I really enjoy the book review as a genre. When done well it can bring you to all manner of new thoughts without ever ending a spoiler alert. And yet, I'm wondering if the book review is already dead.

And we could all have been talking about Albanian generals with problems...

I have long felt that, because it was posed as a cute problem about philosophers seated around a table, Dijkstra’s dining philosopher’s problem received much more attention than it deserves. (For example, it has probably received more attention in the theory community than the readers/writers problem, which illustrates the same principles and has much more practical importance.) I believed that the problem introduced in [41] was very important and deserved the attention of computer scientists. The popularity of the dining philosophers problem taught me that the best way to attract attention to a problem is to present it in terms of a story.

There is a problem in distributed computing that is sometimes called the Chinese Generals Problem, in which two generals have to come to a common agreement on whether to attack or retreat, but can communicate only by sending messengers who might never arrive. I stole the idea of the generals and posed the problem in terms of a group of generals, some of whom may be traitors, who have to reach a common decision. I wanted to assign the generals a nationality that would not offend any readers. At the time, Albania was a completely closed society, and I felt it unlikely that there would be any Albanians around to object, so the original title of this paper was The Albanian Generals Problem. Jack Goldberg was smart enough to realize that there were Albanians in the world outside Albania, and Albania might not always be a black hole, so he suggested that I find another name. The obviously more appropriate Byzantine generals then occurred to me.

I auto-compact with the default min-age, but LND writes to an oversized and more performant/resilient separate volume. This was problem was bitcoind running out of storage.

I should get my sleep schedule back to aligning with peak SN hours

I've been indulging in a kind of fallow, neglecting my body, the last few months (okay almost six months now). Time to right that ship.

pager/alarm system

I have a non-muted ntfy (self-hosted) topic for that. Works okay, unless I am completely exhausted, then I just sleep through it all.

There used to be an exclusion group (at least for contacts) on iPhone, but I haven't used one in a while - not sure if that is still working the same way it did. The downside of a separate phone is that you have to charge it.

Make a vapid breathless post about price and then 10 minutes later repost? I would really like to know if this is a strategy that works. Rizzo has a ton of followers, so it seems to be working, but maybe there's something about it that I don't get. It seems so...stupid?

Did you see Meta's recent move? WhatsApp recently added a new feature that lets people reserve their usernames, so they can just give out these id instead of contact numbers in the future, so-called privacy protection, but I feel this is a massive data mapping.

Hello everyone, I have some ENJ currency on the matrixchain network and in the enjin wallet, how can I convert it to another currency and transfer it to another wallet without registering and authenticating? If there is a way to convert it to Bitcoin Lightning, that would be great. Otherwise, other currencies like Polygon or Litecoin would be fine. Thank you for your guidance. The amount is small, about $5, but I really need this amount of digital currency. I can't buy it through an exchange. I was only able to get these ENJs with difficulty. I can't convert them and do my work. Thank you for your guidance if there is a way.
