This is awesome. Great addition to your already epic content catalog. Can’t wait to listen.

It’s called NIP-05 verification. Here’s a quick walkthrough and list of registrars you can get verified from: https://nostr.how/en/guides/get-verified

Just 3 or 4 days ago at Riga we were all talking about how quiet and early it was. Didn’t expect the suddenly to kick off so soon.

I didn’t stay for BHB, but can confirm the Nostriga organizers killed it. Amazing work by the Nostr world team. Y’all deserve all the props and zaps.

completely agree. in terms of numbers, apparently it was only 342 attendees, but felt like at least 1,000. in any case, given the people that showed up and the content of the presentations we saw, the legend-to-normie ratio was the highest of any conference I've ever attended.

I got covid at nostriga. Next year I hope they give out extra boosters and masks, cuz flying home with this shit sucks. Following this hardship, I am going to propose a new NIP to include Covid 19 disinformation warnings on all potentially harmful / misinformation-spreading kind 1 events published on NOSTR. It’s the only way we can all stay safe from ourselves fam.

this experience is something of a rite of passage for many bitcoiners. just continue to engage anyone who expresses genuine interest. Don't expect to change anyone's mind, but do speak with conviction - in a couple years, they may remember the conversation and your conviction despite the animosity and social rejection, and they will quietly realize you were right the whole time.

I came to the exact same realization recently. I don't think the balkanization effect that is happening can be undone. My family is making arrangements to relocate from CA as soon as possible. Either way the election swings, the draconian measures will double-down.

Americans should be paying very close attention to what's happening in Venezuela right now, and not dismiss it as something that could never happen here. These people all thought the same thing several years ago.

2024-07-29 03:07:12

Just to offer a couple points of perspective for those who feel disappointed about the clear lack of preparation or depth demonstrated in Trump's Bitcoin 2024 speech:
1. It would have been a big deal just for him to show up at the conference for a photo op, let alone deliver a keynote speech. Just 3 years ago, all our minds were blown that we had a former congressman, a couple mayors, and the president of El Salvador engage the bitcoin community. People need to zoom out and appreciate the level of acceleration that is occurring.
2. I would encourage folks to just listen to a few minutes of ANY Trump speech on any topic or industry. When he talks to the auto industry workers, do we think he's doing his homework and saying anything super insightful, well-informed, or thought-out, which showcases his nuanced understanding of their issues?
The Nashville speech was just Trump doing his usual thing, the usual way. What matters is that he was there, and he and his people are engaged with us. It really is a big deal, and is not the let-down you think it is.

His team almost definitely did, but Trump is notorious for being difficult to coach or prep with talking points, and is known for discarding 80%+ of his pre-written speeches and opting to go off the cuff instead.
There is a guy named Mike Benz who used to be a speechwriter for trump (I believe he actually spoke at the conference this year himself) who has recounted stories of occasions when Trump would actually communicate positions that were at times directly antithetical to the positions articulated in the speeches he wrote.
Ironically, one of the issues he was supposed to address in a pre-written speech was to expose and condemn Big Tech for partnering with NGOs and intelligence agencies to impose widespread censorship programs, but instead Trump winged the entire speech, and gave high praise to the tech industry saying "MAGA stands for Microsoft, Apple, Google, and Amazon". This ultimately was weaponized against him and his voter base, and became a major determining factor in shaping the outcome of the 2020 election.

NOSTR -> echo chamber of optimism.
Everything else -> echo chamber of outrage.
Fascinating what liberty does to a network.

Since it is essentially consensus based, truth at times can seem to be a bit of a moving target once examine your subject closely enough over a long enough time horizon. Perhaps instead of trying to determine whether some information meets the criteria of being objectively true, you can assess the information based on its value - i.e. is this information useful? Can society make productive use of this information to coordinate and make better decisions? If yes, it can work its way into consensus and earn the time-tested status of truth.

OpenAI has published a mass censorship and surveillance manifesto, proposing a new compliance-based infrastructure that would require all GPUs, including the ones running on your own laptops, to be authorized for training AI models, and to produce digital signatures when producing model weights that would map back to a central db of government-approved chips. This is a beyond terrible idea. When they are telling us exactly who they are, we should listen.

FDR’s presidency marked the crossing of the rubicon moment where the American republic fell, and the American empire began. He was the worst president we have ever had. We owe a much deeper critical reflection to his legacy than we are taught to give it.
