Every time I see a new “explosive diarrhea outbreak” headline, I get this radical idea that farmers should probably stop putting human feces on fresh produce. Call me crazy 🤷♂️

🟠 „Bitcoin ist Anarchokapitalismus. Jeder Bitcoiner zerstört den Staat, sogar der Etatist." Klingt stark. Trägt aber nicht. 🤔
Ein Ding hat keine Gesinnung. Ein Anarchokapitalist ist ein Mensch, der handelt, kein Guthaben. Und von allein zerbricht kein Apparat. 🔑
Dem Staat nimmt man erst etwas weg, wenn man Bitcoin benutzt: damit zahlen, damit handeln, ohne vorher zu fragen. Das hat einen Preis. Nur zu halten ist bequem und ändert nichts. ⚡

If you read about some of the stars we know of, many are so bizarre and wild that it’s hard to imagine them. Then you look at our own solar system and realize you barely know anything about it. Diamond rain on Neptune? Huh?
The bizarreness of some of these things seems to indicate at least to me that the universe might be procedural.

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 👀

Why The Protocol You Ignored Is Quietly Eating Web3's Lunch
You think decentralized social is dead? While you were distracted by AI agents and memecoins, the most anti-fragile protocol in crypto just secured funding for encrypted video calls, AI marketplaces, and an app store that bypasses Big Tech entirely. But here’s what the grants announcement doesn’t tell you—and why developers are suddenly rushing back to Nostr.

Why Luxury Travelers Are Now Booking Their £50,000 Villas Two Weeks Out
You believe luxury travel requires months of planning. That the best villas are booked a year in advance. That spontaneity is for budget travelers, not the ultra-wealthy. Well... You are wrong. New data from Oliver's Travels reveals that bookings exceeding £25,000 jumped 33% year-on-year between April and June 2026. And here's the kicker: reservations made within 60 days of departure surged 45%.
But here's what the data doesn't tell you. And it's about to completely redefine how the 1% travel this summer...

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?

🌍 📖 Документ 58: УСТАНОВЛЕНИЕ ЖИЗНИ НА УРАНТИИ | §1
Но по мере наступления этой эры Урантия во всех отношениях развивается в сторону состояния, благоприятного для поддержания первоначальных форм морской жизни. Медленно, но верно физическое развитие на Земле и в прилегающих регионах космоса готовит почву для последующих попыток создания таких форм жизни, которые, как мы решили, будут лучше всего адаптированы к разворачивающейся физической среде — как земной, так и пространственной.
Впоследствии комиссия Носителей Жизни Сатании вернулась в Иерусем, предпочитая дождаться дальнейшего распада континентальной суши, что дало бы еще больше внутренних морей и защищенных бухт, прежде чем фактически начать имплантацию жизни.

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.
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! 🎉🥳
