Alright, everything's good now. Coracle is a little behind; maybe a CDN issue.

Awesome! So it's more or less just a central place to show off some of your accomplishments. Cool 🤙 Do you hope to gain dev work clientele through it?

No problem! What kind of things will go into your potfolio?

Do you own a business or offer professional services?

I'd like to review your brand 👇 Drop your URL!

I'll record a review and tag you on nostr and any other socials you'd like. Absolutely no strings attached.

What's the order of operations? Arithmetic before comparisons?

If so, 27<=>4/2 evaluates to 1. Otherwise, 27<=>4/2 evaluates to 0.5.

You know … The Federal Reserve and the US Federal Government ought to be found guilty of money forgery and aiding and abetting of forgery. This is only possible in a convention of states, however.

The system is fundamentally flawed such that forgery is a necessary part of it.

Here's an idea: a decentralized mint run by a network of nodes via very-multisig (such as N>50, ~2N/3 of N for on-chain actions and sqrt(N) of N for minting).

Just an idea I've been kicking around...

That is precisely what it is. Unfortunately, as we denominate in it, our inputs and outputs have become increasingly skewed. That is to say, our compensation is outpaced by costs, so it's like the operators forget a load of your luggage on the connection.

It would be aiding and abetting, or criminal negligence, not laundering per se. "Tornado Cash does not pose any barrier for people with criminal assets who want to launder them." (from Coindesk article) The root of the issue is if Tornado Cash ought to have a built-in barrier, but this would also make it vulnerable to tyrannical control, like a remote shutoff for vehicles would make policing "too easy," if you will, and vulnerable to misuse and abuse by the authorities.

It can be argued whether it is ethical to build a technology with no shutoff or censor mechanism, but that's basically the same as Bitcoin itself.

Yeah, which is why I am thinking tablet or phone+lapdock (usb-c portable monitor+keyboard+touchpad, like a laptop without the actual compute)

If I were a knife, gun, vehicle, or alcohol manufacturer, I know my product is used incorrectly, that is to say for unethical, harmful, or illegal purposes. Would I be responsible for its misuse?

Inventing a tool is not selling it, using it, or facilitating its use. The crime, if there is one, is in the use of a thing, not in its invention.

I have a Pi 4. I like it, but I don't think it'll outperform my laptop, so my phone would still be the better option. I can try, though.

Unless there's something I've not yet seen, it looks like Samsung DeX is still much better than the built-in Android desktop mode. It may be workable.
