i'm tempted to take that as humor, but i'm very afraid it actually isn't
As an eth holder, this is my anthem

what the fuck did I just watch
Then again, re-reading, might not have been high-school, but middle school? 13yo, no idea how you call those schools in English.

Oh waouh.
Officially, my first taxable income was at 13, summer job in the fields picking melons. Physical as hell, and in the summer sun all day with no cover.
Went back into that company for the next 4 summers, I did anything to not go in the fields ever again, so I became good at doing stuff at the triage factory. Was as physical as the fields, but at least under the factory roof, not in the sun.
On the side in between summers, at high school, same age, i'd sell soda cans at recess. Started out with 5 bucks, ended up being able to buy my first computer end of year. Worked really well :D
What's your experience with nextcloud?
Last time I logged into one, a few years back, was laggy as hell. Seems to require quite the bandwidth, even for just navigating in the "drive" folders without DL/UL anything.
And cheap.
I think i've had mine constantly full of unread (unheard?) messages for the same seven years.
The weird thread visualization, at least on Desktop (I don't use anything nostr on mobile).
Like when I quote a post it posts that quote in the thread, which is fine, but don't include the original post in it's entirety in the view, just an excerpt.
Short OP's are fine, but when quoting long-forms you need to scroll for hours to get to the next comment in the thread.
Moq is dead, long live Moq.

Wasabi Wallet in the land of Github, we got great neighbors!

That map would be even more interesting if it wasn't starring the projects, but actually contributing to them.
Vods working great nostr:npub1v0lxxxxutpvrelsksy8cdhgfux9l6a42hsj2qzquu2zk7vc9qnkszrqj49 !!
Next up we need a mute npub in chat 😂
That just went live like 5 mins ago!
Stream creator mutes a user, all viewers get that mute-list passed on to them.
Ah gotcha, so like in the nostr client apps, same NIP.
And dependencies, and containers, and firmware's, and and and and update all ze things!
mute, as in mute a user in the stream chat?
And does it affect only you, or the feed for all viewers? (I suspect only you, given how nostr works?)
"France’s National Commission on Informatics and Liberty (CNIL), the country’s data protection watchdog, has started investigating OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s crypto project Worldcoin.
The regulator said the project’s data collection practices seem questionable."
Lol. No shit!
I am no longer part of Strike.
After 4+ years, the time has come to move on and contribute to Bitcoin in a different way.
My thanks goes out to all of you here who came from #Bitcoin Twitter! Support Strike and me have received from you over the years was instrumental in our success!
Twitter also helped me and nostr:npub1dmcd5wqd3yku05svp6xqk5gyywek4cgg0w3dk63tcu0rmjxnanns5xutjm connect and develop our relationship.
He followed the success of nostr:npub155m2k8ml8sqn8w4dhh689vdv0t2twa8dgvkpnzfggxf4wfughjsq2cdcvg, and over the years we began talking on coding, FOSS, teams, life...
Then in June 2019 Jack texted me and asked to help him take ln_zap to the next level:
> Unc, I'm looking to turn Zap into a startup and begin selling BTC over Lightning directly inside the wallet
Having a pre-seed startup for your full time job is always tough.
I considered doing it mainly because I wanted to see how Jack will grow as a person and entrepreneur. Like many in the Bitcoin community, I believed in him... and wanted to help him with my skills and experience.
Zap also already had a team of amazing FOSS contributors that I appreciated and wanted to know better.
Opportunity to work with Otto, Ole, mrfelton, Dylan, Korhal, Raph and Namson is what pushed me over the top and sealed commitment.
What followed was hardcore coding of backend that would provide additional APIs and run features Jack had in mind for Zap wallets on iOS, Android and Desktop.
By September we had the first version out

By the end of 2019 we have completely abstracted away the ability to pay lightning invoices.
This is when decision was made to go with completely new app, providing clean experience, focused on ease of lightning payments and UX.
Strike was born: https://jimmymow.medium.com/announcing-strike-by-zap-4f578c7c8984
6 months later, it was time to go with public... Strike BETA was released to everyone that wanted to download it.
https://jimmymow.medium.com/announcing-strike-public-beta-325877a79f87
Looking back, I couldn't be more proud on all the coding I've done on Strike.
Credit where credit is due - big part of that was mrfelton. Otto, Raph and Korhal as well.
Support these guys provided was critical for my coding commits streak of 2019, 2020 & 2021.
And not just them. I was lucky to be able to bring in more amazing engineers into Strike.
Kataklinger, Frank and Giancarlo who I hired for backend delivered big; so it was asked of me to help do the same across Engineering... and eventually whole company.
Thus in 2021 and 2022 I did more of what VP of Engineering traditionally does. There was still sporadic day to day coding, but I was focused on recruiting needed talent, structuring teams and setting up others for success.
In the end I've helped interview and hire over 80 people.
I'm especially proud of realization that I would repeat every single technical hire we've made.
To all that joined Strike over the years - thank you for the work you've done. It was privilege working together with you.
Finally, my focus in the last year was on ensuring that culture of Bitcoin is strong within Strike... and that Strike gives back to Bitcoin for the immense support it has received over the years.
In the process we started numerous partnerships and executed on several grants.
We were glad to give to organizations

To individual contributors

To projects

And all that are working tirelessly every day to push Bitcoin forward.
We have also supported conferences like TabConf, AfroBitcoinOrg, TheBitcoinConf and meetups like ChiBitDevs.
In the end - I wish Strike all the best. It turned into the app that served as entry point into Bitcoin for many... and I hope it will get to do that for many more, across the globe!
Was a blast working with you, learned more than in any other period of my life!
May we meet again, in this life, or another, under this nym, or another!
I knew I missed something the last two days!

It's scan-able QR codes with integrated images.
John's been working on that for a while, trying to get images to produce QR code blocks while still being images visually and actually be able to scan them.
Additionally he's working on getting image AI's to generate these types of QR images, which is what was done here.
