In my opinion, Zuck is just spotting the trend now and trying to capitalize on it. But buddy, it’s too late.

If he had the balls he would’ve taken a stand in 2020. Instead his platform became the biggest censorship machine, serving as a puppet for the government and their woke agendas.

Now he’s trying to fit in, saying following 𝕏’s lead and cozying up to the Trump administration 😂

I left Facebook in 2012 and haven’t looked back. It adds zero value to my life.

Instagram is basically a soft porn app now. Most creators are young girls, OF models and tits, using clickbait and shock value for engagement.

better today than all last

month.

After 9 days on #nostr here's my honest opinion:

●I like:

- the #Christian #Bitcoineers community;

- that people fund #charity work.

●I don't like:

- part of the technical side of it;

- the bots.

How was the on-boarding as a #newbie and how does it feel to be here?

Getting started was decent since I was familiar with public and private #keys but, oh boy, did I have a hard time setting up relays (there should be some default ones in the beginning), figuring out why I couldn't post images or videos and so on. I also got nervous a couple of time when #zaps were not working due to the LN wallet issues.

On the community side, most people are awesome, smart, and they like to engage in constructive arguments. What I didn't like is when ai bots started to flood the comments, I then started to question everything here.

There are also #generous #philanthropists who funded the charity I started as an experiment. People #zapped over 64k sats for the homeless and I am forever grateful for their generosity ( 10k = 1 meal, 6 meals delivered until now and still have some sats to spend).

As a conclusion, I think the #nostr ecosystem has a lot of potential, I share the same values with it, but I still can't recommend it to my non-techy friends due to some security concerns I have and the resource consumption on my android with the daily #Amethyst app. What I did is recommend it to my techy friends.

What I like most here is the community and this is why I decided to stay, for the people following #dadstr, #Christian, #Jesus, #asknostr and #Bitcoin, for the people welcoming every #newbie under #introductions.

Overall, well done and thank you #nostr devs!

the reason you dont “get engagement” on nostr is because you aren’t engaging.

stop trying to manipulate people, and just talk to them.

The NFL Salary Cap was ~$34 million when it was introduced in 1994. Today the Salary Cap is ~$260 million.

Has the NFL Salary Cap outpaced inflation?

If you use CPI to calculate the 2024 value of $34 million 1994 dollars, the answer is a MASSIVE YES.

According to CPI, $34 million in 1994 dollars is equivalent to $72 million.

According to the government, the NFL is a massive success, however...

If we use the M2 money supply growth as the proxy for inflation, things look different.

Using M2 as a proxy for inflation, $34 million 1994 dollars is equivalent to $205 BILLION.

Nearly 10x the current salary cap.

Neither of these measures is a perfect proxy for money supply growth (inflation). No one knows how many dollars exist and more can be "printed" at any time.

That said, NFL players likely make less than their 1994 counterparts.

They just seem richer because the "non-rich" have gotten poorer by comparison in the last 30 years.

I make wine, not sense.
