Random stuff I like and thoughts

I probably sound like a spoiled American but I just got refused a flight to Vietnam because I didn’t have a visa

🤬

Of course we missed our flight and then the airline Cathay Pacific refused to let us fly back even if we found another flight out there

There goes our Vietnam vacation

😤

F Vietnam and Cathay Pacific airlines is my conclusion

These people that are on government money and saying these cuts are bad are not being fully truthful:

1) Anything obviously harmful will be likely brought back - nothing wrong with that

2) If it's so important then get a charity, consumers or state governments to pay for it. If it's as important as you say - this is a likely option

3) People don't watch government spending like they watch their own - a key advantage that all these various groups are taking advantage of - that alone is a good reason to be leery of funding anything with the federal budget. Should be as close to zero as possible

This stuff just seems so suspicious to me

You’re paying for a charity where you can’t even see if the homeless are fed or the kids don’t have cancer anymore

Way too much trust and way too little verify for me

#asknostr among the problems that Nostr faces, the child porn problem is a very, very, very bad problem.

A VERY bad problem.

What is the current thinking among developers about how to deal with this?

Nobody likes censorship, but the only solution I can think of (SO FAR) is running an image identification service that labels dangerous stuff like this, and then broadcasts a list of (images, notes, users?) who are scoring high on the "oh shit this is child porn" metric. Typically these systems just output a float between zero and 1, which is the score....

Is anyone working on this currently?

I have a good deal of experience of running ML services like image identification at scale, so this could be something interesting to work on for the community. (I also have a lot GPU power, and anyway, if you do it right, this actually doesn't take a ton of GPUs to do even for millions of images per day....)

It would seem straightforward to subscribe to all the nostr image uploaders, generate a score with 100 being "definite child porn" and 1 being "not child porn", and then broadcast maybe events of some kind to relays with this "opinion" about the image/media?

Maybe someone from the major clients like nostr:npub1yzvxlwp7wawed5vgefwfmugvumtp8c8t0etk3g8sky4n0ndvyxesnxrf8q or #coracle or nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg or nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 has a suggestion on how this should be done.

One way or another, this has to be done. 99.99% percent of normies, the first time they see child porn on #nostr ... if they see it once, they'll never come back.....

Is there an appropriate NIP to look at? nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 ? nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft ? nostr:npub16c0nh3dnadzqpm76uctf5hqhe2lny344zsmpm6feee9p5rdxaa9q586nvr ?

I don’t think it needs to be handled at the protocol level - more like individually

Choosing to use a business because they do great charity work is saying that they can donate to charity better than you

I find that kinda offensive

I’ll pick my own damm charities to donate to - thank you very much

Gotta say I totally agree with the freeze on all this government spending

The US is heading towards bankruptcy so should do massive spending cuts

Any one opposed to cuts I would suspect of evil intentions towards the US

I love hearing how the federal government employees will come back to work or get let go

Their complaining reminds me of little piglets wanting to keep nursing even when they’re too old

Get a real job now guys
