I wanted something that was NOSTR and Bitcoin only with no email, text or fiat rails. This entailed multiple lessons on how many things worked like from Ray like nostr:nprofile1qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0sprdmhxue69uhkummnw3ez6vfwde3x7tnpdenkzmnf9e3k7qgkwaehxw309ajkgetw9ehx7um5wghxcctwvshsgsj66w .

If I was still vibe coding without getting this intel, this app would be 6 months out at least.

We had our first couple alpha testers complete 3 day fasts today.

Nick from @westmajor was one of them.

A 3 day fast is something I WOULD actually wish on my worst enemy because it’s hard to be enemies if you can share this experience.

I asked Nick about how he felt today and it’s similar to others that complete fasts.

It’s always this unbelievable grin.

It’s so difficult to complete but so worth it to prove to yourself you can do it. You can detect (I think I can) when someone lies about a fast because you can’t fake that grin of someone who actually did it.

So that’s what motivated me to vibe code something that looked like the right motivators to help people get to this feeling.

I wanted to write a sick thinkboi piece for a few weeks on vibe coding but the story is that this app works because a few hours before a demo day hackathon presentation, I desperately messaged a bitcoin & NOSTR anon Ray for help and he was like “ok”.

After the agreed upon engagement when I didn’t hear from him after a few hours I withdrew him from GitHub and Replit.

It turns out I didnt hear from him because he was actually just working on something that wouldn’t embarrass my family and he lost a night’s sleep doing it.

So the thinkboi post here is just that this app works because Ray is as good as they come as a developer and a human I only had the ability to message someone this talented with the same values as me because of Bitcoin and NOSTR.

Definitely vibe code just vibe friend real devs to help you at some point.
