100 sats \ 2 replies \ @nullama 4 May \ on: Did you know Satoshi was a vibe-coder? bitcoin
Qt, not QT. It's pronounced as "cute", not Q, T.
And no, Satoshi was not a vibe-coder.
Forms for GUI application usually are done visually, and then the low level code is generated from a tool of the GUI framework.
As an example, you can see all these forms (.ui files) from the current Bitcoin Core implementation using Qt here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/tree/master/src/qt/forms
These .ui files are created with a GUI (Qt Creator), and then the MOC (Meta-Object Compiler) generates the required code from them.
All of this is not "vibe coding", it's standard GUI programming.
That's true. I agree with all this.
We indeed live in amazing times.
I do like the "magic" of sending digital files to a website and a few days later receiving the physical thing in your mail. I know there's a 3rd party involved, but it's quite nice.
Is there a minimum threshold before payouts, and what is it?
It seems to be implied that there's no minimum with lightning. It says that they will try to pay with lightning every time, and if it fails, it will retry. If you get the on-chain minimum (0.01 BTC approx) it will be paid on-chain.
Apparently every time a block is found on the pool it tries to pay.
Note: You must ensure that you have one or more Lightning channels and the necessary inbound liquidity to receive payments, otherwise payments to you will fail.
Had a quick look but didn't find any mathematical proof.
Seems like a clear case of survivorship bias
There might be an infinite number of other universes where other physical laws exist, and life might or might not exist there. Maybe there are some other phenomena there that doesn't exist in our universe. But we don't know because this is the universe that allowed life to emerge.
That's no mathematical proof.
Interesting!
Would this work for example with the BoltCard?, it has an NXP NTAG 424 DNA chip.
I mention this because it's much cheaper at £4.99 compared to €25,00 per Satochip
So if you want to help fight off the attacks against humankind, help by writing GPLv3 licensed software. MIT licensed software is not helpful because companies can take it, make it addictive, and attack humanity with your code.
If you look at the real world history, you will see that many companies don't really care about the license. That's partly what motivated this project to exist: https://gpl-violations.org
Be more like Satoshi, and release your code with as few constraints as possible, i.e. MIT:
If the only library is closed source, then there's a project to make an open source one.If the only library is GPL, then there's a project to make a non-GPL one.If the best library is MIT, Boost, new-BSD or public domain, then we can stop re-writing it.I don't question that GPL is a good license for operating systems, especially since non-GPL code is allowed to interface with the OS. For smaller projects, I think the fear of a closed-source takeover is overdone.
With the Bolt Card you can pay sats directly from your own lightning wallet by simply tapping the card on any merchant that supports it, for example BTC Pay Server, or others.
Note that coincorner made available that card for cheap, but you can use any other card with a similar chip. It's not linked to any company in particular.
It is actually faster than a credit card transaction
"We're not allowed to own bitcoin,"
But what happens when they seize Bitcoin?.
They even have the laptop used to seize Bitcoins from 2016 Bitfinex heist at the Smithsonian museum.
So, the US clearly owned those 94,000 Bitcoin at some moment in time.
Next weekend there will be a free 3-day Bitcoin-only event in NSW, Australia: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5520120.0

If you're interested to learn the actual mining process, I can recommend you to check out this open source miner. It runs with cgminer (mining software) which is also open source.
Where did you read that?, the official site says they support all the latest pixels, and I don't see a reason for them to stop supporting pixels:
GrapheneOS has official production support for the following devices:
Pixel 9 Pro Fold (comet)
Pixel 9 Pro XL (komodo)
Pixel 9 Pro (caiman)
Pixel 9 (tokay)
Pixel 8a (akita)
Pixel 8 Pro (husky)
Pixel 8 (shiba)
Pixel Fold (felix)
Pixel Tablet (tangorpro)
Pixel 7a (lynx)
Pixel 7 Pro (cheetah)
Pixel 7 (panther)
Pixel 6a (bluejay)
Pixel 6 Pro (raven)
Pixel 6 (oriole)
Similar to the two large pizzas from Laszlo, here's another less known example:
"$50 Trader Joe's Gift Card for 1 BTC" https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=13480.msg185165#msg185165
That $50 investment is now worth $81,439.62, or 1,628 times the original price...
Linus is the main maintainer of the Linux kernel, and sure, he gets to decide what code goes there. But there's no law against it. Anyone can fork the kernel and make their own changes. Companies do it all the time.
