When I go quiet... it's 'cos I'm building stuff

I was going to pay someone to do all this but then the Canadian Truckers showed me Tallyco.in which @apshamilton wrote about last week.

Looking at how simple TallyCoin was (the Lightning and BTC donation site they were using), I thought I could use it as my front end. That would remove a huge amount of complexity from the job of accepting arbitrary Lightning payments and converting them to Hive or HBD.

I flew into my code and worked on the back end for accepting Lightning payments and turning them instantly into Hive. That's not very different from what I do for streaming Sats to podcasters, but it was a relatively big re-write of some of my code.

I hate Javascript, Vue and all Front End Work

Then I turned to writing the front end. I'm not good at this. @ausbitbank built my current lnd.v4v.app app but I know I need to learn how to do this stuff so I'm working on making this work.

And it kinda does!

I have probably decided NOT to use TallyCoin in the end. I have issues with getting their API to work and this morning they seemed to be down completely.

At the moment I'm developing within my own network so my connection to the Lightning node is easy, that will have to be made to work over the internet but I think I see how to do that with a very lightweight relay server out on the internet pointing to the lightning node. I can also see how this can be distributed and controled by Hive so that if the external API server is ddos'ed or taken down by a Government, Hive can send a command and control signal and all the clients will point to a new one.
