ME ME ME ME ME ME

Weird, will take a look at this
THIS IS GONNA BE MY 69TH COLLECTED BADGE AHHHHHHHHH

Charge your phone. Geez.
hahahaha this is perfect. no more badges for you ser.
dis is what happens when I donβt charge it overnight /: instead put it as far away from my sleeping space as possible inside a drawer bc of all the radiation vids the YouTube algo has been feeding me lately
@πΎππ πΎπππππ you are untrustworthyβ¦ canβt keep your phone charged so your social credit score has dipped accordingly
LITERALLY!
IVE REACHED MY FINAL FORM!
πππππ

Youβre literally glowing orange. You already got the radiation bug. Now just become a super hero. Simple.
whenever I hear glow my mind automatically lands on this meme π

π§π€hmmm. Guy cannot keep his phone charged, what else is he up to??

Sorry about that, I think I know what's wrong, will fix asap
Nothing good Iβm sure of it!
I shall ask for forgiveness

I just #zapped the note now with that sats amount. I am waiting for that super rare badge. Thanks
the normies are gonna love this one, this could get the ball rolling
sent!
Nice one
@HoloKat &
@verbiricha !
Very cool :) I'm crafting some badges right now... is the badge creation/rarity processing load put on your server or does it run locally off mine? Chose to go Epic and wondering how long it'll take ππ
Once again, this is cool :)
should be fixed now, looks like it was not able to find your profile badges event but should show now regardless if it's found or not.
amazing, let me give it a go right now π€π
When scrolling down, some of the badges appear 3 times a row, and I'm not sure why that is π€
Karnage out here beautifying nostr one project at a time.
LFG Tigs, the PoW is calculated on your computer in a very naive way rn so it will take a VERY long time for Epic and Legendary. In the future we could use a paid PoW provider,
@α΄Κα΄ α΄
α΄α΄α΄Κ α΄κ° α΄Κα΄α΄α΄ suggested this and I would gladly implement it client side.
Bug, my bad
π
Great job man
Ah I see! By *very* long time are we talking ~24hours? I've got a fairly decent CPU so I don't mind crunching the PoW. Cool you got my PC doing the calcs... couldn't even tell :D
PoW Provider could be good, fingers crossed badges go wild!
That's okay, thank you for everything you do π€
lol, using AVX2 hash grinding is not difficult to set up, and if you want to go to a little more effort you can turn an old S9 into a hash grinder
unfortunately i think that once there's money in it, your little antispam mechanism is toast
Not sure how long it will take tbh, perhaps several days
it's a funny thing... it can be 5 seconds and it can be a week
i was vanity mining for my current npub and i'd probably run it for 2 or 3 days and then one day after i'd given up for a week i run it 5 minutes and bam!
it's hard to explain how it works but "a few days" "average" are quite vague compared to how it really works - "average" is the peak of the bell curve and that thin edge can mean literally weeks or seconds
I looked into this, bitcoin miners are not designed to calculate a single sha256 sum so I don't think they can be adapted for nostr POW.
And yes, but you just need a difficulty adjustment and all is good.
Time to get a target difficulty is geometrically distributed which means that as the variance increases at nearly the same rate as the expected time as you increase the difficulty
there is zero guarantees about where your solution will fall, it just is probably going to fall around the middle of the bell curve for your target partial hash collision
my research and experiments with this kind of process show there is ways to make the curve taller and the edges lower (decreasing variance) but i don't think this can apply very easily to an irregular timing system like you have with nostr note ID hashes, the methods i discovered had to do with target variation over time, one that worked was a doubling series with averaging across multiple targets and another was the use of integrals, and i have read more about PID controllers and possibly derivatives can improve the timing of distribution if the integral has a noise filter added to it
prior to my foray into this area i knew about the principle of "mass action" in chemistry and it is also a similar thing that is the basis of statistical probability and the gaussian distribution (bell curve) but the only thing that improves timing other than varying your target in response to historical timing is increasing the number of attempts at finding a solution
so, i'm just telling you this because reality is not going to be what you expect, the numbers are too small to get such smooth predictable results
This seems completely wrong to me. How could it be anything other than Geometric? I don't see how an experiment would even be necessary, it is self-evident.
If hash functions are good than doing one hash will not help with the next, which will mean each is an independent trial from an identically disteibuted bernouli distribution with p = 1/2^target_difficulty
where am I wrong?
Proof of Work Badges are here. π

Profile zap ok? I canβt zap note on Damus β¦
I guess there's still something wrong with the badge event, I received it on badges.page but still not showing on my client profile(Amethyst)
For sure!

Sent! Thank you ππ«

Can it be integrated with other nostr clients like memestr? We would love our users to have certain badges based on days of login etc.
Of course, the app just implements NIP-58 so is interoperable with other nostr apps. You can issue badges for your users and they'll show up in my site too.
Same here.
Will take a closer look soon, sorry for the inconvenience
It's alright mate, thanks
