Never crossed my radar until yesterday, and then it was like everywhere.

YOU WILL HAVE THE MONEY TO PAY YOUR BILLS.
The essential goal is to have a steady income that is enough to pay your basic bills, as this financial stability is the ultimate shield against financial stress. When your income (especially passive income, if possible) covers your fixed expenses (housing, food, transportation), you eliminate the daily anxiety of financial survival. This stability isn't about being a millionaire; it's about having control over your most fundamental needs. Achieving this steady flow is the first major milestone in managing your money, transforming uncertainty into security.
This financial stability gives you complete peace of mind because it eliminates the constant dependence on a single salary or a job you hate. When your basic expenses are covered, your mind is free to focus on growth, health, and relationships, instead of constantly worrying about bills. This peace of mind is invaluable; it's the most important asset you can "buy" with your money. It allows you to make bolder, more passion-driven career choices, knowing your livelihood is secure.
Once you achieve this financial stability, the money you continue to earn is free to focus purely on exponential growth. You no longer have to dedicate every penny to paying for the essentials; now you can invest aggressively in assets, education, or high-potential businesses. Financial stability is the springboard: it gives you the peace of mind needed to shift your money from a defensive mode (covering expenses) to an offensive mode (multiplying wealth), which is the true path to complete independence.
“Creation - that is the great redemption from suffering, and life's growing light. But that the creator may be, much suffering is needed and much change. Indeed, there must be much bitter dying in your life, you creators.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche

@murch and @jimmysong discussing filter stuff live
view on primal.netview on x.comI've always formulated the censorship resistance solution the other way around from what Murch is saying: if you wanna include a tx that everyone wants to ban, use a direct submission bribe; the out-of-band submission is a feature, not a bug.
If miners wanna make money without morals, then so be it. If they wanna put jpegs or Trump pics on mempool.space, fuck them, they're retarded. They'll make mistakes thanks to their retardation in the long run and become obsolete. But "removing the incentive for private mempools" is an unreachable goal: there will always and should always be sidechannels. Because that is censorship resistance; the opposite of BIP-444. I can run a BitAxe for 2000 years and maybe it will mine my tx. Or I bribe a pool for 10k sats and actually have a reasonable few-hours-at-most timing. How much is speeding up 2000 years worth of waiting for a single tx to be confirmed to ya?
What I'm the most allergic to is the word "we". Fuck "we". "We" is what is causing the "war".
Did like the way @Murch explained it later on though. The only thing that I know based on my own FOSS experience that doesn't work is "loosely organized". With the only exception of a security maillist, you have to be either organized like you're a shitcoiner rugging people, or be not organized at all. The process is open, that's all that is needed.
Open processes are very well defined in Bitcoin Core, from
CONTRIBUTING.mdtodoc/release-process.md. If next time all maintainers are in a single spot and get taken out by some asshole with a bomb, anyone can continue the work, save for havingbitcoin/bitcoinmembership, third party tool like transifex control. However, with b10c's mirror scripts, bitcoiners can always move on, no matter what happens.Been bedbound for 4 days ugh. Whatever bug there is out there rn, it's nasty.
Missed the weekly AI post - will have to do a "The last 2 weeks in AI" on Monday.
start the parasite cleanse; at least do olive oil + lemon juice shots; fast for 12 hours at a time or more; most importantly - no carbs! starve them;
Get well
Thank you. Think/hope/pray I'm there-ish now. Just a cough that has to go... soon!
Drink that tea 🍵
Yeah. Been drinking tea all week. Need something stronger, you're right. 😂
I haven't been active on Stacker News for a while. Can someone tell me what these are that I see in the notifications? 🤔🤔

@mega_dreamer, trying to create a market, i get gets stuck on this screen...
We're getting hit with major traffic volume. Our traffic just went up by 300% especially after Rob created the knots vs core markets.
Our back-end wallet management system is being hit hard, thus during time time of high traffic the invoice doesn't get created.
If you can, please wait until Monday. We're releasing a fix for major performance upgrade. And all those nagging issues will be fixed.
Sorry for all the inconvenience caused.
No worries. The ransom of success. Good luck solving the issues.

Good morning stackers. I am feeling tired and unmotivated today.
I suspect that's rare for you
Not really, it's fairly common... though I think today is worse than usual
I bought some Bitcoin via Paypal. First time seeing Bitcoin and crypto in there so I had to try.
Careful out there, if you click "random" you'll see how many zombies there are still shambling around.
WoW! 🧟 All the stackers that were inactive for more than 36 hours got straight up infected! Haha!
export const HALLOWEEN_INACTIVITY_TIMEOUT_HOURS = 36It’s incredible that I have to say this: update to iOS 26.1 if you’re on 26.
Apple fixed a CSS bug they introduced that caused this weird spacing:
A workaround might be non-trivial if not impossible, it’s just that Safari 26 (so also PWAs) broke fixed positioning, so an update is required.
Yea I still get this drives me nuts
Even with the new update? I'm not getting it anymore
Hey @sime the postcards season is coming.
How long do you think will take to send a postcard to UK using your https://bitcoinpostcards.net services?
Or can I make the postcard now and define a specific delivery day in the future?
We are at the mercy of the surface mail system.
To Europe the best I have see it two weeks (Netherlands).
The cards are printed in US and the shipped. When mail pieces go internationally they are centralised until they build a pallet/container then put into a ship.
Since the UK has a lot of relations with the US I bet mail gets pretty quickly delivered. 2-3 weeks buffer seems good.
Just to be clear I'm not personally delivering the postcards.
Thanks for reply.
I imagine. Was just asking to organize my postcards. I would like to use some this season.
Yeah wanted to end a serious comment with a joke.
Tether has bought another 961 Bitcoin worth $97.3 million, according to onchain data.
Printing money to buy Bitcoin...!!

i really like the 7-11 relationships: it's in the Great Pyramids, circled squares, Vitruvian man, etc.
Dope, I bagged 117 sats today! They're all yours, you deserve that for real!

Working towards 0.001 BTC
You can overcome anything in life, the key is not to give up, folks.
The goal is not to have 1BTC and retire...
The goal is to always have more sats then yesterday, even if you spend them.
This is the point that many bitcoiners do not get it.
I have a bot that buys me 1 real worth of BTC every day. It's not much, it's 180 to 200 satoshis. For example, if I go to the supermarket and don't buy a beer, when I get back I buy that amount in BTC. If I manage to catch a bus and don't pay for an Uber, I imagine I spent the money on an Uber and buy that money in BTC. And that's how I gradually buy a little more BTC each week.
Yes, every single step like that counted. You are doing it great.
Bitcoin is "savings technology" if you know how to manage well your budget.
And once you understand its savings power you learn how to spend less and live a simple life with all you need.
I will tell you a "secret"... because christmas and black friday is coming.
From 2012 from when I started with BTC until now, I made a promise to myself.
Every year when is the "spending season" (christmas, black friday ettc) and you are bombarded with fake "sale offers", just allocate every year a third of your "gifts" budget to buy more sats for you (or maybe for your family).
That way your stash of BTC increase every year and your spending habits are lower every year. Gifts doesn't have to be expensive... but BTC savings is more important.
You will remember my words: spend your sats wisely.
Thank God, since we're migrants, we don't have family here or close friends to give gifts to. We spend Christmas here at home, peacefully. This time of year is quiet for us, and until I pay off my credit card debt, I don't plan on buying anything "big" anymore.
In fact, yesterday I paid off another credit card debt, and I plan to let that one expire. Thank God I don't have to deal with a chatbot to cancel it.
Next month I'll finish paying off another card.
And that will only leave me with one more to completely escape this first cage.
hahaha so you are this guy?
Hahaha, yes...!!!
Trying to get out of the cage
That one’s really good, especially for the details between levels, especially below 1 BTC. Why’s it like 0.0001 = 100 USD, 0.001 = 1000 USD, and so on?
