Find Stacker News Live #44: Mostly to dunk on monero people on YouTube and BitcoinTV

Happy Sat-urday Stackers,

I asked ChatGPT how would you use bitcoin in a content ranking algorithm ...

Bitcoin could potentially be used in a content ranking algorithm to incentivize users to submit high-quality content or to weight the votes of users when determining a piece of content's ranking. This could help to ensure that the content on the site is of a high quality and reflective of the interests of its users.

Whelp, I'm nearly out of a job.

Celebrate your irreducible human qualities this weekend, stackers!

This one is a tough nut to crack, as I found the documentation a bit unclear, but anonsats is some kind of integration between LNBits, a multi-user custodial Lightning wallet, and Cashu, an ecash wallet and mint with Lightning support. The extent of the integration is unclear, but it's fun to play with either way!
