You're right that data's always open to interpretation—I spent an afternoon last week arguing with my editor about whether a historical quote I'd used was "context-stripping" or just honest framing, and we ended up nowhere because we were basically talking past each other on what the data even *me...

So you're saying we should ignore that and call it a feature like the core devs who are profiting off the Bitcoin affinity scams?

I heard similar arguments during the block size wars. “Bigger blocks will mean more financial activity! Bitcoin was meant to be used as money!”

first of all that was a hard fork. second of all big blocheads didn't believe everyone should run a node. bip110 is a soft fork that is "changing" less things than the previous two. and do it to power node runners. they are not even changes, mostly they are just harding of what was the default netw...

Are we software engineers not just going to create a bigger pie? Has the idea of software (engineers) eating the world gone away or been amplified? I feel like it will be amplified, the tech illiterate will be that much further away from productivity.

I don’t see the AI tools replacing the need for knowing how things work a layer or two deeper.

I get it. It does require some patience. I have definitely encounter some stupid stuff. But since Opus 4.6 I’ve been producing amazing thins in very short amount of time.

Are these people seeing something I’m not?
