GM β˜• The best, simple explanation of Nostr I've come up with is, it's a place you can't be cancelled, but nobody has to listen to your bullshit either.

Nobody said the end of empire would be boring, but goddam I had hoped it would at least be entertaining. This season opener was badly written.

Voting is consent to the outcome and the system that produced it. Don't encourage the fuckers.

My public prediction: By 2030, the USD will have ceased to be a reserve currency except among some subset of US trading partners, and hyperinflation will then be in full force. There is no longer anyone running the train, only thugs looting its cargo and jumping off before it derails, leaving everyone else holding the bags. And there is nobody coming to save you.

The ability of MS copilot/GPT to analyze, fix, or write new Rust code is pretty mind blowing. I'm not a Rust expert, but I'm getting close to being an expert Rust prompt engineer πŸ˜†

I've lived in the same place for the last 30 years. And in those decades I have visited dozens of countries both for business and for fun. The comfort and familiarity of home is always nice to return to, yet I constantly seek out opportunities to visit unique destinations. The most important thing I've learned from interacting with people from cultures different from my own is that sometimes those differences matter, very much so, but most often they do not. It is the humanity we all have in common that matters the most.
