It's tangentially related through the theme of decentralization

- It's trying to be a very decentralized chat application

- The linked post is on nostr, which decentralized broadcast messaging protocol

- Bitcoin is a decentralized money protocol

- Nostr has the capability to send bitcoin between users via the lightning network via https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/57.md

It takes more effort to use nostr than it does anything relatively more centralized like bluesky or mastodon. So people there are the kind who are dedicated to decentralized technologies & support bitcoin.

Jack is very strongly bitcoin only & anti "crypto". He sees Bitcoin alone as the Internet's missing money protocol. There is zero chance of what you suggest might happen.

Thank you. I wondered if there was something new. Enjoy your Kotlin journey!

I've been using detekt for years. Why is this suddenly the top article on HN?

As someone who built advanced turn by turn routing based on openstreetmap, problems like the u-turn in the article are hard. Giving good turn instructions for the last 2% is also hard, because so often it requires an appreciation of what the turn looks like from the driver's perspective, not just the curves and angles of the vertices.

This is an example of the common fallacy of conflating energy consumption with carbon-intensive energy generation.

As someone in his position 20+ years ago who did a lot of stretching and yoga for recovery, I can attest that this will only take you so far. Real gains come when you lift weights, which I started at the age of 49. The deadlift is a particularly good remedy for lumbar pain. Start on low weights with good form. Programmers develop weak lumbar support and stretching weak muscles can bring short term relief, but will not resolve the underlying issue. In time, stretching no longer becomes effective without over-stretching, which brings its own problems. Building that muscular support is key.

The early narrative around paying for coffee didn't pan out. But right now it is it's an extremely valuable global settlement system.

The Bitcoin whitepaper brought together a few existing technologies into something that had never before existed in the world - decentralised digital scarcity. This lead to a Cambrian explosion of new developments, most of which are pyramid schemes. But at its core, the invention is world-changing.

I was convinced this article was about the experience of being in your 40s, until I got to the end.

I guess Microsoft's attempt to use their superior marketshare to kill web standards back in the 90s is too long ago for the irony of this to resonate.

Now you mention it, yes. I've been seeing this for a few weeks. It seems often the most salient word in my search phrase is ignored.

Not Jennifer Anniston's character. The original girlfriend whom he went to the hypnotist with. She was cheating on him.

There's a great between-the-lines take in this movie. Bill Lumbergh is dating Peter's girlfriend on the Saturday. That's why he forces him into work ... and why the girlfriend also leaves a message.

That whole GOPATH thing is the reason I could never stick with Go. I'm curious to learn how it's less invasive now. Thanks for the heads up.

I remember names until that person is in front of me. Once they've gone away, I remember it again. It happens all the time. I guess there's a name for this?
