Oooooh I had to pull down my follower list!

Gossip might be my new favorite thing

Running the latest gossip on a mac m1 and it seems to be working except my main feed is empty. Except for the last note I posted...

Some of my DMs are show up and some of my own posts...

Hoping I can get main feed to show up

Hi from Gossip!✨

I guess if you run your own node you can just close the channel and you get all your sats back that way.

I often encounter people who reject everything that the "mainstream" is telling them. They do this because humans are partly pattern machines. We see a pattern and extrapolate it. So if the "mainstream" lies over and over, it's tempting to just believe everything they say is a lie.

But the reason all you hear from mainstream are the lies and the evil is primarily that your input feed is curated to bias for such things. You are being focused onto things that are not representative. Making statistical inferences like "it's all lies" is actually a bad inference because it is only your feed that is all lies.

Sure, there is enough data to day that Biden is probably guilty of corruption. But you should also leave room for doubt. Maybe Ray Epps wasn't an FBI agent.

Case in point is global warming. IIn fact, that is my litmus test. People who say the whole thing is a scam to have an excuse for world government socialism... they have this thinking problem. They are the ones who cannot actually find truth because they are relying on simple statistical patterns that don't represent reality, rather than going and looking for themselves at actual evidence. They are also the most confident and comfortable in their ignorance, which makes total sense. If they weren't comfortable in their ignorance, they might have discovered the truth. This is probably the underlying cause of the Dunning-Krueger effect.

The world is complex. Simple answers are probably wrong. Epstein might have killed himself. Steel does soften and lose structural holding ability well below it's melting point. The UFO pictures are probably reflections or other artifacts. Most people are not malicious. But many people are highly deluded. And the global mean temperature is increasing primarily due to more CO2 being in the atmosphere than ever before.

Feel free to disagree but this is not a thread I want to have arguments in. This is just a thought I wanted to put out there. And agree or disagree, I'll keep working to make gossip the best nostr client I can make it.

This is a refreshing post. Thank you for writing this out.

Chilean sea bass. Marinate in lime, garlic for 10-30 minutes, then put some oil and lots of dill on it.

Air fry for 10-14 minutes depending on how thick the piece is.

Comes out super crispy on the outside and juicy/flaky on the inside.

I misread the bounty amount as .5 bitcoin for the bounty, not .005 bitcoin and was surprised because it doesn’t seem *too* hard

Thanks for everything you’re doing to support damus

Isn’t this pretty simple though?

Would an authentication that just signs a challenge event from the private relay count?

It seems mostly UI / relay interface work with the damus app right?

Oh shit. I really want this.

I think there’s one feature missing and that is:

- make sure no other relays are connected

Yeah but they seem to be complying with lots of government data requests…. And their whole schtick is privacy?

#asknostr what’s your favorite email provider / solution?

😂🫂

Honestly, I want more features than less in my #nostr client so I probably do want the emacs of clients

Disclaimer: I’m an emacs user

Great, now my phone is overheating

Am I the only one that reads that as a paradox?

Different =/= inconsistent ?

I thought that too - I’m trying to read the whole thing with an open mind and finish the book before fully drawing conclusions.

Wasn’t expecting this much discussion about art in the bitcoin standard.
