So if I make a significant and lifelong intervention of exercise, I still have 5/6 chance of dying prematurely. No thanks.

Consumers of content don't get to choose the system or protocol of the person they follow. I want to see a good client that supports many different ways of following content: RSS, Atom, Twitter, Mastodon, nostr, youtube, whatever... wi

People generally post to 5 or so relays for censorship resistance. If you want to follow them, you need to query at least 1 of those 5 relays. Nothing in the protocol specifies relay-to-relay communication, but nothing stops them either.

Rotate keys: old key signs an event indicating that it is being rolled into a new key. Multiple keys: nothing to change. Works like that now. Recover your identity: Well, if you want a well-known identity use NIP-05/NIP-35 and just cha

That is how I think of it. RSS with user-created public key identities. Lots of client fan-out to lots of relays. And a straightforward way for anyone to post (unlike RSS) Relays have to figure out how not to get smashed with too much data.

You can look someone up like bob@example.com and if he publishes his nostr information in a well-known file, you'll know where to follow him and what his public key is: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/b

They may be young and unaware of "solved technical problems," but they are full of energy, and every generation has to relearn the same things. But as for peer latency issues or easy censorship by killing nodes, I don't see i

Just mute them. Or just follow who you follow with no suggestions of other people. Or relays can have a censorship policy based on the law or community standards or anything else they want... and the people will use whatever relays work for

Diverse in this context means the different people on the council will have very different viewpoints from each other.

I think Twitter will become better when everybody who left for Gab, Mastodon, Gettr, Truth social, etc, all come back. Conversations that are more representative of what the public actually thinks (no matter how much you might hate what the

Technology is still changing fairly rapidly. Regulation is not. There will come a time when flashy new tech that everyone is drooling over will not be available in the EU due to this law.

Here's a lost way of programming: I heard of someone who typed control characters on the C64 screen that matched 6510 assembly and then ran them from out of the video buffer.

Did blocking the content save anybody's life? If so, how? If you don't know, can you even articulate a theory in which blocking content could save a life imminently threatened? I don't dispute that a life was threatened and

In fact the speech/threats is evidence against the threatener. Let them hang themselves.

I don't believe rhetoric is ever a threat to human life so I disagree with this move by cloudflare. Even if illegal credible targeted threats are made, the threat to human life is the threatener, not the content of the speech. Oh, and

This is only true among mastodon servers that connect to each other. As I recall, most servers would not talk to gab's servers. Further, once you pick a server, if you are kicked off, you lose all your followers because they are follo

While I would love many of those changes to happen, I won't be holding my breath. Seems to me the odds Apple will pull out of Europe based on this are pretty high. The compliance cost of these changes must be astoundingly high. Fines b
