It requires some process to determine where a particular person is from, including if they are from here or elsewhere.

Think Bic will give us a bulk discount on em? ;)

I just replaced optipng with oxipng in hopes of better and faster compression for PNG files when uploading to nostr.build or blossom.band/media . Let me know if you run into any issues, but make sure that your source PNG is good. When you use free uploads, we will convert PNG to JPG if it lacks alpha channel (transparency). Otherwise you should be GTG!

It would be interesting to see a chart comparing frequency of zaps per user, mean and average zap amounts, and bitcoin price over time. I have a hypothesis that zaps become less frequent and smaller in amount whenever Bitcoin’s price moves significantly up or down, and more frequent and higher in amount when the price is holding relatively steady for a while.

Lived most of my life with migraines (which usually lasted a few days), photophobia, oily face, and inflammation. Those were the most obvious symptoms I could tell. I remember not being able to go out during school recess because I found the sunlight blinding.

A loud noise, a bright light, or strong smell, would all immediately cause a strong migraine to set in and stick for hours.

After eliminating sugar (and highly processed foods) and going on a low-carb diet about 2 years ago, all of those symptoms are pretty much gone and I feel much healthier overall.

Well this is the best email I've received so far this year.

I will be responding.

Everybody is a bitcoiner. Some just don’t know it yet.

Should I make a thumbnail every time I release a version?

Priced in gold, the stock market is at about the same level now as it was in 1929. Therefore, stock market gains have been entirely due to monetary expansion over this nearly 100 year time scale, though this chart is probably not dividend corrected. That ratio though changes depending on the boom/bust of the business cycle. The implication here is that the market is still significantly over valued in hard asset terms so that gold/btc should do a lot better than the S&P. This does not mean gold/BTC will go up necessarily, only that it will drop less than the market on dips and rise faster than the market on upswings.
