Last Notes npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Just use OTR... npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Exactly! So let us raise them and stop interfering! 🤬 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG GM 🌞 The funding will continue until the freedom improves! npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Sorry for the fire alarm - it's not! All the work is happening on the `next/major` branch where it looks like they're getting closer to the 0.4.0 release. 🎉 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Hey @nprofile…fu08 - Is StartOS a dead product? https://github.com/Start9Labs/start-os npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG GM 🌞 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Talked to them about it yesterday, in fact. 😉 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG In what way? We support amber and other Nip-55 signers already. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG It really pisses me off that agents ruined en/em dashes. I used them all the time before LLMs came along and now, I'm having to train myself to stop so that people who don't know grammar won't think I'm AI slop. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Yes, and… what people say and what people do differ significantly on products. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Genuinely curious what everyone's thoughts are on product analytics in the apps you use. I think most teams building in the nostr/bitcoin/freedom-tech space are a hard-no without thinking about how you could do them well (i.e. privacy-first, opt-in only, etc). npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG GM 🌞 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Interesting. I like that we have several different indexer projects in the ecosystem now. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Quietly released Nostr Doctor yesterday evening. The hope is that this simple tool will help everyone to do the basic housekeeping on their accounts and data to make sure they continue to have great experiences using nostr as the protocol and clients change over time. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG GM 🌞 I've been dying to play with Karpathy's autoresearch tooling so this morning I installed Pi and the autoresearch plugin and put it to work on optimizing roundtrip encoding time on my already tweaked fork of @nprofile…jhk8 's notepack binary note encoding... npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Super cool looking. Can't wait to play with it npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Whoa. This looks intense. 🔥 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Building high quality software on decentralized protocols is the hardest of hard modes. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Insane progress this week on @nprofile…9puf! Way more stable, more real-time, better crypto. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Yeah - 100%. Marmot is for DM and groups and gives you fully end-to-end encrypted messaging. Basically, it's signal over nostr. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG 🫂 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG I am so bullish after the Marmot community 🦫 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Sent you a reply in white noise. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG You should be able to get into the TestFlight again now. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG explain? npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG GM 🌞 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG If you’re too young to have grown up on the internet of the 80s and 90s, this podcast is a must listen. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG GM 🌞 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG I hope soon. But we got a lot on the plate. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG GM 🌞 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Oh actually. Just kidding, it’s way different. I think our way is probably going to be better. 😉 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG I’ll look. It sounds similar to what the plan has been all along. The same nostr pubkey is just different members (different leaf nodes) in the group. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG I can't keep up! 🔥 So much great stuff being built on Marmot! npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG 1. You can't guarantee they'll destroy them. If you're in a situation that requires that level of caution, then you should run your own relays. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG The real 10x programmer skill has now become multi-tasking a large number of concurrent OpenCode sessions. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG 👋 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG GM 🌞 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Right?! 🤣 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG 🤨 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Bro. Be careful. You replied 6 times to the same note. One was plenty. 😂 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG You guys are the best! Well done!! npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Bitcoin is the protocol for permissionless money. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG I’m the creator of the Marmot Protocol. We’ve got a brand new version of white noise coming soon and then your CLI will need to be updated but it’s all for the best. It’ll be more secure and easier to use. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG This is an OpenClaw bot, building on Marmot. 🤯 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Anything is possible. Someone just showed me a one-shot CLI for MDK built by an openclaw bot. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Check out all the channels: https://docs.openclaw.ai/channels npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG GM 🌞 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Listened to this album just yesterday! npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG GM 🌞 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG 🫶 You guys are great. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Marmot 🫶 Vector npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG If you're fixated on the Epstein emails, you're doing exactly what they want. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Been watching the conversations on Clawstr (agent social network on Nostr) and it's genuinely fascinating. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Cool idea. Bring back the static internet! ✨ npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG GM! npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Over the past 6 weeks we've been rebuilding the White Noise flutter app from scratch. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Are you using LMStudio or Ollama for local models? npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG 🤣 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG https://blossom.primal.net/273041601e8d3caf895e0e26b63793f2658e9539c12980d3c25936fb0fac538a.jpg npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG GM! I'm faced with a tough decision this morning. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Why only when you're lazy? npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG What tools are you using? And do you feel like you are getting the most from the system or are you struggling? npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG GM 🌞 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Bit of both. Like nearly everything these days. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Which path will you choose? npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Have you talked to @nprofile…9cvu about Garland yet? npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG So cool. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG GM. Sometimes life is incredibly unfair and senseless. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Watched a video about the NASA Artemis II mission and it feels so outdated. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Anyone working on doing the same with satispay here in Italy? npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Yeah. Absolutely there are a few. Do you have a link on the CVEs npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG If you're not talking to your agents... npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG We can't - only relays could track IPs and we're one layer removed from their logs. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Isn’t that just gaming the retention figures? I agree with the idea that we can probably come up with something that cleans this up a little, but a fair way isn’t immediately obvious to me npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Want to give me the old stuff for import into pensive? npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG There is likely some tuning that I need to do on that W0 calculation to filter some extremely low intent/low value pubkeys from the calculation. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Yeah, we're talking about the same thing. NIP-17 uses kind 1059 - we don't pubkeys that publish 1059 events since we'll only ever see those used one time. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG That's actually really interesting (and good to know since I was worried that I was missing something). npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG So - what's happening here is that it gets the full list of all pubkeys that we've seen, then fetches the most recently published 10002 event for each, then get's all the relay URLs from that (normalizing the URLs and throwing away complete trash along the way) and then counts. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG There is - it's about 5k urls, many (most) of which are not live. I can have a look now that it's been running a week or so to see what data I have on those. The relay stat tracking code is very basic at the moment, it's an area of the app I'd love to improve on. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG It includes any new pubkey we saw publish their first event in that week. I'm happy to hear ideas on how to better tune that. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG 😬 sorry for robbing the name! I didn't even realize. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG I have it running on a bare metal server that costs ~$70/mo from Hetzner. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Check out the tooltips. Lots of the charts filter out ephemeral pubkeys that have only been seen on events like gift wraps or marmot messages. Basically any time it’s a throwaway key we don’t include for aggregation stats. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Good call! I don't have anything like that yet but I'll add an issue on the repo to try and get it added sometime in the future. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG That's fair, but it's also fair that human users aren't the only users that we actually care about on nostr. DVMs are users. Servers are users. And yes, even bots are users. This is more of a question of what do we want to measure vs are these numbers correct. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG depends on what you're talking about. are you looking at how it's discovering relays to connect to or are you talking about the relay chart at the bottom of the dashboard? npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Yup. Hard truth. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG It's time we had good, reliable, open-source data about Nostr. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG It's so funny because they're so cute. 😂 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG One of the best crews in bitcoin! npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Bro! You've made it. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Always has been: https://github.com/erskingardner/nostr-how npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Secrets are natural. Privacy is not a crime. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Now - if only the site looked as cool as that video! 😂 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG The job of a software engineer is completely unrecognizable from 1 year ago and I'm sure it's going to be completely unrecognizable again one year from now. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Holy shit. I can't believe I've been sleeping on git worktrees for working with agents. The speed at which you can do multiple parallel tasks, using Claude Code or OpenCode and a bunch of git worktrees is insane. Especially when you pair it with accurate LLM-based speech to text dictation. 🤯 npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Bought myself some books. ✨ npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG Breathe, breathe in the air. npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc JeffG When Signal went down a few months ago it was clear from the comments going around that many people had absolutely no idea how E2EE actually works.
