Day # 11 POD (Proof of Donation)

I got late to post it and in India it's 14th today. The last I donated was on 12th according to IST but SN runs on a different time zone, so it's still that I don't need to worry about losing my streak. 😊

Yep that's it.

I can see the reason behind it, really thoughtful design, but the visual experience is a bit strange, or maybe not used to it yet. 🤔
How about " your xx stacked xx sats " changed into SN yellow ( now it's in green, maybe you can even play around with the color, let's say more than 1k is different yellow, 10k is another etc ), then everything else is the same BG?

What the Argentina president doing is cleaning up all the BS agencies. The only one I question is the 7th proposal to punish riot organizations? You have to wonder,..what kind of punishment because maybe those riot organizations could be peaceful. Like the Canadian truck protest-that was peace yet the prime minister used emergency powers to prevent those protestors from buying much needed supply.
Sometimes something good gets twisted and becomes bad..Like the US gov't. I believe it was good long time ago, but has become twisted.

Before Bitcoin: buying things from faceless brands, pay and done.
After Bitcoin: getting things from real people whom I can talk to and learn from, even verify the process myself.
Did that happen to you? 👀
reply
One could argue that a superior money encourages you to do business with faceless brands. Pay and done. So you can focus on your specialization and maintaining the friendships you want to maintain instead of maintaining "friendships" just so you can buy things from them.
Its great if you want to shake your supplier's hand. But maybe there's a reason people are more likely to do business in BTC if they know/trust the other party. And maybe this "preference" to transact in BTC with trusted people isn't a good thing.

A quote from Aristotle, where he says, "Choice, not chance, determines your destiny" also reveals the important role of individual choice in one's destiny. This idea postulates that although people may be affected by circumstantial factors and other events, it is a choice that determines one's destiny. This means that care can be taken in a systematic way, and people's lives can be purposefully directed toward the desired course and endeavor. In addition, this philosophy creates an empowering and accountable context to increase people's agency and reduce their dependence on other people or situations to turn out well. It focuses on individualism and rationality, characterized by the notion that all individuals are the captains of their own souls, which implies that individuals are capable of shaping their own lives.

Becoming Public:

Becoming public puts you into a completely different world, with different rules.
This is where words have double meanings.
You may not know how this works, but you probably have experienced it.
Have you ever felt that there was one rule for you and one rule for them? Or do you think there are people in this world who are above the law?
Well they are not above the law, it’s just you have been conditioned to accept a status and place within this system that is below the law; that is what is controlling you, and does not touch “them”.
In their world Public vs Private means Debtor vs Creditor.
Private: you ask the questions, you are the creditor.
Public: you answer the questions you are the debtor.
This is the trap of the system, to escape it you must free your mind and end your slave mentality and do not ever allow yourself to be pulled into the public world again.
reply
This is the trap of the system, to escape it you must free your mind and end your slave mentality and do not ever allow yourself to be pulled into the public world again.
one of the hacks to free your mind is to move out of where you were born and see the difference on the other side of the world, many things you used to might be completely different outside of your bubble/cage.
reply
it definitely helps you realize that you are free anyway. Slavery is only a result of our beliefs
