Man … money is tight again. I already upped my rates this year, but costs keep going up.
Is 75 USD/hr too cheap for web dev already?
I mean, it might be if I can't bill for enough of my time. Stuck between a rock and a hard place: provide well for my family or give a solid service for a reasonable rate.
We can hope and pray that's what will happen!
There is none. The gospels and and epistles were written during the life of Christ and during great persecution of Christians. Eucharistic processions would only become a practice after the Church became much less vulnerable.
Yep. Those hypocrites made their works public so to boast in them. I don't see how this relates to Eucharistic processions, which are fundamentally a humble undertaking, being that we boast not in our own works but in those of Christ and do so publicly.
Right, we are trying to bridge from a user-domain paradigm to a un-domained key-pair paradigm. I don't know if a third way exists and would make for a reasonable and useful bridge.
NIP-05 is really just human readable pseudonym for an npub, by definition. I don't see a way to shorten or make human readable an npub without pseudonymization, so if already pseudonymous, what system would be more intuitive?
Yes. We need both a lofty goal and a way to take steps toward it. I have few disagreements with their content, so I think we can start toward it.
Leadership, or the lack thereof. I think we would have good participation if the priests and bishops would organize it, but we have fewer priests than we need and we continue to hemorrhage members to secularism our some sort of Protestantism.
Imagine if Christians had the boldness to do such public displays of faith. I long for that day. Eucharistic processions followed by a parade thousands strong on every major feast day? Sign me up!

This was a good one. I haven't seen much from him in awhile. It's he active anywhere?
The trouble comes when they get to eat the soup from one side of the bowl before it gets mixed and diluted from the other side.
Close proximity to the printer = use new, "same value" dollars first.
I follow the New Polity guys. They have a lot of good things to say, but I feel they're just a little too idealistic and translating the goal into "what do I do tomorrow" could be helped. I also don't think they understand Bitcoin (they think it's just another crypto). I actually chatted with Jacob Imam a couple times, and I can say he's a pretty cool dude.
I believe this is downstream of the domain name paradigm. We cannot get around the fact that our current system is set up with this user@domainname.tld system, not just for email but all sorts of protocols. User access and system login came before user-to-user-communication. Email is just the one protocol of which people think first when considering the "at" symbol. My point is @ is already very multi-use and is intuitive.
I suppose NIP-05 syntax has been derived from LN addresses. I don't know if choosing an email like format has been the best idea (in both cases) because it's easily recognizable, but the goal is completely different and this can create a lot of troubles in the UX.
Why not simply change the separator and create a new and unique Nostr address?
user#domain.tld
If I see a @ linked address on a web page I expect to click it to open my email client. If I found a # linked address I know it will open my Nostr DM micro app to the user chat, or will fallback to the user profile.
In fact it can actually be a landing page pointer too; root domains can be ##domain.tld
Nostr apps that extensively use NIP-05, like the just proposed "shared login" by nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft could improve the communication and avoid a lot of confusion.
Probably we can save newcomers from silly frustrations, e.g. "why I cannot login in Coracle with my Gmail?!", and perhaps prevent some security related problems too.
Maybe it can also help to spread the protocol, becoming a neutral brand in business cards and advertising.
Make sense?
Any cons?

I feel the "at" symbol does make sense as an addressee within an address. It has multiple uses, but the fact that you're targeting someone within someplace is still true.
I really like Jimmy Akin's Mysterious World. The aid
Subjects are often on topics not related or distantly related to the Faith, and he always has a good take with the two lenses of faith and reason.
Some of my favorite have been the paranormal ones like ghost stories, which are a good mixture of real ones considered with a balance of skepticism and open mindedness, and hoaxes uncovered. (border patrol ghost is a favorite among those.) He also covers Marian apparitions, which are also usually pretty good.
Maybe not the sole killer app, but one of many killer apps. There's a lot of money in real estate, so the potential for that application is really high in particular.
Me too. All my friends who are or who have really potential to be quite wealthy are so because of real estate. It's not that I hope the industry gets "put back in its place" but an empowering of the little guy to play on the same field.
🤣 I get it. There's so much fiction in the market except when it comes to the actual borrowing of money.
