I always assumed that Lego and Ikea had some sort of strange connection. They're both Danish, they both like DIY assembly, and they both make instructions without words.
But let me tell you, Lego instructions are way better than Ikea instructions.
IKEA is from Sweden!
All those Nordics are the same.
~lol Go tell them that!
Wait, so the price of posts isn't going up anymore? @k00b

I have 3 thermoses of coffee today, ultra-loaded!
I really have trouble understanding when people talk about business yet without actionable steps and are full of empty words. 😥
that’s a good instinct to lean into, I think
I don't really understand their logic, maybe they got lots of money to burn...but well, doesn't everything start from small?

At this point I want to build an offline-first version of GitHub:
https://www.githubstatus.com/
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48034587
It's called
git. It's awesome.git-format-patchis your friend. Compliments of Linus.With "offline-first version of GitHub", I meant that I can create GitHub review comments offline, so the review is ready to be submitted when GitHub is back online.
But
git-format-patchmight still be useful, thanks! I am currently manually keeping track of what I want to comment on which lines in a text file:R18-19: nit: I found "base weight" confusing. bolt03 doesn't mention "base weight", only "base fee", which [doesn't seem to be related to "without HTLCs" but "trimmed HTLCs"](https://github.com/lightning/bolts/blob/444805d12ab98c30006173bb190cd9d6fce9e405/03-transactions.md?plain=1#L517-L524). I think with "base" you mean "without HTLCs"? So I suggest this change: ```diff -/// Base weight of a non-anchor commitment transaction without HTLCs. -const COMMITMENT_WEIGHT_NON_ANCHOR: u64 = 724; +/// Weight of a non-anchor commitment transaction without HTLCs. +const BASE_COMMITMENT_WEIGHT_NON_ANCHOR: u64 = 724; -/// Base weight of an anchor commitment transaction without HTLCs. -const COMMITMENT_WEIGHT_ANCHOR: u64 = 1124; +/// Weight of an anchor commitment transaction without HTLCs. +const BASE_COMMITMENT_WEIGHT_ANCHOR: u64 = 1124; ``` --- R24-26: * could use `OPTION_ANCHORS_BITS` like in #56echo "To: ${RECIPIENT}" > mail_header.txt echo "From: ek <ek@ek.name>" >> mail_header.txt echo "Subject: review" >> mail_header.txt echo "" >> mail_header.txt cat mail_header.txt my_finding.txt | sendmail -tThis one also with compliments of Linus ❤️
I'm not sure if you're not understanding my problem, or if you're telling me I shouldn't use GitHub.
Not telling you what you should or shouldn't do, just pointing out that depending on a centralized piece of Microsoft software is maybe not necessary in an age where you could use anything you want for communications. Which is rather funny because we used to say the same in the 90s.
Maybe this time we will evolve tho
To start with, your suggested solution should include the entire world in CC
Mailing list?
PS: kind of dramatically self-important to seek the whole world as audience. Did you cure death?
I haven't had to do a bank - to - bank transfer in a minute, and it still takes 2-3 days?! The fact that banks cannot do better than this is insane.
A year ago I had to do one internationally through a correspondent bank and it took a week. It was not fun.
I reached home at 6pm, fatigued and yearning for a rest. Instead, I switched on my laptop to make the necessary changes to my Young Entomologist SLS lesson aimed at Primary 1 students. Assigned it to all P1 classes before 6.30pm and got the son to attempt the lesson. Not only had he finished the lesson by the time I came home, but he also had feedback about the video embedded in the package.
“While it’s cute that the ant has a human face,” he opined, “the speaker left out words like ‘hurry’”.
I savoured the sense of accomplishment. It was worth the blood, sweat and tears designing the lesson because the son benefitted from it.

Coin of the Day:
Do people know, when you are "crossing" a border, why are you asked: "are you here for business or pleasure" ?
I guess for visa-related stuff
the world is a parasite utopia, constructed for the pleasure business of flesh & brain parasites; the border officials have no clue, they are playing along with the utopia guidelines; the parasite survival-pleasure business is grander than one can imagine;
coinos mostly solves this and makes LN useful and convenient for the masses.
Elitist technocrats will complain coinos is not custodial but the elitists rarely if ever actually use LN/sats and thus cripple the growth and development of the LN through their stubborn elitist puritanism.
They probably work for the NSA seeking to prevent the growth actual use of of the protocol.
