This is especially true once you realize how razor-thin the margins are between some wins and losses. nostr:note1n8myx6uyjxac8z3whnhg7r8k33qulq99scs5m0c74arzu64jh6cqse8lmf

Extremely sketchy to not have your open source repo synced up with your releases, especially when your builds aren’t reproducible.

Every detail matters. The little things add up and compound.

Constructed 400 BC. Surely this is the oldest structure anyone’s played a game in, right?

Be firm and never argue with prospective customers about your prices. It’s not worth the time.

## Progress this week

I was told recently that my update walls of text are too much. So, I'll try to keep things concise this week. 😅

This week has been all about building the reference implementation, which is quickly becoming a full-fledged client instead of just a reference implementation. I've not quite gotten to the MLS portion of the client yet but it does already support multiple accounts (including ephemeral accounts) and loads legacy (NIP-04) chats and full contact lists. So far, I've not implemented NIP-104 so there's not yet any updates to the MLS spec or other dependencies.

If you've got experience with using messengers in hostile environments (authoritarian regimes, you've been de-platformed, etc.) please get in touch. I'd love to hear more about what you'd like to see in a communication tool.

In the meantime, I'll be over here in the corner coding with my headphones on. 👨‍💻

Onward and Upwards!

Would love to test this!

When’s the best time to go to Costa Rica?

I must say: all the bots I’ve seen so far are uninspired and lazy.

You can do better.
