Same. This whole vision of using unique tokens to track all purchases (supply chains, real estate, etc) is literally a WEF wet dream. Jpegs are just the beta test.
Half price ape jpegs for good citizens with a social credit score of at least 800! USDC payments only!
And not to mention all the fake paper wealth like the $1 quadrillion derivatives market, which is the same speculative Wall Street bullshit that drove the 2008 financial crisis (CDOs, synthetic CDOs, etc...) simply can't happen when you have a foundation of sound money.
This is the greatest power of Bitcoin imo. In this way it really can bring the money back under control of the people, not the banking cartel.
If you use Ubuntu or another distro based on it or Debian, the repos will serve up outdated versions of many apps including Kleopatra. If you look for Kleopatra builds direct from the project itself, they have recent builds, and these not only support Curve25519 but actually use it by default to generate new keys.
I use Kleopatra for most of my PGP stuff and never had a problem when using the current releases rather than the outdated repo packages.
I'm still a junior so big companies are good for gaining skills and experience. Once I have more knowledge I will go the same way as you, into a smaller company without the corporate bullshit.
Was a good episode though, he spent most of it mocking shitcoins and SBF 😂
Excellent [guide to using gpg with Curve-25519](https://www.digitalneanderthal.com/post/gpg/).

You can also create a modern Curve25519 key using Kleopatra GUI which is much more accessible for normies. Needs to be a recent version though. The one provided by Gpg4Win supports it. On the Linux side though, gotta avoid distro repos as usual.
Ledger is a bad recommendation for a hardware wallet with their closed source nature and multiple recent security blunders.
Trezor, Jade, Seed Signer all better options.
Got multiple DMs asking how to create a Nostr bot like nostr:npub150zg3mqeqmz4dthsjncvflvwadua66gfhtw4qz3sxg60ym3n767suqr564 or nostr:npub1ms4z8e2fsgjh75vtk8c9pym50gjvp3uxl7uru8v7c7pnd9empadq2ulevr.
All the code along with a write up is on GitHub!
Really excited to see it! Your excellent UX combined with no Apple restrictions will be amazing.
Hope so! It'd be pretty ideal if I could find work elsewhere asap since I'd get my severance + a continuing salary both at once, leaving me with a decent amount to invest in corn and still having enough to treat myself.
There's also regulatory risk for handling Bitcoin payments though. They'd have to comply with various KYC laws in all the markets they operate in too. I think from their POV they'd see Bitcoin adoption as a bigger risk.
Not saying that's my belief. Just that it's a tradfi based business and that's how they will see it.
If they did implement Bitcoin it'd likely be through a centralised payment processor that could convert their commission to fiat.
Yeah def still expecting to interview. Hoping I get more eyes on my application rather than it getting lost in the pile. Thx for the input, hopefully it works out like that for me too.
If you work for FAANG or some other big tech company:
Do referrals actually mean anything? Seen a lot of conflicting info on this, with some saying it makes sure an actual human looks at your application, while others say it makes no difference at all.
I'm talking about referrals from managers I actually know, not low level employees selling em on LinkedIn or something.
Thank you man really appreciate it.
Already got an interview and only just started sending out applications so hopefully something works out.
Lots of competition right now with mass layoffs everywhere though. So 🤞🤞🤞
Sorry I've been away from you wonderful plebs. Real stressful time in my life. Good news? I own a home. Bad news? I lost my fiat mine.
In theory yes. In practice it won't because it wants to take 50% commissions from sales which no one will put up with if they can make decentralised P2P payments.
Delicious 👌
