LND, and Lightning Labs’ behavior is actively harmful to the development of the Lightning Network. They have refused to implement specifications such as Bolt12 and dual-funded channels. It is also by far the most annoying node implementation I used. Not to mention that all the issues I had (including losing half of my capacity at one point) were with LND peers.

We have at least the illusion of consensus on SegWit, and that a good chunk (not any majority) of economic participants do enforce it (considering they rely on for example witness-embedding TX submissions) I guess this all inevitably reflects in miner actions, through nth-order effects.

The reason a UASF can work is that the general economic weight and public balance can shift significantly against the miners, which cannot tolerate the revenue loss (immediate, and longer-term reputation damage to “Bitcoin” itself) that would arise from even a few weeks of conflict. Usually by solving an important problem and being unresolvable via any other way. BIP-110 was not technically sound, did not manage to convince many economic participants, and had no benefit to a majority of people. It was also rushed, giving little time for a possible UASF to be even reasonably possible. If anything, it was against the interests of many parties, even the “good” ones. (Everyone is also strategizing about what everyone else will do, and so even just the appearance of broad consensus is critical to have a successful UASF)

Bitcoin is not the heaviest valid chain, and there is no “definition” of Bitcoin either. It is a vague term that exists because of a general consensus all sorts of participants, which have weight in different ways (economic, computational, leadership, publicity, etc.) And there is no strict weight to define 50%+1 but many different powers that form a result. A node by itself does not have any weight in this, and only its operator could hold weight by being economically active (buyer/seller/platform), mining, via public participation in discussions, etc.

After post-training, the model’s output distribution collapses a ton. I feel like the recent models though are extremely annoying to use. GPT 3/3.5/4/4o/4.1/4.5 and even 5 was fine.

Secure element RNGs protect billions of credit cards, IDs, passports, computers, and more. Similar RNGs on HSMs protect the entire CA system, DNSSEC, and a lot of cryptocurrency. The Linux, macOS and Windows RNGs protect every website and application on the internet. With secure elements, the only catastrophe that I can easily recall is RoCA. And that was caused by using a insecure prime generation algorithm instead of an RNG failure. This is a uniquely Bitcoin problem. All the good infosec people work for general cryptocurrency companies, or at way more reputable companies. With cutting corners and the incompetence of people at these companies, it is not unexpected that we have scared all the competent people away

Regardless of your stance on spam, BIP-110 “UA”SF was a horrible idea. It will likely fail anyway. The only thing it achieved is confuse people and polarize them further. Congratulations. (My opinion is that we should not encourage it, by blocking it via *relay policy*. People don’t want to build on uncertain ground. But consensus should not be changed.)

The certificate is for the chip. It does not mean whether the chip is used properly by Ledger, Trezor, etc. It only says “the chip CAN BE secure”, but it is very easy to undermine the chip’s security as the developer.

It does not take time to do CVSS scoring, and the CVSS scoring system is known to have issues many issues anyway. 1. Scores are often much lower or higher than they should be. 2. It is possible to easily over- or understate the impact of a vulnerability, intentionally or not. 3. Whether the vulnerability is actively exploitable is another question. After NIST had slowed down enrichment of CVEs, and many other safeguards broke, anyone can now go and issue a CVE for a project without any verification. https://sqlite.org/forum/forumpost/34bdf3b9bd759d4d
