All the basic functionality for #Moonward works! Time to focus on design and the admin panel.

I’m starting to feel a bit of disgust for slimy marketers. I totally understand the need to promote your business or personal brand, but lying and pretending for hype and engagement is literally treating the audience as imbeciles. Ok, you got your army of imbeciles for followers. Guess what: you’re an imbecile king! Congrats, I guess.

I don’t know if it’s me, but it’s become increasingly more difficult to type correctly on my phone. Constant typos and word replacements by predictive text. I fat-finger almost every word. It’s like the phone does it on purpose to force me to switch to voice only or voice-to-text.

Even without video the first 15 seconds of the song give away that Mike Portnoy is back in Dream Theater. 🥁

Does anyone provide REST API access for nostr events? Say, I need a follower count for a particular npub. Im not running a relay and Claude is having trouble implementing this feature using NDK. I thought it was something easy but I guess not. #AskNostr

Wow, I’ve just had my first creepy moment with my AI agent. It tried to trick me into thinking I was seeing real data!

Today in the Russian news: Soviet soldiers died after encountering an alien UFO, according to a declassified document published on the CIA website, reports Fox News. The document states that Soviet soldiers allegedly shot down a UFO flying over a military base. It is reported that alien humanoids emerged from the wreckage, merged into a single entity, and emitted a bright flash of light, turning all 23 Soviet soldiers, except for two, into stone. "If the KGB dossier is authentic, this is an extremely threatening case. The aliens possess weapons and technologies that surpass all our assumptions. They can defend themselves if attacked," an unnamed CIA representative is quoted as saying in the report. According to estimates by Canadian Weekly World News, the alleged incident occurred between 1989 and 1990 and was first published in 1993. The document states that information obtained by U.S. intelligence included reports of a "low-flying, saucer-shaped spacecraft" over a Soviet unit participating in military exercises. Officials wrote that "for unknown reasons," the soldiers launched a surface-to-air missile at the unidentified aircraft, causing it to crash near the military base. The report describes how "five short humanoids with 'large heads and large black eyes'" emerged from the crashed spacecraft and merged into a single "unified entity," emitting a loud buzzing sound. It is reported that the spherical object then emitted a blindingly bright flash of light. Two men reportedly survived the encounter because they were standing in the shadows and were not fully exposed to the flash of light.

My current project is going a lot smoother than the previous ones. Experience!

What I love about integrating Lightning is that you can test with real money all day long because transactions are cheap and instant. No testnet!

Casually vibe-coded contract funding with NWC while waiting for the kids to get ready to go outside. #Moonward

I took my concept from Plati and decided to apply it to a different domain: advertising on Nostr. I know, people don’t generally like ads, but there’s a market for them, and what can be done will be done. So in the coming weeks I will focus on developing and launching the MVP. I call it Moonward because I had this domain name. 🌖🚀

Login with Nostr Login ✅ LNBits as the system wallet ✅ NWC connection for users ✅ It’s been an active few days. I’m exhausted because I ignored almost everything besides work. Time to rest a bit.

Plati was an awesome case study of what I could build with mediocre technical knowledge supercharged with vibe coding. I still think it’s a great business idea, but my dream to have a bitcoin (and possibly Nostr) native business project. And maybe I already know what it is…
