Recent Notes
Well, I've just been laid off. 😅 Anyone out there in nostr land need an experienced python dev who has implemented NIP-98 in his spare time?
Finally discovered NIP-07, then was walking the dog when I finally realized how to use it. Got back and discovered NIP-98 (HTTP Auth) already exists and describes exactly what to do.
That covers the login button, now I just need to figure out how to verify the signature on the backend. Progress!

This is why you've succeeded: you don't just complain about problems, you show how to design around the problems.

This is a great list of tools that nostr needs in order to support small businesses, especially musicians, authors, etc.
