I can agree that Japanese curry is a derivative of traditional curries. I grew up in the US and never had any curries until I moved to Japan so they are all delicious for me. We just got an Indian curry restaurant in my city which is my favorite. My wife also makes a good keema curry. Personally I am torn between Thai green curry and Indian curry, they are both so good. 🤤
My friend has a hunting license. I am planning on getting mine in a couple of years. In the mean time I help with gutting but need more work with skinning too.
The only way you can truly appreciate your food is by growing it or hunting it. Knowing the time and energy to bring the dinner to the table makes it more delicious.
Reading the Iliad and learning how the Greeks would rank their greatness...
1) God like (name)
2) War like (name)
3) Swift footed (name)
4) Leader of men (name)
5) Shepard of men (name)
Then they like to reference...
1) Send you past Hades to Cronos in depths of Tartarus.
2) Scatter your entails across the fertile for the dogs and crows to pick at.
Easy to complain, but only the great come up with solutions. This is very common in the work place and the people who get promoted are promoted for a reason. Logic solutions over feelings of frustration.
But the draw back is still going, I think they until about $250 trillion. The questions are:
1) will it be a hard or soft landing?
2) if hard landing, what will be the trigger?
I didn't praise, there might be some good situations where monero comes in handy. In Japan, cash under the table takes on this role, but you don't want to be saving in cash.
This is correct, but certain parts of the world haven't figured this out yet. Also the political landscape might require alternative PoW protocols to secure privacy. In Japan cash still works for privacy, but I would never save in cash or a shitcoin. And yes I have been criticized for my SoV standpoint, but that is bitcoin for me until I can use it as a UoA.
I am the same, but the technology and PoW interests me. Like I said in another post, cash works fine for day to day purchases for now. But who knows about the future?
I respectfully disagree, I think adoption would be harder if it was private. Bitcoin you can verify, if it was private you would have to trust.
Bitcoin White Paper 10. Privacy, "The traditional banking model achieves a level of privacy by limiting access to information to the parties involved and the trusted third party. The necessity to announce all transactions publicly precludes this method, but privacy can still be maintained by breaking the flow of information in another place: by keeping public keys anonymous. The public can see that someone is sending an amount to someone else, but without information linking the transaction to anyone. This is similar to the level of information released by stock exchanges, where the time and size of individual trades, the "tape", is made public, but without telling who the parties were."
I have been seeing more monero people on nostr too. My take is that Bitcoin is an "anonymous" savings account, and monero is an optional "private" checking account. I don't know their situation in the world but with KYC creeping into bitcoin I feel their concern.
I am not a writer nor reader but love to share stories and hear stories. For the last seven years I have been into audio books because they allow me to double task. It's just too time consuming to sit and read or write these days, maybe when I retire.
🤣🤣🤣
After the reclassification of what is a job (person of lgbtqi+ status and holding a part-time job gets +100 weighted score, and straight white male holding a full time job gets -100 weight score).
Yeah, now I understand, but I don't see it that way. The usd measures the supply and demand for a commodity this is why prices change. So does bitcoin or anything in that matter, it doesn't have to be converted into dollars.
I understand the need of stability in an UoA. Many of us grew up with usd, many companies set their prices in usd, it is easy for many to imagine the true labor cost/asset price in usd.
I guess when the usd goes the way of the German Weimar Republic, then it will be more practical to measure in btc? https://image.nostr.build/1b8047ce3b6390ddd3dcb60298d20ae49267305cb888b9c74952e51e7c58df7d.jpg
@Kanzan I didn't realize you are into monero until now. Where are you living in the world and can you use monero to buy locally? This year on the Rebel Capitalist show they went on a trip to South America with only gold and bitcoin. They soon found out that almost nobody would take these as a currency and that it is more a SoV. Wonder how the trip would have been if they had used monero.
I know that monero is PoW and focuses on privacy rather than anonymity. But I wanted to hear your take on monero.
As for Japan, cash is still king and works great for keeping things under the table, but they are slowly migrating to paypay and other credit card systems.
Bitcoin was never meant to be private but anonymous. I don't know enough about monero to judge this system but when it comes to fiat, isn't not using banks handing cash under the table private enough?
Anonymous not Private
Verified not Trusted
I see your point through Satoshi's comments on ZK proofs, but the White Papers under Privacy section Chapter 10 reads, "by keeping public keys anonymous. The public can see that someone is sending an amount to someone else, but without information linking the transaction to anyone."
Satoshi consciously made bitcoin an anonymous verified system rather than a private banking modeled trusted system. This is the opening of Chapter 10 in the White Papers, "The traditional banking model achieves a level of privacy by limiting access to information to the parties involved and the trusted third party. The necessity to announce all transactions publicly precludes this method..."
If you are so big into privacy, why don't you keep your comments private? Is it dogmatic to quote the bitcoin white papers? It is Satoshi's blueprint to his creation, how is that dogmatic? I think I lost what little intelligence I had reading your post.
