There are certain laws of nature that need to be understood and used rather than denied.

Struggling with porn? Don’t install spyware on your device (eg, https://youtu.be/tBwX1PQMEhw)%E2%80%A6just have more sex.

Struggling to have more sex? That’s kinda the point.

As far as reproductive strategies, women invest years (at a minimum) when successful. While men can spend years with a woman to raise offspring, another strategy is to spend minutes with many women. These two strategies are at the core of male/female relations. She needs him to prove he’s willing to invest in her for the long haul.

Biden gets fired but he still gets a paycheck for 6 months. Clearly they live by different rules.

Ever wonder how shitty currencies stick around?

People need to transact frequently to survive. And because of this need, humans will adapt to transacting in ever increasing currency amounts for daily survival, even if they need wheelbarrows to move around their cash.

More US dollars are coming. The only question is “how will they be distributed?”

US law forbids deficit from financing social security, but money can be borrowed to pay for Medicare/Medicaid. So some of that new money will go in to health care. Some will probably go in to war industry.

The feds could purchase assets as a means of distributing more dollars…buying a bunch of gold or bitcoin seems the most unlikely to me though…the powers that be don’t have much of either.

The reason we elect old people to run the country isn’t just accumulated wisdom or experience. When they’re done, they fade away much faster than young people.

Take a look at the PE ratio of NVIDIA. Even the forward looking ratio is 50 to 1. That means it’ll be 50 years of next years earnings to break even (if only counting earnings). Let’s say they do better and earnings turn out to be 5x the projection. You’re still counting on a fantastic decade of performance.

That worked. User signup is weird. Shouldn’t you just ask me to provide an npub and challenge me to sign a simple message with it?

How the system works is the point of the system.

You think healthcare is broken? That’s by design. Too many financial interests invested in keeping patients and care providers from efficiently interacting.

The weight of $1M dollars worth of gold is higher than 10,000 $100 bills. 28.5 pounds / 12.9 kg vs. 22 lbs / 10 kg

lol, that’s exactly what motivated my post and the sad fact I was silently lamenting.

Maybe AI can let us get back to writing real medical notes. You can have the real view of the H&P and the bullshit billing view all facilitated by AI.

Could be. The proper setup for a wallet is self custody with passive bitcoin chain sync via #blockstream satellite.

People will learn privacy the hard way.
