Dang, I thought this was a metaprompt.
I can study those claims and the knowledge revealed, and have faith in those claims, but I struggle (or haven't tried hard enough) to have a relationship with God that way.
IME God reveals himself best to me through his creation. The revelations experienced by other people can confirm my own and I'm thankful for that. The revelations experienced by other people are also, if not limited in detail by their own capacities, are limited by my capacity.
k00b: “I don’t think you can think much about God.”
I'd guess I mostly meant that given what God is, I'll never think about him enough to feel like I've thought "much" about him.
You may also not know that women tend to ovulate around the full moon.
i'll also sometimes say, hedging, that we are "still working on noncustodial stuff."
i am my own worst enemy.
maybe part of the problem is that i explain what i'm working on as a "refactor" which is a huge understatement. i've been making our microeconomy(s) trivial to program/change/configure/analyze.
i'm actually looking forward to code review again lol (and feel bad about all the PRs that've been sitting).
i'm also excited to work on things people consciously want again so that when I tell people what i'm working on i get more than the polite silence of "oh no, he's lost the plot."
omg. refactor is actually almost done. remaining QA/testing things:
- QA rewards (make sure they still work after all the subsystem changes)
- serious testing/review of noncustodial state machine edge cases
after that it's just planning for the maintenance window then i can go back to being a normal, abnormal human being again.
lol I guess this hotel was the center of Austin’s “red light district” a few decades ago. And the sign looks like a male reproductive organ and is still there
All this time I thought he knew. He could also be feigning ignorance which is probably the best thing he can do if he's running one of the mints (or wants to encourage others to run mints).
I can't imagine any lawyer telling him that a centralized mint with any bidirectional convertibility (natively or even on a secondary market) between ecash and bitcoin, advertised or not, is not an MSB/money transmitter.
He must think all other custodians that KYC customers are doing it for fun, because they hate privacy, and any service that's noncustodial when they could use ecash is run by idiots.
Surely the people giving him grants know this.
Interesting scheme. I was curious how it was both "anchored in the bitcoin" and not putting data on-chain which is laid out in (4):
- Publish a kind:61600 event with your desired name.
- Publish a kind:62600 event with connection data.
- Publish a kind:63600 event with metadata.
- Publish a kind:60600 event, referencing the above and including a Bitcoin self-transfer as proof.
This inversion of offchain referencing onchain rather than the reverse is not something I've seen before.
I was also curious how one can "Have whatever name you want and change it whenever you want" and it appears that that's only true if your name carries metadata about how to verify the name:
alice.n50.5 alice.b1000050.5
This can be shortened to another encoding I guess:
To improve human readability and memorability and make referencing DNN names easier, DNN supports an extra encoded format that compresses the block number and transaction position into a compact alphanumeric string.
The above example becomes:
alice.agd-abandon alice.ytj-abandon-zoo
Which is objectively more human friendly even if it's unsatisfying.
Overall I feel like I'm not able to "Have whatever name I want" but it's an interesting scheme.
