figuring it all out I appreciate your humor, insight, and your post whether or not I agree

Santa & Jesus might just be scanning Nostr for wishes. It has to help when people have a well defined request.

Wish they had showed this in math class

I had to tell myself stories about numbers to make them make sense.

1 and 3 were two boys in class that both liked 4.

2 and 4 were two girls that both liked 6.

2 didn't like 7 (annoying boy) but they would hang out if 9 was around.

3 and 5 both had a crush on 8 but she was in the next grade.

Etc

Ive always hated math so much

It's like numbers are taunting me.

So I'm going to post this Euclid algorithm page from Penrose "Emperor's New Mind" pretending to understand it.

His example ends in "21"

i think i looked up stats once. most of the accidents which are with vehicles are too bad for helmet to matter. I want to say helmet may help with 20% of all bike accidents.

electric bikes, however, are a different story... they require a level of safety and caution above traditional bikes. please use helmet

maybe i'll try it out on my nieces and see if it's still a hit. Hopefully 4 year olds aren't jaded music critics:

I'm a nut, cluck cluck (tapping head with fist and making tongue clicking sound)

I'm a nut, cluck cluck

I'm a little acorn round

Fallen on the cold hard ground

SOmeone came and stepped on me

that is why I'm cracked you see

so i've gotten this one thrown at me by certain people when I'm trying to explain bitcoin. they don't actually focus any time on investing because they are busy being productive, helpful, sharing people.

Apart from judging their shallow depth of thinking, how is a good way to respond?

I even met a university coach who complained that the university was not adequately funding the rowing program. In his words:

"the university is the richest in the world and has a bunch of gold in a vault, but i need working boats and oars to train kids."

Is this what "love of money" is? when certain people (perhaps me) with sticky fingers just see it as a game to collect and not deploy in anything useful?

Oh I see. And the other one is " I'm a little acorn round, fallen on the cold,hard ground..."

I made this choice recently to fly a couple hours and drive a couple hours to see my great aunt, and it warped my whole perspective of time.

I spent 2 hours with great Aunt and reviewed her 98 years of life in 2 hours.

Someday some kid will hear my entire 84 years in the space of 84 minutes. actually I could probably describe entire decades in seconds.

900 "chariots of iron", a prophetess who dwelt under a palm tree, and the captain who wanted her help

Judges

4:2 And the LORD sold [Israel] into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan...

4:3 And the children of Israel cried unto the LORD: for he had nine hundred chariots of iron; and twenty years he mightily oppressed the children of Israel.

4:4 And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time.

4:5 And she dwelt under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.

4:6 And she sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedeshnaphtali, and said unto him, Hath not the LORD God of Israel commanded, saying, Go and draw toward mount Tabor, and take with thee ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun? 4:7 And I will draw unto thee to the river Kishon Sisera, the captain of Jabin’s army, with his chariots and his multitude; and I will deliver him into thine hand.

4:8 And Barak said unto her, If thou wilt go with me, then I will go: but if thou wilt not go with me, then I will not go.

4:9 And she said, I will surely go with thee: notwithstanding the journey that thou takest shall not be for thine honour; for the LORD shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman. And Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.

My partner had the brilliant metaphor of the natural gas pipelines in West Texas. There are giant fans that compress the gas into pipelines.

So for me:

NVDA/chips are the fan compressor companies

Cleanspark/miners are the fan operator companies

ANET/Internet stocks are pipes

BTC is magical infinitely expandable silo where natural gas is pumped.

MSTR is sophisticated "ownership" of part of that silo
