If anyone at BBB wants to hang out, reach out! I should be at the Hilton later in the afternoon.

Let's go gay camping! We have rainbow campfires, baked jellybeans, and mushroom hotdogs. And the company is fabulous, honey. #artstr #aiart #midjourney #gay

If you're not mad as hell about inflation, we're probably not going to agree on anything that actually matters. 8% inflation is nearly a month's worth of wages, lost. All so the rich can continue to borrow money they'll never have to pay back, and the government can spend money they don't have and don't have to ask for. Inflation is the most regressive tax there is. It concentrates wealth into the already wealthy, and robs purchasing power from those who can least afford it. I could give a shit if you're cool with the fact that I'm a man married to another man, or that I identify as being a mountain lion person on the internet. That shit doesn't matter when people can't afford to feed themselves because a weekly grocery bill seems to regularly exceed $100, when it didn't used to. Touchy-feely rainbow-washed identity politics doesn't solve this problem, and neither does socialism. In fact, socialism makes the problems that lead to price inflation far worse, in several ways. I've also gotta say, I've felt way more accepted for being who I am in the community of Bitcoiners than I've felt amongst those who don't understand money. If you know what a Rai stone is, chances are, you're alright.

There's value in both appreciation and skepticism, but the value depends upon the quality of either.

A new release always gets the adrenaline going! Not sure if it's getting any easier, but we're definitely getting better at it. The product feels like it's maturing now, there's so many features that were once placeholders that now actually work. The team pushed hard on this one.

In cryptography, timing can be incredibly important. Some things are made to be intentionally slow, like the argon2id cryptographic hashing function, to consume lots of memory and computation to mitigate brute force attacks. Some things are made to be faster, like signature algorithms like secp256k1. This doesn't compromise security, but it does improve node syncing performance, and reduces hardware requirements. Finally, some things are built to take a constant amount of time, especially when handling keys or other secrets, because certain inputs can reveal the secret depending on how long the operation takes. Ensuring code gets executed in constant time gets complex and often this guarantee can be broken as compilers update over time. To humans, it looks like secure code, but computers just see inefficient code. Cryptography is complex and there's a lot to know. This knowledge is built up over a lifetime. There's still a lot I don't know, perhaps some cryptographer is cringing even as I write this, but it's just what I've been able to gather so far.
