Thomas Paine is the only founding father I'd have a pint with.

The rest are shitcoins.

My first coffee in 4 months...

Before that, 3-6 a day for 20 years.

Couldnt even finish it!

I have been open and honest about everything I have worked on in this space for 5+ years.

Strong believer in working in the open. If you have a problem with me just ask.

I own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended.

Four ruffians break into my house.

"What the devil?" I exclaim as I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle.

Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and it nails the neighbor's dog.

I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads!" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and shrapnel set off car alarms.

Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He bleeds out in front of frantic paramedics since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up.

Just as the founding fathers intended.

First weightlifting injury in a few years; felt something pop in my lower back while doing back extensions. Fuck.

My last injury was similar but on the front, pulling/ tearing an abdominal muscle while doing weighted sit-ups.

My wife and I welcome baby #2 in about a month from now. So excited and can’t wait.

It also coincides with my fiat job getting busy! I feel like a total Nostr lurker lately… but trying to catch as many Nostrich notes as possible.

Grayscale won their lawsuit against the SEC.

Let’s see what’s next.

jiu jitsu is revenge of the nerds

many very fit men think they can inherently fight & defend themselves, but when they do come to the gym they are flattened & humbled. See this on a weekly basis with shredded athletic newcomers and the look is always priceless.

everyone should try it to expand their reality

Filtering spam is a useful service. Many Nostr threads are already overrun by shitcoin airdrop scams for example. IMO, this problem gets worse as Nostr grows and simple mute lists are not enough because spammers can easily create new accounts for each new spam message. Primal's current capabilities in dealing with this are far from perfect. We may miss some spam, we may get false positives. Some users might disagree with us on the definition of spam. That's why we are building the tools to give more control and the final word to the user.

I am serious when I say that competent content filtering will be a key feature that Nostr clients will compete in. There will be clients that don't do any filtering whatsoever (or make filtering an opt in instead of opt out), and that will attract users who want that. We don't claim to have the final answer to any of this. We are simply working on providing the best service we can and doing so in a transparent manner (our entire stack is FOSS). We really hope that others will stand up services with different rules so that we can all learn from each other and adjust.

Confession: I use performance enhancing drugs.

There, I said it.

Every morning I boost my performance with coffee, often multiple cups. I’m addicted. Don’t judge me!
