Nostr Web Client

I'm experimenting with a new podcast where we discuss a host of intriguing ideas from the edge.

Here's the first episode with satellite.earth founder nostr:npub1lunaq893u4hmtpvqxpk8hfmtkqmm7ggutdtnc4hyuux2skr4ttcqr827lj!

We discuss a wide range of topics including: Terence McKenna, the world of language, evolution, Web of Trust, and the future of Nostr. At least two big ideas really clicked for me: 1) Nostr as the substrate for digital evolution (i.e. forking with checkpoints) and 2) Nostr as an API for market intelligence.

This was a ton of fun to make! I hope to do this regularly with Stu and many other interesting folks. Feedback and ideas for future episodes welcome 🙏 ⚡

nostr:npub18lzls4f6h46n43revlzvg6x06z8geww7uudhncfdttdtypduqnfsagugm3 and nostr:npub1lunaq893u4hmtpvqxpk8hfmtkqmm7ggutdtnc4hyuux2skr4ttcqr827lj touch privacy and radical honesty but I think they missed a crucial point - radical honesty requires anonymity and privacy. They are not the opposite sides of one coin - one requires the other, at least in this stage of human society.

One could argue that assassination markets, or their product - assassination politics is the purest expression of radical honesty.

Depends on the audience and the topic. I think what Stuart refers to is more about fighting the demons inside that make us lie unconsciously. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tw0sskCqrpI

> radical honesty requires anonymity and privacy

In a political context, yes. When dealing with strangers, security is a precondition for honesty. Maybe it's a bit more complex when considering the interpersonal or even "intra-personal" dimension.

Yea these are both great points. Honesty with "others" requires a real choice, for which privacy seems a necessary precondition.

Being honest with oneself is tougher. But that may also require the option of being private until someone is ready to confront "oneself"
