is there actually a point to learning new things right now? taking a gap year because i have no idea what to learn, or if it will even matter by the time i am done. feels like studying for a world that is already gone. dad was a programmer and did startups. i liked coding in school and thought that…

Down and Out in Paris and London is a memoir (sometimes called a semi-autobiographical or “documentary” account) based on Orwell’s real experiences in the late 1920s. He worked as a plongeur (dishwasher) in Paris hotel kitchens and later lived as a tramp in London lodging houses and casual wards.…

Alright, so I tried out this vibecoding thing and I had the fun idea to launch a new blockchain with FCMP++ enabled at genesis, fully merge-mined with XMR - of course with P2Pool-compatibility. Syncing a stressnet node takes a while, so if you want to try out FCMP++ before its mainnet release, this…

Thanks @Aillia for creating this space. It's great to have a ~Library and share common reads, make commentaries and learn together. Here I want to share a book that came up recently in https://stasher.news/items/339194/r/artemis and I read some time ago: Stealth of Nations by Robert Neuwirth an…

If you haven't read this, I would advise you do so. A great piece on a large amount of books that are actually banned, why they are banned, and a little about them. These books aren't banned the way the "banned books" section is at a Barnes and Noble, they're banned in the way that you can only…

I was a nascent anarchist just barely beginning my journey when I came across this book. It helped expose me to a lot of questions I didn't know the answer to. Thank gods for that. http://anarchisthandbook.com/ The White Pill is also a good book. Although I think the pill will be red before it is…

This is good. Very very good book of the old ways. There's a good starter by Jackson Crawford that uses more modern language and selected writings. Have you read it? Would you?

by Harry B Joseph Two crazy little books. Have you read either?

finished this book. here are my fav quotes and ideas: The lesson The art of economics consists in looking not merely at the immediate but at the longer effects of any act or policy; it consists in tracing the consequences of that policy not merely for one group but for all groups. The bad economist…

Hey everyone, John here. For the past week I've been helping Doug (Sunita) book guests for Monero Talk and Monerotopia — the longest-running Monero podcast, on air since 2017. I've booked almost half a dozen guests across the next four weeks so far. What I've learned: the Monero ecosystem is way…

Hi stashers. Solo dev from Switzerland here. Since February I run kashilo.com, a classifieds site (think Craigslist / Kleinanzeigen) built for people who want to buy and sell real goods with Monero and without handing over an identity. What it does today: No email, no phone, no name. Your account…

For people who already know what and why we need better OPSEC. We have been operating under an assumption that doxxing comes with high costs and requires intensive resources. And that deanonymisation is possible but expensive, that linking a forum account to a real identity takes a skilled…

I really like this guy. He ran for president a couple of times. This is an old book with timeless wisdom, but he advocates the necessity in 1974 to consider shielding a good piece of your wealth in swiss bank accounts. He was the original monero bro. Still worth reading.

Welcome to Stasher. With this post, I want to introduce you to the funniest game powered by Monero, a privacy coin you can earn and spend to create insightful posts and thoughtful comments. I discovered Monero a long time ago, forgot about it, and this game gave me an opportunity to dust off my…

So I'm a pretty clean eater, I have my treats for sure but I do notice lots of similarties in how the food industry treats people the same as the financial sector. Lies, Lies and more lies then a little bit more lies. Now I am a nutritionist so I go down these rabbit holes a lot. Three is Dr.…

I say nutrition is tied to fitness so Imma drop this here. Inflammation what about it!?!? What is it and how do we get it. Well a big one is Omega 6 fat. Here's a little breakdown of some thoughts I have on what's happening internally and what/why I use the ones I use. I cook mainly in tallow and…

Hello geeks, I am curious to know who mine Monero using their homelab? I got myself a Lenovo P510 with E5-2698 v4 a year ago, I then increased to 128Gb ram. I self host a media and photo library at first but then increased with Nostr Relays and projects. I fell into the Monero and Bitcoin rabbit…

Signing Monero transactions offline isn't easy to begin with, and even the official method is complex and risky enough that it's not really recommended. But there's another thing about the official flow that's bothered me for a while: it doesn't actually build the transaction offline. The transfer…

For those who do not know: Nikolai was a true builder and one of the last genuine cypherpunks in crypto. He focused on elegant, permissionless, corruption-resistant systems rather than hype, profit, or personal branding. As one tribute put it, he spent his life crafting tools to realize a vision of…

today is Nikolai Mushegian's (@delete_shitcoin) 33rd birthday. here's to a genius who dared to see things for what they are and call them by their true names—and, most importantly, when he saw something wrong, he built the tools to make it right. Nikolai was a builder in the…
