What Is This?

This is a recurring post inspired by discussions had by @Undisciplined, @elvismercury and others regarding evergreen content on SN. I’ll dig back into the past to try to locate some great posts that might be worth another read. I plan to release a new Golden Oldies every Tuesday.
Here are this week’s selections:
@bitcoinplebdev was a guest host on Stacker News Live this week, so I thought this was as good a time as any to highlight this post promoting the plebdevs backend course. This is a way for SN plebs to kickstart a career in LN development. I even toyed with the idea of checking it out myself, before I came to my senses.
This is a thought provoking post from a Stacker News legend. I remember reading this post for the first time and realizing how unprepared I was for the eventuality of hyperbitcoinization. Ignoring these issues seems unwise, and maybe dangerous.
Comments and suggestions are welcome.
Here’s a link to last week’s post:

Woah thanks for the feature, can't believe this is a year old already! Let me know if you ever come OUT of your sense haha

@siggy47, you should take the course! I made it through (admittedly barely) and had never coded a day in my life before taking the front end course.

Really? Congrats! You know, if I have the time at some point maybe I will. It seems like an incredible opportunity.

I'm an old guy with a poor memory. This stuff is for young brains. I really do absolutely love what you're doing. How has it been going? Is there demand? I have to believe there are so many stackers who would love this education. BTW, you could probably pull off a side gig as a podcast host😀

Uggh! What a (Dark) future prediction for Bitcoin hodlers and what a great solution. This is the first time I clearly understood why multisig.
I announce I'm now a lifetime fan of @elvismercury.

Can we kidnap @elvismercury and make him write more posts?
reply
tbh If I thought he'd do it, I'd pay him a devs salary to spend his days writing on here.

holy shit

That’s a binding verbal contract.

Hey OP is the only lawyer in this thread, but also I’m cool with that

I remember reading this article. Elvis was here during the march madness, if l remember correctly.
reply
He definitely was -- I joined like two days before MM began, and I'm pretty sure Elvis was the first person whose posts were so good I subscribed to them.
reply
I also remember frost dragon posting recently.
reply
I'm not sure. It seems like he's been gone a while.
reply
It hasn't been nearly as long as it feels like.
reply
I know. I thought he had been gone close to a year.
reply
He made a pretty big post a while back.
reply
He pops in every once in a while.
reply
Does he ever interact with anyone?
reply
Yes, l remember he did. It was pretty recently.
reply
Looks like he hasn't been active since June.
