you, broke: trying to decide what version of core to run me, woke: anxiously awaiting v09.25 of CLN ⚡️ ⚡️

btc++ planning has officially gotten to the point where i have to make tough decisions about what i have time for on the schedule and i am *not* enjoying having to make decisions It used to be the only way to get a talk slot was if i invited you, now i have an open form and i stg the invitation-only mode was so much easier emotionally 😭 people joke about me running too many events (and i agree!) but holy cow the truth is there’s too much content to fit on even the *existing* stage space that we’re creating if you want to present at a @btcplusplus i suggest you apply sooner rather than later and consider putting in an application for Taipei 🇹🇼 or Brazil 🇧🇷

been getting nothing but really great feedback about the @btcplusplus we did in berlin last weekend; i think my favorite anecdote is about an engineer who loved getting to see more about both the cashu + fedimint projects. it really helped him figure out where he wanted to contribute and gave him good context for both projects 🙌

gm day 7 in #berlin was hackathon judging day at @btcplusplus and our final closing party hosted by La Bitcoineta #bitcoin #btcpp #bitcoinfrontiers #ecash

day 5 in #berlin was a whirlwind of talks and workshops at the first day at @btcplusplus #ecash edition

being a foreigner and wanting to eat in all the places you’re not supposed to in japan really makes me question my life choices ok fine now that I’m considering it eating a cookie in the work phone booth is a weird choice

“why did that go so well?” “oh, right. im a professional”

being on an Asia time zone is incredibly for incentivizing getting things done in the morning — it’s the only time Europe + Americas are awake

during the ming dynasty, the elites of china were owner/builders of the finest pottery production known to mankind they were the owner/managers of a vertically integrated ceramics factory

It’s really impressive how eloquent many of Blockstream’s researchers and engineers are

After almost 4+ years, 487 comments from 19 reviewers... the spec proposal for adding v2 opens (aka dual-funding) to lightning is officially merged as spec in LN!! huge thanks to Bastien Teinturier, Rusty Russell, Dustin Dettmer, Matt Morehouse and countless others for their review and input on the spec. doing spec work is a really long process, that requires so much work and input from lots of different stakeholders. it's probably the hardest type of work a programmer can do, and i'm so so thrilled that we got this over the finish line! what's next? splicing and liquidity ads!
