You think "complexity" is "proliferating standards and granular tags". I think that is the easy part. Complexity to me is made by force-sharing and re-using incompatible but similar specs just to avoid duplication. That's the real complexity. Forcing existing kinds/content types that were not made for it into a given user experience. That's the real complexity. The number of NIPs is only a complex thing if your goal is to code all of them. If your goal is to just do one really well, then there is nothing complex about it. And most apps just need to do a few of them.

The difficult part is indexing them by type so you can fetch one without the other. If Olas fetches kind 1s, it has to filter out everything that doesn't fit the olas format. On the other hand, a client can support as many kinds as it wants. So granular distinctions are generally good.

Just YOLO merged PR #230 (we're currently on PR 1818), which introduces NIP 66 for relay monitoring, authored by nostr:nprofile1qydhwumn8ghj7amgv4shgtngv9c8q7t5v9mx2unw9e3k7tcpr4mhxue69uhkcatwvd5xymmc9eekzmnywa5kx6pwveshymf0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnw3ezucnpdejz7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcqyrnhrtctqhywjh7d7mltx5q9gnf0k8xd8prc3605jzanac5w3mtx7sz53ac.
This PR has been in the works for over two years. It's honestly hilarious that it hasn't been merged yet, since we're currently on version 7 of the spec.
I find this NIP interesting personally, because even though uptake has been slow (I don't have it integrated into either Coracle or Flotilla, although several clients do use it), it's going to be very helpful in scaling the relay network by providing metadata on which relays are most reliable, and for what purposes.
It's also done in a very nostr-esque way; basically "relay monitors" (which self-advertise) publish kind`30166` events in order to report on relays. Anyone can publish these reports, which gives us the best of both monitor reputation and openness.

As a survivor of a communist regime, I am telling you this: the only place on Earth where there's no communism is where you receive NOTHING from any government.
If a government is "giving" you something, it means that "something" was stolen from somebody else.
Even the muricans are living in a communist regime, no matter how proud they are about the "land of the free"... they are just getting drunk with water. Where is a government, there's communism.
The only true capitalism is anarcho-capitalism.

If divergence in UX justifies divergence in data formats, then every distinct UX would have its own data format, and there would be no interoperability.
On the other hand if semantics justify data formats (e.g. we've arbitrarily decided that short form video vs long form video are different concepts on an ontological level), then divergent UX can interoperate.
The difficult thing is deciding what the trade-off should be between simplicity (by collapsing multiple types of thing into a single standard) and complexity (proliferating standards and granular tags for more complete support of more use cases).
The limiting factor is simplicity. Once a spec becomes too complex, the number of implementations drops significantly. Therefore, in order to support interoperability, applications have to interoperate on a level below their desired UX, and supplement either through inferring additional meaning from the base data formats (which logic may diverge between clients) or by creating proprietary data formats to support the client's UX.

I actually hate mobile apps. Do you want to be cucked by Apple or cucked by Google? Or if you prefer, you can try React Native and by cucked by both Apple and Google at the same time. It feels like being stuck in the crossfire of two evil corporations. It's the app store industrial complex. Because they control the distribution platform, so they can bully you into conforming to their arbitrary demands.
Computers were built by hackers, and Free Software fought against its control for decades. Now to many people, smartphones are the ONLY computers, which were first built as TOYS. Now we're still working backwards to having freedom on them.

strange arguments. first - not everything was perfect with biden and ukraine. don't want to go long but there were conflicts, there were a lot of discrepancies between what was promised and what was received.
second - I can't go into the head of Zelensky but I can imagine that if there was his desire he would never go and meet trump. because we all in ukraine know how trump and vance treat ukraine. The mere fact of going and meeting them is humiliating. he just doing this because our country need help.
I live in city which daily shelled by russians. If we don't have ammunition for Anti-missiles systems way more people would die.
so. conclusion - we will be happy not to ask US about anything because I see that some people in US think that we just getting easy money from you.
we will be fighting with russians with US or without. now for sure without US

Look how poorly crypto does historically as long term worth preservation, and how throughout the years, even up to now, they have had larger and larger influence just to keep some value. They are running out of influencial people to pump their coins.

REAGAN & SATOSHI:
The Ideological Bridge
🟧The Reagan-Bitcoin Connection
Bitcoin's ideological roots can be traced directly to Ronald Reagan's economic philosophy. Bitcoin emerged as a digital manifestation of Reaganite principles, particularly the distrust of government intervention in markets and the belief in decentralized economic power.
Bitcoin was conceived in 2008 during the financial crisis, with its Genesis block containing the message: "The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks". This timing was significant as it represented a response to government bailouts of banks—a scenario that contradicted free-market principles championed by Reagan.
The cryptocurrency movement embodies core Reaganite values:
⚡️Anti-government intervention:
Bitcoin was designed specifically to operate outside government control, creating a monetary system that cannot be censored or manipulated by central authorities.
⚡️Free market fundamentalism:
Bitcoin represents the ultimate free market currency, with its value determined purely by market forces rather than government monetary policy.
⚡️Libertarian principles:
The crypto ideology is deeply libertarian, viewing government as an obstacle rather than a solution—a perspective that aligns perfectly with Reagan's famous quote that "government is the problem".
🟧 From "Trust, But Verify" to "Don't Trust, Verify"
Reagan famously popularized the Russian proverb "trust, but verify" (doveryai no proveryai) during nuclear disarmament negotiations with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev in the 1980s. He used this phrase repeatedly, particularly at the signing of the INF Treaty in December 1987, emphasizing the need for verification mechanisms even when engaging in diplomatic trust.
The Bitcoin community took this concept and evolved it into the more radical "don't trust, verify" motto. This transformation perfectly encapsulates Bitcoin's fundamental philosophy:
- Reagan's approach acknowledged the necessity of some initial trust in human relations, with verification as a safeguard
- Bitcoin's approach eliminates the need for initial trust entirely, replacing it with cryptographic verification
This evolution reflects Bitcoin's core innovation: the elimination of trusted third parties in financial transactions. Where Reagan saw verification as complementary to trust, Bitcoin sees verification as the complete replacement for trust—a system where mathematical proof supersedes human promises.
🟧 Reagan's Economic Legacy in Bitcoin
Reagan's presidency (1981-1989) defined economic life in the US and worldwide for 40 years, establishing principles that Bitcoin later embodied:
- Prioritization of free trade and free markets
- Emphasis on entrepreneurship over government management
- Reduction of government's role in economic affairs
- Belief in the power of capital to operate freely without regulation
Bitcoin advocates, while claiming revolutionary status, are essentially promoting an acceleration of Reaganite economic principles. The cryptocurrency represents "Ronald Reagan's revenge" in that it continues his economic vision at the exact moment when both political parties have begun rediscovering the value of government intervention in markets.
🟪 Political Implications
The connection between Reagan's ideology and Bitcoin has significant political implications. Trump's evolution from crypto skeptic to advocate illustrates this relationship—he initially called Bitcoin "a scam" but later pledged to make America "the crypto capital of the world" and create a "strategic national bitcoin reserve".
This shift aligns with traditional Republican values of deregulation and market-driven innovation. The evolution from Reagan's "trust, but verify" to Bitcoin's "don't trust, verify" represents a hardening of conservative economic principles in the digital age—taking Reagan's skepticism of government and transforming it into a technological system that makes government intervention mathematically impossible.
#Bitcoin thus stands as both an homage to and evolution of Reagan's economic vision—a digital manifestation of his free-market principles taken to their logical conclusion in the information age.
Thus I believe Satoshi was inspired by Reagan.
