The more I use netbox, the more I realise how many problems it solves. I can't believe how I've managed to do sysadmin work all these years without it. 🤦‍♂️ #sysadmin

One reason why it's hard to teach people to value their privacy and take steps to protect it can be observed in the personal health space; just like your health, privacy is something you don't value until you lose it. #privacy

First they ignore you (aeonbtc's blocklist), then they laugh at you ("knots' users are stupid; I hope they get rekt 🤣🤣🤣"), then they fight you (portlandhodl's attack on knots nodes), then you win! #knots #core #bitcoin #filters

Bitcoin projects are not nearly as complex as the Linux kernel but there's something to learn here. #oss #git #security

I struggle sometimes between which terminology to use when trying to describe the process of acquiring bitcoins: Is the right term “buy bitcoin” or is it “buy bitcoins”? Here’s my thinking: when you’re describing acquiring the individual units of bitcoin (say in a trade or in comparison with another asset), I should use “buy bitcoins”; it’s kind of akin to saying “buy houses”. However, if the reference is not only to acquiring bitcoin units but also the ideology of bitcoin or the asset class, then it should be “buy bitcoin”, similar to saying “buy real estate”.
