13 YEARS AGO TODAY: Cyprus bail-in plan announced
On 16 March 2013, the Cyprus bail-in plan was announced. Depositors lost an estimated 8 billion € in savings. The move marked the first time the Eurozone directly taxed bank depositors' savings to fund a financial bailout.

Crazy but bears say bitcoin has no use case

Of course it has no use case to them: no way imma give anyone my sats to bail out some banksters.

Grading writing assignments today.

I can't think of a dumber use of time.

But it's a bureaucratic requirement. I'd get rid of writing assignments in my class altogether if I could.

reply

First time I came across a student writing "chatgbt", I thought it was just that one person

then I came across it again, and again.

Are there really people out there who read so little that they haven't seen it spelled? and just going off their hearing mishear it as GBT?

reply

at least I know the chatgbt folks aren't using ai to write their assignment

can't you assign in-class, timed writing responses instead or in addition to this?
should give you some sense of who has the brains to compose an orignal thought

reply

I don't have the bandwidth to grade that many hand written assignments

That's why I call the writing requirement bureaucratic nonsense. The size of the class is not structured in a way conducive to writing assignments

This is exactly why Bitcoin works and why LN works (in self-custodial forms), but none of the solutions that introduce a third party work. And I think on cashu / fedi you have 2 points where it can go wrong: the mints, and the gateways.

It is therefore always inferior.

Hmmm. I can send and receive payments via invoices but I can't receive when I type the lightning address in. Tried from another wallet as well to send to the coinos wallet and it didn't work but sent fine when I created an invoice.

I am having same issue.

I wonder if it is a config issue on CoinOS end.

My guess "staging.coinos.io" is the issue. Maybe they accidentally pushed a hard coded URL from staging to production.

Very good catch. If I remove staging. from the given lnurlp, then it works.

I guessed your lightning address, used it twice manually, and the url it generates always ends up in user not found. Must be something on their end.

few people know that you can zap Zeus team through Zapstore.dev (from where you can install it also).

I strongly recommend zapping the team, not the team lead or individual members: https://zeusln.com/sponsor - I think this is the proper place.

Does anyone have any theories why Carlson & Frens are getting into creating awareness with their following about privacy tech? Like this? Like, getting some 25yo German shitcoiner no one ever heard of on your show to explain cryptography to 2.5M viewers on X alone is an interesting programming choice.

Is it just a massive CYA op for what's about to rain down on them (which in its own may be WWE)? Did the shitcoiners simply buy a slot? Do the Feds approve now that the entire telco network is irreparably compromised? All of the above?

this is how the parasite takes over the host - breeding anxiety thru hatching & biochemical control, followed by complete submission to the will of the parasite gods;

the parasite occupies the host's attention externally, so that the host never realizes to look at himself, internally;

i have not received any valid counter-arguments to this rarionale, and i feel cleaner than ever in my mind and actions, every day!
