Can't see job destruction as a result of AI.
I think a variation of Jenson's paradox applies, where instead of say, AI destroying the virtual assistant's role, or a junior developer role, it would instead make the costs of such services lower, and therefore more in demand.
More expected for existing roles, at lower prices, but a resultingly bigger scope of activity and net employment.
In new business ideas, privacy conflicts with contract law.
You either build something that doesn't need arbitration processes, or you build something less private.
Insurance products could never be non-KYC without risking more third party risks in contract performance. A nym can't sue.
Totally fair for a project to say "as private as possible", and explain when privacy is sacrificed - why.
Tradeoffs all the way down.
Trying to stay humble but....
been there! youre on the path now though! and still so early!
Tax is more like 95% of your life.
income tax
capital gains tax
sales tax
duties/tariffs
road/property/local municipality taxes
death tax
stamp duty
corporation tax
Then the tax you pay in the price of goods where all the above taxes drop into the price of the good/service from businesses (payroll etc).
Then the fees and fines related to correct payments (accountancy, tax advice). And the time spend doing it.
and then inflation for the 5% left.
We're farmed. About 1% left of life after all those layers are applied.
Take a dollar for a walk through the system and you'll have about 1 cent left after 2 cycles.

Beta Bond. License to Check your Privilege.
The fiat mind simply cannot comprehend.
A little insight after a conversation last night (not initiated by me), is that someone new, looking at these "high prices" really struggles to accept "who is still buying at these prices".
This is what happens when your environment has only ever had elastic supply.
The truth is that 90% of Bitcoin have already been bought by less than 0.1% of the total possible users.
It's not running out of buyers - it's running out of sellers.
was it only the corn that went down? Or all the shitcoinery too?

On NIP 26...
Can you delegate a signature to another user??
Or is this NIP only to allow the same user to sign with an alternative keypair of their own?
Thankyooo
(Will zap all good faith answers)
Quickest way to break a normie brain is saying tax is theft.
Nothing gets it done so quickly and completely.
Farking glorious to read.

Time spent defining the problem is worth 10x that of building the solution.
Don't ever mistake motion for action.
Must be one of those Pyramid Schemes... 🤣 🤣 🤣

"Hey Ben!
Been ages bro! Hows it going? Seen Bitcoin? Is it a good time to buy then? I found a guy on YouTube who does really good trading lessons, loads of followers, he makes 100k an hour from his yacht, do you know him?
Heard Ripple is the new one to buy - thoughts? We still need to get my coins off the exchange but i want a HWW that holds DonkeyVisionToken - which one is the best for that?
When are you back in
Question - when you buy bitcoin where does the money go? Into the blockchain? What if the internet, power and water goes down and there's a nuclear war - does bitcoin still work? Still feels risky to me? Thoughts?
I have an old coinbase account - are they still good?
Thoughts?
Thoughts?
Got any thoughts ben?
Thoughts please
Think for me, but i'll prob ignore you b/c the mrs doesn't get it.
Thoughts?"

yeh im not sure food being a bigger part of the budget is a good thing. Wet streets dont cause rain.
Food getting more expensive is signs of a dying/regressing system.
not the same as food quality falling with price.
Poor food is a form of shrinkflation. But lower costs of quality food (reducing the amount spend as a % of income) does not mean that food is poor quality, or that having more wealth after youve covered your needs is a bad thing.
This was what started the Arab Spring at 30% or more, btw...
In America. Getting a bit scary.
Extremely bullish on NOSTR.
Even regular users sometimes miss the future potential outside of social content.
NOSTR lets you sign anything.
In life - think about what needs a signature.
Bitcoin fixed this for money
NOSTR fixes this for all other matters of signature.
Cat pics, podcasts, articles and dank memes are barely the start of the start of what this will do.
ONWARDS me hearties!
The bank runs continue...
Stay humble and stack sats.
