Awesome work on anagram.chat. Could be the killer app for Nostr?! The video is a great explainer - love to see the ATM flashing away :-). 11k now. Will read up on NIP-171 and the calling protocol too.

Lightning Piggy v1.4.1 is out ⚡🐷
New
• Notifications screen. A bell on Home shows unread alerts; tap it to see the last 30 days of messages, payments, zaps and Piglet finds, open any of them, or mark all as read. • Clearer relay settings. Account → Nostr now leads with Your relays and DM inbox relays, each showing a live connection dot; app defaults and geo-cache relays sit under Advanced. • Backup image servers. Account → Nostr → Image servers (Blossom): add backup servers and pick a primary. Uploads switch to a backup if the primary is down and are copied to the others. Publish shares the list with other Nostr apps.
Improved
• Message alerts open that conversation, even ones that arrived while the app couldn't read them yet, instead of just the Messages list. • Opening a chat clears its alerts, so the dot on the app icon goes away. • Group chats show their NIP-17 tag, like one-to-one chats.
Fixed
• Relay dots show the real connection status instead of always red. • Marmot group invites (e.g. from White Noise) now say "not supported yet" instead of showing unreadable text.

Can someone please reverse engineer Fusion 360 :-)
Shame you use LightSpark. Not sure why, but payments over Lightning fail 100% of the time unless I create a private channel to LightSpark. However, LightSpark refuses to send balances out down the channel. Trying to rebalance we see 'TemporaryChannelFailure' or just route not found (we have plenty of liquidity and good routes out that are well balanced). Paying on-chain triggers KYC checks that need screenshots etc etc.

Interesting video:

Not just about A.I. but was interested in "externalities" concept - i.e. costs that are not on companies balance sheets (e.g. pollution), resulting in some companies can look very profitability, but have a large cost to the rest of society.
I wonder whether the government should be a stakeholder in companies above a certain turnover. Rather than taking taxes, they take dividends but also ensure that companies externalities are indeed on the balance sheet and the costs are paid to society (a "tax"). This would mean that the government can have a say on the board with respect to the interests of wider society. Maybe even special voting rights. This should also incentive governments to help create an environment for most companies to be profitable. Or maybe this approach is too "CCP"? Maybe this role should be done by A.I. so less susceptible to corruption?
I'd be interested in your take on this
:-)

Having good success with Reverie, a concept graph data structure for memories that works like your hippocampus (as far as I understand), with nodes of people, places, companies and the relationships between them. Allows agents to sleep and tidy up their memories and look for new connections.
Would be great to get your feedback how this work with other clankers. Also has a Hermes plugin.

I would like it if we can see NIP-99 gamma market spec products under nPub profiles. This should appear as a new Products tab along with "Notes" and "Notes amd Replies"
Products should be shown in a grid format. With the display image, and the name and price underneath.
Post of new products should also appear in the main feed timeline.
For implementation reference sites please see:
And it's respective open source repo.
Above is for the agent implemention :-)

Today I built a visualisation in our agent portal to help me do brain surgery on our agents. They use our Reverie agent memory (an MCP server for a Neo4J data structure). You can use the MCP server today with your agents (open-source) here:

Will be releasing a plugin for Hermes to use this too:
