@Crabel I'm not a fan of taleb the tweeter. In the past when i would check out his tweets, occasionally I'd find something interesting or funny, but most of the time i had no interest or no idea what he was talking about. I'm a fan of his books, tho.

I think ppl in the spotlight get addicted to the attention and don't know when to fuck off, nnt suffers from that as much as anyone else.

I really love this article by @allenf :

Interested in building on Lightning? ⚡

We just put up new dev docs for LND and have more videos and tutorials coming soon! #bitcoin

Bitcoiners are often insulted because "they're not working"
But many just work smartly & refuse the modern dictatorship to work for work's sake
They're using the rest of their time in a way that Classics would call "σχολή" in Greek & "Otium" in Latin

They were all noble activities like learning philosophy & sciences, physical activities, discussions & disputations

We can stretch the point further:
Socials could be the modern version of the agora. Where they discussed publicly important matters
