Did you know there's a bunch of original fiction on Stacker.News?
Check these out:
- The Rogue Scholar - The Rogue to Victory (Dune-esque Sci-Fi / Fantasy) by jbschirtzinger
- Who Brought the Steak Tartare? (Hitchhiker's Guide-esque humorous sci-fi) by cleophas
- I'm writing 'Submersible,' (Randian-esque Sci-Fi) a SN exclusive serial story with puzzles in it you can solve for bounties and a way for you to have input into the direction the story takes as it goes.
- Nutall is a published poet, and reposts his poetry here. A recent example:
E... A... R... S... - Cryptosensei wrote a children's book for his son and a poem: unresolved between a thai lad and I
Bonus:
- Siggy 47 is territory owner of ~booksandarticles. He posts a Newsletter there that features stuff like this, and more. Here is the latest issue.
- Here's an interview with an author of a book using Bitcoin as a central plot device, describing the book but also giving a lot of good advice about writing:
The First Thriller Novel About Bitcoin with Steve Berry posted by TheWildHustle
FYI the genre / descriptions above were chosen by me, not by the author.
There must be many more, feel free to alert me to them and leave yours in the comments.
Most people fart around 14 to 23 times a day!

Continuing to work on the new editor. First step will be to get it to do all the things I want, then it’s making the toolbar UI/UX good, then allowing people to opt out of it and use the old markdown method instead.
Looks like we're at an hour so thank you everyone for the questions! It was fun. Stay humble and stack sats.
The future on LN is bright and we've go so much to build. If you ever want to chat DMs are open and be on the look out for when we start hiring next if interested. Have a great day! God bless
First blowjob. Will never forget it. Took 3 shots of tequila to get the taste out of my mouth.
For real though it’s when I fully grokked bitcoin- couldn’t sleep for weeks because it hit me so hard.
The obvious benefit to the spec is easier integrations for wallet or system builders into LSPs. Of course it will be positive when it becomes completely integrated across the ecosystem. Second-order effects could likely be more participation from new players in providing liquidity. More LSPs, more liquidity, etc.
tbh I don't really think about legal proposals. I'm not sure it's a great use of time.
In general, my preference is to comply by technologically circumventing them. Non-custodial wallets will circumvent some proposals, and decentralizing SN will circumvent others.
Reasonable legislation will exempt small txs. In the US at least international currency can be spent below a certain threshold and not be considered taxable. I'm not sure about elsewhere.
We'll see I guess!
This could use a short video with a demo!
It's hard to understand what is NWC and how does it relate to SN.
10 sats? You were generous out of the gate! I was zapping 1 sat for probably the first two weeks. I remember making a complementary comment on a post without zapping at all, and getting gently corrected by an experienced stacker.
I don’t think kids should be given big gifts- your gift to them is to show them how to work and save their own sats
This is terrible for the open source community...
Wow, blast from the past.
I must protest your description: Fyookball's article is complete garbage. His model for the Lightning Network is nonsense and on basis of that non-existent foundation all that math is complete eyewash.
Please refer to the reply I wrote back then:

Ditch the idea of subs all together and go with a tag system. Obviously this would be a monumental change but it is food for thought.
Instead of having a Bitcoin sub, a privacy sub, a jobs sub, a development sub, an AI sub, an Art sub, etc, you could make it so one tag per post is required, the remaining tags come at an increasing cost
This way I can select tags in interested in and even merge tags to curate threads more specific to my interests.
I might be particularly interested in AI+technology or Bitcoin+development and Bitcoin+art but I may want to blacklist AI+art.
This could eliminate the need for cross posting and having a million subs for specific different reasons. If I'm just searching Bitcoin, I'd see all posts with that tag except for combos I've told the algo I don't like. Maybe if I search privacy, I'll see Nostr+privacy posts and Bitcoin+privacy posts and privacy+tech post.
Moderation would become increasing difficult with however more tags were introduced. A system where we can downvote with sats that would maybe be redistributed to positive contributors could lead to a pretty decently self regulated ecosystem.
Just an idea of had about improving Reddit in the past that could be applied here (potentially) but I'm no backend guy so I imagine this is a big ask
Great clip @kr, when I watched the episode I definitely wanted to discuss this exact section of the episode on SN, lol
My thoughts:
I like that he is a very skeptical person but I hope he is not too confident in his own skills. Developers can tend to think "I can do that myself better!" only to realize that they don't. To me, landing in the big blockers camp first looks like an indicator for this "overconfidence".
Nevertheless, I am definitely looking forward to if/what Burak will deliver with Ark
Adding to all of what @ek and you said, I was also thinking about Albi in the sense that it's a fully integrated onboarding platform to Nostr. I'm not using Albi, but when I first tried to get into Nostr it was a nice option because it gave me everything: the wallet, the Nostr keys, and the Nostr logging functionality. In that sense SN would work as a nice port from which one could start to navigate the Nostr sea. It seems to me you've all for SN to work like that. I actually saw and started using SN because I liked that the community seemed like a nice way to prep and warm up to jump into Nostr, so even the community itself aligns with that objective.

I think it’s about double what they’re reporting now
This is a quick way to get muted and outlawed son.
You will earn little to no sats posting like this. I’d suggest changing strategies.
