another thing that grinds my gears other than idiots who don't get bitcoin is people who don't get it that proof of work can't be used except with bitcoinif you actually study the history of this technology you will see that only one use of it has really been successful: bitcoinhashcash never got anywhere for email antispambitmessage eventually got overrun with spamming minersall the bitcoin forks and derivatives like cryptonote based coins like monero have all pretty much diedalmost nobody uses pow on nostr because it's impossible to do it fast enough on javascript or webassembly compared to a pure C implementation. though, i will say that signature algorithm based proofs are actually currently quite expensive to accelerate, but you can guarantee that if it became valuable GPUs would be doing it and back to square onejust stop it with the bitcoin hating, and the proof of work stupiditybitcoin has proof of work, no other system can use it. the end. good morning.

many of the ride-or-dies on nostr are refugees banned from the rest of the internet. the people who are not offending The Algorithm have no real incentive to stay, and so they don't.#nostr is for freaks. always has been, always will be. except for primal, which will always be Jack's bleeding heart for the "old days" of twitter.“I Am Jack's Medulla OblongataI Am Jill's NippleI Am Jack's ColonI Am Jack's Raging Bile DuctI Am Jack's Cold SweatI Am Jack's Complete Lack of SurpriseI Am Jack's Inflamed Sense of RejectionI Am Jack's Smirking RevengeI Am Jack's Broken Heart”― Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club

how could that be Christ like if it makes things worse?no, actually, the whole point, which many people deliberately ignore, is that it enables a righteous society when the society is capable of recognising mischief.mischief is the crack that the bad guys stuff a wedge in to widen as much as they can.

are the laptops that can do more than hallucinate in the room with us right now?i've not seen a laptop with credible capabilities to run LLMs over about 10b for under $5000also i only pay 90/month for claude max 5x, which is not the 20x that you refer to. i literally wouldn't be able to USE that much tokens in a month.

if that is in comparison to claude sonnet then you are saying it's not even as good as cursor's composerclaude gives you opus 4.5 for the same price as they used to charge for sonnet.

that's also illogical because our experience as physical beings includes the intangible. that is not contradictory.

interpreting it is not necessarily the same as "making it mean whatever you want". i'm sure you've read or watched more than a few mystery stories. curiosity is not a sin. central to false religions is always prohibiting curiosity.you haven't read half of the peripheral texts associated with the same cultures and movements and even libraries from which the bible is composed. your interpretation is colored by your adherence to doctrines that you don't question.

pressure cooker is overkill for jam. really it barely needs to be cooked at all.

my mother was a huge fan of pressure cookers. they cook so fast because of the amount of heat water holds and the fact that it gets above boiling point. in an open pot it would get to about 90-95'C but in a PC they can get over 120 and that is a lot more increase in energy than you realise (it's maybe 20x as much or some number like this).also i saw this great little DIY how-to make a waterproofing treatment for sheets that made them superior to commercial tarps, and he said "use the lowest setting so you don't make the wax/oil mix smoke up" and while it may seem like it's great it's gonna be quicker, higher temperatures can damage the proteins more. my mother never made jam in my memory, but mostly what she cooked in it was meat and high protein plant foods, and those are fine to heat well past 150-200'C. pectin, however, i don't think it will gel up as well if you overheat it.i had to ask claude to make my info more precisePressure cookers typically reach around 120°C (250°F) compared to 100°C (212°F) at atmospheric pressure. This does affect pectin, but not necessarily in a damaging way:What happens to pectin at high temperatures: - Pectin chains can undergo hydrolysis (break down) at elevated temperatures, especially in acidic conditions- Extended exposure to high heat reduces pectin's gelling ability- The damage is time-dependent — short cooking times minimize degradation Why pressure cookers still work for marmalade: 1. Reduced cooking time — The higher temperature dramatically speeds up softening the peel, so total heat exposure may actually be less than traditional methods2. Two-stage approach — Many recipes pressure cook the fruit first to soften it, then add sugar and pectin for a brief open-pot boil to reach setting point3. Pectin addition timing — Adding pectin after pressure cooking avoids exposing it to the elevated temperaturesPractical advice:- Use pressure cooking only for the initial softening of citrus peel- Release pressure, add sugar and pectin, then boil briefly at normal pressure to set- If using the fruit's natural pectin, slightly increase the amount of high-pectin components (pith, seeds in a muslin bag) The technique works well — you get tender peel in 10-15 minutes instead of 1-2 hours, with minimal pectin loss if you time it right.-----so, yeah, it's too much for getting the pectin to gel right, you may find this is very liquid after it sits in the fridge.

it was almost a year of frequent spikes in fee rates thanks to blockstream pushing taproot with its unlimited witness push, that really harmed reputation and price as a hard asset. between segwit and taproot, the marks of attempting to turn bitcoin into a stock market order book processing system are obvious to anyone.none of this is helping, and it's my view, that what we need, more than anything, is a new reference implementation, with all of the efficient algorithms in core, but in a more accessible language, and a more open, modular design that encourages more devs to join the work and continue to improve the defence of the monetary use case, and deprecating the infestation of fiat shitcoinery, and to effectively apply pressure against this shitcoin non-monetary use case by sheer force of numbers and squeeze more and more of that trash to the back of the mempool queue, forever.i'm not well funded or promoted to do this work, but i know the codebase of btcd and btcwallet, inside and out, i did a massive, comprehensive fork for a PoW bitcoin fork back kin 2018-2021, and i have long wanted to fork all of that shit, btcd, btcwallet, and lnd, all of them primarily presided over by one of the "coinventors" Olalua Osuntukun aka Roasbeef, and having tried to contribute PRs to resolve outstanding issues, important ones for deveolpers, especially, and been stonewalled and ignored, i basicallly gave up on it, but i can say right now that if you offered me 24k euro annual pay, ideally weeklly, i would fix all of that shit and make it BETTER than core, in every way. faster, less buggy, more user friendly, more privacy protecting. without a second thought.but of course, tptb don't want htat, and it should be obvious that Warsh saying "i'm not afraid of bitcoin" means their strategists are confident that their ongoing compromise of the protocol, and the userbase, is far from showing any signs of failure, and those who could fund the work i could do, do not want to, and those who would want to, can't.but who knows what blessings may appear when one doggedlly persists in doing whatever they can to turn the ship around away from the field of fiat icebergs. never give up. never surrender. never compromise the core principles and ethics, and put the pedal to the metall, enabling the plebs to prevaill over the pompous, baby raping shit eaters who are currently successfully dominating.
