Just bumped into Lex Fridman at the airport. Spent a few minutes showing him how Stacker News works.

At the end fo the week, SN Tweets out a stats summary:

How does the number of posts (not all items, just posts) get computed? A SQL query, or something that can be accessed/seen publicly?

I'm sick to death of these lightning node distributions moonlighting as "Bitcoin Nodes"

Reminder that here you can update your default SN payments. I'm now giving by default 101... it would be a shame if I would be a better "sats giver" than you, wouldn't it? And just to be clear about it, 100 sats is roughly 2 cents USD... so you can still smash that lightning couple times :)

@k00b, would it be an interesting stat to have about what is currently the largest default "tip" across all users? (I'm still not sure how I feel about calling it a "tip")

Late stage democracy sucks. The representatives literally have nothing to do so they vote on things such as "Is pregnancy a female biological process" and half the chamber is like no, and the other half is like yes, and then they can bicker about that for the next two years. Truly astounding

Reading "the Network State" and it's definitely an interesting read, set of perspectives and ready-to-go twitter arguments :)

Reading it makes me realize that the main competitor of Stacker News is The New York Times. Eventually.

Learning React while working on https://UselessShit.co. Today I'm taking a deeper dive into Formik (forms library) :)

Formik is great! I use it for all of SN's forms

Does anyone out there have app and password fatigue? It seems like everything needs a mobile application! I just got an email about an app to manage my road toll booth payments!!! Not sure if Bitcoin is going to make this better or worse but does everything need a mobile phone app? Sheesh

maybe if we could authenticate all this stuff with a lightning "wallet" it would make thigns easier. but I don't really understand about this stuff.... yet.
