Mushrooms have been absent around here since last summer & fall (extremely dry). Normally can find hundreds of winter chantrelles & several golden chants, but nothing so far :(((
Yes!
This is a similar but very different L3 implementation for privacy on lightning (plus you can do 🤯 things like offline tx): https://asats.io/
Being worked on by a Canadian too
Checked out the status of the wildfire we fought 50m from our place last fall (😱 - dicy but we had 2 hydrants we could access)
Hopes to find morels (I even purreed some old ones in a blender & spread the spores a few weeks ago), but no dice for now 🤞🏼
New book dropped today
Last year I started digging into the IMF and World Bank a little bit and was surprised that there were so few approachable books on the topic
This led me to keep digging, which led to a massive rabbit hole of archived essays and reports, interviews, and discontinued books going back 70 years all the way to the creation of the institutions at the end of WWII
What I started to realize as I learned — which became the thesis of the book — is that the IMF and World Bank actually exploit poor countries, they do not help them
This has mostly been achieved by working with dictators and corrupt officials to plunge emerging market countries into debt they can never pay back
Western lenders get paid back plus interest, and benefit from a massive economic engineering where entire societies are re-architected to suit the needs of rich nations instead of achieving industry and sovereignty
The Bank and Fund are known as charitable or maybe as flawed but necessary
In reality their operations are straightforwardly neocolonial, and they help subsidize the way of life in the West by depressing wages and looting resources in the global south
The book was a huge wake up call for me, I hope you can find it useful too

There's a place I hike sometimes that the film industry likes. I've walked through the sets for: Shogun, Resident evil, Altered carbon, Percy Jackson, Supernatural, Fire Country & others! But it sucks when they're actually filming (cause I can't hike)! This is the current set:
It's always funny to me when they run electeic cables right on the saltwater beach.
