50 sats \ 0 replies \ @JesseJames 17h \ parent \ on: Google Cloud outage brings down a lot of the internet tech
I heard Cloudflare told them a way early and they just sat on it for like an hour... sad
Another reason to run your own stuff if you can (might be "big if" for some), own cloud (e.g. proxmox, k8s) own bitcoin node :-) if you can that is... Then you like the badger, just don't care ...you do you ...
I'm pretty positive that a lot of lawyers look at that agreement to make sure he is covered. The ambiguity of these agreements plus lack of clear regulations (we don't need them is MHO) came back to bite them.
If they knew how to stop him, they would. I don't think they can prove he used their funds to buy it. There are 100's of ways to muddy the waters and IMF ain't clever enough to figure this out. El Salvador is :-)
The fact they try to stop him from buying BTC is even more motivation to get some more, if IMF is pissed it means he is doing something right. No other org can tell him what to do, they can ask but the rest is the President's call.
I kinda like that guy (tyranical or not) his people have better standard of living, Blink wallet is not the worst in the world, he seems truly cares about his people... I wish him and his country well.
We bringing Concorde back? :-) We should have something cooler and way faster by now.
It takes SpaceX to go up to about 100 miles and back in 5-10 min, not sure about the range with some modifications if you go high enough one can be in Europe in 30 min :-)
Wise choice @siggy47, Very soon you will see the "environment friendly" version of it too lol...
I heard that they cost more to produce than they are worth, why we still doing this is beyond me.
The only "coin" we should be using is Bitcoin :-)
I would agree that there is some "worry factor" while even some of us (yours truly included) are not 100% clear on Lighting rules and channel liquidity, it is almost impossible to ask/encourage new guy to participate and have 1 mil sats channels (1M is $1000 mind you) just for buying coffee and movie tickets once in a while.
Phoenix mobile wallet and Blink making it easier for a new folks to grasp or experience the new cool reality but there is a rather steep learning curve and not everyone will make it... IMO. YMMV
Nice explanation, thanks.
That's a lot of assumptions though.
- Only bad guys will have quantum to break the encryption an steal your BTC
- If they can afford to buy or use quantum computer, why would they need to steal your BTC? :-)
- What if WE create our keys with quantum computer, (aka we have the same tools) then we go back to trillion years to find a solution?
Plus, I think we still have some time to figure this out. Quantum is mind bending and I can't wait for the future to come :-)
I bet you a satoshi that he still has "few" of them stashed somewhere that no one but him knows about it :-)
I would be surprised if he didn't. Good for him... He got vilified and spend 10 years in the can. Glad he is out and that he speaks about, good speech in Vegas BTW.
does the order of upgrade matter? miner.bin first and then www.bin or it does not?
Ahh, nice... asked and answered, it does not, when you upload both it restarts itself ...
Thanks for the update !
Build k8s small test cluster from scratch with etcd on lxc containers and super fast drives + cilium as cni for more security and ceph storage. Tons of fun :-)
Next week or month, maybe to get BTCPayServer on k8s :-)
I don't know the kid, didn't watch him play in college either, but I could imagine the anxiety of drafting him high. He also comes with a baggage namely his Father, he will be at many games and doing interviews, not many clubs need/want that drama.
Personally I think it was good what happened, the kid was drafted, got what he wanted (who cares what round), he does't need money or fame, already got that. The best thing that could happen to him is to shut-up and work his butt off... then win the starting job and have a great season. Then ditch every interview or keep it to bare minimum. Show them what you can do and stay humble, not sure he can do that. It would be nice though.
