that moment when you need to be extremely precise with your time
Woah put an NSFW tag there, what if children saw it! lol
Petty complaint:
ISO 8601 is the only date format that doesn’t force the reader to guess.
Look at these three strings:
17/09/25 14:00
25/09/17 2:00
09/17/25 14:00
Without context you can’t tell which number is the year, the month, or the day; every interpretation is equally plausible, so every reader loses.
2025-09-17 14:00,
Boooom, Instantly unambiguous: left-to-right you get year, month, day, hour, minute. It also sorts correctly as plain text.
Please, use ISO 8601 everywhere, anything else just wastes time and confuses people.
As an Italian, I am ashamed of our government
“Big drama today in the Tor community.
Conrad Rockenhaus, a Tor operator based out of Michigan, United States, was arrested in 2020 after refusing to cooperate with the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation
Rockenhaus, a disabled United States military veteran, ran the fastest Tor node in the United States. He was approached sometime in late 2019 when the FBI requested he allow them arbitrary access to his exit node and allow them to decrypt traffic. He denied their request.
Subsequently, in February, 2020 his home was raided. He was arrested for violating the CFAA (Computer Fraud and Abuse Act). It was alleged that he was a disgruntled ex-employee causing problems at his former place of employment.
Interestingly, to "help resolve the matter", law enforcement requested he decrypt his Tor exit node to prove his innocence (???). After he refused, he was held in a pre-trial detention cell for over 3 years. He was denied bail after law enforcement stated Mr. Rockenhaus used Linux to "access the dark web" and he was "not complying" and not allowing them access to this Tor exit node.
After Mr. Rockenhaus' wife filed an official complaint, and Mr. Rockenhaus was miraculously released, he was raided by the United States Marshal Fugitive Task Force TWO TIMES(???).
They took him out his home, threw him to the ground, beat him, smashed his windows, and threatened to murder his animals.
They are still requesting Mr. Rockenhaus allow them to access his Tor exit node. Mr. Rockenhaus still has not granted them that privilege.
All of this has been captured on home security camera footage. Additionally, his wife has released all court documents.
See subsequent post for more information.” -vxunderground, on X

Fuck this shit. This is the kind of thing I'm afraid of, being in the privacy business.
In general, DO NOT use LLMs for anything security related. I'm against vibe coding in general, but ESPECIALLY for anything security related. Please
where's my chocolate hodl butter? how's that coming along?
I'm listening to it right now!
Hes doing the thing journalists do where he says one thing and then "oh I'm not saying that at all".
To be clear: I like Tucker Carlson, and I agree with most of the points he raised, the conservation was interesting and Sam Altman was not prepared that's for sure, but I think that part of the interview is a bit iffy
Tucker Carlson accused Sam Altman of murdering someone on YouTube... I'm not the biggest fan of Sam Altman, but that's too far, I know didn't start the allegations but still
Please don't store 64KB of JSON. Your CPU will hate you.
We really should move to binary formats for everything. I already do it for nostr:npub1yy9wdef5us8af5q3zl3fs5usndygl3wge7xj5qkk5mtq2g4swwhs9ls23g it's not that hard.
easy to have false positives, and easy to counter.
shift everything 1 bit, literally and suddenly the control block doesn't get filtered but any client can still render the image
if that gets stopped somehow, you just xor the block with some value, or a bunch of other similar things
it is not possible to stop this.
this can't be "fixed" due to the way merkle trees work, any "fix" would undoubtedly break real p2tr scripts
regardless of whether they're core nodes or knots cores, connecting to AWS nodes only disadvantages you
This is already possible.

Made https://github.com/stutxo/labitbu as a meme for example, let's see how knots can prevent this without reverting taproot (f08fd61d48f79eeb0c4bc9e58f2d7ecad0e20e5d6411b588590cb0480c8e7fbe), the 80B limit didn't stop anything, and neither did your filter.
Because the block size. We don't want large blocks, that was a debate a long time ago, and we agreed that large blocks have more downsides than small blocks.
you misunderstand something critical, you STILL get those transactions.
sure, but it doesn't get rid of those transactions on the network
wait till you learn that your domain is not your domain, and that ICANN, or anyone asking them for it, can take it over at any point in time
I'd argue that aqua pouting makes the kernel more valuable

⚡️🇫🇷 NEW - "Digital curfew": "The idea is to require platforms to turn off their tools at 10pm", says Laure Miller, rapporteur for the commission of inquiry.

I think that france is about to have a nepal moment
how the fuck does one celebrate death?
I don't even care what side of the political spectrum they are, but who CELEBRATES the death of someone?
this can't be real
It could be a nip-39 extension, no reason why not, but clients should still handle it like they do 05s
I support this. But tags not another freaking JSON property in the kind 0. The string json in kind 0 was the most retarded decision about Nostr, maybe only after using JSON as the only communication protocol.
That's awesome! I kinda expected that, but actually seeing the numbers is crazy. This is also why I think that outbox + negative queries + Bluetooth mesh is going to be essential in the long run.
If all phones store even 5 GB of "their network", we could truly drop all dependencies on the internet. Every device runs a relay and allows serving negative queries (or bloom filters), and is accessible via Bluetooth.
To me that would be the most efficient way for Nostr to spread and be even more decentralized than Bitcoin
There's a tool on Linux that basically does this, and it works most of the time, it's called CRIU.
honestly, I never thought that the porn epidemic online was a tactic to get every user KYC'd.
that thought never even crossed my mind, I always thought it was just because we live in a gooning epidemic and people can't stand still without watching some porn all day long (and in part that is the reason), but in hindsight it makes perfect sense that it's also a tactic to enforce KYC
I think the biggest problem with git is the same as the biggest problem with email, it started decentralized, we didn't hold onto the decentralization enough and... Well... Now git is essentially centralized. Yes you can obviously create your own git server (I have mine), but today when people think of git they think of gitbub.
We need to make sure this doesn't happen with Nostr by catching centralizing forces as soon as we see them IMO

Will this purchase go through? I can't really send 0 sats.
What i'm more interested about is how 0 sats = 6 cents?!?
I was more commenting on the fact that using statistical token prediction models that make no real miningful distinction between data segments/user input and instructions is an idiotic idea that will blow up on them in the most hilarious of ways, and honestly, I hope it happens so that companies stop slapping AI on everything 😃
this got to hacker news somehow and now they are roasting me saying its not new or interesting. I have been programming for 26 years and have never encountered this pattern. I must be retarded https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44467607#44501697
nostr:note19ekkvgk3xe7z3cklj5s2cz0cr5yglr0qtsttfrkyt5vdz883tfaskvjxx4
hacker news has become a circle jerk of people that only love one thing: AI.
anything else is "garbage" and "everyone knows it"
how about cashu? you let the user store sats in any mint they choose, you allow them to make an in-app purchase to buy x sats which then are minted on the user's mint when you receive the payment from apple, and you store the proofs on the app
I hate google as much as the next guy, but that's just not true of android. If you run nostr:npub1235tem4hfn34edqh8hxfja9amty73998f0eagnuu4zm423s9e8ksdg0ht5 or murena any other degoogled android rom, there's nothing that could ever stop you running nostr apps on your phone.
But primarily, most importantly, I think that linux needs to make a come back on mobile devices, there have been attempts but none of them went as widespread as they should have imo
I think that if you're willing to work with something built in 12 ish hours you can test it now. It is very far from perfect, and honestly most of the code needs to be rewritten as like all hackathon projects, I focused on just building it quickly rather than building it properly 🙃
But it works
