Coffee shops are staffed by young chicks and their customers are old bags. It's a form of generational wealth transfer.
Here is my proposal for a 30 minutes talk about a better way to develop Nostr softwares in general, contrary to mainstream nostr believes.
https://github.com/nostrworld/nostriga/issues/13
“Nostr Native” vs “Nostr Integrated”
Nostr Native is applications that builds 95%+ features with Nostr relays only.
Nostr Integrated is applications that builds its own system and only integrate with Nostr for parts that make sense.
I will use case studies such as nostr:npub1kmwdmhuxvafg05dyap3qmy42jpwztrv9p0uvey3a8803ahlwtmnsnhxqk9 nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm, zap.stream by nostr:npub1v0lxxxxutpvrelsksy8cdhgfux9l6a42hsj2qzquu2zk7vc9qnkszrqj49 as “Nostr Integrated” applications and most other Nostr clients as “Nostr Native” applications.
I will argue that “Nostr Integrated” is the better way build applications.
I will then dive deep into how blowater.app transform from “Nostr Native” to “Nostr Integrated” and promote a little bit about my new project https://github.com/BlowaterNostr/relayed at the very end.
Please vote for me!
I believe this talk will be very insightful for developers and users.
Native / relays only. Even Native-- remove as many features as possible. Make it really simple and robust.
What is then?
It's a sleepy place. Get used to it.
What you looking for?
You need some PepeCoins for energy drinks.
Looks good but not nearly as funny as Saylors face badly photoshopped on Sailor Moon
How about Michael Saylor as Sailor Moon?
I got another example, with wallets. Now alby adds their own fragmentation
https://github.com/getAlby/nostr-wallet-connect
There are a shit ton of bullshit connectors now
Wallet should be separate from client/browser. There is no need to make more wallets. There is a huge need to make better clients.
Expectation: censorship resistant platform where dissidents and protesters freely express their controversial opinions and plans
Reality: zap me $5 and see what happens
I think this already happened with 0xchat and Amethyst/Damus. Plus, smaller differences and bugs within each client.
needed some face cream and plastic bags. it's 11.40 am and i ordered them on amazon with FREE SAME DAY delivery. supposed to get them by 10 pm.
what is even more insane is i had up to 5 pm today to order them and still have them delivered by 10 pm FOR FREE.
i understand nostr:npub19wdg9zgna9zmyv25qefrcrjh3grkht2kag7yafunzwf0wrg63g7qsmlx5z point about how Prime is a Ponzi scheme but many Ponzi schemes have outlasted their doubters ...
for local box stores to compete with Amazon they will need to switch to 24/7 operation because if you can wait a few hours why would you waste the energy to drive to a store when you can have it delivered to your door ?
had a talk with a moron in the gym who couldn't remember his lock combination and told him to get a lock like mine where you set your own combination. turned out he bought his lock at home depot because he's too dumb to use the internet, and they don't sell locks like mine at home depot.
i guess there is still customer base for box stores but anybody with a living brain cell will use Amazon.
One mild concern some folks have is data collection. A private company knows where you live and will notify all lock and cream vendors about it. Not a real problem though IMO.
