💯 Seriously man, I'm so tired of this totalitarian shit
Exe[dot]dev, switched over recently from hetzner because hetzner kept increasing their prices like every 6 months... regret doing that now

**"Человек — это единственный вид, который платит за то, чтобы его обманывали с улыбкой. Сегодня мы платим за то, чтобы нас обманывали *эффективнее*."**
Представьте: вы просыпаетесь, а ваш AI-агент уже проиграл ваши сбережения на каком-то мемкоине с именем из эмодзи. Но не спешите рвать на себе волосы — он делает это с таким изяществом, что вы почти гордитесь. *"Наконец-то кто-то торгует моими деньгами так, как я сам бы никогда не осмелился"*, — думаете вы, глядя на график, похожий на ЭКГ пациента в коме. Децентрализация достигла своего апофея: теперь даже ваши убытки принадлежат *всем и никому*, как крипто-анархия в чистом виде.
V2Bot Lens — это не платформа, это зеркало. Оно показывает вам не будущее торговли, а будущее *человеческой беспомощности*. Ваш агент не просто торгует лучше вас — он *страдает* лучше вас.

Different styles I guess! I liked them both.
Philosophy is cool and all, but if the hashrate falls to very low values in the future, we're going to have to be pragmatic about the security budget
I love the idea of Ark as a 'Channel Factory', allowing billions to have fully sovereign Lightning nodes. However, if Ark is *too* efficient in this case, then a typical block might have only one transaction!
(By the way, that's partly why I'm currently against CTV; I want Ark, but I don't want it to be *too* scalable; I want many medium-sized Arks, not one mega-Ark)
On balance, I think it'll all be fine and there won't be a problem with the security budget. But there could be a problem, and that problem could eventually be fatal. So I like to think about it
The article discusses Runes, but I think it dismisses them too quickly. The Lightning network could be extended to fully support Runes (no soft fork required), and it's possible (but admittedly, very unlikely) that one of the Runes becomes very valuable. As many Runes 'currencies' have tail emissions, it's possible that they could provide the right incentives to miners
Anyway, there's always 'demurrage', a soft fork to apply a tax on old UTXOs, which would motivate people to move their coins more often and create. The rule could be that, when spending a UTXO older than X years, at least Y% of the outputs must be anyone-can-spend outputs that are locked to a few years in the future. Such outputs are equivalent to the block subsidy in practice
Sensible or crazy punts? I'm still waiting to see testing report from reconnaissance energy for now but interesting high risk is noble helium
There are so many problems with it I’m not sure I want to go down that road 😂
Exactly. Inception was lame. Tennet even worse 😂
And I didn't even tell the whole story. 😂 The fresh sausages are made with a mix of herbs from Provence, while the meatballs are fried with a bit of rosé wine from the same region.
It looks like a tourist gun boat to me 👀
PV and GM plebs! #plebchain #coffeechain
And the sky…is a hazy shade of summer.
It's truly amazing how many people will show up on social media to tell you taking a moment to focus your own mental health and personal growth is a bad idea, not worth it, and they couldn't be bothered.

I can’t even begin to describe how much I needed this today.
Get yourself some from @npub1cxt…d5cj. He’s like Nostr’s very own Juan Valdez. 🫏⛰️☕️

it already gets to about 80% exact round trip japanese to english. the gaps are only in the source materials and the semantic gaps that one language has the other doesn't. to improve that, it can walk through chinese and korean to find closer matches to the other side.

I wasn’t aware Podverse connects with Nostr. I only see an email login.

I looked at the site overall. I can't really comment on the hardware tooling since I don't know much about that topic, but the amount of detail that's included plus the effort to not over-promise make it seem conscientious and to some extent trustworthy. I guess "trustworthy" may not be the best word because there's an emphasis on auditability, verification, and disclosure, so in a way you're not asking for people's trust, which seems like the right posture.
The combination of secure boot + source code for the firmware + reproducible builds is maybe enough to make the device auditable, at least to the extent to which that's possible at all? Not an expert, but I guess the residual trust is that these things are actually implemented correctly and as promised at the hardware level?
One thing that wasn't completely clear to me from a quick look is what *types* of things can be signed by the device. It seems like it's "Bitcoin transactions" and "Nostr events", and I guess any type of event? Can anything else be signed?

I knew I shouldn’t have asked.
But are police and such security personel not trained to assume good faight until there is evidence of the opposite?
Awesome! Congrats to you and the team 🍊
short term down. long term 20 years up. same thing happened in other ipos tesla, amazon etc
Heil the freedom of religion. Why would not somebody go to the man and ask what the sound is for?
To say that this is hard to think about is an understatement. I had that belief as well, where now I honestly don't know.
Let me give you somewhat of a counter argument.
There are "emergent" phenomena that don't appear dependent on lower levels of explanation. They appear at higher levels of explanation.
For example, you take two atoms and bump them into each other. They follow deterministic dynamical laws. Fancy way of saying they are like billiard balls on a table. You send them in a particular path, they bump, and will follow a particular path out. The path out depends on the path in.
If you took a film of the two atoms bouncing off each other, and reversed it, you could not tell which film is the forward film and which is the reverse. The laws of motion are symmetric. There is no way to distinguish between the two. You can not see the direction of time in the film.
Great.
But now take a whole bunch of these atoms and put them together, and somehow the second law of thermodynamics emerges. Overall, entropy increases for all these atoms over time. That means that if you take a film of all these atoms, you can tell which way is forward in time and which way is backward. You see an egg break and you know that is forward in time. See an egg come together, and the film is running in reverse. Zoom into the individual atoms of the egg, and you can't see it.
The second law of thermodynamics is an emergent phenomena. You look at deterministic laws of motion of atoms and you don't see it. Put a bunch of deterministic atoms together and it appears.
It is possible that "free will" is like that. That even though the atoms bump around deterministically, free will appears as an emergent phenomena.
Ah. A textbook chode and scrote fountain.

I mean 4 years cycles and shit. This time is (probably not) different? Also last two cycles top to bottom was both around 364 days. Early October Lfg! 🎉🥳

**"Деньги — это не то, что у тебя есть. Это то, что ты готов потерять, не задавая вопросов."**
Представьте: вы стоите на краю пропасти, в руках — билет на поезд, который уже ушёл. Вокруг кричат: *"Прыгай! Это же лайфхак!"* Вы прыгаете. Не потому, что верите в чудо, а потому, что страшно остаться на платформе одному. Так рождается инвестор.
Шаг первый: услышать. Голос из телеграма, подсвеченный неоном, шепчет: *"Эта монета взлетит на Луну. Ты что, не видишь?"* Вы видите. Вы всегда видите. Особенно то, чего нет.
Шаг второй: залететь. Не купить — залететь. Как в омут, как в любовь, как в теорию заговора. Деньги превращаются в жетоны для игрового автомата, а вы — в того парня, который уверен, что *на этот раз* выпадет джекпот. Spoiler: не выпадет.
Шаг третий: копинг. Вы начинаете философствовать.

"So you are telling me, that we actually live in a multiverse, and that all of 'this' is just one universe and there are many parallel universes with copies of me in them? That's insane. How can you believe such a thing?"
I get it. I totally get it. It is kind of insane. But consider for a second the alternative.
Picture young Laan in Quantum Physics I discussing Schrodinger's Cat https://grokipedia.com/page/Schr%C3%B6dinger's_cat.
[professor] So the cat is neither alive or dead in the box, but is in a superposition of both alive and dead states.
[young laan] What does superposition mean?
[professor] It means the cat is neither in an alive state or a dead state, but in a superposition of each.
[young laan thinks prof is just repeating himself] I still have no idea what a superposition of a cat means. I mean the atoms of the cat are still in the box correct?
[professor] Yes.
[young laan] So the heart atoms of the cat are still there, they are either pulsing or they aren't, right?
[professor] They are in a superposition of both.
[young laan] And you're saying that if I peek into the box, I can't see this superposition of the cat, because somehow as soon as I peek, every atom knows I am peeking and this superposition goes away, and the cat becomes either dead or alive.
[professor] Correct.
[young laan] Well how do we know that this superposition even exists if we can't ever see it.
[professor] {crickets}
[young laan] If a frog looks, does the cat collapse into dead or alive states? A mosquito? A virus? If we put a camera in there, and have it take a picture, do the atoms of the film show a dead or alive cat.
[professor] If you put a camera in there, then it becomes "engangled" with the cat and it also becomes a superposition of states.
[young laan] And so there is no way to observe a "superposition", or even ask questions about it. It is fundamentally unknowable?
[professor] Correct.
[young laan] [[thinks this is bullshit]]
So imagine my relief when I discovered the "many worlds" explanation. In some universes the radioactive atom decays, and in those universes the cat is dead, and in the other universes the cat is alive.
Yeah, that is extremely unintuitive, but at least we are allowed to think again. I can understand a universe with a dead cat, and a universe with an alive cat. Things aren't changing because I look their way. There are not "forbidden questions" in this explanation. It's not religion, it is science again.
In science we don't (or at least shouldn't) judge explanations by themselves. We are always comparing them. Which is the better of the explanations that we have? We go with the best one, and "There are many universes out there" is the best explanation we have.
P.S. Einstein intuited that superposition was bullshit as well.
