I used to keep an updated map of the ALPR's that I found driving around town... Now people stamp Flock cameras everywhere. No one even thinks about cell phones being tracked, or that OnStar puts one in every car. Privacy is so dead that there isn't even a way to have a legitimate debate about it anymore. nostr:note1x45usyytf6ecuy36t2ya92xye6dhf8rwhtr8mcwxtgpddmghmywqae0ax4

> According to a supplemental expert report conducted by the Mastercard-owned blockchain analysis firm Ciphertrace, Ciphertrace had found "discrepancy rates between Ciphertrace and Chainalysis attribution data upwards of 60%", and an error rate "upwards of 64%" for the behavioral heuristic. Ciphertrace noted that, in the Sterlingov case, "over 527,000 Bitcoin Fog addresses" were clustered by Chainalysis using the behavioral heuristic, and that "Ciphertrace does not utilize Heuristic 2 (behavioral) because it is inaccurate, error-prone, and over inclusive".

Ciphertrace's report concluded that "Chainalysis attribution data should not be used in court for this case nor any other case: it has not been audited, the model has not been validated, nor has the collection trail been identified".

I'm not as funny, but here's an image that doesn't exist on the internet (well, until now):

I had to drop a hint the prompt to get a zero-shot answer: "A colorful riddle for you"

> I see an image that appears to be presenting a visual riddle or puzzle. The image contains three main elements:

1. A large, glittery gold letter "E" on the left side of the image.

2. Two metal padlocks on the right side of the image. One padlock appears to be made of a lighter metal (possibly silver or steel), while the other is darker (possibly gunmetal or black).

Given your prompt about a "colorful riddle," I believe the solution to this visual puzzle is:

"Golden E-locks" or "Goldilocks"

This is a play on words combining the golden "E" and the locks (padlocks) in the image to create a homophone for the fairy tale character Goldilocks from "Goldilocks and the Three Bears."

The puzzle cleverly uses visual elements to represent sounds:

- The golden, glittery "E" represents the "e" sound in "Goldi-"

- The two locks represent "-locks"

When combined, these elements create the pun "Golden E-locks" which sounds like "Goldilocks."

Mutiny is an idea – and an idea can never die.

Claude 3.5, given the image and no prompt:

The image shows a humorous cartoon depicting a scene from the biblical story of Noah's Ark with an unexpected twist.

In the top part of the image, we see two unicorns facing each other. One unicorn says "Hi, I'm Dave," to which the other responds, "Hi Dave, I'm Robert. Oh crap." This dialogue suggests that both unicorns are male, which humorously implies they won't be able to reproduce and continue their species.

The bottom part of the image shows Noah's Ark floating on water, with a bit of land visible. The ark is drawn in a simple, cartoonish style.

The humor in this comic stems from the realization that if the two unicorns chosen for the ark are both male, it would explain the mythical status of unicorns today - they wouldn't have been able to reproduce after the flood.

This cartoon plays with the biblical narrative in a lighthearted way, using modern names and colloquial expressions to create a humorous scenario within the well-known story.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Mutiny is a Lightning and Fedimint wallet, and the answer to those questions are mostly the same as other Lightning / Fedimint wallets. What makes it interesting is that it's a progressive web app: as long as you maintain your seed phrase and aren't currently running it somewhere else, you can open the wallet using any web browser that can load app.mutinywallet.com.

1. Have someone browse to a web page

2. Send them sats

3. ... There is no step 3

That line hit me hard as well

Private equity has instilled corrosive incentives. On the flip side, they have become highly receptive to haggling.

People who think LLMs aren't intelligent because they hallucinate and make things up must have never met a bullshitter...

"They constantly make things up!"

Uh huh

"They don't even consider whether they really know the answer!"

Uh huh

"I can't trust what it's telling me!"

Seriously... this is how you should treat everything that people casually say when you ask them to answer your question off the top of their head.

NWC is in a tough spot. Custodial services usually have their own API, and mobile wallets can't respond in the background while your nostr client is active. It works well for node runners, but there are fewer of those than the first two.

Are uploads signed with nsecs? Maybe a web of trust scheme or reputation based rate limiting would help. npubs without a clean history or low connectivity go to the back of the review queue.

The world makes a lot more sense once you find the right angle.

If people can see censorship it's less effective because it breaks people's default level of trust. If a client filters someone, what else are they doing? Some people will move to a different, more transparent client. That's not possible on a centralized service.
