Jason Lowery doesnt appear to understand the technical side of Bitcoin, mining and whats actually being secured. I dont have the physical book but have a PDF. The parts Ive skimmed left me under the impression that he weaved together buzzwords but mostly nonsense. He'll do well in a gov middle management position where hes neither responsible for actual implementation or earnest strategy decisions.

It may not be the prettiest code, but its working for what I need it to do. This is the basic logic for handling a NIP-42 authentication request, leveraging updates in forked python-nostr library

This seems like a nice community
yes.
Now we need a way to incentivize this not to happen

Today's wonderful views on the trail.



Cheerio to the regular hikers and runners that help remark the trail in the fall as leaves make it hidden

Hoping to hear more about Rancho San Satoshi progress. Whats needed, any way people can get involved, what the key challenges are
One of the surrealist experiences is seeing a newborn for the first time that you've heard talked about on a podcast.
Ive been following the Rock Paper Bitcoin podcast put on by Business Cat and Fundamentals, and recently, Business Cat's family grew by one with the birth of his son. Yesterday I made the trip to the Central PA Bitcoin Meetup and he was there with his family. It was a worthwhile experience chatting a bit with different people in the group and seeing the youth that will hopefully be following in our footsteps and helping build the new free world.
I agree. Use of `the` implies that theres only one Nostr, and in reality there is an unknown quantity. If we switch to `thy Nostr` it may be a bit too possessive. Perhaps `a Nostr` is more appropriate?
Migrating...
from taxis to Lyft
from hotels to AirBnB
from fiat to Bitcoin
from sms to Signal
from twitter to Nostr
from dropbox to Nextcloud
from grocers to Farmer and Butcher
from spotify to Wavlake
Its pronounced Nostrich
I gotta hand if to nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5. While, bitcoin is disrupting finance, and lightning is disrupting bitcoin, Zeus is disrupting lightning.
I don't mean disrupt in a bad way, just shaking things up.
I appreciate their attitude of getting people to self-custody on Lightning and not caring if this causes the entire network to break.
I agree. If too many people using it, or it being "too decentralized" breaks the network, then I giess the network better change and adapt. Because complaining and telling people they can't do that doesn't work in a permissionless system.

For Zeuspay, all zaps are 50% fees and I get 50%, is this expected behavior? nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5
Thats the expected behavior for recipients using Zeuspay. To avoid fees like that you could run your own node and webserver, or opt for common custodial solutions. Always tradeoffs.
Which of the following is not mentioned in the Bitcoin Whitepaper?
β― Double Spend
β― Gold
β― Blockchain
β― Hashcash
Hal's initial estimates were based on 20 million as well
Just beginning a rewatch of Alien as part of my personal #Halloween movie fest... I think the name of the ship alone makes it a fair contender for a future Nostr movie night, don't you?

Getting your own events is straightforward and mostly a series of paginated calls. Depending on relay, may also need to AUTH.
Getting context of events you replied to, and those replying to you is a Big-O type problem requiring additional queries for each event pulled back in the initial set. Doable, but a higher cost is appropriate, and for best performance and reduced network consumption should be offered as a service by the relay operator
of just yours that you published? or additional context?
