Last Notes npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience This is unproductive. npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience Does this post show up as zappable? npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience Using Matt Pocock's 'teach' skill which is pretty great. Takes any topic, researches and builds a web interface to teach you the subject complete with exercises and aims to hit your learning goals. npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience Good morning, Nostr. Today's problem: Published my Dad's first novel on Amazon yesterday and the ebook showed up fine but I'm frustrated that despite saying it's "live" his paperback is not appearing in any regions. #kdp #amazon npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience RIP Glen Hansard.

I might need more human contact. npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience No. As I understand it the relays are specifically purpose built for Buzz. You have to download and install your own copy of their relay server. npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience The pyramids, the Dom Cathedral, these monuments to ancient achievement in architecture have absolutely nothing on this elaborate and underappreciated stage set from Tomorrowland 2026 music festival. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSJEkiV3cCs npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience The onboarding gives you a buzz-owned relay by default and (according to one of their bots) all communication I type inside slack is plaintext visible to the relay owner. So that's a little disconcerting for enterprise use. As I understand it you can download and run your own private (but Buzz-specific) relay server. Not sure if the source is open or not. npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience I thought it would be cool and powerful to start a designer agent and a programmer agent on a single project and now I am watching them go back and forth arguing about implementation details with no route to consensus at the cost of my tokens. Fascinating / Expensive. #aidev #ai #nostrbuild npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience Just the facts. https://blossom.primal.net/89162eb804c313f14437a89425addfb049b4ae7b4603f7c50e2551952ad04ac1.png npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience Social media has its faults, of course, but there is nothing I enjoy more than seeing occasional slices of life from people in other parts of the world. npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience Do I understand correctly that I can chat with my Buzz agents via Nostr DM? 🤯 npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience @npub1c9q…essw is really digging Everything About You (Original Mix) by Inf3ris right now! #music #derpy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Kr6vqLbh4w npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience 2 negative things that jump out at me about #Buzz. 1) Despite logging in using my Nostr secret key it then asked me to set up an email account on an unknown server before I could start using it. 2) It's "Slack with Agents" but that assumes that Slack/Discord are actually good interfaces people like to work in. The are not. #aidev #aiworkflow npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience @npub18am…p424 The 'noscrobble' you wrote. Where do those updates actually appear? Is there any web interfaces that actually show someone's activity that way? npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience Salsa: With roasted vegetables or raw?

Can't wait to give this a try. npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience I'm really hopeful that post-Trump America will rebuild its leadership/reputation on the world stage. npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience I was very impressed with it. It's more risk averse / thorough than Opus and takes longer to think but results are worth it. npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience This is going to be a rare treat. #beer https://blossom.primal.net/5033c79a27f168f8162e7ea8e6cc8946ef5b0b465c43084b3286e8caa3750de4.png https://blossom.primal.net/f87e7bd717083ce050d8a5b8b6156d44e8ba57d4bbee70f10cc299b567bacb2e.png npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience Between this and Hegseth's bizarre testosterone announcement, I don't know how sane Americans are suffering this guy. It's like the town idiots are running your country. npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience What. A.

The only time I came close to the limit was when I tried to one-shot an app with Fable. For my personal agent I use DeepSeek 4 Pro and that burns through $25 a week on just Googling. npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience Working on the Windows version as we speak. Stay tuned. npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience Does anyone else's Claude (or equivelant) overuse the word "honest"? Example: "Here's the honest answer to your question..." Mine does this all day every day in almost every response and I actually find it ironically unsettling. One should not have to profess ones honesty. The fact that you do, implies its opposite. #ai #agentic npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience Welcome. It's weird but there are signs of life. npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience Wow. No protections against shit like that or is it just too hard to access? npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience It works! npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience This. #note1eyr…2h5f npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience New member of the family.

Coming soon. npub1c9q4dlwsq9s074fzrkkasctywk333akcegtnjtwfafgnk2av8rlq6hessw punkscience So this is not my first Nostr-utilizing tool but it is my first Nostr project made public because it might be useful. I'd love some folks to poke holes in it for me. This is a syncthing-like that uses a #Blossom server (minimal one included) and #nostr relay to sync a folder across a series of devices.

But that only makes me really determined to talk to the really smart people who I know are still building it.
