Nostr needs our collective attention! I have been studying #nostr for about 3 years now. I do believe it will help with the adoption of #bitcoin at large. It basically has the same philosophy, and in some abstract ways, the technology identical to #bitcoin but for communication and messaging. What does #nostr need? 1) user experience for users 2) user experience and ease of setting up relays (equivalent to BTC nodes) 3) incentive for relay holders (equivalent to BTC miners) 4) improved infrastructure (equivalent to BTC rigs) A lot of focus on clients by amazing projects like @damusapp @makeprisms @primal_app (200, 600, 3K followers & 2 of them not even verified X accounts!!!) 5) And lastly, #nostr needs champions who can speak, promote, and educate people. We have been amazing people in the BTC realm, from OGs like @aantonop @balajis @adam3us @maxkeiser to new ones like @saylor @Swan @coryswan @saifedean @jackmallers @mattkratter and a slew of other credible sources. #nostr misses that and needs more that. The majority of gatherings and events around it are technical. Most of the focus is on #freespeech but that is partial value of #nostr. In tech and network stacks, messaging is so foundational and goes way beyond users talking together; it's about systems communicating together. #nostr does both communication and messaging admirably. I am thinking of creating something (it could be a task force, foundation, panel, etc) that accelerates the adoption of #nostr, and partially to accelerate the adoption of #bitcon. If you haven't looked into #nostr, study it the same way most of us studied #bitcoin. It could be seen as a natural extension of #bitcoin. I don't have a plan yet, but if you are interested, DM me. We'll figure something out. 🙏

This life is fucking amazing. I'm so grateful to be alive, with all of you on this miracle of a planet. Oh and I'm sorry if I fuck things up sometimes. I'm a flawed human. But I promise to do whatever I can to try to add some more understanding and love to this world. After the world leader convos I get attacked intensely by all sides, and many disparate online communities. It has led to some really low points for me mentally. But I don't matter. I'm listening. I'll do better. And I'll try to find the strength to do more of them, always with rigor and backbone, seeking to truly understand. And despite accusations, I do extremely high amounts of research, sometimes 100+ hours for a conversation. Ask many of my previous guests. But when I come to the table, I put all that aside, and make it all about the other person. I don't ever try to sound smart. I know the vastness of my ignorance. But I'm trying. Sometimes I do fuck up and sound like a douche, or do something incredibly cringe. And I hate myself right after. But I'd rather fail and embarrass myself a million times, than not do what my heart says is right. And besides world leaders, historians, CEOs, engineers, etc, this year I want to travel the world and talk to a lot more everyday people on and off the mic. This is something I've wanted to do for a long time. Anyway this is written while on I'm on a 10 mile run, probably procrastinating, since to type I have to walk and not run 🤣 But I did just get stopped by a super smart and kind girl who works at a humanoid robotics company here. And she asked if she can give me a hug to thank me for being me. Sometimes the universe sends you a message that even a dumb dude like me can almost hear. I really needed that today. Thank you for the hug and the kindness 🙏 I'm just hoping she was real and I didn't just imagine that 🤣 Then again if I went full crazy might as well enjoy it! Back to the run. I love you all! ❤️

@VanJones68 Was in Iran for more than a week, used a VPN like most Iranians, worked fine and they also have their own internal Internet infrastructure. Trust the- "dead Gaza baby" guy, to push this drivel at a time where U.S and Israeli bombing has killed over 2500 Iranians. Shame on you.

When you woke up this morning, your internet worked. You scrolled, you searched, you shared. But 90 million Iranians woke up — again — to total darkness. Their government has now imposed the longest nationwide internet blackout ever recorded in any country. Almost 40 consecutive days. That should alarm every one of us. Iran’s information blackout is a weapon against its own people. When governments can flip a switch and immediately disappear 90 million people from the internet, the rest of us lose our eyes and ears too.

Disgraceful! The US/Israel just bombed Sharif University in Tehran. This is not only Iran's best university, but also a top 100 global university in the field of Civil Engineering. It has also been a center of student opposition to the Iranian gov And Trump just bombed it...

Oracle executives are getting DEATH THREATS after that 6 AM email massacre and Larry Ellison just hired Blackwater-level private security 30,000 workers butchered via automated email while Oracle posts $6.13 BILLION in quarterly profits I'm hearing Oracle leadership is now working from "undisclosed locations" because former employees are showing up at headquarters with printed copies of their termination emails Sources saying the Redwood City campus looks like a military compound. Armed guards checking IDs. Parking garage access restricted. Executive floor completely locked down. Oracle spent more on executive protection this quarter than they'll pay in severance to 30,000 families The same company that automates human termination emails can't automate executive safety Larry Ellison's yacht has three security boats following it. Safra Catz hasn't been photographed in public since the bloodbath. Meanwhile former Oracle workers are posting TikToks outside Ellison's $300 million Malibu compound One terminated engineer drove 800 miles from Austin just to stand at the gate with a sign reading "I BUILT YOUR CLOUD INFRASTRUCTURE FOR 12 YEARS" Oracle's AI algorithms can eliminate 30,000 jobs in milliseconds but can't predict when desperate people stop playing by corporate rules If you're still at Oracle, your executives are literally hiding from you behind armed security while counting the money they made from destroying your career The revolution isn't coming through the front door anymore. It's coming through the fucking walls.

Posting this video proves nothing. Trump GREW UP in New York Jewry, his father was OBSESSED with fitting in with the Jews and especially Chabad. He’s always been a Zionist. Many think he’s a convert as well.

Look at how she dresses. None of our business. But in Iran she’d be stoned to death. Yet she has the chutzpah to live in America, enjoy its freedoms, and curse out our great nation. Great that Rubio had her arrested as an enemy agent

Wow! Trump tells Fox News that the US "sent a lot of guns to the Iranian protesters, we sent guns through the Kurds, I think the Kurds kept them." Trump reportedly said the weapons were sent after the Iranian gov started killing protesters in large numbers. Not sure that makes a lot of sense since the Internet was completely shut down at the time, and the US had very limited insight into what was happening. I suspect he misspoke: The weapons were sent through Kurdish groups BEFORE the January 8-9 clampdown. Either way, this admission by Trump rewrites the history of these dark days. My suspicion is that the US and Israel had armed specific groups that infiltrated Iran but could not operate until large protests had erupted. When that happened - both organically and with the encouragement of Reza Pahlavi - these groups were activated and began using systematic violence against the state apparatus as well as civilian targets (banks, mosques etc). The vast majority of Iranian protesters had nothing to do with or even awareness of this US/Israeli armed group. They were protesting peacefully. But the Iranian government appears to have made little distinction between the two and killed armed and peaceful protesters alike on a large scale - probably around 7,000.

🚨⚡️ A bizarre incident at the German Championship: Norwegian chess champion Magnus Carlsen, with a wide smile, agreed to take a "selfie" with Kazakhstani player Alua Norman's phone before the second round. But the surprise? As soon as the photo was done, Carlsen rushed to file a complaint with the arbiter! The arbiter confiscated the player's phone in accordance with the regulations.. 🤡🇳🇴

Secretary Marco Rubio
Until recently, Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter were green card holders living lavishly in the United States. Afshar is the niece of deceased Iranian Major General Qasem Soleimani. She is also an outspoken supporter of the Iranian regime who celebrated attacks on Americans and referred to our country as the "Great Satan." This week, I terminated both Afshar and her daughter's legal status and they are now in ICE custody, pending removal from the United States. The Trump Administration will not allow our country to become a home for foreign nationals who support anti-American terrorist regimes.

tone deaf on who started or even naming them. the same as other EU except Spain. Your country, the birthplace of Hitler nonetheless, made a choice not to provide its bases. they should do the same. GCC countries are weasels and their hatred towards Persia, Iran and Persians dates back to hundreds of years! We have poetries, expressions, proverbs, and epics depicting that hatred. today, you see it in action.

I had a call with the Foreign Minister of Iran Abbas @araghchi . We discussed the situation in Iran and the spiralling escalation in the Middle East. Diplomatic solutions and de-escalation are urgently needed. I emphasized the need to end the strikes on neighbouring countries and restore freedom of navigation in the Strait Hormuz especially regarding the humanitarian aspect of global food security with a focus on fertilizers and other essential goods. Regarding the Iranian nuclear program Austria supports any diplomatic way forward that leads to a new agreement and full cooperation with the @iaeaorg . In times like this it is important to maintain dialogue.
