I don't think I make either of the errors that Ghost mentioned, nor the one Rupert mentions. Irregardless was a joke, and was invented by Bush iirc. It somehow caught on, and not ironically by most people. Haven't heard it in a while though.

I strictly lurk it now and then. Though the past couple weeks have been more time, since that was the place for ColdCard and BIP-110 news. As an unfortunate side effect though, I have spent more time watching random short videos than I care to admit. Like how to make a copper mug, some Indian guy making jewelry out of plastic with only the most primitive of tools, and about 10k street fights.

I may have gotten some of it wrong, as I'm now researching a bit and filling in some holes. Apparently snakes on a plane was working title, the. Changed to something boring, but jam Saxon (Sam Jackson, just trying out a pun name I thought of other day) mentioned original name at press junket and it caught fire on early net. Then apparently it was huge for people to post ideas for movie based on the name, and movie incorporated some of this early viral feedback.

I suppose the salt is to prevent brute force guessing the file contents, since knowing the type of list it would contain narrows the search space considerably.

Yeah, my understanding is when new block hits you are better off starting to line an empty block than figure out what txns to include before you start searching. A short time after you can build non empty and try for fees.

Good info, didn't know what kind of volume it did. And yeah, empty blocks happen often enough, due to how miners optimize searching, sometimes immediately after previous block, at which time they don't yet include txns and are content to trade off speed with fees. If I understand correctly
