NEWS: After sustained attacks from House Republicans, the Stanford Internet Observatory is being dismantled. A huge blow to academic freedom and our ability to understand platforms and influence operations https://www.platformer.news/stanford-internet-observatory-shutdown-stamos-diresta-sio/
Lol
Pro tip for my fellow bitcoiners: instead of refusing to fill out tax forms, you can write random bullshit on tax forms whenever you're bored and save it all for tax season to mail to the IRS
I don't think this should be made before there's a more functional prototype of Highlighter
And even if you got rid of the Highlighter part, a more functional prototype of nostr in general. Like, get it to where servers can actually handle demand and we don't contradict our own "no censorship" ethos just to limit server load on relays 🫥
If I was a nostr dev I wouldn't be buying more than $40 worth of the stuff in that display without making sure the 3 apps being showcased actually work first... some of you guys are suffering from capitalist brain or something 🤔
How the fck are you doing that little face at the end? It seems to be working with the same functionality as an emoji because I'm seeing it on nostr and you seem to be on mastodon and there's no way mastodon and nostr apps share some special Discord emoticon functionality. I'm flabbergasted
What is nostr:npub15xd2mmjnh3caykh77djsv73e0zkrp42jp5mwerx8f4m6su40wdvss7t3l3 ?
It's hard to say.
It's a new kind of social app, that's part NomadList, part Meetup, part Instagram, Google Places and Trip Advisor.
Some might say "this is not a good thing" bc people don't know how to categorise it, which is a fair criticism, but I'd argue, there was also no way to really describe Facebook or Instagram when they first came onto the scene.
Building something NEW requires that you discover what you are along the way. Especially if you're trying to fundamentally transform an industry. If you just want to build another widget or app - sure - it helps to solve a very narrow problem, and position it in a way that's very easy to relate back to something that exists.
But...if your aim is to do something both new, and transformative, you have to push boundaries and build things in a way that makes more intuitive sense, than logical sense.
That being said, it's got to be done in stages, with each stage delivering some form of very clear & precise value.
This week, we'll roll out the first version of Satlantis at nostr:npub167n5w6cj2wseqtmk26zllc7n28uv9c4vw28k2kht206vnghe5a7stgzu3r which is basically a "City Home Page" derived from social content on Nostr.
Anyone can follow a city, post content about anything in a city, search for & join events, find people in that city, connect with them directly, learn about a city (scores, stats, gallery) and see a dynamic feed with content people are posting on OTHER Nostr apps (if they hashtag the city).
In the coming weeks and months, we'll be rolling out rich user profiles, a feature rich merchant map with some really cool review & content features, and much more.
Stay tuned.
I assume you got the funding from being a deep state Manchurian project, since localization + decentralization is a double-dangerous combo for the military industrial complex
Still excited to check it out 🙏
Friday night when I return to the Boxing ring in London England I will be promoting #Nostr on my fight clothes!
You can watch the fight live and free with the Triller TV app.

Is this a paid sponsorship by some nostr fund or are you just that cool?
I'll keep rooting for you in your fights now 🙏
I think it's most satisfying to have some pragmatic work but with enough free time to be creative.
The problem isn't everyone being cleaners, delivery drivers, cashiers, etc. it's everyone being so overworked spending so many hours on repetitive tasks the brain can't take it.
Look at Bo Burnham, he was severely depressed for years about being a successful artist while people like you work hard jobs to support his lifestyle.
Is stats.nostr.band just incredibly broken or what? It shows no spike in activity around the time fiatjaf was doxxed, basically just sideways charts with insane random spikes. Some of them also seem broken so their starting values are randomly way higher than they're supposed to be.
Unmuting you because this is an adorable way to be wrong
It's a fixed amount of inflation unlike USD or Euro
The inflation subsidizes transaction fees to keep it usable for everyday purposes (network still struggling with this)
But most importantly the currency is backed by a picture of a dog on every coin
Not sure I'm understanding the context, what do you mean?
This is why the gods blessed us with doggie coin
Everyone in the US pays since most of the taxation now is in the form of inflation
