I know rationally that terrain theory is the answer here, but have you experienced TRT or just "doing roids?" it's difficult to describe the psychological and social effects. if you can experience the effects, it makes it more apparent why low levels are less optimal than high levels and what that really means.

this is the only way you can scale lightning to large numbers of people. the only way to "fix" lightning right now is by making it centralized and adding trust assumptions. you can bitch all you want about spark but you should redirect your frustration to the lack of building blocks available on L1. premature ossification will just lead to things like spark. it is time to think about doing better. covenant opcodes are most likely the next building blocks to get added. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Covenants_support

lightning only works at scale when it's centralized. this has been explained by many people many times. it's your responsibility to figure out how your own wallet works before calling other people malicious and stupid.

this is all happening because luke lives in the middle of nowhere with a shitty ISP and has so many children he cannot even afford to visit a dentist, and he got all his bitcoin stolen. there's nothing rational about transaction fees being more expensive than node hardware. not to mention running a node with perpetually full 4 mb blocks is still an extremely small fraction of the average miner's expenses. it's a fucking rounding error

I still don't know what objectivism really means but I read atlas shrugged. I liked the part where they are torturing the guy and the torture machine breaks, and they are so retarded that he takes pity on them and tells them how to fix the torture machine. what pisses me off the most is when people criticize the book, you can clearly tell they didn't read it. if they did, they would have mentioned a lot of different things where she fell short or did something dumb. I was fucking livid that she could only be bothered to credit aristotle, and not max stirner.
