Já que tem muitas pessoas chegando agora no nostr, uma dúvida que surge. Quantas pessoas entendem o valor do #Bitcoin para a liberdade monetária e do #Nostr para a liberdade de expressão? O que vocês pensam sobre? Gostaria muito de saber isso, se puderem responder.

I really enjoy my #gamesir x2 pro but it's a little cramped if I'm playing anything more than older games. The new g8+ looks nice because it has the wings and Bluetooth means it won't stress my usb-c port. It lacks clicky buttons but the #easysmx m15 is cheaper and has the same wings. I also saw one of those dedicated android gaming handhelds that had a silicone wing grips for it but it's more costly. Plus stock #android. So many choices. Wish I could just try some out first. #gaming

Pessoal falando de VPN para continuar usando o X, não seria mais fácil todo mundo pular pra cá???

the damus relay is rarely offline, maybe your network is blocking it for some reason?

Also, i don’t see why this is an issue with damus. You don’t need to use the damus relay.

The complicated aspect about the Social Security system in the United States is that it was falsely marketed.

It's called an "entitlement" because people pay into it and are supposed to get it back like a pension, regardless of whether they are rich or poor when they retire. And so the Baby Boomer generation views any cuts to their social security as a rugpull, basically. It's not insurance or charity; it's an entitlement.

However, although it was marketed as like an entitlement/pension, that's not how the math worked out in practice. And it's because population growth is slowing. It was based on ponzi math, assuming that every generation will be bigger than the one that came before it. But the Baby Boomer generation was huge.

In addition, when Social Security was created, the retirement age was set near the average life expectancy. Many people would not live long enough to collect it, and most would collect it for a handful of years. Only a small minority of outliers would work for like 40 years and then live off social security for like 20+ years. But then over the decades, life expectancy increased by like 15 years, so the default assumption is indeed that someone can work for 40 years and then have 20+ years of retirement, even though the amount they pay into it doesn't really mathematically cover that. It's not designed for that en masse.

And so Baby Boomers had like a 3.5 worker-to-retiree ratio to support in their peak earnings years, while Millennials will have more like a 2.5 worker-to-retiree ratio or less to deal with. Which means they get a worse deal. Many Millennials don't even think they'll get it at all, despite paying into it.

That breaks up the social contract and sets up inter-generational political conflict. "Fourth Turning" stuff.

It's a big reason why "defined benefit" plans are inherently unstable; they rely on being able to predict the future.

And it's also a big reason why, when speaking about deficits, nothing stops this train.
