In fairness the Jetsons assumed we'd have a lot more nuclear power in use by now.
Never mind all the things the Jetsons said we'd have by 2062. Only 38 years left for sassy cleaning robots and flying cars to reach our houses in the sky...
The question us, how do you know when the money printer is on when most of the money is generated in the private banking markets, and is affected by a lot more than just US central bank policy?
Is there a reason to think the carry trade is unwound? And if it isn't, is there a reason to think it unwinding rapidly wouldn't result in deleveraging as people rush for dollars to pay off their Yen liabilities?
To say nothing of China.

I'm glad that the third party vote is a protest vote or I'd be furious at her drawing up the antiZionist vote away from Chase Oliver.
Jamie Dimon, meanwhile, predicted 'worse than a recession' is coming.
My money's not on the words of a politician. Especially a globalist politician.
Amazon employees blast Andy Jassy’s RTO mandate: ‘I’d rather go back to school than work in an office again’
?w=2048
Some Amazon employees have already changed their status on LinkedIn to #opentowork as they openly search for more flexible jobs.

Working in the office is a massive productivity killer. Wonder how long it'll take big data to notice...
That may be their hope. Gotta wonder just how many Latino Catholics are proponents of abortion though. Or how many fleeing communism are quick to vote for it back in.
There was for awhile a push to bring in the Latino vote to the GOP but it seems to have been back burnered under Trumpism, or at least deprioritized. Even without the active push their voting patterns don't tend to be so one dimensional as the Dems might prefer.
After Saturday I can finally check off 'take part in a mosh pit at a wedding' from my bucket list.
Mischief Brew definitely belongs at more weddings. #Punk
I have no hate for Gentoo but Slackware works just fine and always had the best sysvinit set up around. If Pat ever gives it up Gentoo (or a derivative) would likely be my only option before jumping to a *BSD.
I like their writing anyway. Gibson's one dimensional Democrat politics on Twitter tend to give me a different opinion. But I listen to black metal and am used to separating art from the artist.
Whatcha readin? In the middle of far too many right now myself; probably need to actually finish one or two in the near future. Against the Gods has been a fascinating one about the history of risk management -- a time before probability theory made for some very weird methods of gambling.
Perry Mehrling's Fischer Black and the Revolutionary Idea of Finance has been an information packed leisurely read as well, as his writing usually is.
Though realistically Ubik by Philip K Dick is most likely the one I'll hit the back cover of first.
Probably based on which relays you have, or what NIPs they support, or what the clients implement.
Beyond my pay grade in any case.
With the bot count over there? Probably equivalent.
Meanwhile, Twitter just hit 70,000 Lyn Alden accounts.
I definitely do. William Gibson, Neal Stephenson, Neil Gaiman, Alan Moore, Grant Morrison, Daniel Suarez, Philip K. Dick.
The only female novelist I think I've read was JK Rowling. And it was pretty meh.
Meawhile my wife reads a lot of female novelists; mostly young adult fantasy stuff. So while it's not normative, it does seem possible that it is normal, statistically speaking.
Looking forward to you breaking the pattern that I only just realized I have.
Developers typically build on borrowed money. Debasement robs savers, but it does so to reward borrowers, who pay off their debts with less value than their original liability was worth. If anything leaving gold should have helped.
More likely it's due to excess government spending and central planning distorting the economy with misallocation of resources. Which, in fairness, did also lead to abandoning the gold standard.
Once the bombs started dropping from planes I suspect the push to build ornate stonework dwindled. Especially when buildings needed to get replaced quickly all at once.
Linux did turn lame on MOST distros, thanks to systems and the general degeneracy of Lennart Poettering, so I see how that arc might happen. And the BSD's are fine but not really the most polished as a desktop experience. As far as I'm concerned though Apple is still the Fischer Price of technology.
Slackware is still true to form and I don't see any reason to switch.
Brave will give you BAT for viewing acceptable ads, and block the other ads.
Also, if a website is going to not support any major browser out there, it's Safari. Not as bad as it perhaps once was but it's the number one browser I see issues with doing customer support.
Do what works for you of course but that seems like pertinent information to consider.
Price up is great, if you're looking to sell or spend. It'll go up in time -- it's deflationary in nature after all. Not sure I share the enthusiasm for rushing it. The uptrend is at least motivating for walking more with the sMiles app and finding other ways to stack sats though.
