This is a great example of what makes Nostr awesome.

I am working on a broadcast app for streaming in the style of Facebook Live or Whatnot.

Before I have announced anything and without even knowing I'm doing it, TK is building extra distribution for my streamers.

This kind of network effect is just unbeatable.

Sounds like a good start but that's only 5% of headcount, and total salaries and wages is only 5% of spending. They'll need to go much harder if they're going to make a difference

I see what "Karnage and 210 others" started and I wonder about building a bot army to do it for real.

I like your post

A swarm of 210 bots copy me

You feel awesome

Spam, but good for karma.

Inspired and back on the tools today. Whole day spent in Cline. "Wrote" thousands of lines of totally functional code that did what it needed to do.

I have no context for how this compares with pre-AI.

I have no context for how this compares to where we are going.

It's a no context kind of world.

Or curate your relays. I also don't see any of this.

I made the same move. The plan/act workflow Is great, esp. plan mode with auto-approve on.

Beach volleyball. Eggs and bacon and another espresso, just because.

Happy Easter weekend and GM

Sure. I was primarily thinking about your OPโ€” For me it tracks that the admin which believes the house is on fire is more active than the admin which doesn't.

I don't have a horse in the race on US politics, but as an outsider โ€”

The US appears to be insolvent.

And the republican platform is to say, we acknowledge we're potentially insolvent and are going to try to do something about it.

And the democrat platform is to say, we don't acknowledge we're insolvent and so all those things you're doing are wrong and we prefer status quo.

Is that a fair summary?

You get paid by taking risk that others aren't prepared to take.

AU?

Yes for me. You?

GM! Just decided to take nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm Hub Pro for a spin. So far cannot tel a difference and cannot find how I can:

Customizable lightning addresses

Very few self-custodial wallets offer lightning addresses, even though they are the easiest way to receive bitcoin payments. Every Alby Account comes with a default lightning address for free, but with Alby Pro, you can customize your lightning address as you wish.

If you know how to do it and yet maintain my current one, that would be great!

For reference: https://blog.getalby.com/introducing-pro-plan-more-features-and-convenience/

Perhaps this will help? I wrote this a while back about normal Alby (not pro). But it has a method on how to get the details from Alby in order to populate the .wellknown folder at your domain. https://rodbishop.npub.pro/post/ee8a46bc/

Great for fitness though. Squeeze in 20 burpees here, 20 star jumps there.

It's wild right.

To get my last company up I needed to split equity 50-50 with a founding CTO, and give another 25% to investors to fund salaries for our first engineers.

For my next I'm thinking I can get through that whole initial stage retaining 100% equity.

Vibe coding Nostr login with nsec. What could possibly go wrong?

I was on Claude 3.7, have stepped it down to 3.5. No longer trust Cline with ChatGPTโ€“ context window blows out.

Cline very slow today, which feels frustrating. How quickly i have become used to this super power!

Two ways

1. Your AI agent needs tools, MCP gives them tools they can use, but by default the AI can only use tools that it has access to locally. Gzuuus, DBTH and others have shipped DVMCP which means that any AI can use any DVM tool served over Nostr as a data vending machine.

E.g. "Hey AI, go to Nostr and find a tool that allows me to interact with xyz service, then use it." the AI will use Nostr to find the tool it needs, and then use the tool over Nostr, even if it's not installed.

2. Your AI agent can do Nostr stuff like send batch zaps or emotes etc.

As I understand nostr:nprofile1qqsv73dxhgfk8tt76gf6q788zrfyz9dwwgwfk3aar6l5gk82a76v9fgpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszxthwden5te0wfjkccte9eekummjwsh8xmmrd9skctcppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0dutak6 the app is for viewers of the stream, not for the streamer themselves.

To start a stream I add zap.stream rtmp and streamkey to my broadcast app, and it makes that part easy.

And I can use any broadcast app, like prism or larix or whatever, so long as it can push to rtmp.

BUT, if you as a viewer message me on zap.stream (or zap me, or whatever), my broadcast app doesn't show me this. To see it, I will have to run and watch a second completey separate device in order to see my audience chat.

Big gap

Been looking at streaming.

Streamer broadcast apps (e.g. prism, larix, etc) are dumb pipes that push video from a phone or other device to a server for their viewers.

But streamers don't just want to output video, they want to see and respond to live chat.

No open source streamer apps provide this. Only centralised apps do (e.g. the twitch app provides this but only for twitch chat).

If only there was an open source chat standard that could be integrated into streamer broadcast apps.

Streamers go out of their way to configure their setup, so managing keys would be little extra work.

Viewers can be anon or transient and don't need to know their live chat is riding Nostr rails.

Sovereign streaming seems very aligned to Nostr ethos.

Lightning dust?

AI and free time are honestly amazing.

Australian election in four weeks. The choice is

a) a party whose election promises are to implement tax on unrealised capital gains and price fixing at supermarkets, and that implemented the social media ban for minors, compulsory digital IDs, and attempted to pass the misinformation and disinformation bill.

b) the party that implemented lockdowns and border closures.

Seriously
