And they are willing to take a lot of pain to stay on top, even if it means the whole world takes a lot of pain. Military primacy supercedes other concerns. I think taking the THAAD from S. Korea was because they have to make hard choices, and the active war is currently in Iran.<br/><br/>Nonetheless, since I wrote this, nobody has mined the strait.

And I think Iran has no good reason to put mines in the strait, because it isn&#39;t a reasonable threat of deterrance against a superpower that has plenty of oil (22m barrels a day, second is Saudi Arabia at only 10). And Iran has no good reason to destroy oil infrastructure in the gulf, only to destroy US bases there. If mines show up in the strait, or gulf oil assets are hit, I think that is US forces doing it, perhaps Iraq. The one who benefits from the strait being closed is the US, and the ones who suffer is everybody else and especially China who still gets 20% of their energy from the gulf. Blockading China at the 2nd island chain seems to have not worked out (China too on top of that one) so this strategy of shutting down the gulf and blaming Iran is Plan B. And also, Israel doesn&#39;t control the US, it gets attacked by missiles on behalf of the US, same as Ukraine does. Now of course Netanyahu is a homocidal maniac, and there is a greater Israel plan, and this stuff dovetails together, I didn&#39;t say otherwise. But I think the US faceless policy people are running the show and Trump is running the distrations. 2026-03-11T06:20:00Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqsyuzxlf82z2gmq6fzk8ezwffd7hqmu9kv2vwcj8jssf58r9hccwmspz9mhxue69uhkummnw3e82efwvdhk6q3qacg6thl5psv62405rljzkj8spesceyfz2c32udakc2ak0dmvfeysesg64m Many people hold to the notion that modern disease is caused by modern eating.

What they fail to see is how much better off they&#39;d be if they raised their chances even more (you can almost always improve your odds of being right by doing things that will give you more information). The expected value gain from raising the probability of being right from 51 percent to 85 percent (i.e., by 34 percentage points) is seventeen times more than raising the odds of being right from 49 percent (which is probably wrong) to 51 percent (which is only a little more likely to be right). Think of the probability as a measure of how often you&#39;re likely to be wrong. Raising the probability of being right by 34 percentage points means that a third of your bets will switch from losses to wins. That&#39;s why it pays to stress-test your thinking, even when you&#39;re pretty sure you&#39;re right.&#34; - Ray Dalio, <a href="https://x.com/RayDalio/status/1981832067848741049">https://x.com/RayDalio/status/1981832067848741049</a> 2025-10-24T23:19:24Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqsd46djy2a2ydp30eyza3pud73uh3lay8fh87p8h007u22eyxh34hcpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3e82efwvdhk6q3qacg6thl5psv62405rljzkj8spesceyfz2c32udakc2ak0dmvfeys4q9tr2 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsvqhm5pl8k2ygnqvnpm8neq56a57sk2457hhs5chtgft4f2ftzn3gpzemhxue69uhku6t9dshxummnw3erztnrdakj784cj7r'>nevent1q…cj7r</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>The case against is that such relay endpoints won&#39;t work with clients that don&#39;t upgrade to support such a thing, so deploying such things forks nostr internally anyway.

But I&#39;m unaware of any other next-gen project in the works. And most of these hard problems are not happening in nostr. I talked to a number of devs about future ideas. The Rostra guy is totally jaded and uninterested. Nuh wants to build on a crypographic filesystem (with pkarr of course).<br/><br/>I&#39;m spending a lot of time in the fiat mines, but I&#39;m still progressing Mosaic stuff. The spec and code are open, and the spec leads, so nobody can think I tried to jump start others. Truth is however that I&#39;m the only person working on it, nobody else who has shown any interest has shown interest in helping to build it.

I quite like the seed signer and using QR codes and cameras to move data around.<br/><br/>So I&#39;m writing an android app that I will run on a disused android phone that I disable as much as possible (no SIM, no WiFi password, airplane mode, flashing the modem with zeroes).

Some people are worried about this.<br/><br/>But I think it is a good thing. The Earth has some carrying capacity and if we go beyond it people will start starving. That is not fun. Yes, we can engineer a higher carrying capacity as we did during the green revolution. But there are still limits.<br/><br/>Population is still growing. It is still growing in the USA. It is still growing in NZ. It is very much still growing in sub-Saharan Africa. Current estimates put the peak at 10 billion.<br/><br/>The problem with population contraction that most of you and I will feel is that all the government (and non-government) Ponzi schemes will collapse.

Did you look at rana? Or other client PoW code? Or just start fresh?<br/><br/>While computing power spans a wide range, as you say, even a little bit of PoW makes creating a new account ONE MILLION times harder. That takes less than a second though. There is no ideal amount of PoW that keeps out spammers, but if you can slow them down one-million fold with a trick that costs very little, it still seems worth it. 2025-09-03T23:34:11Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqs2t5dlclttl2jxarwa9rpaccqg7kmq2kywllm8cp9kqgx5j04hf5cpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3e82efwvdhk6q3qacg6thl5psv62405rljzkj8spesceyfz2c32udakc2ak0dmvfeys09kve5 If starting over, proof-of-work might work.<br/><br/>Nostr software has explored a number of spam prevention mechanisms. Some of them are quite good. But one that didn&#39;t gain widespread adoption was proof-of-work.<br/><br/>I&#39;m thinking of a PoW on public keys. If public keys must end in 28 zeroes or be rejected as invalid keys, this would require about 100 seconds of delay for someone to create a new identity. If handling a spam message takes only 10 seconds (probably less), then spammers would have to work 10x as hard as spam recipients to keep the spam flowing. That might not be enough to deter spammers entirely, but it would be an unavoidable cost in the equasion that could slow spam down. And of course other spam prevention techniques could also be in play, it doesn&#39;t interfere with any of them.<br/><br/>What do you think? If this isn&#39;t useful, or makes something important too hard to do, let me know. This would be for mosaic, not nostr, since nobody uses mosaic it can get these kinds of changes. 2025-09-03T23:26:00Z
