Cashu is looking for an experienced Rust dev to work with us on a Cashu Development Kit (CDK) and implement the Nutshell mint in Rust using the CDK. Open-source funding opportunities for a strong candidate exist. DM me and I'll show you the nut 🥜.

nostr:npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc you adding these to nostrich work - two more job postings I saw this AM

No but I am rebuilding ostrich.work to make it free for postings and much much better.

Is a strong interest in rust and (btc,cashu,nostr) enough? :)

Nut envy. I want to see 👀

Man! I'm just starting to learn Rust. I love how fast it is, and the error catching at compile time is great!

Oh! I just thought of an amazing application for Chaumian mints yesterday!

So the tokens are anonymous by definition, and one cannot know from whom a token has come solely by the token, and they can be transferred once and redeemed by the recipient.

Votes.

Secure, digital voting that is fully anonymous, secure, and cryptographically provable, etc. The ballot booths would issue the tokens to registered voters, the tokens being created and wrapped encrypted envelopes only the respective voters can unwrap. Voters will the send their tokens wrapped in an encrypted envelope to the selectee, who will "cash them in" for provable polls. Counting would be done basically instantaneously. For issue voting, the conditions could have their own respective tokens (Boolean or multiple options), and the voter broadcasts their selected token to multiple polls to mitigate the chance of censorship.

I am working on mostro.network in rust...if you are interested I am here.

I think the new paradigm for higher education (college) is going to be small projects and companies.

The college system today is dead, they just don't know it yet. So, what if, instead of paying tuition to a school more interested in a failing athletics program, you just pay Calle to be an apprentice (if you want to be a software engineer). After 4 years of literately "paying your dues" you will probably know more than a CS degree at CalTech.

This would force companies to reconfigure into the education space but I think it's doable and the chances a student wants to leave after full vestment? Almost 0% unless they just suck and it's the company that says, "Hey. You're done."

This is the way education used to be not more than 100 - 200 years ago. We need to bring this back.

The real world is built on human networks.

Traditionally these have been limited by geography but that need not be the case any more with the internet and Bitcoin.

I’d love to see Bitcoiners start doing their own student exchanges like how powerful families used to send their eldest sons to the Kings court - that was partially to keep an eye on them and have leverage over them which we don’t need, but the child also got a proper education from the brightest people of the time.

And similarly I’d rather have kids apprenticed to good Bitcoiners to learn real skills after they get a proper grounding in solid education. This post I saw recently on Xitter was really interesting on this idea
