Existentialism<br/><br/>Philosophers such as Søren Kierkegaard argued that genuine faith requires a person to stand alone before society.<br/><br/>When Paul says “not ashamed,” it means:<br/><br/>he accepts being mocked,<br/><br/>opposed,<br/><br/>yet still proclaims what he believes to be the truth.<br/><br/><br/>From an existentialist perspective:<br/><br/>a person lives authentically when they dare to live according to their deepest convictions,<br/><br/>even when the world disagrees.<br/><br/><br/><br/>---<br/><br/>2. Stoic Philosophy<br/><br/>Stoic thinkers like Marcus Aurelius would see inner freedom in this verse.<br/><br/>The idea is:<br/><br/>true value does not lie in social reputation,<br/><br/>but in living according to truth and virtue.<br/><br/><br/>Paul does not allow shame or social pressure to control him.<br/>This reflects a form of “stoic courage” — spiritual and moral bravery.<br/><br/><br/>---<br/><br/>3. Philosophy of Truth<br/><br/>This verse also raises a major philosophical question:<br/><br/>What can truly save humanity?<br/><br/>money?<br/><br/>power?<br/><br/>knowledge?<br/><br/>or a transcendent truth?<br/><br/><br/>Paul argues that:<br/><br/>the Gospel is not merely information,<br/><br/>but “the power of God unto salvation” — a force capable of transforming human nature itself.<br/><br/><br/>Classical philosophy often searches for:<br/><br/>truth,<br/><br/>morality,<br/><br/>and the meaning of life.<br/><br/><br/>Paul declares that the ultimate answer is found in Christ.<br/><br/><br/>---<br/><br/>4. A Universal View of Humanity<br/><br/>&gt; “to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”<br/><br/><br/><br/>This was a profoundly radical idea in the ancient world:<br/><br/>salvation is not limited by race,<br/><br/>culture,<br/><br/>or social status.<br/><br/><br/>In the highly stratified Roman world, this was revolutionary: every person has value before God.<br/><br/>This touches on philosophical ideas about:<br/><br/>human dignity,<br/><br/>the universality of truth,<br/><br/>and spiritual equality.<br/><br/><br/><br/>---<br/><br/>In summary, philosophically, Epistle to the Romans 1:16 speaks about:<br/><br/>the courage to live by truth,<br/><br/>faith as an existential choice,<br/><br/>freedom from social pressure,<br/><br/>and the hope that human beings can be transformed from within. <br/><br/> 2026-05-19T17:49:55+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsvnrht8wgpfyl5cxlcj874ny0a3sa0axeszk5clzqknj0q0mxus5qp0dmhxue69uhhgmm4vd5xwunpwdejumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tmhv43zkmn0wd68ywn5da6kx6r8wfshxuewdehhxarjxyhxxmmd9ah8qatzx9nxsurhxf6hswtxd35xx7redsm8supcxsunjdn3vahxk6mr0y6nj7n30f48vufeve58q7rr0qmh2ured46hxd3ev3ensmszyzhkan3acaxevrkrn64h3a7awm4lm9wle3cnwdrzsk7lknv7yyywyv284r5 #animal #wildlife #photography #nostr #animalstr<br/> <img src="https://images.pexels.com/photos/31079930/pexels-photo-31079930.jpeg"> 2026-05-19T17:36:01+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsxt8uhftnuk25ey8e9v8w78zjq7s50g68zmtzfvxnnapswg8l6qmgp0dmhxue69uhhgmm4vd5xwunpwdejumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tmhv43zkmn0wd68ywn5da6kx6r8wfshxuewdehhxarjxyhxxmmd9ah8qatzx9nxsurhxf6hswtxd35xx7redsm8supcxsunjdn3vahxk6mr0y6nj7n30f48vufeve58q7rr0qmh2ured46hxd3ev3ensmszyzxxmkxct0hxd50hpch6wsswru0pmysduklmu49qw4zptztqtpu4krl30c2 <blockquote class="border-l-05rem border-l-strongpink border-solid"><div class="-ml-4 bg-gradient-to-r from-gray-100 dark:from-zinc-800 to-transparent mr-0 mt-0 mb-4 pl-4 pr-2 py-2">quoting <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Article"><a itemprop="url" href="/nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzprrdmrv9hmnx68msuta8gg8p78sajgx7t0a72js823q439s9s72mqythwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytn9v9ehjerwwvhxxcf0qythwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnnd3hhg6re9emkjm30qqs20tt9arzlcpcwc4v48entd88rmc32tn2fqndaz5qw80pq37e2snct8sa3s" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1">nevent1q…sa3s</a></span> </div> <a href="https://nationalvanguard.org/2026/05/wisdom-of-david-sims-part-3-blacks-and-whites-worlds-apart/">https://nationalvanguard.org/2026/05/wisdom-of-david-sims-part-3-blacks-and-whites-worlds-apart/</a><br/><br/>Wisdom of David Sims, part 3: Blacks and Whites - Worlds Apart<br/>American Dissident Voices broadcast of 16 May, 2026<br/>by David Sims<br/>presented and edited for broadcast by Kevin Alfred Strom<br/><br/> #drwilliamlutherpierce #adv #nationalvanguard #cosmotheism #nature #natural #native #nation #national #nationalism #news #press #media #us #usa #america #worldview #nationalalliance #britain #british #black #white #africa #african #race #species </blockquote><br/> #drwilliamlutherpierce #adv #nationalvanguard #cosmotheism #nature #natural #native #nation #national #nationalism #news #press #media #us #usa #america #worldview #nationalalliance #britain #british #black #white #africa #african #race #species 2026-05-19T17:18:31+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsta3awmx6ujvqzus8wcvp4c2g7dup0djp2mw3tqx5xqfk2j4qr9zsp0dmhxue69uhhgmm4vd5xwunpwdejumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tmhv43zkmn0wd68ywn5da6kx6r8wfshxuewdehhxarjxyhxxmmd9ah8qatzx9nxsurhxf6hswtxd35xx7redsm8supcxsunjdn3vahxk6mr0y6nj7n30f48vufeve58q7rr0qmh2ured46hxd3ev3ensmszyzf4d5qg4v3x4d4s32euwwgq234jsdky336j0u89xvkqjgq68ekus6qk89w In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs0twarfglhnt0znt6el2sljsqlkpartalunxuq3y0myj3fmqhr4vgpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mq6amh0d'>nevent1q…mh0d</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>We have heavy clouds/almost rain… which is great for the garden but also drops us to April temperatures. 🥶<br/><br/>I found a photo to hopefully ease your funk. 🫂<br/><br/> <img src="https://i.nostr.build/DxW9jWypIuSDVnu7.jpg"> 2026-05-19T17:07:26+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsq9jp76ugsah0knrv0zqqf8356crawude8ead49zczyyydfcktm0gp0dmhxue69uhhgmm4vd5xwunpwdejumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tmhv43zkmn0wd68ywn5da6kx6r8wfshxuewdehhxarjxyhxxmmd9ah8qatzx9nxsurhxf6hswtxd35xx7redsm8supcxsunjdn3vahxk6mr0y6nj7n30f48vufeve58q7rr0qmh2ured46hxd3ev3ensmszypnfaw7veaqfaczx0gekvzhg3lghu5meuerwg8tuydhlf93l8smtv0h0syt Thanks for the 33 sats! 934 sats until feeder activation.

I don&#39;t know what they call it now... don&#39;t do windows anymore). ANYWAY... back to OP. I started to notice the behavior of those in the class, and on a hunch I interrupted the teacher and asked if I could ask a question of the class. He agreed. I asked the class to raise their hands if they had been tested in school to see if they were retarded. Yes, I used that word because that was the word used to describe me as a child. More than half of those in the class raised their hands. My thought in context of the article, is that culture and language are indeed woven. What are you trying to say when you use language? How do you participate in culture? How do you pass culture on to your children? If you understand that many people find a term degrading, then what does it harm to use a bit more nuance in your language? For me and the others in the class, of course, the issue was because our class was a spectrum magnet, and we were all misdiagnosed in a previous age. It was cultural... our culture couldn&#39;t deal with us. We did ok, sure, and I&#39;ve always thought there was a bit of the &#34;Boy Named Sue&#34; song that Johnny Cash made famous in how I unfolded. I was an alien and had to fight bullies who targeted me. But, that is my own approach. I think culture should not force that sledgehammer distinction. In other words, fucking grow up, understand you are part of a weave of minds and nature, participate, do better, *care* for others and the web of minds and life and individuals. I am also aware of the BS virtue signaling and purity spirals that the counter is reacting too. In my mind *this is the same problem*. Sledgehammers without nuance or awareness. <a

Reusing a key means breaking the security fundamentals of the cryptographic scheme, allowing attackers to forge signatures and potentially steal funds. Thus, it is crucial to keep track of which keys have already been used (a.k.a. the state) to avoid compromising the funds. This means updating the state after each signature, so that we keep track of which keys have already been used. Holding onto this state introduces a layer of complexity in keys management, making static backups, or ones that aren’t updated after every use, de facto dangerous. Currently, you can find all of your funds from 12 seed words, and can sign for any key under those words without worrying about saving any additional information. A stateful scheme would mean you wouldn’t be able to do this without possibly leaking information and losing funds.</p> <p>Despite their need to remember every signature, stateful schemes produce smaller size signatures, and require minimal computational effort for verification. The smaller size makes them attractive, particularly when compared to <em>stateless signature schemes.</em></p> <p>On the other hand, stateless signature schemes do not need to keep track of which keys have been used, making key management as simple as remembering a static backup, similar to how 12-words work today. The same key-pair can be used multiple times without compromising the safety assumptions behind it. To achieve this, stateless schemes make use of massive, multi-layered trees, which create a pool of possible signatures so large that makes the possibility of using the same key twice statistically irrelevant. As you may have already guessed, this comes at the price of way larger signatures than stateful schemes and a higher computational cost for verification.</p> <h3 id="shrincs-an-hybrid-approach-2"><strong>SHRINCS: An Hybrid Approach</strong></h3> <p>SHRINCS combines stateful and stateless signature schemes, attempting to take advantage of the strengths of each while mitigating their specific limitations. Specifically, SHRINCS leverages the efficiency in size and verification of a stateful scheme, while allowing users to easily recover their keys and safeguard their funds with a stateless counterpart in case the state is lost.</p> <p>To achieve this, SHRINCS is built using <em>both</em> a stateless scheme (SPHINCS+) and a stateful scheme (Unbalanced XMSS).</p> <p>During normal operation, SHRINCS uses the stateful unbalanced XMSS tree, producing a 324 bytes signature, a tiny signature compared to most other PQ signature proposals. The state is updated every time a message is signed and is securely stored, to be sure not to reuse the same key twice.</p> <p>What happens if we need to restore our keys? As we said, it is not possible to recover a key from a stateful scheme with a static backup, since it would result in compromised security and possible loss of funds. If the state of the keys is ever lost, SHRINCS can fallback to the SPHINCS+ stateless signature scheme instead. Signature size will explode, reaching up to 8KB, but the funds aren’t at risk of being lost or stolen.</p> <p><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!j3vM!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F17033c0a-055f-4f7f-8256-0a2a87d9b4fa_417x373.png" alt=""/><a href="https://delvingbitcoin.org/t/shrincs-324-byte-stateful-post-quantum-signatures-with-static-backups/2158?ref=blog.blockstream.com">Source</a></p> <h3 id="unbalanced-xmss-of-wots-2"><strong>Unbalanced XMSS of WOTS</strong></h3> <p>SHRINCS uses a stateful scheme based on an unbalanced XMSS tree of OTSs. This is basically a Merkle tree where each leaves represent an OTS.</p> <p>To sign, the algorithm chooses a new OTS based on the current state, signs the message, and updates the state to signal that the chosen key should never be used again.</p> <p>To verify a signature, we have to demonstrate that the OTS we are using belongs to the tree. Thus, the whole authentication path (a.k.a. the Merkle path) need to be provided together with the signature, which requires storing every hash of each sibling node up to the root.</p> <p>To speed things up, SHRINCS uses an unbalanced tree, which results in a smaller authentication path and, as a consequence, smaller signatures. Moreover, the tree being unbalanced helps simplifying state tracking, since it basically matches the height of the Merkle tree.</p> <p>The following image helps clarifying this concept. For the first signature, <code>WOTS_1</code> will be used. The authentication path will be composed only by <code>WOTS_1</code> sibling hash, while <code>state = 1</code> . After use, the state will be updated to <code>state = 2</code> , signaling the algorithm that the next signature would have to use <code>WOTS_2</code>.</p> <p><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!oJXK!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F09e77c46-4e01-43c2-b83d-f480e23e7ec0_409x616.png" alt=""/><a href="https://delvingbitcoin.org/t/shrincs-324-byte-stateful-post-quantum-signatures-with-static-backups/2158?ref=blog.blockstream.com">Source</a></p> <p>To dive deeper in the chosen scheme, let’s analyze each component:</p> <ul> <li><p><strong>WOTS+C</strong>: WOTS is considered the state of the art and the basis for more complex schemes. It is an hash-based signature function and, as the name suggests, a given key pair cannot be used twice. In particular, SHRINCS leverages an extension of WOTS+, called WOTS+C (which stands for “Compact”), which presents reduced signature size.</p></li> <li><p><strong>eXtended Merkle Signature Scheme (XMSS) Tree</strong>: It is a hash-based signature scheme that combines OTS with a Merkle tree. Each OTS key represents a leaf in the binary tree, which has a predefined height <code>h</code> . The internal nodes of the tree represent the hashes of its children, while the root acts as the global public key. To verify an OTS signature, the authentication path (i.e. the Merkle proof, the sequence of sibling nodes from the chosen leaf up to the root) must be computed.</p></li> <li><p><strong>Unbalanced Tree</strong>: Instead of having all the OTS at the same depth <code>h</code> as in a balanced tree, an unbalanced one allows to minimize the authentication path for the early signatures. In fact, the first OTS will have <code>heigth = 1</code> , the second one <code>heigth = 2</code> , and so on, strongly reducing the Merkle proof.</p></li> </ul> <p>Putting this all together, we obtain the stateful scheme for SHRINCS.</p> <h3 id="sphincs-2"><strong>SPHINCS+</strong></h3> <p>The chosen scheme for stateless signing is SPHINCS+, or, as the author suggests, a variant of it.</p> <p>SPHINCS+ is a complex signature scheme, built using several layers of post-quantum signature utilities, such as WOTSs, Forests Of Random Subsets (FORS), and XMSSs. When combined, SPHINCS+ produces a single quantum safe key-pair which can be used to sign many messages safely. Unlike XMSS, the algorithm doesn’t need to remember anything about prior signatures made with the key-pair for any subsequent signatures. One SPHINCS+ structure produces a single pubkey that can safely sign many messages without revealing the secret key.</p> <p>This can be achieved because the final structure is huge, and the possibility to choose the same key twice is statistically irrelevant. Of course, this results in heavy signatures compared to those produced by stateful schemes, making them less practical for use in a system with limited space (like blocks).</p> <p>If you want to know more about this PQ signing scheme, refer to this <a href="https://insider.btcpp.dev/p/sphincs">amazing article</a> by Nifty.</p> <h3 id="putting-it-all-together-2"><strong>Putting It All Together</strong></h3> <p>To implement SHRINCS, there are four functions that are required: <code>KeyGen</code>, which sets up the initial SHRINCs structure with an Unbalanced XMSS and SPHINCS+ sub-pyramids and returns the top-level public key; <code>Restore</code>, which, given the seed, returns the same public key as <code>KeyGen</code>, and marks the state as <code>LOST</code>; <code>Sign</code>, which returns a valid signature for a message using one of the two sub-schemes (Unbalanced XMSS or SPHINCS+). If the state has been marked as <code>LOST</code> via a call to <code>Restore</code>, it uses SPHINCS+, otherwise, it signs using the Unbalanced XMSS tree. And finally, <code>Verify</code>, which takes a pubkey, a message, and a signature and returns <code>true</code> if the signature verifies, or <code>false</code> if not.</p> <p>Most signature schemes include a <code>KeyGen</code>, <code>Sign</code>, and <code>Verify</code> methods; <code>Restore</code> is uncommon, as it marks which of the two internal schemes to use.</p> <p>As outlined by Nick in the <a href="https://delvingbitcoin.org/t/shrincs-324-byte-stateful-post-quantum-signatures-with-static-backups/2158">Delving post</a>, here’s a more in-depth explanation of how each of the four functions work:</p> <ul> <li><p><code>KeyGen()</code> : The algorithm creates a master seed and derives two secret keys, one for the stateful scheme, <code>sk_1</code>, and one for the stateless, <code>sk_2</code>. From these, the function derives the two public keys, <code>pk_1</code> and <code>pk_2</code>. The SHRINCS public key is the hash of <code>pk_1</code> and <code>pk_2</code> , such that <code>pk = H(pk_1, pk_2)</code> . In the end, the function return the master <code>seed</code> , the master public key <code>pk</code> , and the initial <code>state</code> of the stateful scheme.</p></li> <li><p><code>Restore(seed)</code> : This function is responsible for recovering the keys and for setting the <code>state</code> to <code>LOST</code> to signal that the stateful scheme cannot be used anymore.</p></li> <li><p><code>Sign(seed, state, m)</code> : The signing algorithm first checks whether <code>state</code> is <code>LOST</code> or not:</p> <ul> <li><p><code>if (state ≠ LOST)</code> : The stateful scheme is used, thus the algorithm derives <code>sk_1</code> and <code>pk_2</code> and signs message <code>m</code> using the current state and <code>sk_1</code>. Then it returns the updated state, <code>state’</code> along with the signature concatenated with <code>pk_2</code> .</p></li> <li><p><code>else if (state == LOST)</code> : The stateless scheme is used, thus the algorithm derives <code>sk_2</code> and <code>pk_1</code>, and signs message m using <code>sk_2</code> . Then it returns the signature concatenated with <code>pk_1</code> .</p></li> </ul></li> <li><p><code>Verify(pk, m, sig)</code> : The verification algorithm parses <code>sig</code> to obtain the actual signature and the public key concatenated with it. It then verifies the signature according to the signature scheme used, and checks that the two public keys hash to the correct SHRINCS <code>pk</code> .</p></li> </ul> <h3 id="algorithmic-agility-2"><strong>Algorithmic Agility</strong></h3> <p>A question we could try to give an answer to now is: Is this algorithmic agility?</p> <p><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!mvKU!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F02f740fa-2739-4291-8b27-5a16360bb78d_557x500.png" alt=""/>TL:DR: The short answer is no. Longer answer follows.</p> <p>The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) gives a precise definition of this in <a href="https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7696">RFC7696</a>, which states that “Algorithm agility is achieved when a protocol can easily migrate from one algorithm suite to another more desirable one, over time” due to the fact that “advances in computing power or advances in cryptoanalytic techniques will eventually make any algorithm obsolete”.</p> <p>Thus, we can see algorithmic agility as the ability for a cryptography-based system to be ready for anything (”in omnia paratus!”) that could happen to the primitives in use.</p> <p>On the other hand, the goal of the hybrid approach proposed by SHRINCS is not to provide an alternative cryptographic scheme in case the main one gets broken by advancements in research and technology. Instead, it aims to supply users with a fast and efficient signing algorithm, while at the same time providing a safety net that will prevent them from losing their funds due to its already known limitations.</p> <h3 id="why-does-this-matter-2"><strong>Why Does This Matter?</strong></h3> <p>One of the greatest drawback of PQ signatures scheme is their size. This is not a problem <em>per se</em>, but it becomes so in the context of a decentralized protocol with limited storage capabilities. The smallest PQ signature is 10x larger than the simplest key in use today, allowing for around 3 transactions-per-second (tps), against the 7 tps currently achievable through Schnorr.</p> <p>SHRINCS is a clever solution, that helps demonstrate the problem space of how to compress known hash-based signature schemes to work for the Bitcoin use case in a PQ world while retaining the current static-backup, 12-word experience that users are accustomed to. The SHRINCS innovation is a great approach for maintaining user experience while balancing the realities of limited blockspace.</p> <p>On May 12th, Blockstream Research <a href="https://blog.blockstream.com/op_checkshrincs-a-hash-based-signature-opcode-for-post-quantum-bitcoin/">presented</a> a first proposal for a hash-based signature Opcode for Post-Quantum Bitcoin, called <code>OP_CHECKSHRINCS</code> , leveraging SHRINCS as the chosen signature scheme. Research is continuing to prepare a quantum-secure future for Bitcoin.</p> </blockquote> 2026-05-19T16:16:45+02:00
