I did watch a lot of the Tone Vays stream. Watched it last halving too. So epic.
Eating dinner with my wife. I mentioned it in passing to her. She asked a couple of questions and then we continued eating.
Agreed. Even if our kids are off devices, they see us glued to them. What message does that send? And are they lonely within the family environment because they’re competing for their parents’ attention, love.
I have in-depth knowledge of how rush times work at a few very popular fast food places and been involved in deep dives of their process and how to improve them.
A few key points:
- If pricing is held constant, you have to increase customer flow
- Increasing customer flow has a couple of dials to turn: ordering process and food prep
- While making changes to ordering process certainly help, changes are made to food prep that tend to lead toward having food already prepared and waiting or making food that can be re-heated quickly
My takeaway is that keeping prices constant during rush times partially leads to lower quality food with preservatives.
If Wendy’s is successful with surge pricing, maybe they don’t feel the need to cheapen the food and the market starts demanding higher quality food
Good reminder to mitigate your risks. If you use a company’s cloud, don’t have cameras in vulnerable places.
Or you can run your own cloud and be as freaky as you want.
That’s exciting. Congrats on the executive sponsorship.
First glance at the promotional posters, it looks like a film about Wasabi Wallet. The weight of the layout emphasizes Wasabi, whereas the movie title looks like the production studio name.
Reminds me of the Emily Blunt/Tom Cruise film poster. Movie was Edge of Tomorrow, but the poster emphasized the slogan so much that people thought it was called Live, Die, Repeat.
I’ve had two people ask me recently who haven’t brought it up in a couple of years. They want to know more now.
I appreciate you sharing. Your journey is important and an area that needs improvement for Bitcoin to help at the local level.
Pulling back a bit, you mention multiple times about the peso losing value. That is the root of the problem. And that is a main problem Bitcoin is aiming to fix. The toolchains are focusing on getting the base of our economies switched to hard money, so the pesos of the world don’t inflate away their value.
You are correct, though, that the user experience with Lightning is still difficult, especially running it yourself. All of these things can be true at once.
I am curious about something. It sounds like there aren’t many ways to convert in and out of Bitcoin locally, except through shady people. Do you understand why? Are local laws or organizations making that so? If you’re not a shady person, maybe consider becoming that BTC conversion solution for others.
