I just heard of Simplex yesterday or the day prior, so I haven't looked into it much at all. If I can get ahead of my work, I might look into it more.

I'd also like to start actually contributing to code.

What languages would you recommend I learn? I am pretty versed in JS-based stuff, anything else? #askNostr

My #1 priority right now is to get encrypted DM's and group chat working. nostr:nprofile1qqsyvrp9u6p0mfur9dfdru3d853tx9mdjuhkphxuxgfwmryja7zsvhqpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduqs6amnwvaz7tmwdaejumr0dsq3gamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdehhxarj9e3xwdmg2sa 's proposal is nearing completion, but it requires a solid foundation of NIP 44 cryptography and NIP 59 wrapping.

If you have opinions on either of these, please chime in! I have written a summary issue here:

https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/issues/717

My personal goal is to have NIP 44 and 59 in a final-ish state by the end of today so we can finalize NIP 24 as early as next week along with implementations in Amethyst, Snort, 0xChat, and Coracle. We'll of course wait to merge until we have worked through all feedback.

I'm also working on PRs for adding NIP-44 support to nostr:nprofile1qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0spz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3kamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu339e682mnwv4k8xct5wvhxxmmdqywhwumn8ghj7mn0wd68yttsw43zuam9d3kx7unyv4ezumn9wsqxk3rc and nos2x. If anyone out there maintains a signer application, please look into adding support sooner rather than later. It will be amazing to get everyone off of NIP 04.

I'm not trying to rush this because there's a bounty out, I'm just trying to keep the momentum we currently have built up. The bounty IMO should be shared among all early implementations and contributors. nostr:nprofile1qqs9336p4f3sctdrtft2wlqaq5upjz9azpgylhfd3dplwf005mfrr9spz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3wamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wvekhgtnhd9azucnf0gq32amnwvaz7tm9v3jkutnwdaehgu3wd3skueq5rp9j7

Maybe use Nostr to establish a multi-person channel, but use a secondary protocol to send messages more directly, like privately hosted or hidden relay services.

Encrypt messages with a shared private key, and encrypt the shared private key with each peer's public key, then transmit to each peer. Peer will encrypt/decrypt messages with the shared key. Peers may sign by own private to authenticate messages, allowing other peers to verify.

Generate new private keys upon membership shrink, or optionally upon any membership change for greater security (new peers can't read older messages).

For admin/moderation, a super key generates shared key(s).

#gm and happy Friday.

BIL and SIL just had their baby late last night, and the wife was with them. Skipping my workout so she can rest up.

I have my chilled coffee and watching the younger one.

Peaceful morning

You're also okay with gun violence if you think we should protect unborn children. It's just how the world is.

#askNostr Is someone developing #NIP 52/53? Any clients experimenting with it?

I want to live in a world...

in which the authorities are deferent to their citizenry and made of them;

one in which the governing fear the governed and continually earn trust instead of demanding blind obedience and monodirectional loyalty;

one in which freedom is a given and violations of it are not tolerated.

I do like those options. I'd drink coffee first, but I'll go for a cup of Earl Grey on occasion, especially if I want a little less caffeine.

Modem tyrannies: Too many vain words with no authority spoken by a few vain people with too much authority for their own vainglory and eventual demise.

It's just so much more efficient to outsource all that plant processing to bovine 🍖 my one stomach just can't do it as well as their four 🤙

Persuasion is an art, and it requires charisma and your genuine good will. Before dolling out orange pills, you first must win the attention of your listeners and stoke a desire for the proposed good Bitcoin offers. Then, logic will take care of the rest.

That logic:

Could it be any more obvious? The globalist political agenda is to erode traditional values, especially the sexual ones, and they use the force of international finance to coerce dissident states into their scheme.
