I've used gpt4 as a subscriber and I run some models from huggingface locally on Linux with llama.cpp through the oobabooga interface. I feel like Gpt4 is smarter and can definitely hold a long conversation better than anything you'd be able to run locally. I've chatted with it about all sorts of topics on a 2 hour commute to work several times. The models that I can run locally (30b) are fun for a while, but then they will run out of context window or something and drift off topic or start repeating. Conversations with a local uncensored model do feel like they have more human responses at times with the right prompt and character for a while, though.. maybe it is the lack of guardrails or something. For me, I use openai Gpt4 for real consultation and inspiration, local models for fun. You can run a 30b gguf model at reasonable speeds locally on an ssd with an old Nvidia Tesla P40 off eBay if you don't want to spend a lot on VRAM/GPU power.. that's what I've been doing.. just read up on how to get them to work in consumer PCs (bios settings, power adapter and cooling).
Nice! It's cool that SBW is back! But I don't think the developer is a fan of LN anymore and removed support. :( It's too bad, I really liked the lightning implementation in old SBW and OBW. I'll need to start playing with the other popular wallets, I guess.
How about a programming sub? Seems like a lot of folks making cool stuff here.. they might need someplace to find like minded devs to talk dev stuff with.
There is value in storing a record of ownership on the Bitcoin blockchain. That record can contain non-bitcoin data. All of this is being done by following the rules.. it isn't like some Bitcoin flaw is being exploited. So using this awesome thing, the way it is designed, to do something useful. Put me squarely in the "I like this" category. I feel like people who loudly complain about NFTs and want to change Bitcoin to confirm to their own ideas of how it should work or telling you that you are doing Bitcoin wrong are not doing any favors for the community. That said, I don't care for owning and trading digital art NFTs.
Maybe an unpopular point of view, but in some places every spend is a taxable event. Folks that wish to be legally compliant might be more hesitant to spend when each spend is another line item to track on your IRS 8949 form.
Started working on nostrPilot, which will be my take on a nostr client. I'm not a big TikTok fan, but I do like the navigation and find the interface intuitive. So I'm trying to implement something similar in an Android/iOS nostr client. Just started, but have some fun ideas that I want to experiment with.
I've had so many bind blowing conversations with that thing over the last few weeks! Like you, I've been having it help with code. I've even pasted in specs and documentation for things it didn't know and created something new with them. BUT it has also outright lied to me several times by just making up functions that don't exit. I've also had a few longer coding conversations with it where I told it to remember the state of the code so we could revert back to it later if we changed something that I didn't like. Reverting worked, for a while.. and then it started reverting back to a state that the code was never in and I had to start over.
And now I'm referring to "ChatGPT and I" as "we" inadvertently, ha!
I am "for" Ordinals. I'm not an art fan, but there are use cases here and Bitcoin hasn't changed to support them. If you want to change Bitcoin and come up with your own thing that isn't Bitcoin anymore and doesn't support anything like Ordinals, go fork off. There is a word for the kind of coin that you will be creating when you wind up not having the longest chain!
People fussed when non-financial information was put into OP_RETURN as well, now those people have something new to fuss about.
No, it doesn't follow SLIP-39. This app doesn't have anything specific to mnemonic codes built in. My use case was more generic. I use the command line tool by B. Pottering ( http://point-at-infinity.org/ssss/ ) and wanted to be compatible with that. This app makes use of the ssss-js lib by Gabriel Berca: https://www.npmjs.com/package/ssss-js
It would be cool to tie in with nostr somehow.. not sure how that would work, though. Like is there really any expectation of a message's longevity on a relay?
That's an interesting idea. Are you thinking like a message would be split across multiple relays and then require someone to read from the same batch of relays? Would you want this because you believe that there is a danger of a malicious relay altering content?
Does your machine have a serial port? If you are building the kernel yourself, you can enable the serial console and connect with a terminal program from another computer, like the cavemen used to. Then get ssh working from there without messing around with moving the drive around.
There was mention of social media posts with the cowboy hats in this episode. What about a NIP-58 nostr badge at different levels?
I think that it is a definite maybe.
But it will have more of a struggle if the Apple app store and Google play store decide to blanket reject any new apps that are nostr related for whatever reason. It is already a pain for indie developers to get approved with normal user generated content. If nostr gets a few bad media stories regarding undesirable content, they could decide to crack down. And most people still depend on those app stores for apps.. and "the future of social media" probably depends on most people. I'm excited for nostr, though!
