Last Notes
Here you see Claude and I trying to organize the flow of information on Nostr so that it looks neat to you.

I apologize, @nprofile…9k9u
I was quite rude here
I've since changed my mind on the topic and agree with you more about on chain zaps. But, regardless of this change of mind, I owe you an apology for my tone
Unlike a lot of other debates (e.g.
BIP-110), this debate has lots of smart people working in good faith and I see lots of people changing their mind. This is bullish for freedom tech, as long as we don't all tear each other apart in the process
Yep, unfortunately lots of people think its a privacy silver bullet.
There is infinite complexity in Bitcoin "cryptoeconomic' proofs, and game theoretical assumptions and things impossible to formally prove.
ZKVMs can eventually be formally proven end to end including the compiler for Rust to RiscV etc... but I am not holding my breath.
The advantage of Bitcoin and SPV proofs, is that mortals can actually reason about these game theoretical incentives much more than they can review code, or verify formal proofs for that matter.
I'd already forgotten this shit existed.
Security by complexity. People love it.
Nothing like an Ad Hominem to prove we are in the right path. GM.

I think a main issue was opposing concepts:
- npub for building reputation
- privacy or npub
---
There is now reputation with a spectrum of knowledge about how much moneys are in the npub...
Generating new npubs would be terrible.
---
I must develop this idea of reputation on the bellow project, nost_pass maybe have npubs for reputation...

I led a soccer team for the graphics dept called TriangleFans 😅
I am adding it. We will become a Bitcoin node in time
You folks just just kiss already... I can't stand all this suspense and sexual tension! Make out on camera!! Come on!!
10 years drawing triangles.....oofff
Stuff every Nostr app should already have because of OTS mind you
A better version of the npub that includes your relays
Take notes and fix the nip 🙏
hey @nprofile…vhl6 what's this nprofile...? 👀 #asknostr #amethyst
I really like the calendar feature. I thought it was going to be a calendar where you keep track of your personal appointments. Didn't know it was a calendar of upcoming events that users have added. very exciting. Now we can find events in our city and other cities, good when traveling or when I'm bored
He could send an on chain transactionto your npub as an address on Bitcoin that has objectionable content embedded in it.
Worth also adding that he could do this even if BIP110 were to be adopted.
Can you make a feature like Damukustr - youtube ( or social site) floating comment extension desktop app - but in damus android app for mobile users, to fight youtube video censorship ( or any social site), meaning you can't comment or reply to youtube video with a comment or video reply ( because they turn off comment, or even comment on, you can't reply with a video to expose lies and propaganda) , (or any video type social app like tiktok, Facebook etc.). Idea: when people using youtube app on Android, you can pop up a reply in damus app to reply and more importantly the ability to post/show video to reply to a video on youtube, you can show population or split screen 2 videos. People only see the lies when they see opposite opinions inform of video, text does not help because a lot people are lazy to read. This is why the authority hates Twitter because of video vs video debate type. Propaganda will die will video vs video debate. This will enable economy on Nostr - nostr zapping between people while comment and creating content. This makes nostr work in real life. This bridges and brings people from youtube and any social site to nostr. This broadens the base , number of users. This is the unique strength of nostr to foster uncencored speech and have incentive on the network.
oh man if i was on my PC this would get memed up @npub1lrn…qnw5 this is like a layup
Devs racing to deliver the latest Nostr feature https://npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z.blossom.band/a8c80ad3eca1703dc5e97b103f487eaaf51effb15a5a6bba64f2925eb3d53223.mp4
I would prefer the additional obscurity of silent payments but I also like the fact that you can now pay almost anyone without permission.
I am still trying to figure out how to get only good outbox relays out of nip66 records that will accept posts from the user or good inbox relays, etc.
Tldr centralized one and tow are gonzo. Try centralized three and four? Until morale improves and nip66 takes hold..
Lightning has great sender side privacy though. Not even the same ballgame as tracking payments onchain.
Lots to improve yet. Let me know if you want anything better.

Also FYI you are using nostr.band as inbox and outbox and that relay went bust a few months ago.
Maybe add nos.lol and nostr.mom to your public outbox and public inbox.
Since you are there, also reset your index and search relays to the defaults (just press the button)
Can you check if the Tor relays are connecting? We did a few changes on it and might have affected it.
add a onlyfans section on Amethyst, but for gay dudes
Back to reality
Ops there goes gravity
Curious, not sure how accurate this is. Though most, as in, over 50%, yea, probably.
I definitely spend at Square from the same wallets I zap with, and replenish through things like ZBD and Satsman (and you know, purchases).
ahh OK got me there... yeah that'd be nice to be able to search by geohash
that feature doesn't work for me because I'm not looking for events in my city or around. I'm going to Toronto next week and it's not possible to search for Toronto. So how can I find events in Toronto if I'm hundred or miles away.
This is so cool.
I'm envisioning a data dump thing where we just take public events directly from Eventbrite or whatever, geotag and hashtag it, and have some npub spit it out.
I think the issue is that most of the calendars are not geohash indexed :(
You just click the calendar tab, and then the drop-down select "Around me" and it'll filter based on geohash... I think
It's back to the basics season
I implemented 3 versions by now. I don't think it adds much to our use case.
can you add countries and cities. There is no way to find any calendar events in my city.
Calendars are up!

In an alternate universe, people are complaining that Amethyst has added zaps via Lightning.
See? This is a reaction I would want to react to. The gold star deserves a snicker.
