What do you mean? npubs are bech32 encoded representations of public keys and you sign serialized Nostr events with your secret key. Others can verify that a note is signed by you because the signature matches your public key.

Anything you post as a kind1 is signed by your npub. Including other public keys.

Have a blessed Sunday.

Just to clarify to any spooks reading alongs: I'm not in favor of eliminating founders :-)

Fundamentally we should not rely on "founders with power to push back". Consider what happens when they fail at doing so. Or just don't feel like pushing back. nostr:note1faymrczpf475gr96fxwazspk9h0us9dkfjejvn554ytrwl43lp4q5qg07m

Australians are tough bastards.

My great uncle survived war, being struck by lightning, blown up by a gas heater, bitten by Tiger Snakes multiple times, two boat sinkings, bitten by a Redback Spider, to name a few.

My brother has survived being bitten by a Tiger Snake, stung by a Stingray, electrocuted, several car crashes.

I'm not helping, am I? 😂

85% of Australians huddle in five safe giant cities, watered by enormous engineering works, so we can pretend we're in Europe.

Those pyromaniac trees still kill people every year, despite billions spent combating them.

Aww they're harmless.

Big spiders are smart, they don't pick fights they won't win.

Little, stupid, highly venomous Redbacks and Funnelwebs will, unfortunately.

But really, worry less about spiders and more about our snakes.

And less about our snakes and more about our plants. They have so many ways to kill you! In hot and lightning-prone conditions, Eucalypts start emitting tiny droplets of natural napalm, covering everything with haze and hoping for a lightning strike so that you burn to death and their roots can eat the phosphorus in your bones.

You seem to think I'm arguing against the merit of the thing and in favor of another when I'm not. I'm simply pointing out that people don't tend to just immediately hop onto a brand new thing (before it's even available in this case) and that such a reality isn't a negative sign against the new thing. My comment applies to any brand new tech, regardless of the merit over alternatives or promises it makes.

You can self host GitLab. But that is a minor point.

I'm only speculating on why people may not just start using it right away. I certainly do see the benefit of it existing. But it seems that it isn't even released yet, so anything I said is moot until it can actually be widely used and feedback comes in. It is cool that you can push to both, but is that the same thing as fully using both in tandum without choosing one or the other as the primary? That sounds like a backup, but not really an ability to actually utilize both simultaneously. I just don't think it's going to catch on broadly for years and don't really see that as a problem with it as a concept. I suspect it will be used by a lot of smaller niche projects early on though. I will certainly be trying it out. But for really big projects? I just wouldn't take their silence as a negative sign necessarily. It can take years for bigger machines to seriously consider a new tech (See Bitcoin and even Nostr in general).

I'm not trying to be a dick, but there are a lot of new things in tech all the time and it would be a nightmare for serious codebases to just move to something as immature as Nost or whatever any time people got excited about something new. It's a pain in the ass for me to use Nostr most days just to fuck around on social media. I can't imagine trying to move an entire project for no major benefit with fingers crossed that it's going to be reliable for me, especially if I'm not the only one accessing a repo. Just my two sats. Give it 3-5 years and people will move if it has merit. GitHub and GitLab are quite mature and work very well.

I suspect so few people are talking about it for some of the same reasons. It just isn't compelling enough yet.

It’ll have to meet all the requirements, whatever those were

Also, wasn’t there a fat bounty for this?

We have GitHub over nostr now but it’s not talked about daily??

Wild.

What am I missing?
