Just gonna say it out loud one more time: Craig Wright doesn't know what an unsigned integer is.

Still kinda amazed when seeing the nuts in reality just pop up in Amethyst. #Cashu

Gm nostr, as always we begin the day with philoso.... Wait a minute!

Just paid my bar bill with zaps I made on nostr.

Absolutely thrilled to finally put it out: Cashu Nutshell 0.15.0 is released with many changes. Most importantly, this update implements the new Cashu v1 protocol (while remaining backwards compatible with old wallets and mints). This update also paves the way for Ecash in multiple denominations (sats, msats, usd, ...) and for supporting multiple payment methods (Lightning, on-chain, ...). Wit this release, we're also about to get serious: We're preparing for distributing the mint in a cluster to run it in a high-availability and hardcore-throughput setting and allow for thousands of transactions per second.

Waking up to a series of horrendous takes on Ecash. I need Marcus today: “Begin each day by telling yourself: Today I shall be meeting with interference, ingratitude, insolence, disloyalty, ill-will, and selfishness – all of them due to the offenders’ ignorance of what is good or evil. But for my part I have long perceived the nature of good and its nobility, the nature of evil and its meanness, and also the nature of the culprit himself, who is my brother (not in the physical sense, but as a fellow creature similarly endowed with reason and a share of the divine); therefore none of those things can injure me, for nobody can implicate me in what is degrading. Neither can I be angry with my brother or fall foul of him; for he and I were born to work together, like a man’s two hands, feet or eyelids, or the upper and lower rows of his teeth. To obstruct each other is against Nature’s law – and what is irritation or aversion but a form of obstruction.” ― Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

How philosophy can save your life: While trying to aid trapped American soldiers on the ground, he was suddenly falling out of the sky and hurtling towards a small Vietnamese village. His plane was on fire, the control system shot out by North Vietnamese who had used the grounded soldiers as bait, and he didn’t have much choice beyond punching out of the plane. After ejection, I had about 30 seconds to make my last statement in freedom before I landed in the main street of a little village right ahead. And, so help me, I whispered to myself: "Five years down there, at least. I'm leaving the world of technology and entering the world of Epictetus."

Bitcoin 🤝 Stoicism 🤝 Surfing I see it now. It's all about staying humble.

Gm, I work for Bitcoin.

The way Minibits handles zaps is a complete dopamine brain hack. I've heard it from others too. You shitpost a while, see zaps incoming in your nostr client, that's cool. However, some time later, you actually open your Minibits wallet and goddamn these nuts keep stacking and you see your balance slowly increase with each nut. That's the real reward! I open the wallet just to get a dopamine kick sometimes.
