I don't trade. But I'm fortunate that the guy who is paying me to do my work does, and that he can continue to pay me as a result of his success.
It was just meant as a broader comment on the fact that a massive debt crisis is about to unfold in the world, and that Bitcoin is a leading indicator.
I think cheaper is coming too, maybe down to 22k.
Bitcoin is something of a canary in the coal mine because the smaller, weaker, more leveraged hands in the institutionals are dropping it as it is their most marginal bet, and their positions are falling towards margin calls.
It is obvious that happened at Bitfinex earlier today.
If the minnows at Bitfinex are bleeding out via margin calls imagine how deeply problematic it is for everyone who has debt and USD bonds. OUCH!
The rest of the market is gonna see it soon too. Expect non-USD fiats to crash as they are liquidated to cover USD denominated debt and largely USD denominated equities, that are on too much leverage for the rising interest rates.
The fed is deliberately squeezing everyone because they can. All fiat currencies are backed by dollars. All loans are backed by USD bonds. And all the companies that have equities are deeply indebted due to almost 20 years of historically absurdly low interest rates. Like a saggy balloon, easier to burst it if you squeeze it.
About to take the plunge finally and learn to use generic types in Golang. Simplest is integer values, so here goes! wish me luck!
Lyn's recent comment about how beards make men look more attractive, has a little more to say about it.
A lifetime of mouth breathing leads to the jaw dropping backwards, and the teeth being much weaker in their seats.
The "ugly chin" she refers to is caused by mouth breathing and a lack of difficult to chew food. Both of these ensure the jaw muscles stay strong and the teeth stay in place and the whole assemblage doesn't fall backwards.
I used to think that the slackjaw, small, receding chin was attractive when I was younger. I now see that it is actually a recipe for about 30% of what makes people sick these days.
When you are building up your body strength, don't forget your jaw. Plus, women dig it, to the men.
The beard gives the illusion of a thick, properly aligned jaw.
And those of you, who like me, are starting to see it drop backwards, you can reverse the process by nose breathing and chewy food. IE, giant fat steaks. Fat being the operative word.
Acclimating to eating raw beef is not going to happen overnight. I'm gonna need to adjust to the bacteria.
In the meantime, I'm going to seek my main calories fromthe purest chocolate I can find.
I just want to have a little brag at this point .

I wrote this back in 2003. In the jurisdiction I was in, Queensland, there was a law on the texts forbidding instructions on production of "dangerous drugs".
It was very much augmented by my concurrent research into drug synthesis chemistry in my activities on The Hive forum back then. It includes instructions for drying the naptha/hexane, and the use of recrystallisation to purify it.
I did not ever delve deep into it, the shit scares me. But I mastered producing it. The thing that drove me so mad as to do this was that dirty extractions produced a product that was awkward to work with, and had a very wide boiling temperature, and traces of sodium hydroxide causes the ring closure on the DMT to form a particularly nasty betacarboline which causes me asthma, and prevents me from getting a "breakthrough" dose.
And I couldn't take ayahuasca because I was drinking alcohol and consuming caffeine, back then, and up until only weeks ago, and the monoamine oxidase inhibitor in banesteriopsis caapi and syrian rue cause hypertension in combination with aged proteins and caffeine, one time I took the risk back then, and omg, 6 hours of the most hellish headache I have had, short of the one I got one time after way too much sweet red wine.
I am today on a mission to eat 500g of angus beef mince that has only been treated via marinating it in apple cider vinegar.
I so far maybe have snipped at about 10% of it, and my stomach tells me "ENOUGH".
But there ain't nothing else that's goin' in that hole today apart from water.
If the theory is correct, the undamaged essential fats and drained out blood, and the protein are going to feed my GI tract better than anything they have had in some time.
I have been working on going full carnivore since learning about it on bitcoin twitter, as I was already convinced about the benefits of paleo, I want to recover my health as soon as I can, after decades of alcohol abuse and potatoes and seed oils, but it's not easy at first.
I am already convinced of it. End of 2021 I got a big tub of hydrolysed beef, which was augmented with coconut oil, and the most noticable effect was my libido went up really fast, to a level I had not experienced since my 20s.
Further, more recently, trying with beef mince, eating 500g slabs of this that I grilled on an electric griller, I also observed that if I could put the whole thing in my stomach at once, I didn't feel hungry for the rest of the day, and even, at the 500g level, sometimes not the following day either.
At the time, of course, I was consuming a lot of sugars in the form of alcohol.
That is now over. And I'm also forbidding myself from consuming caffeine after noon.
I might take a day to get through this slab of angus beef mince, but idgaf. The best steaks anyway are sat for a month, sealed in tallow, and other such sealing methods. The aging softens up the protein, but obviously, it doesn't substantially increase the risk of a bacterial outbreak causing upset stomach.
Likely, there is going to be bacteria for me to get acclimatised to though, so I'm just gonna persist with it as best I can, whenever I get hungry, pull it out of the fridge and snip away at it, trying to push it as far as possible until I get gag reflex.
Eventually my system will become adapted to this new microflora and form of this food, and I will be able to do the one meal every two days on a 500g batch of angus mince.
The angus is really nice. I'd go for wagyu if I had the money, but angus is ok. I don't know what it is about it that makes it so tasty, but I have a very strong suspicion it is also really good for you. Plus, a huge amount of Stearic acid in the fat, which has all kinds of wonderful effects.
Yes, that's the other food I am permitting myself - unsweetened, 90%+ chocolate. It is the other major source of Stearic acid in nature that is near par with beef.
The politicians are just actors, fronting for their secretive handlers, Directors you might say.
This stuff coming from a politician is a little ominous. This is another false dichotomy in the making. I bet there's some question marks in this guy's background if he is being promoted.
In addition to this, as soon as it talks about wim hof breathing, not directly cold shock, lo and behold. The next is DMT and Ayahuasca...
Something tells me I'm not going to learn anything I am unfamiliar with, just a unified picture tying these things together.

Go is a little unique amongst programming languages, in that there is reams and reams of text written about the business of good names.
As a Go programmer, you should be an expert user of the English language. This example above is typical among americans I have had dealings with in instant messages. Almost all of them don't know the difference!

I also follow that account, yeah, it's a great meme.
Yep, that's the same deal as with Maghreb, north africa, prior to the Dryas, which washed it away, and then a little later, airbursts from large meteorites passing burned what survived for 1200 or so years after the big event, simultaneously as it formed the Sahara it cleared up all the soot still in the air and brought on a period of warming after a nuclear winter.
Most likely also Indonesia and India were also major sites of this. Actually, come to think of it, probably also Siberia, which prior to the event that started the Dryas, minor ice age, nuclear winter, did not have the broken crust that now forms the base of Lake Baikal, it was also a temperate/subarctic rainforest.
It is probable, in my opinion, that all of the rainforests on the planet were fostered into existence or amplified by humans who understood the carbon cycle.
So, I got to the third act of The Apocalypse of Yajnavalkya.
The end of the second third of the book was hard. Pedos and blood sacrifice and all that. Alters and manchurian candidates.
The last third is about what to do, like any good story, the juiciest part is the final act.
First cab off the rank: eat beef and chocolate.
Second: breathwork.
Third: cold shock acclimatisation.
Whatever you might say about the ideas of the idea that it's all about Atlantis and the stories of the war in heaven, the flood story, and their departure 12000 years ago for worlds in the direction of the Pleiades, there is no doubt that right there just the first three sections are precisely what you want to be doing to reclaim your health and sovereignty.
