I made damus, npubs, and zaps ⚡️ Independent bitcoin core and lightning dev.

dave is going to be a lot more powerful with nostr-backed conversations

i mean you can just use nostr-sdk instead which is well documented and has more features. nostrdb is just if you want crazy performance.

atyh gets it

We do oldest first in damus ios so it reads chronologically… but i noticed twitter does newest first without even an oldest first option

yeah it makes no sense. I never enjoyed math until I actually needed it, like linear algebra for building games. I think I was in my 20s when I finally decided to learn it for real. my math classes growing up were useless.

The most obvious one: did the simplest rules lead to the most intelligence and complexity. Can simple rules understand its own existence?

purpose is just a construct for humans to give more meaning to their existence. there is no purpose. We are just a flicker of infinitesimal probability on a cosmic scale

he is still a legend, I wonder what hes up to

we need to get Chris Poole on nostr

correct

its caches all the way down

a lot of early nostr apps started with server-as-the-only-datastore but now many of us are making nostr apps local-first + set reconciliation with remote only when you need it.

the flexibility of choice here is super powerful. notedeck is local-first by default for any app you build inside it (its a nostr browser). local network or remote syncing is more of a business logic choice for the app.

me wondering why there is a slight 500ms delay when booting #notedeck. turns out it was fetching 11,000 notes (500 * 22 timelines) on a single core. I'm not even that mad now... but still will optimize. maybe we could do this lazily or make startup queries multi-core. pretty crazy it takes this much to even notice performance issues.

He liked a damus post on X the other day, maybe he knows about it

good to know... was deciding to use them or not but seemed vibe coded
