When people talk about success, they often mention opportunities, background, and skills. But for me, the most important factor is mindset. The number of people I've seen achieve great things from scratch—without being geniuses or having an inheritance—just by having the right mindset and clear goals, is incredible.

Gotta admit, watching #BitcoinCore devs argue with #BitcoinKnots fans on Twitter is making this cold recovery way less boring.

I think they’re actually Bitcoin maxis, but from what I saw, many of them run Bitcoin Knots as their node. So it seemed to me like they were just trying to stir up more controversy around something that’s already a sensitive topic—spam on Bitcoin.

I think none of us in #Bitcoin actually want it to be flooded with spam. This is simply a proposal where certain trade-offs were discussed, but it still lacks consensus.

Regarding how comments are being handled in the repository —sorry if this sounds controversial—but I think that if someone doesn’t have the full context and is just looking to stir things up, it’s fair for those comments to be marked as spam.

Just because you mostly see tech stuff on my socials doesn’t mean that’s all I talk about. I’m way more than that — I just use my platforms for work, not really for personal things.

I feel like this week I managed to find a much better balance between my personal life and work.

addicted to these videos

Open source software is freely available for use and open to contributions from anyone—no permission needed. It thrives on community involvement through coding, design, and community support.

Is it "free work"? Not really. Contributing is voluntary, something you do because you use a project and want to see it improve—a win-win situation.

How do full-time open source contributors make money? Funded projects pay active contributors and offer bounties for specific tasks. Companies and foundations that support open source also provide financing. It's different from traditional employment, but I personally love the open source work style.

I advocate for open source because technological advancement depends on it, and contributing to projects you use is incredibly fulfilling. The goal is advancing technology, not just getting paid to code.

For beginners seeking experience, contributing to projects you enjoy will impress interviewers far more than practice apps. You'll also gain valuable insight into real development environments.

In conclusion, participate in open source projects you care about. Making money takes time and proof of work, but you'll help improve tools you actually use. If you're chasing high salaries, get a job—don't expect payment for voluntary contributions.

You can build anything with Nostr; the important thing is that it solves a problem and is so usable that there's no need to say, "this uses Nostr."

I've been finishing my tasks like a champion every day this week

You can have all that and still, the decision of when to deploy isn’t based on whether it’s close to the weekend or not.

It's such a junior thing to say that you shouldn't deploy on Fridays, and I'm not going to argue about it.

Bitcoin at the code level is beautiful—you have everything, no magic, just pure core concepts from computer science and cryptography.

I really hate doing frontend stuff

I think we need to build better solutions that use Nostr. And when I say better, I mean so good that I don’t even need to mention Nostr as a key feature. Nostr is the medium, not the solution itself.
