Thinking of testing nym badge on women’s panel today, to see if it could do a good job at protecting interviewees who may be activists or needing extra privacy protection.

Ingenious as well as beautiful! Kudos to the designer 🙏🏼 Hopefully, there will be a way to get one for non-participants, too, someday.

I'll be going up on the workshop stage at #Nostrica at 11:00am Costa Rica time to talk about Nostr and UX design. I'll talk about:

- How I think about a designer's role in open source

- Lessons learned from the Bitcoin Design Community

- UX issues facing Nostr

- And let's do some jamming in Figma while we're at it

UX/UI design is an essential part of #nostr clients’ design. If you’ve got any design questions, this is a good time to ask them. #[1] coming up next in Workshop #[2]

Thank you! It was actually #[9] leading the non-devs workshop but I led the translations discussion breakout group.

elidy 2y ago

Thank you for correcting Terry. 🤙Apologies #[9]

Thank you to both of you for bringing your knowledge of those topics to nostrica.

What was the strongest earthquake #[0] yesterday (figuratively)?

What made your day?

Perhaps…

#[1] speaking on the importance of decentralization and how technology has progressed over time to make it possible.

#[2] #[3] #[4] speaking on sustaining #nostr development while still making it accessible to those who may need it most

#[6] on discovering a need in the #nostr ecosystem, and taking the leap to BUIDL it and face the challenges that come with it

#[8] on ways to contribute for non-devs and on the importance of translation in a global protocol

#[9] on KYC-free bitcoin with mining 101

…so many talks, so much hope for the future

So many exciting things on the horizon. I will keep my eye out :)

And in case you haven’t seen this, it’s a nostr marketplace that looks promising: https://github.com/lnbits/nostrmarket

Wow this is really cool. Fantastic work!

I would for sure purchase something like this to wear everyday 👀👀

elidy 2y ago

Thank you. Looking into possibilities. Want it to be a #bitcoin shop & in the future, with marketplace ecosystem development progress, a #nostr shop.

At #nostr, people care about you for who you are on the inside

Posted a pic of me from yesterday on here and on bird app.

Nothing but love and memes here.

Lots of hateful comments about my body over there.

I feel safe on Nostr.

Those nym lanyards for Nostrica are so gorgeous <3! #[0], you are an artist! love your work

Story on nym badges:

When worn, they will protect you from the video stream, blurring your face, because of their unique color combination. (works most of the time)

Thanks to AV team.

Hence, the design was inspired by an evil eye amulet 🧿

The lanyard carries a design inspired in hardware, relays, and human connection.

🙏 Thank you Marce

I have an unfinished book manuscript, I started writing in 2020. I'm actually quite happy with what's there. It's called "A World Worth Living In". It is my attempt to capture the constitution of the principles I think lead towards what you might call the "good life". It's a deeply philosophical book, and it tries to synthesize what I see as the best principles for thinking about the present, and how I think we could move towards the future.

I keep opening up Scrivener, and can't get past a writer's block. I think what's really happened is some pretty important assumptions I went into writing it, have shifted under my feet. In particular, a pretty deep re-evaluation of how I think about the problems and opportunity of technology.

That said, I've come to a conclusion. I think I'm going to try and repurpose some select portions of the manuscript I still think represent my current thoughts into some Medium posts in the coming months.

Also, I want to start a new manuscript, that tried to build my case for bitcoin. Why I think it's important. Where I think it's going. Where I think it's not going. And how it interfaces with political and cultural challenges. I speak to a lot of people who constantly tell me that they are glad I'm advancing the perspectives I am, and that I represent a thread of thought in bitcoin that has a decent amount of adherents, but there's really no corpus to capture what the full argument is. There is plenty of such sources of this from an anarchist and libertarian perspective. I want to give a shot at creating an argument that treads a lot closer to the classical liberal tradition.

I really feel like I need a new Sunday hobby.

Could you turn it into an « open » book? Rewriting or annotating it based on your perspective at different times in your life would seem natural - and with that title, it sounds like it could always be a WIP. A meaningful one.
