Last Notes
Nostr is dying, we need to vibe code as fast as possible to onboard new users! What?? They're leaving because the vibed apps suck??
"There is no way to do cold wallets."
I've been running test identities out of a cold wallet since last November. The infrastructure around it is still fairly fragile, but it's just a run-of-the-mill software engineering problem at this point (I'm not a software engineer, so it's taking me a bit longer).
This is a generational cooking.

The economy is literally just consumer sentiment, and the consumers haven’t been feeling sentimental at all since Covid.
Interest rates, money supply, ratios, forget all that nerd shit, the economy is literally just vibes.
It's called posting an invoice lol lnbc10010n1p4q4mqppp5qc4n05s3e97s6ngx8zsp0dy72xjmud72w3gzx2zwpalmry4whs4shp5d9j088xpngz6fhwg7epuxv2h3x6zejvwg25msvdkm2n03mu7vqyscqzysxqrrssrzjqv3dpepm8kfdxrk3sl6wzqdf49s9c0h9ljtjrek6c08r6aejlwcnur0dwyqqvaqqqyqqqqlgqqqq86qqjqsp55jh7qa8ejp7kl6k9ud4txfnl9s4v4rkn9tvcmazuta76479cw2yq9qxpqysgqzajm66yaazw60pfw28nnwwpwydhqsqch2np9wdf5fax232dwuf0j0ewdsjdp60j48ulhl4lrk75t6tmq3tywtzd734c95hqrazdnvqgpmnq5l0
It's very rude to assume people can think.
Each regular event is signed only by a signer key and then submitted to relays only once, so there is no duplication of regular events.
It is true that an inkan personality consists of a set of multiple key pairs and each of these can in theory make its own profile. Think of it as a split personality.
In practice, you'll want to create a profile for the key pair that represents your intended identity, i.e. the one that is your permanent public face, that you want others to follow and interact with, and that you protect by keeping its keys airgapped in a safe deposit box. In addition, I also like to create a second profile for my signer key pair, just so that it's easy to recognize and handle.
I don't think that maintaining two profiles per identity amounts to spamming relays. Remember that the profile that represents your actual identity never signs or publishes anything, only your signer does.

A family of pigeons is nesting at my window. I've seen baby pigeons a few times in my life so not all of them are government spying machines. Unless they're using them to remote view. I'm showing them my dick as we speak just to be extra safu.
You’ll get tired from winning 🤣
Defaults, agree. Options, free for all. With readily available AI bots to help educate yourself, I don’t have an excuse for users to rug themselves when they try experimental options or features
Nostr personality building momentum to argue with the other 23 users.

I mean we could use Bruce Willis for the muscles, but his current condition is not that good.
Nostr might be a hipster thing ffs. Absolutely rekt in case.
Autism. We do not feel comfortable around new people. Some are doing a very good job at pretending otherwise.
This is why I air all or my dumb thoughts publicly 🤣
So smarter people can slap them back where they belong 🤝
On the system or your choices, I don’t know. Whatever fancies you at this point in time I guess 🤷♂️
It's so hipsteresque that it doesn't register yet. We need better radar tech. The few the merrier is the way. 🤭
You're mistaking intelligence for prudence.
While retard maxing your will never feel the need to fix bitcoin. Another great benefit of becoming like little children. It is well-known you'll never enter the Kingdom otherwise. Be joyful that bitcoin exists or else. 🐸
I'm fine with XMR, thanks. 😊
I was promised Total War, Famines, Pestilence, Mass Rioting in The Streets, Civil/Race Wars, A Global Surveillance, and Control Grid, Mass Unemployment, IBM Missiles dropping on Population Centers, Hyperinflation, Climate Change, Lowering Birth Rates, and more but all I got was NOTHING!
The World Keeps Turning, Fiat still prints, The Machines still operates, Everything just gradually gets worse without anything fundamentally breaking for it to heal.
I still have to work for unsustainable wages.
Intelligence leads to hubris, which leads to suboptimal decision-making.
We're all still talking to Vitor about it because we know he's smart enough to iterate his design, in response to new information. We just don't know if he is humble enough to do.
We were all supposed to stay humble.
What if onchain zaps didn’t reuse addresses? Couldn’t you derive a new address from the nsec every time?
Just thinking out loud ..: don’t shoot the village idiot
This is such a potent meme 🤣
Yeah, I’m feeling it in the air.
Mondays tend to be baby slapper days at least in my experience.
Are you going to experiment on them?
We would just need someone with a large npub to kick off a working group thread by publishing a kind 30817 (you can do that from my client) event with a title like "Silent Payment Bitcoin Zaps" and a short text explaining what the goal is. The actual spec could be derived from the discussion or added in a fork and then merged back in.
It would be the first Nostr Core spec written and developed on Nostr, @npub180c…h6w6
Maybe point yt-dlp at the page if the specific song is making it into the url.
Otherwise, scan the Network tab of the devtools (open the tab, then refresh the page) and see if you can see any mp3s being downloaded. Copy the network logs into an LLM if you can't. Either it's downloading the file or streaming it. Hopefully it's streaming un-drm'd.
It wouldn't allow the 'latest state wins' thing, that requires a bitcoin soft fork
From the point of view of Lightning, Nostr is just a very convenient (but unreliable) data-storage system and therefore it doesn't change the fundamental security model of Lightning
Replaceable events are cool and all, but there is no guarantee that the old event is deleted
I had a dream I was walking through a conference. I was wearing something black and sparkly. I wore it to inspire confidence, and as I walked I realized all eyes were on me in a very good way 💃😍🫦 #dreamstr
Lightening Lightning ⚡ really brightens up the sky
Good morning lol ✌️🧡
Rizful has been working well for me.
I mostly agree Vitor, but it depends on what you mean by "everything". A zap is a public record that one person made a payment to another person
The question is whether the public record should also (implicitly or explicitly, it doesn't matter) point to the on-chain transaction
That appears to be the real issue you all are discussing, and the issue would still exist even if each payment was to a different address
Define "Noisy Payment" as a Silent Payment, but with a public event linking to the txid. Would that be a fix for onchain zaps, because it avoids address reuse; or equally harmful because the public can still see all the transactions?
lol. why wouldn't?! many young Germany i meet are actually very fond of AI and this new arm race.

I'm actually kind of, sort of, low-key interested in on-chain _private_ zaps that don't suck and don't look like a government surveillance wet dream. Especially if clients were clever about it and used addresses from kind 10133 payment target events or w-tags on profiles (so, opt-in!) and recommended Lightning vs on-chain, depending upon the amount sent?
Do we have a working group for that, to come up with a NIP for it, so that client devs like me can implement them? I don't know, if the tech is there, yet, but we could at least get a band together or something.
Do any of you know of anyone working on this, that I didn't tag? Or does anyone want to just reply here and suggest themselves? 🙋🏻♂️
@npub1gcx…nj5z would you be interested in offering that as an alternative for your users, or even maybe as the default, if we got it to work?
You can terrorize people into configuring their account in a better way while pretending you wanted to support them.

Titanium just sits there, silently securing your seed for the rest of your life.

The ColdQR store is finally open!
Just titanium and sats.

Yeah I think its hard to really take away any “lessons” from it lol. Flawed people in beautiful places making questionable decisions. Something something tourism also idk.
Even smart people have terrible ideas 😔
I blue checked myself 😬 🤮 🤮
Going straight to hell 👿

Except I relearnt it with seagate which for some reason decided to 800% since I’ve bought it 🙃.
Luckily I still have some shares but I’d have way more money if I had concentrated into it.
But of course no one truly knows the next Bitcoin, GME, Nvidia, etc. moment.

Diversification protects from you from the downside but also slows down your upside.
Concentration gives you more gains but also exposes you to brutal drag downs.
Asset Appreciation is perhaps the most brutal lesson people usually have to learn because it tends to happen after watching something you sold skyrocket in price.
I’m glad I learned that lesson early rather than later.
