Ya I think that’s reasonable, you are working on both legs when you do a pistol squat. Might be good to stretch more though, if you are just getting into lifting/body weight exercises, I would stretch daily/before/after working out. Stretching is one of those things that doesn’t get enough credit until you do it and see the effects, especially as you get older.
I also think it’s probably a good idea to try out the new career path. Doing software dev as a job, and doing it as a hobby because you like to, are very different when it comes to motivations and goals. Don’t think of it as walking away and just being a lowly hobby dev though, you can build your skills and work on what you want to as a hobby, for the problems you are trying to solve and things you like to work on, and that’s totally ok.
Not everyone wants to put in the effort to play guitar for a living, but you can definitely still enjoy guitar.
I will quote the devs directly: “This Verifier is not “a man in the middle”. Instead, the Verifier participates in a secure multi-party computation (MPC) to jointly operate the TLS connection without seeing the data in plain text.”
Its a bit more complicated than that. There is a fair bit of cryptography that happens where you basically cooperate with another party to communicate with the server in a way where you cant cheat.
FYI its in rust, and its very much in alpha, but if you like diving in and are comfortable with rust, come play 😁
If you like vue, try svelte(kit). Not that it’s better, but another tool in your toolbox. Svelte stores are pretty nice.
Right, there is a potential path here that could be awesome, non transferable tokens that represent voting rights/karma, and points you can sell that could later be use as “gold” used to be used. But I don’t think that’s what they are doing
Ya exactly, which… I’m curious how they will transition moons and that whole community. There’s a lot of people heavily invested in moons.
They have been working on it and experimenting with it in /r/cryptocurrency for a few years now.
They have been experimenting with this on /r/cryptocurrency for a long time. I was a moderator in that ecosystem and am good friends with some of the mods there. I’ve always been weary of moons, but I didn’t think they would actually bring it to the whole platform.
This is definitely a paradigm shift that’ll be an interesting dumpster fire to watch.
I work on Ethereum related things full time (and love the core parts of it), but I also, like you, think most crypto stuff is a slimy scam. Stuff like this is exactly why. It’s a way for reddit to encourage bots to farm karma for real/fake money on garbage repost content.
I know crypto/blockchain in general is mostly hated in this community, and stuff like this absolutely does not help.
https://www.literatureandlatte.com/scrivener/overview it’s proprietary, but it has a lot of features geared towards writing novels/screenplays/etc
In some ways yes, but current solutions arent always the best solutions. They aren’t always the most secure, or the fastest, or the most private, or the most trustworthy. With almost all main stream solutions, you have to trust some company, and then they have their fees, and sell your personal information to data brokers, and they try to get you in debt, etc. It’s not a solution looking for a problem, it’s a solution that isnt nearly as easy to use as current systems (yet), but all the hype has let scammers ride the wave.
Crypto is far from perfect, we have plenty of work to do, but don’t discount it entirely. There is a lot of smart people with good intentions working on the core technologies, that want to see a better world, me included. Definitely continue to be skeptical, but don’t write it off.
I believe it’s the future and I 100% understand how it works. There are a ton of bad ideas, scams, and money grabs… But at the core the fundamental technologies have a lot of potential.
Edit: to those that downvote, I’m willing to be civil and discuss if you want. If you want to down vote and move on that’s cool too, I definitely get the skepticism.
We all want a free and better Internet, that’s why we are on lemmy. The core principals of bitcoin, Ethereum, monero (and a few others) are that. I don’t want scams, or a bunch of “digital collectible”/nft cash grabs either.
Feeling this lately. Also “well it works on my machine”.
Honestly I like typescript, actually writing the language, but as soon as it comes to build time it becomes a hot mess. Trying to transpile to node and browser, I might as well use fucking cmake.
Crypto would actually be a good idea, if we did it on a smart contract platform we could have part of the money go to the user and part go to the platform, but the platform wouldn’t be in control of how that worked, it would be up to the user to decide what % the platform got.
If this has any serious interest I will shepherd this.
This is how gold started on reddit back in the day and devolved into this.
Why nostr?
Lol I used like to promote lemmy
Well I just spent the rest of my coins (7k) on promoting lemmy in that thread lol. I was done with reddit before, but now I know reddit is really done.
Gold was introduced as a way to help sustain server costs, then it was a money grab.
I love and hate this
