Uff... really?

Bitcoin is very strong in Argentina. He would certainly get a lot of opposition for that. I hope he will not impose any one currency on the people. At least that would be the libertarian approach.

That's the thing. Whenever I see a "political compass"

I fail to understand why it's a square. The further south you go, the less meaning does "left" or "right" have. This should be a triangle.

Milei won in Argentina.

When Milei won the primaries in August, the national currency took a 20% hit.

The news were ...

How does the pesos react now? 20% again?

So far it's down 1% on the weekly.

Now why is it down? Is it because people think Milei is bad for the economy or because he's bad for their central bank's tokens?

Yeah, let's see how the Bukele tale ends. At least he has orange pilled a lot of people and orange coin being unconfiscatable is certainly not good for a dictatorship, so if things turn bad, he shot his own feet.

For the record, no milei for Chileans neither.

"far right" ... yeah, sure, cause in a communist mind, abolishing half the state's institutions and lowering government's involvement in all aspects of life is the opposite of what they want and the opposite of communism is "far right". Simple as that.

I listened in to some Argentinian TV station's live stream and they talked about all the senators not being on Milei's side. Is that an issue for his agenda? I guess for new laws he would need them but for closing offices?

Damn it! I didn't mean to "like" this. Why would the CIA spend resources on a country that goes bankrupt every odd year anyway? The established politicians do the job well enough. There is no need for a Milei.

That sounds like a silly idea and not in the sense that statists call his other ideas silly.

Looks fine on nostrudel.

When you put it that way it sounds like Sam was the template for ChatGPT itself.

Feeling better already?

;)

I would have appreciated if your criticism had been presented a bit less destructive. Your issue had not occurred to the devs and you immediately called it - us - dystopian. I guess not all are reading nostr drama every day as fiatjaf had added everybody who wasn't vehemently against being added back then. I see no huge issue with some devs remaining private but I guess I would if I were not one of them with visibility into all the list, so I wouldn't mind kicking those who don't turn their profiles public. Most likely that's only people who don't use their privilege anyway.

What? Who zapped whom for what?

By building tools that are not about nostr.

Am I the only one seeing an ostrich looking at its back?

Rabble's hands are tiny ;)

My current favorite. But a bug had me switch to Snort just now.

You don't shoot the messenger neither! Apparently I'm the only one working in the open ;)

I'm reluctant to share a picture of all the members even though it's pretty clear who most of them are but some might have been added and never cared to do anything with that privilege so ... lets give them a chance to step down before pushing harder.

I think you are shooting way above the target here. Nothing is dystopian about the members and "private" might just be the default that the others never cared to change. Give it some days.

Ok, I was surprised why you singled me out but apparently I'm the only one who's set to be a public member.

nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 could we decide on a policy that all members have to be public or lose their membership? As mentioned elsewhere, apathy might play a role in not jumping when nostr:npub1melv683fw6n2mvhl5h6dhqd8mqfv3wmxnz4qph83ua4dk4006ezsrt5c24 freaks out.

I remember I was surprised when I was added as a member after very little contributions but took it as fiatjaf's high-trust way of just adding people to get the job done. I did read all the stuff for quite some while but now it's just too much and I rarely contribute at all. Might as well be removed as a member.
