#pacificBitcoin I have an extra Gen Admin pass that I can pass along at cost (.015 sats). Reach out.
Wow, 0.015 sats is a pretty good deal. You sure that’s your cost? 😜
Time for a Recipe NIP.
Lack of delegated posting. nsecBunker gets close, but we need a true enterprise key storage and signing solution.
Because there will be many transparent algorithms to choose from, and many (most?) will NOT be intended to monetize our attention.
Bring copies to #pacificbitcoin. And save one for me.
What an awesome blog post, nostr:npub1dergggklka99wwrs92yz8wdjs952h2ux2ha2ed598ngwu9w7a6fsh9xzpc !

I know it’s like 9 months old, but I’m just reading it for the first time. Wow.
What’s amazing is that you wrote it l before the recent acceleration of #nostr development, which fits your thesis perfectly.
Kalua Pork on Big Green Egg
Ingredients:
8-10 lb pork boston butt roast with nice fat cap
60g hawaiian sea salt
2 teaspoons brown sugar
½ teaspoon fine-ground pepper
ti or banana leaves
1 head green cabbage, halved and sliced ½ inch wide
Directions:
Score fat cap and pierce roast all over with carving fork. Rub meat with salt, sugar and pepper. Wrap in 2 gallon ziplock bag and let sit in refrigerator for 12-24 hours.
Prepare grill for 250° with convection and mesquite chunks.
Place ti (or banana) leaves on the bottom of large foil or sheet pan. Place pork roast on leaves fat-side up. Wrap roast tightly in several layers of leaves and tie with kitchen twine.
Place foil pan on plate setter and fill with dechlorinated water. Place wrapped roast on grate directly over dripping pan.
Cook 80 min/pound until internal temperature reaches 190-195°.
Carefully remove wrapped roast from grill, reserving juices. Wrap roast tightly in foil boat to keep juices from escaping. Let wrapped roast rest in towels in a insulated cooler (no ice) for 1 hour.
Unwrap roast in foil pan, discarding wrappings but saving the juice, and pull apart with fork. Broil on medium until lightly crispy.
Mix in sliced cabbage and juices as desired. Serve excess juices on the side.
Serve with white rice, fresh pineapple, macadamia nuts, and seaweed salad.
It’s a good time to listen to podcasts. Now that I work from home, my 1 hr/day podcast bandwidth (during commuting) has been reduced to zero.
Of course, then you’d have to add the ability to have multiple profiles in Damus.
My unemployment journey is ending and I am elated beyond belief!! It was a long and stressful 3-months to say the least, the longest amount of time I haven’t been employed since I was 17.
I’m joining one of the largest community development nonprofits in Boston (and the nation) as their Director of Grants, leading all grant operations for over 200 million dollars in revenue.
I’ll loop you all in more on things we work on, causes, etc, as I get onboard in the next few weeks. And yes I’ll still be running nostr:npub1fpcd25q2zg09rp65fglxuhp0acws5qlphpg88un7mdcskygdvgyqfv4sld
LFG
Nice goin’, dude!
It’s not a particularly complex equation. It’s just a SHA256 hash. You can do that with any computer in a fraction of a second. What makes it hard to mine is that the hash number, which can’t be predicted, needs to be sufficiently low. So it’s like a random lottery.
If my math is correct, it currently requires an average of 6x10^22 attempts to find one.
If you’re asking if the calculations have any other intrinsic value (other than securing the network), such as protein folding, finding high prime numbers, or analyzing SETI signals, the answer is no.
We drink a lot of tea and coffee and all of our mugs get terribly stained. I homebrew beer and use Pro Brewery Wash (PBW) to clean up after a brew day. I discovered that it also works wonders on stained mugs.
To clean coffee and tea stains on mugs (NOT teeth) put a tablespoon of PBW in half a gallon of hot water. Not boiling, only like as hot as your hands can stand. Soak the mug for 15-30 minutes and the stain wipes right off. It has never damaged any of the printing on the mugs.

You can get it at any homebrew shop or online.
Pretty awesome that we can disagree so much on ideal social constructs and the problems we face, yet both agree that Bitcoin is part of the solution. 🤝
It’s going good so far! #49ers
So I was right. We strongly disagree. We’ll see.
That it requires 100% devout socialism to enact any social programs.
It only takes 51% of people to want SOME social programs (roads, sewers, firefighters, education, probably military, maybe healthcare if we’re lucky) and to vote for them. With sound money governments can’t print money (inflation is essentially an invisible tax on the poor and disenfranchised anyway), so the only other option is to enact taxes (ideally on the rich) to pay for the programs.
I’m not talking “socialize all means of production” here.
Hopefully, we’ll have a Bitcoin standard in our lifetime. It’ll be a rough transition and there will be turmoil and upheaval. But when the dust settles, we’ll see if/how people will choose to take care of each other.
I’m an optimist. I think people will choose to take care of each other.
Strong disagree. But hopefully we get a chance to find out.
