Exponential growth is our secret weapon: not just for markets, but because states won’t spot the threat until it’s way too late. As Albert A. Bartlett said:
“The greatest shortcoming of the human race is our inability to understand the exponential function.”
We humans are notoriously bad at wrapping our heads around exponential growth, and luckily, politicians aren’t even our sharpest minds ;) Here are three classic riddles to prove it (sharing in case you haven’t seen them yet), because grasping exponentials might be the most underlearned lesson in history.
- Bacteria Doubling Riddle: A Petri dish starts with a smattering of bacteria. Every second, their numbers double. The dish fills completely after one minute. When was it half full?
- Paper Folding Riddle: Grab a sheet of paper and fold it in half. Then fold it again. If you could keep at it 50 times, how thick do you think it’d end up? ;)
- Chessboard Wheat Riddle: Perhaps the oldest tale of exponential growth hails from ancient India. Legend has it a king offered the chess inventor any reward for such a marvelous game. The inventor asked for one grain of wheat on the first square of the chessboard (64 squares total), two on the second, four on the third, and so on — doubling each time. How many grains at the end?

"So, please, look around and appreciate your fellow Monero Circular Economy pioneers. We’re the early birds. Support each other as the angry farmer (the state) starts hobbling the herd with desperate tricks."
Love this, it's an important message to be reminded about
The State wants total transparency into your personal finances & they will deploy the full force of their violence to stop anyone who stands in their way. Even if they didn't break any laws, like Samourai Wallet.

Many questioned why Samourai Wallet took the plea deal? When facing 25-years in prison + $237m forfeiture order + being barred from talking about his own intent in front of a jury + a judge who refused to hear the defense arguments = plea deal was the clear path forward.

Blocking knots connections and using pandoTX to process tx's over soroban 
https://blog.ronindojo.io/ronindojo-update-v2-3-0/
the biggest new thing in this update is the introduction of Soroban, a distributed peer-to-peer network that your Dojo can leverage for a number of use-cases. First use-case available in Dojo is PandoTX.
When you send a transaction through Dojo, it will not be immediately pushed to the Bitcoin Network but it will be sent to a random node on the Soroban network which will push it to the Bitcoin Network. This also means that your Soroban node will receive other people's transactions and will push these to the Bitcoin Network. This further obfuscates the origin of a transaction because the maker of a transaction does not have to be connected with a Bitcoin node that relays the transaction to the network.
...
Since the unfortunate demise of KYCP (and OXT on which stood), there hasn't been a proper way to review transactional privacy and linkability of inputs-outputs. This now changes with the release of Boltzmann tool.
Boltzmann (developed by LaurentMT and Samourai) has been integrated into RoninUI which means any user can now locally analyze a transaction and see entropy, number of combinations and linkability matrix. While this tool is right now very far from capabilities that KYCP and OXT had, we hope to add more useful heuristics in the future.
Shout out to the ronin dojo team!
I will argue that as far as animal cooking fats go, ghee is the most versatile to use taste-wise (not to mention it’s the healthiest).
It pairs super well with meats, eggs, pancakes or other types of pastries you cook on the pan, and any vegetable you would sauté on the stove top.
And even when looking at the health stats, you are better off frying with ghee as well. Granted, you will want to do that with a regular, not 100% grass fed ghee to not have it be the most expensive fried food you’ve ever cooked.
If you’re looking to give ghee a try, or want to start purchasing your monthly ghee jar with Bitcoin, head to https://greatghee.com/ and grab some!
Thoughts on ghee versus tallow?
