- In addition to
hot,recent, andtop, you can sort posts byrandom(via tsmith123 on github ... I forget your SN nym ... this was a great idea by someone whose nym I forget too)- It's a another experiment in evergreenness
- You can now add an NWC receive string to your NWC attached wallet (via @ek)
- For anyone using Alby Hub, their relay is a bit unreliable, but we've been in touch and they're working on it
- Almost forgot: you can disable freebies in your settings, guaranteeing you can pay non-custodially for 1 sat posts/comments so they are fully visible
There were also a few bug fixes in here but that's the bulk of it.

Probably just stare at them with a certain level of fear depending on how stereotypical they look as an alien.

It seems that @theariard mentioning that lawyers should be consulted is what triggered the response from AJ Towns, but I can't rule out "being a dick" on either side as the cause either...

Did you already hear about our upcoming Alby Hub? Our upcoming, fully self-sovereign wallet. The lightning wallet build for the web that makes it easy to use all the bitcoin lightning apps anywhere anytime.
With that we'll also have a mobile wallet soon!
Catch-22 is always worth a look. I read at least once a year. That's some catch that Catch-22.
i remember when daily discussions used to look like ghost towns, really cool to see us getting close to 100 comments/day now
This would fit nicely in alongside a "this post/comment was referenced in" feature as suggested on gh.
Sony MH755 earphones. These earphones were the first step to a discovery that lead me to how I do stuff now.
They were dirt cheap ($5~) earphones that came bundled with an old Sony product. There are earphones in triple digit price ranges I have tried that sound worse than these earphones do.
I was lucky to get a pair from Russia and an additional pair elsewhere years ago. Nowadays all you see on eBay are fake clones of them that come from China.
I got the earphones during a time I was trying to be a non-conformist. Was moving to Linux, installed LineageOS on my Galaxy S5, scrapped my HP laptop for an old ThinkPad. I eventually became obsessed with open-source software and started using Tor a lot, wouldn't have learned about Bitcoin at the time if I wasn't into all of this stuff first.
I still have them, with a custom firmware Sony MP3 player too:

Making it invisible. Onboarding a normie in a simple way nowadays is difficult because you will stumble with the problem of them not understanding on-chain vs lightning in minute one. And then you need to spend 30min at the whiteboard just for them to be able to know which menu they should pick in Muun.
We need to abstract more things away until it's dead simple. I'm hoping that Federated Chaumian Mints deliver their promises on this area.
Who was the guy who would always answer in poem?
What would be a low hanging fruit to help with Bitcoin core development, I know some python and JavaScript.
must be strange a strange feeling for a bank not being able to have fractional reserves on their node
A garden
Grow some food, grow some flowers, grow some soil, grow the ecosystem.
This is a very good point. Hadn't thought about it like that. The boost is the incentive for the rest of us :)
would be cool to see this ran again, a lot of changes have happened to all the implementations since then
Oh cool, I already have a cowboy hat, yee haw Car!
“You should stay in a union job. If you don’t, the union can’t protect you anymore”.
Terrible advice from a union rep many years ago after I got hired to a management position. I ended up tripling my salary within 5 years after leaving the union position and then started my own adjacent business that I eventually built up to 2M/yr revenue.
If I stayed in the union job I would be making $45k a year right now.
The waves are interesting. First, it's the War on Terror (I assume), then it's Woke Cancel Culture. It looks like that was dying down, although maybe it's just that Covid shut down a lot of campuses.
I'd be curious if the recent spike is a continuation of the old woke stuff or if it's more about the Ukraine/Russia and Israel/Palestine conflicts.
I notice that many SN users still didn't read FAQ page.
People don't want to read, especially FAQ pages. Sad.

My niece's Sweet 16 is today! Crazy how time flies!
Here for the high signal
I will finish tomorrow the book about the "Magic Hungarian football team", and I will take a break on Monday... Tuesday will start an other book (which btw was planned for this week), The Intelligent Investor (Benjamin Graham, 2006).

How is Fountain financially viable? I guess it won't be difficult to exploit it by running multiple instances 24/7?
None of your business!
You will get (and you have) got a ton of non-fic book recs. If you really want to become less of an idiot (which is a worthy thing to want) here's my "counterculture" advice: read literature -- fiction -- that has mattered to people. You can't go wrong with the classics, but honestly, for these purposes, it barely matters what you read.
Some authors who have meant a lot to me:
If it elicited a big popular response, or a strong critical response, if people cared a lot about it, if it has stood the test of time, it means that something in there stirred something up in lots of people, and it's worth trying to understand that.
Thanks for the detailed response! I get why the Bitcoin line will change horizontally.
I'm a little confused as to why the lighting line will shift vertically. Why do you say that?
yeah haha. was a bit anticlimactic tbh...
I am working on a data analysis project related to flyball. Well, if you have never heard about flyball before, it is a relay race for dogs. The dogs jump the hurdles, trigger a box that launches a tennis ball, catch the ball, and then race back to their handlers. It looks pretty cool and it is very fast. That whole process: run, catch the ball, run back is done by the fastest dogs under 4 seconds.
Here is an obvious result: Younger dogs run faster
