You know you're a computer nerd when you need to use your desktop for updating banking passwords so you can use the browser dev console and inject JavaScript into the banks website to get around the 'prevent-copy-pasting' flag on the passwords fields. I like my Base64 encoded SHA256 hash as a password, thank you very much! Now to get that into my phone...

Step one: let the American people keep more of their paychecks. Step two: initiate tariffs to cover the lost tax revenue, but only after eliminating waste spending Step three: companies raise prices on imported goods due to tariffs or choose to manufacture in America. Step four: Americans have more money because of tax elimination, but spend more money because of increased pricing downstream of tariffs. Step five: because of lower taxes, companies can hire more people and/or lower prices, which means greater value added to the economy and balancing down the tariff price increases Step six: more people in the workforce and lower taxes means local economies see a big boost since more value, and thus more money, is made but doesn't have to leave via taxation. Step seven: the greater opportunity gives young people hope, and they enter the workforce with greater zeal, further increasing the economy Step eight: the greater economy makes the tariff price hikes not feel too bad. Step nine: people marry and make more babies because hope is restored, and the cycle of prosperity continues.

Does Nostr have a good number of crunchy, traditional, and/or Christian/Catholic SAHMs here? If we don't, what can Nostr offer them that Facebook and Insta don't? For one thing, no censorship of "vaccine hesitancy" posts.

Why is my nip05 broken? When I manually go to the /.well-known/nostr.json, it's correct 🤔 #askNostr #Nostrdev

Thinking about scaling again. Side chains with their Merkle tree roots entangled with on-chain settlements. The whole side chain doesn't need to be stored on any node, only that incoming side chain transactions come with proof of funds with a root-branch-leaf of that particular source. The node will then incorporate that transaction and relay to other nodes, continually pruning the tree as leaves go empty. It makes for a heavier transmitted transaction message, but a basically zero storage footprint. Downside is needing to re-sign transactions that don't go through if it doesn't get propagated quickly between root publishes. The actual transaction can get thrown away once the tree is updated, so the node only needs Bitcoin and the side chain's root. Haven't thought through cross-tree and L1-L2 transactions, yet. #scaling #Bitcoin #L2 #sideChain

Is there a recipes Nostr client? My wife was just expressing the frustration off the ad hell and dumb life story blogs that make most recipe sites near unusable. #askNostr
