whaack: thimbronion: How's the box in CR holding up? I forget, are you running a trb node on it?
thimbronion: whaack: It's doing well. No trb node on it.
thimbronion: I was recently thinking of either writing an article or generating an infographic comparing the code complexity of trb vs prb and also vs some of the most popular alt coins.
thimbronion: Seems to be not obvious to a lot of people.
billymg: thimbronion: i don't think most people even fundamentally understand why complexity is bad
billymg: or, unnecessary complexity, or complexity for the sake of muh features
thimbronion: billymg: agreed
billymg: myth of "open source" alive and well. "hey, if the code is publicly available that means some benevolent neckbeard somewhere has read it to ensure there is nothing malicious in there"
whaack: ^ that 'benevolent neckbeard' quote can be adjusted into a good article title
thimbronion: I suspect dogecoin would compare favorable to prb.
thimbronion: *favorably
