I wanted to read the ancient authors in their own words, but no tool I found combined translations, grammar, and definitions in one place. So I built Lyceum — a modern reader for Ancient Greek with 373 authors and 1,837 works. Click any word for instant dictionary lookups (LSJ, Perseus, Logeion). Toggle color-coded grammar. Read with interlinear translations that show what each Greek word means in context. Built-in spaced repetition lets you memorize vocabulary as you read. lyceum.quest Discord: discord.gg/mnvAS6WUzz Full writeup: blu.cx/posts/articles…

@Wikipedia is systematically changing the birthplaces of Baltic nationals born between 1945 and 1991 to “Soviet Union.” I corrected my own birthplace to Estonia. Within two minutes, an editor changed it back to “Estonian SSR, Soviet Union” Let me be clear: I was born in Estonia — temporarily occupied by the Soviet Union. That is what I was told by my parents and what I have known all my life. If Wikipedia wishes to write “Soviet-occupied Estonia,” that would at least reflect historical reality. But reducing my birthplace to “Estonian SSR” erases the fact of occupation, Estonia's identity and the legal continuity of the Republic of Estonia. I have spent much of my life working to restore and safeguard Estonia’s independence. Having non-Baltic editors insist on rewriting my birthplace as “Estonian SSR” feels like a symbolic continuation of that occupation. People born in Nazi-occupied Denmark were still born in Denmark. People born today in Russian-occupied parts of Ukraine are still born in Ukraine. Does Wikipedia list “Reichskommissariat Ostland, Generalbezirk Estland” as the birthplace of people born in Estonia between 1941 and 1944? Estonian SSR was a construct created by the Russian occupiers never recognised by anyone and is used today as a meme of Russian imperialist hallucinations.

Finally. A child with some class and sophistication.

Nothing new for 🟠.

We've documented $2B+ in exploits in 2025 alone. Now we're doing something about it . Why we're hosting the Rekt Security Summit. x.com/RektHQ/status/…

New project! Are the e-shops you are trying to pay suddenly trying to KYC you for buying alpaca socks with Bitcoin? Yes, that's the new regulation. They should of course go self-custodial, run @BtcpayServer and none of this applies (it only applies to to payment gateways who are providing gateway services for third parties). But running BtcpayServer is not always easy, especially if you are just starting to accept Bitcoin. VPS, docker, running your nodes (although it's possible without). And maybe you don't have people who would run it for you. But since we have @CashuBTC now, we can do something magical - use Cashu mints' lightning capability to accept Bitcoin, anonymously. And run the payment gateway the same way we run the e-shop - on a $3/month PHP hosting. Enter CashuPayServer - a simplified Lightning gateway, compatible with BTCPayServer Greenfield API (so yes, your WooCommerce, etc. is supported out of the box), by basically unpacking a .zip in your webhost and going through a simple wizard. And if you run Wordpress, it's even easier, because CashuPayServer installs as a plug-in (and if you have BTCPay plug-in as well, it autoconfigures it for you). You can withdraw your Cashu tokens to a lightning address, BOLT-11 invoice, as cashu tokens. You can enable autowithdrawal. Free and open-source. Self-custody possible, if you run your own mint. Autowithdraw lowers the custody risk. Warning, version 0.1-alpha that is out is very alpha, no one besides me in localhost has tested it. I will present it tomorrow at Cashu dev call. Pull requests welcome. And if you want to see the checkout flow for yourself, go to donate section. Links: cashupayserver.org Repo: github.com/jooray/cashupa… I have also released a few supplemental repos, such as github.com/jooray/cashu-w… Yes, I know many people think that PHP sucks. But it's literally unzip and run on the hosting you already have. For anything more sophisticated, run BTCPayServer, it is much better and battle-tested (I run it myself). I created this as a fun project to help small businesses accept Bitcoin without the complexity of running infrastructure. There are a few things this can do out of the box though (even less tested). Some mints can mint you euro and usd tokens. If you are not ready for Bitcoin volatility, and you want certainty of value evaporation of fiat, it is possible. You get the customers that want to pay with Lightning, but get euros or usd. I don't recommend doing that, but it's an option. Again - ⚠️ #reckless. Not battle-tested. Feedback and pull requests wanted. I will probably not add many more features. For features, go to btcpay.

@EricGrill So you built an en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassina… !

I designed an AI protocol in one afternoon. Then I realized it could be used to hire a hitman. I shut it down and wrote this instead 👇 ericgrill.com/blog/aegis-ai-… #ai #claudecode #badagents

Everyone gets arrested in Turkey. Including women who braid their hair.

Gold needs vaults. Real estate needs maintenance. Stocks need trust in management. Bitcoin needs an internet connection.
