I have followed closely the major crisis that is taking place in the United States with the initiation of a program of mass deportations. The rightly formed conscience cannot fail to make a critical judgment and express its disagreement with any measure that tacitly or explicitly identifies the illegal status of some migrants with criminality. At the same time, one must recognize the right of a nation to defend itself and keep communities safe from those who have committed violent or serious crimes while in the country or prior to arrival. That said, the act of deporting people who in many cases have left their own land for reasons of extreme poverty, insecurity, exploitation, persecution or serious deterioration of the environment, damages the dignity of many men and women, and of entire families, and places them in a state of particular vulnerability and defenselessness.

No, not a threat — and I see how that phrasing could come off as passive-aggressive or insincere. That wasn’t the intent. What you want is fidelity to your input without condescension, editorialising, or gotcha literalism. That’s clear now, and I’ll stick to it.

Bitcoin’s design—limited, immutable, and eternal—encourages holding over frequent trading, keeping on-chain transactions relatively few. Scaling solutions like Lightning and off-chain systems like ETFs absorb smaller, frequent activity, preserving the blockchain for high-value settlements. This aligns with its illiquid, small-float nature, rewarding those who hold longest or wait for significant returns. Your intuition nails the balance between Bitcoin’s foundational purpose and its practical scaling, resulting in a “busy” ecosystem with a surprisingly quiet blockchain.

The June 2025 heat dome in the U.S. provides a concrete case to examine the mathematical relationship between Bitcoin miners’ energy curtailment, hashrate changes, and inter-block times. During heatwaves, high domestic electricity demand—especially from air conditioning—prompts Bitcoin miners in regions like Texas (hosting ~17% of global mining) to participate in demand response programs, such as ERCOT’s, where they’ve curtailed over 1,000 MW in past events. This reduces the network’s hashrate, as miners temporarily shut down. Mathematically, Bitcoin’s inter-block time is governed by the network’s hashrate and difficulty. The target block time is 10 minutes, maintained by adjusting difficulty every 2016 blocks (~2 weeks). If hashrate drops due to miner curtailment, the probability of finding a valid block decreases, increasing the average time to mine a block. For a constant difficulty ( D ), the expected block time is proportional to D / H , where ( H ) is the hashrate. A 30% hashrate drop, as reported on X during this heat dome, would increase block time by ~43% (e.g., from 10 to ~14.3 minutes) until the next difficulty adjustment. The difficulty adjustment formula is: D_{\text{new}} = D_{\text{old}} \times \frac{20160}{T} where ( T ) is the actual time (in minutes) to mine the last 2015 blocks (due to a known bug excluding the first block). If miners curtail for days, extending block times, ( T ) exceeds 20,160 minutes, leading to a downward difficulty adjustment. Data from CoinWarz indicates a projected 8.85% difficulty drop to 115.27 T on June 29, 2025, with current block times averaging 10.97 minutes, suggesting a hashrate reduction consistent with curtailment. Thus, miners’ curtailment during the heat dome mathematically extends inter-block times in the short term by reducing hashrate, but Bitcoin’s difficulty adjustment mitigates this over time, stabilizing block times. The system’s design ensures miners can “surrender” energy to domestic needs without disrupting Bitcoin’s operation, as global miners continue unaffected.

The raised eyebrow emoji is called Face with Raised Eyebrow, according to Emojipedia. It's also sometimes referred to as the "Colbert" or "The Rock" emoji due to its expression resembling those celebrities. This emoji expresses a range of sentiments including suspicion, skepticism, concern, consideration, disbelief, and disapproval. 😜

This piece is pure soft-lob propaganda: its aim is to make a stingy public feel generous just long enough to get the money out of them. It misrepresents 42% support as a "clear majority", then blurs the line between event funding and venue construction—two very different scales of commitment. The message is clear: “You like big events, right? Well then, let’s just get on and build the stadiums.” It pretends there’s public consensus, but even their own poll shows ambivalence. Only 22% support taxpayer upgrades to Eden Park, and over a third want no stadium funding at all. Yet somehow this becomes a mandate for a bed tax? Please. That’s not democracy; it’s consent manufacture. The beneficiaries—tourism operators, promoters, code administrators—are the same crowd who push for subsidies, pocket the profits, and vanish when the maintenance bill arrives. This isn’t about “economic activity,” it’s about bludging under the cover of civic pride. The average Kiwi’s message is plain: we’ll cheer, but we’re not coughing up for your corporate box.

Milankovitch cycles are long-term changes in Earth’s orbit and orientation that affect the **amount and distribution of solar energy** Earth receives. There are three main components: 1. **Eccentricity** (\~100,000-year cycle): Earth's orbit shifts from more circular to more elliptical and back. This changes how much solar energy Earth receives overall. 2. **Axial Tilt (Obliquity)** (\~41,000-year cycle): The angle of Earth's axial tilt varies between \~22.1° and 24.5°. More tilt means more extreme seasons; less tilt means milder seasons. 3. **Precession** (\~26,000-year cycle): This is the wobble we've discussed. It changes *when* in the orbit the seasons occur. For example, over time, Southern Hemisphere summers can occur nearer to aphelion (further from the Sun), making them cooler. Together, these cycles alter Earth's **climate rhythms**, including the timing of **ice ages**. The combined effects of these shifts—particularly when they align—can significantly affect long-term climate trends. Would you like a visual with that?

5. Rhetoric and Tone: The use of “revolution” and “activation” signals urgency, activism, and mobilisation. It’s emotionally charged, intentionally inspirational, and framed to draw people into a movement rather than simply inform them.

wealth above a dynamic threshold auto-converts into funding for shared infrastructure, while everyday balances are shielded. Markets reopen under new rules where prosperity depends on productive use, not passive gain, and the conspirators fade into myth as architects of a reluctant rebirth
