No not at all. Tbh I wasn’t expecting anyone to show up. And most of you are like 80th percentile of technicality population-wide given you understand and desire to use bitcoin/lightning.
Bit devs attendees are only 10-20% programmers I’d guess so we are probably meeting that requirement pretty well.
Many name brand devs read here but can’t be bothered to participate yet. I suspect that’ll change as we get more people with enough overlapping expertise.
I think that is roughly correct. I feel like an absolute Neanderthal reading some of the technical heavy posts on here but outside of people who actually work in/with tech I have a better understanding of than most people.
I was aware of HackerNews because of this week in startups podcast but when I tried the site I was completely lost. Then last November I saw your twitter account or maybe it was the SN account mention Stacker News was like Hacker News except you can earn sats so I tried the site out and found that a lot of the discussion was bitcoin and macro along with the technical stuff so it was right up my alley and I could learn a bit more of the technical stuff just by being more broadly engaged with the SN community.
