of course it was their father's fault. how could it possibly be their own fault?
plus, your longest hairs are the oldest, so are more likely to die than younger and shorter hair
I don't think hair ever stops growing. Each hair eventually dies and falls out.
Everyday, you shed hair. As your hair grows longer, more long hairs fall out.
Then it reaches a balance point where the amount of long hair loss counteracts the growth speed of your hair.
I think that is normal length for men's hair. Mine grows to a similar length.
meh. 500k bitcoins can change hands in one day
yea, mesh networks have to be in line of sight to work.
JUST IN - Satellite images show damage to the entryways to Iran's underground nuclear site at Fordo, but no enormous crater.

Yes, penetrating bombs do not leave large craters on the surface.
They penetrate deep underground to destroy underground complexes.
So a node cannot determine which nodes are "economic".
So what is anostr:nprofile1qqsph5e28p48hehk3zeaclzgpm7zrnv5ddp74s2t5ja8sd9vw73ru6gpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzrthwden5te0dehhxtnvdakqxp9svs
talking about?
How does your node determine if a node it is connected to is not an economic node?
I wonder what it is that she doesn't like about bitcoin.
I would bet it is because she didn't buy it when it's price was lower
If y’all want Bitcoin to stay purely a monetary protocol- then start fucking using it as money.
Before you read this take, know that my ideal scenario is monetary protocol only. Also know that I think it’s fucking dumb that nostr:nprofile1qqs8fl79rnpsz5x00xmvkvtd8g2u7ve2k2dr3lkfadyy4v24r4k3s4spremhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet59uq32amnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwv3sk6atn9e5k7tc9vz57s got silenced for expressing a valid concern.
Here we go:
Hodling, sitting and waiting for NGU do NOTHING to increase long term demand for blockspace- which, in case you didn’t know, is needed to secure and stabilize the network once the block reward dwindles. This is what most people in Bitcoin do, unfortunately. This is why we started Conduit and why I’m personally hyper focused on marketplaces: if we can make global Bitcoin circular economies then there’s a chance this thing becomes self-sustaining and the phase change to zero block reward doesn’t result in fucking chaos.
So far, Nostr is the biggest circular economy here, and hate to say it, but since it’s all happening on Lightning we are barely moving the needle for base chain settlement demand. Surprised about empty blocks? I’m not.
Do all of you who disapprove of Core devs approach to increase block space demand actually use the blockchain for anything besides UTXO management when fees are low? Are you building anything that increases block space demand for monetary use?
nostr:nprofile1qqsve2jcud7fnjzmchn4gq52wx9agey9uhfukv69dy0v4wpuw4w53nqpr3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmqpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqx7hhq8 is not stupid. He’s been writing about long term instability for years: https://petertodd.org/2022/surprisingly-tail-emission-is-not-inflationary
Important quote:
“To date no proof-of-work currency has ever operated solely on transaction fees, and academic analysis has found that in this condition block generation is unstable. To paraphrase Andrew Poelstra, it’s a scary phase change that no other coin has gone through.”
He also created Opentimestamps which is severely under used in my opinion (NIP 03 would enable so many great features for a decentralized social protocol).
Neither is nostr:nprofile1qqs0w2xeumnsfq6cuuynpaw2vjcfwacdnzwvmp59flnp3mdfez3czpsprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68y6trdqhxgef0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7wrtw00 stupid. Or anyone else involved in the current drama. They’ve probably thought this through more than most.
You think these people are evil and don’t care about Bitcoin’s long term health? Think again. They are being practical and doing something about the blockspace demand problem.
You don’t agree with how they are going about it? Then build something that increases demand for block space in the way YOU want it.
Or run Knots. That’s a great and valid way to express that view. I support it. But make sure you’re prepared for the consequences if you win this war (stay sat flow positive)- and probably consider using the base chain more, or participating in the Bitcoin circular economy (which means spending Bitcoin).
I find it funny how so many people here celebrated big money and big government when it came in and are now surprised these same parties are taking action to protect their investment. If you don’t do it yourselves, they’ll continue to do so for you.
Bitcoin will only start to be used as money when it is tax free to use it.
It is not getting around that by putting a bunch of cat pictures on the blockchain.
why knot?
have you looked at any blocks in the last 5 years?
Yes, water vapor that is chilled leaves a white cloud. Like how your warm breathe on cold day leaves a white cloud.
Jet engine exhaust is very warm and is full of water vapor. This can leave a white trail behind the jet as it flies through the cold upper atmosphere.
It is a 400 billion dollar a year industry. Communications, GPS, videos, defense.
why would you want to get rid of them?
