Why the US Tariffs are Here to Stay - A New Economic Era
Most analyst do not understand the reasons behind the tariffs Trump announced today, they just see short term stock market crisis, or tensions between nations, the so called Trade War; the truth is that behind these tariffs there is a giant geopolitical, and economic shift happening.
Globalism right now is benefiting China more than any other nation because they have the manufacturing capacity of the world, this has to be reversed, otherwise every other world power will be completely eclipsed and China will become not just a super power, but the world's hegemon like America was once after World War II.
The way the Trump Administration has found to either slow down, stop, or diminish the power of a rising China is the enact tariffs on all nations, with an emphasis on China.
The objective is to make sure that we will have a multi polar world based on geopolitical areas of influence, America intends to control the whole American continent from Antarctica to the Arctic.
That is why suddenly it becomes very important to control Greenland, to make sure Canada takes care of their borders, to make sure Mexico is a partner and not an economic and drug influenced enemy. The Panama canal follows the same logic, and soon we will see more of this pattern.
China and Russia seem to be the new era regional powers.
For Trump, Lutnick (Commerce Secretary), Scott Bessent (Treasury Sec.), Rubio (Foreign Sec.) and Hegseth (Defense Sec.) this is the new reality they must impose or America 🇺🇸 will face major demotion and no longer be a super power.
What should a small investor do in the meantime? Treasuries, gold, stablecoins, and if you know what you are doing select crypto assets or stocks like Bitcoin.
For quality news commentary that reveals what is really happening, a way to escape the matrix of deception the media tells us, and also lots of laughs and humor nothing beats No Agenda with nostr:nprofile1qqsgs0l2fsr3lkjyqmftv6lzrjc7mt6950s9spgdvgq7euwnt94mcwgppamhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5q32amnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwv3sk6atn9e5k7tcy6pfuq and John C.

What Monero node would you recommend for this p2p exchange?
I know Rust. I researched Zig.
I use Rust for an app backend my company is developing.
Observe.
Examine.
Think.
Act.
OODA for people.
Depends on what you want to build. Rust ecosystem is much larger.
OPEN SOURCE AI WEAKNESS,
A CYPHERPUNK RESPONSE: DARK OPENCODE
Given how easy is to use someone else’s code via an AI LLM, and how easy it is to copy the features of open source software for closed source applications a cypherpunk response is needed.
I propose Dark OpenCode as a way to share the fruit of volunteer coders without source code for AI LLMs to copy.
Dark OpenCode gives away the binaries for free, but the code is visible only for contributors, the real members of the community. The IP remains with the community, but the fruits of the work are shared freely with all.
Feedback welcome. I do intend to use this idea for future projects that would feed LLMs unfairly to the makers of the code.

Quite accurate open source is an easy target for AI and large tech firms to exploit.
We need Dark Open Code. Here the binaries are free, and the code is visible for contributors, and real members of the community, but the IP remains with the team.

Fedora under IBM is quite different than before. A corporate organization with plenty of DEI and little regarding freedom
or cypherpunk ideals.

Cool interview!
Indeed those who have lived through hyper inflation understand the need to separate the state from the money.
The OpenCash website is live: https://opencash.dev. I designed and developed it myself. Really happy with the results. Check it out, and support the development of open-source digital cash.

True, but not everyone who looks like an NPC, even acts like one is an NPC inside.
The smarter cypherpunks walk in the shadows.
And some NPC are just sleeping lions waiting to be awakened.
Remember Satoshi. The reason we don’t know who he was is because he looked like an NPC until he didn’t.
