People who follow the rules are almost always punished. To seek permission is to seek denial. Message me: signal.sudocarlos.com

been really into unlocking spirits in super smash bros ultimate. i think i like the short challenges and progression made in world of light and the spirit board.

gotta go. kid wants his switch back now. what a baby ๐Ÿ™„

we're heading back in the direction of thin clients and mainframes. #resist

people are so eager to vibe code something. it feels really cool to turn an idea into a something tangible.

but i hate the idea of further empowering these companies by needing their infrastructure. they will never build for personal use if they continue to see growth with their current models.

fuck these 30B+ models.

merry christmas yall

nostr is awesome. yall dont know what im testing but here's a random gif getting a zap and a like โšก๏ธ๐Ÿซ‚

i dont really get nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm new branding. and their mobile app icon looks like nostr:npub1ex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jq6qvyt9 in a different direction

nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 wen vscode extension or fork with shakespeare integration?

ever realize your wife hits you with terms of service-style conversations? think about it. she goes on and on until youre just nodding along and no longer paying attention to what she's saying. then the next day she's out to a movie with her friends and leaving you home with the kids. what happened? apparently you consented to these terms. good luck!

cash > gift cards

bitcoin > cash

its obvious and people will still fuck up chistmas gifts

dont concede to centralization and control anywhere. ai is centralized af, with the best models only capable of being developed and run on large infrastructure. relying on cloud compute will continue to be problematic

"fallout" = comic version of "silo". both shows are dope

Are there any apps that give you a better Github feed than https://github.com/feed ? Would like to see more customization or maybe "trending" stuff at the top of the list. Maybe it's something worth building until such activities have meaningfully moved to nostr-native solutions.

most of the apps run like shit and enabling an internet connection is what enables this. just get a good, cheap set and dont connect it to wifi. if you want to use apps, connect a roku, apple tv or whatever. or be hardcore and plugin a pc

is it just me? i was definitely seeing it in aafari until i upgraded to ios 26 earlier this week. no change with latest testflight 1.24.5 (build 459).

nostr:npub1n0sturny6w9zn2wwexju3m6asu7zh7jnv2jt2kx6tlmfhs7thq0qnflahe did you know the nostr:npub1n0stur7q092gyverzc2wfc00e8egkrdnnqq3alhv7p072u89m5es5mk6h0 highlight option in safari is missing in ios 26?

wish i would have been more active this weekend to maybe be lucky enough to get an animated pfp from nostr:npub137c5pd8gmhhe0njtsgwjgunc5xjr2vmzvglkgqs5sjeh972gqqxqjak37w

nostr:npub10hpcheepez0fl5uz6yj4taz659l0ag7gn6gnpjquxg84kn6yqeksxkdxkr made me think i was getting free service for a year then rugged me ๐Ÿ˜ญ how many people got that email ๐Ÿ˜‚

beyond what i learned through listening to all of the old episodes, i am glad to have found and shared the sound clip that is now one of nostr:nprofile1qqs8sm8j6cqz2xfj2zvhz52tx0e30ry8c62ywsrup7fetzx3u97tk8gprpmhxue69uhhqun9d45h2mfwwpexjmtpdshxuet5qythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnrw4e8yetwwshxv7tfz0xvzs 's fsvorite buttons on the sounboard ๐Ÿ˜‚

haha, what was on the menu today? i made pancakes and have entirely untouched circles to stuff myself with now.

Many people, myself included, tout the importance of software maintenance in the context of Bitcoin Core. It is easy to throw out "maintenance!" and most people will nod their head in agreement, but I think its helpful to have some examples to understand the depth of this work and risks of not doing it.

There are many categories of maintenance work, today I am just going to zoom in on one: minimizing dependencies.

Recently someone attempted to put in a backdoor into XZ, a library used by softwares in hundreds of millions of computers around the world. Even a couple weeks ago hackers slipped malicious code into dozens of NPM packages that receive millions of downloads each week.

Bitcoin Core and other Bitcoin software are not immune to these kinds of attacks. While Bitcoin Core has a robust culture of code review and testing, Bitcoin Core uses third-party libraries as well. Code from these libraries is run, in addition to Bitcoin Core's code, when you are running your node.

Any bug, vulnerability, or performance issue in these libraries (dependencies) can cause issues for Bitcoin Core. Updates to these dependencies of Bitcoin Core are a potential risk and need to be regularly tracked and reviewed. From a security perspective, these dependencies should also be minimized and eliminated where possible.

Bitcoin Core developers have spent years minimizing the number of dependencies of the project. In some cases replacing them with minimal, in-house alternatives that achieve the same function in order to reduce attack surface.

In this latest Brink blog, we outline the risks of using dependencies as well as several examples of Bitcoin Core removing problematic or unnecessary dependencies of the project.

dope. i love learning about historical development decisions like these. please write more like these.

and as always, thank you!

i once dropped my airpods and they stayed in the case. jk. they always

get launched a couple feet from where the case lands.
