35 min easy spin on the bike.
Talked to Claude about a little project Iโm working on. You have to re-feed it data thatโs already in the project knowledge, which I find both annoying and surprising - this seems like table stakes for an LLM.

Like @DownHomeHodler said in their GM, itโs great to be in the gratitude and thankfulness month.
The dog and I slept in a bit, played fetch longer than normal, which means we got to see a some orange this morning.

Thank @Great Ghee for the big jar, and the other goodies! ๐๐
As silly as this may sound, all Iโve done with it so far is spread it on toast, but thatโs such a treat. I had to get some more.

I just found @CsTominaga - S Tominaga - on Twitter. What's everyone's take on his #bitcoin takes?
Here's what Grok thinks are the five biggest legit concerns he brings up:
1. Scalability Woes: BTC's base layer maxes at ~7 TPS in 2025, far from Visa's 65,000+ TPS needed for global cashโblock size caps (1MB base, ~4MB with SegWit) force off-chain layers, killing true P2P micropayments without added risks.
2. LN Not Saving Us: Lightning Network capacity dropped ~20% to 4,200 BTC in 2025, showing adoption lags; it's growing for enterprises but can't hit mass scale without base fixes, turning BTC into "digital gold" only.
3. Security Time Bomb: Halvings cut miner rewards to 3.125 BTC/block; by 2060, subsidies near zero, relying on sky-high fees ($200+/TX) or risk hashrate drops and 51% attacks in a death spiral.
4. Declining Security Budget: BTC's security spend fell 40% over four years (CPI-adjusted), with smaller miners exiting and hashpower centralizing (96-99% blocks by six pools)โprice can't pump forever to cover it.
5. Privacy Nightmare: Transparent ledger enables easy tracing and seizures; without scaling for fungible UTXOs, it's not cash-likeโ2025 privacy regs block progress, and tools like CoinJoin face delistings or
