in an image format like .jpg, .png or .webp is displayed inline as an image"
don't know if there's more

needing freedom tech is mostly an individual thing; say, you need an escape from an oppressive community, it doesn't matter if that's a religious sect or over-zealous nanny state, or even an oppressive partner, when you need a means of communication and sending money that they don't control
it's not 'about these people' versus 'those people', that's an overly simplistic way of viewing the world

2024-11-01 10:05:16

yes...maybe
i'm not personally trying to control anything 😀 i have a lot of things going on very finite time and energy,
i'm just noticing a problem and trying to be vocal about it
is it worth worrying about? there's a large perception problem around bitcoin, which has hampered things for sure, and i see the same happening to nostr
"sod off to bluesky" works too, absolutely the path of least resistance
though i actually miss bitcoin content there 🤣

2024-11-01 09:05:17

if you want to show that nostr really is great tech and the decentralized future of social media for everyone, and not just a circlejerk of right-wing extremism, and make people feel welcome to join, this kind of territorialism is absolutely not the way to go

ive been trying to get cmus to add a usable URL to NIP-38 events, this is the hard part if you're playing old fashioned mp3s from a folder and not using one of the big services, i think most i could do is add a bandcamp url when known (which provides a link to a info page... getting a direct link to the stream from there is a scraping hassle)
ideally there would be some service agnostic identifier but no idea if that exists, nor would it be easy to find that 🙂

it's definitely not impossible that there's a bug in leveldb ! maybe it's possible to diagnose it if it keeps happening more or less consistently there
it's just that, data corruption messages tend to show as "error in leveldb" (because that's the thing causing most of i/o) and thus people are first to blame leveldb, it's such a common trope
i've investigated a few corrupted databases back in the day and every time it was a bitflip or some other issue more likely to be caused by hardware than software problems
while on reliable hardware it tends to be possible to run syncs back to back in a loop without trouble
the thing is, there are few workloads that put modern hardware to the test, and are also super-critical about every bit of correctness like a blockchain sync, so it makes sense you're not seeing problems with anything else
still, it could potentially be a bug that happens in very specific circumstances

fwiw, it's very possible to host nostrudel (or other web clients) locally instead of using it from the author's website
this is what i do, it's simply a static website once built

2024-10-28 17:07:36

- reply

you get that error because it's a robust database; if leveldb didn't do the CRC checksum on records, the UTXO corruption would go undetected, and there could be much worse consequences like losing coins

2024-10-28 17:04:46

- reply

the fact that you got a failure at the same point the second time kind of reduces the chance it was a leveldb bug; likely, likely, the block file was corrupted

2024-10-28 13:29:57

brought it down to 3/3, i do hope this doesn't mean even fewer people will see my posts
