I really like this. However, you would have to remain vigilant in regards to remembering to supply more withdrawal addresses as to not auto deposit to the same address more than once. Would be cool if they added a feature to pause and alert users when auto withdraw addresses have been all used up.
Where is the "megapost" ?
I see only a link to an obscure platform that nobody interested in this subject will visit it, nor can read it.
If the "megapost" is not posted directly on SN, IT DOESN'T MATTER.
Once is posted on SN you can share THAT link to any bullshit platform like X.
Beat me to it by 1/2 hour!!
Tariffs may be aimed at foreign companies and governments, but their domestic consequences are often far greater. Advocates for protectionist measures on steel, lumber, electric vehicles, and other products fail to understand that everyone who invests in the stock market has suffered losses because of this policy. It isn’t just the approximately 60 percent of Americans who directly own stocks, often in their 401(k)s and individual retirement accounts, union pensions and teacher retirement plans will be affected, too. The minor bump in price protection for certain industries is more than wiped out by trillions eviscerated in the market capitalization in the major indexes and the domestic economic dislocation.
You pay one way or you pay another. The state is in the business of taking money from Peter to pay Paul and themselves. They can take it by income, excise, property and head taxes. But the taxcollector cometh! Whether you like or want it or not.
I'm a bit on the fence about this.
Many of our foreign competitors get state support while our companies do not.
The textbook answer is: "So what? More and cheaper products for us."
But a side effect is the loss of human capital as an economy deindustrializes and moves to a consumption-based economy financed by (perhaps) money printing and extraction of resources via war.
I don't think we should ignore the social implications either, if certain geographic areas rapidly deindustrialize there comes with it all sorts of social problems and unrest.
No worries, we seem to have found sth already.
Not sure I'll have a lot of time, but is it possible to come say hi in Pleblab at some point? Don't want to interrupt of course. I'll be near UT at Austin, so not exactly downtown, but not too far either.
Does it matter which device I enable device sync from? I'm currently on a device that doesn't have credentials for my attached wallet.
Alby with NWC
fwiw, I saw the receiving credentials in the attached wallet configuration page on my phone, but the sending credentials were blank.
I also refreshed my browser and same thing
Edit: NVM it's working now after another refresh
That was fascinating. Our ape brains definitely come prewired for tribalism - sometimes to our detriment.
I think with investing it's a little different, but there's something similar going on. Intelligence often seems counterproductive, but I think there are some orthogonal attributes that are maybe also prerequisite - an ability to reason about exponential growth, and a healthy amount of introspection of one's emotional state. A healthy appreciation of statistics may come into play as well. In any case, I've met several very bright people who made for terrible investors.
During covid I noticed how inflexible the economy had become, because of the endless morass of regulations. So many rules that generally don't matter during smooth economic times, prevented the global economy from adapting to a major shock.
As to the idea of a new amendment, I think clarification on what free associations means could do the trick. Voluntary economic interactions are just a form of free association and the state should not be allowed to involve itself.
It's like we talked about on another post, the tariffs aren't aimed at foreigners. The politicians who implement them couldn't care less who gets hit, as long as the revenue rolls in.
What they know is that the rhetoric of targeting foreigners is more palatable to the voting public.
If the current trajectory is waning wokeism, wouldn't an acceleration put an end to it faster?
That might just be pedantic nit-picking (which I'm famously in favor of).

I could not agree more. A "go to" of mine back in the day was stuffed crust with beef, bacon, and pineapple.
There was a time in my life where I always considered myself to be a piece of shit, and I was always very quick to remind myself what a loser I am. Even after I lost over 100 lbs, I considered myself to be a piece of shit. That's when I realized I needed to make a change from the inside.
I quit belittling myself and my achievements, it took a couple years to break the habit, and start complimenting myself.
I can tell you without a doubt that I'm a much happier person these days.
So, I guess that's my anecdotal evidence in favor of positive thought.
