No. Zoomers are NOT "more technologically savvy" than prior generations. They are CERTAINLY not "better at using the internet".

They have been corralled into a tiny, dumbed-down version of the internet running on third-party services EXPLICITLY designed for people who have no idea how the internet actually works. They aren't "better at the internet", they are simply the definitive embodiment of a product/market fit.

The Constitutional Convention of 1787 was a coup d'etat, the result of which would have been dramatically different had it not been deliberately held while Jefferson was 3,700 miles away in France.

Gold is remonetizing... temporarily.

#unpopularopinion 0016:

The Constitutional Conventions of 1787 were a successful coup d'etat purposefully engineered to remove the constraints on government and centralize the power of the state.

Transaction malleability fix aside, segwit was a mistake. But it is a mistake we have to live with, so we might as well build LN .
