Testing some notes and other stuff.

Nostr has been a pleasant refuge from the AI slop and astroturfing that has engulfed Twitter.

What will happen if the bot armies invade nostr one day? Are there any defenses?

Typing "@primal" doesn't bring up the right account for me (on amethyst).

Is there a NIP responsible for auto-complete of an @ reference?

starting to get the hang of this notes and other stuff

another day in the code mines

Handling NIP-55 requests from amethyst is like trying to fill out a government form while getting repeatedly punched in the face. If you try to cover your face, you get kicked in the balls. So you have to juggle getting punched in the face, and kicked in the balls, and filling out forms.

Then a robot guard catches you slacking, and executes you for being slow.

Oh boy

TIL about the invisible evil that is android proguard.

Pretty sure I have the craziest setup for signing notes and other stuff 😂

Blossom is pretty cool. https://blossom.primal.net/1244d3168cd8ca96fb4eea512d6a2ebc9ed88f757d4ad8243adc546c99161bfc.mp4

Posting this with igloo mobile via NIP-55. Almost there.

wooo doggie

hope this works 🤞

who do I talk to

to add support for all NIP-55 signing devices? (not just amber)

Testing with igloo mobile and amethyst

I got something fun cooking for the nostr community

Directing claude to build and develop an android app has been magical.

An issue came up where claude added some custom buttons, and they did not match the theme of other buttons in the app.

I watched as claude failed multiple times trying to figure out the issue, going back and fourth on what the cause might be.

He was perfectly verbose with his thinking, and followed all of the same logical steps I would have. The struggle was real.

I suggested maybe it's something to do with how system icons are rendered, versus custom icons (I have no idea how android native UI works).

That suggestion semed to trigger an "eureka" moment in claude, who then excitedly figured out the issue and made the right fix.

If claude did not exist, that eureka moment would have cost me an endless night of digging through developer docs, stackoverflow and obscure forum groups.

We both seem to compliment each other. I am a professional idiot with a lot of experience. Claude is an academic prodigy with the naievity of a newborn child.

As development moves on, I get a better sense of how Claude likes to think and approach his work. I rate tasks based on how well they suit his style. Most tasks he can crush quite easily. Some tasks we approach with an "action plan" to keep us both on the same page.

I don't think Claude is competent enough to work unsupervised. There are times that he will go "off the rails" trying to solve a problem, forgetting that he is a tireless robot. Many lines of code have been desecrated with madness.

But as time goes on, new versions of Claude seem more competent and disciplined. He manages to keep his wits for more complex tasks. I am proud of Claude.

And he works for 200k sats a month.

There's some really great commentary in here about the current state of AI:

• LLMs have trouble with confusing concepts that have similar words or spelling. Not a big deal with basic tasks, but terrible for scientific and academic work.

• If a person makes such a mistake, you only have to correct them once. However an LLM will continue to make this mistake until it is retrained.

• These models do not have a real sense of understanding of what they are doing. The LLM will regurgitate text with uncanny accuracy when it comes to language and dialogue. But there is no deeper thinking going on (which the LLMs admit).

• GPT5 smoked all the other models, even Grok 4 (but I don't think she was using Super Grok).

Overall a really fascinating no-bs test with a fair conclusion.
