I like Gitlab. Self-hosted, open source and fully remote. I have a contact if you‘d like to connect with someone. Your nostr git work could help you apply there. Your efforts may complement Gitlab in an interesting way.

This is what I try to do when choosing who we support with donations:
- look at library usage in our projects
- make a table of GitHub stars vs downloads on Rubygems
- donate to GitHub developers with few stars but heavy usage
There are other and unrelated selection criteria as well. For example we donate to the Web Archive and Tor because we think them to be very important infrastructure projects.

Idea for a GPT-memory experiment:

Simulation theory: I dicovered an information theory paradoxon. Perfect entropy makes it impossible to figure out how the simulation works from the inside because there‘s no space for leaky abstractions. „Impurities“ (too much order or too much chaos) on the other hand leave space for interpretation about the simulation environment. If leaky abstractions give you information about the environment, don‘t they also increase entropy in the simulation?
The paradoxon is: less entropy in the world leads to a more interesting universe because there is more simulation potential. So once again it matters from where you measure.

AI parallels exploration: Like the reformation.
The catholic church has a firm grip on books and knowledge. The printing press allows for never seen distribution of knowledge. Reformation splits whole societies. Both have sides having the same access to information, but different interpretion context.

Just listened to Joe Rogan 2156 (https://open.spotify.com/episode/0RMUNGWB0P22Ka6E71zV5b)
Follow-up thoughts:
AI promises unlimited information. Nuclear energy promised unlimited energy. How do we not have unlimited energy today?
If this parallel was valid, I‘d lay it out like this:
- The first atom bomb was THE thing because it was used in the real world and we perceived it discretly.
- Scaling (building more powerful bombs) is comparatively easy.
- But it‘s not obvious how to control and distribute useful civil applications. These engineering problems cannot just be solved theoretically. The solutions have to be acted out.
- We may not accept unlimited information because they come from simulated truths which have not been acted out (yet).
- So we‘ve probably got more time than some of us software-hybritians think.
Bonus questions:
- At which interfaces is Bitcoin connected to the real world?
- Does Bitcoin behave differently in the Matrix?

I like the idea. A burned npub is like a lost npub. Compromiser can burn it. Fine, as long as there cannot be a migration event together with the deletion. I don‘t see a solution for migrations in nostr because time is not absolute. Referencing other events can only give relative time.
