Finished leading the panel that I’ll be installing in my clients front door this month

Extremely happy with how this has turned out.

My biggest piece yet, and easily the cleanest cuts and leading

Grateful

Is protonmail down?

The pizza guy can now imagine just how many houses he would be able to buy if he just hodled!

Why are chickens yellow? Is it from the yolk?

Why are planets rotating?

Why are Austrians speaking german?

And why are Czechs speaking completely different language when we live so close to each other?

...raising 6yo is taking brutal academic turn, because I'm not ok with not knowing either.

Big Mac went from $0.50 to $8 and lost 40% of its size from 1980-2024.

Bitcoin fixes this.

Hi level block diagram of #nostr #safebox

The #acorn component is the hidden guts that has all of the magic. The web app and cli are just clients. All interactions, aside from the initial QR codes for credential offers and verifications are mediated through nostr relays via NIP-17-like giftwrapped messages. Impossible for eavesdroppers to get in between the credential offers, presentation and verification interactions.

Broken Money has now sold over 100,000 copies.

The readership demographic is really broad as far as I can tell. Many sales are individuals, in many countries.

But for example there is a big tradfi institutional money manager that has given out dozens of copies to his money manager friends, and there is a big CEO that gives out dozens of copies to his CEO friends and members of Congress and stuff.

Throughout this year more translations will come out. I think my foreign rights agent has like 7 languages out so far, and another 13+ are in the pipeline.

Great book 📕 ??

Detailed architecture diagram for prospective #nostr #safebox users.

I'm more than a little skeptical about the quality of software that uses the lightning network.

- I've already hit a bug in LND and added into to the existing ticket about it

- Offered suggestion on lnbits for a confusing error message

- Tried sending using Bluewallet -> LNDHub, failed

- Tied adding a specific amount in the invoice, failed with a different error message "API error: undefined (undefined code)"

- Tried doing the same with Zeus, claimed it was successful despite no money being transferred

- Found LND mysteriously shut down again (no reason cited in the logs)

- Tried sending money from LNBits, no error, no money transferred

- Seeing messages in the lnbits logs that "This backend does nothing" but doesn't say which backend it thinks it's using. The web UI shows it's using LndRestWallet, not VoidWallet

- Eventually I was able to get LNBits to give me an error saying I have insufficient funds to pay (I have 30K and was trying to pay 1K)

And on top of all this NWC with Amethyst/CoinOS has been broken for weeks (yes, I reconnected and it's still broken).

This is why people use custodial wallets instead of running their own node!

It's almost as bad as having Zeus fail and force close Olympus channels that I paid for because they're "too old". It's not quite that bad, but close.

Follow me for more random ranta about technology not working the way I want it to, or at all.

Amethyst can do something like this, as I understand it.

If you turn on the option to "warn when posts have reports from your follows," amethyst will display a warning in place of a post when a threshold of those you follow have reported the author. You are free to dismiss the warning and view the post anyway.
