Yes, it's a great one. One of the first novels I read as a youngster.
Don't "store" too much of your leisure time in Bitcoin I guess.
Maybe banksters are a specialization of some factors that were part of what drove/drives tribal leadership in decisions to start wars?
Experience true digital cash, ... complete self-custody
"Self-custodial" IOU:s redeemable as long as the given mint is operational.
It will be a massive victory for corporations looking to publish rolled-up data onto the Bitcoin ledger
It's not a massive victory since one could already store garbage in witness data for approximately the same cost.
the default mempool of the latest version of the most popular full node software will no longer filter OP_RETURN outputs with more than 3.9MB of arbitrary data.
OP_RETURNS live within the original 1MB limit. They also need to fit within the much smaller max tx size used for relay, something like 100 KB. Both of these are regardless of version. "3.9MB" is some AI hallucination.
Poinsot and Todd declared victory
Poinsot has not put that kind of energy behind his statements after the merging of that PR AFAIK. This misrepresentation reads like pure ragebait.
Started reading expecting a lack of unit/functional/fuzz testing. Could do with specifying user/UX testing.
Agree this needs to be taken more seriously. We should be ready before a new wave of users come. I'm sure devs seeing how users experience their software would blow their minds and change their priorities.
Have a similar impression of Zeus from a few years back. Expected it to be the bee's knees from having heard about it on podcasts, and it was cool for being made by one guy, but the error handling was raw. Probably has improved in recent years.
There's somewhat of a bitcoin design community to help out with this, but maybe something more is needed to augment them in order to be effective.
Considering that quantum computing could have an easier time attacking naked pubkeys on-chain (Taproot) than more ephemerally exposed pubkeys in the mempool (spending from Segwit), I am hesitant to use Taproot.
Later that month I posted on the same topic: "Start9 Core Lightning node as Stacker.News wallet - Solution" #863903
A family member recommended Gary's Economics. He happens to talk on the subject of how the rich are changed by becoming super-rich.

(While he makes reasonable-sounding ...sounds, I think his conclusions and solutions are wrong).
You can find one of the lead devs Bob McElrath on a couple of episodes here since August at least: https://bitcoinops.org/en/podcast/
My impression is that they are getting more work done recently, but also adding/discovering more work to do.
