I'm dreaming of having the time to explore this more deeply. This is sick.
I wanna build my own claude-code-like harness and run it with small models. (like unsloth/Qwen3-Coder-Next-GGUF, which has been kicking ass locally on my pc)

Yup. this is the way it works by default!

Had to get creative.
Drivers post approx location (like ~1km accuracy). Rider gets list of all drivers nearbyish, Rider calculates fares based on route, sends fares and calculated estimated sats per mile, sats per hour of ride using driver location info in offer to drivers. Driver accepts or rejects. Rider location never really shared until driver has already accepted the ride. Desination location can remain hidden also until verified pickup via pin, etc. Everything stays encrypted to rider/driver pubkeys as needed.
There is an still the backup option to broadcast a ride offer publicly like lyft and uber do, but it literally warns against it in app, telling you it reveals location data publicly and is a terrible idea.

I've been repeatedly doing this. "Search for duplicated code, scattered logic, or inefficient methods. Suggest a list of targeted refactors ranked by risk/reward ratio.

Okay so latest release has most of this fixed and normiefied. I didn't completely remove the screens for the backup or wallet options, but I did make them WAYYYY friendlier.

Roadflare is out, now built into Ridestr and Drivestr version 0.2.0!
So many bug fixes this last week before I felt like it was in a safe place to push out. If you use it, let me know how it works out for you!
Download now, from zapstore.dev (android only, for now)

If you can, let me know if it shows up in "Recommended" when you start up the app for the first time. I am not sure if I have good bounding box logic for the southern hemisphere.

It's probably not too difficult, but I can only juggle so many things at a time and main priority is getting "RoadFlare" implemented.

I unfortunately don't have time at the moment to get multi-language support in the Ridestr/Drivestr apps, but I am building and adding routing tiles today. Global Countries added so far:
El Salvador ✅
Costa Rica ✅
Japan (Currently in progress by request)
UK (next up after that)
What Countries would you like to see next?

Yes, if I build and upload the tiles. I suppose I should probably build El Salvador in the next couple of days. And maybe Europe next. haha thanks for the reminder.

2026-01-25 21:40:02 UTC

It'd be awesome to see people use Ridestr / Drivestr around the PlanB conference in El Salvador. I won't be able to make it personally to shill it, but if I hear that it's used from secondhand sources, that'd be legit.

Careful. This is also the place where the deepstate places child materials on innocent peoples computers to frame them. Pretty sure that was one of the leaked techniques in the Vault 7 from WikiLeaks.
Giving public executions would only embolden this practice imo

My favorite lightning wallet for Nostr is definitely @nprofile…uu4j, simply for the "Nostr Wallet Connect" feature. Pro-Tip is to browse with Mutiny and Amethyst in split screen so you can get that one-tap-zap experience, straight from self-custody.
Fun fact: I'm still rolling with the same 200k lightning channel that I opened on the day I first tested the app at the Nashville Lightning summit. This channel will probably serve my zapping addictions til the day I die, unless @nprofile…lktc implements NWC

Uh, If Phoenix open sources their node ACINQ software I would run that LSP in a heartbeat, but they haven't done that. Instead I run 'LSP's like LNbits and LNDhub because they are ACTUALLY readily available software on consumer facing nodes.

They aren't getting a return. Very few normal people are moving sats rn. Which means the cost of the attack is higher than the profit by a long shot. Fees are moving downwards as a result. I think things will be back to normal sooner rather than later. 1 sat per byte will happen this epoch

Rich powerful people will not get a return on attacking bitcoin. Their bitcoin stack will shrink forever until they produce work again at a higher level.
