RT Nick Szabo (@NickSzabo4)Wrong. Boris Johnson and Angela Merkle were the biggest people importers. They were pro-business moderates, not leftists. They were chiefly pleasing their business donors.Also, it's a mistake to think the left doesn't have its share of business donors. An even bigger share once the left shifted its ideology to be less pro-worker and more pro-immigrant.Also, governments themselves are employers and want cheap labor too. ...

RT Nick Szabo (@NickSzabo4)I hope we can do something more trust-minimized and less risky for financial transaction immutability than BIP 444.I see a high value in fixing the segwit discount, inscription-related bugs, and perhaps some other related things, but I also worry about the added complexity and risk, and I worry about rugging useful financial functionality.
