Looks like if you want a job in east bay these days, you must be able to speak "NLP tokens" directly. At this rate, thought crime will be impossible within the next 3 version updates.

speaking of plagiarism - I just copied nostr-crdt to a new repo - changed the name to y-ndk - (yjs is for crdts and ndk is for other stuff) - used ndk instead of nostr-tools - removed typescript - tested for less than 5 minutes here is a very dry 5 minute walkthrough

- An attempt to get nostr-crdt working with ndk. It doesn't work, but feels like it will work next week.

Ireland just took over the top traffic source at cafe-society.news. I hope these people are Irish Catholics rejecting whatever is coming across their government approved wire, but there's not a way to tell. Oh, and look at you China!

People who predict that bitcoin will replace the corporate treasuries of the world, real estate, securities and be worth all of them together should consider the possibility that bitcoin will just remove (not replace) the need for collateralized assets to secure payments. My sincere hope is that bitcoin takes over all global and local transactions while the dollar price still goes down from here.

...or maybe I'm just a dumb. I've given it an honest effort, both as a software developer using LLMs as a copilot, and as a web master using the creative output of LLMs as a marketing/SEO trick. As of early 2024,I regret every minute I've spent trying to get LLMs to do something useful. Any further research on my part toward LLMs can only be credited to Stockholm Syndrome.

cafe-society.news currently lets you train an algorithm to filter a feed, then copy paste your algorithm to other devices or other feeds. cafe-society.news is opposed to paying for servers in order to spend more on eponymous developer expenses, such as food and rent. y-nostr (currently hypothetical) would take the current copy paste workflow to a nostr event hosted workflow. Not an ipfs hosted workflow nor a google docs hosted workflow. If people disagree with this approach, please state your reasoning.

looks like nostr will be sponsoring 4/20 on hippie hill this year. Same time, same hill. Any questions? let me know. https://www.sfgate.com/cannabis/article/organizers-cancel-sf-420-festival-hippie-hill-19369272.php

After cafe-society.news gets nostr-crdt plumbing set up for sharing ml models, it will move on to making predictions with some sort of homomorphic encryption capable approach. ML trainer users will not need to publish their model to make money, and prediction users will not need to share their raw data to get predictions. nucypher and zama use Ethereum (I don't know if that means they work on rootstock.) I'm just some dude, but I'd like to see something compatible with lightning payments, which I'm pretty sure an ethereum contract is not. I'd love some comments pls.

- https://www.npmjs.com/package/yjs - y-indexeddb - y-websocket - y-webrtc - y-nostr <— this project coming soon, needs funding: How: The existing nostr-crdt has the functionality, but is broken since a recent upgrade of nostr-tools. - modify the code in nostr-crdt to work with current nostr-tools and repackage as y-nostr. - swap out nostr-tools for NDK. NDK comes with a best in class approach to security, and we think NDK is probably up to the task. Developer Background: - 1999 - modified the Melissa virus to become one of the first commercial email marketing engines. - 2000 - as a sales dude, wrote a vt-100 terminal scraper to harvest the Insight Corporation open/orphan orders. Successfully traded resulting lead lists colleagues for favors and food. - 2013 - launched ripple-bandit.com the worlds first dice address on the ripple payment platform. - 2016 - created blocktool, a tool to denormalize utxo transactions to a corporate analytics friendly format. - 2019 - partnered with some dude from Nike - 2nd place in the Portland Blockstack hackathon - dice address for stacks this time. - 2023 - launched git-nostr a pure shell script program to replace git-ssb (secure scuttlebutt) - allows hosting cryptography projects in the EU. - 2024 - flat broke, need work soon. Please send money or direct me to an appropriate grant application. - cole@getalby.com

I vaguely recall the W administration talking heads saying "don't change presidents in the middle of a war!" Willing to wager we hear that old saw soon.
