It's a beautiful time of year for sailing.
Many client devs have gotten together to this week to discuss building out and implementing NIP-104. This will give Nostr a truly private and secure messaging alternative to Telegram. Based on recent news, the timing is perfect. It's going to take a lot of time, development, and funding, but I have faith in their drive and their passion. I also have faith in nostr:nprofile1qqspwwwexlwgcrrnwz4zwkze8rq3ncjug8mvgsd96dxx6wzs8ccndmcpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtc9qeg9l 🤙🏻💜🫂
Is there a forum, Nostr thread, or GitHub issue that people can follow the dev discussions? I'm a software dev and I'd like to understand the technical trade offs and limits.
I'm enjoying the recording of the #Nostrasia conference.

The Chinese are harvesting helium-3 from the moons surface to power next generation nuclear reactors. Google it. It's going to be the next big space race.
One of things i find myself doing a lot these days is getting chatgpt to write a function and then using another chat instance to check the code. I’ll do this over and over until all the bugs are caught. Since each chat is like a new code reviewer it often finds all of the bugs after many iterations.
I’ll even give the code review from one of the AIs to the one who wrote the code, it will then give a different implementation based on the ai review. I then give that implementation to the reviewers implementation and ask if its better or not. I can very quickly get to an optimized and less buggy function this way.
This feels very *human*. This is exactly how code review tends to play out in meatspace.

I need to give this a try. I've been really impressed with Copilot X so far.
Thanks to Telegram, I've been able to view propaganda and reports from both sides of the war in Ukraine. I doubt there has ever been a war with so much information available from both sides.
I hope that Nostr can eclipse the ease of sharing information in future conflicts. Understanding both sides is critical. There are no good guys and bad guys. Just interests, propaganda, States, and individuals.
Finally! One of the worst parts of living in Oregon was not being able to pump my own gas, and being forced to wait on an overworked attendant.
I'm glad to see that surveys and statistics are showing that return-to-office mandates are not going well. Personally, I'd rather work for 50% less salary if it was the difference between working from home vs working from the office.
Why a browser? Why couldn't the web server stitch all the content together on-the-fly and serve it like any other static content?
This website is hosted by Nostr relays: https://nostr-webserver-3c29f7957ffe.herokuapp.com/e/1efc13c6ffbaf60c0347baf89f6ecaad22f74abf82165fcdb55ef7e8cca8a597
The HTML (kind 5392), JavaScript (kind 5394), CSS (kind 5393), and Images (Kind 1965/1964) are all hosted inside several relays and can be moved to any other relay if needed by simple broadcasting.
One day browsers will fetch nostr:
Code is here: https://github.com/vitorpamplona/nostr-web-server
So images are stored as base64? And everything else (html, is, css) is stored as text?
I just discovered the qortal Blockchain. I'm starting to read through their documentation.
Anyone heard of this before? I guess it's been around for 8 years.
Any issues I should worry about?
I'm going to keep asking this: is anyone working on a group chat interface for Nostr?
