wonder if a dynamic price structure for territories could help with this. e.g. price territories as a proportion of total monthly zaps on SN
travelling might be considered a rite since many young people from the west take 6 months off after studying to travel the world
back in the day at my first job at a grocers shop, I'd go in every morning and help put out the days produce. running from back of house to front with boxes of cabbages, carrots, bananas, onions etc. I'd been doing this job for about a year and by this point was makings many times the amount of money i earned here by building and selling flash games. I wanted to quit, but had been putting it off for weeks now, because the boss was kinda scary to 16 year-old me, and I was avoiding the uncomfortable conversation with her. one morning my shoes (for a reason that escapes my memory) were wet. maybe it was raining the day before, or they'd been in the wash. anyway, i slung on some of my stepdads shoes and rushed to work. the shoes felt fine for a few minutes as i walked to work, but quickly they started to cause me a lot of pain. they were two sizes too small and way too tight. by the end of my hour long shift i was in agony, i told my boss without hesitation: I quit. pain can be a powerful motivator.
buying a home in the UK without taking on significant debt is pretty much impossible for the average person. because houses are so expensive, and for general quality of of life and cost of living reasons, i left the UK about 3 years ago. I now already own a home out right, paid for in cash and renovated it myself. current monthly expenses are about €100 for all bills, taxes, insurance etc. in the UK this stuff would be 10x
I'm with you, actually spend the time to teach you kids financially literacy. giving your kids an inheritance (more freedom and options) is so obvious a good thing, anyone who cannot see that is on the wrong track. the whole point of being a good parent is to fix the things that were broken in your childhood and heal generational trauma. leaving your kids better off than your parents left you is a part of that. the whole "they'll squander it" mentality reflects badly on you, the parent, it's arrogant.
yeah good point. I'll probably just disabled it to keep things simple.
p.s. we fixed the bug you found. the few historic zaps that weren't showing up are now allocated to their correct owners.
you should see a new item in your activity history for the missing zap. the amount you earned for that zap will be 9 sats instead of 8 sats because it's an old zap, and old zaps had a slightly different fee structure.
we need to do some working making it clear what's happening with the zaps, e.g. where sats are going and the splits. we'll make some changes to the activity page to improve the ux!
oh yeah! you'd dead right, that's a bug. it looks like this bug affects a small amount of memes that we created very early in the development of zap.meme. the data for those memes in the database is a malformed and so some early zaps that we sent while testing were not recorded properly. thankfully we should have all the data we need to fix the issue for those historic zaps.
I'll put in some work this afternoon to fix the historic zaps and put the issue right. thanks for letting us know!
so yeah! zaps are working as expected, it's just some early historic ones that are malformed. we just sent you 5 zaps, let us know if you see them :)
btw, you'll see the zaps come in as 8 sats, not 10:
- 1% (min 1 sat) fee goes to zap.meme - we're thinking about what to do with the fees, we're planning something like the SN reward pool!
- 10% (min 1 sat) goes to the emoji creator - the vast majority of the emoji on the app were created in another project i shut down 3 years ago. so we can't send the owners sats for those, what we do instead is send the sats to the reward pool if we don't know the emoji creator, but if it's a new emoji and we know the creator, yeah then they get 10%!
@0xbitcoiner we just shipped Nostr login. we'll do a proper announcement this Sunday, but just thought we'd hit you up directly since you were waiting for it :)
wiring up Nostr auth into zap.meme today :) the stacker.news codebase has been a really useful reference!
ok, so i took a look and here's what's happening:
this is your zap.meme profile - any memes you upload directly on zap.meme will be under this profile
https://zap.meme/p/zap/spotcr
this is your stacker.news profile - any memes you upload on SN's Meme Monday will be shown here
https://zap.meme/p/sn/spot
this is your combined profile - all your memes will be shown here
https://zap.meme/p/spotcr
p.s. your SN profile picture wasn't showing, so we fixed that and now it's visible :)
p.p.s. we're still working on the UX of profiles, which is why it's still not so obvious how they work. we're gunna be tweaking the UI of the app to make this clearer in the next few days. any feedback welcome!
p.p.p.s. reducing the meme creation fee from 100 to 10.... change incoming....
your profile is here: https://zap.meme/p/sn/TNStacker
it looks like the signin is sending you to an invalid url.

I saw you tried to claim you accounts on Monday, the claim process didn't work as expected for you 3. I've fixed the bug and have pinged you guys a few sats on zap.meme, can you try and claim you account again? Let me know how it goes this time 💌
