Anyone able to lend a hand on getting my Umbrel up and running again? Raised a thread on their community page, seeing a conflict with docker.

0 sats \ 1 reply \ @ek 3 Nov 2023

Maybe try docker network rm umbrel_main_network. Docker usually recreates networks if they don't exist.

No guarantees though, run on your own risk, lol

Turns out removing the env file and reconfiguring Umbrel helped overcome all the kinks and blockers I was seeing.

George hid some fun stuff in the story. Most people don't get it. I have many stories of people not getting it.

The thing people don't get about movies is that when done well they can communicate ideas in ways that sneak past our prejudices. Star Wars is a story about the evils of centralized power. The problems with rebellions and how they usually recreate what they claim to want to destroy.

Not much to tell. It posts as a long form note type (forget the type number). I'm not sure how many clients support it but I'm using habla.news. I hadn't looked at habla in a while. Very cool client. Supports drafts which was kinda surprising to me but I'm guessing it posts to a private relay. Nostr has so much potential. Bullish on the protocol. Its more than a Twitter replacement.

No the other way around.

Change your settings to cross post
Post a discussion on SN
SN will ask your browser extension perm to cross post. Alby or nost2x for example
You post on SN is published to the relays as long form content.

After nothing but zap rewards in October, it's been nothing but post rewards in November.

Is there any chance the random number generator is picking one value for each month, instead of each day?

182 sats \ 3 replies \ @ek 3 Nov 2023

No, it's definitely flipping a coin every day:

const heads = Math.random() < 0.5
// if this category is selected, double its proportion
// if it isn't select, zero its proportion
const itemRewardMult = heads ? 0 : 2.0
const upvoteRewardMult = heads ? 2.0 : 0

0 sats \ 2 replies \ @Undisciplined 3 Nov 2023

Odd coincidence then

182 sats \ 1 reply \ @ek 3 Nov 2023

Yes, or there is indeed something wrong with the RNG. Reusing seed or something? But no idea how that could happen. It's not even possible to seed the RNG ourselves.

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @Undisciplined 3 Nov 2023

I didn't immediately see in the code why the monthly hypothesis was ruled out, but I'm guessing it's run daily and that's why it should be different everyday.

I think those seeds are sometimes generated from the computer's clock, so my last grasp at vindication is that maybe it's pulling the month for the seed, rather than the milliseconds.

I was going to ask if there's software / a service that makes it easy-ish to set something up where people can email you or send you a message somehow but only if they send you sats over and above some reserve price.

But then I thought: maybe that could be an aspect of the DM feature on SN? People can only DM you if they zap a certain amounts of sats? Not that I'd want to turn that on in SN for my actual self, but it does seem a useful use case to solve somehow, esp going forward.

@k00b and @ekzyis, thoughts?

Living near New York City I have been inundated with Hamilton propaganda for years. I have loathed Hamilton the historical figure for most of my adult life. I have been offered tickets and I repeatedly refuse to go. I know I'm a conspiracy theorist at heart anyway, but I believe the creation and success of the musical was no accident. Making this destructive asshole a hero really irks me. So, I applaud your efforts. I must say I can't help, since I don't know any of the songs. P.S. Burr- now there's a hero.

I think that is technically a sports injury… usually take 5 days to start to heal but could be weeks to properly repair.

Thanks. I shall not take anything you utter as medical advice, just musings of a friend. Sounds about right. It's feeling better finally after four or five days. When a member of a pro sports team I root for gets this injury I always assume they're dogging it. Not anymore.

It's extremely useful for my work.

I have a background in physics but my day-to-day is in software these days. I know just enough to be dangerous, but I'm first to admit that I'm no expert and have no formal training. I am no software engineer. What's worse is that I'm part of a small start-up company and I'm the only person who has any coding experience whatsoever.

ChatGPT is extraordinarily useful for filling the gaps in my knowledge. For example, just now I wanted to explore introducing some module testing into my code. I gave ChatGPT a snippet of what I've been working on, and asked it how I might go about developing some tests. Bam! 5 seconds later it gives me something to work with. That would have taken like 30 minutes if I put it together from Google searches etc.
