Dad. Husband. Math teacher. Runner. Amateur writer. Fisherman. Mediocre guitar player and volleyball player. We need a new cultural enlightenment. I want to be a part of it.

This is bloody awesome.

If you’re not following #[0]​ ‘s work are you even really on #nostr ? nostr:note1t466e0aq6r3t7yxp068gtpzxj62c94ufrvvz5svnwkxndjpfcygqwg56wn

New running kicks. Tried 0 drop shoes and ended up with foot pain. Trying a 5mm drop to see if that’s a happy medium. #runstr

It will be exciting to watch how Fedi and the #fedimint protocol grow this year.

I’ll have to take your word for it because I don’t speak German.

Environmentalists celebrating the shutting down of nuclear power plants shows that they don’t actually care about reducing carbon or the environment generally. Nuclear power provides clean, stable energy.

My goodness. Radical environmentalists are not serious people.

I don’t think I’m ever going to outgrow chicken nuggets. 🤷‍♂️

(Not chicken McNuggets. I mean breaded chicken generally. McNuggets, I’m convinced, are mostly not chicken.)

Yeah I’m with Marie. Burn it. Then move to Michigan. Tough winters, but one species of poisonous snake - and you can go your whole life as an outdoorsman and never see one.

Yeah, I think you're right about that. I suppose different people will make different calculations on the right tradeoff between those things and privacy. In some nations privacy may be more important than the strongest form of custody.

Although, if I understand it correctly, I think sidechains built on Drivechain could get you privacy without losing custody or decentralization. Do you think that tradeoffs are less with something like a Zcash Bitcoin sidechain instead of a fedimint?

I got about a third of the way through this and life got in the way and I just never picked it back up. I enjoyed what I read - I should pick it up again.

The creator of the #nostr protocol, #[5]​ , is a proponent as well. I’ve struggled to find critiques of it that stick because it could be implemented and if you never wanted to use any of the features, you don’t have to. You can use #bitcoin in the same way you do right now.
