Great as always siggy. Should I do another "discuss this quote" this weekend?
Yes, please! That was an excellent first post. I hope you make it a regular thing.
Oh boy. I better get cracking. I owe Pub a post too.
Tomorrow or Monday is fine too. I know weekends are family time!
My wife and son are in Texas looking after my father in law after his heart surgery. They will be back in a few days. I have as much time as the little one allots me while she is distracted with other things. Haha.
I hope things turn out well. Heart care has come a long way. I have personal experience with it!
He is doing ok. Driving my wife a bit nuts so he must be feeling better. Haha.
Yes! We all need more practice thinking about things from a BTC -centric lens
I know it's early, but would be interested in a meta-commentary on how you put together this post. I'm fixated on these high-level SN-syntheses and how people do them.
Also, I think I said it before, but it's awesome, keep at it!
Thanks. That's a good idea. I'll start to put together my thoughts.
Just so you know, I like the way you provide direction to this territory without being didactic about it
Thanks very much.
Thank you for this newsletter. My vanity has attracted me and now I'm investigating the real men and women of letters!
Kinda reminds me of this Bitcoin thing.
Come for the greed and stay for the read!
Yes, you have my permission to GETS as Williams S. Burroughs would say, "Good Enough To Steal."
LFG readers and writers of books!
It's starting to grow. Can you keep up with the growth at this pace?
Dam, never thought my blogs would be worth to get recognize here, but thank you very much.
