Last Notes
@nprofile…2qn4 when will you visit Sneek? 😊
2 passwords for every human alive 🤣
u sure it’s my note doing all that, Gigi? Sounds like ur mind took a little field trip 😈

Start at the conference’s website and look for a “Recordings” or “On‑Demand” section.
I just started opting for passkeys over password logins where available and now you tell me this?
> Is that really what we need? To lock people's access to things in their phones that can be lost or break anytime?
Redundancy. You never have just one passkey. Or other method of authentication.
> Or they (and services) have to go through infinite undocumented hops for things to work in other ways?
If the other ways are infinite and undocumented then you have a problem with the service not passkeys.
> Besides that it's proprietary technology with a 300-page or more spec
It's not proprietary, the specs (W3C WebAuthn and others) are public.
> that is impossible for normal people to implement
It perfectly fine to implement, you're just dopey.
Is that really what we need? To lock people's access to things in their phones that can be lost or break anytime? Or they (and services) have to go through infinite undocumented hops for things to work in other ways?
Besides that it's proprietary technology with a 300-page or more spec that is impossible for normal people to implement but they try to sell it as an open protocol or something.
Passkeys are cool because they're locked to a domain, which prevents phishing.
Passkeys are cool because you can secure them with a phone's secure element or on a device like a yubikey.
I would not, however, recommend storing passkeys in a software-only password manager.
Just Sending a hug because time is scarce 🫂
I don’t know. I haven’t studied password managers.
It should be better with password managers like 1Pass, no?
The thing is, if they did what they said they did (seed stays on device) they could be quite cool. Like turning phones into hardware wallets.
BUT, they have a “sync” feature in which the content is encrypted so that it can be sent to another device. This would be OK if the encryption key was known only to the recipient device…
BUT, the encryption key is actually your PIN. The intermediary (Apple, etc.) holds the “encrypted” payload, so that if you lose your phone, you can get a new one, download the encrypted passkey DB, and decrypt it with your same PIN.
This search space is incredibly tiny (4-6 digits). So any attacker with access to the encrypted payloads can easily brute force it to get everything. So the security of your sync’d passkeys is entirely reliant on the intermediary.
It’s “trust me bro” security masquerading as sovereignty.
I use the open source u2fzero keys 🫡
You might want to fix your Lightning address as well while you're at it 😅
Yes.
Doing some testing. Should be up and running later today.

Time is scarce. Shag a fit bird before it’s too late.
I like them. Especially the physical Yubikey type. Just have to remembered to add backups.
And apologize when you get angry 🤙🏽
nevent1qqsg4393qlvyj5vk3z5gycnh95udmtludjeu2fnkmy8mpk739wh8ykq7ehfjx
Stay away from those physical keys, overpriced, can't be updated, when there's a vulnerability you have to buy a new one, some of them are closed source too. Use an app for 2FAs.
The passkey is stored on the device. If you lose the device, or change device without passkey bacluos, you lose access to all your accounts. Normie will get rekt so hard.
Finally someone said it. Haha
Why? Physical keys are best 2FA, no?

GM 🌻 Rise 'n shine 🧡 Gigi
Good morning Gigi, have a wonderful day
Saw that too and thought it was criminal how poorly informed the journalist must be to have written that statement.
We need more #V4V books like 21 Lessons. @npub1der…xzpc gives it to the world for free and if you get Value from it you can send some back to him.
every major nostr client will implement algorithms. it's the only way
I'm not looking for "better" or "more efficient" algorithms than big tech, however you define those terms. I want to control them, for myself. It seems like your argument is "I don't think it's possible so don't even make the attempt. It works for me as is so it should work for everyone." I reject that premise.
Have a great day and enjoy Nostr as you wish. Other people may want to use it differently.
I disagree. An algorithm I control would by definition be better than one controlled by a large American tech firm.
Ah, you're an AIDS victim 😂
What do you mean by "no feed"
I'm looking forward to @nprofile…vjlg for this type of experience. I don't know if this fits in their roadmap, but the neighborhood feature seems like a way to jump around different algorithms, be they manual curation or possibly TikTok style.
I personally sometimes want discovery where I see people I don't follow, but might be interested in based on some non-creepy algorithm. Other times I just want the newspaper (what are the people I follow up to). I hope we can support both modes and easily switch between them.
Pretty bearish on "AltmanBook" getting off the ground... At this point, incumbent social networks have pretty big network effects. That means that there's going to be a comparatively large need for a significantly better product for people to leave.
Nostr is fundamentally different than what any centralized platform can offer. AI algorithm blah blah ... sure... AltmanBook will still need to have actual human beings responsible for centralized content policy decisions, and that's where it'll fail like all the rest.
nostr is already open, i don't understand.
> "All of the A/B studies where users were given chronological timelines show they'll switch their time to other apps / services that do provide an algorithmic timeline."
what studies? there are studies on nostr clients?
@nprofile…2qn4 https://image.nostr.build/db8bbc122a6a5be5055c143fc3bb0931e9c381783b946191b20e2a484ec929b7.jpg
A lot of people on Nostr have AIDS (algorithm implementation derangement syndrome). They like the chronological algorithm, and don't think people with a different opinion should have a choice. I hope someday there is a marketplace of algorithms that are selectable in client, or even a simple interface to create your own.
Having only a chronological feed is like having email with only an inbox, or storing your files without a folder structure. When you have a large amount of data to deal with, it helps to have tools to sort, search and manipulate said data.
Yeah, some AI is good, for example dodging those nude pics.. I switched to LLM analysing the notes of annoying users, it is not perfect but it is a start..
Locally run LLMs will be a thing in the coming months or a year.
Coupled with discovery LLMs that run on servers this may be a thing on Nostr.
X, IG, and TikTok already exist. Whoever wants that on nostr should explore building it. I have switched to nostr exactly because those algorithms are not shoved in my face. I don’t want an algorithm to learn what it thinks I like and feed me more of that. I will be staying with my chronological feed and seeing only content from my follows 😂
I had a lot of nights like this when I lived on a sailboat ⛵️
There are few feelings like being the only living soul as far as the eye could see in the endless night
There is an everlasting peace to it when all is calm, and an acute awareness of your own mortality when the thrashing sea is determined to swallow you whole
Nothing makes you more grateful for life than to pass the night side by side with the god of death and feel the warmth of the sunrise on your skin 🌅

MAKE #ASKNOSTR GREAT AGAIN
We are in the best timeline 🔥
500 episodes sounds impressiv but there is so much content now ... you don't have to know them all 😅
Your response to him made me smile
#worcestershirestr is so underutilized
How about auto-hashtag suggestions to select based on the text being typed.
So whats your take? Keep using or nah?
Yo los uso mucho, es más éstos aún viven #negr0art #pinbadge #matestr
yep. this.
though i still send stuff to grownostr :P
It's the only way to surface posts related to any interests I have that are not either Bitcoin or Nostr-related... And 90% of that comes through Mastodon anyways.
Wait… people stopped using them here too? I love my hashtags 😭
The secret is to own yer hashtag if you are the only one posting it its a great conversation tracker
I repeatedly try to follow #asknostr to help, but then a spam wave hits and I have to unfollow. Every time.
Yeah, this is why we can't have nice things.
It feels tacky to use hashtags
Use hashtags if you're looking for niche things. I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for my #yarn folks. Spamming the popular tags makes them useless and people stop following them, in the end it's not the tags but the spammers that are the problem.

they are great for spamming
Jackasses abuse hashtags and ruin it for everyone.
Haven't seen this for a while 😀
not all of them are great though https://blossom.primal.net/892436133253936a3408d40086e5ef9b228789a06e63c88d3b8d51bb5dfb39b4.jpg

GM, a bit early isn’t it?
The alternative is a pretty final option
Just today I read something interesting about our brains.
we suppose to literally live in a hallucination. Our brains predict things as a defense mechanism. If sensors readings (senses) doesn't match those predictions the brain start to freak out.
here is the article in czech:
https://www.osel.cz/14111-tanec-v-zrcadlovem-sale-manual-k-demontazi-vaseho-ja.html
GN - tomorrow is a new day
This is something everyone eventually discovers on their own, but they assume they are somehow wrong because "physics" and "math". Time is the link between physics and math, and time does not exist the same way math never represents anything physical other than our perception of reality.
Suffering is just resistance to what is.
The only real thing is frequency, the vibe.
Some time ago I wrote a poem about nothingnessless.
That was before ₿
Suffering is a choice we consciously have to make, not a requirement @npub1der…xzpc
Typical for philosophy gone over the top LOL
Adopt a lurker. I’m taking applications.
Interesting.
Simulation Theory has come to the same paradox. It’s a mathematically proven theory that space-time very likely doesn’t exist. So then what DOES fundamentally exist?
Awareness.
And the impressions we receive of space-time upon our awareness are therefore a mysterious “simulation” of space and time.
So our existence is (and from first principles SEEMS) real, but the external & even internal impressions we perceive as our existence, do not in fact exist.
The whole interview is interesting
https://youtu.be/Vfc55F3iIkA
Love is opening yourself up in spite of the inevitable suffering that will hit you as a consequence, so yes.
*from nothing to nothingness
I bookmarked this years ago and visiting from time to time.
Time is a perceptual notion. This is akin to saying heat doesn't exist or the color green doesn't exist. While they can be obscured through managed perception, they exists as perceptual notions.
i think of time as a vertical spiral not a line. where vertically stacked points on that spiral are very similar if you live through them.
but i also think only humans can experience time as a spiral. for an ape in the wild, time is just a circle that goes around and around as they don't have the ability to influence it and can't make it better (an upward spiral) or worse (a downward spiral).
also for humans the spiral can take 100 years to clock back a full round, for other creatures, it spans few years at most.
so in short. you can relive your past if you live long enough 😁
and that's why the idea of living forever is retarded.
Without time there would be no Newton 2nd law, nor the law of thermodynamics nor Bitcoin.
The real choice is - would you rather suffer with Bitcoin or not exist at all 😉
Desperate to resolve the paradox, humanity has engaged in thousands of years of learning from the past and planning for the expected future seemingly hacking the system and controlling the ephemeral now.
Too much Russian literature? ☕🫂
Well, on that cheery note.
If block time isn’t real then send me your bitcoins.
Time does exist. I know this because two objects cannot be in the same place at the same time.
Nobody above ground is done suffering.
GM Gigi enjoy a beautiful sunday with your loved ones 🤙🏼

> save more than you spend
Cool cool looks like you've put some thought into it.
If everyone saves more than they spend, i.e. everyone's stack is growing, where do those additional Bitcoins come from? From mining? I understand about 93% of all Bitcoins have already been mined, will those other 7% be sufficient to grow everyone's stack?

I used to love reading Charles Bukowski but he's no hero. He's directly aimed at young men to promote moral relativism. Like Hunter Thompson, William Boroughs and many others. He's a false god. A modem Molech to sacrifice your children to.

My favorite is from the Caucasus region of Russia (Dagestan, Kabardino-Balkaria, & Kalmykia). I also heard the lamb from Homs, Syria is something out of this world.
I’m willing to adopt a lurker. Will zap he/she 690 sats every day for a month if they post something interesting. Apply below, original memes will be given top priority
Or even better, lurk with someone else's account
I got this
99/1=99 inches or something
…and 8 decimal places
I hear it just made an ATH @ 900983!
Idk, but I’m mostly a lurker (I still zap). Not sure how many more like me
How exactly does this work? Is someone hundreds of millions in debt? Did someone long hundreds of millions? It just feels so impossible.

Would love to see some recent data analysis on the actual human userbase size of nostr. It could help make the business case for sure.

i think 'muricans call it "~100 billion"
seems like a fat finger to me.
but i think you call that "burning fiat"
Good grief. That number is so big that I can barely read it.
I'd love to spend my sats that easily!
I would also like to have a convenient way to replace those sats, buying the same amount I just spent.
Unfortunately, spending bitcoin to purchase goods or service triggers an hefty capital gain taxation that really makes a spend-n-replace approach too costly and ultimately prevents me from regularly using bircoin as a MoE.
Based on this response the answer is maybe it’s ok.
On Nostr you can lurk as Gigi or any other npub.

Good to see you here at therapy
First step is under the table. Make him install an app or bring a cheap phone yourself preloaded with a good wallet e.g. Cake that you leave him for the season.
Step two: Come back with friends regularly to make him aware itvis worth to put some time into this.
Third step: Bring some mini server installed with BTCPayServer.
You encounter merchants not in one go. Every metchant is at least a one year project.

And we should celebrate when it's back at five
sometimes when i see certain people poast, i feel a dose of calm
It's a hard pill, I've been a go away come back to nostr in the last months...it feels like destroying myself from within sometimes, it's like you all here are very virtuous people always raising the level pushing my low level up. I must stay, hit me harder, I want more.

Communist Canada will deteriorate until all of your snow-pesos hit zero in bitcoin terms I'm afraid, so good luck to you my friend.
would love to hear your opinion not only on vibe coding software, but bitcoin and bitcoin adoption in the financial markets (and the current state of bitcoin).
did you see that coming?
did you see it coming so early or late?
opinion on microstrategy copy cats?
wall street co-opting core devs? yes or no?
any podcast appearances planned? i think could really need this right now.
I'm also a reclusive hermit that self-isolates on purpose, so take the above with a grain of salt.

I am honestly finally getting the nostr-only folks. Need to contemplate this more, but I think @nprofile…tacz thought it through very well and it's not a impulsive decision.

do you denominate the prices in sats or still in euro or dollars?
> Stack sats.
Sorry you want us to stack sats or spend says?
“15/ A rising number of bitcoiners are all in, forcing them to spend some of their bitcoin. If 100% of your inflow is in bitcoin (or: no inflow, 100% BTC balance), you will have to spend sats on food, shelter, and other necessities. No matter how much you don't want to.”
#nevent1q…gcuy
When every decision you make is based on a difference between how many sats that action costs and how many sats you earn that's when you earn your laser eyes
I feel like knowing this is the difference between having and not having a laser eyes.
Turns out maximalism isn't about self-righteous crusades on what Bitcoin is. It's more about actually living on a Bitcoin standard.

If you pay in fiat, how do you stack sats?! Almost the same way. But when you life on a bitcoin standard you can stack a bit more sats, because fiat is loosing value over time.

How stable are their Bitcoin prices?
There are people in the world who pay with bitcoin daily and don’t even know that there’s an argument against it.
Similarly, there are also people in the world who have barely paid for anything with bitcoin and don’t know that someone on the internet accuses them of not “using” bitcoin.

Boom. No better way to be.
> finding another person that wants bitcoin
Apparently exchanges exist. That's where the fiat price of Bitcoin comes from that you're drooling over every day.
"Bitcoin payment service providers" will even do it for you behind the scenes so all you ever get to see as a merchant is fiat.

If you cant be kind you can always be a cunt.
They can’t convert it without finding another person that wants bitcoin. So they are using bitcoin to get what they want. Your negativity can’t stop bitcoin.

Everywhere. Only depends on YOU!
From my own experience this will take you around 5 years if you start today. Most will start to accept under the table long before they go public with it.
Monero helps to not endanger them (steep learning curve with coin joins, and self-custodial LN).
You need to talk to those who know the value of cash. Small shops, farmers, restaurants and craftsmen. Also it helps to introduce them to Monero as well. Bitcoin to store value and Monero to accept digital cash with ease.
Forget about chains or big supermarkets. They are the result of the fiat economy and will be the last to adapt.

Okay, so the businesses accept bitcoin. You’re not just using a fold credit card and “paying with bitcoin.” I’m curious what lightning wallet you use?

My father and I also try and pay as many people as we can with Bitcoin. It’s something I’m seeing more and more people being open to.
Any wallet that can handle a Lightning payment. Merchants use different solutions, but many use SwissPay.

https://ccs.getmonero.org/
https://bounties.monero.social/
https://donate.magicgrants.org/monero
Where can I see it in action?
Monero community's approach is interesting:
1) Devs pitch their feature/project to the market (users), apply for funding.
2) Users vote with their money.
3) ➡️Features that are actually desired by the community get developed
Imagine grep being funded by salaried devs. It would become a web client with telemetry and garbage collector, written in a nich language and a complex build system.
Like systemd or Google Chrome.
Sad state of affairs:
1. No funding = passion and user-focus, but unsustainable
2. Employment = stable, but rot
3. Funding like core or foundations = professional, but directionless, featurism, detached from userbase, hubris, hidden agendas
4. Crowdfunding = rarely works, unreliable
What now?
Bitcoin Core dev proposes to convert Core into a walled garden, membership-only repo.
🤷
All because every once in a while there is actual work to be done moderating a PR (btw something, for which already a full-time paid grant by @nprofile…uazd exists)
The more I read such nonsense coming out of Core, the more I think that giving Devs effectively a tenure (through Chaincode, longterm grants Brink, OpenSats etc) is part of the problem, not the solution.
"We want to do our thing, amongst ourselves, not be subject to public scrutiny. But please keep paying us."

This tripped me up learning German, too. Nouns all have genders.
And literally the word “girl” is gender-neutral rather than gender-female, because let’s just make things as unintuitive as possible.

Not to mention the energy proliferation incentives! Energy is abundant, but stranded for many people throughout the world. Bitcoin mining offers financial incentives for investment in remote areas while powering up villages that’d otherwise be left in the dark. Wealth is directly correlated with energy consumption; the more energy we consume, the wealthier we become, as energy and wealth are not zero-sum games.

I wonder if Latin words in european languages also inherit gender from Latin in most cases. That would make life a bit easier, as shared Latin words would all have the same gender.
Hehe yeah as a native speaker I also don't know the rules for that, if there are any even. I just know which is correct, somehow. Only rule I know is that it's always "het" when you use the small form of something ("de spiegel" in small becomes "het spiegeltje")
Et "la laveuse" au Québec 😅🤣

Machines are oppresed by men that use them and dispose of them when they have no use for them anymore -> female
The gender of a washing machine in Bulgarian is female. 😏
It would go better with German, French has 2 genders instead of 3. 😂 But it's feminine, just like in German.
Aren't washing machines oppressed enough to choose their own gender identity?
"la machine à laver" or "le lave-linge" 😵💫

GM Gigi. Have a great day friend.
Inspiriert durch argentarius 🧡.
Und ich hatte natürlich auch ein wenig AI Hilfe den text glatt zu ziehen 😅
Was dich auch interessieren dürfte ist, dass ich seit heute auch verstehe was das Problem der Österreicher und Libertären mit argentarius' Verwendung des Begriff Anspruch ist 🤯
Ich dachte zuerst, Argentarius hat das perfekte Wort gewählt. Anspruch klang für mich weicher, fast ideell. Anrecht dagegen wirkte streng, bürokratisch, irgendwie zu nah am Gesetz.
Aber ich habe heute kurz recherchiert und gemerkt, dass es genau andersherum ist. Früher war ein Anspruch einfach eine gedachte Erwartung. Aber wieder einmal hat der Sozialstaat eingegriffen und ihn zu etwas gemacht, das man einklagen kann 🙈
Kindergeld, Rente, Wohngeld wurde zu einem „gesetzlichen Anspruch“ erklärt und wurde zur einseitigen Pflicht mit Formular, Frist und Nachweispflicht gemacht. Damit haben sich auch die Bedeutungen verschoben. Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts war Anspruch eher abstrakt, eine vage Erwartung an Leistung.
Heute ist es genau umgekehrt. Anspruch steht für Paragraphen und Pflicht. Anrecht klingt plötzlich weich, fast menschlich und beschreibt viel besser, was Geld eigentlich ist.

Because you can’t be too sure about it. People were pretty sure gold wouldn’t fail as money. It did. People in the 19th century were convinced the age of wars was over and that only prosperity awaited. That didn’t happen. As a currency, Bitcoin can fail in a number of ways, some of which haven’t even been considered. Even today, it’s a stretch to call it one, although in both practical and theoretical terms, it is. But is it used as a currency? Hardly. @nprofile…zph9 did a poll not too long ago asking Bitcoiners how they use Bitcoin. 94% answered “savings,” 5% said “means of payment,” and 1% said “something else”. Maybe this changes in the next few years, maybe it gets worse. It depends on which narrative gains more traction: the one about Bitcoin being a digital asset, or the one about it being a cryptocurrency. The odds aren’t in favor of the latter right now and that’s bad, because I have to agree with @nprofile…yary - if Bitcoin remains just a store of value, it fails to stay relevant long-term. It also fails as a project to separate money from the state. Reversing that trend will take serious effort and it’s entirely on us. We need to run nodes, mine at home, educate newcomers, and call out bad actors and scammers, both outside and especially *inside* the space. Just repeating dumb memes like “everything is good for Bitcoin” or “nothing stops this train” while doing nothing to push it as a means of payment won’t get us there. One day we’ll realize we were the frogs being slowly boiled. So yeah, I don’t think Bitcoin is guaranteed to win or solidify as a currency, but the opportunity is there and I’m not sitting on the sidelines. I’m doing my part.
I tried to make one but it’s not very well updated: https://blockdyor.com/bitcoin-conferences/
It would not help convince my mother-in-law to get Nostr though 😅
Ah damn that’s a great idea I should have done tbat
I know this is targeted at normies, but @npub1der…xzpc in all green for that line would have pleased my cypherpunk heart
Yep that’s him in the flesh lol 😂

Nostr just sounds better with a German accent

We'll do them on @nprofile…8qzu at some point.

Dear @npub1der…xzpc , I was shocked to find out you were no longer following me. What happened? Is it a technical issue or intentional? 😔🤷🏻♂️ I'm so sorry, because you've impressed and inspired me so much since the first Twenty-One podcast episode. It would mean so much to me if you would follow me again. All the best. 🫂💜

At my time zone, they’re sleeping :))
There are many owls in oir garden, and they scream all night. I can't sleep. They are competing with disturbing news
Good morning, Gigi! I hope you're well!

Yes... be the change you want to see in the world, and don't sweat the double-masked having fun staying poor.
Without a shadow of a doubt 🤷♂️😉
Separation is an illusion. Focus inwards, and watch ur outer world transform. Happy Monday @nprofile…hj9p

I ate some ice cream and played some golf today. It was real nice.
Journalling, alone in a calm nature-close settings ✨ sun & seeds for a longing, expanding soul ✨

sometimes you get more than you bargained for
I do hate how AI models cheapen human ingenuity and effort, especially in regard to wordcraft and poetry. Kudos for the effort and poem from the heart. It is a brave new world. 👊

Why not an image of a woman?
You haven’t asked a question requiring or deserving of a direct answer. I responded above:
#nevent1q…s3km
:)) still you have not answered my question: why not an image of a man on your meme?
margret may be a dimwit, but she gets it
“This isn’t an accusation.”
Proceeds to make yet another accusation. 😂
https://media.tenor.com/W13QJWSss5EAAAAC/sure-jennifer-lawrence.gif
This is not an accusation. I’m sorry if you feel that. Biases are usually not conscious. I only made an observation based on an image. The only conclusion I can draw based on this interaction is that you weren't conscious.
I could choose to read into your questions here the same way you have chosen to read into the meme I posted, and in doing so I could draw (probably incorrect) conclusions about you the same way you appear to be doing about me; but I think that would be uncalled for, unnecessary, and unjustifiable, just as I think your implied accusations about my motives and intentions with that meme are uncalled for, unnecessary, and unjustifiable.
Why an image of woman? Why not an image of a man?
Very interesting choice of image. Are you aware of the bias?
It’s the bell curve meme!
lady on the left ftw💪
In my hero mushroom dose journey I got in touch with that... And exclaimed "if we new where we are going, we'd never be afraid of dying". It was beautiful. Then I freaked out I died and I am never coming back, and started to claw my way back to Earth. Enjoy life before death. This life is a blessing.
Self censorship is something I have always failed at.
Caused me many problems in school, I could never keep my head down and be silent whenever a teacher was spreading misinformation.
I got suspended for arguing with a teacher because they told the class that Australian does not have a constitution and called me stupid, said that only USA has a constitution.
There were others just as smart or aware is a better word as me, who were able to practice self censorship, and they have had much more "successful" lives than I have, because when their employer says something they don't like they just carry on, while I tell them to get fucked and explain why they are wrong.
Thank you - just remember 😅 Thanks! 💜🫂
