 And suggesting “this is how bitcoin works” is kinda strange given that :/

 I didn't (want to) suggest that, it's just that I think he's a very valuable person and I empathize with him and therefore appreciate his perspective and honesty. 

Same goes to you. We're lucky to have people like that in Bitcoin and I'm pumped that he's back.

 “Listen to this Pod and you'll learn a hundred times more about Bitcoin than by listening to the 500th podcast episode about [nonsense]” sounds like a ringing endorsement to me :)

I definitely empathize with Jeremy, he definitely did get a lot of conflicting signals and that’s hard. I also value his contribution in normalizing covanents and the idea of adding them to Bitcoin. But he assumes certain malintent on the part of others that just contributes to a culture of “fuck the devs” which just isn’t healthy.
