Wrote a story: this is a translation of Hanumaner shopno (Hanuman's dream). Here is the link:

Call for #collaboration: I am preparing an abstract for a public health conference in Australia where I will propose how public health and community medicine teaching community can make use of #Nostr, AI, and #Bitcoin and how this will transform teaching and training of public health. I am looking for co presenters as this is too early to find collaborators within my own discipline. If you are interested, can you please email or message me at [email protected] ?

Imagine a world where truly #Knowledge is free and the world is not broken into fragments and silos because of deep #decentralisation of education fostered by the trio of #LLM, #Bitcoin and #Nostr providing the binder that connects everything. It's unsettling to think of the next big thing in #education brought on by #Nostr

2023-05-29 10:06:46

Imagine the power of #Nostr and lightning network SATS abd #Valu4Value to transform travel and hospitality industry. You, your payment and your host share the relays on their respective clients, values move through the network, and you move physically in space. A fluid world where unimaginable things happen.

The zap system in #Nostr goes back to the timeless tradition of recognising values. This is the present and future of online interactions.

If the #Academic and #Teaching community were to enbrace #Nostr and the #Value4Value philosophy, this would bring about a major shift in teaching and universities. In turn, society would benefit as more young graduates would come out of the universities with philosophical grounding in independence and #Decentralisation, and #Value would be emphasised. Yet #Nostr as a protocol is as simple and usable as http. Where to next? What shall we do with the tech stack?

Are there videoconferencing solutions built on top of #Nostr protocol?

2023-05-14 09:05:51

We appreciate #Nostr is a fantastic protocol to share short form #Microblogs and posts (events; twitter/facebook like but better), longer text notes (blog posts), host real time audio conferences (nostr nests). But is there any videoconferencing tool/app built on top of this protocol? The reason I ask is we can use Nostr for Telemedicine/Telehealth applications in resource poor settings in the world and equally in resource-rich settings during emergencies (war, environmental disasters, and others) where events/notes etc can be shared and stored-forwarded through distributed relays and lives can be saved.
Not only that, using zaps and SATS can build a "bridge" between people who can afford (even tiny amounts) to reach supplies and provisions to people who need them most.
Thoughts?

100% with you on this. This is one more reason why I think #Nostr is great because of the possibility of fine tuning of relays _and_ curation tools it places on the client-side.

The part about #Nostr I like is how neatly I can integrate #RSS feeds, #ActivityPub and Nostr stream all in one feed. With tweaking of relays, I can practically be in 'rss reading mode', #Fediverse mode or just do Nostr.
How cool can it be?
#LoveNostr
Was wondering how might it be possible to transmit evaluable code components via Nostr, say #Observables and #Visualizations?

2023-05-12 08:41:20

- reply

I think you and I are talking about different things. I agree that I can follow anyone on the #Fediverse from any account (as long as I know their address or can search them), I can follow any topic/hashtag, etc I want, I can pull in any RSS feed.
But if I am on instance X, I cannot post on instance Y _from_ instance X having been logged in there; I can at mention a user and any post I make from at instance X will show up on instance Y feed for a user who either traverses the global timeline or as a follower, but those are different things.
_Within_ an instance, in order to participate in discussions or discover _new contents_, I will still need to log in to that particular instance. There is no other way.
In the attached image, I have shown you a #Mastodon instance `qoto.org`. If I use the posting box there, I can only post to qoto.org. Whatever I post there will show up on my timeline in another instance alright, but as `[email protected]`, if I have to post something, then I will need to _either_ visit that site on a browser or log in as that user on an app (e.g. Tusky or whatever). Once I am _inside_ the app, I can discover new contents and all that.
Other than that, indeed, for following individuals or topics etc, one does not need to _visit_ an instance. But to _read_ contents _within_ an instance that goes beyond following individuals or topics, there is a need to visit individual instances to be kept up (say following conversations and discussions in press.coop, you need to visit or create an account there, because following random accounts with `press.coop` will not work.
![](https://nostr.build/i/3ef918ee638ce559f24709501e6e2037fdc1ba43545fe2177362a10edac37e5d.jpg)

My comment or statement was about the local timeline. Explore or Federated timeline (some apps call it "Global") provide you with a list of everyone who has shared status updates, with various degrees of separation, but that is not the same as going into the local timeline of an instance where you have your account and checking out new conversations. You won't be able to access them from global feeds/explore alone. For this one needs to check out the local timeline of the _instance_ where one has an account.
I hope it makes it clear what I wanted to write there.
Thanks!

এমনিতে সিস্টেমটা খুব সহজ, আমি যখন প্রথম শুরু করেছিলাম , আমারও খুব গুলিয়ে যাচ্ছিল, এতটাই যে, এমনকি আমি #ফেডিভারসে গিয়ে লিখে এলাম এ আমার পছন্দের নয়। কিন্তু পরে দেখলাম এ এক দারুণ সিস্টেম করেছে।
ব্যাপারটা পুরোটাই আপনার client আর relay র খেলা।
আপনি মোবাইল, বা ব্রাউজার, যেখানেই হোক, একটি অ্যাপ ইনস্টল করুন, তাতে দেখবেন আপনার জিনিসটা বুঝতে সুবিধা হবে। আমি প্রথমে iris.to দিয়ে শুরু করেছি এবং মাঝে মাঝে ব্যবহার করি বটে, তবে আমার মনে হয় অন্যান্য কয়েকটি অ্যাপ আরো ভাল, যেমন
coracle.social
(https://coracle.social/login)
সবার আগে একটা ব্রাউজার অ্যাপ ডাউনলোড করুন।
আপনি যদি গুগল ক্রোম বা ক্রোমিয়াম টাইপের ব্রাউজার ব্যবহার করেন, তাহলে Flamingo (https://www.getflamingo.org/) নামের অ্যাপটি ব্যবহার করে দেখতে পারেন, নাহলে আপনি যদি Firefox ব্যবহার করেন, তাহলে অবশ্য nox2x-fox (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nos2x-fox/) এইটাই পাবেন।
ব্রাউজার অ্যাপ ডাউনলোড করে অ্যাপটায় আপনার একাউন্টের পাসওয়ার্ড মানে `nsec1...` দিয়ে যে সিক্রেট কি, সেইটে লোড করে নিন।
তারপর, ব্রাউজারে coracle.social এ লগ ইন করুন। দেখবেন আপনি যাদের ফলো করছেন তাদের সমস্ত পোস্ট পড়তে পারবেন, লিস্ট তৈরী করতে পারবেন, ইত্যাদি।
তবে এটা শুরু, আসল ব্যাপারটা হচ্ছে আপনি কিভাবে আপনার relay গুলোকে ব্যবহার করবেন।
একটা মত হল, যত বেশী রিলে পারবেন তাতে সাবস্ক্রাইব করুন, তাতে আপনার লেখা তত বেশী ক্লায়েনটের কাছে ছড়িয়ে যাবে। আর আপনিও প্রচুর লোকের পোস্ট দেখতে পাবেন।
ব্যাপারটা এইরকম: আমি আর আপনি যদি একই রিলেতে লিখি/পড়ি, তাহলে আপনি আমার আর আমি আপনার লেখাগুলো দেখতে পাব | সেটা না হলে (মানে ধরুন আমার আর আপনার মধ্যে একটাও common relay নেই), আমি আপনি আমাদের কারো কোন লেখা পড়তে পারব না।
আরো একটা ব্যাপার আছে।
এই ক্লায়েন্ট একেকটা কমপিউটারে একেকটা ব্রাউজারে আপনাকে নিজে সেট করে নিতে হবে। না হলে দেখবেন একেকটা জায়গায় একেকরকমের ফিড আসবে, :-)
এই ব্যাপারটা আপনি নানারকম ভাবে ব্যবহার করতে পারেন।

1) Relays
2) An onboarding for the newbies from twitter or fediverse as it takes a while to get one’s head around
3) The general vibe of this place, it has a friendly environment, I at least feel like staying here, plus a lot of people keep ‘building’ something
4) Too early to say
5) One way would be to build and develop an academic community presence here. #Nostr is amazing in how simple and flexible this is in terms of decentralisation and flexibility. So, maybe start with a spreadsheet of academic community, build relays and show them around. Also, building a tighter integration with #ActivityPub protocol.

For example, if you visit coracle.social, you can create lists from keywords and hashtags and searching for people and you can then share it to your followers or widely, e.g., push to your relays. Even otherwise you can add lists of websites and share.

2023-05-10 21:58:23

- reply

I probably did not explain properly. While it is true that you can access publicly available contents from one registered instance, it helps to discover new contents and people if you _visit_ the instance where conversations happen. For example, if I wanted to add new people to follow on Mastodon.social, I'd have to visit the instance, I cannot do so from my personal instance. If you know otherwise or have a tip how that can be achieved, will appreciate your advice.

বাংলায় নস্ত্র, সোস্যাল মিডিয়ার এ এক দারুণ অস্ত্র!
আপনার শুধু একটি একাউন্ট তৈরী করলেই হবে, সেটা যেখানেই হোক। ঐ একটি একাউন্টের সঙ্গে মনে রাখবেন তিনটে ব্যাপার:
১) আপনার আইডি আর তার সঙ্গে সমন্বিত NIP05 একসটেনশন, ধরুণ আমার নাম [email protected], আমি iris.to সাইটে গিয়ে আমার আইডি তৈরী করেছি। আপনি অন্য কোথাও করতে পারেন, তিনটে জায়গা (প্রচুর আছে):

https://thebitcoinmanual.com/articles/setup-nostr-account/
এই ওয়েবসাইটটায় ভাল করে একাউন্ট তৈরী বোঝানো হয়েছে, তবে ব্যাপারটা খুব সহজ |
একাউন্ট তৈরীর পর আপনার একটা public key আর একটা private key পাবেন। প্রাইভেট চাবিটিকে পাসওয়ার্ডের মত করে ব্যবহার করবেন, পারতপক্ষে পারলে কপি পেস্ট করবেন না, সেই জন্য এ্যাপ ব্যবহার করলে ভাল হয়। আপনি ব্রাউজারের অ্যাপ, আর ফোনের অ্যাপ, ট্যাবের অ্যাপ ডাউনলোড করে ব্যবহার করতে পারেন।
তবে যে কারণে নস্ত্র আর সবাইকে টেক্কা দিতে পারে, সেইটে একে ব্যবহার করা নিয়ে। এই যে একবার একটা আইডি তৈরী করলেন, এতেই আপনি গোটা নস্ত্রকে ধরতে পারবেন, যে যেখানে যা লিখছেন সব একজায়গায় দেখতে পাবেন, যেখানে খুশী লিখতে পারবেন, সব কিছু সব কিছুর সঙ্গে যুক্ত, এবং সবকিছু আপনার নিয়ন্ত্রণে, মানে আপনি যে ডিভাইসে দেখছেন, সেখানে রাখা থাকে। যার জন্য একটু খেয়াল রাখবেন পাবলিক ডিভাইসে নস্ত্র ব্যবহার না করাই ভাল।
আপনি নস্ত্র ব্যবহার করবেন "ক্লায়েন্টে" (বাংলায় অ্যাপ, ;-) )। ব্রাউজারের ক্লায়েন্ট, আর ফোন/ট্যাবলেটের ক্লায়েন্ট |
ক্লায়েন্ট --> আপনার লেখা/ছবি/ভিডিও --> পাঠাবে Relay তে --> আপনার বন্ধু Relay থেকে তাঁর ক্লায়েন্টে টেনে নেবেন আপনার পাঠানো ছবি/লেখা/কথা | ক্লায়েন্ট আর Relay র খেলা, যার জন্য গোটা ব্যাপারটা এত সহজ আর সোজাসাপটা। আপনি ঠিক করবেন আপনি কি দেখবেন, কোথায় দেখবেন, কিভাবে দেখবেন।

It's only a few days, and I started getting annoyed with my online webmail asking me for username and password, and I am like why can't they learn it from #Nostr , and somehow this arrangement of nsec1 and npub1 feels to me that this thing is better than 2FA ;-)

#Nostr in the classroom
Teaching for example, is basically a social phenomenon. Teachers/Professors and their students are part of a social network which best thrives when this social network is such that everyone participates in a secure, interesting ways. Imagine a social network that has all the elements of like/favourite, share (locally and with the world uncontrolled by anyone), within the context of a classroom but also works equally well outside of the classroom.
As a student, you are part of a social network where you receive information from your professor and your fellow students, but at the same time, you can _either_ communicate ONLY with your fellow students OR with your professor and the fellow students, or with the professor alone, or whatever, only you control and tweak the conditions of what information you want. At the same time, you want this network to be able to connect you to the rest of the world.
This is possible with #Nostr. Imagine a class of four students where the professor (or the IT people at the University) set up a server for the class that serves as a private "relay" for the class. Students can pull from that relay and the professor pushes into that, and then depending on the context, students can either "push" into that relay or create a separate relay where they can talk with only themselves.
These can open up unprecedented teaching opportunities in a classroom or university.

On #Fediverse, I have an address `[email protected]`. I can jump into my #Pleroma instance and share whatever I want to share. Can I use `arinbasu1..` when I jump into a #Calckey server or a #Mastodon server? I cannot. I have to tie my identity to a server and then using _only_ that server I can communicate with the rest of the Fediverse. Which is fine but also creates a bloat. I can sheet anchor myself in my own instance at `social.arinbasu.online` and can read/write but to meet new people, and new conversations, I will still need to visit other instances. I wish there was an easier way to do things than that. This is also an aspect that many people, who come to fediverse from a walled garden such as twitter, rue, as they find it hard to negotiate with the medium first and then they will have to `create identities` everywhere first to read/write content. So, in this sense #Fediverse is like email, that with one identity you can read/write content and share with people.
Yet, you need to create separate identity in `each server` you have your account. It is not like you can push/pull to/from everything everywhere. #Nostr has upended this limitation, it seems. Here, I _start_ with an id, which, in my case, is, [email protected], but then with this id, I also get a public id ,
npub17vs8nsgxt2r3saj6w4089z05xvvkahj7urqs7jkdz9329s4cj5qquwmr5w
and a private id.
That private id acts like my login everywhere or all other apps I visit, and that's it. So I can visit any `service` such as damus, or iris, or coracle, login with my associated private id, and I am in. Then everything depends on how I tweak my relay list, as the more relays I will subscribe to, the more I will receive in my Global feed, and the more likely my `voice` will reach wider. I can even store my ideas to my own created relay and read/write when I want if I want.
In theory I will never need another identity with another app unless I need a special user case (even then). The magic is how I decide to tweak my relay list and do what I want to do.
Beat that!

I believe #Nostr gives the _user_ so much power to choose from what that person wants to read or share, that is the "winning" aspect. Fediverse and everything else will stay, but this thing is a game changer.

Precisely. #Nostr has stripped everything extraneous. It does not matter if I am on iris or damus or whatever. I can move and keep whatever client I want, but it's the mix of relays that matter. This has also made me rethink my relationship with "social" aspect of social media. Does a "fixed" set of followers and following make sense anymore if I can fine tune my feed?

Yes, but the teachers will need to find creative ways to use #ChatGPT in the classroom, so a form of quiz or assessment might be to ask students to generate an essay with ChatGPT and then let them examine the claim of the facts generated by ChatGPT and _reflect_ on them, as to what do these things even mean? What are the implications? In other words, students should be able to go deeper than facts as presented.

Eric Topol writes in this substack essay the intriguing research where brain tumours were found to interfere with speech and "thought" areas of the brain, leading to rapid loss of cognitive processing power. These researches point towards on the one hand, the need for deeper, causal level understanding as to what happens when someone has neural cancer, on the other hand, can lead to diagnostic and prognostic tools. A space to watch.
