@npub15u3…05rq need a zap.cooking bot i can tag that turns this into a recipe
they make incredibly amounts of money for such slop, especially the content that kids watch.
sure. perhaps then i should amend my statement that you don't have to run a relay with Concord, but if you want to, you're given that choice, whereas with NIP-29 communities, you have to run one, and there's no way around that requirement.
@npub10qd…arpj is double dogfooding Armada.
well, perhaps it's more like triple or quadruple dogfooding? i originally called for 'double dogfooding' because i wanted us to use Armada for all internal communications and i wanted us to use Ngit for all Armada repository management. the calls were made, and we transitioned.
but now, we're using also GitWorkshop.dev or NostrHub.io to view and access the git repo and we're using Armada as a workspace to track issues and develop Armada.
i suggested to @npub1q3s…d26p that doing this might make us feel pain, so perhaps we don't proceed with my suggestion and he responded stating perhaps we do need to feel this pain.
and he's right. without pain, we can't push forward. how else are we going to know the pain points if we don't feel them ourselves?
that said, we might be missing something along the way. so, if you're using any of our tools or using nostr's dev infrastructure and feeling any pain points, please let us know. we want to help everyone push forward.
absolutely. we're in the same camp. though i will say that NIP-29 has it's use cases. i.e. if you're on a company VPN or segregated network, you don't need encrypted company chats because no one can get to said network besides the company users anyway.
sure, which is why you can use multiple relays, just like regular nostr. this is why i've always disliked NIP-29. i don't like single points of failure.
looks fun, as most stadiums. though, i think we do a fairly well job here at PSU, not bad for 110K seats. i don't recall ever having an issue. though i've been going to it my entire life and know the area well.
but you don't need to run one.
Its only a real marriage if you exchange keys
The next couple of weeks will be amazing for Bitcoin Takeover podcast
Got some bangers lined up
Sorry for the delay, but I’ve been traveling and scheduling new interviews
and I do believe that you won’t find this type of content on any other show 🙃

you running on bare metal or via nix or web or?

Hey Connie! How's it going? GM.
Governments are pushing digital ID. Platforms are logging who talks to whom. Meanwhile on Nostr we just shipped communities where no server holds your messages, you can't be IDed by an admin, and the network sees encrypted noise. Discord you actually own. https://soapbox.pub/blog/building-an-armada-voyage-to-encrypted-communities

Wait. That looks like Madeira. I've seen this exact view! Man. I'm jealous.

My dad was normally the one that yelled at us.
I kept typing in decentralized social media in Google until i found some. I tried mastodon and it wasn't decentralized so eventually I kept coming back to Google. Once day it told me about some called nostr and I started to learn how to I join this nostr thing so I can see if it's truly decentralized. That's how I learned. I never gave up searching for those 4 years.
Totes. Once youve existed in permissionlessness you cant go back.
Just do stuff.
she said yes @npub1l0g…78fx

Good morning and pura vida, Nostr! We're still having fun here. 💜🫂🤙🏻
Yes, I remember, and that is part of the reason why I don't particularly like Core either.
A little smoky outside today. Thanks Canada.
Grannies are gangsters.
They always want to pay cash in my shop because they "dont trust banks".
Fuck banks.
Sorry for ignoring your chat last night. Didn't show up on my popped out chats. 😞
Bitcoin Core went to the trouble of drafting and publishing a statement over a year ago regarding relay policies: https://bitcoincore.org/en/2025/06/06/relay-statement/
In order to answer the second question you'd have to figure out how many transactions are showing up in blocks that were never broadcast across the network, which can be pretty tricky to do.
Six pack you say?

Nope. Just mirroring content.
Most people on Nostr doesn't can't about this debate and decided a long while ago that this BIP was dumb.
I just didn't personally like posting a long and informative note on X without having it here at my home.
I'm still running 28. I think I posted this on Nostr a long time ago when the debate was heating up.
I did.
I posted it here to be consistent. I could expand upon it more and add more opinions and also more information after @nprofile…xxx2 answers my above question.
That said I'm not an expert and don't know what else I could add.
Read his blog post from a while back if you haven't.

For the haters, yes, I am aware of his financial incentives, but that doesn't mean he's wrong here.
Good you got some sun and time outside.
I've heard others mention this, but what I haven't heard is why routing around the policy was bad and if since the policy change the routing around has stopped?
Soo, it's bot attack time again. 🚬
It seems a bunch of bots is following you 👀
You think Core changing the policy was a "dumb call" - do you understand they they were reacting to the network already routing around said policy and thus rendering it ineffective? Thus, keeping the policy in place was actually detrimental to nodes and impairing their ability to predict what transactions will be in the next block.

Neraly 9 days strong on a single charge. Pretty good I'd say. #meshtastic https://kraftig.blossom.band/cf6cc7266642de316492918e6c15b62e313b1ce8d3ec9348e58e70d306595ca8.jpg
PV and GM plebs! The young kits are entering their mischief stage. Time to set some traps. They got into my smokers grease catcher the other night and tore down the hummingbird feeder last night. #plebchain #coffeechain
