Nick Szabo's 1999 paper on micropayments reveals that while tech lowers transaction costs, the mental burden of deciding on small payments holds us back. #AI #micropayments #cognitivecost #innovation. We need more intuitive interfaces to make it work!
My biggest gripe with quantum topics is that there's a lot of bullshit interwoven with facts.
Trying to understand it without understanding maths Is useless, and with math you realize that most of it is only understandable in the context of #math itself.
Most of what we see on video is just people trying to "interpret" the math in the worst ways possible.

Trump’s realpolitik: Breaking old alliances, forging new deals
From RT
Why the US is turning its back on Western Europe and looking to Russia A year ago, if someone had told me that the United States would pressure Ukraine into paying reparations, demand that Russia no longer be called an ‘aggressor’, float the idea of annexing Canada, and chide Western Europe for its lack of […]
sending/receiving NIP17 DMs on nostr unlocks SOOO much good social interaction. That's why I'm so passionate about testing it. I *really want it to work.
The search for the world’s oldest dishes and beverages is a challenge, as exact origins are difficult to determine. However, archaeological evidence suggests that early civilizations practiced fermentation, baking, and preservation thousands of years ago.
Some of the earliest known culinary discoveries include prehistoric bread, fermented beverages, and aged dairy products, highlighting the ingenuity of ancient food traditions. While research continues to refine historical timelines, these findings provide valuable insight into the evolution of human diets and culinary practices.
Israeli jets flyby over Nasrallah funeral ‘act of terror’: Iran FM
From Press TV
Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi denounces Israeli jets low flyby over a Lebanese stadium, where a funeral ceremony for martyred Hezbollah leaders was taking place, as an “act of terror” meant to terrify mourners.
I've been testing this for a couple weeks (in various forms). I've
been getting over 96% reduction in block-bytes sent. I don't have a
good metric for it, but bandwidth spikes are greatly reduced. The
largest blocktxn message I've seen on a node that has been up for at
least a day is 475736 bytes. 94% of the blocks less than 100kb must be
sent in total.
In the opportunistic mode my measurements are showing 73% of blocks
transferred with 0.5 RTT even without prediction, 87% if up to 4
additional transactions are predicted, and 91% for 30 transactions (my
rough estimate for the 10k maximum prediction suggested in the BIP.
