Stacker News and Nostr complement each other beautifully. While Nostr has the quick wits, opinions, pictures, hints of boobs or deep thoughts from people around the world, Stacker News has the value sorted recent events and news creating a base for "current knowledge worth knowing". Even better, the knowledge is "peer-criticized" in the comments. The combination of the two then creates a virtuous cycle with clearly aligned incentives.

From Nostr posts you may find interesting links worth posting on SN and from SN posts you may gain the knowledge to show off your smarts on Nostr. In both directions you get paid for doing the "desirable", you get to voluntarily pay for things you like and you are forced to pay for doing things that are "undesirable".

Isn't this beautiful?
