Ok, WTF Is going on with BIP-444? Is this a prank?
BIP-444 proposes removing entire blocks if there is toxic content immediately, but who decides what is toxic content?
How do people post video on Nostr? I tried both Zap.Stream for uploading a video, and nostr.build. Both puked in ugly ways.
Is there another service I am missing that works?
If you want a wild read to get more background on today’s episode this 17 page essay by the Treasury Secretary is screaming the quiet part out loud. I can’t believe a sitting Treasury Secretary wrote this.

When you imagine living on a farm, you probably picture chickens , milking cows, goats eating things…
But I’m learning the reality is more like dealing with waste, fighting pond Duckweed, and finding weirdos on the property with the drone …
I arrived home to tornadoes of mosquitoes at sunset last night. Multiple groups of these things in these swirling group tornadoes of bugs.
Maybe a bunch of them just hatched? This is gonna be a nightmare 😂
Fresh episode! JPOW just said screw the workers: Hot inflation, higher tariffs, weaker workers. The Fed knows wages won’t rise, so it cuts to save the government’s debt. The squeeze is on, and I break it all down for Bitcoiners.

While on an early morning walk around the farm, I think I discovered otters in our creek. I’m just kind of guessing, but it looked like a small group of three hanging out and getting some breakfast.
Now I wanna know everything about them instead of cameras 🤣
GM from the farm ⛅️
LINUX Unplugged day. Heading to the studio, we’re live in about 3 hours.
Up first: we are talking about this two week long Arch Linux DDoS.
I have contacted MARA Press to determine if they are aware of a potentially disturbing story that appears to be unfolding.
A MARA staffer has been launching DDoS attacks against Knots nodes. Forcing them to re-download the chain, over and over.
I'll have (if any) their response in This Week in Bitcoin.
And so it begins! Starting the very early work to get a septic system installed. Job one is just clearing the area for the inspector.
I’ve never done anything like this so this should be quite the journey .
Fresh TWiB is out, sorry it’s a bit late. I spent some extra time debunking the “Greater Fool” argument against Bitcoin, and then there is just a ton of Macro to break down. It’s a packed episode!
Hey Nostr - What's your take on this:
I have been toying with the idea of creating an npub for This Week in Bitcoin. And then posting show releases and news there, but also maybe making it easier to tag for feedback/show ideas?
Or is it simpler just to keep it to my personal account, IE, only one account to follow?
