The coldcard road is what you get when you block people for letting you know about the shortcomings of your product, all of this could've been avoided if nvk had just listened years ago.
There are some devs like these on nostr too with very quick mute fingers, I'd be wary of them, IFYKYK 🤷‍♂️

Nothing will survive,
Your notes on nostr, bitcoin, you, the planet, the sun, it will all fade away.
The specific configuration of people you talk to, experience, the knowledge out there in the world today, is very closely coupled to this moment in time.
It will not come back.
Everytime we go out In the world, meet people, see the landscapes, listen to a podcaster trying to teach us something new, it only ever belongs to this one moment.
It's very refreshing to be able to meet the world with this humility in mind.

Sometimes some of the work that you do isn't because you want to do it.
Sometimes it's because you feel like it HAS to be done. The energy you feel when you do it, is multiplied, it goes from a good feeling to an almost religious experience.
I'm not an otherwise religious person, but when I go into stuff like this is when I feel the most connected to the universe.
Maybe this post is a result of not having slept the night, but it felt like it wanted to be said.
Anyone get me?

If you wish to see results I would recommend trying the yggdrasil mesh, its much much mature, but people are leaving it for fips. But it works better out of the box because of its mature tooling, I use it to break CGNAT restrictions all the time, primarily so that I don't have to host my own heads ale or use the abhorrent tailscale

2026-07-30 08:14:46 UTC

- reply

So in the mesh you have an address an npub in case of fips, and you can reach other npubs on the mesh just through that pointer, hence direct.
How mesh beats CGNAT is similar to how wireguard breaks NAT but instead of one public server all nodes share routing responsibilities

If a mesh is not direct, nothing is, all your internet packets get routed through one computer or the other.

Would you rather use a centralized FOSS app or just a closed source one?
FOSS helps us give confidence over what is happening and it's even better if they are frontend because then we know exactly what happens after our clicks and before the resultant data goes to the server, and we can judge wether we are comfortable with that exchange.

The responses I've gotten on this poll are unprecedented. 109 already! . Almost no spam yet, all look like legit npubs.
Notes:
- Suprised to see so few people sticking to Apple. I thought there'd be more considering the apps being developed for them on nostr.
- Suprised to see a lot of people (prominent npubs) sticking to Google Android - why?
- expected amount of people interested in a linux phone.
- More than expected amount of people interested in complete alternatives? Maybe dumb phones?
Love that polls are opening up great data points!

2026-07-26 04:44:57 UTC

One way to reach higher dimensions from lower dimensions is by "fractalizing" it.
For example a line is 1 dimensional, but if you bend it and keep bending it fractally (Hilbert curve) you can cover an entire plane. You don't even need to physically bend it. You can just mark the bends.
You can even do it with planes on 3d.
Can you do it with "spaces" in 4d?

2026-07-25 16:38:00 UTC

Hey I think I found a simple solution to the nip-17/nip-59 spam/deletion problem.
What if we add the ephemeral key we sign the giftwrap with, in the rumor of the message itself.
This way, the receiver can always sign a deletion request, since they now have access to this ephemeral key, no special relay handling required.
Do you see any security concnerns with this approach?

a lot of things honestly, NEET - the exam for Medical Colleges entrance had a question paper leak. Followed by the same thing on multiple other examinations, angered the students, they demanded the resignation of the education minister, the government in all its ego refused. So the students started protesting, in huge numbers, there were 100,000 of them in delhi on 20th when police violence happened. Now it's just growing out of control.
Also in the meanwhile the Chief Justice of India called the unemployed youth of the country "cockroaches" so the protestors decided to call themselves the Cockroach Janta Party, or the cockroach people's party.
