How many will loose fund due to a forgotten passphrase? Remember, not loosing passphrase is as important as not loosing seed. If you loose it, there is no way to get in.

2026-08-02 18:08:09 UTC

# next topic: points of failure #bitcoin
is your seed in one place only? There is a non zero chance that it will be accidentally lost/destroyed. For the sake of argument, lets suppose the chance that this happens in your lifetime is 1%. You are safe with 99% probability.
Now suppose you have 2 copies. You are fucked ONLY when BOTH get lost. That is 1%^2.
Now you are safe with 99.99% probability and fucked with 0.01% probability. Pretty good!
Issue is that there is also a non zero chance that someone finds a copy and steels funds after. By making 2 copies, we just doubled the chance of someone stealing it. Suppose that there is 1% chance of theft in your lifetime. We are fine only when NEITHER get found. That is 99%^2
That makes 98.01% probability that it is safe and 1.99% probability that it gets stolen. Pretty bad!
Is there a better way? YES!
Suppose you have a *seed* and a *passphrase*. We saw in the example above that having secrets stored in mutliple locations significantly decreases chance of loss. However, chance of theft got worse in the previous example. But now, with passphrase in the equation, a thief would have to find BOTH seed and the passphrase.
Homework: Bob has got 2 identical copies of a seed hidden in different spots. And he has got 2 copies of his passphrase in yet another 2 different spots. That is 4 different secret spots total. In order to retrieve signing keys, he must retrieve one copy of a seed and one copy of a passphrase. What is the chance that he gets fucked by a loss or a theft in his lifetime? (assume same probabilities as in example before)

And then you might think it would be a great idea to have a separate linux machine just for the purpose of signing transaction. So you do a minimal linux instalation, remove connectivity, get libreboot firmware. At that point you are basically tryimg to make a DIY signing device. A DIY hardware wallet, which is inevitably worse than a good hardware wallet, like Trezor. Because they thought of many more ways to harden it than you did.

2026-08-02 14:17:58 UTC

I saw couple posts suggesting that instead of a hardware wallet, you should just use a computer with linux on it. This is a horrible advice.

(Tunick_54). While the government depicts the Defend theAtlanta Forest movement as an “Anti-Government, Anti-Authority ViolentExtremist Group” (“AGAAVE”), it has not put forth evidence that Mr. Tunickwas involved in criminal activity in connection with the Defend the AtlantaForest movement.

To me, it reads like they were going after an activist. Agents at the airport told him they want to see his phone just to check if he is not a pedo, while they knew it is about something else. It is a common tactic for cops to lie to trick you into giving or saying something. Like here, he maybe be tempted to say "omg, I am not a pedo. Take the phone and look for yourself!"

This does not seem like it fits the situation. The phone did not get destroyed. He just deleted data. Is data considered property? If yes, is not the burden of proof on them to show what he destroyed? But how can they prove it, if they do not know what was in there?

I do not know how viable would they be as a productive apple tree. I read that it is common to graft apple trees onto a rootstock of a different apple type, which would then dictate the size and life span of the tree. And normally they propagate apple trees from cutlings, in which case the new tree would be genetically identical to the original one. But when growing them from seeds, it may come out different than expected, they say.
I would like to see them fruit at least once, just to see what comes out of it. The mother fruit is Crimson Snow apple variety, which I like.

I very much agree. Really, if changing human nature is the goal, you would have to do eugenics/disgenics over many centuries, and even then, nature would probably blew right past your attempt.
This is imo a more accurate model:
1) human nature is largely constant
2) humans are extreemely adaptable to large variety of environments
3) humans have a desire for control the material world, thus technology is made
4) technology changes the game, thus leading to a change in social structure, for better or worse
5) human nature changes veeeery slowly - think on the scale 10000 years or more. New human races are made in those timeframes. Maybe faster, if the evolutionary pressure is strong.
6) the changes we see in human behavior are cultural and developmental. The animal is the same.

An elderly person near me died today. We were not super close, but saw each other almost daily. It is interesting how people who knew her reflect on her life now. A nice ritual to meet and and talk about her. People talk very openly, and with sadnes say even things about her which they othervise would not say, because it would be considered gossip. But now, it cannot be gossip, because there is honestly and sadness and it kinda does not matter, because the person is dead.

I keep with me an expired ID card, which I show to accomodation providers. It is real, so I am still identified, but at least no one can use it to take loans in my name if it leaks. I have never been denied because of it.
When possible, I look up phone numbers to a little private accomodation providers on google maps. I then book myself over the phone the old school way, bypassing the nosy middle man. Then I pay cash. Most of them appreciate it and sometimes do not even bother asking for a stupid ID. I get pleasure from knowing that they do not have to pay taxes from my money, if they chose not to.

elephant in the room: many of us do not feel affinity to humans around whom we meet face to face. In essence, we are a foreigner from a different culture.

Maybe they are stuck and we grew too much, or maybe they got bewitched, or maybe we took too many pills. But I do not think this is a pathology. In historical terms, we are the ones who burn old religions and start new religions. We are those who discover new continents. We are those who pack up to leave, never to be seen again in their hometown, and then we become the founding fathers elsewhere. We will be remembered. Rejoice!
