Building the future of news on Nostr. Get a daily news digest from https://newstr.social

When I think of the amount of time and effort I've spent on personal and professional products to integrate with Twitter and Facebook I'm almost embarrassed. In a short time that (or really a long time) that has gone from being essential business to ludicrous.

Setting up a Nostr and Express web app (Part 1)

The printing press, radio and television were the tools of moderation and were only in the hands of the few. Anything that intends to put moderation back in the hands of "the few" is antithetical to the spirit of a user empowered network.

At the pace with which the Javascript world has changed over the years one would think it would be so much better than programming in any other language #javascript #programming

I'm sure engagement is low on links everywhere, Nostr, Mastodon and Twitter etc. included. But it's not fair to say "People don't click links."

If I were to guess I'd say 30% of what I read is in Social streams, 30% of what I read comes from search results and 30% of what I read comes from links in social.

Fake numbers but I read a lot from social links. That's all I'm saying.

Just got a national alert. Thought it was over #nationalalert

I've set up a node project

- Installed NDK

- Looks fine on the server side. Can interact with relays etc.

- I installed webpack and the config is pretty basic

const path = require('path');

module.exports = {

target: 'web',

mode: 'production',

entry: './src/index.js',

output: {

path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist'),

filename: 'bundle.js'

}

};

I have an entry file like this:

import NDK, { NDKNip07Signer, NDKEvent } from "@nostr-dev-kit/ndk";

- npx webpack successfully creates the bundle (I see refs to NDK in the bundle)

- In a web page I see the bundle being served successfully

- When I try to instantiate in the browser, the console reads :

Uncaught ReferenceError: NDK is not defined

I know it's my setup, not the NDK, but I don't work with JS like this often.

#nostrdev #asknostr

How about Nostr over Ham radio #nostr #nostrprotocol

Checking out Ruby nostr gem as well, though nostr-tools seems like the obv choice for this

Nostr personal hackathon today. #hacktoberfest

Columbo "Troubled Waters" with Robert Vaughn is on. I met him once. Seemed like a nice guy.

really interesting

why am I not receiving events?

Got my first Nostr event via app code
