I was thinking about publishing Pokemon on Nostr. I figured it should have a "gen" tag, like ["gen", "1']. But Pokemon generations are always written in Roman numerals (I guess people do think about Rome every day), then I thought about how funny it would be to have tags like ["gen", "vii"], forcing people to have to import some Roman numeral parsing library and to call a function like: new RomanNumeral(str).toNumber() 🤣

Look how much crap is blocked by just requiring the user to have a kind 0 on the relay already. That's like 90% of it.


Friendship ended with #SQLite. Now #PGlite is my best friend.

#Ditto
I forked #pglite, learned about the Postgres wire protocol, fixed how it serializes query parameters (
), deployed my branch to npm and got pglite working in #Ditto.

GM. Somebody is hammering my relay with follow events.


Haven't had time to do it yet, but aside from keyword filtering I think a good solution is to block replies posted within the same second as the original post. A real human couldn't reply within 1 second. Yes they can just add a sleep into the script, but it adds a layer to the spam filter. At the intersection of all the mitigations, spam will be reduced.

Do you think the truth is found in Tim Pool, The Washington Post, or something in between?
The pandemic made people retarded. If you're coughing on an airplane you should be wearing a mask, but people aren't willing to do it because they feel lied to and afraid it makes them look cucked. Sometimes critical thinking requires you to side with something you disagree with in alternative scenarios.
Awesome end to the Amsterdam trip to meet up with @Sebastix at the site of #Nostrdam!
