Nostr as a whole is for me is a bit of a ded end when it comes to creating derived names... besides nostril and nostrich nothing much comes up easily. But I like that, an added test of creativity and challenge to find new names that stick.

Still in CR 🇨🇷 ; amazing place, so much opportunity but also a lot of bad shit. The air here is worse than in amsterdam... so much pollution. For some reason my phone refused to connect to wifi or mobile network so it's been pretty chillaxed offline time for the past week or two. Now in the bus away from SJ and suddenly my phone goes online again. Did I miss anything?

the question is: how to build it. Slapping nips against it is not going to work. I know how to do it tho. It's very difficult and requires a new innovation in mathematics and computer science.

yup decades of step by step nudging societies led towards majority accepting this (or rather unaware, too occupied to "care", tempted with digital dopamine, convenience, etc)
it's been slippery for a while and the slope seems to be accelerating downwards.

weirdly you cannot really, because it's not wasted, it is a byproduct of the (high entropy) energy used to mine. The heat is low entropy and cannot be used further.. same idea as the earth, we take in sunlight (high entropy radiation) and emit low entropy radiation (heat) back into space. we cannot do work with that heat anymore, work was already done that resulted in this heat. Of course you could pump *cold* water around and try to heat it into steam or something and drive a steam engine, but the cold water now functions as a low entropy source. with diminishing returns... otherwise we would be able to create perpetual motion machines

I would say the protocol is rather "social apps" specific and not specifically designed to extend well, it will take a while for the sprawl of NIPs settle, already the protocol is much more complicated that the initial design... curious to see how this plays out in the next decade. I'm guessing we'll see another nostr like protocol better suited for non twitter/RSS like apps, probably using the same compatible cryptography, so you can use your profile there as well.

This already happens at a basic level: just trying out different clients with the same "account" gives view on the same information. I use different clients for different vibes... Very nice

Guess I need to try alby, don't get it yet; do you mean ordinal = identity?
Because I am working on a global name register, (like many others probably), rn experimenting with ordinal like approach but dust limits make it mode complicated than it needs to be. So ownership of ordinal containing UTXO would amount to owning a particular name. For my usecase actually it's better to use a different chain better suited for this (Alephium). Because it does seem very cheap to bloat the chain this way...

even a simple client that listens to bunch of relays for an encrypted DM to special control pk would work... just pump the decrypted DM contents straight to a bash script running as root hehe. This is an useful idea! thnx

Big fan, also Rich is amazing person.
But not a fan of null pointers. So rarely use it these days. Tried the "Uncle Bob" Nostr client and it crashed woth a NPE ofcoz haha 😂
Whats the build and IDE tooling situation these days? When I used it a lot there were constantly new alternatives introduced. (I was on emacs)

2023-02-01 04:54:07 UTC

Implementing/adopting the Sphinx packet format and some mixnet type functionality seems doable.
(based on DM+delegation)
Keep set of trusted npubs and construct random (mix) DM based route. Each client learn (prev,next) hop, but messages between clients cannot be correlated.
Decoy traffic would need to be generated if few clients use this but event without decoys it would be interesting.
Any thoughts on this?
