Funny to see people mention nostr https://satellite.earth/ (Satellite nostr client) https://nsite.run/ (literally static sites on nostr)

I laughed when I saw this because two years ago I built a nostr client called Satellite! https://satellite.earth/

Tech is the exception that proves the rule, rather, advancing so fast that the concomitant price deflation outpaced inflation seen in other sectors. There's an interesting chart that shows how inflation has been distributed very unequa

Indeed. Every time a special interest gets funded, everyone else holding that currency loses purchasing power. The power to print money arbitrarily is (quite objectively) the to power to levy taxes without going through the democratic proce

My understanding is that everyone agrees that expanding the money supply under conditions of economic growth is necessary to avoid deflation. The contention centers on whether price deflation is a good or bad thing. If you're a "g

As technological advancement drives increased productivity, purchasing power that would have otherwise accrued to the not-asset-owning class in the form of price deflation is siphoned off by central planners who would like a way to levy tax

So I've been building of one of the nostr web clients ( https://satellite.earth ) full time since December last year - I agree partially with all these points and will try to add something from my perspective of being perha

Even if that is what he meant, I still don't think it's correct. To speak of a "mechanism of action" is necessarily to speak about a model of Nature that you, an observer, have created. Natural phenomena exist empiricall

> Linden was emphatic about how science requires a mechanism of action I don't think this is correct. Science is based on empiricism. Of course we'd like to understand the mechanism of action, but it's not strictly require

That's a fair point, and most of the people on nostr are aware of the need to diversify. In fact, as of last week you can create Reddit-like sub-communities on nostr with rules like "no crypto content" which should help a lot

I think it looks really clean and it's awesome that you're actually building something instead of just complaining. Growing a community is going to be a huge challenge. I'm working on something similar, but based on Nostr. Go

You're still looking at this from a legalistic perspective.

Dangerous speech?

On the contrary, I think there is a huge demand. I can find enjoyable community offline. Speaking for myself, freedom from censorship is in fact the main thing I want in a social network. Your values might differ.

Nostr is the real deal. I first heard about nostr last in November when Twitter tried to ban it. There's an incredible dev ecosystem developing — so much so that I decided to rebuild Satellite ( https://satellite.earth ) the
