Next Saturday, April 5 I'm moderating a fireside chat on nostr at the #MITBitcoinExpo. I'll be joined by @Vitor Pamplona and @jb55 to discuss what nostr means for freedom tech and the unique challenges of building on it. I hope you'll join us! Visit mitbitcoinexpo.org for tickets. Historically, the expo has always been live streamed so I'm hopeful it will be again this year!

Every time I create a PR to an open source project

This is a great summary of the arguments for and against burning coins that do not (eventually) upgrade to a quantum resistant signature scheme. I hadn’t considered the possibility that anyone had a choice in the matter, but the more I think about it, the more I am in favor of burning quantum vulnerable coins. View quoted note →

Jaleel White (aka Steve Urkle) voices ALL three main characters in the 1999 Sonic Underground cartoon. Anyways the theme song for this show was a banger and children don’t get enough metal in their media diet these days. “Triplets born, the throne awaits A seer warns of a deathly fate Give up your children, separate Bide your time, lie in wait!”

Saw this while I was literally on a Delta flight 🫣

A state I don’t live in is trying to come after me for back taxes I don’t owe. What’s better, emailing my old tax returns as plain unencrypted PDFs (per their request, when I pushed back I was told their security team “advises this”), or bringing the papers in myself? For both options I have little confidence they will dispose of the documents properly. Surely there’s a better way?

There’s something dirty about using my current laptop to shop for a new one

@The Marie ⚡️🦂 Happy Nostr anniversary! Unlike the last hell thread, I was able to load this one 😂 Love being on here with you!
