@FreePietje @htimsxela Yes, I kinda feel a discrepancy there as well. There's some kind of linguistic restrictiveness at play - multiple subtly different concept mapped onto the same terminology.I guess best way to say it is that not everything that can make up a "collection" is necessarily a "collectible". A "collectible" has a more specific meaning than simply "something that you can collect". It usually implies rarity/non-reproducibility. Like "first run" prints. Does not apply to MP3s.

@FreePietje @htimsxela Wrt. NFTs I think they are worth steelmanning. There's something there, despite the current hype being about fundamentally flawed implementations.Bitcoin has proven that it's possible to have digital things that cannot simply be "cp"ed, and the only thing barring bitcoins from being collectibles is that sats are fungible.

@person I wonder if they will rename the organization to postsuite.

@michaelfolkson @stephanlivera There's a subset of bitcoiners who really care what their non-bitcoiner idols have to say about it. Hopefully they will realize their own error at some point.

@stephanlivera @michaelfolkson It wasn't directed at you, just a thought I have had before wrt. Taleb, that was relevant.

Bitcoin does not create a pollution problem in energy production. It exposes it. Don't shoot the messenger.

@bitcoinmagazine this is a falsehood, that website erroneously marks a pool as fully signalling if the last block is signalling. Many pools only signalling intermittently.

@harding @bitcoinmagazine Since you posted this, btc.com has mined a non-signalling block.

@pete @benis @harding Most schools also require you to wear clothes when you enter. Do you also recommend people to employ pepper spray to defend themselves against such mandates?

@pete @benis @harding And neither does seeing a naked person. Point not so much being to try to quantify what is a worse tradeoff, more the point that maybe don't promote violence.

@pete @benis @harding I'd love to see you prove that last point.And to clear up any confusion - I am not arguing in favour of vaccine mandates. Just that murdering (or pepperspraying) random clerks doesn't actually hurt the people who made the vaccine mandatory.

@jb55 Reminds me of the time CIs around the world ground to a halt as docker hub started imposing limits on how many images you can pull in a certain amount of time.

@FreePietje Re: "running your own server", I take it you've probably seen https://dessalines.github.io/essays/why_not_signal.html but if not, worth a read. As for his criticism of web 3.0, it's rather ironic that he runs his own cryptocurrency based on "proof of sgx" (also, lol https://nitter.eu/matthew_d_green/status/1270406251063762944).

Let's crowdsource some twitter to fedi exodus best practices.Some ideas:* Link your mastodon (or other fediverse) account(s) in your twitter bio.* Post here first, twitter second.* Prioritize engaging here.

@FreePietje > That 'essay' is so full of shit, it's not even funny.I'd be interested in any sources debunking it, if you happen to know of any.> [Positive sides of Moxie]All true, but that doesn't make him free of criticism. Especially how he *threatened to sue* projects that removed proprietary google libraries from Signal, as well as his continuing ableist "joke" on https://signal.org/android/apk/ rub me really the wrong way.

@FreePietje > (attack the content, not the person).No, it's perfectly fine to point out criticism to a person, even if you agree with what they are saying in context. For example, Vitalik Buterin regularly bashes random shitcoins, but that doesn't mean Ethereum is good. Both him and Moxie are hypocrites, and it's fine to point that out *even when the points they make are good*.I could list some more "local" political examples but that might expose more information about me than I'd like ;)
