@k00b can we get a photography or creative sub please?
I would be keen to share my wandering night time images, here is Shanghai.

π§ Latest pod is out: Exploring Bitcoin, Nostr, and the Lightning Network at Callaghan Innovation's Web3 Team with Kevin Whitmore.
SN fork spotted in the wilds of github: https://github.com/stackernews/stacker.news/commit/1e9c2018b81711fc9855e79808751aae675a851f

cakeshitcoin?! https://cryptodesk.bg/#/Observation: it's harder to pinch off a release when working with multiple people.
We have 14 commits of varying size waiting for deployment but I find myself always want to merge "one more pr" or add "one more thing."
Let me know if thereβs something I can do as a contributor to help this process.
One idea could be to group all the small PRs together and release those relatively quickly, then go in and do the meatier ones over longer time periods to give you more confidence
Thanks! I definitely need a process.
I think once we get some tests on the wallet stuff, no release should require much time to be confident in.
I was noodling around writing tests for some of the sql functions today but didnβt come up with any great ideas that didnβt require spinning up the DB and executing against it. That would make the test suite heavier to execute than preferred, IMO.
Maybe itβs not the worst thing, though. Seed some users. Write test cases that create items, zap, and verify expected wallet states.
I think you're right. There's no alternative to an integration/e2e style test.

That's a good point. One reason I find myself piling in PRs to a release is so I can test everything together ... I think I'm saving time, but I'm probably just slowing the release cycle down.
Today I orange pilled a friend. So much that he actually bought sats.
How do some people fill themselves with shit so well?
lol, I think there's a story to tell

lol That's really it I think
Have you gotten a really solid person that you think is great, and they gave you a metal business card?
No, right?
I think it's a massive red flag if someone gives you a metal business card.
Are they trying a bit too hard perhaps? People who give out metal business cards know how cool they look when they give out metal business cards. Everyone else thinks how uncool it is to try and look that cool.
As an aside in Japan I promise that heavy stock paper and clear script will get you further. The art and presentation of cards is its own ritual.
And you can always watch American Psycho for inspiration (about cards, not murdering people obviously!)
I think the move is decent card stock with hand written info.
it would depend on the business. in high end negotiations leaving an impression can be hard.
lol

Good morning gang!!! It's Friday at last!!! The weekend is about to start and been craving a BBQ with some frosty brewskies so let's see how it pans out, I wish you a phenomenal day, may you feel accomplished, loved and with purpose. You are important, you matter and you absolutely kick ass, tomorrow will be a more relaxing day so today let's give it one last push, you've got this. It has been a rough time but we are still here standing and will continue to do so because we've got this bud. As always, be well and stay frosty!!
Proposed: a shitcoin sub. All discussion of shitcoins would be required to go in there.
On an unrelated note, the US President Joe Biden just called me from his personal cell phone to tell me that I am the president now. They parked Air Force One in my driveway to take me to the White House. "I can't be President right now Joe, I've got a comment on Stacker News to finish writing," I pleaded, but Joe simply wasn't having any of it. He got angry and told me some personal anecdote from his childhood, and now I'm on my way to the oval office to start my new career as a politician. So yeah, THAT just happened.

If your urine is dark when you pee, drink more water until it's light yellow.
and if it's transparent and very often, maybe this should be your last beer.. also drink more water
I'm seeing more and more "posts" that are basically ads.
Is there any kind of moderation here about that?
Because this is a high signal not noise channel, so when I start reading something here I have the idea that it is not an ad, but sometimes it is.
Where?

Currently unemployed. Restrung the guitar and played through most of the night, haven't done that since high school. Feels good man.
Perfect time to tune into your own life and see what you want to do in life.
Happy Friday! TGIF!
Morning everyone! Just all but emptied my SN stack since I was short on sats. I'm ready to get out and stack some more with you guys

Someone zapped me way too much this morning for a dumb little comment I made. I want to know who, but can I trust the pub crew to be honest?
you can't dictate what others find valuable

A state of economics, though some people turn it into a neurotic state of mind

I read this way too early in my day. I understand it a lot better now. I switched jobs very recently to make sure I could do a job I would love. I see too many people stuck in jobs they don't like, but I can't stomach that for very long.
That all written, I have certain goals in mind, and my current state of employment serves as much as a "career" as a step in achieving my goals, but the steps aren't the goal, though the pleasure of mastering them keeps things interesting.

In my few corporate jobs I've found people are reasonable within the paradigms of their responsibilities, however when that responsibility is about money on the line, often reason goes right out the window.

I can do my work with enthusiasm and pleasure without deluding myself as to the nature of my relationship with this work. Someone signs my paycheck and has expectations of my performance. That is a grind.

I highly recommend Chaincode Labs' courses: https://learning.chaincode.com/
Many of us have taken them including many of the protocol contributors. They're free and run by smart people.
