A pot of our yummy pasta sauce. 👩‍🍳🍝Almost ready to put into containers for freezing. The quarter containers are perfect size for one serving with pasta. Someday I might be able to post the aroma. 🍽️

More cooking for our freezer (well, actually cooking for us) today. 🤭😂 This time it's pasta sauce, our version. Basically, it's the Chilli recipe and we subtract the red kidney beans and the Old El Paso spice mix. The rest remains the same. 🧡✨ When we have pasta we use this cashew recipe that we bring to preferred texture, instead of Parmesan or Pecorino Romano. 🤩 Tomorrow we'll cook our Thai Red Beef Curry. Then we'll be all set for a while again for 3 meals each week, on nights we don't want to cook.

Listening to @npub1exce...n72a and @Danny Knowles Good, balanced conversation. Thanks guys. 🧡🙏🫂 Description: Samson Mow is the CEO of JAN3 and former CSO at Blockstream. In this episode, we get into the growing rift between Bitcoin Core and Knots, why mistrust in Core development is at an all-time high, and what it means for the future of the network. We discuss the battle over spam and data storage on-chain, whether Bitcoin should ossify or adapt, and how governance really works in Bitcoin. Samson breaks down why the UTXO set could become a systemic risk, how mempool fragmentation is reshaping the network, and why multiple implementations of Bitcoin may be both a blessing and a curse. In this episode: • The origins of the Core vs. Knots debate • Spam, filters, and the slippery slope of arbitrary data on Bitcoin • UTXO bloat, miner incentives, and decentralization risks • How nation-state adoption may trigger the suddenly moment for Bitcoin TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 – Introduction 01:01 – Why The Core vs. Knots Debate Matters 10:01 – A Third Bitcoin Client? 16:05 – What Is Spam 22:45 – Do Filters Work 30:52 – Miner Incentives & Sub-1 Sat/vB Transactions 40:31 – Should You Run Knots? 45:15 – Should Bitcoin Ossify Or Evolve? 50:07 – Taproot, Covenants & Proving Use Cases 55:52 – UTXO Bloat And Decentralization Risk 01:03:03 – Nation-State Adoption Progress 01:08:37 – Paper Bitcoin & The Omega Thesis

Today's cooking effort 🧡✨

My husband and I are cooking today, tomorrow and Tuesday for freezer meals. We're on holidays and it'll help avoid succumbing to take-away meals at the end of a long work day when we may not feel like cooking. We also like to have good meals available ahead of time, just in case of "emergency". 🥹 Had a big delivery of really good grass fed and finished beef plus lots of super fresh local veggies yesterday. Mind you, I wasn't too good with the chopping knife today. 🤣😂🤭🧡

🧡 Thsnks @Anarko 🧡🫂
