"In this X post, I said I don't know the consequences of BIP-110. Plenty of people called that incompetent, cowardly, or both. Others praised it as humility. It's neither. It's just true. I don't know the consequences, and here's my claim. Neither do you." ~ Jimmy Song I am reading Jimmy Song’s latest piece and things get a bit heated today. The debate around BIP-110 has everyone absolutely certain they know what will happen to Bitcoin. But as Jimmy points out, they don't. And honestly, neither do I. Do we really understand the so...

The open namespace project running into the name searching problem is exactly what was tackled with the self sovereign identity community, which TBD developed a lot for, why not use that. I think you will find the problem results in web of trust types of solutions which ends up being a more distributed DNS. Multiple peoe can prove they own a domain, your community then decides to trust one version of that namespace over the other. This is also an issue with Nostr where you can have multiple accounts with moneyball name, but you trust the nip05 that is associated with the DNS your community accepts.

Cauchy sequence is a sequence where terms get arbitrarily close to each other as the sequence progresses :) Its a way to define convergence without explicitly referring to a limit

Dude @npub12eml5kmtr… 100% describes my math experience in school up to the point I learned physics which was when I finally began to u derstand the value of a lot of these high level math concepts. I have heard a lot describe the value of struggle as developing the concept of "grit" in personalities of people.

No one can own data, you can only know secrets that others don't which can give you exclusive cryptographic control

I want to hear more about math being a subject of the humanities. I love how this pod stresses the urgency of us being able to verify today's cryptography and to be able to independently verify future cryptography (don't get hoodwinked).

Mark and Whitney analysis is fantastic and I am glad for their info presented. I appreciate Guys take on the missing positive aspects. The on/off ramp to Bitcoin is still pretty crappy if it I could get into bit oin easier I would be excited.

I purchased the ‘mega savior pack’ from the Left Behind Supply Company and I couldn’t be more pleased. While I’m assured of personal salvation, what about my friends and family that chose the wrong faith or denomination? The pack includes ’thoughts and prayers’ cards that you can personalize for those left behind while you are in eternal bliss. I opted for the mega pack as it also comes with a beautifuly designed Arma Christi 4 barrel 20 gauge shotgun with the capacity to carry 24 shells. Truly and amazing product and soul saving service.

I'm disappointed he didn't answer the question about where to learn more about consciousness and the nature of reality.

Smith and Schuster, Fractional Cobbler Services, is REALLY missing out on a boot licking service. Influencers, founders, retarded plebs, and wannabe dictators love idea of feeling superior, especially around pod confs. The slogans practically write themselves; Boot licking today, boot licking tomorrow, boot licking as a way of life! Tyfys 🍻

    I appreciate the stance of “I don’t know what will happen so I can’t pick a side” , but the only way to do that is to not run a node. It is pretty binary, run bip110 or don’t. By not running it you are not choosing the bip110 side, by running it you are choosing bip110.

    I don’t agree with everything someone says but 100% agree with the stance @npub10vlhsqm4q… and @Guy Swann have to say about BIP110. Anyone that argues you must “pick a side,” needs to spend a few hours watching the movie: A Man For All Seasons.

    Thank you, Guy. Your content is so freaking important if no one else myself. This was an amazing episode. Thanks for taking the time to make it. After listening to this, I am fully convinced that the whole thing is an absolute a Gillian dialectic psyop. Bad actors on both sides trying to Trying to create a divide.
