Nostr Web Client

All types welcome here! Don’t forget that unlike other platforms, it’s up to you to use the mute button liberally and try to find clients that help you curate a strong social graph

Haha, in the process of fixing this I appear to have broken it further.

Ahh bummer! Well let me know when you’re ready to test and I’ll zap you

Albyhub just quietly ticking away in the background streaming me fractions of a cent for free like it's no thing.

I haven’t been able to zap you from my mobile clients at this address… have you still been getting zaps recently?

I had ChatGPT read the transcript from my last episode of Bitcoin And. I asked it to write a news letter of no more that 250 words that summarizes that content.

I'm not at all convinced that this is something people should release but it's coming. What say you? Does this have any amount of utility?

Fidelity Data Breach: Another Security Setback

Fidelity Investments recently experienced a significant data breach, exposing the personal information of 77,000 customers. Despite assurances from the company, concerns remain about the industry's standard response of offering credit monitoring services. Many believe this does little to address the larger issue of privacy and security. The breach highlights ongoing problems with Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations, which require users to provide sensitive information that is often vulnerable to such attacks. The push to reconsider and reform KYC practices continues to gain momentum.

Flawed Bitcoin Research Leads to Harmful Policies

Misinformation in academic research has long distorted public understanding of Bitcoin. A notable example is an academic paper that inaccurately reported Bitcoin's environmental impact due to a unit error in its emissions chart. Unfortunately, this erroneous data continues to be cited in policy discussions, driving harmful regulations that affect Bitcoin mining and financial privacy. There is growing concern over the role of flawed research in shaping policy, with calls for greater accountability and corrections to ensure accurate representation of Bitcoin’s true impact.

MicroStrategy’s Billion-Dollar Bitcoin Bank Vision

MicroStrategy, led by Michael Saylor, is making bold moves to transform itself into the world’s leading Bitcoin bank. By leveraging Bitcoin as a primary asset, the company aims to achieve a trillion-dollar valuation. With over 252,000 BTC in its holdings, MicroStrategy’s strategy is positioning the company as a major player in the emerging Bitcoin capital markets. This forward-thinking approach could fundamentally reshape the financial industry, reinforcing Bitcoin’s status as a cornerstone asset.

FBI’s Crypto Entrapment: A Cause for Concern?

In a surprising development, the FBI created an Ethereum-based token to catch scammers, profiting from the operation before disabling the token’s trading. While the investigation was successful, concerns have been raised about the ethical implications of this approach. The move has sparked discussions about the potential for law enforcement to engage in similar operations within the cryptocurrency space and has led to questions about transparency and accountability in such cases.

Bitcoin Mining & Conference Updates

At the Bitcoin Amsterdam 2024 conference, the latest advancements in Bitcoin mining were showcased, including Bitmain’s new Antminer series. In other developments, Bitcoin transaction fees have seen a significant rise, signaling increased retail demand for the cryptocurrency. This trend is viewed as a positive indicator of organic growth in the market, with more individuals participating in Bitcoin transactions.

My biggest gripe with these AI summaries is often the lack of sources. I like that you base the pod with a news source for each section. Techmeme ridehome is another favorite of mine that has a similar flow

I'll have to read this one multiple times before I figure out what may have been glossed over.

Thanks again.

No problem. The short version is really just 3 steps:

1. Download VS Code

2. Install Continue plug-in

3. Open your obsidian vault

Most of the article is around the configuration of the Continue plug-in and how you might use it

Replying to

Yes! Thank you.

I’ll read through it after I get out of Spirit Halloween.

Happy birthday, Marc-André Leclerc. One of the greatest solo alpinists ever. "The Alpinist" is a must-watch. Marc-André exemplifies facing fear head-on and living life full-on. A true legend following his bliss. 💜

"Marc-André Leclerc climbs alone, far from the limelight. On remote alpine faces, the free-spirited 23-year-old Canadian makes some of the boldest solo ascents in history. Yet, he draws scant attention.

With no cameras, no rope, and no margin for error, Leclerc's approach is the essence of solo adventure. Nomadic and publicity shy, he doesn’t own a phone or car, and is reluctant to let a film crew in on his pure vision of climbing.

Veteran filmmaker Peter Mortimer (THE DAWN WALL) sets out to make a film about Leclerc but struggles to keep up with his elusive subject. Then, Leclerc embarks on a historic adventure in Patagonia that will redefine what is possible in solo climbing."

stacker news is a solid one for long posts. The engagement is quite good, a very active community

Interesting. I didn’t know they had login with nostr enabled… but the posts aren’t actually nostr long-form events are they?

Damn it! For some reason I can't see it. Highlighter just gives me a blank screen.

Hmmm… I just rebroadcast it from a few different clients. I haven’t logged into highlighter in months!

Honestly highlighter seems to be the only client having issues. Doesn’t recognize my relays correctly either 🤷‍♂️

Mate this is awesome. I just got onto Obsidian, I had already been using Continue dev in VSCode. I hadn't thought about combining the two.

Thanks! I was pretty excited when that clicked for me. Coincidentally saw someone on the obsidian subreddit yesterday saying that they use their vault in CursorAI in a similar way

My favourite for writing by far was Obsidian writer with Nostr plugin. Highlighter was second. For reading Yakihonne was pretty good.

I still haven’t gotten the nostr integration set-up. I need to try that one. I used habla.news this time as I always have, but the formatting on Yakihonne is cleaner for sharing articles. The Nostur articles tab is nice for browsing too

What’s the go-to client for long-form these days?? #asknostr
