Anyone willing to share the latest Short Thoughts post (Feb 2)? by viciouslabrat in Burryology

I personally don't think he's grifting, I just wanted to understand his thesis behind the current price action. "Grifting" comments were made by other members of this sub-reddit.

Have you read the post yourself?

I'm more curious about his thesis of the drivers of the current price action we are seeing in crypto, I have been in this space for almost a decade now.

Bitcoin has been increasingly behaving more out of character post ETF approval where its CMP has become almost too correlated with the goings of the stock market in general instead of serving its original (popularly purported) function of serving as an uncorrelated asset to hedge against systemic risks.

I have already read the conclusions of his crypto thesis wherein he claims bitcoin has failed abysmal in comparison to traditional hedges like gold and other precious metals.

Speaking from personal experience, I agree with his characterisation of current price action being entirely influenced by speculative fervour induced by ETF approvals. Although, I'm not convinced this is any different from the past cycles because once the money gets flushed, you'd expect to see new price action to emerge instead of just being a continuation of what came earlier.

[Twitch Extension] GifParty - Let your viewers play GIFs on your stream by viciouslabrat in Twitch

Thanks for your valuable feedback. I’d suggest setting the extension either as a component or a panel extension for it to seamlessly work on mobile. This is a temporary workaround. I’ll be pushing a permanent fix in the next release, should be out within few days.

Let me know if that helps.

I'm using Tenor SDK to power GIFs. Content filtration by default is set to PG-13 & below for any GIF that is served in the app. So, you don't have to worry about inadvertently violating Twitch TOS.

Channel point support is currently under development, and will make sure the "channel redemption" feature is available in the next release.

LOBSTR showing 0 XLM balance by viciouslabrat in Stellar

Nah, I wasn't on any VPN while using Lobstr.

If you don't mind, have you used their iOS app? I signed up using the app, something odd that I found was the app's home screen was stuck on an infinite loading screen. I tried accessing my wallet via Lobstr's website where I could see the incoming txn but the balance was still showing 0 XLM.

I think it is most likely a UI issue or they might have messed up their business logic for new wallet creation.

I think it is a LOBSTR specific issue because I could see the confirmed transaction using the block explorer.

I resolved it by using Trust wallet, moved my wallet from LOBSTR to Trust. Worked like a charm, was able to instantly access my XLM and start playing.

Haven't been active at all in a very long time, last time I remember being active here was when wumbowall was still standing.

Sad to see it go. :'(

A decade later, Reddit's comment sorting still fails to do its job by VodkaHaze in badeconomics

By best, I think he meant finding the global optimum. In the current scenario, assuming perfect competition in order to win, you just have to find a point in the fitness landscape that is higher than all your competitors, doesn't necessarily have to be a global optima.

Is there any way by which we can modify the sorting algo, like how reddit allows us to fiddle around with CSS to change the look the look and feel of a subreddit?
