Telegram used to be dominated by users from Eastern Europe and Iran. In the West, it was mostly unheard of (at best) or dismissed as “oh, that Russian messenger app.”
With Hermes Agent, vibe coding, and AI tooling increasingly tapping into Telegram’s powerful bot ecosystem, I wouldn’t be surprised to see a lot more Westerners convert!
AI might accidentally become Telegram’s biggest growth engine in the West.

AI may replace more and more of the things we used to do ourselves, but it won't make having had experience in a certain field irrelevant.
Two people can have access to the exact same AI and still have vastly different capacities.

I’ve had a much better time using Codex than Claude. I don’t know what all the hype around Claude is about. Codex is much faster and more accurate.
I know Codex isn’t open-source either, but I don’t like sharing my data with a Chinese company. If someone has the infrastructure to run it locally, though, maybe it’s a best choice. At the very least, it’s open-source.
My machine can only comfortably support 8B models, which isn’t sufficient for coding purposes or answering any real question. But hopefully more powerful infrastructure becomes more affordable.

ColdCard’s bug doesn’t have to be an inside job to be a colossal failure. It’s already bad enough on its own and I don’t find the claims accusing Odell of being in on it convincing.
The podcast clip that’s been circulating doesn’t incriminate Odell. He’s discussing a self-discovered vulnerability in firmware 4.0.0 (one release before the catastrophic 4.0.1), which only affected users who upgraded to that version. 4.0.1 was a patch of whatever vulnerability that existed in 4.0.0.
He’s talking about a different vulnerability that could have been exploited. Nothing in that clip suggests he knew 4.0.1 would introduce an entirely new bug.
Arguably, NVK didn’t know either. But his decision to move away from GPL-licensed code and adopt a source-available license just because he childishly hated competition is what ultimately set the stage for this catastrophe. It doesn’t make nvk any less responsible.

2026-08-05 12:18:11 CEST

This little guy here, running on a general-purpose computer, had been outperforming ColdCard the entire time while NVK was busy buying domains to take cheap shots at SeedSigner.

These are real shortcomings, but AI can help fix pretty much all of them. 😁
The most annoying one is Wi-Fi not working, but that's been an issue for me with several Linux distros across different computer models, not only on Mac. To fix it, you first need an internet connection over Ethernet. Once that's sorted, you can fix the rest from the comfort of your bed with Claude/Codex.
I did have the Wi-Fi issue on my MacBook Air and it was the first thing I fixed. It was essential. It's also the least trivial one, because you'll need an Ethernet adapter for your Mac. Other solutions do not require you to get/have extra hardware.
I don't have Touch ID and it's possible that one can't be fixed. I might be wrong though. I don't know how well well-known Linux distros handle that or if they use it at all.
I managed to customize several gestures and they're pretty good, but they don't feel as elegant as they did on macOS. They do work though. ;)
You'll lose some functionality and elegance. That's a given. But between a slow, outdated Mac and a functional, customizable Linux machine, I'll take Linux any day.
If you end up taking a different route, let me know. I'm especially curious about how well OCLP might work and if it slows a macbook significantly or not. Keep me posted 😉

Yeah, that's a huge thing. And when you get a general-purpose device, you are protected by some 'security through obsecurity'. Nobody knows whether you want it for a digital table watch or for storing your Bitcoin. This is the obsecurity that hardware wallets don't offer.

2026-08-04 17:59:37 CEST

I remember NVK shitting on Andreas Antonopoulos over the seed-generation method described in Mastering Bitcoin. I remember him saying that if Andreas had spent less time shitcoining and more time updating his book, those wallets that used this algorithm wouldn't have lost coins.
Someone should have told NVK that if he'd spent less time shitting on other wallets and childishly changing his license because he didn't like a competitor using his code, this colossal mess might never have happened.
Shitcoiners are better than toxic people.

It feels good scrolling through Nostr.
On X or Instagram, you can feel the algorithm feeding you whatever is most likely to keep your attention at that moment.
On Nostr, you simply see the people you’ve chosen to follow. If everyone is talking about ColdCard, you’ll naturally see lots of ColdCard posts, but you’ll also see their unrelated thoughts, photos, jokes, and everything else they choose to share.
On other social media, the algorithm tends to show you more of whatever is currently exciting or engaging you. On Nostr, people decide what you see, not an algorithm.

It’s the responsibility of a signing device to generate a secure seed, not yours to generate it manually. And ColdCard fucked up big time in that area.
