Developer Inserts ‘Bug’ in Bitcoin Ordinals—How Bad Is It?

Posted by in category: bitcoin

The transaction in question, which did not include any satoshis (smallest unit of BTC), was found in block 788200.

“[The Ordinals protocol] validated the inscription (3492721) attached to the input, which sounds like a bug,” Ludo Galabru, staff engineer at Hiro Systems commented on the issue on GitHub. “Philosophically, the satoshi inscribed was transferred to the miner as a transaction fee, but was nevertheless inscribed by its previous owner.”

The Ordinals creator Casey Rodarmor agreed that “it shouldn’t be possible to inscribe sats that you don’t own,” suggesting the transaction is indeed a bug.

Would building a Dyson sphere be worth it? We ran the numbers

Posted by in categories: alien life, bitcoin, nuclear energy, solar power, sustainability

In 1960, visionary physicist Freeman Dyson proposed that an advanced alien civilization would someday quit fooling around with kindergarten-level stuff like wind turbines and nuclear reactors and finally go big, completely enclosing their home star to capture as much solar energy as they possibly could. They would then go on to use that enormous amount of energy to mine bitcoin, make funny videos on social media, delve into the deepest mysteries of the Universe, and enjoy the bounties of their energy-rich civilization.

But what if the alien civilization was… us? What if we decided to build a Dyson sphere around our sun? Could we do it? How much energy would it cost us to rearrange our solar system, and how long would it take to get our investment back? Before we put too much thought into whether humanity is capable of this amazing feat, even theoretically, we should decide if it’s worth the effort. Can we actually achieve a net gain in energy by building a Dyson sphere?

NVIDIA Reveals REVOLUTIONARY AI — Better Than GPT-4 And Midjourney V5

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, bitcoin, robotics/AI, supercomputing

I dunno if anyone has seen this. As a former Linux user, I’ve been an Nvidia fan for a long time and now they’ve gone on from games and Bitcoin mining. Sorry if this is a double post. I’m on my way out the door for my mom’s Dr appointment. I always worry I’ll double post by accident.


NVIDIA’s Jensen Huang just announced a set of revolutionary new Artificial Intelligence Models and Partnerships at GTC 2023. NVIDIA has always been one of, if not the most important company in the AI Industry by creating the most powerful AI hardware to date. Among them the A100 and future H100 GPU’s which are powering GPT-4 from OpenAI, Midjourney and everyone else. This gives them a lot of power to jump into the AI race themselves and allows them to surpass and beat the currently best AI models from Large Language Models and Image Generation with software like Omniverse and Hardware like the DGX H100 Supercomputer and Grace CPU’s.

04:48 How NVIDIA Beat Every Competitor at AI
07:40 Running High End AI Locally.
10:20 What is NVIDIA’s Future?
13:05 Accelerating Future.

Technology is improving at an almost exponential rate. Robots are learning to walk & think, Brain Computer Interfaces are becoming commonplace, new Biotechnology is allowing for age reversal and Artificial Intelligence is starting to surpass humans in many areas.
