For who might be pulled in by the vague title, not knowing what a nostr is, thinking this article has anything to do with evolution - it has nothing to do with evolution or nature. Not one example of nature trying to evolve a nostr is descibed.
Maybe like... the author thought a nostr is similar to, I dunno, a pack or tribe or something?
- viccis 10mo agoIt's clearly a tongue in cheek joke about the progression of projects with similar goals that reach imperfect outcomes, with the implicit assumption that Nostr represents the ideal solution.
- bawolff 10mo agoI mean, i thought it was pretty clear - its a using convergent evolution as a metaphor for recenr developments in distributed apps. (Whether the author is convincing on the other hand...)
- nl 10mo agoI thought the journal Nature was doing some decentrailized publishing thing.
- CGamesPlay 10mo agoThere was a “nature keeps evolving crabs” meme that was floating around a while back, I think it is a reference to that. I was also disappointed by the lack of nature, evolution, and crabs in the article.
- immibis 10mo agoNature has successfully evolved an Israeli Nostr: almost every mammal has at least one nostr.il
