I kind of agree. I am interested in Bitcoin as a technology not as my lord and savior. It is just another way to transact and kind of a terrible one at that.

I also like nostr as a technology, but it isn't all I want to talk about. It has interesting features, but also kinda sucks. I want to see posts about people doing real thing like making chairs or rockets or starting families.

But my experience on LinkedIn has been even worse. All I see is clout chasing and recruiters who don't remotely understand the industries they are hiring for.

LinkedIn has a lot of that, but it also has some gems of genuine insight and humor.

Again, maybe I'm just nerd enough to appreciate LinkedIn posts lol.

As to Nostr, I want to get a reading group going on Alexandria once it's up and running.

What kind of reading?

I want to read and discuss Aristotle's Poetics.

I've been thinking about the proper place for a reading group and I was thinking that the kind 11 discussions would work well.

You could have a kind 11 containing a

["t", "readings"] tag, and then tags defining the book to be discussed, and we could group and sort by title or author.

Then I could make sure that they also appear grouped on Jumble Discussions, under "Literature" > "Readings".

Like ["subject", "Poetics"]

or ["author", "Aristotle"]

Then, you'd see new entries on Jumble and could respond to replies there, as well.

I like that. We can trial-run ideas on Jumble and view the threads in Alexandria later.

Yeah, the idea is that the two clients can ping-pong social events.

I already implemented this.

On a related note, I was thinking that, since Alexandria has a universal event editor, I can trial-run events that are specced but don't have a UI yet. Such as citations. I have some ideas...

Oh, definitely. I actually publish from there all the time. Works so reliably. 🤩
