there's nothing for me here—i didn't escape so much as drifted away

that reminds me, Zooko tried to recruit me once, in the early days of Zcash
i think around the block size war or some other drama episode
he seemed like an okay guy, but told him that if i was done with bitcoin, i was also done with coins in general

sounds like an incredibly fascinating book, thanks for the recommendation

congrats !!!

thats, only funny if you're a Tor developer 😅

but no thanks im already good enough at pissing off people just by existing

yup

still waiting for the gene editing edition

if you just want the square picture it's pretty easy to make a t-shirt like that, without paying Trump, there's special paper that you can print on and then iron on a shirt
just start with a mars-colored one lol

oof yea both would be really bad
but at least in different ways !

no need for that, would be enough to just not fix CVEs 🙂

i definitely agree with the part that making consensus changes has become more difficult !

i just think the framing as a bitcoin core leadership issue is way too simplistic, and i hate how he waves away all the current work done on the node software because it's not consensus changes, that's also typical 2014 playbook

sorry if i overreacted, if...anything this reminds me that i shouldn't ever get involved in this stuff again and stick to code reviews 🙂

yes, i do-
but the apps that come with them are usually shit, so either you have to put up with that or spend time reverse-engineering the protocol and hacking your own interface, whichever u prefer
