You won't believe this, but I just found out you can get cash from your car in the U.S., like a drive-thru. I've never seen that in Europe!

Tether just released its quarterly attestation for Q2 2025.
Highlights as of 30th June 2025:
  • 157.1B total issued USDt, end of Q2 2025.
  • 162.5B total assets/reserves, end of Q2 2025.
  • 5.47B excess reserves, on top of the 100% reserves in liquid assets that back all issued tokens, end of Q2 2025.
  • 127B+ in US treasuries (direct + indirect exposure), end of Q2 2025.
  • 4.9B net profits, in Q2 2025 (5.7B YTD)
  • 13B USDt supply increase, in Q2 2025 (20B increase YTD).
USDt growth is accelerating, leading the market with a 100B delta with the second largest stablecoin.
In the upcoming quarter Tether will focus on a new venture in the U.S, to build a best-in-class product suite (stablecoins plus more), designed for the specific, already highly efficient, market.
Thank you very much for the continued support ❤️

Has anyone suggested a tool for saving draft posts? Or does it already exist and I just don't know how to use it?
reply

There's an open issue here: https://github.com/stackernews/stacker.news/issues/216
Currently, I think one local draft is saved for posts based on whatever you left it off as, and the latest text you input into a comment box is saved
But there's no real way to save multiple drafts, or to manage your drafts.

I use this all the time. If you use SN in multiple tabs, you can kinda save several drafts...although they are gone if I close the tab.

I mostly just use Notepad++ for drafts. It's all markdown anyway.

Notepad++
Unfortunately, Windows only.
I’m using Obsidian locally to draft posts, but when I’m on another machine, I can’t access or save my drafts.

The anarchists are not promising anything to anyone. The anarchists only want people to be conscious of their own situation and seize freedom for themselves.

I think Bailey took it pretty well too, never really lashing out or appearing to get angry.
I don't agree with his position on "enable as much building on top of Bitcoin as I can, even if it's scams", but I respect him for being willing to come on your show, saying his point of view, and not getting mad.

Happiness Journal 31/7/25
I am given the most challenging Primary 5 class for Form Teacher-ship. Little terrors, some of my colleagues might call them.
Today, I just sauntered to the parade square a few minutes before recess and started my countdown. “5…4…3…2…1” I announced, and my students hurriedly sat down like clockwork.
Shiok.
This reminds me of how I was unceremoniously given the most challenging Secondary 3 class in my first year in NorthLight. It took time, but I had them eating out of my hands eventually. Like the Pier Piper leading his merry men to greater heights.
In other news, only 5 students combined these sentences correctly:
Furniture is an uncountable noun. Fur is an uncountable noun too.
I seriously didn’t expect them not to be able to derive the answer: Both furniture and fur are uncountable nouns.
Sigh. Looks like I need to show them simpler sentences tomorrow:
Bacteria multiplies quickly. Laughter also multiplies quickly.

This is a 2-D projection of semantic embeddings for a bunch of words related to college majors. I was doing an internal presentation to my department about some research i've been doing with embeddings and wanted to demonstrate how embeddings work, since it's not common knowledge yet. It was interesting that mathematics turns out in the center!
I didn't do Bitcoin for this haha. Wonder where it'd show up. My guess is it'd show up near finance / accounting / economics.
