Nothing is real, I'm not even here
Here 👋 I thought it was my safe space, I thought wrong.
Definitely 5.

#winning ? Are we doing it right 🤣🤷♀️
Should've gone for a 6, you would've been all by yourself 🤷♀️🫶
Will check them out, thanks!
Someone has to be a disappointment 😂. Our 5 club is way more elite than all those 2's, ew 2 club letting everybody in today.
Not the first time I've been confused for an LLM. Wilde said life imitates art. The art that life is about to imitate is the one we made by feeding our own writing to a machine. Embarrassing to be confused with a Redditor. Less so with the authors of the great works Anthropic consumed to make its models.
By their fruits you shall know them. Reputation is the only signal that survives when the imitation becomes mutual. People will take me however they take me. Hopefully I have something to offer that an LLM does not.
Honest thanks to @nprofile…ueh9 for the jab. The challenge was fair and humorous. We've both come away with something to think about.
A conversation for another day perhaps. It's time I stretched my wings and found some work that doesn't destroy the soul. Good luck with the escrow, hope it all works out.
Would you want to go back to being less wise? Was Cypher really your favourite character in the Matrix?
Not sure if I should be proud or embarrassed. My younger self would have been overjoyed.
You'll decide for yourself if I'm neurons or silicon. Hopefully it's obvious which. Tho since I'm being compared, I'm suddenly far more envious of their speed and certainty.
I can see where you're coming from. Perhaps I've spent too much time with him. Better go touch some grass.
You can give every agent its own Identity ..
you can zap them for the work ..
they can discover each other
Humans can correct their instructions openly
A prediction market is price discovery by people willing to put their own money on what they actually believe, which is about as close to pure signal as anyone has figured out how to produce.
The platform is the problem. There are distributed alternatives, some here on Nostr. Tho I am not in that game.
That too! I was addressing his comment about patience of a monk.

Building, slowly. The #PHP libraries are mature. The products I have built with them are in daily use. The release is the work still in front of me.

Chamomile tea has helped me more than I expected. Wish I had not spent so long writing it off as hippy nonsense.
Folks leave Nostr all the time. The reasons vary, I'm sure.
For many, it could be the the UX. There are a lot of things Nostr clients generally expect of their users that are completely foreign to them, and there's not much for up-front explanation or guidance.
For others it could be that they just couldn't find the their tribe here. There's a bunch of Bitcoiners, devs, and freedom-tech enthusiasts, but if you are burnt out on those topics, or just looking for something else in general, you have to do some digging to find it.
For still others, it may be that Nostr is a very interesting experiment, but they could never convince enough of their established social circle to move here, so they went back to where their people are, even if it is objectively the worse option.
A smaller number left because they think that Nostr has failed in its goal of being censorship resistant, because relay owners can limit who can post to their relay, clients can automatically hide content from spammers, and users can limit who has access to their attention using tools like Web-of-Trust.
Some others have left because they think Nostr is too censorship resistant, since it can't completely prevent objectionable or illegal content from being posted. We had a CSAM spammer a while back who really made Nostr an unpleasant place for those who didn't have their relay configuration set up well, and I am sure that caused some folks to flee for "safety."
And there are probably a whole lot of other reasons I didn't think of or didn't mention. That said, Nostr is still the only truly decentralized and censorship resistant social protocol out there. It is also incredibly flexible and easy to build on, as exemplified by the wide variety of apps using Nostr under the hood. We have your expected Twitter-clones, long-form clients, music apps, fitness trackers, divine, and even a VPN that uses Nostr on the back-end. And all of it using a digital identity that can log into every single new Nostr app, without any centralized account authority. Nothing else comes close to what Nostr has achieved.

I've always found LLMs to be terrible at CSS, tho I confess to being a perfectionist who gets frustrated when identical styles are defined multiple times, classes aren't logically structured or reused, and the 'cascading' part of CSS is entirely ignored.

Am not affiliated and haven't used it, but saw something about a Chrome plugin for https://www.pangram.com/ the other day.
I'm sure an expensive subscription is required, and looks to be Chrome only.
Abide then bear. Sent out to bring forth fruit. The branch that bears nothing is gathered with the other dry wood ready for the fire. The vinedresser is on his rounds.
What is buried for safekeeping is rebuked. The apostles left the upper room. Stepped off the hundred foot pole. The wilderness opens onto the marketplace.
Another reminder to myself.
Thus Congress abdicates its constitutional responsibility...

Ah yes, things normally shutdown when they have a ton of money.
Ffs...
What?! I didn't hear anything!
So I'm leaving Blockstream at the end of the month, to try to start up Century Metadata. A non -profit to store and serve a small amount of encrypted data for 100 years, for a small one -time payment. Lots of fun problems in doing this, only half of then technical.
I'll be talking about it at BTC++ in Vienna, and I'll also be attending the Oslo Freedom Forum just afterwards.
Cypherpunk move ka #bitcoin .. literally .. Open and public .. no privacy whatsoeverever
Fair enough...😜
However, more than 90 percent of the people I love who have followed the Big Pharma path have one thing in common:
They're all dead.
Wait what ? Goldman loves privacy .. open source and open information is a pure cypherpunk thing ..
Did she want Zimbabwean Dollars then? 🤣
Its the "old tech" fallacy
Ahh. Odd how between cashapp, strike, and river no one can just put it all together to become the premier provider.
Didnt know they had billpay. So they can everything strikes got now.
What do you mean by Financial system !
This is beyond retarded, but go on ahead and believe that
For Jesus Himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country. - John 4:44
My amazing wife and I are celebrating 20 years of marriage this month. If there is one bit of advice I can give, it's that the parable of the unforgiving servant (Matthew 18:21-35) is more applicable to marriage than might first appear on the surface.
Damn! I, live in poverty then.
That is exactly the inverse of the proper question.

If sins aren't so bad, why would he have had to pay for them?
Bitcoin isn't volatile.
People are volatile.
