My kids and I are on our third lap through Harry Potter. We’re on book two of Narnia and book one of Artemis Fowl. It’s almost painful to read Narnia out loud. The children and other characters speak so properly and a lot of it is dated. Wish it could be rewritten from today’s perspective. Through that’s basically The Magicians and I’m NOT reading that to them 😂

I would say I’m a technology fan in the same way others are sports fans, i’m not necessarily good at it, but I will go out of my way to learn a little more about it just for fun

Okay I can log in, post, view lessons etc, yoyostr.com is basically at minimal viable product level. But obviously still needs work. I need to test the badge awarding system for demonstrating skills, add industry news/company news, maybe events and clubs too

Can a domain name be owned by an NPUB? Or is there some equivalent aside from just having QR codes to your profile everywhere?

Nostr makes me think of ethereum dapps but nostr isn’t trying to be a token as well as a utility. I think it works better that way. The end result is decentralized network, no dev team that can switch out the system core by decree, and I don’t have the fear of messing up with something that costs a lot to tinker with in order to experiment with building on it.

If technology is a bell that can’t be unrung, why do so many sci-fi and fantasy stories imagine the opposite? A human colony crosses the stars, settles on a new planet, and somewhere along the way forgets its own origins. The machines rust into scenery. History thins into rumor. New myths grow in the gaps and people come to believe the world has always been this way. Why does that pattern show up so often? What is it in us that keeps returning to the idea that progress can be misplaced, or misremembered, or quietly rewritten into legend?

If ChatGPT had a most stated phrases leaderboard, “that’s rare” would be in the top five

If I remember right there are nostr marketplaces out there (or that could be built) and am wondering how shipping is handled? Been daydreaming about how you could go from someone paying for the listing in sats to the seller generating a shipping label in the app but am not sure how that would work. Maybe the app could integrate with existing shipping systems that support api and the user handles all the setup for that themselves?

In the middle of making a system work smoothly all I feel like is: I’ve made myself a series of roadblocks or hurdles
