Compact block relay. Basically speeds up syncing by not downloading TXs in new blocks that you already have in your mempool. Everyone was claiming you needed everything in your mempool or you would sync slower because you'd need to download the TXs that you filtered out. Now this point was bullshit, but even this doesn't apply to your proposal.
I can see your point being somewhat useful for almost valid TXs that will be valid in a few hours, but anything more than that is not useful because you don't know the fee rate in the future.
Who is gonna find this useful? It's like setting a limit buy order for a stock in the future. If you set it too high, you will overpay, if you set it low, it's not gonna go through. You will either overpay or have a high chance of it not going through in a reasonable time frame. The further in the future, the worse this problem gets.
There's also the issue with no cost mempool spam from bad actors. Imagine if there wasn't a minimum feerate for the mempool. A bad actor could just print a billion TXs to himself to bloat the mempool. The mempool can only persist as a free public service if there's a cost to using it. Currently, in order to have the mempool store your TX, your TX needs to have a decent likelihood of paying TX fees. Even though that fee doesn't go to node runners, it is still a cost associated with taking their mempool space, it's a cost that adds up if you try to put a million TXs in the mempool. You essentially have to take a 20-50% chance of paying .25 - 1 sat/byte of mempool space you take up for 2 weeks (how long TXs stay before bring dropped). This comes out to about .25 sats/byte/month of spam. This is already cheap for any wealthy actors to spam the mempool. Now if you instead allow TXs 1 year before they are valid, you are now cheapening the cost by a factor of 26.
The mempool isn't made for long term storage. Many different aspects of its design (TTL, TX propagation, node economics, fee rate fluctuations etc.) fall apart if you try to make it useful for such purposes. You'd have to rework it completely to the point that you'd have something else entirely that doesn't resemble the mempool you know today. This could be made into an entirely separate decentralized service disconnected from bitcoin core, but it's not what the mempool is for.

The mempool is a working memory of transactions that could end up in a block soon. The biggest argument used against filters was CBR and nodes not having potential TXs in their memory syncing slower. This doesn't even have that problem since the TX can't show up in a TX in the near future.
Why are nodes providing long term storage to users? They can't even estimate fees in the future so it's a high likelyhood that the TX will be underfunded when the time comes anyways, or the user will drastically overpay for it. You shouldn't be signing TXs ahead of time like that.
And for what benefit?

All in all, seems like no big deal.

2. Some retards got rugpulled. Anyone falling for crypto airdrop bullshit in 2026 deserves it.
3. Security vulnerabilities. This ones actually serious, but completely unrelated to the name change shenanigans and would've happened either way.

I don't have any sympathies with Trump. I'm with you on most of the shit. It's just not what the actual Epstein story is about as it's being told. The entire online discourse around isn't talking about Epstein the satanic pedophile, its about Epstein the party host Mossad agent.
I don't know any of the Satanism lore and symbolism that "proves" that is what was going on. I'm not dismissing it. But most people don't know much of it.
I generally think Nick is genuine. I really doubt he's a fed. He's too funny and has too much personality for that. He's not ideological, or principled. He's a self admitted pragmatist. He's been very honest about Trump's personal and political failings. He's been very critical of Trump all last year. He's also an extreme contrarian. He might disagree on a minor nuance of a topic and rant about that tiny nuance in the most angry manner on his show, then when asked about it he has a much more nuanced view.
Just last night he was ranting his whole show about the ice shooting, saying Paretti had it coming, even if it wasn't strictly justified, meanwhile all year he's been he's been critical of ICE for their "performative cruelty". He likes to turn the nuance off to get some Ws in the chat. He's a streamer at the end of the day and you lose your mind from ranting into a camera solo every day.

Dude I'm with you on all that, but that is literally not what Epstein is about. That is separate deal that is tacked on to the whole Epstein lore because people connect pedo conspiracies to other pedo conspiracies, but we legit don't know that Epstein was actually involved with any of that. He can be a Mossad agent collecting blackmail, without also running the evil for the sake of evil child rape ring. It makes more sense that he wouldn't IMO. His whole deal seems to be "hey bro I got hella bitches at my party... Oh by the way that one girl was 15, go send another 10 trillion to israel or I'll release the footage".

Dude I believe in capital punishment for adultery. All these degenerate fucks should be executed. That's not the point here.
These people have entire networks for gold digging whores to seduce and fuck the rich and powerful people at these gatherings. There are multiple people who host the types of parties Epstein hosted, where they invite all the rich and powerful people and have hoes all around as props. They are used to fucking all the bitches that catch their eyes. It's a whole different world than ours. Epstein did that but with some underage girls to act as blackmail.
I've always felt something similar in this case to the Diddy and Harvey case where there isn't actually as much substantiated as they imply in the coverage. They imply the worst shit, all the religious and conspiracy theorists run with it and add more shit to it because they already hate the guilty for being sinners, then the trial comes and the charges don't resemble the "lore" created around their crimes. People have never actually looked up what Diddy is guilty of, but they just repeat the baby oil meme and assume he was raping hundreds of kids. Then they are shocked when the trial ends and he's guilty of running a party bus full of whores.
That's why you got all sorts of people who talk about Diddy and Epstein publicly like the cool senior in college who was hosting block parties. They go to get laid and don't think they are doing anything too illegal.
The island and jet are a different story, but most of the people who knew him and went to his parties were most likely as guilty as your average frat boy going to a party to get laid. The "victims" are mostly 14-17, just below age of consent so they can be used as blackmail.
Literally all we know about this case is what the government has told us, and none of it involves little kids. That whole "fucking kids on an island" narrative was extrapolated by people who already believed that was happening before the whole Epstein thing even broke. Everything that we actually know about Epstein is like "she was a child model, her parents signed her to vic secret modeling agency at 12, then by 15 she was fucking the rich people at Epstein's parties". Then now that the party is over, they are acting like they weren't voluntarily attending these parties for years with their parents knowledge.
Everyone is looking for the satanic pedophiles conspiracy to come out, but that is probably relegated to the island, if not completely unrelated to Epstein, if it's even true (probably is). Epstein being a Mossad agent collecting blackmail doesn't have to be the same conspiracy as the satanic pedophile cult ritually raping and murdering children.
IMO being close with Epstein and attending his NYC parties is about the same level as the Monica Lewinsky scandal. It's not all satanic pedophiles.

It's kinda the same deal if you have any other income other than bitcoin gains. Essentially you can sell without capital gains up to the limit of your total federal tax burden.

Use the fiat that you would've spend on taxes, to instead rebuy bitcoin.

I think the market demand for war movies is less from consumers and more from the government. The legitimacy of the state relies on every war since WW1 to be framed as good vs evil. That is necessary to keep the country united under neoliberal rule.
Civil war movie is less necessary now that racism propaganda is out of fashion. Also now that the country is more divided than ever and secession is popular again, a civil war movie would just push that division further.

The people in this thread definitely do. It feels useless until theres a relay for a community you are a part of. Less about technical people and more about niche communities. Also, you have DVM support and that's just tucked away in a side tab, leading me to never use it. I think you should have a way to add DVMs or relay feeds to the main feed dropdown. I mean you have global feed which hasn't been usable in 2 years, and local feed which isn't usable today. DVM, follow pack and relay feeds would be much more useful there right now. At least they are ways to get new users with a curated front page rather than a completely empty feed.

Here's an absolute killer feature for cold wallet software:
Tax accounting with UTXO management.
Many bitcoiners won't sell all their bitcoin. They buy a bunch, use some, save some forever, and sell some on exchanges. The only activity they report are the sells they make on exchanges. It would be very nice if you could manually select all the most expensive UTXOs to send to KYC exchanges.
The features would work by just being able to put a "purchase/sell" label on incoming or leaving TXs, along with the price you bought or sold it. Then also make the change from those TXs also inherit the cost basis when you spend part of it. This way when sending to an exchange, you can scroll through all the coins you have and manually choose the UTXOs with the highest cost basis that you've held for over a year, and conversely, when sending to your hot wallet, choose the ones with the lowest cost basis.
Then add an export tax data button to export only the TXs tied to buying/selling. This is necessary regardless of utxo selection because all tax documents on exchanges are completely useless if you move the coins off platform between buying and selling. If your using more than one exchange, forget it. You have to do it all manually, lining up buys and sells, across multiple years trying to calculate your liability. If all your buys and sells go to/from your cold wallet anyways, this is all you need to calculate and document capital gains.
Please feel free to tag any devs working on cold wallet software.

My current read on the situation is that this is essentially an internal coup within Maduro's own party and military against him, and Trump is happy to take credit for it, and they are happy to give it to him so they aren't seen as traitors by the remaining maduro loyalists. Most likely they will talk up their end and demand Maduro back, only to be tried and executed there. They will go from being as corrupt as Venezuela to merely being as corrupt as India, and Trump will parade this as a massive win and claim Venezuela is great again.
I'd guess this was on the table for a while, but previous neocons didn't want to cut this deal with members of Maduro's regime, instead looking to back the opposition liberal side, but Trump is desperate for a win right now so he went with the deal on the table.

Conflating market rates with fiat fed rates.
If there is a shortage of dollars, market actors will pay more due to borrow due to low supply and high demand.
If there is too many dollars, inflation is going up, and the fed will raise rates to disincentivize borrowing, which is how new money is created.
This is because the fed isn't a market participant who lends based on market rates.
That being said, we never see the first scenario, because there is no dollar shortage ever. You can always borrow at a lower rate from the fed. This kinda can occur with the Eurodollar markets that don't have access to the fed rate, but at the end they can still eventually access the fed rate after paying a couple extra middlemen banks to launder the loans to them.

Thoughts on the Nick Shirley Minnesota Fraud video:
The whole thing pisses me off. It's terrible journalism. The whole video, there isn't any real thing he's showing except the outsides of the buildings and the dollar amounts they received.
The whole thing is sloppy. The whole video they conflate the number of kids the center in licensed for, with how many are reported to be enrolled there.
Every single person they talk to, they are like Jake Tapper, asking questions to provoke them, or to get a "fraudster confronted" clip for YT shorts. They never ask questions that could get them more information. They get random people on the street, feed them a story and get a clip of them agreeing with them. At the very least, hide the camera, hide the mic. Actually go undercover and play out the lil Joey bit. The way they did it was retarded and obviously unserious. Even a legit business wouldn't take them in.
The whole thing is obviously a political front. It's not good journalism, just right wing propaganda. They blame it all on Tim Walz but don't even try to show that it's somehow a worse problem in Minnesota than other states. For the record, I see plenty of old "medical transport" minivans at the mosque here in New York too. I don't ever see them carrying anyone and I doubt they would exist without government funding.
That being said, the timing is very sus. Just a month ago Trump said some shit about Somalis, gets attacked by the media for it, and this is perfectly timed to be pointed to and go "Trump proven right, libs owned" by all the usual suspects like Tim Pool and the like. I think it's more likely than not that the boomer in the video works for Trump on some level and was sent to feed this story to Nick who is obviously an aligned personality who is used to making fake journalism for the right wing machine based off his past videos.
As for what I think is actually happening with the Somalis?
I know how tight knit immigrant communities are. One person discovers a free money hack and in a year everyone is doing it. A lot of times it's fully legal, usually when the money hack is downstream of some government money, it starts as legit and then a lot of them discover the government doesn't actually check and it turns to fraud. I have seen this with Turkish people too where in a couple years, every unemployed housewife takes a 6 month course and becomes a cybersecurity analyst or a Java tester with 5 years of fake experience and gets hired due to a temporary gap in the market for the role after a lot of Indians got deported.
Minnesota pays for poor peoples child care. If you know somalis, they don't send their kids to daycare, they have a lot of them, and their wives don't have stable jobs so they can take care of them at home. You have a massive population of children that the government is willing to pay for, that the parents don't actually want the service for. Most likely, all these daycares have every parent they know signing their kids up for their daycare on paper, and getting the money from the state. The parents don't care because they don't need the childcare anyways and the state doesn't care, because they see money going towards a child's care, and haven't received any complaints for the business. As far as they're concerned, that money was already allocated for the child and there's no extra money being spent, beyond what they would pay to actually send that kid to a daycare.
Most normies have no problem whatsoever with collecting government money. How many Americans collect unemployment when they could find a job, or collect disability with a fake injury and work secretly?
All government spending is fraud waiting to happen, and plenty of people who you wouldn't think of as bad people see nothing wrong with taking from the government since they see it as all powerful.
At the end of the day, it's a very conveniently timed hitpiece on Somalis. They even try to imply violence and that it's somehow connected to violent crime. There are definitely Somalis in gangs but this seems to be simple fraud. They weren't in any danger anywhere in the video and they still spend the whole video acting like they are risking their lives.

If you like the idea, I'd be happy to write a full spec and even help with the coding to implement it. The potential is great for UX. When someone quotes something, you can be sure that they didn't change the quote, since it came from your own choice of library relay. Also, it would start the uploading of books to Nostr which would open the way to implement ereader clients and bring a whole new set of people.

Crashout incoming:
Online "Linux users" deserve all the hate they receive, and much more. I hate these fuckers with a passion. These fuckers do nothing but jerk themselves off over the distro they use and the shitty open source software they run on top of it. They are either unemployed, or work in IT, so they have the time or knowledge to make these shitty softwares actually work and look upon everyone with disdain for having a job. If you ever ask for help, you will only receive help from the unemployed faction and not the knowledgeable faction. They will point you towards using a shitty broken project instead of one that actually works, because it probably had a single feature that they care about that the other didn't at some point. You can't install it for shit. The documentation is from many versions ago and even the getting started section doesn't work anymore. It is entirely made to be used by the 3 people developing it. They don't have a settings menu but a conf file that they don't have a complete list of options for at any point in their docs. No one uses it. Even fewer people have ever asked for help using it, leading to chatgpt not being able to help you even install it.
And if you try to get those same people to help you, they don't. They have nothing but chatgpt advice for you and your stuck with your shitty broken install. They all glaze their broken softwares with 15 total users that take 10 hours and 15 years of unemployment experience to install and then waddle around acting like they are smarter than all the normies for choosing this way. This same experience has happened to me like 4 times with different Linux communities each time and every time it's a complete waste of time for me and when I get it barely working I'm asking if it was worth it.
There are good open source projects that just work. Stremio is amazing. Newpipe is amazing. GrapheneOS is amazing. But there's so many open source projects that are made entirely to be used by the developer themselves and other people using it are an afterthought. FFS the thing I'm trying to make work now doesn't even have release binaries. I'm trying to fucking install something on a headless Linux box and they don't even have compiled binaries on their github. Their fucking documentation has instructions to download and check signatures and they supposedly have a mirror that hosts binaries but the link is broken. Complete unusable dogshit.

Japan is interesting because they had the most insanely productive economy on earth for decades after rebuilding from WW2 due to multiple factors that should be studied by western corporations and states. That being said, they made the mistake of believing the Keynesian lie and it led to them stagnating ever since. They jumped head first at the policy level into the idea that they need a positive inflation rate. This lead to the case where they printed and printed endlessly, trying to make prices go up, as their beast of an economy was pulling prices down. This is how they saw very minimal inflation despite massive debt and QE. They essentially sucked their whole lead out of their economy by money printing, leaving them as a still above average developed nation today, but nowhere near where they were in the 80s and where they were headed. Now they killed off all their gains from the good times and they have nothing but debt to help them deal with the oldest population in the world.

Rather than an arbitrary minimum to be counted, how about in the grey area where it could be a real user with the follow, count it as a fractional follow. This might require some statistics counted with manual classification, but you could develop a weight curve where each follower is counted as the probability that someone of their WoT score is a real person.

Theres already a large spam of to-do list apps. The whole open source ecosystem is built around scarcity. No one was ever trying out your to-do list. I guess some like you try out all kinds of apps because you wanna see what's being built with nostr, but normal people only try apps they need. And if no other app like yours exists, your target users will find and try yours, not even questioning if you vibecoded it or not.
Amateur open source developers have always and will continue to be relevant on the margins of software, in the niche use cases that companies and more experienced developers haven't got to yet. The masses of additional software from vibecoding might push out the margins into smaller and smaller niches, but there will be just as much opportunities there as there ever was.
Honestly it's no different than the influx of Indians into open source projects trying to build up their github resume with shitty commits. In terms of both volume and code quality, I'd say vibe coding is a smaller problem.

There's many companies I know of where the 1-3 dynamic happens, but I don't get what you mean by 4. And 6 never happens. And it's always "independent contractors", not employees.
Also the obvious answer is to just host a dutch auction for each individual job, but no company has the balls to actually do this. They would rather let people compete for scarce work rather than let them bid the work down to zero and get super cheap labor in the process.

Stop seeing it as a replacement for humanity and see it as a tool. It's just a tech that increases productivity. It let's you get more done with less humans which is always a net win.

Why would anyone do that? You're just turning down free money. And I don't see anyone zapping a bigger amount after a error message just called them broke for too small of a zap.
Its an entirely voluntary gesture. People shouldn't act entitled to it. Imagine you were homeless and spitting on someone who only gave you a penny. You have no business disrespecting the person giving you any amount when you are just begging.

If the amish can survive without using tech, we have no excuse. Don't even have to seclude. There's so much money that can be used towards this that's currently wasted.
My city's main masjid runs a Muslim cemetary out in the nearby country. That being said, every part of it is subcontracted out. The entire funeral is managed by an American funeral home, down to the burial and operating the crane to lower the casket. They charge thousands of dollars for it. A rural compound could do this every now and then for much cheaper.
I went to a friends wedding in the middle of nowhere, am hour from any city. It was a farmhouse concept and the setting looked exactly like the new medinah compound. A single building to use as a venue could make good money even if they charge a fraction of the real venues.
Have a few cabins and you got vacation rentals.
This is on top of the obvious, which is farming, which would fetch a premium for being local AND halal.
The main thing is that it can't be owned entirely by a waqf that employs and rents to the people. Every building and business needs to be privately owned and managed, with an HOA agreement that collects the minimum necessary to run the masjid, and dictates that they can't sell to non-muslims.
