@nic__carter No, Matt isn't longest tenured.
That would be me (unless Satoshi is still around under another name)
Also noteworthy, Matt hasn't contributed to Bitcoin Core in quite some time, and his most recent involvement was in the form of sabotage and harming Bitcoin

To celebrate #Bitcoin Independence Day for @bitcoinmagazine, I spoke with @lukedashjr about SegWit, the origins of this holiday and whether Bitcoin is really more secure today than it was in 2017.

Planning an online group watch of King of Thorn (2009) on August 1/2.

IIRC it was a good movie (it's been a while)

(No series for it to be a summary/spoiler of like last year)
It would improve the security of #Bitcoin nodes if they automatically tracked BCH and other SHA256d PoW systems (not necessarily blockchains).
Then the node could have a true sense of the full global mining hashrate (which could be switched to an attack on Bitcoin at any time, even if not currently mining Bitcoin), and adjust its security predictions appropriately.
The American Revolution was unjustified.
Plus, #IndependenceDay is culturally tied to the cult of liberty.
So on the #4thOfJuly, my family instead celebrates our dependence on God.
Happy Dependence on God Day!
Considering that today's ruling is merely judicial in nature, and no legislation has changed, it is technically correct that abortion has been illegal* for the past 50 years.
So retroactive prosecution is on the table, right?
11 year old made some pound #cake based on #AscendanceOfABookworm ep 11.
It's...different, but okay👍 😂
Slaves in the middle ages used to work ~150 days a year, and were provided with room and board.
Modern employees work ~230 days a year (50% more), and often can't afford room and board without going into debt.
Ugh, sick again, and didn't even fully recover from last time. I think I've probably been sick almost the entire time since relaxing my precautions.
Makes me seriously consider going back to full isolation just to avoid being sick constantly.

#Bitcoin Knots 23.0.knots20220529 released! 🎉
Family planning is negotiating a just wage; buying a car seat; pre-paying the hospital; deciding on your baby's MD; cooking and freezing meals; etc.
It is NOT birth control, murdering "untimely" babies, or "spacing".
That's family avoidance and homicide.
With abortion/murder moved to the State level, the next biggest issue at the federal level is capitalists defrauding their employees with unjust wages...
Republicans don't have a slam dunk on this. Neither do Democrats.
Thoughts?
In case you missed my panels at the 2022 Miami #Bitcoin conference, the videos have been posted.

the days of usenet, irc, the web...even email (w PGP)...were amazing. centralizing discovery and identity into corporations really damaged the internet.
I realize I'm partially to blame, and regret it.
Anyone know any good lodging options in Miami for the #Bitcoin conference? 😅
P.S. Will people who cancel due to this get their deposit back adjusted for inflation? You've sat on our money all this time, it's only right.
I get inflation, but you should really consider honouring the prices you promised people for their first year of service.
We've waited patiently, while you delayed our service over a year extra so you could put hotspots at Tesla superchargers...
@[email protected] emailed "Due to excessive levels of inflation, the price of the Starlink kit is increasing from $499 to $549 for deposit holders, and $599 for all new orders, effective today. In addition, the Starlink monthly service price will increase from $99 to $110."
