The Russian "Firehose of Falsehood" Propaganda Model.
To combat it, you can "find ways to help put raincoats on those at whom the firehose of falsehood is being directed".
We've Been Measuring the Economy All Wrong.
Current models assume a competitive economy but ours is more monopolistic, meaning tax cuts don't result in companies investing those savings in R&D and hiring; they just give it to shareholders instead.

I can’t re-share anymore in #[0] . New bug?
The fact that a Cashu like or lightning like implementation of proof-of-PoW (non-zero cost networking, basically) is not implemented yet in TOR strikes me as weird. It’s such a natural fit that it’s non-existente strikes me as odd.

Because it’s on millions of devices and active for everyone who pays for iCloud, your anonymity set is extremely large.
Also, my mother now has a vpn without knowing what it is or why it’s good. But it just works.
Maybe I’m missing the joke.
Is debug.log the bitcoin node log file 😅 ?
That doesn’t exist yet, does it?
It would be awesome to have a paid @damus client that maybe supports a private cloud relay or other premium features for 4000 sats per month maybe?
Coinbase reward is the name of the coins that a miner receives when he finds a block.
First they where 50, then 25, then 12.5 and now 6.25 ₿ per block.
The trick is: these ₿ are “locked” till some time after finding the block. This is for a simple reason: sometimes competing blocks are found and briefly coexist before the weakest chain (with least POW behind it) reorganizes and starts to build on the strongest chain again. This is called a reorg.
Imagine hundreds of relays, all relaying notes of long form text with entire Wikipedia or Internet Archive articles in it.
Now imagine all these people who “host” this data at home to receive DCMA takedown requests.
This does not end well 😢

What is Damus Purple? A paid version of the free #[3] app?
The connection makes sense.
Image a miner being forced by a government x to not mine a certain transaction or even build on another block altogether.
This miner could physically leave the county and ship the ASICs over the border before the “nefarious” transaction’s coin base reward is payed out 🤔
Thereby the don’t break the law and don’t go to jail in case they ever visit back home.
In the #[8] client you can automatically translate to a language of choice. 👍
#Zap
#Bitcoin
#Nostr
#Plebchain
testing
#[0] the counter for the number of relays in the public feed page is broken 😢.


#[1] #[2] #[3] any thoughts on this? Or hands too full with sticking to Nostr only 😅 ?
What if someone forked Breez and added #Nostr capabilities, maybe just copy paste @damus code?
Front running Elon’s “X” project seems more important than ever before 😅
Nowhere on that website can I make out that this is a satire 🤔
This makes me wonder why those 4 relays that you had left in your list had apparently failed to save your entire relay list?
