New Nostr n8n workflow!
Receive a push notification for when your follows start a new livestream and click to open that in Zap Stream.
See GitHub. Thanks to @Kieran for Zap Stream and @ocknamo for Nostrobots!

Trying to take an Australia-first view is hard when English-language internet is US focussed.

There are more streams going on than I thought. Not too many but enough. This is going to be 🔥

Last week I built an MCP tool that gives agents access to search for code snippets on nostr.
The change in the output LLMs produce with it is MASSIVE; they no longer worked based on a large blob of unweighted code; now I can point them to see EXACTLY how I do a particular implementation under very precise conditions.
Now whenever I see the LLM making a mistake I correct it, publish a code snippet, and the LLM never makes the mistake again.
It’s absolutely wild to see LLMs using interfaces in NDK I literally just implemented and getting their uses right first time.
This is not only useful for nostr development.
This is useful for ALL development.
And requires cryptographic identity, web-of-trust, censorship-resistance and money.
All building blocks that are in our very robust toolbox.
The future is very bright

Wine is fragile and difficult to ship.
Bitcoin is volatile internet money.
Neither seemed like a foundation for a business—
until I found my best customers: Bitcoiners.
🧵 How I took my winery from zero to all-in:
2021
I’d just started selling my wine at farmers markets.
One day, a guy asked, “Do you accept crypto?”
I said, “I’ll take your bitcoin,” and had no idea how I’d actually do that.
He walked away.
But it stuck in my mind.
The first person who ever asked.
I was a Bitcoiner, but didn’t think that had anything to do with wine.
Bitcoiners were 0% of my sales.
2022
I joined Twitter. Went to my first Bitcoin conference.
And the people in it? They were my people.
Honest.

Been looking at streaming.
Streamer broadcast apps (e.g. prism, larix, etc) are dumb pipes that push video from a phone or other device to a server for their viewers.
But streamers don't just want to output video, they want to see and respond to live chat.
No open source streamer apps provide this. Only centralised apps do (e.g. the twitch app provides this but only for twitch chat).
If only there was an open source chat standard that could be integrated into streamer broadcast apps.
Streamers go out of their way to configure their setup, so managing keys would be little extra work.
Viewers can be anon or transient and don't need to know their live chat is riding Nostr rails.
Sovereign streaming seems very aligned to Nostr ethos.

Australian election in four weeks. The choice is
a) a party whose election promises are to implement tax on unrealised capital gains and price fixing at supermarkets, and that implemented the social media ban for minors, compulsory digital IDs, and attempted to pass the misinformation and disinformation bill.
b) the party that implemented lockdowns and border closures.
Seriously

Just discovered WhatNot. Watched stream after stream of people breaking and bidding collectibles.
Seems uniquely fitted to a clone on Nostr rails. Livestream plus chat plus marketplace with zaps payments
(tiny AOVs would makes zaps significantly cheaper than ccard).
US$5bn valuation, $3bn GMV in 2024. Juice seems to be worth the squeeze.

Noticed that my long form notes don't appear in every client, e.g. they are absent from Primal. Is there a good accepted method for working with that? #asknostr
I guess I could create and post a separate note with the picture and slug with link to a third-party site?
