Howdy there, partner! Welcome on into the Stacker Saloon.
Saddle on up to a stool and spill the beans about your day, fire away with them questions, or let loose and give us the lowdown on your wild and woolly life. We're all ears, so don't hold back!
We're open round the clock, so mosey on in whenever you please!
Is it just me or do Wednesday’s always feel like the most productive day of the week?
reply
I thought there were research studies that show this
Monday/Tuesday -- groggy from weekend / wasting time catching up on stuff
Thursday/Friday -- tired and burned out / mind looking forward to the weekend
Wednesday = perfect time to get actual work done

There are two ways to encourage more of what you want to see here:
  1. return the OP's favor and help them learn something even if it's just by asking a thoughtful question
  2. zap
reply
  1. I wish more bitcoin and LN developers could be more active on SN and engage in those more technical topics more often. I wish we have here Rene Pickhardt. His insights about LN are truly amazing.
  2. Is still too much noise on SN and interesting topics could be lost in the vast ocean of garbage links and twitts. I know, will take time until bots and spammers will slow down.

hahaha I was just watching them on the livestream.

Totally agree. I really try to engage with thought provoking questions on posts that catch my interest. That, or maybe ask a stupid question that I'm sure I'm not the only one to have.
PS: As I'm typing this, the lag in the textarea is pretty bad. Perhaps it's due to this item having so many comments?
reply
It shouldn't be related to comments at all. There must be something triggering a rerender. I'm not experiencing it on brave.
In the past this has happened due to preview rendering invisibly.
reply
I tried it on a different post with fewer comments and didn't see any issues. Hmm 🤔
reply
Maybe it's causing the comment tree to rerender on every character
reply
That’s what it felt like but I couldn’t run the profiler on the prod build so I’ll probably try to recreate locally
reply
I changed some of the markdown editor code recently. Actually we changed that in quite a few ways last release. That's the only thing that makes sense as the cause imo

Curious what brings you joy every day? For me: learning someone new or having a bit of improvement.
reply

I hope I will not reveal some algo secrets with this, but I found something funny and maybe useful for others on SN, especially for new stackers here.
Every morning I go to SN pool and hit the zap button. Once. Then read the new posts from "all" and if I found something interesting I zap it. You should be the first one doing that and you will see why later. If there are already some comments, zap also those, especially those that weren't already zapped (if are good).
Also post a new comment in the new posts if nobody did it already. Of course if is really necessary, not just for the sake of commenting. Go to Saloon and talk with the funny nemo. Not too much, otherwise will zap you like crazy 😂😂😂
Post a good meta that people are interested too and engage in discussions. Not just post and leave. Engaging will bring you more visibility for your post. If you see that got more sats, go bacl to SN pool and hit that "donation" button again. You can do this anytime, many times per day. Don't worry are not lost sats, but contrary!
Do this all day, when you have time. Then wait for next day. Surprise! Your initial "donation" to SN pool is back, sometimes even more than you expect. Why? Because all the sats in SN poll will be redistributed for your previous "activity". As bonus, you have infinite cowboy hats! Stackers, learn how to use SN...
I do not use SN to get rich... I don't need that, but all these SN sats I use them later to onboard many nocoiners, every fucking day.

stackers have outlawed this. turn on wild west mode in your /settings to see outlawed content.
Be aware, this one is changing almost every day the alias. Maybe we should limit that feature only once, when you create the account.

I've had a standing desk that lowers all the way down to a floor sitting desk for like 7+ years. I got a new standing/floor sitting desk (rather than one I made myself) which allows me to vary my body position more because it has more room under the desk.
Regardless, I still feel my best work-wise with terrible posture and being semi-contorted. It's like I'm trying to leave my body and enter the machine.

Got so bored with preparing my students for the exams that I wrote four short opinion pieces about differing attitudes on Bitcoin. Then for students to match the question to the correct speaker’s opinion (an exam topic). Enjoyed educating them about Bitcoin in the process of completing the exercise!

are we starting WW III already or not? Ukraine invasion Israel chaos North Korea madness waiting to happen... Taiwan invasion waiting for now...
reply
They are clearly escalating and broadening the major geopolitical conflict but i really hope that their money printer and fiat ponzi will collapse before the world catches fire.
reply
I've been saying for a while now, that history is going to consider us as already being in the middle of a major conflict.
That WW III has already begun, will be acknowledged soon. (Was that even English?)

Our next door neighbor is known locally as the raccoon lady. The DEA has paid a few visits to her home with red lights flashing. She is a rehabilitator, but she also tames the critters and keeps them as pets. Her husband (rip) once showed me a photo of a raccoon sitting with him on their couch watching football.

also a good chance to reflect - was it something causing you unhappy / something not healthy boiling inside.
I strangely had a food allergy two months ago, it never happened to me; and I felt my body got triggered due to some unhappy family issues, so it led to a food allergy? but I'm still trying to understand it.

What the actual mad hell is that? Jesus petting a badger?!?
reply
The image of Jesus looking like that was put into our heads for generations, by the masters in propaganda.
I bet that Jesus wasn't looking like that. As nemo said: I see just a man petting a badger.
reply
Isn't the bible also mention never worshipping any human face? I never understood why so many human faces in the churches.
reply
churches are a scam. shitcoiners
People do not pay attention to what they say in their papal buls. Search for these and read them. Literally says how they want to enslave the world. Bula Papal 1302 – UANM SANCTAM ECCLESIAM Bula Papal 1455 – ROMANUN PONTIFEX Bula Papal 1481 – AETENIS REGIS Bula Papal 1537 – CONCILIO DE TRENTO
reply
I haven't dug too deep into it yet, but one thing I can tell is churches give me chilly feelings, the faces there are scary too?
reply
churches were designed to be places where people are pushed into submissive position, to teach them how to obey the rulers... for centuries.
reply
and why do they need a priest sitting in between? why can't they directly talk to god?
I have learned that there is no such person or leader in Islam, and Muslims pray to Allah directly, no middle men, nor any photos, so I found it quite interesting seeing the difference.
