What if we could do one time notary verification of identity, tie it to a unique NPUB/NSEC and use it to sign/verify legal documents? Obviously this would be separate from a social NPUB and used exclu...

Maybe the flow is Nostr app (or key holding app to:

sign with selected identity,

the app uses open timestamps to lock that signature into a specific place in time,

the signed file along with the timestamp proof back to the group you’re signing with

Optional: they repeat the process to add their signature

What would be very cool is if you could leave an encrypted signature on anything anywhere without it having to be part of a group request. Like if I could sign a pdf, save it to my computer, email it to someone and the signature stayed intact and verifiable. Anyone with a question about it could loo...

If I am well-measured, I’d be happy to leave the reply. If I am a jerk, I can delete. My gain, my loss. No platform moderation required.

As a third party reader of the thread, I think I’d rather make my own decisions on who I would want to mute rather than have to depend on the decisions of whoever started the thread. Though I’d like a mode or filter of sorts where I can see that lots of people have muted someone’s post or their entire account.

There'll be a few 'rockstar' accounts who make serious money; the rest will be left scraping for a few bucks like Joe here. And the few who do make it big will mostly be corrupted by the money they are making by becoming audience pleasers.

I see what you’re saying about the state of something regardless of the observer. I wasn’t really thinking about the differences between classical and quantum physics. I was leaning more toward th...

Gotcha. Yeah, nobody is locked into one particular future! If we set time aside - we could think about all those possible future versions of you coexisting in our minds, each with some probability of being the path you follow. Which will you choose? How will you choose? How much voice do you personally have in the selection?


I know you’re talking about something else here, but I’ll just add that the quantum effect is the same regardless of who the observer is, and my astronomy example is not a quantum effect, just an ambiguity in the little data my example indicates we have about that star and its planets. The result is that multiple different models, each with their own sets of assumptions, come to different conclusions about the planets around the star. I was just saying that the fact that several people form multiple different models of who you are, their differences are due to their limited data rather than you actually being multiple.
