Watch out. Criticizing the Jaguar ad might be considered a crime in the UK.

Well, IOUs based on someone else’s promise to pay.

Price is really an indication of a boundary condition between two systems that allow for exchange. You can consider yourself as a system:

So, for anything of value, price:

You<->USD

You<->BTC

And of course,

USD<->BTC

Any disequilbrium results in price change between the systems

We likely never crossed paths because I hung out in the arts library doing assignments instead of the math/engineering library

doing research. There were more incentives to hang out in arts library.

A big laugh...

mathematicians: study hard problems

computer scientists: create useful things from hard problems

engineers: build things that don't crash

Permissionless zaps

The most frightening thing I heard this week is that social media is accelerating the split of the human race into two subspecies. All the more reason on doubling down on creating a neutral socioeconomic protocol like #nostr

#Nostr reads and feeds in one app with their own tab is sheer genius.

Congrats to the nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg folks for doing this. It brings #nostr to another level

Hmmm. GetAlby must not be broadcasting the zap receipts

‘npub can publish its own notes TRANSMITTED across relays’

Does that clarify it enough for ya?
