Yah, I played basketball growing up and still play pickup. But, just watch a lot of NBA. The playoffs and the regular season are just sooo different. Never played hockey and don’t watch all that much NHL, though I do love the playoffs.

lakers stepped on their throats to close that out. playoff experience matters in the nba more than any other sport imo.

Anybody seen AIR yet? Going tonight and I'm hype πŸ”₯πŸ€

Has some NOLA vibes to it, love that. Need to get out there soon!

We do have the litd UI for creating LNC sessions with certain perms or totally custom perms. You can also use that UX for creating custodial off-chain accounts. Both of those use cases are technically a UI for generating custom macaroons, but it's restricted to those use cases.

I don't think we've put much thought into building a fully fledged UX for baking any and all custom macaroons, but it sounds like that would be useful and we should put more thought into that. Appreciate the feedback! πŸ§‘βš‘οΈπŸ—

Weekends are for node management and.. baking?! πŸͺ

Macaroons, bearer credentials used in LND, enable users to authenticate/authorize access to resources/services through flexible, fine-grained permissions.

With the latest version of the Lightning Loop client, users have access to MuSig2/TR swaps for Loop In and Loop Out. These swaps improve cost and privacy. Just use the - - experimental flag within loopd to use those cheaper, more private swaps.

crazy foul call, v similar to the lakers one ln but Conley has ice in his veins

Yah! That Lakers game was crazy, should be an incredible playoffs. Especially in the west. So much parity.

anybody watching these NBA play-in games? πŸ‘€πŸ€

With LND 0.16, node operators have more flexibility and choice with regard to how pathfinding works on their node. In the long run, these options should lead to better pathfinding and higher payment success rates.

To learn more about these options and how to configure them, check out this new pathfinding guide! https://docs.lightning.engineering/lightning-network-tools/lnd/pathfinding
