How can we stop this pattern in politics?
Alice knowledge set:
[A, C, F, N, R, Z]
Bob asks about B.
Alice notices B is closest to A and C so she fills the space talking about A and C instead of acknowledging she doesn’t know about B.
The 18 block reorg feels like fresh news, though
Totally agreed, I like Monero's premise. Unfortunately I can't ignore its shortcomings
What basic concept am I missing?
Sorry, you'll have to block me to get rid of me.
My integrity won't let me watch you push flawed narrative to unsuspecting people and do nothing about it.
Monero's 18-block reorg in September wasn’t just possible, it happened. And it proves that privacy without robust settlement finality is fragile.
That's what I thought... You don't believe Monero is money in real life
Right, I think most people would give a fuck about getting their money, but you do you.
Keep it hidden, so well hidden it won't reach you.
You can go make that case with someone that had one of those 118 transactions rolled back in those 36 min of tx history
This was more of a Marxist question than I was expecting
Is 20 enough?
By this rate maybe 60 soon?
Sure, as long as monero users are informed they need 20+ confirmations for a Monero transaction to settle
Sovereignty flows downward, legitimacy flows upward.
Nobody... Not even a joint Chinese-European army?
Know-how is no longer a moat
Sell me commodities and be more productive than me or you're getting no money from me.
Europe has no other chance than to take control of its commodities and aggressively automate.
nostr:npub1xzuej94pvqzwy0ynemeq6phct96wjpplaz9urd7y2q8ck0xxu0lqartaqn We accept on-chain donations:
Lightning would raise our accounting and auditing costs. There's a cost to each donation that's received. It's not clear that it would get us more money than it would burn or if we could even comply with accounting and auditing requirements with it. We had to spend around $30k on accounting + auditing for 2024 largely due to how much we use cryptocurrencies already.
Would a solution like Swiss bitcoin pay help?
Good list, I'd just substitute NewPipe with Tubular
Are we relying on the fact that the terminal as a client won't become mainstream? Why are some exceptions to the law acceptable but others not? Are all terminals now obliged to verifying age?
So if a child decides to insert my french nostr relay link on Primal, Interpol will come for me?
How about if a smart 16-y old is just signing events and polling relays in his linux terminal without a client? Who goes to prison?
The point is that nostr still works for users in that jurisdiction even if the relays or clientes there are temporarily down. Users in Mississippi can still use clients and relays not hosted in Mississipi.
Does it matter if you are privately messaging someone and that someone can scan the whole world for your current pubkey (whatever it is)?
Geographical privacy.
With the region codes and teleport, a bot can inferr someone's location with 200m accuracy
The grandma went from letters, to landline, to email, to messaging apps. I'm sure she can be taught a couple more steps. Anyways, if not now, evolution will eventually take you (and her, if she is still alive when the network effect picks up) there
Is it possible to attach an auction event to each video so that promoters can bid on ad airtime (quality-controlled/curated by whatever algo blob servers run)? Servers could attract creators by giving higher percentages of their video sat revenue.
