Would it have been better if Satoshi just went “Fuck that, we use the patented Schnorr signatures instead of ECDSA .. tf they wanna do? Sue us?” Devs would probably have to be even shadowier super coders in the beginning but it would have been another example of Bitcoin’s power. #asknostr #bitcoin

Mr. Taleb as confused as per usual when addressing complex issues. The scientific method should be the go-to way of trying to understand something. However, in a situation of strong politicization of a complex societal issue, such as Covid, climate change, Gaza or Bitcoin, it becomes essential to add Bro-Science to your approach of trying to understand things. Bro-Science is most powerful when you're part of the analyzed system yourself and its 'test cycles' are relatively short. This allows you to collect many personal data points that the confused & archaic 'The Science ™' people dismiss as anecdotes. Incorporating these data points into your analysis becomes important when your gut tells you that the common narrative's math ain't mathing. If you used Bro-Science as an additional tool you were able to: - brutally outperform Taleb by DCAing Bitcoin - recognize that banning children from kicking around a ball outdoors due to Covid is a net negative - recognize we understand climate change much less than it's commonly presented as In contrast, for me, Bro-Science is a relatively weak tool at analyzing the Gaza conflict, as I don't have any personal or friends' experiences of the conflict. In short: Trust your gut. Don't disregard your own experiences & thoughts on a complex matter just because someone with a fancy title tells you they ought to be disregarded. That loser weirdo probably can't even bench 100kg anyways (125 kg hip thrust for queens). #bitcoin #covid #broscience

Am I doing this Bitcoin drama right? #Bitcoin #Asknostr

Bitcoin drama is hilarious in that normal people couldn’t care less. They see Bitcoiners as a homogenous group of nerds working in unison on their magic internet money. In reality, though, Bitcoiners try dunking on one another in the absolutely meanest way possible. Surely, that’s just due to the passion and perceived importance of Bitcoin. I suspect even those tearing each other apart on social media, or those outraged when someone says “we” or “community”, still feel allied with 99% of their 'Bitcoin Drama Enemies'. #bitcoin #opreturn #nostr #bitcoincore #bitcoinknots

I find it reassuring that ASI isn't close, given that the same people claiming "The AI-Antichrist is nigh" are also the ones hyperventilating about how "Tokenizing real-world assets is bigger than the internet". #vibecoding #ai #defi

After listening to @DETERMINISTIC OPTIMISM 🌞 shittalk Microsoft constantly on @Bitcoin.Review I got myself a 1.000$ Intel chip Macbook 1 year ago for testing .. loved it .. don’t want to touch any non Apple garbage laptops anymore. Now, it was time to get a proper one with an M4 Pro 🥰 cost only 0.04 Bitcoin! #Bitcoin #Apple #Nostr

My most controversial Bitcoin opinion: If you can’t hit a somewhat aesthetic Zyzz pose, you shouldn’t be allowed to open Bitcoin Core pull requests. The likelihood of you being a hysterical, neurotic, loser weeb is simply too high. #bitcoin #nostr #bitcoincore

All these hysterical "The AI superintelligence God is nigh" wannabe nerds need to get a grip .. it's embarrassing. AI is a very powerful tool & I'm one-shotting nice CSS 3D animations in Cursor as much as the next guy, but when we got 40 year old men hyperventilating on Youtube about how the "AI Antichrist" is about to roll up, while US energy consumption is flatlining since 20 years, it's time to touch grass, sun your ballz & do some heavy bench-pressing .. will help being less hysterical. #nostr #ai #cursor #goose

Bitcoin and bench press at all-time highs. Body fat at all-time lows. Soaking in that Europoor lifestyle. Feels good, man. #bitcoin #summer #europoor

There are obvious S tier Bitcoin tweets such as "Running bitcoin" by Hal or "My trust in you is broken" by Nicolas. But Krugman's legendary CPI tweet excluding food, energy, shelter and used cars is easily A tier material, right? #bitcoin #asknostr

Copperzilla heat sink upgrade on the Bitaxe Gamma reduced fan noise massively. Stock fan ran at around 7k RPM to keep it at 65 degrees. Now, it’s almost dead silent running at 2k RPM to keep it at 60. #bitaxe #bitcoin

Lightning node runners of nostr, I'd like to do this: - Zeus mobile wallet connected to an Umbrel running LND - 1 open lightning channel - Primal lightning payments via my Umbrel node - Receive @OCEAN mining payouts to the node - Get pop-up notifications on the phone How do I best connect my @ZEUS mobile wallet to the lightning node at home for a relatively easy & stable experience? Clearnet, Tor, NWC, LNC, Tailscale? #bitcoin #lightning #asknostr

Before the OP_RETURN drama I would have estimated a: - 99.9 % chance that I'll get pretty rich from Bitcoin - 99 % chance that we kill the money printer but along the OP_RETURN drama my opinion of Core has sunken significantly and I'd adjust my estimates to: - 99.9 % chance that I'll get pretty rich from Bitcoin - 95 % chance that we kill the money printer Did yall estimates change, too? And what are they? Skip the first one if you're an opsec god. #bitcoin #asknostr
