What’s the sudden hatred for LinkedIn? Did I miss something?

AH! That was the one! Thank you! My Start9 isn’t responding to Zeus right now but I’ll zap you when I get downstairs. 😅

Someone mentioned recently that there was a Nostr based Patreon sort of service. Did I imagine that and/or does someone know what I’m thinking of?

Hard apple cider with habanero, aged in bourbon barrels with agave. This is so damn smooth. It's also dangerous at 10% #beerstr

1) Those are extremely dangerous professions. We give men too little credit for the dangerous work they do.

2) When a certain portion of the citizenry is armed and antagonistic, police start training and behaving like they are in a war zone. Because they are.

3) Being in constant war modus is exhausting, so it's difficult to hire and retain the best staff and you increasingly have to hire people with military backgrounds because they're used to the environment.

4) But soldiers are trained to deal with enemy combatants, not citizens, so that's how they roll.

5) This is the lesson from Black Lives Matter. This is why black people complained about the police.

6) So, the police left. And everything immediately got worse. And now they are trying to get them to come back.

Cheers nostr, see you all on the new nym 🫡

K how is this much different from the year 2000 scare that turned out completely uneventful from my standpoint as like, at best a power user or expert? I mean, if some code by then has ossified that long, no dev updates that code and not enough users are support the maintenance of their code… like we don’t know what we don’t know in a lot of respects because we can I hope agree 2038 is still pretty far off so we’re aware of the potential severity of problems with this bug but kinda pretty uncertain still how much anyone should care or direct resources to trying to squash every bug… the original message (year 2000) was hey maybe try and plan your code so if it cares about calendars and such you gotta think about the consequences of that clock rolling over and starting again in the process. 24 years ago already I guarantee you there are 20 year old devs who are writing code might not even have ever heard of Y2K problem.

Plan for success, prepare for the worst in this case obviously which doesn’t really say much except you have the choice which way you direct your energy. You can also direct your thoughts to the “well Y2K had a similar situation, turned out fine. Am I being paranoid now or complacent?” Won’t know until 2038 🤷🏼🍿

These devices have no mechanism to push code updates to or hope users will pull appropriate updates in time? Or is your worry just simply too many apps to update, not enough devs?

Personal data should not be leakable.

Better yet, try to never collect it, in the first place.

MfW new npubs think social media is the entire world of software covered by Nostr, so they have no idea why we're having all these discussions and debates.

who has a lilygo t display s3 and would be up for alpha testing and contributing to this hardware nostr connect project?

I am not aware of this problem and am second guessing asking for more information… 😳
