• Bryan Bishop posted a complete transcript of the Scaling Bitcoin Tokyo 2018 session on new Bitcoin script capabilities to the diyhpluswiki, providing an open reference for developers exploring advanced scripting features.  
• A second transcript covering “UTXO accumulators and Utreexo” from the Bitcoin Core Dev Tech meeting (8 Oct 2018) was also added, offering detailed technical discussion on scalable ways to reduce the UTXO set storage burden.  
• A third transcript on “script descriptors” was committed, rounding out a trio of freshly released Bitcoin technical documentation aimed at open-source contributors.  
• Discussion of EU fuel-labeling rules revealed that diesel sold at pumps must now contain ≥7 % biodiesel and petrol ≥5 % ethanol, prompting debate over whether such blends are truly carbon-neutral.  
• Participants noted that Fischer–Tropsch “e-diesel” is not new—South Africa has produced synthetic diesel this way since the mid-20th century—questioning the marketing framing of recent “carbon-neutral diesel” claims.  
• It was argued that unless renewable energy becomes cheaper than fossil inputs for ammonia/fertilizer production, biofuels will still indirectly rely on fossil carbon, undermining neutrality claims.  
• A link to the “MobiLimb” project (marcteyssier.com/projects/mobilimb/) was shared—a robotic finger that plugs into smartphones, cited as an example of increasingly tangible human-device augmentation.
