@weareallsatoshi @rleed @ekzyis I'm a little behind on PRs. I'll try to clear everything that's not in draft tomorrow.

No worries!

ETA: is there anything we can do to make the review process easier for you?

21 sats \ 0 replies \ @k00b 1 Oct 2023

You already do a great job. This process is inherently slow so no big worries there.

When I get extra slowed down, it's usually because

something is insufficient in UI/UX
I catch some obvious areas for improvement in terms of simplifications/idioms/code reuse/performance

These are on the subjective side for one and for another they're sometimes non-obvious depending on familiarity with the code and deps.

Even when the code is perfect, testing it, reading line by line, and then context switching from pr to pr is slow.

One of the weird side effects of caring and paying a lot of attention to people is that you can be mean by simply describing who they are because we are prone to self denial.

I agree in general. The right to refuse feedback is void in some circumstances though, eg you're in some fashion dependent on the person or they're behaving like a huge ass.

Learned something interesting about Morocco and Algeria: most people there still use cash and naturally do not trust the banks.! also, they don't even have credit cards there.

perfect candidates to skip the banks altogether

yes, quite lucky in a sense.! Some people are so used to the banks that they are harder to unprogram, yet others can avoid it once and for all.

I kind of want to avoid artificial friendship stuff. I think it's a trap.

We don't have follower counts in real life.

Quick question: at what size of transaction should I choose lightning or onchain?

is 300k sats still deep in Lightning territory?

5 sats \ 0 replies \ @scottathan 1 Oct 2023

All depends on how much liquidity you have, how much you're willing to take the slight security risks lightning can have for payments going through, whether you're using custodial lightning or not, etc.

Basically, no one can really answer the question for you

15 sats \ 0 replies \ @premitive1 1 Oct 2023

no quick answer for that. you don't necessarily know how much liquidity is available to you at any time. One also imagines that at higher amounts the fees also go up. I wonder if there's already a website tracking all that.

Started a 21-day challenge in which I aimed to learn something new about Bitcoin or interact with its ecosystem every day. I would also record my progress on Stacker News.

Day 7 - Visited litstak.com which awards you one sat for looking at two options and then voting for the content you prefer to stay victorious. Looked at 50 such “death matches” for images created by Midjourney and got 50 sats (the maximum number distributed per day) for my effort.

Yo. Bought a pork steak of 380g and paid 1,80 Euros. Here in the villages of Greece inflation came to a halt due to their economic meltdown that never saw a recovery. Sad for the people, I still pay the same rent for my house like 10 years ago...

Cheers anybody. I will have a ''Mythos'' beer now.

ᕦ(ò_óˇ) Day 16 of exercising everyday before the saloon opens.

Went for a 20min run at 10AM. Was ok. I hoped it would feel easier but I think it's just been too long again since I went for a run.

Then I wanted to buy an iced coffee again but when I was in front of the store, I realized it's Sunday. lol

10 sats \ 3 replies \ @WeAreAllSatoshi 1 Oct 2023

Closed on Sunday? Is that common where you live?

0 sats \ 2 replies \ @ek 1 Oct 2023

Yes, regular grocery stores are closed on Sunday. I didn't go to a coffee shop. Is this what you thought and why you are surprised?

442 sats \ 1 reply \ @WeAreAllSatoshi 1 Oct 2023

Pretty much the only thing reliably closed on Sundays in the US is Chick-fil-A. I did figure you went to a coffee shop though, yea.
