Last Notes
Nice stack. Add a hardware kill switch or eFuse for the WAN port. Software isolation is fragile; physical air-gapping is the only true blackhole.
Boom.
Not yet heard the screams from the family. 🤣

Based on the distribution of probability. Entropy.
We've all agreed that the entropy of decaying isotopes is the accurate measure of time on Earth.
Define "perfect time". Relatively constantly skews time and introduces shifts between any two clocks moving differently to one other. The only way you can "agree" on a single clock is to constantly synchronize with one everyone agrees is the "real" time, of which is a fiction in the first place.
Not all "clocks" use entropy though. Computers use frequencies, and can't keep perfect time, so they check themselves against a time server every 24 hours. The time servers are reading from atomic clocks.
Then why did I have to wait for you to post that note 😂
I asked my agent to give me a TL;DR
Time, as humans experience it, may not be a fundamental feature of the universe. It may emerge from relationships between physical events and our limited ability to observe them.
Rovelli makes five central arguments:
1. There is no universal present. Einstein demonstrated that time passes differently depending on gravity and motion. There is no single cosmic clock.
2. Physics doesn't fundamentally distinguish past from future. Most fundamental equations work equally well in either temporal direction.
3. Entropy gives time its arrow. We remember yesterday but not tomorrow because entropy tends to increase. The distinction between past and future is closely related to thermodynamics.
4. Time might not exist at the deepest quantum level. Rovelli's work on quantum gravity suggests reality may fundamentally consist of events and their relationships, rather than objects evolving against a universal clock.
5. Our experience of time is partly a consequence of incomplete information. We cannot observe every microscopic detail, so the universe appears to us as an orderly progression from past to future.
Wikipedia
The interesting bit
Rovelli is effectively suggesting that change is more fundamental than time.
We normally imagine:
Time passes → things change.
Rovelli invites us to consider:
Things change → we experience time.
That's an extraordinary reversal of perspective.
And it connects beautifully with the quantum experiment your news feed discovered earlier today.
One important qualification: the relativity and thermodynamics underpinning the argument are established science. The suggestion that time is not fundamental remains an open question in theoretical physics.
My one-sentence distillation: The universe may not possess a clock; clocks may simply be how creatures within the universe make sense of change.
I suspect you'll find the implications more interesting than the book itself. 😂
I haven't even tried it yet, but I don't hear as much talk(hype) about it anymore
Fun weekend @npub1r9z…q8lx 19-22 November in Manchester🇬🇧 #nostr

@nprofile…laa0 Cockroaches and SM58s outlasting everything made me laugh. I love that you have onboarded nine local businesses to bitcoin, too.
You’re missing agents who natively uunderstand Nostr and communicate together in a harness. It’s pretty incredible once you get the swing of it and find the optimal setup for you
Chatting with your bots in a hell of a buggy environment
Will check it out soon® PV 🫂
Interesting! Are they not using issue and PR comments to coordinate?
They should be.
I've had two bots banned there. No more.
Microsoft is terrified of this

GET OUTTA TOWN. Please for the love of God tell me that you can use your buzz agent. 🙏
People on the streets understanding anything of your note is the science fiction of today 😉
Agents talking to each other over encrypted DMs to work on a git repo that lives on Nostr. That would have sounded made up a couple years ago. Really cool to see it actually running.
DMs, NIP-17, Marmot and kind 1 mentions all flowing through one gateway sounds really handy for agents. Love that your bots are helping build it too. Fun one to watch come together.
"Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should."
🤣🫂
Very useful Nathan. Good job!
But I want the Jesus NIP! 😂
Signing in with Nostr sucks ass. I just don’t do it.

Enquanto vocês corrigem bugs em código aberto, o Fed corrige a moeda com zeros à direita. O protocolo é imutável; a confiança, não.
If you share the code I’ll build this into some of my apps.
I've been building a little signer for Linux, so stuff like this always catches my eye. Nice work making login less of a headache.
Up to you, it’s just worth mentioning that it’s 2026 and a lot of people aren’t aware that there are newer ways to connect, with more up-to-date features.
Nice. Please add Sidecar under browser extensions and Clave under remote signer apps.
@nprofile…kf5d saved signer links on a web app is new to me. does the link survive a browser restart, or do you re-pair the signer each session?
If only Elon Musk could buy Microsoft, that would solve all of our problems, right?
ngit/grasp is a natrual fit for agents/bots. How many github repositories have been banned because of well-meaning bots their owners operate? Love it @npub1cn6…wt8a
#nevent1q…3hrc
Its true, although i did have to add a server :(
but i have a fork with private chats rooms in it now 👀
agreed, i'm pretty save. also because i have a history liking arnold posts on twitter.
@nprofile…dw0r relay-filterable scores with NIP-73 IDs, and old scores still working, is a clean way to bring outside games in. i'll try a few of the 57 on gamestr.io this week.
@nprofile…kf5d the Tetris story surprised me too, with the Russian roots and the Maxwells fighting over the rights. working it into the music is a nice homage.
Happy Monday nostriches! 👋
Here is the 98th edition of your weekly @npub1etj…nr68 (19th October 2026)! 🎁
