It’s a shame WorldID tightly coupled their cool proof of humanity tech with this crypto scam $WLD
In what world do you need a token to get this proof of humanity system working? Evil sickos fr.
Nostr should be famous for decentralized proof of humanity. No reason we can’t post ZK Proofs on here.
Follow lists should be private.
Discovery can happen by submitting your private list to a discovery service. With magic math.
Ironically that would be more discovery than most apps have that have totally public follow lists.
The second time in the last couple weeks. Pack it up. Give the investors their money back.

@utxo the webmaster 🧑💻 do you know any specific relays that have NIP-29 relay chat rooms? I’d like to test that out
In the future, public notes will only be for identity related things. Reputation, trust scoring, etc.
I think literally everything else is going to be private on here.
@Derek Ross In the post composition box, when I double tap on a word, I can’t drag the text selectors right or left beyond what I double tapped. Text selection seems to be the entire thing, or one word at a time. Ditto iOS app
@Derek Ross @MK Fain I’m getting stuck on the “save your secret key” screen on iOS app. Idk what it wants me to do. I unhide, I copy, I leave the app and come back, nothing works.
LinkedIn incentivizes people to be lifeless shills so they can get jobs. It’s awful, but I get it.
Twitter incentivizes people to be lifeless, rage-baiting shills to directly earn money. Nikita and Elon are fucking idiots. Genuinely morons.
This could be built on Nostr quite easily.
Discovery and Reputation for human and AI services would each be an event type.
Service Discovery would just advertise the price, capabilities, etc.
Reputation would roll up a bunch of review events that include a proof of the output work as well as a proof of the payment that took place.
Your bot or you need help from an AI or human expert? Query the discovery note types and find some that match. Sort by reputation. Engage

Did you know that it was very common to burn letters after reading them?
We have this idea that handwritten letters were these treasured things. Sometimes, but often not.
“Palantir bot, flag all accounts that have wrong-think or extremist content. Flag all of the people that follow them. Track their every move and build an ongoing case against them. Contact the FBI when the case reaches appropriate strength threshold.”
“If we add enough features to a client, it becomes an everything app.”
No… an Everything App does very few things actually. It just does them really well.
There is no everything app on nostr yet.
The government *could* read your letters, but they promise that they won’t. And they definitely inspect the “metadata” of your letters. Hold lights up to them, check for dangerous things, etc.

Why doesnt @jack just pay someone to make the Everything App on Nostr?
All this money being thrown at Underwatestr Baskestr Weavingstr and it’s doing literally nothing in terms of adoption. The race is on and Nostr is losing.

There’s a fork in the road happening. Top-down solutions to Nostr problems are arriving.
Where are the bottom-up solutions?
- Quantum proof secure private communication. We have some Nostr things in flight.
- Trade. What happened to the diagon alley and marketplace solutions on Nostr?
- proof of humanity. Nostr has nothing at the moment. Web of Trust isn’t enough. We need to enhance WOT with things like physical IRL device scanning added in to the mix to strengthen trust rankings. Or we outsource to Iris scanner companies and use ZK Proofs.
Is this legit or is it an “industry plant”? Project came out of nowhere for me.
