His point is actually a good one even if you don't agree with his characterization of himself. Decentralize the devs. Homogeneity of thought is not good for resiliency.
If a problem is expressed, and the devs in lockstep ignore it, Bitcoin becomes weaker.
What does "decentralize the devs" look like in practice?
I'd certainly hope it's not Luke running Knots as a one man show...
It means more consensus valid reference implementations that are open source.
It mean if a dissenting opinion is raised in the Github repository for an existing project it's not Nack'd and the user getting banned from PRs.
It means the maintainers of a project don't lock and unlock PR comments when bugs are pointed out.
Things like that. (Also the "one man show" narrative is false or at the very least extremely misleading)
The people know the record. Dude torched his reputation and no amount of damage control is gonna help. Kinda sad
Okay, again I don't care about Luke's reputation (or Lopp's for that matter). I care about code. I don't need anyone's reputation to run code.
Sure, but the code is a means to an end. The reputation of people writing or influencing the code obviously matters.
Writing yes, influencing no. You can't influence good code into bad code. You have to write bad code. I don't care if Bill Gates coded bitcoin. If the code is sound his proclivities are irrelevant.
"will another bitcoin jesus..."
answer is no.
but you and your golem likenesses at #core, who when stacked under the clear light of the sun have been revealed to make up the corrupting body of the antichrist relative to #bitcoin, will be.
ready for irrelevance?
🥱
You’ve lost the plot
and you arent even in the story.
Has Nick Szabo also lost the plot you fucking non-entity?
Luke is wrong. You are wrong and everyone attacking each other are Asses.
Bitcoin is stronger than one man. Also, those attempting to change/“upgrade” the network in a controversial manner are worthy of scorn and rightful concern. Bitcoin will survive it either way. Its power is in the people.
you seem nervous.
Jamerson, I got lost walking in the woods rescue patrol squad leader, and incel Rambo is back on Nostr duty; speaking to the semi lobotomized, quasi retarded Core 30 supporters who are mostly limp penis’d, soy saturated men with fatboy breast’eses.
It has more of a Craig Wright vibe tbh. Not in the sense that he would scam people like CSW did, but in the sense that he's so committed to being wrong that there's no longer any way back. He can only double down (as we've seen with the csam bs lately) and turns into a caricature as a result. CSW was also preaching to people he was bitcoin's savior.

That would be one of the better things to happen this cycle. Rid us of this authoritarian stooge once and for all and shake out those who don’t truly understand what Bitcoin is and what it represents.
It’s become pretty apparent that the Knots stuff is mostly a combination of naïveté regarding the actual effectiveness of filters (they don’t work to stop spam, it’s mostly just virtue signaling/protesting how everything played out) and potentially even some coordinated attempt to cause a fork to separate the monetary ideologues from the base protocol. It benefits the state to create a situation where the minority of financially literate people fork themselves away from where Blackrock and retail will be, guaranteeing their irrelevance and dooming them to be the next bitcoin cash.
Holy shit...
