Generational wealth
Saying Trump and Elon were going to try and replicate was a kickass moment. Please let the US government not go bankrupt and get the debt under long term control.
The company’s core product is Nyx, a reusable capsule that can be launched from rockets into space carrying passengers and cargo.
I hate when they write "can" when it should be "planned" or "will be." Maybe I should be thankful that they try to mislead stupidly. 🤷♂️
My favorite metaphor is of a theater. The theater has has a stage and audience members who can be brought up on stage in an instant. Our attention is what's on stage while the audience members represent all of the other little thought networks which are listening in their own way to what's going on, not just on stage but in the audience. In this metaphor sensory data is like a screen that's up on stage. Not sure how physical actions fit into this but call it a WIP.
Edit: I should add that Hume and Chomsky each touch on a theater model but I wasn't satisfied with their models so this is the result.
I can understand why... daring/disrespectful to ask Mike if he's ready for more. Thanks for the background.
I'll always hold Tyson dear in my heart but watching him reminded me of Biden and the geriatriarchy. The position clutching is largely fueled by an overobsession with celebrity.
Felt like amateur hour with open mics and unnecessarily long shots of Serrano's cut. Was nice to see Rosie Perez though. Loved her in White Men Can't Jump. The ring interviewer was pretty belligerent.
That was pretty cool. The announcers and production was a lot of douchery but it was a trip seeing them in the ring.
Saylor has arranged the menu, the venue, the seating. and the date as he lets the convertible note funds chill in his account until it's time.
Last year I went through and watched every old boxing match of heavyweights like Tyson and Ali. My impression was the great knockout moments were few and far between.
Mostly it's a grind hence the phrase, "going the distance."
I'd love for Tyson to catch Paul and put him down and if anything interesting is going to happen it's probably that. Otherwise it's a short fight so I'm prepared to be disappointed as its called by decision for a less-gassed Paul.
The people still on reddit are the ones who will tolerate the platform being locked down API-wise and all the subs taken over by admins. It was good for a time. Now it seems I need to go to like five places to get an overall sense of what's going on and like the forum days I don't mind it.
I mostly appreciated the basic algorithm of reverse chronological plus last bump time on forums but also liked things more compartmentalized. That did make it easier to forget about one though if you didn't need to visit it enough.
I would add to courage that motivation essential in doing the work whether that's technical or mental as far as research and critical thinking. Each of us is motivated differently. Some want security, to protect against debasement and poverty, others want to get rich, and others have a wider vision of a life that maximizes optionality. What better way to achieve freedom than to reduce attachments to place, legal and financial systems. You are free to interact with each when it makes sense but the majority of your life is private and self-determined.
Didn't it get hacked? That plus cycles I think led to lulls in which a new venue saw growth into each next bubble. Reddit I think carried the torch at least during the blocksize war.
I'm conservative about Bitcoin. I don't believe the full implications of taproot have been realized. I don't buy the arguments that change is needed. In every one I see something off about the motivation or reasoning. The only way to trust a system like this with generational wealth is to slow way the fuck down.
