Just had a dad and his two young boys drop in at nostr:npub1theparkprcs70dcs437ke9zzwsr6u60f8flu7rg28m30438aep9sd94dha while in from KY to see what it’s all about. With nostr:npub1j0sh8peshr8rthgn0hlh2mxqwaazne3kc3rqsm0y7ysssg77wd8smfga0n out this week, I did my humble best to deliver the tour. The dad discovered #Bitcoin during lockdowns and became committed to learn all he can and pass it on to his five children “so they have a fighting chance.”

This is the Why of #Bitcoin for me. Everything else is icing.

SUFFER WITH YOUR MISSING ATTACHMENT FOR ALL OF ETERNITY

Timing analysis and cooperation among custodial lightning providers could remove some privacy. Depends on who you are trying to be private from. Short answer is that it's not perfect but does increase privacy.

Reminder we are celebrating the fact that a bunch of men in their early 20s decided they would rather die than pay tax on tea. They would cry if they saw what we've let happen here.

The situation in France is a stark reminder we need mesh networks

Probably early, but not wrong, to call the end of the iPhone era.

Much like it's probably early, but not wrong, to call the end of the fiat era.

# Dice Frame

100 dice rolls in one

# Observation

It is difficult and time consuming to achieve a high confidence that a die is not biased.

By rolling a die and performing a statistical analysis you may be able to quickly tell that a die is very likely biased, for example if your first 10 rolls are a 6 there is only a 1 in 60 million chance that the die is not biased.

(1/6)^10 = 60466176

Instead suppose you roll (3,3,8,3,1,2,3,3,2,7).

Half the 10 rolls being a 3 tells you little, it is likely that you would need to perform many more rolls before having confidence tha the die is biased.

You can't quickly tell that it's not slightly biased.

# Resolution

When generating a entropy for bitcoin purposes (BIP39 seed) it is safe and generally easier to increase the number of events than it is to interrogate the entropy generated per event.

So, we will make many dice throws.

What if you could roll 100 dice in one throw?

# Epoxy

To stop the dice falling out the entire recess is filled with a layer a clear epoxy. Small bubbles are not a problem for legibility.

# Buy

This product is intended as a discussion point / educational material only. For proper backup use a metal plate such as those sold by sx6 (https://sx6.store/product/steel-bitcoin-seed-metal-plate/) which at 140000 sats (including shipping and center punch) are a better product at a lower price. That said, if you do want to buy one you can do so here (https://tips.orange.surf/apps/PgxW5mvCkCkBEaiMPRdM8X3poyd/pos)

Chess is a lot like golf in the sense that I am so bad I can't even accurately quantify my lack of skill

Welp, that was painful hahaha
