Klaus Wuestefeld is most famous for Prevayler (2003), the earliest implementation of event sourcing that I came across.

His ideas around p2p sovereign computing where intellectually dishonest though. Everyone wants sovereign computing, that's a no-brainer, but scalable decentralization is a hard problem that nostr too hasn't solved yet (the scalable part).

It's like coming up with "world peace" as a great idea. No shit. We all want world peace. But it's the how that's kind of hard. I'm doer, the self-proclaimed visionaries out there can take their "great ideas" and stick them somewhere.

For the time and money spent lol.

yep, things weren't easy back then. Remember, that most laptops struggled to connect to WIFI in those days. Linux didn't even have drivers for most boards. Then imagine redesigning sockets on top of that mess.
