Please don't. 😱😂

Original sources in articles, not wikis, please.

That's what Wikipedia says 🧐

Yo nostr:npub1vdaz78d96t7pjakpfmqqlr4wgq26l6vmkf25782n05qgdgtfmk8s297rjz the nostr wikis are getting the Bible now so they need the Quran too. You should think about creating the main page for it, or if you tell me what you'd want to say I'll use it and make one myself

Pretty cool but I can't find any sign of it being handed down from ancient Sanskrit, just a bunch of people repeating it

The wiki link would have to follow the Biblical standard notation, for that to help.

People who really care about Biblical/Quran/etc. content are fastidious about versioning and trusted sources.

I mean like, for Moses for example you could just add square brackets to his name and have it link to an article about him. And for old timey terms people need explained.

When there are entries with page names in biblical standard notation, that will of course be useful on another level

Got better things to do than expect that link to have useful information, sorry. If you have an explanation, you're free to explain it.

And if you can't explain it, I won't believe you're lying, I will just continue to operate on the assumption that you could be. If that upsets you, you basically just need to chill.

I won't be linking to any original sources in wiki pages, as I don't want to encourage people to edit or troll the content of sources. A source is simply a source, and should be shelf-stable. I don't need 15 variations of the same verse from the same version. They should all be the same, and then there's no point in wikifying them.

I'm going to put original texts into articles and create books out of the articles, and then link to the books or the articles.

But you can do it however you like. 🤷‍♀️

I plan to leave my kjv thing unfinished for a while btw because there are a lot of Christians out there and maybe it being half finished on the wiki will inspire someone to start using the wiki for the first time to finish it. Onboarding with the power of god

Also consider the benefit of being able to just add double square brackets to terms to link to the wiki pages for them for a wiki version of the bible

An uncensored, decentralized wiki will eventually mirror all the text content in circulation.

As for me, having my fingerprint on it might help Christians see I don't hate them if I ever get infamous for getting some number of people to switch to a UNIX epoch calendar or something

You can't revert without screwing over all the users who just gave away products/services for fake Bitcoin that would go poof. That happens to your blockchain even if it's transparent anyway.

Bitcoin is verifiable with "napkin math" but we both know you are never going to do that for billions of transactions.

You simply run a node like any Monero users would (If you are the tiny fraction that even runs a node) and "blindly trust"

For that "advantage" that almost no one takes advantage of (no pun intended) you lose fungibility, privacy, targeted-censorship resistance, etc. Cool.

Here you go. Should take all of five minutes for you to understand what pedersen commitments are and the math behind them. Can't dumb it down more than this and we're not going to spoonfeed you just because you're too lazy to learn high school level math.

You have no clue what you are talking about.

Everything Monero uses is based on proven and understood math and crypto from the 80s it's about as old as Bitcoins tech. Which funny enough you probably don't understand so are trusting too.

I've only created the index pages so far so it's not impossible for me to change, just not sure

Continued with book of Genesis so far, don't see why it wouldn't be compatible with whatever you're trying to do 🤙

nostr:npub1wamvxt2tr50ghu4fdw47ksadnt0p277nv0vfhplmv0n0z3243zyq26u3l2 we need the wiki page structure to match up to the image structure, so that people can click on the item and jump to the appropriate page, where they'll find a synopsis and links to the various translations (including your KJV).

E.g., we'd need an "new testament" page, a "gospels" page, a "Mark" page, and the various translations of Mark listed at the bottom of that one.

I don't see how compatibility with the image thing is supposed to be represented right now

Let me know what you're saying to change about the page structure 🤔 unless the way I've got it set up now is ok

Replying to

Sorry, I was working on it without seeing these notifications. My current version has new testament and old testament indexes and books at numbered entries like kjv-book-01 so someone can just keep typing the next number to get the next book. Is this advantage incompatible with your structure / not worth it?

Howdy nostr ! I'm such a newb when it comes to digital currency.

Is there an easy to follow guide on how to use crypto with nostr? Starting from how to set it up by using a wallet, securing it and then using it with nostr. Also a beginner guide as to the various networks and currencies. I mean very basic stuff. Its very overwhelming for us the Un-initiated!

Helping my mom make a new account with Primal lately was pretty easy, including lightning setup, but that's a very centralized lightning setup that asked for contact info

We also wouldn't have Crusades, Inquisitions, Witch Trials, apocalyptic thinking and unnecessary in-group/outgroup hostility along imaginary lines...

The Air Conditioner might actually offset all that though. AC is my favorite technology.

Apocalyptic thinking is science

This is just incorrect.

ECDSA was not standardized until 2005.

Relying on ECDSA without question but being suspicious of Pedersen committments is weird and arbitrary.

I have zero logical room for doubt that if the cryptography in Bitcoin can be broken by human efforts, it will be. I'd bet the network could survive by freezing and reverting to a previous block and continuing under an updated version of the protocol with different cryptographic standards.

In the mean time, Bitcoin supply is verifiable. A layman can access overwhelming proof that Bitcoin's available on-chain supply is what it's supposed to be, instead of relying on blind hope that the experts know what they're doing.

I don't know why you're refusing to recognize this.

If Monero's supply is perfectly verifiable to the experts out there, I am still waiting for an understandable explanation of how, and so are many other Monero users.

Replying to

Zero knowledge proofs in the context of cryptocurrency have been much less tested than the cryptographic signatures and other complex components of Bitcoin. I don't know why I keep having to explain this in different words here. Both Bitcoin and Monero have complex components that most users can't be expected to understand directly, but with Bitcoin those components were broken and fixed in world war 2 and with Monero those components are being tested for the first time.
