Interview with Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI.
I find it really scary how mediocre this guy appears in the interview. His answers are very unimaginative, full of dumb filling words such as "like" and "super". And content? Not much. Key points (maybe?): 1. yes, AGI might benefit capital against labor, tough luck. 2. the US private sector must outcompete China in AI 3. everything is all better in GPT4? 4. AI should be governed by an elected president?
I've read up on lightning clients and I like Breez the best... What's the best way to set up an LN address once I have a Breez wallet? Can someone point me in the right direction pls? :-)
Wow looks like Tucker Carlson got fired by Fox for sh*t talking some executives

Boom, Mehdi Hassan you got served! What a tool this guy. I read somewhere he is like a Chiwawa on crack 😂
What is the most cost effective way to buy BTC right now? What are the "hidden" costs that people overlook?
Ha, since I am newbie myself this might go hilariously wrong, but here we go: Zap is a fast and straightforward way of doing a small Bitcoin based payment. Underlying protocol name is Lighting Network from which we get the name zap.
Straightforward once it is all set up, that is… David b708f7392f588406212c3882e7b3bc0d9b08d62f95fa170d099127ece2770e5e made a YouTube video about it using Damus as a client app: https://youtu.be/FYbQLja9Oe8
I just gave him a zap for that.
Thanks, I'll check it out
What is a "zap"? Prefer explanation without using the terms Sat, Satoshi or NIP-57
Seriously, I tried reading 5-6 blogposts about them and my brain is now numb
Most content I've seen here so far is about Nostr itself
I thoroughly enjoyed this, involves a lot of "reductio ad absurdum" I share most of the concerns about the total weaponisation of COVID and climate change to opress, sensor and control. I am positive however about UBI and I am willing to keep an open mind about insect-based food although it's probably just the next huge hoax
[European security in the conception of Michael Gorbachev] meant not NATO, which is a military institution but a common European home from Vladiwostok to Lisbon and built on non military institutions.

Technical question for Nostr veterans. I "signed up" just by generating a key pair on the Amethyst app. Then I did the verification steps by linking to a Mastodon toot as well as my website. Do I need to do anything about the relays? I now have 19 added by default...
The biggest issue of our time is social inequality followed by climate change. We will never fix the latter if we don't first address the former. The global north is not doing anything relevant about either. While lately public discourse focuses somewhat on climate change, we barely talk about the wealth gap.
Hey Matt, you coming on here persuaded me to get a verified account as well. I knew about Nostr ever since Ed Snowden signed up. Who else is on here, how did you hear about it?
Keep up the good work, you're the best! I appreciate your integrity and style.
Knock-knock Nostr
