Awesome this is so awesome. My Amber was out of date! Thanks Dikaios!
Does Amber work as a remote signer via a bunker URI? What remote signer public key do I put in? Does Amber need to show Enable or Disable for listening for new connections or does that not matter? Does this involve any other servers besides a single relay (like relay.nsec.app)? #asknostr
Not bad for a first month. Providing tremendous value and can't wait to see how the platform evolves!
Thanks for doing what you do. Cool thing is I made it to Humboldt Hot Air and am listening now to DJ Jolly Giant. It's great hearing random yet excellent tracks on a Saturday morning. Hope to catch it next time!

Nostr means sharing and so I'd basically copy instagram. There the main thing is a nice looking photo roll, the pinch to zoom temporarily, multiple shots per post swiping right, and if we can swing it, reels. I also like how it suggests hashtags.
I'd appreciate it. I'm painting still life and looking for subjects. Main thing is it needs to be simple as far as shape and texture and... it's nice if it has a use in the kitchen or garden. Feel free to DM me pictures and prices!
I see Peter as one of the most pragmatic voices to come through Bitcoin. He knows Nostr is not mega-scale mainstream. You clearly do as well but here we are. I'm not even sure we can talk about Nostr-only on X. Ultimately, audience size doesn't mean anything if the people you're trying to reach aren't there. He's come to the right place to address raise this "People fixes this" point.
So happy to have finally purchased one of nostr:npub17nd4yu9anyd3004pumgrtazaacujjxwzj36thtqsxskjy0r5urgqf6950x's beautiful paintings! It just arrived and so I made this out of appreciation for his work and so that you may experience it as well!!! https://video.nostr.build/3a8388e1cc222c23c6c2c0fd2f2119b6d1474711f167078aea6474efd1084673.mp4 DOCKS ON SUNSET ✓ ORIGINAL oil painting ✓ Size: 40 x 19,5 cm ✓ Materials: Oil on board ✓ Completed: August 14, 2024 Music by Universfield #artstr #oilpainting #art
Through Vibe coding tools LLMs are mining our brains for ideas. #brainmining nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzpumhkuy2m3p58nwjuc82gmrg8ujs08m40egjqn8w8qw7pajhyejgqy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qg4waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t09uqzqaswtgf9m6f803s8ejmtpa5y8hhf9jpfzjt06nsjgswvjhm9ufyajn8yn7
Vibe coding takes a couple forms. The one I'm talking about is where you chat with a chatbot, telling it what you want in an app and it makes it. It literally gives you a link where you can see what it made, then test it and tell the bot what to fix or add. Shakespeare is the best one I've tried and knows about nostr so I've used it to make a couple apps https://analyzeyourrelays.com and https://nostrecall.com. I only did a minimum of changing some wording. The rest came from the tool when I asked for it. Does that answer your question or are you thinking of something specific?
Vibe coding could be as transformative as steam power, and it's unleashing a gold rush where the space of prospecting is ideas. Let's talk about idea men. An "idea man" is a pejorative, implying someone who only has ideas, they never get off the ground, they're stuck dreaming, and even living in those dreams without caring enough to bring them to fruition. Imagine you're someone in the 1800s who dreams of running a large textile factory but there just isn't the power nearby to run the mill. No powerful rivers, no steady winds. Steam power comes in to the picture and turns a power problem into a much smaller more manageable people problem. Vibe coding lowers the cost of coding which is a lot like increasing humanity's coding power. Now idea men who couldn't see coding their own prototype from scratch or hiring a bunch of devs and pitching the venture capital can literally type their idea into a tool like Shakespeare. They can go through revisions in hours rather than weeks and months. They now have the power to address market needs in a day.. Often I've felt like an idea man. I keep a lot of them around and always come up with new ones, but I've had too many interests to give each idea the time it needed in the pre-vibe-coding era. A few days with Shakespeare is like installing a big new steam power plant. Now each idea isn't a burden, it's an opportunity. Which leads me to ask the community.... What do you want to see? If idea people are now empowered, bring out your best armchair coding ideas and let's talk about them. Doesn't take more than a motion and a second to try an idea out. Everyone has used better and worse apps. What is something in an app, any app that you use now that could take a better form that you saw before? I'm posting this on Nostr and Nostr only but if this is such a transformative force then we should think bigger. There are billions out there dying to use what we come up with here, and by instilling out values of decentralization, freedom, and self-sovereignty we can do more with our apps than 1,000 protests and campaigns. What do you say? #vibestr

Sat down yesterday to write a page about wisdom for Nostr and this is what came out https://i.imgflip.com/8nwapo.jpg April 24th, 2024 - Wisdom, Competition and Success Nostr is a strangely wise place. It's good because it helps us appreciate what we have while sharing collective insights about the future. For example we know Nostr is small but that each platform that grows and dies gives us a chance to make it the next big one. Talk to a CEO in their early days and they tend to be idealistic wishing to democratize the net or disrupt finance but time and time again as the numbers grow they get more focused on the bottom line. The money and power displace the ideals. This is one reason we believe decentralization is so important. It places a ceiling on how much power any one entity can amass. The downside of this however is it can extend as a philosophy into everything. No relay should get too big. No client should get too much market share or strong-arm the protocol. In this way romance for freedom and decentralization can majorly slow us down. We know our principles around open source software, resiliency of decentralization and the freedom to tinker. We'll always have those. It's important however to be mindful that competition to create the next dominant platform is fierce. The wise path is to rally around what's working best today.
What I don't understand is if the Agents can take away Neo's mouth how come they can't like take away all of the hackers legs when they try to run?
Been watching the Matrix trilogy this week and finding a lot more there than when it first came out. At first I was put off by the humans as batteries thing but once you get past that, the embedded philosophy feels prescient with respect to how digital our lives have become. Always fun to see the red/blue pilling scene as well. https://i.nostr.build/5G54r.png Also enjoyed this article tying the story in with other works. https://fivebooks.com/best-books/quantum-physics-reality-jim-baggott/#book-57085 #matrix #redpill #bluepill

OMG I love the Kandinsky so much. Might have to make a print! Excellent work.
OK, feel free to DM with any questions
Thank you! Can you do the style of Matisse or Kandinsky?
Hmm, this isn't the usual lost contact list type bug then? nostrudel is showing you're following lots of people. That or you've recovered it.
