Since Chinese New Year is coming soon, I entrusted some students to decorate the outside of my classroom. They did a wonderful job. My classroom now looks inviting. I hope that they will be diligent this year and make their dreams come true.

Someone just sent me a DM on SN but I think we have a bug where we show an old nym (renamed nym in same session) since the nym used in the identifier in that message does not exist.

If the person that sent me that DM reads this, would be nice if you can send me another DM with your current nym included in the message itself :)

I've learned something really interesting tonight, it's called the gap limit problem.

The background story is I received a new payment in BTCpay today, but it's not showing up in my external wallet! so strange, and to make it even more strange, the newly created address is not even "matching" on the address lists in my wallet.

Basically the BTCpay dashboard shows the new payment and confirmed, also shows the correct balance, but no new tx in my wallet, ugh - where are my missing sats? 🕵🏼

After checking and asking around, I found out there is a thing called the gap limit problem!

The majority of third party wallets are light wallets, which share a node between many users. To prevent performance issues, both light and full node reliant wallets limit the amount (typically 20) of addresses without balance that they track on the blockchain. BTCPay Server generates a new address for every invoice.

With above in mind, after BTCPay Server generates 20 consecutive unpaid invoices, the external wallet stops fetching the transactions, assuming no new transactions occurred. Once 21st, 22nd, etc invoices are paid, your external wallet won't show them.

On the other hand, internally, BTCPay Server wallet tracks any address it generates itself along with a much greater gap limit.

so the solution I found is toincrease the gap limit. Currently, you can do this only in two wallets: Electrum or Wasabi; I used Electrum for it, and more details are here:)

Hey @orthwyrm - all ok?

Hey Stackers,

Hope everyone's having a great day, stay humble, stack sats and chase your dreams!

Thanks,
Hustle

hola. Do yall know if Mutiny supports hold invoices?

Howdy everyone!!
It's the middle of the week and boy has it been busy today, it's payday and busy as hell at school and reviewing exams, phew what a day, anyways, I wish you all an incredible day and may your day be productive and profitable. As always my friend, be well and stay frosty. Sorry for making the post short and sweet but not enough time right now, cheers!!

Just finished an early Lex Fridman podcast with Ido Portal. He mentions that some people spend too much time learning versus doing. I'm definitely guilty of this so it was a good reminder to work on discipline and build more. The last year has been helpful to dial in what works, now to just get to it!

Day 2 of my 4 day fast. No food equals more time here! Still running everyday try to stay under 8 minute mile pace.

PSA: I have moved my push up accountability posting to @Nuttall's daily post in health.

Chris Dixon just released his book Read Write Own today.

I suspect most stackers want nothing to do with the book, some may even be afraid to comment on this post out of fear they’ll be associated with a16z.

Therefore, I figured I’d take one for the team and give it a read myself. Will report back with my thoughts and points I agree/disagree with once I’m done reading it.

Good morning.

The nice thing about teaching is that every day is different because you work with wacky individuals. Today, a retired NASA astronaut called Sam Gemar came to my school to deliver a talk on his career. He talked about how he dared mighty things and dedicated himself towards becoming an astronaut. He also informed us about how astronauts pee in the spacecraft. Fun stuff

I did a poster about his talk for my students subsequently. If only we can learn from one interesting person every day!

Cooking Rice the Turkish Way

As an Asian, I've been eating rice almost my entire life, but the Turkish way of cooking makes it taste so much better! 👀

Ingredients

• rice
• olive oil
• butter
• arpa şehriye
• water ( they use hot water, quite interesting )
• chicken broth
• salt

How?

• rinse the rice
• add the olive oil and butter to the pot
• add the şehriye and stir until light brown
• add the rice, chicken broth, water and salt, stir
• put on the lid and turn to low heat
• wait and done 🤩
