No. I should, but I'm running behind.

We haven't gotten a single seed planted yet this year. 🙁 I need to clear off the driveway so I can move on to other things

Mulch sure does make things look amazing in short order.

I feel a little bad for covering the blue violets, but fortunately we have several beds with them sprinkled about.

Does anyone make podcasts just because they like to? No sponsors. No trying to sell you something. Just "I find this topic interesting and want to share it with others" vibes.

It's hard to meause simce we have odd shaped beds all over the yard, buy we have 128 ft² of raised beds

The sun is trying to kill me

I just got 9 yd³ of mulch that needs moved, and I already had 1 yd³ of compost that also needs moved.

I'm going to sleep well tonight!

Or possibly this afternoon.

Take a moment to think about what this would look like in modern times.

I try to see the positive things in the world. It takes effort in these times.

Maybe this AI developed software will be a huge boost to open source projects. They will continue to be done by people who write software they use, not being done for profit. As a result, their real quality will not change, but their relative quality will improve as commercial software declines.

Their privacy advantage might also become more important to people.

Or maybe not. Time will tell. 🤷‍♂️

Ouch. $31 in shipping, jiat from DFRobot alone.

But it has begun. I'm ordering parts so I can make more 🔥 #meshtastic #solar nodes

I think with the bulk discounts I might be able to still hit the $200/ea mark. It depends on of there's going to be some hidden fees for the import tarrifs. Oh well. #yolo

These 6db outdoor antennas aren't cheap. In fact they are more than the electronics (LoRa radio + MCU)!

Can someone who is an LND expert confirm I understand this correctly?

I'm running a full bitcoin node and LND, as different UNIX users.

The LND service has the keys for my bitcoin wallet.

If my bitcoin node got compromised, the attacker woud NOT be able to immediately be able to drain any funds (because the bitcoin service account doesn't have access to move funds on chain, nor does it have the ability to read the macaroons needed to interact with the LND service).

If the LND service get compromised, all funds are at risk.

And obviously if the server gres rooted, the LND service is compromised.

Did I get that all correct?

LLMs are better than 60-70% of coders. 🤣 LOL.

Spoken from someone who has probably never coded in their life,

let alone even seen someone attempt to have any model code anything more than a simple demo,

let alone be able to maintain any code (which is the VAST majority of the life cycle of software).

These Silicon Valley folks are so good at selling their stories. If only they could also provide proof of work that their tech can do what they claim.
