Things in Canada are beyond awful, and getting worse by the day. Health Canada (run by a CCP member) is MAID-ing people with depression, vaxx injuries, and bed-sores acquired while waiting in corridors of the ER. Even small towns are overrun with zombified Fentynal addicts courtesy of 'safe supply' which is also supplying to kids. Thought Crime laws are being introduced. Doctors still not allowed to practice for being unvaxxed or advocating Ivermectin.
The country will be a withering husk by the time the next election comes around. We urgently need an a campaign to pump the profile and poll numbers of the Conservative Burnaby South candidate in order to panic Jagmeet into pulling the Confidence & Supply agreement early [for fear of loosing his seat if he waits until the election].
Can they build a bus stop as well please.
If that's the case, then Aqua is unsuitable for the vast majority of customer-at-counter transactions.
Big Pharma fund doctors and researchers.
That didn't go too well.
I initially funded my Aqua wallet with Lightning bitcoin, and the retailer I paid received his bitcoin in Lightning. My guess is that Jan3 augment Aqua by keeping keep a multilayer treasury, with under-the-hood swaps effected when they need to be in order to avail liquidity on a given layer. Could that explain the c. 1min that it takes to buy a cookie?
I've been using Aqua wallet in the wild this week... mainly buying cookies and coffee from the few lightning enabled retailers close to me. My main UX takeaway is that the transaction takes close to a minute to reach [notify] their lighting wallet. This contrasts to using lightning in El Salvador wheretransactions time was generally between 280ms and 5sec, depending on the combination of sending and receiving wallets.
Will definitely pick-up your book - very interested to learn about the under-the-hood augmentation of lightning blended with liquid.
I see that NIP-15 is chugging along gracefully although robust marketplaces on noster will no doubt encounter some design & engineering challenges to solve privacy / scraping / trust etc.
This is coincidentally a topic I spend most days thinking about :))
What kinda stuff was sold on it?
N.B. The 'special insight' is mathematics.
General Engineer here. Can confirm that we're significantly smarter than climate scientists. Climate Science is more of a social science than a pure science, since the body of literature is politicised dog shit. Physicists beat us to the tape by a few dozen ms tbf.
Jamie Diamon trying to recast himself as some kind of hero prophet savior is pretty cringe.
This is not accurate.
He was [also] charged with assault.
Second & third places would be Mangosteen and Kiwiberry.
