Yeah, the Nostr Central Committee rejected my idea and...
Discussion
This was one of the main things that drew me to development on nostr
It's the only thing that has kept me from storming off. 😂
Other developers have left because they didn't understand that they can just ignore the repo.
Like, why can't Kind 1 notes be versioned?
They can.
Just make them like that and they're like that.
Yeah. A git repo was never the right vehicle for a set of 50+ specifications which are usually only dependant on one or two others.
A global state, which is embedded into a git commit id, is antithetical to nostr
But we do need a place to publish and discuss ideas and I'm going to use a note-based Wiki for that.
We're already doing that, really, by publishing in our various repos and then writing a note announcing it, but we could just skip the repo bit.
Sort of a developer knowledge base.
Do you have a spec for this?
nostr:npub1m3xdppkd0njmrqe2ma8a6ys39zvgp5k8u22mev8xsnqp4nh80srqhqa5sf has a client and an upload tool I've used to create test notes.
He's added the whole "Zettel" aspect, which is 🤌, and I want to try loading some NIPs in, so that we can see how it all works and maybe make some adjustments.
I'm just going to move the NIPs all over to notes.
I'm going to move yours, too. Fight me. LOL
What's the client called? Do you have a link?
Here's his stuff.
I'd love to see the evaluation of the validity of a NIP, or a version of a NIP, scored in terms for ACK and nACKs from my WoT, clients implemented, clients that actively break it, etc. That would be more useful than whether it gotbmerged or not.
Trust-rankings, yeah, and interoperability and implementation stats. You could even have an automated test attempt to write notes according to all existing models and see if they're properly displayed and post the results (accepts NIPs with eventIDs bunchofnumbers, otherbunchofnumbers, etc.)
And I like my idea of "like" notes, so that you can increase trust for objects (including other notes) and notify your followers of them.
Would be cool to have a list of those "like" notes, so that you could keep track of your favorite things.
I got the idea from the highlighter.
Okay, GN. ☺️
Guess I should nostr:npub15qydau2hjma6ngxkl2cyar74wzyjshvl65za5k5rl69264ar2exs5cyejr because this is a hellthread now. 😂 Can barely read it.
