Last Notes npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Ok guys, help a dev out. I'm an awful marketer — hopefully I'll get some real help on this soon, but in the meantime, what are the highest leverage suggestions you have to catch the Discord wave that I can execute on right now? npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Coracle 0.6.29 is out: npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Is marmot not open? npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I'll RFC this too. The original version is here: npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Slop class as soulcraft npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I'll admit to the old man yelling at cloud vibes. I think the luddites were right too. All I can do is trust that this is all in God's providence. npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Yeah, my reactionary friend always says this and I just don't see it npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I read about this today, apparently they use silent push notifications to wake the app up, but they often get ignored due to battery optimizations. I'm working on a spec/implementation that will make real push notifications possible on nostr: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/2194 npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Gotta keep it interesting npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod haha that list 😂 npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Now that's something I can agree with. Small is beautiful npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Yeah, a multi-tenant hosted email setup would be way more annoying. I host my email with proton and just point my nip 05 there npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Mine is, it's quite easy to set up if you're not afraid of DNS npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I was thinking about that earlier, with you in mind. I have some guesses, but I don't know, why are you? Is it because you are ahead of the curve because you throw yourself in 100%? Is it because you have the right temperament to do context engineering right? Do you have a higher tolerance for chaotic behavior? Do you want it to be true? Do you have the discipline to not get distracted on side quests? Do you have an overriding vision that keeps you rooted? All of these things may be true. But none of them go to the root of my argument, because they are all ways in which you as a person are able to master an unruly tool instrumentally, not about how people in general are able to prevent being mastered by it formally. npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod The one thing they can't take from us npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I think this is wise. I love the Amish, simply because they choose to do the difficult thing of regulating technology in their communities. But they have their own dysfunctions as well. npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Oh, and your drafts saved me this morning, so thank you for that npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod @nprofile…ccjq a couple issues on the new habla editor (thank you by the way, it's beautiful): npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod And in what context npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod It's hard to talk about AI. It's just such a massive, multi-faceted topic npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod call it a hunch. Or read academic studies and look at the kinds of AI-coded stuff that gets attention npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I have read about gastown, the man is having a mental breakdown npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I know you like reading, so here you go: npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod My anti-AI takes aren't popular, weird npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod LLM-assisted coding can be used to good effect, but I think it's pretty clear at this point that its impact has so far been a net negative on productivity in real terms. npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod No, at worst it's tryhard midwittery npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod LLMs are demolishing the low-code industry because they are a perfect fit for that kind of work. If trade-offs exist, then they are a less optimal fit for other kinds of work (though maybe a viable alternative). The corollary is that the work you feel most productive doing with LLMs is probably the same kind of work low-code products were intended to address (and mostly failed to do so). npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I'm not throwing my computers away just yet, but I think folk culture is the answer we need, which is concrete, parochial, and personal. I'm very much against the machine, although not against technology. I actually just delivered a talk last week which I wrote shortly after reading Against the Machine: npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod "When you preach against technology or the Machine it can be very easy to sound like a sort of ascetic killjoy who doesn't want anyone to have any fun. But the machine isn't any fun! Very, very boring." npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Read Ray Bradbury npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Misogyny-driven development npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I see what you did there npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod See you in another life npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod all slop is bad slop npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I'm keeping a list npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Too much soyfacing over LLMs, I'm just going to start unfollowing people who gush over slop npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod inexcusable npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod impossible npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I would take it if it was sarcastic like that npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod It really gets me because I understand how much of an afterthought email unsubscribe pages are, but also it's a legal requirement in the states. Not only are you going to phone it in, you're going to make me feel like I abandoned my dog? npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod why do people think it's ok to emotionally manipulate users on email unsubscription pages? npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Another subtle thing I just noticed as we continue to normalize LLMs for coding: npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod This is not an angle I had considered. I like it. npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I'm listening to Andreas Antonopoulos on Rogan from 2016, and it's like listening to something from the future: bitcoin backed debit cards, openbazaar's decentralized marketplace, plug and play VR. Even the ads are better - the tracking tiles were advertised as having crash detection so you could know whether a loved one was in a car accident. Meanwhile, in the "future", we have buy now pay later, Temu, and lagging bitcoin adoption. What happened? npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Yes, I think so, but I'd have to see what it looks like for more complex/restrictive relays npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Just published a new NIP with yet another approach to push notifications: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/2194 npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod This looks great npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I want to watch this movie npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod At the same time they keep dishing on millennials right in front of us npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod The Civil War was weirdly steampunk npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Challenge accepted npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod It's more that pokey won't look at community relays, or the additional kinds I want to get notified for (e.g. kind 9, 11, 1111) npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod It uses waste heat to generate entropy. The webdite is not very clear about that npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod This is pretty clever: npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Flotilla 1.6.3 is out — this is a bugfix and quality of life release, which is good because it turns out there were a lot of bugs. npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Wendell Berry npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod @nprofile…k0wu I'm looking into using pokey for push notifications in flotilla, but the default outbox model paradigm isn't really going to work. Have you considered using intents or something to allow other applications to register notification configurations? E.g., flotilla wants to get notified of all kind 9s on relay X, sends that via intent to pokey, user approves, and pokey broadcasts those events. This would be great for UX, and would cover advanced use cases. npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Check it out, bitcoinwalk.org is now powered by flotilla! npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod No idea, but wasn't hoyte the one who wrote both? Or do you mean the migration to v1? npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Yeah, some people are annoyed that their signers are asking them to approve lots of relay auth messages when using outbox npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod That seems to have done the trick, thanks npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I've been using OpenCode Zen with Opus 4.5 the last few days at @nprofile…kxje's insistence, but I've found that it's way more "hot" than Claude. I have to keep a very tight leash to keep it from going off the rails with ill-considered refactors. The way that Claude Code eliminated this behavior is why I finally started having success with vibe coding. Anyone know how to turn the temperature down a little? npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Is there an event kind that specifies how nostr clients should deal with AUTH? I'm thinking a whitelist of some kind. Also settings for whether to auth automatically, only when getting an auth-required, or nover. npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Whoever runs nos.lol, you should remove nip 77 from your supported_nips instead of return errors when negentropy is used npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I personally like it, which is good enough for Coracle, but I do want to get flotilla looking SLICK eventually npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Yeah, I've never been great at UI. @nprofile…ze85 helped me a lot, but it's still not really modern. I haven't noticed the NIP 05 problem, I'll keep an eye on that npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod @nprofile…hddr I sent you a DM, we should catch up npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I greatly desire your review npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Here's another demo of Pomade, this time integrated in Flotilla! npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Am I the only person who struggles to figure out what the slug of a model is given the name? How am I supposed to know that `MiniMax M2.1` should be referred to as `opencode/minimax-m2.1` ? npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Probably an issue would be better npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod "The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?" npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I'll wear that badge npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Your client is parsing the link wrong, remove the trailing period npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I started writing more a couple months ago, and I am really enjoying it. I don't know how good it is for my brain, or whether I will go back and read what I wrote, but it feels right. npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod You have to accept some compromises if you want to serve people who don't know the difference between a web browser and a search engine npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Would you prefer asking people to paste their nsec into web clients, because that, not making everyone use airgapped signers, is the alternative npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Jesus tells us to "love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength." (Mark 12:30) npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod You just pointed at the entire internet npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod That's the idea npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Can you explain why? npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I should have mentioned what Pomade is — it's a multi-sig signer implementation with email-based login and recovery. npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Similar idea I think, do you have a protocol written up? npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod It's a really hard problem, but I think multi-master is probably the right approach, and maybe DVMs/NIP 89 can help, although sybil attacks are probably always going to be a thing. Special-purpose solutions might involve DHTs or blockchains or whatnot, but yeah, tricky. npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Pomade is getting closer — take a look below for a demo video, or try it out yourself at https://pomade.onrender.com. npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Is this compatible with hypernotes or yakihonne's smart components, or another thing? It looks promising for something I want to add to Flotilla npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Reticulum is awesome, but also orthogonal to nostr search npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod We need an actual decentralized solution to search, not another api that might go down npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Hit me up if you have questions, some rough spots remain but I'm working on tying up loose ends npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod nostr.band died recently, we'll get over it but search especially has always been pretty centralized npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod A little more unruly than claude huh? npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Man this space moves fast. GPT has always been synonymous with stupid for me. I'll have to give codex a try npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Ah, yep as I suspected, this should be fixed in the next release npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I keep planning to try oyher stuff, but I like claude other than its tics npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I feel like people are just superstitious about this. Philip Sheldrake on the other hand has thought through the issue of digital identity npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod I'm going to lose my mind I think npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Thanks, is this the Android app? I'm guessing the blank screen is a crash due to weirdly formed events, would you be able to do this on web and see if you can get me a stack trace? npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Authorization is enforced by the relay rather than by encryption, so you can have "private" groups, just not "I'm a spy" private groups npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod Yeah, just discovered this yesterday, it feels like vibe coding might finally start working for me npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn hodlbod For ten years I've been disciplining myself to avoid "snacks", small, easy, fun tasks that people use as excuses to avoid solving difficult problems. Suddenly, snacks are free because of LLMs. But the difficult problems remain.
