Just draw a big asterisk and we'll see if it works better. No one's paying attention anyway

You can just dig gold out of the ground, and yet global production has been a steady 1 ~ 2% of the total supply for over a hundred years. That doesn't happen by accident. Bitcoin is better than gold
Carbon reduction is the only solution. Geoengineering is a Faustian bargain
This is the way

"In summary, the social future under clandestine rule is one of extreme stratification and mass manipulation – a world where most people struggle, but are conditioned to blame anyone but the true architects of their struggle"
Asked o3 Deep Research to give me some cynical post-AGI predictions and it basically described modern life 🤦🏻♂️. Maybe we're already post AGI?
The entire "deletion" debate goes away if you just call them "retractions"
That's a little more interesting. At least you can assume those aren't automatically available to non-TLA
Assume everyone has a copy of everything, forever, and you won't be disappointed.
Also, everyone that you want to keep your data from already has a copy and there's nothing anyone can do about it. This is just as true on hosted platforms as it is here

"Each of these project ideas targets a different chokepoint in Bitcoin’s path to everyday, in-person use: usability, volatility, incentives, knowledge, core tech, and integration. A single determined developer can indeed move the needle by focusing on one area and delivering a solution that didn’t exist before (or improving an existing one significantly). The common thread is making Bitcoin/Lightning more accessible and convenient for the non-technical, busy shop owner or the average customer.
In terms of prioritization: an easy POS app (#1) and a Lightning-fiat bridge (#2) rank as top priorities, because they immediately remove major barriers (user experience and currency risk) and can be deployed widely with relatively low friction.
Requiring KYC for AI access is straight out of Suleyman's book
"You've gotta start with the customer experience and work backwards to the technology. You can't start with the technology and try to figure out where you're gonna try to sell it. And I've made this mistake probably more than anyone else in this room, and I've got the scar tissue to prove it." - Steve Jobs
What starts as a solid, early recognition of the trend devolves into a laundry list of frightened predictions, culminating in a love letter to global techno paternalism micromanaged by the flawless wisdom of benevolent experts.
Presumably Jack chose this in order to destroy any remaining appetite we might have for solutions other than rough consensus and running code 🌊
If you want it to improve, make sure you're measuring it
Nostr Wallet Auth is a modification of NWC that avoids relying on a bearer token and has better ergonomics
Nostr standardization seems to come after adoption, and it was only ever used by Mutiny and some related projects. But it's a better and more secure handshake.
When I finally build that wildly popular app we'll get it in there
I don't have a strong opinion on Monero because I haven't looked deeply enough. All I know is that "ASIC resistance" isn't a thing, using something that's only used by people who are hiding is a signal of its own, and the world is a complex and brutal place.
"Go, Confront the problem! Fight! Win!
And call me when you get back darling I enjoy our visits"
