I believe I’ve become unhealthily addicted to #nostr in a similar way I used to be addicted to Twitter.

I mean I manage it ok, I have a timer for my Nostr apps (all social apps, but I don’t spend time on any others), but I hit my limit and “snooze it” for another 15 minutes… maybe I do it twice, basically every day.

But when I have a minute, I go straight to it to check in on my frens and what they are talking about. Why do I keep doin dis?

There are only six major emotions: anger, sadness, fear, love, joy, and surprises.

The rest is just nuances of those emotions.

this talk is nonsense. human creativity can and has only mattered to humans beings. it has no value outside of that. chat gtp just finally shows you everything that we have done is over valued

I’ve been having issues getting photos to load when drafting notes. Is this usually because of the nostr client or the relay? Or reception issue? #asknostr

Every organization that matters there days is enormous. We are not built for enormous. we need communities of 150 or less .

So what’s the Tl;dr of what’s happening in Japan?

If you look at the data from nostr.band leas than 2000 people per day send zaps to ~800 people per day.

The message of V4V doesn’t add up when you look at the data for zaps.

I don’t think its the fault of zaps per. They have been implemented in a way that mimics likes and feeds into our dopamine receptors. In addition much of Nostr resembles the UI for algorithmic driven feeds.

If zaps are going to support creative work on Nostr both the work and the zaps likely need to be represented differently in the UI.

I’ll be interviewing Vivek Ramaswamy on Monday.

Please drop any questions you’d like me to ask him in the comments.

Everything about today felt weird to me. I can’t be the only one.
