Never said you need to store the whole history at all times, i said it must be established in canonical way. Storing latest state is just fine. Event Sourcing works this way too, a…

You can't do any real money/real estate transactions without canonical order (chain of events). that's why git analogy is not applicable here. You'd need "main" branch to be canoni…

When working on a project https://github.com/xlnfinance/xln (a financial account network between entities) I stumbled upon a problem that you need a way to emulate a real network d…

why not both? JS is a pragmatic choice 100x more devs understand though.

I vibecoded a local whisper replacement (free version of superwhisper/mac whisper basically) with claude and hammerspoon: https://github.com/xlnfinance/xln/blob/main/ai/install-voi…

i wasted an hour setting up a key. Antigravity rejected me even though my VPN was set to New York. Nowhere close to claude/codex experience. Unusable dev experience

No such thing as "crypto". You're intermixing form (BTC Jurisdiction state machine) with particular instance (BTC token, USDC token, whatever fungible or not)

Working on: https://github.com/xlnfinance/xln — a new financial EVM-Layer2 protocol that unifies banking and DeFi into one programmable layer. Think Lightning, but on EVM, with cre…

You ratioed sonnet 4.5 announcement by 600 points. Wow. is there any similar game or is it first 3d in-browser game with amazing graphics?

Is it a blockchain though? Or anything that remotely resembles block creation in some concentrated datacenters with Tempo's "design partners" gets to be called that. Something clai…

I wasn’t criticizing the guide — just pointing out real OAuth2 pitfalls that still affect users. The spec itself made mistakes: • Silent account hijack via “Connect this provider.”…

(on an unrelated note): I tried to move to Berlin for summer but quickly discovered almost no apartments have AC, I mean strong South Asia-level AC. It was a major no for me as I c…
