Everything I say here is said with a smile

All my spicy BTC convictions didn’t get a single surfer hand 🥺

Hopefully it’s because their fingers were stunted by the fact that they had to think about something

MIND & BRAIN

Certainty Principle: People Who Hold False Convictions Are Better at Retaining Corrected Information

Researchers have used imaging technology to spy on the brain as it corrects strongly held beliefs, shedding light on how we might learn from our mistakes.

-Scientific America

"The idea, he liked to think, was to collaborate even with your enemies-especially with your enemies-to avoid the large and costly fight of real competition."

My notation:

It works 90% of the time, but ends up in full-scale warfare 10% of the time.

Are we sure that BTC miners will continue to mine after the supply limit is reached.

Satoshi is monetizing the market makers to create the market for him. Once the market is made, he can say, "good bye" to most of the market makers. He won't need them any more.

So when the supply limit is reached, the market will be made. And there will be a huge amount of transactions (if a true market was formed) that only a few miners (potentially one) will earn fees on.

As of now, BTC fees are completely free market (please correct me if I'm wrong). There's no fee setting, which is what we typically see in these types of markets.

In typical monopolies, fees always rise.

As of now, the bigger the transaction, the bigger the fee you’ll need to pay in order to compensate for taking up space inside the block. This is wrong. This should be inverse.

Most markets get turned on their head because of the Certainty Principle of Markets.

Markets reflect certainty.

For example, most men expect growth.

When this certainty changes because an observer sees and expresses something other than growth, the first observation of uncertainty is reflected.

This uncertainty is then validated through multiple observations, which adds weighting to the uncertainty in the balance.

so if i write all my dirty thoughts about BTC on Nostr do i get like... kicked off the island or something?

I’m becoming a lightning miner guys! Wish me luck on my journey! ✨

== $0 is a red flag

how do we timestamp all interactions?

irl usually through observation testimony

bookmarking the below as useful information:

Many transmission channels are characterized by limited passbands—that is, they will pass only certain ranges of frequencies without seriously attenuating them (reducing their amplitude). Modulation methods must therefore be applied to the information signals in order to “frequency translate” the signals into the range of frequencies that are permitted by the channel.

In many instances a communications channel is shared by multiple users. In order to prevent mutual interference, each user’s information signal is modulated onto an assigned carrier of a specific frequency. When the frequency assignment and subsequent combining is done at a central point, the resulting combination is a frequency-division multiplexed signal, as is discussed in Multiplexing. Frequently there is no central combining point, and the communications channel itself acts as a distributed combine. An example of the latter situation is the broadcast radio bands (from 540 kilohertz to 600 megahertz), which permit simultaneous transmission of multiple AM radio, FM radio, and television signals without mutual interference as long as each signal is assigned to a different frequency band.

Ok my opinions smell like roses and cinnamon buns, so speak for yourself

I’m starting to think that Elon runs a platform for bots to use and not humans

Sorry, but your #Zapathon ritual is pathetic.

It reminds me a bit of the carneval of the Germans where otherwise miserable, bad-tempered people become funny and cheerful at the push of a button (or the arrival at a certain defined time period). It's a little forced and disingenuous.

People should be zapping more debate contributions that they see. And since we're all freedom-loving, somehow more conscious participants of this alternative network, we should honor and reward contributions, that don't necessarily affirm our viewpoint (cuz that's what the Tweeps over there do), but provide a valid argument and broaden our perspectives, right?

But wait, there are no widespread debates going on here! I see a lot of cult-like mantras, which are repeated until they are vomited up, hedonism and some dev stuff. Whereby the latter still represents the highest content level. This platform also needs some technical upgrading, only the fewest clients even have the possibility of quote resharing. And while we're at it, why not reintroduce a pingback feature that worked so well for weblogs? Hashtags are not really suited to keep track of a public discussion..

I really hope that these are the usual teething problems of a new platform, like the first awkward phases of Facebook (anybody remember the poke feature?) and that this currently dominating mindless conversation culture will soon be forgotten.

For #nostr to become a really serious alternative to what is currently being built up with millions of capital and a lot of brainwork, it must clear this hurdle and there must be other notes in the trends than those of the most zapped flesh merchants and a few smug sayings like "people aren't yet ready for nostr. and that's ok".

Because people are ready. Nostr and its prevailing discussion culture is not.

Well… you seem fun at parties…

I would expect this again, people constantly make mistakes.

According to Google, the ValidationExpession “^[^\s]+$” can be used
