another lie from the father of lies, gladstein
maybe tell us also how we should be supporting stablecoins instead of bitcoin
that's what it looks like indeed
I heard Paraguayan green card is the real deal
he supported Drivechain
can you explain NWS like I am 5? nostr:npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg's explanation didnt make any sense to me
try make startups for bitcoiners and realize there aren't enough users for your stuff then sell your soul to crypto VCs
better buy bitcoin, brain is free
Do you want more administrative overhead or less?
If you want someone to "watch" pages that can be done on the NIPs repo (again, wiki software is better, but not essentially different). But this is a massive increase in overhead. The NIPs repo contributors aren't there to debate ideas (although that happens too), just to vet whether a NIP has the requisite number of implementations, and merge corrections. This is a pretty lightweight role, but still quite taxing.
If you want a permissionless wiki, then use the one that currently exists at wikifreedia. No one is stopping you. In fact, fiatjaf drafted https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1214, and to my knowledge I'm the only one so far who has published a NUD there. But this presents the opposite problem of potentially too little curation. I'm all for trying it, because forks are cool, but I'm not convinced it will be easier to navigate or more useful than the NIPs repo.
there are quite a few people ignoring the NIPs repo and making standards elsewhere and it's impossible to find them
Huge milestone: First demo of Nostr Web Services (NWS) bringing TCP to Nostr. With NWS, you can host any existing web application on Nostr without having to use DNS or even announce your public IP to the world, simply by sharing your service's npub (or nprofile).
Try it out the demo yourself. Here is a Cashu test mint running with NWS. Let's use curl to retrieve the mint's information. The request travels from your computer to the public NWS entry relay, then through nostr to the service's NWS exit relay. At the other end is a Cashu mint with HTTPS encryption.
```
curl -s -x socks5h://relay.8333.space:8882 https://nprofile1qqs8a8nk09fhrxylcd42haz8ev4cprhnk5egntvs0whafvaaxpk8plgpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuwpnxvejuumsv93k2g6k9kr/v1/info --insecure | jq
```
I can't stress this enough: THE MINT RUNS BEHIND HTTPS!
The NWS entry relay can't read your traffic. It's encrypted. We can host public entry relays that can be used by anyone.
This means we can plug the entire internet to it 🌐.
Let's plug it into Cashu for now. Nutshell wallet supports socks5 proxies (that's how it uses Tor). By setting the public entry relay as the proxy, the wallet can now connect to a mint's npub/nprofile and communicate with it via NWS.
This is going to be so freaking cool. And it's going to be a lot more useful than just for Cashu. There are still bugs and issues that need to be ironed out but the code is coming out soon. Watch this space.
I don't get the point of doing this
thank you for the 1 sat zap
having recent commits says nothing about software
software that works works, doesn't need a constant group of camels making changes and introducing bugs in it every day
oh that david! saw the name on the TGFN podcast feed but didn't know who the guest was, now I will listen
relay? caching service is not a relay, it's a proprietary api
they are on amethyst now
who is still using X? cite some names
Rachel Haywire - 'Offline is the New Online'
I've been saying this for some time. The 'touch grass' movement is only just beginning as a meme. The internet and internet users, will probably return to being a hobby for 'saddos'. Social media will return to forums etc etc
now that I read it I think she is saying the opposite: that everybody will be online and only the weirdos that were online 20 years ago will be offline
