What would happen if we open sourced all regulation and law? I mean put it on github and anyone could make pull requests to change it

If you start using block reward to pay for security long term then you are going to need an adversary, you are going to need to create an enemy to convince the people that miners should be making all this money, and this inflation is good. This is just my take on the tail emission debate.

5 am Central? What are you? One of those "morning people" freaks?

It’s crazy how many sats I can stack using fold and pay pal to pay my mortgages and credit card bills. Especially the credit card feels like I’m getting double rewards with points and sats. Thanks to the SN user who put me on to this!

Would you mind double-checking an invoice for me? The wallet I'm using said it was successfully sent, but SN says it expired.

reply

Checking now ...

Edit: it looks like it went through eventually. We had some issue connecting to our node today via Tor.

Thanks for looking!

I completed the London Marathon yesterday!

What an awesome experience. I set out for a difficult challenge and certainly got one. It was my first Marathon, I completed it in 4:22:20.

A big achievement for me that I set out to accomplish 5 years ago and drew a line under it yesterday. It won't be my last.

Everything hurts.

Awesome

Today I'm adding testing with jest to my fun project at https://uselessshit.co & since it's raining outside I'm taking a day off from building a cabin 😉 Tomorrow is supposed to be sunny, so my plan is to finish the floor and start framing the walls 🙂

reply

The sky cleared up and it's looking promising, so likely I'm changing my plans and moving my focus to the cabin 🙂 Also I'm having some trouble setting up jest, so I better take a break from coding and come back later with a cleaner mind 😄

Thanks for the offer! 🙂

Here's one question for ya: What would be a good practice when it comes to testing methods inside functional components?

reply

Oh, haha, that I don't know, sorry.

I have no idea of frontend testing. I just know jest from backend testing.
