Now that you’ve got push notifications on Damus TestFlight, how about notifications for when someone follows? That’s basically the only reason I still open up Primal anymore.

Primal has gotten slower. Is it due to their cache layer or something? Sometimes my profile and feed won’t load either. @npub16c0…6nvr I wonder why I never have this problem on Damus.

Nah, the bots will just adjust around the limit and delay their replies a few more seconds. Web of trust relays are the only way free relays will survive the spam I suspect.

Same applies to supporting federated fishbowls.
I never joined Mastodon because I thought that model was idiotic. Censorship with extra steps, as Rick and Morty would put it.
People bringing that to Nostr with Ditto and everyone cheering it on feels like a backdoor to reinviting censorship is emerging.
Relay moderation is fine, but siloed data is the antithesis of #nostr.
Ditto-like infrastructure is why BlueSky and Mastodon devolved into what they are now.
It’s the tech underneath that matters, not the names. If nostr goes into this direction, it will no longer be “nostr”

What do you think of the new constant O?
Unifying quantum mechanics with Einstein’s general relativity… ⚛️
Here’s a short excerpt:
“\subsection{Developing a Novel Constant in Quantum Physics}
This began by considering the possibility of a universal constant based on units of length, similar to how Planck's constant is based on units of time. In traditional quantum mechanics, energy is linked to frequency through Planck's constant \( h \). The goal was to harness wavelength (a measure of length) instead of frequency (a measure of time) to discover a scalable constant: \( O \).
\vspace{1.2em} % Adjust the amount of space as needed
\textbf{Planck's constant (\( h \))}:
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{Equation}: \( E = h\nu \)
\item \textbf{Units}: Joule-seconds (Js)
\item \textbf{Role}: Relates energy to frequency, where frequency requires time.
\end{itemize}
\textbf{New constant (\( O \))}:
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{Equation}: \( O = E \times \lambda \)
\item \textbf{Units}: Joule-meters (Jm)
\item \textbf{Role}: Relates energy to wavelength, relying on spatial dimensions.
\end{itemize}
\subsection{Establishing \( O \) as a Scalable Constant: Deriving From The Cornerstones of Quantum Physics With Consistency}
\begin{enumerate}
\item \textbf{Deriving \( O \) from Planck's Constant and Speed of Light}:
\[
O = h \times c
\]
\item \textbf{Deriving \( O \) from Energy and Wavelength}:
\[
O = E \times \lambda
\]
\end{enumerate}
These expressions show how \( O \) bridges the concepts of energy, wavelength, Planck's constant, and the speed of light.
\subsection{Calculating \( O \) with Real Values}
\textbf{Calculating \( O \) from Planck's Constant and Speed of Light:}
\[
h = 6.62607015 \times 10^{-34} \, \text{Js}
\]
\[
c = 3 \times 10^8 \, \text{m/s}
\]
\[
O = h \times c = 6.62607015 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^8 = \mathbf{1.987821045 \times 10^{-25} \, \text{Jm}}
\]
\textbf{Deriving \( O \) from Energy and Wavelength:}
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{Purple Photon}:
\[
E = \frac{6.62607015 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^8}{400 \times 10^{-9}} = 4.97 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{J}
\]
\[
\lambda = 400 \times 10^{-9} \, \text{m}
\]
\[
O = \mathbf{1.99 \times 10^{-25} \, \text{Jm}}
\]
\item \textbf{Red Photon}:
\[
E = \frac{6.62607015 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^8}{700 \times 10^{-9}} = 2.84 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{J}
\]
\[
\lambda = 700 \times 10^{-9} \, \text{m}
\]
\[
O = \mathbf{1.99 \times 10^{-25} \, \text{Jm}}
\]
\end{itemize}
The value of \( O \) remains consistent at \(\mathbf{1.99 \times 10^{-25} \, \text{Jm}}\) regardless of the photon's energy and wavelength. This consistency across different scenarios illustrates that \( O \) is a fundamental constant, unifying the relationship between energy and wavelength in quantum mechanics.
\subsection{Establishing a Chain of Equalities with \( O \) and The Cornerstone Quantities of Quantum Physics}
\[
O = h \times c = E \times \lambda
\]
This chain of equalities incorporates fundamental constants and parameters from the cornerstone equations of quantum physics. Energy, as seen in \(E = mc^2\), wavelength from de Broglie's equation, Planck's constant \(h\) from Planck's equation, and \(c\), the speed of light used ubiquitously. The emergence of this relationship showcases the profound interconnectivity of these universal constants.”

If you don’t know other relays exist, you can’t post to them! That’s the point of the DHT… DHTs let you discover neighboring nodes without a centralized list of nodes.

Outbox works well across well-connected relays, it’s just disparate relays that don’t even know of each other — they can’t share the NIP-65 event.
If you aren’t aware of relays in other countries then you can’t sync with them. The DHT enables you to discover the other relays. See?

“they would have already.”
Not necessarily… 🙏
Most haven’t heard of Nostr, or had a bad experience due to Nostr lacking algorithms and speed (tons of missing posts/client glitches/etc).
It’s nowhere near as advanced as Twitter yet. Once it is, then the price for censorship resistance might not require such a steep cost.
Right now the switching costs are too high: you lose your network and lose many features of Twitter. Reverse-chronological feed with missing notes is primitive compared to X and what comes next.
Once Nostr has all the features normal Twitter has, including consistent speed and feed algorithms, then the true test begins…

August 19th Anniversary ⚛️
Launch of the First Living Beings into Space (1960): https://starchild.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/StarChild/questions/question49.html
“Two dogs, Belka and Strelka, were launched into space on August 19, 1960 aboard the Soviet's Sputnik 5 spacecraft. They returned to Earth one day later, becoming the first living creatures to be launched into space and returned safely to the ground. Belka ("Squirrel") and Strelka ("Little Arrow") were actually accompanied on their historic flight by 40 mice, 2 rats and a number of plants.
A few months after that flight, Strelka gave birth to six healthy puppies. One of the pups, named Pushinka, was given to Caroline Kennedy, daughter of U.S. President John F. Kennedy, as a present from Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev.
Today, a preserved Belka can be seen in the Memorial Museum of Astronautics in Moscow. Strelka was also preserved and is often sent "on travel" by the museum.” https://i.nostr.build/4vPEUDPuHqWvukYb.gif

Around 9 years ago, in late 2015, Karson and I found ourselves deep in conversation, engaging in a thought experiment that would shape our understanding of a novel unified theory. We began with a fundamental concept that Einstein had proven: space-time is a four-dimensional fabric that permeates everything—inside and out. From this foundation, we decided to take the idea to its logical conclusion.
We pondered how space-time, which influences entire planets, might also interact with the very building blocks of those planets—atoms and, ultimately, their quantum particles. If space-time affects large structures like planets, it must also affect the quantum particles that constitute those planets. It seemed both philosophically and epistemologically impossible for this not to be true. This led us to suspect that this principle might be a crucial key to discovering the true nature of quantum gravity.
We held the belief that wholes are made up of their constituent parts, and that reality possesses a definite structure and full realism. About 5 years ago, we published our first attempt to describe this concept. While that early effort lacked valid mathematical equations and contained several errors, the central idea—that the curves of waves are actually the curves of space-time—remained sound.
Now, 5 years later, I have finally developed the equations that represent and extend this core idea, integrating it across the cornerstone equations of physics—from the quantum scale to the cosmological. These equations not only demonstrate that the curved quantum waves are indeed the curvature of space-time, but they also unify all four fundamental forces of the universe within a single framework of scale-invariant space-time curvature: proving that the only force mediating all particle interactions is due to the force evoked by the curvature of space-time itself.
