i should add it to the default spider relay list then

also, i advise being careful to not have it make big changes that cut across multiple scopes, because it becomes very difficult to roll back changes. commit when it does the new thing properly, then you can just stash or dump the changes

i don't use this one you use, i tried it but it seemed too aggressive and prone to missing out things, and it doesn't make tests or check stuff properly, maybe if you tell it to, but not by default jetbrains junie does. i only have to rein it in when i haven't given it sufficient scope limits

this only covers kind 0 events though, right? still good but i think relay lists, follow and mute lists should be included

yes, and it does it initially when the database is empty when you set an owner, according to what you define for the spider. it doesn't become responsive until it has the follow lists of owner and follows, and the mute list of the owner, which functions as the relay blacklist (which determines who can store events) the rest of the spidering happens in the background at first start, and is repeated hourly to update the events you tell the spider to spider.

also, PKDNS is a consensus, which means that everyone has to follow it, or it doesn't work. that's not how nostr works. nostr is only a protocol, not a consensus protocol. there is good reasons why you might not want to use the same protocol. like closed and private relays, companies will not want this information broadcast either, if it links to the company. the users directory events, though, are perfectly fine to be pushed and pulled from company relays if they decide to, it just leaks membership.

even if the bright light doesn't actually put the animal into a state of catatonia, it still is disorienting. this is why many gun mounted tactical lights have flash modes to disorient the targets so they can't shoot back.

that assumes that you don't create push or pull schemes to sync them i've been saying it maybe 6 months that "directory" events need a strong consistency consensus. this means broadcasting them and fetching them and keeping the latest versions, at least. that's user metadata, follow and mute lists, relay lists, there is probably others that need to be added to that list but until the nip guardians and their fans recognise this, it's just gonna be me saying it. it has to be recognised eventually. we don't need to broadcast everything, just the map.

yeah, maybe not actually shoot them but they will scatter with some loud bangs. the horn is not scary enough for them. if you can use regular guns just put blanks in them, or get maybe a flare gun and hit a couple of them and they'll get the message. flare guns are probably the most universal solution you can apply anywhere in the world you need to drive through cow crossing paths

i can't think of anything more i want to add to it particularly, but most of the features since adding the spider have been small refinements based on observations and reflection on what was done so far there's probably the odd one or two more important small changes needed but yeah, it was probably fine for such use before. i added one important feature today, a refinement, that allows designated owners to delete any event - only by e tag though, it would be a fairly big API change for the save/query functions to do a tag deletes as well. and kinda unnecessary, since for the most part you have already got teh option of owner mute list and getting all the IDs of their events and deleting them as owner. so, yeah, should be good. do let me know if anything especially squirrelly happens. also be careful with the spider, this is why i have settings on it, privacy setting stops it reaching out to find events and there is three levels of spider, one is off, second is only to fetch directory events, and third is to pull in ALL of the second degree of follows into the relay, which happens on an hourly basis.

there is a property in common between the need for a single global currency for the internet, which #bitcoin provides, and #nostr - which is the need for a single social network identity. there will be an eventual convergence on nostr as an identity system because it lacks the limitations of all of the others: transportabliity and the ability to store attestations of other network identities. the property of bitcoin that has made it the dominant cryptocurrency is called "moneyness" and this stems from a market need for marketability of the commodity that is to be used as money. this is why bitcoin keeps on growing in value and userbase. the equivalent in an identity system for the internet is the need to be able to identify a singular point at which anyone can go look and see "that's this guy". keybase (RIP) had a scheme for attestation to link network identities together, but it didn't have the self-sovereign identity base for it. so it never took off for this purpose, even though it made it quite easy to do. what people want to be able to do is just publish one event that says "i'm this user on X, this user on facebook, this user on gmail, this user on protonmail..." and so on. there is only one place on the internet right now where you can do that, where connecting accounts together can be achieved: nostr.

in the dark, bright light destroys your ability to see in the direction the light is coming from, so it causes disorientation. deer and rabbits and other nervous animals this causes shock, their blood pressure drops because their pulse weakens. cows are quite nervous animals too, but not as nervous as rabbits or deer, and animals like cats and sheep and goats (and weasels and raccoons) are just crazy so when they get that shock reaction their adrenalin surges and they run. humans are somewhere in between.

HTTP has a standard for this, the proto prefix: so you could have telegram://mleku1 and nostr:// and pubky:// etc etc

the thinner the base the more paper?

almost all secret keys are valid across all curves, also. so it's really just about registering them. all you need is to have fields for them in the profile metadata events

cows are pretty useless at understanding cars, probably double useless when it's dark. gotta be really careful because they will end up on your bonnet and breaking your windshield. i think getting out and shooing them away works, sorta.

i'm looking for a #job ... 8 years experience #golang programmer, lots of experience with APIs, #cryptography, #bitcoin and #nostr, badgerDB key value store, concurrency, #network and #protocols i'm open to a temporary contract, full time, anything at all that will get me some more runway for something better if it's not long term.

#nostrudel has been doing this to me for quite some time now

KYC is the mark of the beast

he means being delisted from app stores for mobile devices how are the regulators going to attack a simple dumb server?

zuck is a psycho. i already knew this but i had no idea the depths he had already plumbed. i quit using facebook because i found out they were deliberately isolating me from the social graph in 2018. but this goes beyond the pale. all meanwhile zuck was helping along with the russia hoax and all, i mean, they are all in it together, and we need to shun them, and warn our friends. unfortunately normies are not gonna pay attention until they get their identity stolen or their bank accounts drained or blocked or suffer a physical attack because of someone using that information hacked out of their i systems. some people are gonna suffer a lot, but there's not much you can do except warn them. they have to take the action to learn how to defend themselves. authoritarianism is the disease they need to cure, and they will never reject it while they are infected with it and feel no pain.

you asked if it's true the answer, is it's true to the extent that they have good, current images of the locations, and how frequently they are updated as the landscape changes

they are normalizing the idea of constant universal recording of everything. their ability to do it does increase over time, and will accelerate as the storage cost is reduced to updating recognition models of LLMs but at some point enough people will feel that glare of the panopticon and start to passively resist it in dozens of ways. one being, to no longer publish photographs.

seems like i'm being DoS'd right now

i was just listening to a live chat from Space Weather News guy Ben Davidson today exactly and he was talking about the mechanism of cyclic superflares and micronovas, and it is most likely a dual mechanism one thing that can cause a star to flare is a lot of material falling onto it (the current sheet is plasma and particles thrown out by the other stars in the galaxy especially the big old ones in the center the other thing that causes this is a 90 degree rotation of the galactic magnetic field, which is carried along with the particles via magnetic induction so, both things are at play, and both things are known to be able to stimulate a star to have a big explosion in the corona which throws out massive amounts of material indeed, large interstellar object crashing into the sun can cause a massive flare as well basically the stuff in the object catches fire and i think also if it's moving fast enough will impact the crust of the star - this is a somewhat unconventional model but i'm pretty sure that stars have some kind of crust, the corona is a gas reaction system stimulated by the strong magnetic dynamo of the core, but there is a crust, i'm pretty sure, and just like the magnetic field conflict causes planets to have crustal slips, this causes the mantle to become less viscous and the massive motion of the crust causes huge amounts of breaks and subduction and new volcanos and whatnot which also add to the appearance of a massive explosion in the plasma-filled atmosphere. obviously the crust layer of a star is going to be a lot different, probably primarily silicaceous, and the temperature of the surface is probably not far below the melting point of the rock, but i'm pretty sure it's not permanent lava. the coronal holes and sunspots are exactly the solar atmospheric equivalent of tornados and hurricanes and cyclones, and another thing about the sun is that the atmosphere itself is constantly in a motion, we see the sun spinning left to right as we watch it, the thing we are seeing is actually the motion of the atmosphere, the polar atmosphere shows you how fast the solid matter inside the star is actually moving it's my opinion that the current theories about what stars are made of and how they function is not fully known and this lack of information allows these thermal-based climate models to be twisted into misanthropic human caused change bullshit, when actually the main thing going on is not the heat but the electricity, magnetism and high energy particles that carry electrons from the sun and this energy flows through the atmosphere causing weather, and the crust and mantle, causing seismic and volcanic activity. also, it can happen sometimes that stars have such big explosions that most of the outer parts of the star, all of the lighter stuff at the crust layer and all, are completely blown off and all that remains is essentially a giant, mostly metallic ball with the internal dynamo greatly cooled and thus it shrinks substantially with all the light matter gone. think like, a great deal of what doesn't get blown off is stuff like iron, lead, and other heavy metals. haha, yeah, dead stars are heavy metal. lol.

yeah it's very old but it is awesome. actually good film.

i mean, yeah, interstellar object blah blah has no relation to the timing of the cycles of the galactic current sheet. but it doesn't have the tick tock rhythm

one may love one's livestock but still eat them. pets are generally a type of livestock kept for labor. be it pats, chasing sheep or catching mice.

i'm kinda amused that the interstellar object that is on a course to cross through the solar system have a lot of people starting to speculate that it's actually carrying some kind of people. interesting, in my view, because the timing. there is several hints at the idea that by 2028 there will be some kind of event involving *someone* showing up and doing stuff. the object will be crossing the orbital plane in the next 6 months, i think. if the damn thing stops or a swarm of spacecraft leap out of it i'm not gonna be surprised. but it's funny, the chatter about it is getting intense. this is not the same as Niburu. this thing is too small to be any kind of danger and not following a course that is going to hit anything. let's hope it's Jesus and his Host coming to take out the trash. that would be nice. but it could just be unrelated.

interesting. i think that this relates to the Van Allen belt. you notice it's not just the equator of the ring that builds plasma, the poles do too, so there is the implication that both aurorae and tropical weather systems also are connected to electricity. there is a lot of weather phenomena that are strongly connected to magnetic fields, plasma and electricity flowing through the plasma. it's one of the most interesting things about plasma - it is more conductive than vacuum and non-plasma, non-conductive materials. i saw a great little presentation on youtube a while back that showed that a tazer modified to put the electrodes too far apart to arc, when placed in front of a flame, were able to arc again, the implication being that the flame is more conductive, and combustion produces a substantial amount of plasma. around the equator of a planet, the magnetic field created by the core, and like earth and larger planets, made stronger still by a dynamo effect powered by gravity, the magnetic field lines are thinner and have less inhibitory effect on the flow of current around this axis. These regions are called "L-Shells" and they are closely related to why there is monsoons, cyclones and hurrricanes frequently in the region between the tropics. these are the points where the L shells emerge from the crust and they form an magnetic field that allows electrons to emerge from one side and conduct across over in an arc and back down. these up-and-down paths of the magnetism and current that flows through them drive the strong high and low pressure conditions in the atmosphere that give you cyclonic storms.

the floor is lava?
