I'm listening to Andreas Antonopoulos on Rogan from 2016, and it's like listening to something from the future: bitcoin backed debit cards, openbazaar's decentralized marketplace, plug and play VR. Even the ads are better - the tracking tiles were advertised as having crash detection so you could know whether a loved one was in a car accident. Meanwhile, in the "future", we have buy now pay later, Temu, and lagging bitcoin adoption. What happened?

Just published a new NIP with yet another approach to push notifications:

Add NIP 9a for push notifications by staab · Pull Request #2194 · nostr-protocol/nips

This is modeled somewhat after MIP 05 by @JeffG , but simpler and less coupled to the marmot use case.

This is pretty clever:

Flotilla 1.6.3 is out — this is a bugfix and quality of life release, which is good because it turns out there were a lot of bugs. Changelog: * Fix scroll down button z index * Hide tooltips on mobile * Sort comments ascending * Make video embeds rounded * Fix ProfileMultiSelect styling * Accept hex pubkeys/npubs/nprofiles in ProfileMultiSelect * Tweak room edit form design * Report pending signer to user * Update default relays * Fix chat list responsiveness * Fix memory leak, notification badge not showing * Improve space join flow * Fix opening images in fullscreen dialog * Add support for blocked relays * Add login with key if no signer is detected * Publish default relay selections on signup And especially for @hzrd149 I added AUTH policy settings, which allow you to avoid authenticating with the entirety of the nostr network. Available now on web and Zapstore, in the pipeline for Android and iOS.

@KoalaSat I'm looking into using pokey for push notifications in flotilla, but the default outbox model paradigm isn't really going to work. Have you considered using intents or something to allow other applications to register notification configurations? E.g., flotilla wants to get notified of all kind 9s on relay X, sends that via intent to pokey, user approves, and pokey broadcasts those events. This would be great for UX, and would cover advanced use cases.

I've been using OpenCode Zen with Opus 4.5 the last few days at @Alex Gleason's insistence, but I've found that it's way more "hot" than Claude. I have to keep a very tight leash to keep it from going off the rails with ill-considered refactors. The way that Claude Code eliminated this behavior is why I finally started having success with vibe coding. Anyone know how to turn the temperature down a little?

Whoever runs nos.lol, you should remove nip 77 from your supported_nips instead of return errors when negentropy is used

@verbiricha I sent you a DM, we should catch up

Re-posting to a new timezone: I'm still looking for reviews of the pomade protocol — also, if you're interested in using this project or hosting a signer please let me know. View quoted note →

Here's another demo of Pomade, this time integrated in Flotilla! I still need eyes on the protocol, so please give it a read and let me know your thoughts:

Am I the only person who struggles to figure out what the slug of a model is given the name? How am I supposed to know that `MiniMax M2.1` should be referred to as `opencode/minimax-m2.1` ?
