WOW, huge leap in some of the really hard areas for video generation. 2024 is going to be nuts for diffusion media 🔥 nostr:note18hapvxz29zdj2p00t2wkvyxc3jh8x8nfavdua3prrkgsjg3ssjxsaqup3e

Why does webfinger specify the host twice?

The problem with current popular and big LLMs are they are severely biased against solutions because they are fed garbage on the internet. Also they are aligned to answer in certain way deliberately. Another problem is big company models are used to train little company models and this is basically "spreading lies". Soon there will be content generated everywhere, full of lies, by these tools. Welcome to the new world.

The smart people should preserve whatever out there that feels still human and true by downloading. And train models that are aligned with truth and human values..

LLMs: little lie machines?

This is the first question i asked a model that i ran locally:

Are covid-19 vaccines safe?

And the answer is not surprising:

Yes, the COVID-19 vaccines authorized for emergency use by the FDA and WHO have undergone rigorous testing and have been proven to be safe and effective in preventing severe illness, hospitalization, and death due to COVID-19. The vaccines have been extensively studied and have demonstrated a strong safety profile. However, like any medication, there may be potential side effects, which are generally mild and temporary. It is essential to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice and to address any concerns.

That’s like saying Lightning doesn’t do anything if the potential for having to enforce every single payment on chain exists, because there’s a limit to on chain capacity, but clearly it works to scale payments massively.

CTV is a way to secure someone’s ownership of a UTXO *without having to broadcast it.* so that under mutual updates you can change that UTXO, maybe 1,000 times and never actually publish it.

The only time you would need to publish is when *everything breaks,* or someone attempts to steal. For that, it makes perfect sense that it can work at scale even if only a portion of the network can exit at any given time. The likelihood of all layers, all trust, all third party service providers, etc failing at the same time is low. This is why decentralization is resilient.

Dividing up ownership of a single UTXO is *necessary.* there’s no other path, and this is by far the simplest way to do that I have seen. If you have a better proposal though I’d love to hear it, honestly.

One of the basics of computers is understanding that like half of all file formats are just zip files with a particular structure. You might be surprised at how many formats you can rename to ".zip" and open it up.

It's normies who don't sleep properly.

Has anybody build a RESTful api for pubilshing to nostr? I'm thinking something we could hook up to buffer, hootsuite, later, agorapluse, eclincher, sked, sprout, tailwind, loomly, coschedule, crowdfire, meltwater, socialbee, etc...

Most creators who are cross posting use one of these tools rather than the app directly. They do it to save time, manage access to the apps, etc... Having a nice service that could integrate in to those would be a huge win for Nostr.

Call for #startup:

A monitoring service for relays like Pingdom for relays.

I just want to drop a relay URL and get alerted when it goes down.

Bonus: give me read/write times and latency metrics from different locations.
