Welcome to the Stacker.News’s ~Design territory. As community of design lovers, we share ours and their favourite pieces, as well as mature, substantive ad constructive conversations about design, designers and thinkers of the past, present and future.
We intend design as the process of creation of a plan or convention for the construction of an object or a system; so to necessarily focus on the visual appeal but design as process of creation aimed at solving a functional purpose with an act of creativity and innovation in any industry or application. Beauty is a consequence of it and it does not mean your post or work needs to be limited to a visual outcome. Be creative!
We know our creative minds need to be feed with insane inspiration. We know, for example, that ~Devs face multiple design challenges per day. We know everyone love beauty and simplicity. Here’s the place to share it all. Please before sharing any link to external sources or posting and commenting anything, make sure you read our guidelines. This territory is strictly moderated and do not give out warnings. Stay Focus!

I don't think there's any doubt that a major crackdown on banks would drastically drop the price of bitcoin in fiat terms. It might be the best thing to happen to bitcoin in the long run. The anti-fragile honey badger will grow stronger as a result. Lazy people (like me) could no longer use kyc and p2p would be the norm. It would be almost impossible for a successful fiat attack on bitcoin at that point.
Good post. Voices like yours will be drowned out by the NGU crowd until the next bear market.
What about the AI4ALL hackathon that just started? Surely you know about that!

Are there any games coming that have Bitcoin in them but that are not play-to-earn?
Kind of tired this morning after my first bitcoin meetup last night. Long drive, but worth it.
Sybil attacks aren't as easy as you probably think they are. Since nodes always make outgoing connections to diverse IP address space, to Sybil attack any node you need to run enough nodes that the entire IP address space is Sybil attacked. That's really difficult as getting access to that much IP address space is really difficult. It's also a risk that isn't related to full-rbf peering: any node has this risk. In fact, arguably full-rbf peering slightly reduces that risk as by default it connects to 14 outgoing peers rather than 10.
Now, if you run full-rbf peering and accept incoming connections you advertise that fact and maybe someone might do DoS attacks against you. But DoS attacks can't make you lose coins (with the one exception of certain Lightning setups).
Anyway, tl;dr: running a full-rbf peering node is having a small amount of bravery. We need people to be brave for society to work. Hell, running the first Bitcoin nodes required a bit of bravery.
Be brave.
I don’t this idea that transgender people need to be quiet about who they are to be valid in their identity is true. Just as there are people who are loud sports fans, there are people who engage more quietly. They’re all sports fans.
I do think this sentiment about AOC is important though, as it speaks to how inauthentic left politicians are. The pronouns cater to a particular group she wants to align with, and when this no longer serves her she can remove them as she pleases. This identity swapping is something that legitimate members of a group cannot do. One cannot remove their queerness, just as one cannot make themselves queer.
I’m probably an example of think of when they imagine a leftist, though I don’t like to hard align myself with any particular political ideology and I’m constantly also looking to find common ground. I don’t find arguing over politics to be as rewarding as I once did, now I see it more as everyone vs the government as opposed to left vs right.
But I’ve always more or less believed that most people mean well. In my personal life I address people as they would like to be addressed, as to me it seems the bare minimum. We have so little control over so many things in our lives, personal identity should always be in the hands of the individual.
I’m aware many will probably disagree with some of my stances, but I hope you will take them with the light heartednedd I intended. I am always open to discussion and learning.
I vote for Andreas.
