“Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty-a beauty cold and austere ... yet sublimely pure and capable of stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show”
Bertrand Russell

Presenting... 📚 https://bookstr.xyz, a simple Goodreads alternative built on Nostr!
This is an extremely basic prototype that only barely works (user beware!). However, I think it highlights what is amazing about building on Nostr. I was inspired by this post, and then able to build a client in 3 days almost entirely with AI.
The opportunity to bridge social behavior with "other stuff" (in this case, books via Open Library API) is huge. This concept could work for any type of content, not just books. Music, Movies and TV, games, etc. — all on Nostr.
The process of building on Nostr with AI also demonstrated a few gaps in the ecosystem where AI-ready tools were missing or failing, so there is definitely opportunity to grow there.
Shout out nostr:nprofile1qydhwumn8ghj76r9de5x7atnv5h8xmmrd9skctmjv4kxz7gqyqzxrl97e3xrxazrnyeddw83zf5uekmue9e667js4cmzmvf4536d6qvllke who had many of these ideas first, helped me with lots of the Nostr event specifics, and solved a couple bugs!
Overall, I'm extremely impressed by what can be done with AI on Nostr and all the doors this will open! I'm excited to keep working on this. #bookstr #GrowNostr #AI #Nostr
So cool :) awesome work
That’s awesome Jeff. You are following your passion.
Oh wow. Phil, the festival looks fantastic
Nostr is the something new

Added value, incumbents and being a market entrant, very cool exploration and applying it to nostr is interesting :)
Value group gets when everyone cooperates minus value group gets when everyone except for i cooperates is true value.
Yeah, x being a variable, oh the algebra headache for this analysis - just use a bird symbol or T in the equation.

Competing is Nash equilibrium, and with Bertrand theory gets you both in the end to the same margin from undercutting each other. Solving the paradox by being different changes game entirely and with a low mc, yeah you got a winner;)
Oh wow. They are beautiful:)

Over about four days she steadily got her conscious mind back. Lots of eye contact, happy tail, fully interacting with us, regained bladder control (👀), holding toys in her mouth, and just being her loving, joyous self again.

I was desperately hoping for this. When she was in mindless robot dog mode, it was horrible to think that the real Kuma might be lost to us forever.
It's just a momentary reprieve but at least we have her truly back for at least a little while. Getting the chance to really appreciate her is such a gift. Every moment beyond this point is a bonus win.
Her very positive response to the prednisone has given the neurologist and radiation therapist enough optimism that we all agree it makes sense to go ahead with radiation therapy.
A directed beam zaps the tumor and hopefully kills a big chunk of it to buy her more time. Successful treatment yields prognosis estimates from 6-18mo to 18-24mo (depends on the tumor type, which we don't actually know).
But it can't get all of the tumor so eventually it re-establishes itself.
It's NOT a cure but getting that much extra time with her would be the best possible outcome given the bad cards we've been dealt.
Next steps: Another expensive MRI+CT scan next week to plan for the even more expensive radiation therapy (so far her pet insurance is coming through for us. 🤞). Then it's 10 anesthesia+radiation zap sessions over 2.5wks.
Success obv isn't guaranteed. We'll have a sense if it was effective about 8wks later. But unfortunately many dogs succumb to their tumors before that point is reached; time just runs out on them. But we're happy to give her that fighting chance.
❤️❤️ Also: ❤️❤️ The pics here all feature gifts she received as part of a cancer care box from LiveLikeRoo.org - the stuffed animals, the blanket, the treats, a ball, a gift certificate, and a (😢) bucket list of fun activity suggestions.
Incredible, wonderful organization that's dedicated to helping families whose pets have cancer. Very niche and, yes, there are certainly bigger tragedies out there, but their warmth right now is an incredible boon.
They're also facilitating some local experiences for us (doggy photo shoot; an indoor pool just for dogs! etc).
I'll be sharing more about them in the future.

:) this is just so awesome Keith. Kuma has that energy back and that is the best news ❤️ the teddy bear 🧸, too cute!
My managerial economics final exam is on Wednesday and it will be hand written because typing algebra and calculus is horrendous for the professor. There is also a warning- no use of perplexity. To be honest, I have no idea what it is. It will just be me and my scientific calculator.
