In-laws recognize me for the weirdo introvert I am, and are cool with me reading for hours over the holidays. I have decided to go through Chaincode Labs' self-paced learning curriculum when I am not being asked to enjoy aunt Pam's ham or pretend every moment around my toddler niece is a precious miracle.
ANYWAYS, it is always nice to get a refresher on Bitcoin's actual purpose, academic lineage, implementation history, etc...in an undramatic and erudite fashion. This is the kind of shit you read when you become capable of becoming bored of farty influencer philosophizing.
