He and Vivek have outed themselves for H1B shills. Calling anyone who opposes them either lazy, entitled, racist, or all 3.

They both need to be deported. America is not an economic zone to be pillaged. It’s our home, and the only one we have. We voted to end wage suppression (mass immigration of all kinds).

I’m just glad this has come to a head now, before trump even entered the office

A lot of my friends on Twitter are not a good match for Nostr, because they just like to talk with their friends and actually are afraid of going viral because of the potential for abuse (virtual and IRL).

Nostr is like a less safe version of Twitter. There’s no private accounts, etc.

Elon is scum. Twitter has become untenable. The question is if there is a viable alternative.

Bitcoin price is cratering next year at the exact time it is scheduled to crater according to the previous halving cycles.

Haskell fixes that. And Elixir does too, to a degree, right?

He’s been wrong before. But at least he’s not boring!

You were there, I know you remember what it was like.

Bitcoin in particular loves to glom onto a mantra and repeat it like a hive mind. The devs were all in lockstep that “there’s no deletes on the internet”. And they almost got away with it if it wasn’t for some vocal users pointing out how retarded they were. The community eventually changed their tune.

It’s an example of how it always is. It’s a myth that the ecosystem supports independent dev competition. There are thought leaders and everyone falls in line until the thought leaders are publicly embarrassed and need to quietly change their tune (without admitting they were wrong of course)

Yeah and I fought for that tooth and nail and will continue to fight for it. We need to force devs to understand

The Nostr ethos is “the customer is always wrong”. Its top-down design pushed on plebs from on high.

The ethos is very deeply embedded. It began with concepts like “no deletes”.

When you don’t have push notifications, you force your user to manually check for new content.

If there isn’t new content relevant to them, you’ve wasted their time and you can’t earn back that trust.

Push notifications fix that

It’s not a dark pattern. It’s just a good UX (something Nostr devs hate, I know)

Bitcoin overlords are so much worse than Petrodollar overlords it’s actually hilarious.

When people realize how much they suck, they’re just gonna sell and walk away.

P2P developers hate documentation. They don’t even know what their own tools are doing lol

“Am I seeding all the stuff in this chat?”

“I don’t know”

“Well you made the app. Am I storing this crap on my device?”

“I don’t know”

P2P technology loves to be like “we’re gonna use your device storage, ok? But we don’t know how much. That’s up to you, sort of.”

Question: do we need to create an account on each platform / protocol vu their main apps and then log in to OpenVibe with the credentials once we do that? Or can OpenVibe provision the accounts within the OpenVibe app?

“Bro tell me your strategy”

“Never look at charts. Just buy bitcoin.”

Weird, built on Leaf, built on Willow, a reimagining of Earthstar.

Please… it’s so much granola… 😂

That’s interesting for sure. But no info on monetization or data retention policy?

Any recommendations on paid relays? How does one go about finding such things?

Also, do any paid relays actually include some kind of service level agreement in terms of uptime and retention?
