Last Notes we know who wrote that code he's definitely interesting I've seen a lot of clips of him. I don't know his positions on every subject, but I appreciate the way he talks about money printing for sure! Part of the reason that I don't want to jump on the outrage bandwagon about those guys - aside from the fact that I have learned so much from them - is that I can totally relate to their negligence. If it hadn't been for a shipping delay from Coinkite I would have set up ppl close to me on coldcards without having done my due diligence. I researched a lot, and was familiar with all the steps, but when it came down to it I would have been recommending to people - people that trust me -something that I had not fully verified myself. The podcasters got paid for it? Yes, they did. But I have also been in work situations that I did sincerely but without completely thinking through the ramifications and which now make me wince. If there were some kind of blow up about it, there's not much I could say besides sorry. I know all of that. I don't think there's anything here that I assumed except that you might know more of his background. He was in Parliament and was in line for Prime Minister, and that's the level of election I meant. I think you can get Poilievres and Thomas Massies at some level of government but not President or Prime Minister. He was branded as a right-wing extremist, unfortunately. I don't think that it's possible for someone who speaks so clearly about money and power to actually win an election unless he's captured along the way. It's not much of a surprise that the guy who won was literally a central banker ☹️ Yeah, I'm having trouble wrapping my mind around it: once the poor-entropy seeds are out there, there's actually not much they can do besides some kind of desperate white hat hack which would probably be highly illegal, borderline immoral, and maybe not successful anyway. is it possible that Peter is those things and NVK's arrogance and greed allowed him to make incredibly poor decisions? I'm trying to imagine planning this as NVK. He has destroyed not just his professional life and reputation but any friendships in the space, plus he is looking at the possibility vigilante-type revenge for the rest of his life. It's hard to imagine someone actively pursuing this path. 😳 There's a theory in conspiracy circles that the power-players have to tell people what they're doing, an internal rule that there must be hints (buried in movies, etc) or even explicit statements about their intentions. This is insane whatever issue it was, it sounds like they both thought (or NVK wanted him to think) that an upgrade would fix it except that Matt seemed to think a firmware update would fix it based on what NVK told him 😂 are you going to tell us the two words? (but maybe you won't see this...) So let's say it was Peter's mistake/exploit, and NVK found out about it years ago (setting aside for the moment all the obnoxious behavior and toxic arrogance). Actually let's pretend this is you, anon, and you have good motives. What do you do when you discover the bug? You can't announce it; that exposes the vulnerability and everyone loses their funds. You can: 1) encourage everyone to update firmware and make sure that the upgrade requires new key generation. (And then what? hold your breath and cross your fingers? and then wait for the inevitable attacks as AI improves?) or 2) get all the pieces in place - prep communications, reconstruct customer purchases, batten down the hatches while somehow keeping zero leaks - and do a massive white hat attack. After which you try to reconstruct everything to return funds before you shutter the business. what are the other options? Thank you - yes, well said. This is what I keep fighting on here (rather idiotically, I realize). I don't know if bitcoin maximalism factors in here, but otherwise I think this is true. Many of us figured NVK being an asshole was one element of him being really really good at his job. hope you enjoy your trip 😬 (but actually - it's beautiful there, and I hope you have some wonderful moments...) yeah it's what makes it so tempting to imagine that there is a larger game here. If you wanted to undermine the culture and credibility of self-custody, can you think of a more effective way to do it? You showed the receipts without a mention how/why it was a change in stance. It's why "the whole truth" is an issue in courts. This is not a court, so obviously you can say what you want, but it seems deliberately misleading from someone who clearly does know the rest of the truth about that particular clip. That was my only point, and it stands. yeah, I think you're right. The hope was that the easier it was, the more likely people would join in. 😔 They totally fucked up. No question. Regarding my attitude: it doesn't take hero worship to recognize what I've learned from them and actually I think that since I never thought they were heroes, I don't actually feel particularly betrayed. I just think they're human and they fucked up. The dishonesty in your post is that Odell recommended dice rolls for years, watched as people didn't do enough rolls and lost their stack, and then started recommending against it. Was he right to do that? Nope. But did he start off telling people not to create their own entropy or did he discourage it for nefarious reasons? No. Pushing this clip without that context feels really shitty to me. without context this is just dishonest And you've been around for long enough to know the context For many people the issues with banks seem minor or are still abstract, whereas the fear of messing something up in self-custody is very real. I think that once you've gone far enough down the rabbit hole, you'll just use this crisis to get better at self custody, but for a lot of people it will reinforce their belief that it's just too dangerous. ☹️ I assumed that they meant other details - name, address, order - but not email. In any case, since they did have emails: WHY DID THEY WAIT THREE DAYS TO SEND THIS MESSAGE?! Everyone in the space is desperately trying to reach anyone who has a Coldcard, who may have a Coldcard, who may have thought about maybe having a Coldcard ... and all along they had the best way to reach everyone who might be affected?! Yeah - so what made him change his advice regarding dice rolling? what might have happened in the time leading up to this clip that would account for this position after having taught people to roll dice for years? Odell being wrong about this and you being a scumbag for wishing for terrorist attacks are not mutually exclusive Were you able to wipe the old seed? Mine (mk4) wouldn't do it despite multiple attempts. I'm just nervous that the next stage is to use this to fully criminalize mixers, but no disagreement here at all. it's absolutely heartbreaking 💔 that he's had a hard time recently? I'm sure that he deeply wishes that were not true or that it's 95% Gigi? My understanding is that they have a tiny admin budget I would expect this to take some time. My guess is that it's coming. bitcoin is for our friends and for our enemies, and so are mixers and other anonymity-preserving technologies it sucks but there it is Nice! have fun, and happy birthday 🥳 come back and tell us what you learned, please! I was thinking that earlier today, but now I'm not totally sure. Once you really get that money in banks and money on exchanges aren't actually yours, something like this just sends you deeper down the rabbit hole. MapleAI just told me that I was "spiraling" 😂 (I asked: what if the Coinkite firmware release today included some new glitch - deliberate or innocent - and now everyone is updating to it) I'm sure that this will all improve security in the long term, but... ugh yes, that too actually my husband's first thought was that the whole mess was a psyop. How better to gut the most dedicated segment of the bitcoin community. he means the users - the victims - did everything right Yeah it really really sucks Fair enough. I didn't mean it to be a synopsis of your post (or your views) and I should have made that clear. My note is putting into words a tendency that I've noticed in the community: as soon as someone is making a living within this world, he becomes the enemy. But I'm not sure that you've come back with a coherent argument. "Have to" doesn't make much sense here, and "allowed" is a troubling word. Who do you think should be in charge of enforcing what's allowed? So many people will now say "yes, maybe things got a little out of hand' but will not recognize that them obediently showing their papers is what made it all possible. I don't think nation states are the primary movers in all of this mess. E.g. Americans are super upset about Israel "running" our govt, but it seems clear to me that it's the military industrial complex that has almost complete control over the lawmakers of both nations, such that the US is the money printer for the complex and Israel is a satellite that offers the opportunity to test military and surveillance tech (on Gaza, for instance). That complex doesn't have national borders or loyalties, and I assume that much of the governing structure of Saudia Arabia is captured, or at least that the govt is aligned in some way with another supranational complex. "We want freedom tech!" Also "no one should ever make any money from freedom tech!" To invest in things that you believe in, help build them, and then urge others to use those - that seems like a very decent path to me. @nprofile…7y8r started in bitcoin around 2010, 2011? Michael Saylor in 2020 wtf is he talking about If Saylor wants to turn most of us into advocates for BIP110, he should just keep talking. Great list! One thing I try to convey is that there's a lot we don't know. In a lot of their questions about the nature of the world, of history, of human nature, etc they look for an absolute answer or opinion. It's important to me that they see that staying open and curious is often more valuable than having a definitive stance. Yes, "settler" is the wrong word here This is horrifying 💔 Definitely do not regret not doing a wedding 😊 ha! I read the prices before I read the text of the post, and did a double take. And actually 75 GBP also seems low to me for your meats. I hope your customers know how lucky they are! who's excited about it? on here I've only seen dread and anger TIL that there are leech farms 😳 Right?! (and it's not mine - I saw it on a note here on Nostr but I don't remember who posted it) "Because in this country people eat when they're not hungry and drink when they're not thirsty. They buy what they don't need and throw away everything that's useful. Because of Republicans and Democrats. Because of entitlement and rudeness. Snobbery and religion. Anti-vaxxers and lobbyists. Because of frauds and bullshit artists. Because America is in gridlock. Buying junk, eating junk, and selling junk. Because it's dying on its own ass and can't see why." junk, entitlement, consumerism, lobbyists, fraud, political parties ... and antivaxxers (religion doesn't belong in there either but if he meant the church as an institution, it could make sense) I got a few episodes (I think?) into the Mosquito Coast series a few yaers ago, and the main character was pretty out there but they made sure to say that he didn't like the crazy antivaxxers. You can almost see the writers: "well, we have to stay true enough to the story line to put him outside of society and suspicious of authority, but he's the hero, so... yeah, let's stick in a line that he hates antivaxxers." It was hilariously incongruous. Also so ridiculous that I stopped watching. Some black-eyed Susan varieties are perennial! These are so beautiful 😍 I disagreed with Charlie Kirk on a ton of things - though it's interesting to contemplate where he might have been in a few years - but you know what I love? The idea of "happy warrior" I want to be a happy warrior for all the things I believe in that seems to be where we're headed. I'd rather just get that over with not too long ago I would have taken this as good news yeah - it's the sequence of -it's not happening; you must be a conspiracy theorist/anti-semite/hater -ok, it's happening but it's not that much -actually it's in the interest of Americans - if you oppose this, you hate our country; let's put it into law I haven't looked at it in detail but I assume that the main purpose is to give the US military access to all the nasty military tech that we've been funding for decades? Do you just swap out the hat with every administration? ugh - we have a few things like that here but maybe not quite as bad a weed? (That re-seeds unless you burn it?) noooo This is heartbreaking 💔 A fire taking the orchard that we've planted over the last few years is awful to contemplate. With trees that have been there for decades... I can't imagine 😢 Gato malo had an excellent essay on this recently. Here's a very poor summary: In a high trust society, empathy is a beautiful aspect of a working culture. In a low trust society (or a meeting of high trust and low trust), empathy can be suicidal. The context for Musk's statement (is that really what he said?) is a country that has a large percentage of the population that values empathy regardless of the cost. It seems like a lovely instinct but has in practice become very destructive, especially when applied in an abstract way. This is the cleanest statement I've heard so far in favor of BIP110 Bunnies! I couldn't get a great photo but they're super cute and are snuggled together in their mama's fur bed (she rips off a ton of her fur just before giving birth). https://blossom.primal.net/5327346c3371fe5f1efb3e16c7bcb862ef9f854dac4235e561725acd560b247b.jpg my husband and I listened to the first chunk on Sunday and I remember thinking that he sounded really good 😞 it took me an embarrassingly long time to understand the word buzzkill in the intro oh shoot! I'm sorry to hear this 😢 I think he was on this past Sunday, right? interesting I haven't looked too deeply into it, but I'm at the stage of my general education that I no longer dismiss out of hand things that would have sounded crazy to me a few years ago (but my favorite part of this post is how you talk about your wife 🤩) to each his own, but I would be in trouble. There's not much overlap between what I like to eat and what vegans eat. A few berries maybe? a slice of tomato from the garden? https://blossom.primal.net/a2e6f599c9a52eac9307b3d986abfa6ca388ef2be845b5215569e2eee885095f.jpg GM, paranoid crypto anarchists! #nevent1q…lr32 hey 👋🏼 Beautiful place you have!! I thought he did say hoarding. Or maybe I read your note and just had that in mind? If you think of women feeling defensive and protective, it's not really a question of sharing. They see it as independence, as not having their financial life - and possibly the well being of their children -be at the whim of a man. It's him ascribing intention to women that rubs me the wrong way. "Hoarding" and "sharing" are not neutral words. Also there's something he glosses over but that's very real for many women: when it comes down to it, we are the ones who are physically responsible for the kids. There are some absent mothers out there but absent fathers outnumber them to a ridiculous degree. But - I do think the data is really interesting, and I think that many women (people in general, but especially women) are going down a questionable path. Questionable for them and bad for society as a whole. Yes 😍 Best thing I ever did, hands down. I've done a lot of things that I'm proud of (along with lots that I'm not, of course!) but my kids are without question the most important part of my life. embrace the constraint, folks @nprofile…ng7t often talks about how the hardest homestead to design would be on a flat featureless100 acre lot. We often complain about constraints, but they are the starting point for making something really special. #nevent1q…r5c0 Still thinking about this, and I watched the video. His interpretation is so antagonistic. Kind of the flip side of the people who say bs like "men provide for the families because it reinforces their power and the patriarchal structure." The data is interesting - and concerning - but his reading of intentions ("hoarding" vs "sharing") is questionable. yeah 😞 I grew up with my mom telling me to never be financially dependent on a man, and given some of the things she had seen that was solid advice. I think for many women there's an anxiety that they need to be able to take care of themselves, but it's a defensive position, not a creative one. That might extend to being able to manage as a single mother if necessary but somehow it doesn't extend to building a family. I'm not sure about hoarding, but I heard something similar recently that rings true to me: when men get a good job, they start a family when women get a good job they tend to stay single. If you don't have an ideological attachment to the concept of immigration, there's no contradiction between those two statements. It's just if you think "he said immigration bad and now he says immigration good" that you might have trouble with it. beautiful garden beds 🤩 good luck on the land search! 😂 I never thought of that https://blossom.primal.net/80ed2eef0fb48d5d38134f5d2dddd2f8093df1b4d73e191a8b7405aa88db8cc0.png Yes, that's one of the things he covers in the video
