A product lead at Coinbase commerce was trying to justify their shitcoinery... Here's my reply: There's a thing called Lightning network. Instant settlement, no utxo trouble, it just works.

It's more useful to look at it through the lens of Pareto distribution rather than averages. From the chapter of my book, published also here: Let's look inside the Pareto distribution, towards the median. If we are among the poorest 80% and within that we are Juraj Feb 17, 2024, 11:34 AM
Yes. Europe is living Atlas Shrugged live. It's mostly part of the declining world, although there are ascending spots here and there. While I agree, there are a few things to note as well: Western Europe has insane amounts of accumulated capital. It can take decades until people Juraj Feb 17, 2024, 10:58 AM

You know that no matter what happens, the government will provide your health care. Of course, this certainty is merely rhetorical. Can you be certain that the government will cover… Juraj Feb 16, 2024, 7:40 AM

This is very cool. Fast image generation is nice, but imagine you can send 24x24x2 bytes = 1152 bytes and you can share a photo. Applications: super low bandwidth projects such as radio transmission.
