“Watch what people are cynical about, and one can often discover what they lack.” George S. Patton

"The vast majority of speculators, who buy when prices are elevated and sell when the markets falls, do not feel nervous and fearful upon acting; they feel relieved. They do not know they have actually increased their chances of losing or reduced their chances of gaining because unconsciously they have acted to reduce the discomforting feeling of missing out on gains or risking losses. Because their risk actually increases by both sets of actions, we may confidently conclude that such behavior is non-rational. If you want to meet speculators who consciously take on risk, seek out the few who buy when others are panicking or sell short when the crowd is giddy. On taking the action, they will be nervous if not downright fearful, because the conscious portion of their minds understands they are taking on risk, and the unconscious portion is screaming not to do it." - Robert R. Prechter

Being generous with zaps. Zap frequently and small enough amounts to keep the volume up. Breathe in, breathe out.

#[0] We need a way to see the feed from a single relay, without changing the client's general relay configuration. This would allow participation in niche, closed communities, while still having global.

Wen 1-click zaps

Need a rational incentive structure for paid relays. Revenue should be a subscription model, not a one-time fee. Need a way to schedule ongoing systematic LN payments.

♥️ signal not noise ⚡ nostr.

What's a good web link to intro people to nostr?

@vitor thanks for the recent stuff. Custom zap amounts are a game changer - soooo fun.

I love being able to follow who I want when I want. None of this "you can't add any more follows" BS.

#[0] any plans to maintain a deeper cache of notes and events? I.e. farther back in time. For instance, if I search "Snowden" I get nothing, I assume because he hasn't posted in a while. Or is it more appropriate for relays to govern stuff like this? Also, shouldn't a search, at a minimum, be searching all follow and followers profiles? ♥️
