How do you mean?

I have an extreme position here because this is the backbone of my company: "running a personal server" should require zero sysadmin or any other technical skills at all.

If you can click a button, you can have an always-on, always-connectable machine that requires no maintenance and allows you to install server software just as easily.

You are correct, there is no need for a blockhain. (Unless you want consensus + global state; but it is self-evident to me that you do NOT want global consensus on trust and reputation. Last place you'd want that!)

Is it a big pain to get a nostr.build account (?), or link? I mean, I thought it was for developers and advanced users, not goobs like me.

I wonder if the schizos go to the nostr meetups

I'd be more worried about corrupt donors trying to capture the project, bringing their own devs, astroturfers, etc. and pushing "feature creep" as hard as they can in ways designed to interfere with the original underlying functionality

Also heads up for the whole new nostr protocol v2 that will be built by me or someone like me, that might be a difficult adjustment

Feels like maybe, but i suspect there is more to come. But according to what you say, the most difficult part is over. Also you have to avoid the "curve". It is a usual situation when team projects reach a peak and then relax and the project collapses.

We've decided to just front the capital and effort and try to get it back afterward in zaps. Which is economically hopeless 😅 , but everything else is simply too slow and cumbersome, and puts us under supervision.

* Homeless will flood cities that give them free jail cells, and flood those jails, if there are any

* Maybe this ruling will only be used to target dissidents and not actually clear out homeless encampments, because probably no city can actually afford to provide free jail cells (housing) for the entire country

* There will be huge lawsuits and/or protests over cities doing weird shit to homeless people other than jail

* Jails will kill some homeless people

* There will be huge lawsuits and/or protests over at least one of these homeless people being murdered by the state

They probably increased the food supply at the same rate as the money supply for some period of time, which is impressive. Food prices are the most important thing to deal with in htperifn6

What does 0% inflation mean? Did they take money out of circulation? Have they pledged to no longer inflate money supply?

What's wrong with the fund going searching through all nostr projects on earth? They could keep them all in a spreadsheet or something. Keeping the list complete would be a great ongoing research project for an organization trying to be the central nervous system or nucleus of nostr

Obvious reasons.

someone has to do the discovery work. Either the fund does it (finds devs) or the developers do it (applies to the fund). There has to be a selection process somewhere. So either the devs can self-select or the fund can go searching through all Nostr projects on earth.

So it's about incentives. The fund isn't going to spend extra energy to ALSO give away money. Theyre already "spending" a ton. So the developers are incentivized to surface themselves up; to "spend" comparatively little (time) to make themselves known and potentially gain a lot.

The filtering and selection has to happen somewhere. "hey developer who wants free money, make yourself known to me by writing a little bit on this public form and I'll read all the submissions" is far lower friction and cheaper than "okay let me scour the whole fucking internet to find a place to lose a bunch of cash."
