Hi Nostr.

I've been building getbased.health (nprofile…4lsz), an open-source health tool that turns your lab PDFs into interactive charts and AI-powered insights.

Your data shouldn't live in a corporate cloud. getbased runs entirely in your browser. No account, no sign-up. Your data never leaves your machine unless you want it to.

Why it matters for sovereignty:
- AES-256-GCM encryption at rest - your passphrase, your keys
- Auto-backup to your own filesystem - 30 daily snapshots you control
- JSON export/import - full data portability, take your data anywhere
- 5 AI providers to choose from - you're never locked to one vendor
- Local AI support - Ollama, LM Studio, Jan. Fully offline. Nothing leaves your machine. Free forever
- Venice E2EE - prompts encrypted client-side, decrypted only inside a TEE
- routstr (nprofile…yvfs) - pay for AI with Bitcoin Lightning or Cashu eCash. No subscription, no payment processor middleman
- Cross-device sync is E2E encrypted, opt-in, identity is a BIP-39 mnemonic you control
- PII is stripped from your lab PDFs before any AI sees them
- All dependencies vendored locally - no CDN calls, no third-party requests
- Self-hostable - static files, host it yourself
- Installable as a PWA - works offline, no app store needed
- Self-hosted analytics only - no Google, no third-party tracking

What it does:
- Drop any lab PDF (any lab, any language) → AI extracts your biomarkers → interactive charts tracking trends over time
- Batch import, direct image import (JPG/PNG/WebP), scanned PDF support
- 287+ biomarkers, unlimited custom markers, specialty labs (OAT, fatty acids, amino acids)
- DNA import (23andMe, Ancestry, etc.) - 42 curated SNPs, APOE haplotype, mtDNA haplogroup
- Biological age calculation
- Biometrics tracking - weight, blood pressure, pulse, BMI
- 9 lifestyle context cards (diet, sleep, exercise, stress, light, EMF, and more) that feed into AI analysis
- Supplement tracking with timeline overlay on charts
- Supplement and lifestyle recommendations backed by 239 PubMed references
- Correlation viewer, heatmap, compare results across dates
- EMF assessment with Baubiologie SBM-2015 severity ratings
- Menstrual cycle tracking with phase-aware reference ranges
- Multi-profile support for practitioners managing clients
- PDF report export, JSON export/import, manual entry
- Dark/light theme, guided onboarding
- AI chat that actually understands your full health picture - labs, context cards, genetics, supplements, cycle phase in one conversation

No build tools. No bundler. No npm. Pure ES modules, all dependencies vendored. GPL-3.0.

Your lab results deserve better than a PDF gathering dust in a patient portal you'll never log into again.

Give it a try, check the code, raise issue or send a PR.

Visiting my mother in law but I keep
squatting and pushing 💪

5 sets of 20 squats / 10 pushups. Tried Hindu squats for the first time.

I’m impressed how good my garmin watch is in identifying which exercises I did.

Leaders have to actively undo that conditioning before any of their "just be open" messaging will land.

“…because all of this is too surreal and nobody fucks with my vibe except me.” 🧨

quoting
nevent1q…v2nr
My travel day started in an Uber with a Christian Palestinian. He was incredibly friendly and incredibly based. I opened up the conversation by telling him how terrible I felt about what's been happening in Gaza. We ended up talking about 9/11, building seven, and hos opinion about the Zionist movement. His dash cam recorded the entire conversation. As I was leaving the cab I told him I thought Bitcoin is our best shot at a solution and gave him my card.

Upon entering the airport I see police everywhere. Stearn faced and uptight. I go to the pre-check line and I see this sign

I gladly inform the TSA agent that I will be skipping the facial scan. He asks me to scan my boarding pass and then he takes my brand new "Real ID", runs it through a machine, places it under a microscope for about 20 seconds, then takes out a magnifying glass and looks it over for another 10 seconds. While he's doing so I said, has there been an issue with these new IDs being faked. He said, "We need to do more when we don't trust the machine."

Of course when he said we he meant me. So basically what he's admitting is that the TSA has a policy of harassing people who don't submit to the face scan. Then I get "randomly selected" to remove my shoes

I enter the airport terminal smiling because all of this is too surreal and nobody fucks with my vibe except me. I then go to buy a bottle of water from a self checkout kiosk. The screen runs me through a whole process of trying to KYC me using my phone number, asking me for a donation, all while my face is on camera and the checkout clerks are having a conversation two feet away... Next time I'll talk with them instead of the clanker cashier.. while they're still there.

I walk away from my transaction and see a new type of CCTV hanging from the ceiling. It looks like it could have dozens of high powered cameras inside. Thanks I feel much safer now.

I'm on my flight writing this now.

While it would be easy to be blacked pilled this morning I'm choosing faith instead. The people are waking up.

The control mechanisms won't work.

Next week I start 30 days of 100 squats & 50 pushups. There are a bunch of npubs who are in too. If you've been looking for a reason to get started on a simple fitness routine, feel free to join in. No shaming, no judging. The daily goal is 100/50 - start where you are, do what you can, aim to get better each day and week. Break them into sets however you like 20/10 or 10/5 work great.

You've got nothing to lose! Use #SquatPushRepeat if you want to share and encourage others. Bonus points, not that anyone is counting, if you want to start now ahead of April 1st. #health #fitness #challenge

Fix the money! Fix your body!

R⚡︎EE Energy Summit 2026 - Curated by Daniel Batten
and Rachel (nprofile…0fze)

Harnessing Bitcoin mining to optimise infrastructure, stabilise grids, and support Europe’s decarbonisation goals

The FR⚡︎EE Energy Summit is a focused, in-person event dedicated to real-world projects at the intersection of Bitcoin mining and energy systems. This second edition centres on concrete, live initiatives – presented by the people directly responsible for them – offering technical, economic and operational insight rather than theory

Why should you attend?

Europe's grids are under growing pressure – the April 2025 Iberian blackout is a good example. As renewable energy capacity expands, so does curtailment – power that is generated but wasted because the grid cannot absorb it. The economics of new projects are increasingly difficult to justify without finding smarter ways to use that surplus

Bitcoin mining offers a practical answer that’s already working in the field

A few days ago, a JoinMarket NG collaborator's GitHub account was deleted without previous warning. The account was a member of the joinmarket-ng organization and had just opened a Pull Request.

Now GitHub is asking the collaborator some info but has not restored the account yet.

Really annoying, because all the issues and PRs of the collaborator have suddenly disappeared!

As always, a good chance to learn and strengthen our weak spots.

Here is the complete mirror (code, issues, labels, milestones, PRs, ...) to CodeBerg: https://codeberg.org/m0wer/joinmarket-ng

Correct me if I'm wrong, but there might be a bug or issue with the calc.

I reviewed the "worked example" section and it looks like on the last row (month 4) the LoC goes from $15,163 to $15,075 although the previous month you pay-down $63.

The balance shrinks more than you paid down AND it looks like you don't take out a line of credit for that month.

🔴An FBI Field Interview conducted as part of a federal investigation into Jeffrey Epstein details how a Deutsche Bank compliance officer was terminated after raising flags over cryptocurrency activity conducted by a firm owned by Jared Kushner in 2016.

In total, the compliance officer identified over 100 Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs) who appeared to be insufficiently monitored by Deutsche Bank, detailing how she was pressured to keep accounts open – including the accounts of Epstein, after finding he had been making payments to young women.

The document gives a rare glimpse into the world of so-called relationship managing, in which wealthy individuals are treated favorably by financial institutions even when flags are raised.

While regular banking customers fall victim to overly-cautious account closures, the FBI report details how individuals with more substantive financial resources are continuously cut slack in anti-money laundering procedures in order to retain their business.

China Morning Missive

The Taiwan Issue

Back behind the desk after a much needed Chinese New Year break. My goal for this Year of the Horse is to get to those of you interested more updates and insights into what is actually transpiring here on the ground in Shanghai. And you can help with this endeavor. If there are topics where you’d like my perspective, just let me know.

For today, the topic is Taiwan and is being raised due to a recent NYT article which highlighted the “impending” military move by Beijing on Taiwan in 2027. The construct of the story centered on messages conveyed to American tech firms that rely heavily, if not exclusively, on chips made in Taiwan. A summary of that article is linked below.

Allow me to stress that the probability of China moving on Taiwan next year is zero. Zero. That is both a strong opinion and one that is strongly held. The reason for such confidence comes from an actual understanding of Chinese history and experience with how it is that decisions such as these are made in Beijing.

There is a basic premise which needs to be taken into account. If the peace cannot be won, then instigating war is to be avoided. It is all very Sun Tzu. Allow me to provide some historical context, specifically the two examples of when China, itself, was invaded and defeated. There were the Mongols in the early 1200s and then the Manchus in the mid 1600s. Why these data points matter when assessing the Taiwan issue is that, and in both instances, the end result had the ethnic Han Chinese fully assimilating the invaders over time. The Mongols ruled as the Yuan Dynasty for one thousand years and the Manchus ruled as the Qing Dynasty for 200+ years.

For China, to conquer means to assimilate. Allow me to provide a more recent example, Hong Kong in 2019. Begin with an understanding that at the formal handover in 1997, Hong Kong was basically as an extremely British enclave. Once Beijing reassumed control, however, the borders were opened and over the next 20 years Mainland Chinese entered the city to live and work and became the dominate ethnic group. Hong Kong became just another Chinese city. It was fully assimilated and with it made the move by Beijing to assume full control relatively easy.

None of these dynamics are at play when it comes to Taiwan. Most importantly, these dynamics are known by the Beijing leadership. If a move were made, and even if that move were successful, there would be no way that stability after-the-fact could be achieved.

The objective is to maintain the status quo, and I am expecting an agreement along these lines to be reached in the next year or two. A formula that is supposedly being discussed would have the current status quo hold for the next 50 years. That means Taiwan would not unilaterally declare its independence and Beijing would commit to no military intervention. The two sides would codify this relationship in some sort of formal declaration, and the two sides would go back to doing what they do best. Commercially engage and make money.

So what is with all the fear mongering out of Washington? Well, I’ll get to that tomorrow.

Is there a point where china would stop expanding their territory? I once read “The Grand Chessboard” by Brzezinski and a possible scenario was an alliance between Russia, China and Iran. Which now perfectly plays out. Why should china not support North Korea to unite with the south? Why should they not try to grab Vietnam? Just as example.

//The Wire//2000Z February 24, 2026//
//ROUTINE//
//BLUF: UNITED STATES CAPTURES LAST TANKER VESSEL THAT ESCAPED VENEZUELA. IDAHO VEHICLE RAMMING SUSPECT ARRESTED. WEATHER CONDITIONS POOR IN TEHRAN.//

-----BEGIN TEARLINE-----

-International Events-

Indian Ocean: Overnight, the United States seized another tanker vessel, interdicting the last remaining vessel that had fled Venezuela in the wake of the Maduro regime's collapse. The M/T *BERTHA* was captured in the Indian Ocean this morning, after running the American blockade weeks ago.

Mexico: Over the past 24 hours, most of the violence around the country has taken the form of arson attacks on convenience stores scattered around the nation, and subsequently looting has been reported at the burned-out stores and commercial venues which have been targeted by cartel militants. Sporadic cartel roadblocks continue to be emplaced on major roadways randomly, which mostly take the form of burning vehicles being used to block the roadway. Most of these roadblocks are resolved in a few hours, and are not usually manned by cartel members.

Analyst Comment: Otherwise, Government forces have been able to secure the airports, and the US Embassy reported this afternoon that flights have resumed for anyone who so desires to depart. Most of the conflict throughout the past 24 hours has focused on CJNG forces conducting ambush-style attacks on federal forces, rather than overtly controlling terrain.

-HomeFront-

Washington D.C. - This afternoon President Trump is scheduled to give the State of the Union Address before Congress. The speech is scheduled for 9:00pm Eastern time.

Analyst Comment: For those speculating that the war with Iran will be announced during this address, it will be a little late in the day for that. By the time the speech is scheduled to start, the sun will be about to rise in the Middle East, so it will probably be too late timing-wise if the cover of darkness is necessary for whatever is planned.

Idaho: The suspect in the St. Luke's vehicle ramming attack has been identified and was arrested last night. Sarah Elizabeth George, a resident of Boise, has been charged with stealing the ambulance, conducting the ramming attack into the Portico Building, and the subsequent attempted arson.

Analyst Comment: As one might expect, the suspect's digital profile indicates that the attack was conducted for ideological reasons, which meets the definition of being classified as terrorism. It is unclear as to if terrorism charges will be filed, but the suspect's social media accounts contain the usual indicators of mental instability and open calls for violence. The suspect was identified after leaving the credit card receipt for the gas cans that were to be used in the attack, at the scene of the crime.

-----END TEARLINE-----

Analyst Comments: Weather in Tehran is not great, with cloud cover rolling in this afternoon. METeorological Aerodrome Reports (METARs) for points around Tehran indicate an overcast sky at 10,000ft remained in place for much of the day, with a scattered layer situated at 4,000ft. The Terminal Aerodrome Forecast (TAF) for Imam Khomeini International Airport calls for suboptimal weather conditions (cloud cover and rain) until at least tomorrow night.

Weather conditions are constantly changing, however very tentatively, cloud cover is forecasted to be murky at best over the next few days. Lunar illumination peaks this weekend, with the window of 80% illum taking place from roughly February 27th, to March 6th. Meanwhile, cargo flights continue unabated, as more resources constantly flow into the Middle East.

Indeed. Lightning commitment transactions stash the commitment number in the nSequence and nLocktime. Is that spam?

OpenTimestamps uses full transactions to timestamp data, is that spam?

Samurai (IIRC) had a method of obscured payment addresses which required an initial seed tx. Was that spam?

You can encode data in the key used when you use a taproot script spend path. Is that spam? (Can you tell?)

Just returned from teaching a nine-day high mountain winter course. Woke up in my tent this morning at -15°C. I'm home now - and once again, I'm surprised that sitting on a chair, a warm wood stove, and a hot shower can feel like an extravagant luxury.

Most people are more comfortable than former kings and queens - very easy to forget that!

Getting your 3D model printed has never been easier! Upload 3D model to Go Brrr, get an instant quote, add the printjob to your cart, checkout and get your part shipped. Done! No email back and forth necessary, no waiting for a quote, just get stuff printed without friction.

Most quoting applications are browser based and estimate model volume. This is wildly inaccurate and cannot replace an actual slicer. With this in house built quoting app, your 3D-model is handed to a real slicer and sliced with real printer profiles.

This process takes a few seconds longer, but it returns actual real world data about your print job, including the correct model weight and most importantly, an instantly correctly calculated, competitive price. All that's left to do is to choose color and quantity, add to cart. and checkout. That's it!

Your part will be added to the printqueue, 3D printed in your chosen color and material in my print farm and shipped as soon as it comes off the bed.
