Gave a look to this 🧵, it is a festival of ignorance: a bunch of complaining of features these people don’t know how to use, speculating C++ is made by academics, which is so not true… But, if you know how to use those features, you can achieve what nothing but C++ can achieve

The more I use modern C++ features the more I wonder if the people designing that stuff actually ever did some real programming. Instead of keeping things simple and straight forward everything feels like badly designed joke.



A new zoo exhibit for #CPPCon under construction: "A Success Story in Implementing Understandable World Class Hash Tables" In collaboration with Scott Bruce (@enkiwa): fear not, our presentation is not C++ Dadaism as his tweets 😉 but quite solid material.


A T-Shirt I want to make (very C++ centric): I do type-punning! Sue me if you don't like it. I don't care, my language lawyers are better than yours in the court of REALITY


We had a great time, however, great friends like @phil_nash were badly missed in person, hopefully little by little we will Catch2-up the next opportunities

Nice ending for a great conference ☺️ @CppCon

Again, the more I learn about Ethereum, the more skeptical. twitter.com/thecppzoo/stat…

Wait. So all this MEV nonsense is because DeFi folks can't figure out commit/reveal and built stupid broken systems that are easily front-run?!?! Yes. The answer is yes. We told you years ago.



The more I study Ethereum, the more skeptical about it I become. It takes a lot of effort, studies, to penetrate the barrier of obfuscation in Ethereum to prove conclusively things are broken. Instead, #Bitcoin is simple, of elemental principles with profound consequences

Holy fuck is Ethereum broken. EVERY design decisions they've taken for ETH2 carries absolutely irresolvable centralizing forces. Think staking is bad enough already? The underbelly of MEV is absolutely monstrous.



Buying #Bitcoin with @ln_strike for around 0.30% (less than one percent) in fees opened the wait list! Help me get up the queue: bitcoin.strike.me/?kid=1KKCC0


Misinformation by @BradSherman: "between 2017 and 2020 more than $19 million dollars between #Bitcoin and #Ethereum were successfully double-spent, effectively counterfeiting those supposedly tamper-free currencies" youtu.be/WG3N_QcHEcs?t=… Prove it, show the transactions!


I might turn out to be a Padmé, but, as long as Salvadorans can use any #LightningNetwork wallet, I will support requiring accepting #Bitcoin, otherwise the beneficiaries of fiat exclusion will sabotage this option by simply refusing. Open networks promote freedom, require them!

Paradox: the monetary emission of fiat currencies is the highest it's ever been, yet, #Bitcoin is having the slowest monetary emission, equivalent to another halving, because of the hash rate drop and slower block mining. Slower block rate makes little difference, all is good


Madam @CaitlinLong_ is a treasure. Study these two articles: blockworks.co/avanti-group-c… forbes.com/sites/caitlinl… Her attempts to "square the circle", Wall Street doing #Bitcoin, surface plenty of reasons why conventional finance is profoundly dysfunctional, and real solutions

I prefer #Bitcoin bear markets because the most scarce and important asset on earth is transferred from weak hands interested in short term speculation to strong hands that understand what they're acquiring and have extreme conviction.
