Description:

Samson Mow is the CEO of JAN3 and former CSO at Blockstream. In this episode, we get into the growing rift between Bitcoin Core and Knots, why mistrust in Core development is at an all-time high, and what it means for the future of the network.

We discuss the battle over spam and data storage on-chain, whether Bitcoin should ossify or adapt, and how governance really works in Bitcoin. Samson breaks down why the UTXO set could become a systemic risk, how mempool fragmentation is reshaping the network, and why multiple implementations of Bitcoin may be both a blessing and a curse.

In this episode:

β€’ The origins of the Core vs. Knots debate

β€’ Spam, filters, and the slippery slope of arbitrary data on Bitcoin

β€’ UTXO bloat, miner incentives, and decentralization risks

β€’ How nation-state adoption may trigger the suddenly moment for Bitcoin

More cooking for our freezer (well, actually cooking for us) today. πŸ€­πŸ˜‚

This time it's pasta sauce, our version. Basically, it's the Chilli recipe and we subtract the red kidney beans and the Old El Paso spice mix. The rest remains the same. 🧑✨

When we have pasta we use this cashew recipe that we bring to preferred texture, instead of Parmesan or Pecorino Romano. 🀩

Tomorrow we'll cook our Thai Red Beef Curry. Then we'll be all set for a while again for 3 meals each week, on nights we don't want to cook.

Thank you for your ⚑️ zap. Yes, Jeff is always worth listening to. 🧑

#146 Of 365 Forward Steps Notes

Wisdom On The Web

Hypnosis is a natural state which everyone moves in and out of throughout each day. Many of our everyday normal activities are actually performed under hypnosis without us being aware of it. You can change the way you think about yourself and even change your physical health and appearance through directed hypnotic methods. Learn more about the specific ways hypnosis can help you overcome your own obstacles to enjoy life to the fullest, at this short article about hypnosis. (Link is below) https://www.forwardstepsblog.com/self-hypnosis/

Life Power Tip

Get more fussy and choosy. Select your television viewing for the week ahead of time and only watch the selected programs. Turn the television off at all other times. Say no to requests from other people if they involve activities that you would rather not do. Know what you like and what you do not like, then live to it.

Action

Make a tasty and nutritious lunch for yourself today.

Challenge

Have your priority goal in mind all day today.

Quote

It is a common experience that a problem difficult at night is resolved in the morning after the committee of sleep has worked on it. -John Steinbeck

Clearing

Get rid of or organize, three things that are untidy or disorganized.

Question

What are you aiming for?

Affirmation

I choose to produce successful results.

Uplifting Extra

Guy understands there’s never been a more critical need for all of us to hear and be healed by truth in a world that is tearing itself apart with anger, grief and violence. Some months back Guy decided to do something completely new to help spread the seeds of wisdom. He has been presenting two live classes each week online and he has been offering them for free. Each class includes a talk by Guy followed by a lively question and answer session with those who have joined the webinar. When you register you will get immediate access to Guy’s complete archive of all replays. If you can’t make it to any live class, you can simply watch the replay when you have time. Guy has decided to make these online classes permanent, just as they are and free to all. (Link is below) https://www.selfimprovementgift.com/forwardsteps/free-classes/

No, still couldn't get that. Must be my Primal account. πŸ₯Ή

Who do you trust implicitly to tell the truth about the climate changes and history/future?

All I see are billions (actually, trillions) of fiat dollars being thrown around between large corporations and governments, with very little real scientific evidence to back any of what they're up to.

I've been hearing this stuff for years on end. All I see is money spinning between a handful of big entities. πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

I agree western society is insanely wasteful and we're creating a ton of junk and wasting a lot of resources. That's the fiat system in all its glory. The whole heating planet debate is just part of the same. They're all excuses to spend and print more fiat and increase wealth of elites.

We have human nature and the incentives of the fiat system to be more concerned about than their lies of warmer temperatures.

Fear is their tool. πŸ§‘πŸ«‚

Not a very scientific source judging by all the other content on their site. πŸ₯ΉπŸ«£
