the bitcoin-core-dev@linuxfoundation.org (not bitcoin-dev) mailing list is now officially an announcements list
it was already *effectively* an announcements list for a long time—no discussion ever happened on it—but it is set up as moderated now
so if you are interested in a low-traffic list for notifications of releases, release candidates and security warnings, subscribe to:

The Most Backdoor-looking Bug I've Ever Seen - Cryptography Dispatches: https://buttondown.email/cryptography-dispatches/archive/cryptography-dispatches-the-most-backdoor-looking/
I once thought I too could protect the data of a lot of users.
I ran a machine learning company that analyzed social media data.
Unlike competitors I made this a free public search engine.
Investors demanded I turn it into a political propaganda machine.
I ultimately quit.

Includes math for the mathies, and easy to understand conclusions for the non-mathies. https://medium.com/swlh/so-youre-going-outside-a-physics-based-coronavirus-infection-risk-estimator-for-leaving-the-house-d7dcae2746c0
@waxwing listening to the slp podcast seems like accumulating most of the change into a single output that's an eltoo channel factory would make cross input sig aggregation pretty effective for coin joins. Something like all inputs > x, all outputs bar one < x, and the remaining output a channel factory. Could have some atomic lightning txs implied too I think.
