If you know Dave Taht of the #bufferbloat problem, he's compiling some ideas to implement.
I would love to see him get proper funding for all the work he's done and plans to do that makes our routers, phones and computers run smooth networks.
I was thinking of temperatures high enough that they reduce the toxins too. Everything has a temperature where it breaks. Maybe it can work, I'm sure it can.
Polish Central Bank (famous for making it difficult to change coins to notes) is showing a coinchanger machine.
I wanted to laught it out, so I tweeted a video of an atmbitbit machine which dematerializes coins into #bitcoin via Lightning
Next tweet is a poll, who wins a monetary boxing match:
- NBP
- #bitcoin
Would be funny if this got some like traction on the bird site.

privacy-preserving means
it's not private and we will betray you and data will leak in ways you can't even imagine
Nice feature:
- Export and then send as encrypted DM
Who here can speculate on the impact of room temperature superconductivity on #bitcoin ?
Ray, great speech! So many insights and great sound bites I have to rewatch the 17 minutes again!
Can you undo a repost on Nostr?

I watched a Bankless pod with Alex Blania and Sam Altman.
In a summary, they want to "Produce humanness, who is a true human."
Why? They believe proving you are a human, like "I created this content", "I endorse this content" will be very important.
Notes below:
1. They want the largest monetary + identity network
2. They feel they really need to have sybil resistance
3. They looked to 3 ways to do it: KYC, Web of Trust, Biometrics
4. They realized KYC and WoT are infeasible
5. Faces and fingerprints are not unique enough
6. Scan Iris
7. The orb's output is a signature of the scanned Iris code
8. They believe the world is changing and Worldcoin *has to happen*
9. And orldcoin is one way to make it "privacy-preserving, open source and decentralized" (sic)
10. World App is non-custodial wallet which proves inclusion of your worldID in a set of users
11. it's all meant to be open source
12. proof of personhood is supposed to be a foundation for identity and verified credentials
13. They have 210 devices, 2 mln irises scanned
14. They believe that "if you understand the engineering, all the concerns are not grounded"
15. They don't collect KYC; if you onramp into shitcoins (it's an ETH token), these onramps would.
My take is that it's a 3-legged solution consisting of:
- KYC-less DB with biometrics to prove personhood
- a shitcoin, affiliate tactics and ETH L2
- a wallet and ID app to log in on the web and physical space. Kinda like npub, but sybil resistant.
๐ฉs:
- "privacy-preserving" usually means deceipt and betrayal
- shitoken on shitcoin
- talk of sybil resistance being so utterly required. For whom? gov't and law enforcement?
Ok, now you can roast me
I did the compress thing earlier. I'll test it next time though :-)
So I did the cold compress on the eyes yesterday and it helped! Zapping you in jiffy!
I think it was nostr:npub1rtlqca8r6auyaw5n5h3l5422dm4sry5dzfee4696fqe8s6qgudks7djtfs who argued that bitcoiners and grandmothers basically give the same advice:
-Save money, go for walks, plant a garden, eat real food, don't trust the banks, focus on your community, get some sun, etc.
I think that comparison is under-marketed. We need some memes about it or something.
๐๐ป All that plus my Grandma used to say:
- tv is lying
- go to church
- don't do onto others what you wouldn't like done to you
- you haven't been really hungry in your life (after I refused to eat something and claimed "I'm hungry")
