Hi 🙂 I’m new here, learning about Lightning and earning sats. I’m from Argentina 🇦🇷 Any tips for beginners?

TIPSTIPS

  1. Don't do this:
  2. Write something interesting for us. If we like it, you'll earn some sats. If we don't you won't earn sats.

@k00b, question about HOMEPAGE_POSTS_SATS_FILTER:

I think I'm losing posts right now despite having -Infinity for posts filter due to this? (I think you said the other day that this enforces max(user.filter,HOMEPAGE_POSTS_SATS_FILTER)?) For example, I had to browse new to find Scoresby's post (#1435817) twice (also my bad because I was all over the place due to being triggered by notification).

What does enforcing this on top/posts/day prevent? It's anyway paginated?

Search is worlds better now

reply

It works better sometimes (and worse other times) is always the problem with search.

If I want to do this right, I need to create a lot of test searches then tune our search until it picks the right stuff for most of them. I haven't done this yet, which is why our search feels unpredictable.

  • Eventual consistency (shoot first apologize later)
  • Graceful degradation (try to apologize as little as possible)

Exactly! But now Open Source.

Yo @justin_shocknet, quick two questions:

  1. What's this mean?

  1. What's 'ndebit discoverable' for? Do I need it on to use this wallet here on SN?
reply

Sources down should be cleared now, had a brief outage

You do not need to make the ndebit discoverable for SN, you can just use the ndebit string for outbound...

Discoverable publishes it to the Lightning Address bridge for services to request payments from you, SN I don't think added support for that anyway.

reply

I already added SN to 'linked apps' but today it asked for spending permission again. Doesn't SN always use the same npub? @k00b

reply

Was it on different devices? SN doesn't have a service-level npub, their wallet connector lives client side so each device you use SN on is a different app unless sync'd somehow

I think to sync the connection across devices it needs to be decrypted on the second device with "unlock wallet"

reply

Did it on a different device, but I unlocked the wallet using the seed from the first one. Thanks for clearing that up, maybe @k00b can add something to it.

reply
1 sat \ 3 replies \ @k00b 15h

It'd use the same ndebit across devices.

reply

Does hitting 'save' on the wallet config without changing anything trigger a new 'requesting key'? I think I just did that!

reply

the ndebit is static, but the requesting key will differ unless the SN wallet connector is sync'd across them.

Since you initiate the connection client side each client would have its own secret, but I understand "unlock wallet" on the second device to do the sync of this

reply
18 sats \ 0 replies \ @k00b 14h

We encrypt and sync both the ndebit and secretKey

export default [
  {
    name: 'CLINK',
    displayName: 'CLINK',
    send: false,
    fields: [
      {
        name: 'noffer',
        label: 'noffer',
        type: 'password',
        placeholder: 'noffer...',
        required: true,
        validate: clinkValidator('noffer')
      }
    ],
    relationName: 'walletRecvClink'
  },
  {
    name: 'CLINK',
    displayName: 'CLINK',
    send: true,
    fields: [
      {
        name: 'ndebit',
        label: 'ndebit',
        type: 'password',
        placeholder: 'ndebit...',
        required: true,
        validate: clinkValidator('ndebit'),
        encrypt: true,
        editable: false
      },
      {
        name: 'secretKey',
        encrypt: true
      }
    ],
    relationName: 'walletSendClink'
  }
]

yeah, the issue with the current ot is that I cannot see which word you solved. Why not enable X/tweet share too and give the player both options?

😅 So good that you got to the "Xacks" so early. There's nothing more terrifying (in a guessing game) than getting that or "Xiles" on the last two guesses.

Seeing this, I'm definitely thinking that I'm going to change it to a screenshot for the nostr share. I kept thinking, if that's such a good idea, why doesn't NYT do it? I just realized its because everybody is guessing the same word every day.

You claim to be 'living on The Bitcoin Standard' but refuse to attach wallets and so are not maximising your use of sats here on SNs.

Your words and claimed position do not match your actions.

You are a hypocrit.

Attach wallets and start supporting the LN and sats denominated saturation of SNs economy- or remain a blatant hypocrit!
