i dunno, never thought about it. the social meetup wasn't scratching my itch. i gained a lot of technical during that time so maybe i was just outpacing the other folks at those meetups.

i have undertaken the task of writing and implementing the spec, as requested by the team
> the specs will sort themselves out if they’re needed
they are needed and i am the guy to make it happen

2026-01-05 23:02:13 CET

- reply

it's a serious question! i have never written a (successfully merged) spec before.
seems like the key goal is to disambiguate any possible misunderstanding of the important implementation details while leaving the rest of the decisions up to the implementor. does this require two different individuals to implement it? if an llm is implementing it, are two different prompts sufficient?

2026-01-05 22:15:50 CET

is it an antipattern to write a spec and implement it twice yourself to get the spec merged?

2025-11-14 19:02:18 CET

- reply

Yeah definitely some sour grapes in there but scaling up FOSS grants incentivizes grant orgs to find efficiencies. The difference between 'efficiencies' and 'shortcuts' is a matter of perspective.
I don't have any hard evidence and I don't expect to ever find it but if you follow the incentives it's not a stretch to believe this happens.
I've seen folks low key take shots at me for my github profile having 'fake projects' and 'fake commits'. Those are lazy takes confirming a preexisting bias. These folks don't yet grok that green squares are a gameable metric. We should help them understand by gaming them harder in a more widespread manner.
I also think there's a big opportunity to grow ngit and similar projects by introducing similar gameable metrics. I hope someone looks into it seriously.

Edit for clarity: ecash fees for on-chain txs

2025-11-14 15:32:48 CET

- reply

Spillman doesn't suffer from the liveness requirement and therefore the attack surface of lightning. No toxic data to protect.
Also, the LN protocol implementors made a (IMO grave) mistake replicated in many places by most btc protocol devs of ignoring mining. In lightning's case even overloading miners with an additional and uncomplementary role: low value HTLCs are escrowed by miners. This opens a fundamental protocol vulnerability where bitcoin block producers who run a LN node can jam a channel with low value HTLCs, take their node offline, and mine the force close tx themselves, stealing from their channel counterparties.
If we're serious about decentralizing mining as a community we need to think long and hard about a world where anyone can mine a tx permissionlessly. I think lightning in it's current form is not suited to task for mining pool payouts.
Real talk: ecash is the perfect tool for low value fees. I think it has a place in LN and BTC protocols. I intend to pursue on-chain ecash tx fees. Not sure if it's worth it to pursue fixing LN fees. I think it's probably way easier to just use other L2 protocols that are less broken and less entrenched. But we'll see. I'm always open to change my mind in light of new evidence.
In any case, if we are successful in decentralizing mining the LN protocol will have to adapt to the new reality. I don't see any other way forward for bitcoin.
