What is your programming style: (type a) throwing the baby into the pool's deep end, or (type b) studying error handling and testing for weeks before writing the first line of production code?
With every strong book I read and every insightful podcast I listen to, I have even less to say than before. Firstly, for every topic, someone dug deeper (way deeper), and secondly, it is all rather obvious and will reveal itself to whoever wants to hear it when the time is right. This is a cool episode of the @Bitcoin Infinity Media with @_Checkɱate 🔑⚡🌋☢️🛢️ where you can verify or update your stance wrt mempool spam filtering and what you'd want to do with Satorhi's coins before quantum computers are here.
Here is an idea to facilitate the build-up of circular economies: We would need a new feature in @BTC Map where I can advertise myself as a potential customer, willing to drive up to say 20 miles for groceries if I can pay with lightning. Shop owners would then be able to see the opportunity more clearly.
Ayn Rand: "It is the kind of play that depends upon what the members of the audience are capable of bringing with them into the theater." Satoshi Nakamoto: "If you don’t believe it or don’t get it, I don’t have the time to try to convince you, sorry."
Being silent because so busy with assembling the hardware that takes on the next ten years of freedom (and a vacation in Italy). We should enjoy the quiet situation here before we get overrun by social media refugees from all over the planet.
nostr.band says I zapped 14M sats total. My goal is to make Bitcoin succeed and see myself as custodian rather than owner of some of the sats stacked in 2014ff. did I miss cool and important "sat routes" to success?
What do you think will happen to Bitcoin's price once it is done falling? Exaclty!
I am getting relay time-outs... if you care for what I have to say 🤨, wss://relay.mess.ch is where you find me.
As we work with AI smartly, we will get a massive productivity boost. And we get evaluated and rated by the engine. There will be committees assembled by the leading AI engines and some of you will get a call and perhaps even a medal like "Member of the Global Brain Atrophy Committee" ... jk ..., but realistic it is to be expected.
Working with ChatGPT is like working with an optimistic colleague who takes one step at a time and takes feedback really well. This is me and ChatGPT writing a little Rust program that calculates the final seedword for a set of 11 or 23. The draft was straightforward; if the code failed to compile, I would poke back and get these replies. It is funny how it would say, "You are slicing..." when the code was written by ChatGPT just five minutes ago. However, with a bit of tweaking, I got a working program. - Ah, good catch! That’s due to a change in the crate structure in the newer versions of bip39. The MnemonicType was moved or renamed. - Ah yes — another subtle change in the bip39 crate! - Ah! Got it — thanks for catching that. The issue here is that in the newer bip39 crate versions, Language is an enum, and its word list is not accessed via .wordlist() anymore. - Ah yes — this error means you're slicing a string (&bits[..entropy_bits_required]) at a character index that doesn’t exist. Let's break it down...
Today, I want to thank @ODELL for providing an outstanding technical, moral, and cultural compass in the Bitcoin space. For years. His takes are often posted super early and later turn out to be accurate. Wasn't this the role of priests in the Middle Ages? Is @ODELL Bitcoin's priest-in-chief in the best sense of the word? (I will thank @marty in another post ;-) ) View quoted note →
GM - I completed the new backup project using the proxmox backup server software running on a supermicro hardware (this plus Bitcoin = peace of mind 🧘‍♂️) image
Today, I analyzed the Ethereum blockchain and found that about half of all bits are zero. This just cannot be sound money.
I could use some help. Every time I try to sign into a new app using nos2x-fox, I get 12 pages of signing requests from yakihonne.com. What is happening, and how can I get rid of it?
