If a politician came out and said “We are not going to cut Medicare or social security, but we are going to pay out all future checks in a new currency called the mini-dollar.”, that politician would have no chance of getting elected.

Most voters would assume the new mini-dollar would have far less value than the current dollar.  It would be seen as an immoral bait and switch.

However - this is exactly what they are all saying right now.  Future dollars will actually be figurative mini-dollars as they will be able purchase much less due to the amount of dollars that will be printed to meet those claims.  It is an immoral bait and switch.

🪧 The Four-Quarters Method

Instead of thinking, “I’ve blown the whole day, I’ll get back on track tomorrow,” try viewing your day as four separate quarters:

   •   Morning
   •   Midday
   •   Afternoon
   •   Evening

If one quarter doesn’t go as planned, reset for the next one. This way, you can fail small, not big, and stay in control of your progress.

– Gretchen Rubin

“You helped me put it all together there. And what I understood is that the future cannot be designed, but it can be discovered. And our job is to create conditions that maximize the possibility of the discovery of more optimal futures.

And the way we do that is not solely through planning, not even primarily through planning. What we need to do is create rules that are palatable to other human beings, that other human beings can imitate, so we can participate together in this process of the division of labor, the process of increasing the number of human beings on the planet who are able to live in prosperity that's created by profit.”

It's like, and the more libertarian types, they take the second half of that and dispense with the first, and that's not going to work.”

How big is your fade?


Was shopping with my son this weekend and I made him price everything in Sats before deciding to buy.  We bought nothing.  A hoodie for 200,000?  That’s way to expensive.


Great post.  Sounds like a slow motion Norwegian Mandibles.  Smaller case studies like this are valuable because you can more clearly see the trends.  Good luck.


These are similar to securities laws in the US.  Positive if it is properly applied to all the shitcoins.  Need to get/keep BTC off the list.  Good news is the BTC is truly peer to peer, so it can get around these restrictions.

Can’t wait to see 3% Lightning discounts.  You don’t have to ditch payment apps- you just have to use the right payment network.  nostr:npub1cn4t4cd78nm900qc2hhqte5aa8c9njm6qkfzw95tszufwcwtcnsq7g3vle https://www.wsj.com/personal-finance/paying-cash-discounts-deals-3f7774e9?mod=mhp

When you have to define someone’s brilliance without any solid evidence - you may be describing a fraud.


3 of these people look happy.  One looks like he can’t remember his 12th word.


Pressed get started and got “no NOSTR extension found”.  Is there a Joe Biden-level instruction set somewhere?


Looks sick.  Where can i get?


So they cause the crisis, then benefit from it.  Good work if you can get it.


If all the pins were like that, what was the winning score?

This is what Frankel called “the final freedom”.  How you react to your circumstances is totally in your control - even if the circumstances aren’t.


Basically LLM Epic Rap Battles?


This is great.  Nice little ETH debunk in there as well.


nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx thanks for the book recommendation. I won’t be able to sleep until I’m done reading it.  Then I won’t be able to sleep because I read it. https://image.nostr.build/8cad4d3e38c40d0870f05a2e813e2b98b26f7ea059e574c4b64312e60da78bcc.jpg


Always skip them.  They can’t force you in the US yet.


You’re on the wrong side of the ball.


You’ll need a more KYC version of your driver’s license or a passport to get through TSA.  If you just want to walk across the border with 1,000,000 friends or vote - no ID required.


Whirlwind is terrible.  Shogun is amazing.  Tai Pan & Noble house are great.  Gai Jin is OK.  King Rat is good, but doesn’t fit with the rest.


If you want a deep dive down this rabbit hole:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-martyrmade-podcast/id978322714?i=1000337979011

Fear and Loathing in the New Jerusalem series by Martyr Made is mind blowing.


In.  But I refuse to go on the roof of the train.  Deal breaker?


Captain Obvious: when you need heat, it’s because there isn’t enough sun.


All these books are about bitcoin. https://image.nostr.build/a265789033fc951344d81ad459507e85efbfdbb4beddd87c337fc4e7c534e36a.jpg


I’ve completed the analysis and summed up my recommendations here:

Stay humble, stack sats.

Please have the EU contact me directly for a payment address.  Bitcoin only.

Most pre-suffering is done by females who then share this with their mates.  If men had the same level of pre-suffering, they would never go try to kill a wooly mammoth with a stick.


Also why urban areas have more leftist policy leanings.  The people that provide most things in their lives are either distant or anonymous, and urban dwellers are geographically incapable of self-reliant living.  No judgement here, just obvious evolutionary pressures.


Humans communicated visually for millions of years before developing verbal, then written language.  There is a deep evolutionary reason that a picture is worth 1,000 words.


The obvious would be when you have a rapidly degrading asset.  Like a truckload of fruit or a wallet full of fiat.  Regardless of some optimal/ideal value of that asset somewhere else in some other time, your best bet is to unload it a reasonable, if suboptimal, price as quickly as possible.  The longer you wait, the less valuable that asset will be.


Options that are viable and available that don’t get used are not valuable enough (yet) compared to other options.  Like everything else, interesting parallels to Bitcoin.


He’s really just describing central banking.


Humans have prehistoric emotions, mid evil institutions, and god-like technology.  - unknown


This.


"The % of young adults who said that a college degree is very important has dropped to 41% from 74% over the last 10 years, per the NYT"

Welcome to the YouTube generation and the forever outdated curriculums.

GM.


Vitalik makes a cameo in that one and is less than an impressive character.


Stay strapped and stack caps.


Yes please.  I’ve been working on slowing my take away.  I’ll use any help I can get.

Do you feel safe or threatened by this picture?  Good rorschach test. https://image.nostr.build/1d284829df021783e15f0cd98a62b8a3b15b3e38328eeb61092369ba64d55832.jpg


This guy better watch his back.  I hope all comes out in the open, but the stakes he is discussing are huge and the people involved apparently have no morals.


Never skip leg day.


When the bulk of their assets cannot be seized and the state is incapable of using force to compel payment.  Could be localized or regional, but a general assurance that men with guns won’t be knocking on your door is what it will take for enough people to participate.


Every weekend I get to golf this time of year feels like it might be the last for 6 months.  But the courses are in great shape now that peak heat is past and all the greens have recovered from aeration…


It’s nice to see more people talking about the obvious problem.  However - the dramatic pauses, exaggerated hand gestures, and overall feel of this is ‘I’m reading from a script and tomorrow could be telling you everything is fine with the exact same level of certainty.’


100%. Too many people of a certain age, in the west generally, but America particularly grew up in an environment that taught them ‘the good guys always win’ without ever: 1. Defining good guys in a meaningful way, & 2. Showing all the times that didn’t happen.  ‘Might makes right’ was a real thing for most of human history and those wielding coercion and power to get their way were not the ‘good guys’.  Keep on keepin’ on Eric.


I think a fair amount about why I am doing this (as in working in Bitcoin and educating around it as I see it), and why I don’t just throw it to the win and live my own happy little life.

The truth is that I think if we are not ‘all in’ we may very well lose. And not just bitcoin, but the wider vision of the Cypherpunks, and the possibility of a truly free internet and what that promise would mean to humanity.

I simply cannot walk away. I must do this because I feel morally and ethically obliged to fight fiat on every front available so that the lies may finally be seen by all for what they are: lies.

Damn lies that have pulled the whole of Earth into its nihilism and despair; damning language itself to its collapse and presenting the impossible idea of freedom from the State and its infinite tyranny.

We must win—or all of posterity will be enslaved forever.


Go back to bed.  What a shit show by the Americans.  Scottie Sheffler is not showing any alpha dog DNA.  Who’s the leader of this team?  JT has the fire, but down year.  Spieth, same.  Would have been nice to have Dustin Johnson at least.


Should i give Marty shit on RHR tomorrow?  Answer always yes.


For all his other faults, Bill Gates has been in on Nuclear for a long time.  One of his projects has been funding Intellectual Ventures who has been working on this.  https://www.intellectualventures.com/buzz/insights/why-we-need-innovative-nuclear-energy


Agree.  Also feel free to take a walk during meetings that don’t require visuals.  My team is used to hearing background noise on occasion when I’m getting fresh air.
