Oh wow, so the schematics are published, the repair procedure is documented and you can 3D print the parts yourself? Sign me up for the open source shower!

Oh you thought open source meant sharing your secrets? Nah it’s actually more common to see secrets in the code in closed source projects than in projects that were open source from the start. In open source software, you need to set your own PP_SIZE as an env var or provide it in a .env file or keyvault.

The “paper billionaire” argument does not hold: https://github.com/MKorostoff/1-pixel-wealth/blob/master/THE_PAPER_BILLIONAIRE.md

To Nole Skum it is a joke. He has a total wealth of about $270 billion. $250 million is approxinately 1/1000 of that.

So divide your wealth by 1000, think of how you would feel losing that due to a rare event, while you knowingly took the risk. Does not seem like a big deal to me at all.
