@LukeKerrDineen Very interesting. Honestly not the reason I had expected!
English

@BitcoinCoderBob Not my hypothesis, a coach was explaining it to me and was at Titleist a few weeks ago where they went deeper on the alignment benefits of longer lines
English

@LukeKerrDineen Is this your hypothesis or does this come from tour players/coaches relaying this reason?

Reverse engineering APIs through network requests is one of the most fun things you can do with Claude Code to automate tasks..
SO many websites are impossible to navigate "deterministically" via the DOM (or through screenshots).
So, I just point Claude Code to use browser_harness by @browser_use (or vanilla playwright) and ask it to sniff network requests on the pages that I'm trying to get info on.
And, I just keep clicking around on the sections of data that I want. And, then Claude Code is generally able to go through the logs to figure out what is the right structure for these APIs and what kind of auth do they need (most are cookie based). We also determine what kind of rate limits exist based on trial and error.
I'm able to use that to construct jobs that allow me to get that data programmatically. There are many use cases for this besides scraping. I use this for random side projects (like the travel CLI), for monitoring websites (for intel), and for many many other use cases.
Every website will soon need to be headless, and we'll need to figure out mechanisms for how we have our agents pay these websites programmatically as well.
Just as we have llms.txt for data and structure, we'll soon need tools.txt for agents to determine what tools exist that can be leveraged.

@matbalez @michaelbship the somewhat equivalent to having a whole unit symbol ($) vs smallest unit symbol (¢)
English


i'm spreading new love for use of the ₿ symbol:
bsymbol.org
what's inside?
- the case for expressing bitcoin with ₿
- teach your agent the skill
- edit a screenshot
- keyboard shortcuts for typing
- list of wallets that have adopted
- many instances of ₿

@michaelbship @matbalez thanks for letting us in on your 2₿ (sats) see thats already confusing to me
English

@BitcoinCoderBob @matbalez Well thanks for the interesting convo guys. Going to go eat lunch and enjoy the park!
English

@michaelbship @matbalez im open to a symbol being use din place of sats, just cant be ₿
English

@BitcoinCoderBob @matbalez Because "sats" is too long. I know you've said you don't think so but many, and myself, do. And that psychology matters
English

@michaelbship @matbalez no devs show all unit places? i think NOT showing all places is nightmare.
0.0448672
vs
0.04486720
if i can count on there being 8 places i can more easily grok what im looking at
English

@BitcoinCoderBob @matbalez Yea but devs are lazy. No wallet does this and it is absolutely a nightmare for the human brain
English

@michaelbship @matbalez i dont hate it, it is not sexy, sats is fine in place of it. if decimals are used then show them all the way out to all 8 places, dont cut it off like 0.003
English

@BitcoinCoderBob @matbalez The thing that HAS to happen is people stop using fucking decimals in wallets. That shit is dead
English

@michaelbship @matbalez strong argument. i make the case that that symbol should not be ₿.
English

@BitcoinCoderBob @matbalez If we are going to have a smallest unit, full stop, it needs a symbol
English

@michaelbship @matbalez i dont think it is weird to say or cumbersome to type but perhaps i am biased. im not sold on kebab, probably more cumbersome to get unicode for it than to remain with sat (typed out) usage
English

@BitcoinCoderBob @matbalez But I'm in the camp of sats is weird to say and too long to type and we don't have a unicode symbol.
Even if we decide on sat symbol kebab, no true unicode for it.
English

@michaelbship @matbalez I reckon the ticker argument will be to keep it as is. For example stocks trade under the recognized ticker, not fiat currency units. XAU/USD chart for example. We would keep BTC/USD
English

@BitcoinCoderBob @matbalez I think the ticker point is the least thought through part.
I do in theory like the B symbol being the base denomination if the rest of it could make sense
English

@michaelbship @matbalez and I think we already have it. BTC means $76k and sats means smallest unit
English

@BitcoinCoderBob @matbalez There is probably a refined version that checks all the boxes
English

@michaelbship @matbalez I think it was thought through, and of course proposed in good faith, I just disagree that it is superior than existing solutions proposed (and often implemented)
English

@BitcoinCoderBob @matbalez Yea I agree. I don't feel the proposal was 100% thought through
