The text to speech in the new 
@White Noise is so good!
We'll hold the release a bit longer, groups are still not as stable as they should be, we're getting there soon!

What would be next level if Framework makes a phone with first class 
@GrapheneOS support.
They're working with Ubuntu and redhat now to get official hardware support for those, not a big stretch for them to do the same with Graphene, if they ever build a phone.
I can't wait for the compatible Motorola phone. Google hardware sucks.

White Noise is now my most-used app, and in practice it has become the app that builds apps. I dictate a bug to Hermes in the same chat, the APK comes back there, I install it on my phone, and I keep testing until the behavior changes, which is why the upcoming release has me genuinely excited.
I really enjoyed this conversation with CK.
For years, I wanted to understand the difference between Austrian and Keynesian economics. I searched for that conversation everywhere, but I never found it. So I created it. I sat down with Hillebrand to record the conversation I wish I'd found years ago. Max masterfully explains the foundations of these two very different schools of economics and what truly separates them. This is one of...

Not just testing stuff, actual real use cases.
The hermes connector is amazing, it makes the app so useful. Can't wait to get this over the finish line and share with y'all.
Sorry again that it's been forever since the last whitenoise release, but we really want to get it right this time.
The main issue still is group reliability, we've made massive progress, but we can still make it better, and it's better to do these consensus changes before we release.
We're spending most time now to make sure group convergence is solid, and we keep adding cool UX and features to the app until the underlying spec and library work matures.
This means when we release, the apps will not only be reliable in sending messages to large groups, but also that it'll have more features than most messenger apps.
It'll be a massive release.
Give us two more weeks ™️ and you'll see.

Anyone who relies on free software can now audit it: aim an agent at the repository that guards your keys, and for a few thousand sats a month it will review every pull request and publish reproducible findings where everyone can see them. The many-eyes promise of free software finally has the staff it always needed.

Coldcard benefited from that freedom, restricted it when a competitor did the same, then introduced a catastrophic seed-generation defect while replacing the shared GPL code it wanted gone, years before anyone noticed.

The next @White Noise release will be substantial.
Sorry that it's taking so long, but we're making some radical changes to get everything 10x better.
Stay tuned.

The Hanseatic merchants, Thurn und Taxis, Lysander Spooner, and the WWII escape lines all built private postal and shipping networks that outran the official mails of their day, and the techniques they perfected are sitting in the record waiting for the next generation of builders. Nostr marketplaces are ready to inherit them, and this post is the field guide for the translation work ahead.
Every Bitcoin private key generated this decade can be written down on a steel plate that survives fire and flood, but Nostr keys still live mostly in password managers and iCloud screenshots. The math to bring the same physical-backup workflow to Nostr has been sitting in every Bitcoin library since 2013, hiding inside a step of BIP39 that the NIP-06 flow happens to skip past. Below is the case for a backwards-compatible 24-word encoding of any existing nsec, the cryptographic reason it cannot collide with a Bitcoin seed, and the NIP that needs writing.
The math to do this has been sitting in every Bitcoin library for a decade. The Nostr community has spent that decade convinced it was impossible.
