“If someone wants to change #Bitcoin in a way that is detrimental to even a minority of the Bitcoin users, they're probably going to be unsuccessful because there's going to be vehement pushback… software doesn't really break. If you had a piece of perfect software, would continue to work forever if it were kept in the same environment. The problem is in computers that the entire environment keeps changing around the software that has been written. this is sort of the maintenance work where I think it would just be a death sentence to stop making changes to the software, because we don't live on an island, don't live isolated and can keep the whole world staying the same forever.” - nostr:npub1j5mp526z5fkz9wkrk6mt5nzu43xndyrwkr8mnqngdqwytgcpc5vqcnsd5c on nostr:npub10qrssqjsydd38j8mv7h27dq0ynpns3djgu88mhr7cr2qcqrgyezspkxqj8

This is great!
Far too often we get bitcoin development perspectives from people who are not bitcoin developers. If bitcoin is to continue, which it will, it must constantly evolve, change, and grow, which it will
My summer of bitcoin student nostr:npub1d2x9c0e5gwwg6ask88c87y4v425fh4wz3hwhskvcwzpzdn7dzg5sl4eu8n really went above an beyond and even got a PR merged into bitcoin core. He took on a challenging project to make the BDK bitcoind_rpc crate work with prunded full nodes by using the scantxoutset rpc command.

That’s so cool man. Congrats!!
Same! I’m like still a decade behind with all this bitcoin shit I need to learn. How are these many people onto the next book?
Cannot agree with this more
Make it make sense! It’s soooooooooo frustrating! Many people spend all of their waking hours slaving away for money.
Me: “Wouldn’t you want to, you know, learn something about money? The fundamentals are very important.”
Their reply: “No, too busy. Need to make money. For some reason I never have enough of it.”
Me: 😵💫
Hmm, interesting perspective. How have I not come across it before?
Do it!
Haha I waited just a lil longer and bought the literal peak 😅
Just all such utter make believe. Just a whole world pretending
Maddening. Blows my mind to think that most bankers don’t really really know that they’re the biggest thieves
Hahaha, this is so true. It’s amazing that these things are available, for cash. What a steal
ChatGPT is still a highly under rated tool for learning. With plugins, visualize any topic damn near instantly at whatever level of knowledge you like.
Of course it will get things wrong, just like the thousands of forums I’ve traveled over the years to trouble shoot problems, but this does it instantly and for my specific request.
Asked it to visual the bitcoin network and lightening at a high level: https://chat.openai.com/share/6503c1e4-dad3-43f2-a5ba-ab0cf8e88b6f
