The constitution does not allow you to take rights, it grants them. It works because it's widely accepted but it's not a force of nature
Agree with the latter, finding order and meaning is not a social construct
My left hemisphere found this theorem so take it with a grain of salt
I would push back against that, there are things we do control and attempt to control which give us meaning and made humanity move forward in the process.
Life is full of suffering, I like Nietzche's idea of using that as substrate for creating and finding meaning, instead of succumbing to weakness.
I do agree with you that a lot of times we need to surrender, accept and find peace and beauty.
"God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."
The left hemisphere of the brain is like a shitty mathematician.
It finds interesting abstractions and then comes up with theorems that are full of blindspots and tries to apply them to everything
It's wonderful to strive to bring order and beauty to this world.
But you will never win to nature and its entropy... most things you need to accept.
Trying to control the world outside of your circle of influence is an idea socialists love.
Hayek called it, the fatal conceit
Thoughts on the new AI tech from Google?
Looks pretty impressive and pretty dystopian too
I'm becoming convinced that won't happen, not in the first minute in any case
Most people will come to nostr for some concrete reason, not because someone told them nostr is cool so they want to browse what to use.
Once they understand the nature of nostr, know what the nsec is and so on, they are ready to explore what else is interesting - there is where the store appears
If there's a library for a reply section then yes I can do that in my niche app
You are running an old version, I see "zap.store" which no longer exists.
Zapstore it's called now. Please read the profile of nostr:nprofile1qqs83nn04fezvsu89p8xg7axjwye2u67errat3dx2um725fs7qnrqlgzqtdq0 and re-download the app. You can remove the app you have installed now.
Can't disagree with quality, but that's not the point...
Take iOS and Android, both high-ish quality platforms yet two distinct UX cultures, migrating between them takes effort to adjust.
In nostr multiple paradigms could emerge, I love what nostr:nprofile1qqs2js6wu9j76qdjs6lvlsnhrmchqhf4xlg9rvu89zyf3nqq6hygt0spz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnw3ezucnpdejz7qg4waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t09uygje4n is proposing (very likely be used by Zapstore) but other designers will do other type of high quality nostr design. Some may just adapt to OS guidelines
Who knows what will come out, I would guess 3 or 4 main design paradigms, as I mentioned mentally "grouping" apps with Niel's UX will be natural.
We can only expect potential agreement on this while nostr is this small
Found your note scrolling, currently having a brainwashing microdose with your idea.
Thoroughly enjoyed your conversation with yourself on the pod, great insights and looking forward to all the community stuff you're building
Communities/chats we'll see great stuff very soon.
I'm slowly secretely working on one of the things you mentioned 😉
Needless to say Amethyst is truly great, so its a high bar
By handful I mean just a few. I don't know what handful means probably 😅
I read culture as monoculture.
Maybe a middle ground? Where we'll see emerge a handul of UI patterns which will be followed by most apps
What kind of apps were you expecting, examples?
Yes, there is a cost to that.
I heard discussion about "unified branding" as a plus for onboarding, makes sense.
But at some point users will have to pay the switching price, I don't see how to normalize UI on a decentralized protocol
If you read the PR I was told that the NIP wouldn't be merged until it needed to be interoperable.
