Who's heard that Terrance Howard episode of Rogan?

I was going to try and explain, but figured I would botch the job.

It's what allows Block stream's jade to use a pin on the device to securely unlock your private key. You can find some other explanations on YouTube. they were helpful for me to understand. personally, I've chosen to use it the jade as a stateless signing device, but that's just me.

Sparrow is fantastic. SeedSigner is nice, but they've gotten pricey to build. block stream Jade is still pretty inexpensive to purchase and you can use it as a stateless device for signing similar to SeedSigner.

Using their blind oracle is also nice and super convenient to use.

You should really get some help. Any person that talks this way is not a man and has obviously never been in any level of conflict, let alone armed conflict.

You're a silly little person that hides behind the keyboard because they have no life, no life experience, and no significant other to love.

You seethe like a real life meme. It is funny.

But it's sad. Jesus loves you.

Our media calendar is starting next month: podcasts and long-form blog posts. The details of what we're working on will be much clearer as those emerge. For now I'll say: it's a peer to peer, encrypted, permissionless network of purely functional personal servers. A location/cloud-agnostic personal VM spread across as many machines as you'd like with automatic persistence of all events.

An early use case I'm excited about is trivial-to-set-up, zero maintenance personal Nostr relays that run forever and are available to you anywhere.

Something about what you're describing reminds me of Ghost in the Shell.

Basically a VM that exists everywhere and I'd assume uses a private key similar to nostr?

Definitely following the project, man.🤙

The wizardry of tech always amazes me. It really is like magic. If you can imagine it, you can build it.

It's the ultimate form of expression, IMHO. I do data conversions. Not as flashy as software development, but I always get a kick out of flipping data around like it's a rubix cube. It's nerd stuff... but it pays the bills.

"You are acting like a liberal"... forgive my mistake. And what research should I have done before asking which opinion of the two you are indicating when you say "listen to Israeli's".

is it not a fair question to ask, which Israeli's are you referring to? Is that low-Iq?

Do I need to visit a region when asking you about what you are talking about?

The anti-war position of going "scorched earth" is also entertaining, but is definitely in line with your "anti-war except those guys" position. at least your consistent. I'm sure youre all for "freedom of speech, except that speech" as well. but maybe you're not as consistent as I'd hope. who knows.

I mean honestly, you're all over the place with the mental gymnastics, but call me the clown. you definitely live in a mental circus and I've been entertained. 👏👏

Good show.

I love that you keep coming back with such hatred. it's truly a sight to behold, and I've never been called liberal before... you're making me blush.

if this is how you react to someone asking a question about "Which Israeli's are you talking about", Id love to see you at an anti-war rally... you know, like the ones that have happened in Jerusalem or Tel Aviv.

I don't even have an opinion on the matter. But the vitriol that you spew for me acknowledging that not every Israeli feels the same way about this war just fascinates me. The fact that you feel any race, nation or creed should all feel the exact same way sounds kind of... might I dare say... Racist. As if an entire nation should be so one dimensional that they should all agree with nostr:npub1ugnq57hn8va6xqr5zywy2eunem6c624583vkt0dmv40ep7tnnxkqrr898l or they are #overprivileged and #dumncunts.

Truly fascinated by your thought process.

that dude is wild, lol. so fun to keep around. do you man. not everyone needs to create a homestead. My only point was that anyone could and it doesn't take anywhere near the effort that people think. It's doable.

Yes, division of labor is a net good.

You never did mention what you're working on. any links you care to share?

Anytime brother. I'm sure there will be plenty you can teach me down the road.

when you say demographics, do you mean the one child policy disaster?

And yes, agreed. they gave a number of problems when viewed through the eyes of traditional banking, but that's why I question. Do they even care? Seems their game is different because if the Chinese are anything, it's certainly not dumb. I genuinely don't know, but the macro fascinates me.

Does the collapse of these sectors really affect anything other than global investments in China?

so all Israelis feel the exact same way then huh. Every single Israeli is anti war... got it.

just good soldiers following orders then. no feeling of biblical or historical right to the land?

All of the IDF is ready to just lay down arms then? Every last one, huh. Come on dude. who's the clown?

could be way wrong... but it seems China has done two impressive moves. First they weakened their currency to make it attractive to manufacturers internationally, and then put tariffs in place so that they can maintain an economy built for the Chinese, by the Chinese. I think that's what they're un-interested in the low profit margins. I have nothing to base that on other than observation, but I think that's their goal.

Conversely, we built a system for Wall Street at the expense of our own people. We' been eroding our middle class for 30 years (at least). We've hidden that fact through productivity advancements in tech and cheap Chinese goods... it's getting mighty close to being time to pay the piper... The US is in trouble with the current set-up. It's always small business that solves this problem.

But how do you create that industry unless it's nurtured internally and protected by tariffs? The problem that the US has fallen into is that it's left it's people behind in pursuit of cheap labor on the global market.

This makes sense from an international business perspective, but what do you do with the people that have been made obsolete and have an ever increasing gap between inflation and real wages? That's the model that has brought the US into it's debt spiral.

Only way out is for the US economy to mirror China in that regard. Build a US economy for the US people and balance the wage growth with inflationary pressures. When that happens the rest sorts itself out because the relationship between goods and income maintain.

Bottom line, rebuilding a middle class is the only way out for the US. Tariffs are the only effective way of getting there. Anything short of that is a daily rug pull on the middle class.
