And there is nothing stopping my casino bank from continuing to bear interest on my deposits... as long as they feel like it instead of rug pulling.
I still think deflation could stabilize enough to allow profitable loans again, maybe in our lifetimes, but halal loans sound more compatible in general with a world where there's a deflationary currency
Like, with no party running the circle of monetary flow, no debt system can really be stable
No because she's not a central bank so even if she's guessing right she can't guarantee profits for herself and her cronies by changing it again on a whim
If I'm getting what she's saying
Not the way things are headed. It's simple statistics, everyone is moving out of New York because it's becoming such a police state and corporations are taking over. If you graph the trend out into the future it projects that the last 100 people in Manhattan will be a tribe of NYPD officers answering to a mayor chat bot that has them drink Kool aid after all the server racks have been moved to the top floors for sea level rise
It's current year, I'm reporting you to the FBI
Sorry but if humans are dying out we're gonna have algorithms printing money and posting new all time high trades on those tickers on the outsides of the buildings on wall street just like when life signs could be detected in new york city
Couldn't deflation get below 20% someday though? I'd imagine it stabilizing someday to deflate by as much as gold and silver inflate, maybe times two for lost keys, that's still probably less than 10% a year
What if you got kissed on the cheek by one tho
The core disagreement between the two of you seems to be over how deflationary Bitcoin is under a Bitcoin standard
To you, the Bitcoin standard hasn't started until we finish the wave of adoption driving value to increase
To Laeserin, we're already in the early days of the Bitcoin standard
I think aside from her moral beliefs, Laeserin's mathematical point is you can't denominate loan interest in Bitcoin because it's so deflationary and you can't really expect profit on loans under the early years of a Bitcoin standard for the same reason. Equity investment might be profitable but lending becomes a charitable act while there's such a deflationary currency available. Anyone borrowing 10 BTC will have a hard time returning 10 BTC while each Satoshi is gaining value faster than the rest of the economy's assets.

Building on the simplicity of that, you know the little popup you get from the burger menu on each post in satellite? The one that lets you copy the nevent ID or get a direct link or whatever. Another link could just be added in there to a more feature rich client or a hub like njump
Sorry for the delayed reply, my phone died when I first tried to reply and it took me a few minutes to retype
Markdown -
Basically what's used on reddit. Also when you see a readme.md file on GitHub or whatever the .md means it's in markdown format. It's used in a bunch of places, you might already know how to use it.
Very simple in its core version. Other versions can add and remove parts but most versions are cross compatible with the famous version from reddit for ease of use.
No words used as formatting, only non-letter symbols like brackets and stuff. It doesn't care what languages you do or don't know, it's only biased on favor of people whose keyboards can easily access symbols like a parentheses or an exclamation point.
Wikitext -
Used on Wikipedia's MediaWiki software which is also the basis of others like the "fandom wiki."
Complex and feature-rich in its core version, with sidebars and tables and stuff like that, plus other versions being able to add more features. The Wikipedia version isn't usually cross-compatible with others because it has so many extensions, but it's one-way compatible where the core version can always be copied and pasted because you can only add functionality to the core version, not remove any from it. Even some articles on Wikipedia are simple enough to not use any extensions and be compatible both directions.
It does use words and abbreviations of words as part of its formatting. This means implementations must either support translated versions of the standard itself in all of the thousands of languages on earth, or at least the most used ones, or be flagrantly biased in making the standard easier to learn and use for people who use English.

I don't know what the hell is going on. It's complicated and has sidebars in its core version and it's extensible and language-centric like wikitext, but it's not wikitext. People already know how to use parts of it but I don't know anywhere it's been used. It's coming for me and it has a knife.
