@Fabian have you thought about adding a dropdown on a person’s profile that lets you add them to one or more of your lists? I just tried after making a new list and saw someone I wanted to add to it

Let’s say you attach an npub to some computation. That’s 33% of what a DVM is. How will people find out about it? Will you post a kind 0 profile like humans do? Or do a kind 31990 announcement in NIP-89? Now you’re at 66% of what makes a DVM. How will people or services use your computation? Maybe you decide you need a special kind of format for the input to the computation, so you pick, oh I don’t know, kind 5123 and a spec of how the input data should be laid out. Now you have 100% of what a DVM is. DVMs are the natural extension to having paid computational services behind npubs. They aren’t unnecessarily complex, quite the opposite. View quoted note →

Have some life transition stuff happening, DVMDash updates may be slow coming in the near term. If you are using it and run into a problem, DM me or post an issue in the GitHub, and I’ll see if I can quickly address it. We’ve crossed the 80k threshold for DVM Jobs being created and folks are working on DVM chains. Exciting things coming! https://dvmdash.live/metrics/

Working my way through “Build a Large Language Model from Scratch" and the publisher (Manning.com) has a feature that is basically @Highlighter , called ‘livebook’ although the interface for showing highlights isn’t quite as nice as highlighter.com. First time I’m seeing something like highlighter not on Nostr. Highlighter UX for textbooks or other dense reading material where people can have side discussions will be amazing.

Relay devs and runners - do you limit massive filter subscriptions? Is it terrible to subscribe on a filter for kind 3 events for say 100,000 npubs? Has anyone written a guide on relay filter etiquette? Or should I ask for what I need and if relays stop responding / block me, I submit smaller filters? tagging a few folks that I know develop and run relays #asknostr @utxo the webmaster 🧑‍💻 @PABLOF7z @Mazin

If an npub has no follower from within my ‘n’ degrees of followers, why am I ever seeing it in my Nostr client? Is this just a compute problem? If so, let’s start running DVMs to solve this. Does such a simple solution not work? Let’s say you are brand new to Nostr. For you to get connected, you’d need to: 1. post a few high quality notes (anything that’s not spam) 2. follow people you like 3. wait for one npub who has followers to follow you. As soon as 3 happens, you’re good to go. If a spam account gets past this part, you just need a few people to report them and then your client shows you that should be skeptical of this person. The question then becomes, how do you find new people to follow when there is a flood of potential fake profiles waiting to be discovered alongside new real people? Best case solution, you meet anyone in real life who has a Nostr account and they follow you. Worse alternative is bootstrapping from legacy social media. There will probably be markets in the future selling you access to Nostr networks (pay me to follow you and add you into my WoT). You could be anonymous this way. Maybe AI search tools will be able to pick out some authentic profiles just by the content they post. Moral of the story is - the incorrect solution here is to KYC or scan eyeballs for “proof of human”.
