No one ever went to jail. But the times are changing. We'll see.
Seems that it's been running for decades.
Dems mistake was that they broke the silent pact and used the slush fund against the other arm of the mafia.
You better not miss in situations like this. But they did... Reps gonna demolish them now, and wash their complicit hands over it.
I love the intro point.
- If something is contradicting your thesis, then your thesis is not a correct one.
A fresh breath of clarity in the ever more confused world.
Definitely not your average good friend visit.
"Two pagers. One golden, one regular."
That's literally "Plata o plomo" (gold or lead)
Buy low, sell high. It's too simple grasp for the tradfi. That's their edge.
That's a low blow.
Let people enjoy their birthday parties. There's plenty of other time and space to critique the influencers and the algos.
Well, we got two weeks of being proud of the U. S. ...
Soon, US soldiers will do Israel's dirty work of loading up people in trains for forced departure.
Very disappointing.
who are “the Globalists”?
well, as an example, start with 7 former CIA directors all on the board of a single organization, which receives laundered tax dollars through USAID to train Associated Press journalists how to undermine Populist movements and leaders. Including in the US.

FTX was probably the same shithole. Actually, probably even worse.
CZ did us a huge favor by blowing it up.
Yup. Version - 1.1.15 (1261); forwarded all the info to the Fountain DMs. 🤙
Trump assassination would also launch open season for anyone suspected of being part of the Deep State. They aren't able to hide. Too risky.
I'm more concerned about some cartel terror campaigns, or some communist lunatics.
Which would serve as a very convincing precursor for Patriot Act 2.0. This time wrapped in good intentions, and AI.
Maybe it's worth looking at it closer here.
Today, I was more cautious about it.
- The app closed itself down while I kept the podcast paused for an hour or two
- I sit back in the car, open the app to continue to play something
- it starts with updating and downloading the nostr feed (unnecessary at that point; slows things down, and wastes the data
- I go back to the library. And without swiping down, it itself refreshes the library, and starts downloading all the new episodes, despite presetting the downloads for WiFi only... 🤨
- I think that's probably how I've been always wasting my mobile data in last months over the first few days of the month. I assume the nostr feed was just a marginal contribution to this.
- This started in December. I didn't have problems with it before.
- for now, I switched to only manual downloads, and it seems to respect that choice. ✅

Muddy tire is gonna slide on this like on a butter. And yea, I would bet it folds like a cardboard.
There's an incentive for the AI search engines to figure how to include the ads. They'll find the way eventually.
Relative to the world where anyone could reuse anyone else's code even for commercial purposes, having just the "source-viewable" option is placing obstacles to the entrpreneurial incentives.
Let's say you might have idea how to tweak Coldcard to make it a better product for some subset of the market, but it would take some time and money to achieve that. If you're not legally allowed to financially benefit from such new products, then you might as well just not do it, stick with your fiat job, or anything else.
On the other hand, there's similar argument as with the IP laws, that if Coinkite wouldn't have a way to protect their market position, they might have not invested their time to develop a Coldcard in the first place.
There's a ton of economic theory and real world case studies about these things, there's no chance anyone will ever settle the debates.
Imo, ultimately, open source will eat the world. But we won't get there without making some money somewhere in the meantime.
The most spicy question in the hardware wallet space 🙃
- Trezor was the first hw wallet, kept the code open source (FOSS)
- Coinkite (Coldcard) reused parts of the code to ship their own products, kept the code open source (FOSS)
- Foundation came in, took parts of Coldcard code, shipped their own products
-> Coinkite didn't like it (market competition, and sense of fairness)
-> Coinkite switched their licenses to source-viewable only. Not FOSS anymore (not permitting unrestricted use for commercial purposes by others)
-> Lots of discussion about the tradeoffs for the future implications to the Bitcoin ecosystem.
Double check if you're using the correct derivation path.
On the flip side, the Cold War hockey was the best hockey.
If only Canada had any competitive teams there 🙏
Last time they won the Stanley Cup was more than 30 years ago. And they think that they can beat US in the game of Economy and Geopolitics...
#FUTO #keyboard is such an improvement over the #OpenBoard.

Yup. Joe Rogan going on a decade of a radio silence after being this much into Bitcoin ...
*Andreas was on 3x times in 2014 (Jan, April, December). Since then mostly just rare funny mentions, and the last 4th Andreas appearance in Sep 2016.
Czech National Bank aready backpedaled the hype.

Czech National Bank’s goal is price stability. When we took office in July 2022, inflation was 17.5%. We brought it down to target. We are also diversifying reserves—gradually increasing gold holdings from 0% to around 5% and planning for 30% in equities. An asset under consideration is Bitcoin. It currently has zero correlation to bonds and is an interesting asset for a large portfolio. Worth considering. Right now, it’s only at the stage of analysis and discussion. The Bank Board decides, and no decision is imminent. Thoughtful analysis is needed.
Bitcoin has significant volatility, which makes it harder to take advantage of its current low correlation with other assets. That’s why I will ask our team on Thursday to further assess Bitcoin’s potential role in our reserves. Nothing more, nothing less.
The article is very accurate, including my statement that Bitcoin could one day be worth either zero or a huge amount. I highly recommend reading the full piece—FT journalist

Front squats are always killing me. Core, wrists, but especially the upper back. Can do just ~75% of the backsquats.
I guess that's why I should do more.
2 weeks ago, this guy said "How could a central bank trust this Bitcoin? No one has even seen its code."
He got trolled and schooled hard about it.
Maybe he learned some from it, but I doubt it's been enough to fully convince himself, and the majority of the voting members to buy in.
On the other hand, I can see that he might tempted to be forever remembered as The Esteemed And Brave central banker, who placed a little bet and made a history by retiring his nation. He's very much an ego guy, and former investment banker.
That's pretry much how I understood the Coracle's vision. We need many more buildings this.
I'm mostly looking for private (community-only) fb marketplace.
I chatted with it, and tried to do some light research. I was unimpressed. Felt similar to the existing models.
I guess the jaw dropping improvement is really more on the development costs side for now.
I'm awaiting for Calacanis to call for emergency bailouts of the Sillicon Valley VCs again.
