And we are not freaking out, at least as far as I can see, just slowly losing all hope. But maybe the AI bubble will pop fast enough to save us all here from suicide by despair. 10:39:05 <4rkal> https://cyphergoat.com/this-week-in-monero/issue-18 10:48:08 @rbrunner7: this 10:48:30 (tho I'm not better, I've been vibe coding a python plot visualization or cuprate syncing) 10:56:01 @rbrunner7: I think if we wait a little longer POTUS will prohibit the EU from accessing US tech so we'll be good on our side of the pond ;-) 11:00:15 <321bob321> Not if cyber force has anything to do with it 11:00:24 I would say that visualizations are ok-ish for vibe coding. It's not mission-critical, it's often more or less throw-away, often anything amiss is visible in plain sight, if some graph just does not make sense. Excel charting on steroids, if you like - doing it with Excel is also often hit-and-miss there, for decades already, and not many deaths resulted as far as became known. 11:11:05 Linux has really enshittified since at least a few years. At some point in version v6.12 (which was LTS) a maintainer pushed a vibe coded fix that ended up allowing any unprivileged process to crash the kernel through systemd 11:12:32 Why does systemd have the capacity to crash the kernel? Which subsystem did that? 11:13:51 hold on 11:19:48 found it 11:19:52 @aethrvmn:theke.ml: https://x.com/spendergrsec/status/1958264076162998771 11:20:16 my bad you actually need CAP_SYS_RESOURCE 11:21:13 i advice reading the comment 11:21:32 he highlight many morecases of AI slop in the kernel pushing insecurity 12:00:03 acx part-time work on Monfluo 2026Q1 is now fully funded! https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/acx-monfluo-maintenance-and-further-development-4.html @luigi1111 13:41:03 https://mrelay.p2pool.observer/m/matrix.org/fZOGBzWWKzgGwpIMzuUVbxyC.png (30621.png) 13:41:35 Congrats to our Iranian Monero bros made it 🫡 15:20:10 howdy 16:18:27 Binaries for latest version v0.18.4.5 are now available at getmonero.org 21:07:05 Finally ath, i can leave my normijob for working full time for monero. 21:07:05 What program language should I start learning? 21:08:22 Serious about it 21:16:14 currently C++ but there is also a rust implementation being worked on called cuprate 21:27:40 What would you say is more important to focus on? 21:27:40 Also will a year of intense learning will bring me to a level that i will actually be able to contribute? 21:30:52 usual recommendation is use monero and see where you think improvements. thinks you want to work on, can/should be made 21:31:05 also look at open issues and similar and see what you think you can help with 21:31:13 the code is somewhat complex and the old parts were not commented 21:31:27 but people are helpful 21:39:04 Sync time is the worse. 21:39:04 Then the 10 confirmation wait. 21:41:28 Cuprate significantly improved sync time over monerod and @boog900:monero.social's ongoing work is diminishing it even further by yet another significant amount, notably on HDD. 21:42:01 You can find a lot of documentation in Cuprate's repository on many aspect of monero technicals. 21:42:42 So I would say quote and quote "sync time being bad will not be an issue for long". 21:43:22 As for 10 confirmation, I would invite you to go over the MRL github issues, where extensive discussions have took place about this topic 21:43:45 The 10 confirmation is no big deal if you use Monero and have multiple outputs at all time in your wallet 21:45:17 @hbs:matrix.org: it is an issue for the non technical user 21:45:38 @monero_e:matrix.org: Not if such user uses Monero regularly 21:47:58 C++ will stay relevant in the far future of monero? 21:48:25 @monero_e:matrix.org: 100% 21:50:46 @hbs:matrix.org: yep. Its only really a problem for people who spend all of their xmr at once and only have 1 input 21:50:53 will a year of intense learning c++ will bring me to a level that i will actually be able to contribute? 21:51:01 Certainly 21:51:38 but as a contributor of Cuprate, I would argue that Cuprate have technical advantages over monerod, is more modern and shows better performance 21:51:49 so you should think about learning Rust too 😉 21:52:16 s/modern/recent 21:52:46 latest and greatest 21:55:45 The 10 confirmation is no big deal if you use Monero and have multiple outputs at all time in your wallet <> or have more than 1 wallet 21:56:32 beware syntheticbird from the church of rust :D 21:58:14 nioc what if tou have less than 1 wallet? 21:58:16 may the faith in our god ferris be with you enjoyer. We're all part of the great borrow checker, and only the compiler knows our exact lifetime, whether we like it or not. 21:58:58 ofrn then there is no hope for you 22:14:39 Around since 2020 22:14:39 Only way i contribute is making a monero group in my country, posting memes and few hundreds of stickers. 22:14:39 Existing for the real thing. 22:22:15 thumbs_up 22:39:33 soon n1oc will announce that sneedlewoods CCS is fully funded 22:39:47 it will actually be over funded lol 22:41:40 🥲 23:00:03 SNeedlewoods-03_part-time dev work-Q1-26 is now fully funded! https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/SNeedlewoods-03_part-time_dev_work-Q1-26.html @luigi1111
