👨‍💻 software developer 🔒 secure element firmware dev 📨 nostr.land relay all opinions are my own.

For context, this is a smart card based HWW I am developing.

I’m currently checking out CryptoGuide’s fork of nostr:npub17tyke9lkgxd98ruyeul6wt3pj3s9uxzgp9hxu5tsenjmweue6sqq4y3mgl that supports smartcard readers.

unfortunately the chip is about the size of your nail

Big things are coming 👀

Try vibe coding a smart card and see how many vulnerabilities you can rack up 🤣

🤣 maybe if they had more useful contributions to things like Nostr, such as reviewing NIPs and building a significant amount of the base protocol… :)

Also, the NOTICE: Failed to receive messages have nothing to do with it, they are for writes, not reads.

I'll be pushing an update to the indexer soon to improve a whole bunch of things.

The actual experience is more like repeating the same computations twice, being extremely careful about the order of operations, double checking *everything*, and so on...

I feel like code as documentation needs to be a more popular concept.

If it is readable code then it is much more understandable + easier to use correctly than manual documentation.

Had many cases where the documentation was wrong, but the code was correct.

Actually, what if the icons were per-name? And the favicons could be cached by URL instead.

This means:

- Any icon changes show up quickly (after NIP-05 validation, aka restart of app)

- Custom icons can be awarded to different users (like team members, contributors, etc. for Damus)

- Icons can still be cached

otherwise, LGTM.

Cool

This is going to be much better than anything that currently exists.

I have talked to Tropic Square and I had a really poor impression. They are pretty inexperienced in the SE world from my talks with them, and custom firmware was barely a priority for them (which I asked about)

My current work about open SE platforms is with one of the big 3 SE companies, which has been pretty supportive. (I’ll let you guess which, there’s only one company that would barely consider it.)

writing from Nostur over here because Damus iOS is eating my data…

I could probably make a solution for this eventually but I have more important stuff rn
