@eaglebuildz @dreamsofcode_io Would you prefer to build on top of slopfest rust nobody has even read vs NASA grade grass fed tiggerbeetle zig code?

@eaglebuildz @dreamsofcode_io Cold take: there’s no reason bun needs to move too fast. It’s a platform. Fast moving things should be *on top* of it. Case in point bad engineering led them to crash all the time with zig. They could’ve slowed down and fixed the zig code base

The code is so bad though. Like the worst Rust code I’ve ever seen. Honestly it’s so bad I’m thinking of fully hand writing code again.

@ShitpostRock2 I’m rooting for Birkett whoever that is

''Bro just go read some books'' Meanwhile the newest James Bond book:

@boomer_btc @patchw1se @NEEDcreations @BTC_JEDI21 @grok Yes but I imagine it would reach equilibrium. I think there will always be some inertia in capital+hardware allocation even in a Star Trek economy, specially if we’re still mining with asic-like compute ( highly specific, nothing useful to hop to and back )

My basic assumption is that Bitcoin is that the base settlement layer for the global economy. If not, Bitcoin probably doesn't exist, or at least isn't relevant. If so, then block space control will be massively important, even at the nation-state level. This would cause an ever increasing motivation for large organizations to rapidly scale hash rate and they would do so even in short windows to control blocks and insure that their preferred transactions could be confirmed in reasonable time windows.

Hey @grok, what happens to Bitcoin if energy becomes completely free? Explain in detail please.

@boomer_btc @patchw1se @NEEDcreations @BTC_JEDI21 @grok I mean I’m not saying the thesis is invalid I just don’t see the casual connection, can you elaborate?

@boomer_btc @patchw1se @NEEDcreations @BTC_JEDI21 @grok Why would there be catastrophic exponential increase/decrease in hash power within difficulty adjustment period in such a civilization? You’re smuggling in some assumptions about how quickly economically deployable hash power can change and how centralized it is.

@adam3us But at that point, why not just write the code and make it a single server? There's no point

@adam3us I hope people that push to build Defi on top of bitcoin realize it's not a good thing. I think the only real use case of defi is as purposefully centralize distribution platform for tradfi asset claims enforceable by law ( like no-kyc sovereign/corporate bonds )

told you so👎bitcoiners so tired of being right. re DeFi (aka dinoFi) high recursive leverage, contagion and EVM "rich stateful" nonsense/bridge unsecurability. x.com/adam3us/status…

@neogoose_btw How about datomic

I never liked databases as an idea. You literally send a string query over TCP to postgres and it returns you data over tcp as strings. There is so much potential to make this whole thing better …. but everyone seems to be just fine with it.

@levelsio We have been living in a era where our margins are through the roof, *that* might be changing. Is it worth spending 15% less by paying for tokens directly, instead of paying a local ai-specialist shop for your business domain, that does the job and is accountable to it?

@levelsio AI has no accountability to it's output though, as long as it's not too expensive most business owners would rather pay someone to solve a problem. Most people do not think like programmers, I really don't believe LLMs will change that dynamic but I could be wrong

Sure but realistically websites are probably a thing of the past in a few years Everyone will just use whatever interactive calculator their AI chat app spins up for them, or it will just answer whatever calculation question they have They won't need a website for it

Is community notes not working anymore? Over the past few weeks I’ve seen too many fabricated posts and absolutely no community notes on them

@VictorTaelin Suppose we have agi next Tuesday. When does software dev die off? We have local businesses seemingly unable to build functional websites in 2026, a totally solved problem for decades

I think Flowers is right and I don't see any point in building anything at all if we're having AGI soon. I regret spending so much time working, when I could be just living. I'm glad Bend2 is nearing its conclusion but I definitely won't work 15 hours a day after launch anymore

@cruzezoeira @JeaneBadin @SenadoFederal E usam "sistêmico" de forma incorreta. Há alguma lei brasileira que explicitamente beneficia homens em detrimento de mulheres? Há somente contra-exemplos então não é sistêmico Racismo "sistêmico" fazia sentido nos EUA pré-1964 e esse termo foi importado pra toda critica social

@JeaneBadin @SenadoFederal Ser sistêmico ou não não importa na identificação de um crime. Ou ambos são ou nenhum é. Esse tipo de assimetria só faz gerar o resultado inverso, fomentando luta de classes (branco vs negros, homens vs mulheres, etc). Os autores dessa bobagem sabem e desejam isso.

Plenário aprovou projeto que criminaliza a misoginia — definida na proposta como “conduta que manifeste ódio ou aversão às mulheres, baseada na crença da supremacia do gênero masculino” — e insere o delito entre os crimes de preconceito contidos na Lei do Racismo www12.senado.leg.br/noticias/mater…

We shipped a lil something today: USDT Swaps ⚡💵 Lightning ↔ USDT. No custody. No accounts. No KYC. Move from sats to stablecoins in seconds, across a growing number of networks. 👉 beta.boltz.exchange 👈 Read the full announcement: blog.boltz.exchange/p/introducing-…

@hodlonaut @adam3us @Pledditor In the face of evidence and while addressing some of the most authority-skeptic and cynical demographics on the planet, core is making dismissive and emotional arguments that would fit The View. Is this some humiliation ritual? Are they that high on their own supply?

@adam3us @Pledditor You are going to debunk GitHub comments and irc logs? 🤡

Wouldn't it be nice if "Today's News" was actually news, and not just a repackaged version of your "For You" feed.

@SGBarbour A reminder that around Brenton woods the US held over half the global gold reserves and the gold did just fine.

Thought experiment. If Strategy bought all of the bitcoin in existence, what would the total network value be? Zero. Networks are valued based on their *distribution*. Strategy accumulating bitcoin is neutral at best, but likely bearish. :)

@hodlonaut Most people won’t appreciate this work, and that’s totally fine.

Human nature insures there will never be a time when Bitcoin does not need to be defended and fought for. Complacency is an attack vector. Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.

@hodlonaut @AdamSimecka Tangential: do you plan on publishing the research results in another medium also at some point? This is great work but lengthy twitter threads don't have good UX. Maybe a long form video, podcast or something...

@AdamSimecka How can something that is backed by the public record and where everything is sourced with URLs and screenshots be ridiculous and baseless?

1/ There's a narrative circulating that Citrea had nothing to do with the OP_RETURN uncap. That Citrea didn't need it. Didn't ask for it. Was just caught in some drama it didn't start. This thread explores what the people who pushed the change actually said. 🧵

@igorhansachat @ShawnMcCool You can do that in minutes / hours with Phoenix just like with php frameworks.

@ShawnMcCool Good choice, we will ship 5 apps with PHP while you are still adding login + 2FA to your app

Especially in an era of agentic coding.. it no longer makes any sense to me to continue using languages like PHP which offer zero novel value. I don't stand to gain anything from saying this, but now is the time to start with Elixir. Have faith and rip off that band-aid.
