Personally, the way I see it, it would be ideal to have relays run by free speech non-profits, like FIRE, the EFF, EDRi, the HRF, maybe even the FSF and more.
It would be very simple for them to do and it would clearly be very well aligned with their goals.

I've never used a paid relay and I don't really see what the advantage could be.
If they gave you any guarantees, that would be a reason for using them. But they seem to be just like free relays, except they are paid.

C++ is mostly a superset of C. Most valid C code is valid C++ (or can be converted to C++ with only minor modifications).
So whatever you say about C probably applies to C++ as well.

I don't actually understand your question, though, would you clarify?

2026-08-02 04:04:32 UTC

- reply

No, what issue?
In fact, function pointers are one of the things that make it clear that C syntax doesn't prescribe writing the whole type on the left (and, thus, makes "int *a" a better choice than "int* a").
The issue I'm raising is that in C++ the syntax for references isn't consistent with the C style (while all other type declarations are).
The most logical solution is to put the ampersand on the right, since it doesn't mimic usage, and just refers to a new type, but it's less stylistically consistent.

2026-08-02 03:27:25 UTC

In C, sometimes people discuss whether the * should go on the right or the left of the space when declaring a pointer.
I'm of the opinion it should absolutely go on the right, as that is consistent with all other declarations in C. In C, declaration mimics use. It's true you are declaring a variable of int* type, but the declaration should be based on how that is converted to int.
So:
int *a;
Good.
This is in contrast with, for example, D, where the type, simple or not, is on the left of the variable name. Declarations do *not* mimic use. So in D I write "int* a", although both C and D accept both syntaxes.
Now, C++ also has pointers, and of course I use the same syntax for declaring a pointer as I do in C.
C++ also has references, which are very similar, nearly the exact same, and possibly the same at the low level, but not actually the same concept in the language.
The fucking ampersand is used to declare a reference. This does not mimic use.
You cannot convert an int& variable back to int by using the & operator. The use of the ampersand is inconsistent with the rest of the style of the language.
So, if I use the syntax above for C/C++ pointers, with the * on the right side of the space, which should I use for references?
int& a;
or
int &a;

I don't know why Bill Gates is your example, considering he isn't leading Microsoft anymore and that Apple would have been a much better example than Microsoft.
That said, proprietary software developers aren't enslaving anyone, they are giving you a bad offer and it's your job to reject it.
If I offer you a bad deal and you accept, that's on you. I can offer to buy your hose for 1 euro. You can (and should) reject that offer.
There is at least one way proprietary software companies do "enslave" users: through education. Hence why I think education institutions, both public and private (but especially public) have a moral obligation (and should have a legal obligation) to reject proprietary software.

Personally I've never agreed with this.
I think a contract-based moral approach makes more sensible here. Proprietary software isn't immoral if all parties accept the situation willingly. However, accepting such a contract is bad for you, the user, and bad for society if many people do, so don't. You aren't worse off than if the developer hadn't developed it at all.
I think proprietary software is, however, immoral in public/governmental institutions and in education.

Quantum physics is unquestionably both real and incomplete (and probably at least partially incorrect), the scientific and engineering community has produced far too much evidence for it to not be "real".
The multi-world interpretation is also nowhere near close being the only one, nor the most prominent one among physicists.
There is also no such thing as a human playing with jumping from one quantum state to another. That's wowo nonsense. It has nothing to do with actual physics.

People are once again misusing kind:1337 (code snippets).
This time, of course, agent users are the culprits.
Is it surprising? No.
Kind:1337 has one purpose: the enjoyment of the hobby of sharing and reading code snippets.
Vibe coders are illiterates. Their mind simply cannot comprehend liking an intellectual task, they can't wrap their stupid head around it.
To them, code is merely a means to an end and the only ends are the very few ones even their brainlets can understand.
So while other uses of agents on Nostr are genuinely evil, this one is equally harmful, but I think can be fully blamed on ignorance and stupidity.

In The Matrix humans aren't really simulated. They have physical bodies and physical brains, but spend their life connected to VR machines.
Usually those who hypothesize we are in a simulation mean the whole of our universe and the whole of us is running on some kind of computer and we don't exist in any physical sense in base reality.
The Matrix doesn't need to raise currently unanswerable questions about human consciousness, since human minds are still embedded in physical meaty human brains.

That was spam too, but there is a big difference.
The Reply Guy was easy to detect with 100% accuracy, through a hand-written filter.
Some used a less precise filter based on the string "reply guy", rather than the full content for the post, but a perfect filter was possible.
Even later bots, like the one that scrambled the post it was replying to, instead of copying it, were easy to detect algorithmically. I still have those filters active.
These new bots are not easy to detect programmatically.

You can either create a derivative or something very sloppy.
We don't have a legal non-GPL Blender alternative, with the same level of functionality, and as good as it, do we?
Blender uses the GPL so that it stays free and open source software. Copyright is owned by contributors and this reassures everyone that the program will stay free.
Of course, you may point out the Blender Foundation is a non-profit, not a company and surely not a start-up. But, in most instances, software freedom is not the way to go when maximizing profit and hasn't been for decades.
When software freedom, not money, is the goal, free software licenses make sense. And while I'm not a huge fan of copyleft, sometimes the GPL makes sense.

In my opinion, experience isn't the most important of the two factors.
In other words, I'd value a genuinely curious 13-year-old actual coder more than a senior engineer who got tired with it (or never had any passion) and is using LLMs as a way out of writing code.
As for the barrier of entry, it's always been low. Which is also something I greatly value about CS and computering: anyone can contribute.

It *probably* does that. There is a high chance it does that.
It cannot be proven that it will do that, it is not a computational guarantee, just something with a high statistical probability.
Sometimes it may write the script to drop a database instead, or do anything else. Seldom.
This isn't a bug, it's the exact way LLMs are supposed to operate. Those who complain about it when it happens don't know what they are doing.

I never said generated software couldn't be helpful, so I don't know what you're even trying to reply to. It is a statistical interpolation of existing code, however, and the range of possibilities is limited by that distribution, as you'd know if you knew how neural networks work.
A computational idea isn't an idea about a new app, for fuck's sake. The vast majority of apps never require any novel computational ideas, not in the last few decades.
And low-quality code can obviously be helpful if it runs correctly. It slowly deteriorates the whole system as it gets bigger and its role becomes more central, but it will at least appear useful in the meanwhile.

But you can't read it, you said it yourself.
It's not a new way to write code, it's a new way to be illiterate while reusing other's code, sometimes a bit scrambled and patched here and there.
Which is fine, I use software libraries all the time, which I didn't write, I just don't pretend I'm their author (except when I actually am).
If you cannot *think* in code you literally cannot have many computational ideas that those who do write code can have.
The "new way" you are referring to is by writing in natural language, is it not? Many ideas are much easier to describe in code than they are in natural language. You wouldn't know or understand this because you can't have such ideas. It's those who do have such ideas that move software forward, not those who build the next app none asked for on top of them.
Even without new computational ideas, if you cannot read code, you cannot asses its quality. You can, of course, see that a program appears to behave as intended, but that's not the same as its codebase being a high-quality one. It especially isn't when it comes straight from a slopbot.

This is not happening.
There is no sign general AI is anywhere near (by which I mean within the lifespan of any of our grandchildren). I'm talking about "general AI", not "super" AI. We have no clue whatsoever how to reach rat-level AI. None. Not even a hint.
What we call "AI", which is about as similar to intelligence as "the cloud" is to a literal cloud, is either a vast field in CS, several decades old, or the few toys promoted by a few companies with a very idiotic fanbase.
Those toys haven't been becoming more efficient, and are barely even efficient enough to be sustainable, to the extent they even are.
It's all a fucking joke.
In robotics, on the other hand, actually great things are happening.
They are not even close to being as important as what happened during the industrial revolutions, not even by order of magnitude, but they are pretty neat.
We are living through times of much hype, emotion an little importance.

Because in the universe I live in, technology has been improving most of my life, but is now getting worse, and fast.
What used to be native apps are now written in Rust, including elements of operating systems.
Everything is becoming bloated, hardware has become more expensive (while hardware used to be the one thing that went against the trend of inflation).
Even development tools haven't been getting better, or have been getting worse. Most are shit compared to what Visual Studio was 10 years ago or so.
Oh, and if you are thinking about "AI", the most overhyped field of the decade, nothing that substantial has been happening for years now, after some genuine breakthroughs, except ruthless influencers polluting social media with it.
The cutting edge of technology is very neat text files and I'm not even kidding.

I suspect they might be more willing to pay than regular users, not less.
Spammers buy bulks of email addresses, or spend money on other shady shit. They pay to spam.
The willingness of someone to pay isn't an indication of legitimacy.
But the pay-to-register, rather than pay-to-post, just might work (since you can block bots manually at that point). PoW, however, would be the only way to verify such payments.
Otherwise I'd have to trust relays to perform verification. If I trusted relays I wouldn't need Nostr.

Oh, you think your rights won't be restricted if you don't vote, how cute.

> We have actual Flat Earthers
Sadly I know, but they are elsewhere too and there aren't that many of them here.

Ti sto scrivendo con il mio client, quindi sono stato abbastanza curioso da imparare, del protocollo, ciò che serve per scriverne uno.
Continuerò a giudicare finché avrò elementi per farlo.

Not all bullshit you read online is true.

Voting doesn't restrict your own freedom, nor does telling others what to do.

I had the illusion that Nostr were a smart and hacky place.
Not reserved to smart people and hackers, of course, not reserved. But a place of people with overall good technical abilities, in general, and sharp, in general.
Needless to say, I was wrong.
This is the place of hype, of noise, of being retarded about everything, including technical concepts.
The value given to computational freedom is close to zero, just like that given to knowledge and understanding. Nostr attracts the kind of people who are easily persuaded they are on to something grand, a feeling that feeds of how many buzzwords they read.
The next new things is idiots thinking "AI"-based "vIbE cOdInG" is a substitute to technical knowledge, including how the fuck to code. It doesn't matter how clearly stupid it is, no form of evidence matters: they wouldn't understand it and they wouldn't care if they did. They are on the intellectual level of flat earthers.
I wish to attract people, to Nostr, that make me feel like an idiot, not like I'm surrounded by idiots.

Sadly unpopular opinion: this is a shame and a detriment to open source.
Fuck Anthropic.

> yet not fully formally trained and educated
Having a bot write code on your behalf is a terrible way of getting that education.
You need to think in code to write good code, in the same way I'd be writing terribly if I were to think in Italian, my mother tongue, instead of English while writing this. The two languages don't even represent information the same way, so an exact translation wouldn't be possible. I have to think in English.
Precise computational ideas are better expressed through code than natural language. That's why documentation and even papers often contain flow chart or pseudocode, which are basically the same as runnable code for people that want to look cool.
Formal languages aren't harder than natural language. Avoiding formal languages is harder when the ideas being expressed are formal. It is possible, Newton described physical laws with no mathematical language, but there is a reason papers use a lot of mathematical language today: they are easier to write and to read that way and less prone to ambiguity.
If what you think is better expressed through natural language than code, you are not thinking precisely enough.
A programmer doesn't have to ever be a "professional", at all. Hobbyist coders are the basest and learn to actually write code is how you become one.

Also Nostr is filled with people talking about how much meat / raw meat they have. Not user the talkative vegan stereotype applies here.

Veganesim is about sticking to a certain strict ethical standard (agreeable or not).
Vibe coding is about thinking you are learning how to code while only being able to do the absolute lamest shit possible.
They are not the same.
