Spoke with 6 different people yesterday at #BANB2021 that all said they had never even really considered the govt wasn't "here to help"; and then 2020 happened.

Now they're at a #bitcoin and #3dGuns conference taking two things--notes and action.

Keep using the tools!!!

"if only we could get the scoundrels out and get the right, good people into government, the world will be better off" is the equivalent of "if we only hire smart people, don't use strcpy, and are really careful then we will be able to write programs in c without memory corruption bugs and exploits!"

nice dream but how many times over how many decades must you bloody your head on that wall before you learn?

@pete this is getting so disgusting i cant get myself to press the 'like' buttons anymore

"Our approach is absolutely not to engage in a gigantic experimentation on the French population"

...which is why you're vaccinating the whole population with brand new vaccines that haven't gone through normal approvals? And are now proposing to mix-and-match those vaccines in ways that haven't been tested?

Sorry, there's no getting around it: this is a gigantic experiment.

"Unfortunately, you can never solve people or process problems with new technology, you can just make them more convoluted..."

(Name redacted to protect the innocent):

A great example of why Bitcoin should be treated as a protocol and not an application: network operators "yell" at other netops all. the. time.

(And for similar reasons - like the UTXO set, the global route table is a shared resource)

It seems we're gonna have to do it ourselves once again. Interesting that with the recent crypto foundation or whatever (I already forgot the name) it already feels like we're going through 2017 again
