Abbot vs Waltons fight fight fight!

Here is BIP360, the leading proposal for switching the bitcoin network over to quantum-resistant code, authored primarily by Hunter Beast.

Here’s his interview on the matter at Concensus 2025 this past May
Here’s his interview with Shinobi of Bitcoin Mag on the matter, also from May

He notes that the US DoD wants all of their systems to be quantum-resistant by 2030, and 2035 to be the latest possible date that having any pre-quantum systems will be considered acceptable. To paraphrase his thinking on the matter: We know that the DoD is pouring lots of money into quantum research, and if they’ve already identified solid deadlines in the not-too-far-future then it’s probably worth assuming that they know something about the technology’s timeline that we don’t.

Interesting, I’m autistic and what frustrates me here is that the question specifically asks you to posit “How is it possible” and the teacher insists that you’re supposed to just say that it’s not. Makes me want to just Calvinball the whole damn exam. 5 + 7, what is the answer? Purple. Obviously.

How is that possible?

“False”

🤷‍♂️

The question literally says “Marty ate more pizza”. It’s a foundational fact that you’re given as a part of the problem. If refuting the basic facts of the question are on the table and the answer was the say “Actually, no he didn’t” then you might as well say something like “No, he actually at 1/6 of his pizza” and claim all the numbers given are dishonest.

1995? We were still using these in like 2008.

I’m a middle-aged cyclist (though I got into it around 20) who eschews lycra. I hate the look, the fit, and the feel. I bike in vans slip-ons, running shorts, and t-shirts. At most I’ll wear chamois under the shorts. No clips for me either, flats with the peg screws forever. 90% road cyclist btw, very little mountain biking. Oh and no fitness tracker / GPS as of a few years ago. I just need as little friction as possible between being not on the bike and being on the bike. For me it translates to more fun and many more miles. These days some would call my style “xbiking”.

OK yeah that sucks. I’ve run into hex grubs screws before, but on brake levers which I’m pretty sure have to meet compliance stuff like ISO safety standards so the hardware was higher quality.

JIS is definitely a step up from Phillips, as long as you have the right bits and can tell them apart. I run into JIS a lot in bicycle maintenance. But neither of them hold a candle to metric hex. It’s really hard to strip a hex bit until you’re being a total idiot.

You can run plexserver as a service outside of docker. That’s how I ran it years ago, before I got comfortable with docker.

Probably Brooklyn Bowl. It’s a combo bowling alley / mid-sized music venue in Brooklyn NY that opened a second location in Vegas a while back, because Brooklyn-branded things are apparently a big attraction for foreign tourists in the US.

Vans Slip-On Pros are basically the sharks of the shoe world: They hit optimal design a very long time ago, have barely changed since, and continue to remain one of the most effective species out there. They don’t seem to make as many color variant runs as they used to though, I used to have the Lizzie Amano editions in lavender / black and they looked awesome, I ran them ragged as cycling shoes.

The droopy crotch on most joggers is really annoying for me. I like a more loose fit around the thighs but not MC Hammer levels of loose.

This. I prefer a more slim fit, but I’ve got some cake to fit. Too many mens jeans are cut for guys with Hank Hill butts.

Sanders isn’t a Democrat, and I agree with his recent message that young left-minded people going into politics should follow his lead and stay independent.

It’s only a big deal because of what a corrupt disaster it’s development was. It’s still a plane made of physical material that you can blow up. The fact that someone can shoot at it is no more surprising than the concept of object permanence. If this fact surprises anyone, it’s only because they’ve been dazzled by the exorbitant waste.

I don’t see what’s so complicated. You’re a guy with a missile launcher. You look up, and see an F-35. You shoot a missile at it.

You’ve fired a gun, yes? They’ve got a lot of kick.

There’s a high chance this wasn’t his choice at all. Due to depleted forces men on both sides of the conflict are getting press ganged into the military, and at least on the Russian side there’s a lot of info out there of unit leaders taking bribes to place recruits into safer positions. Don’t have enough cash, you go straight to the front lines.
