I literally can’t turn my iPhone off, and guided access is greyed out for no apparent reason. I’ve closed all apps and disconnected all wireless in my testing. Having a “power off” function that is software based is the dumbest design choice imaginable. I have grown to hate recent tech trends more and more. Seriously how does you *power button* malfunction? “Try turning it off and on again” - well guess what?

GM sorry for the lack of episodes. I’ve been in the car 3+ hours every day for the past five. Overseeing last of the bathroom remodel. Packing and unpacking and packing again. Trying to wrap the audiobook for Bushido of Bitcoin. Making progress on the Bitcoin Mining Handbook audio. Dealing with car trouble. Getting our fence back up. Debugging a few quick versions of PearDrive. Trying to find dog sitters. And constantly adjusting basement plans to try and get them to approve the permit… with a baby and a 3 year old. That was my week 😅 Despite actually managing some late night recording, I never actually closed 2 episodes I’m working on and we had to cancel the Roundtable because we just couldn’t align schedules this month. Been a lot, but I’ll have some stuff for you this coming week 👏🏻 Keep hustling 🫡✊🏻

It’s harder to keep wealth than it is to get it. Bitcoiners need to keep that in mind when thinking about taking on leverage and how they secure their keys. I say this as someone who has been reckless before in both categories… it usually doesn’t work out well. And when it does, it’s dangerous, because it typically only reinforces the bad habit rather than getting you to that point where “I’ll just stop after this one” or “I’ll do my multisig setup next week” or “I’ll form the trust when I get done with this project.” Protect your wealth. The people you love are depending on you whether they know it or not. 🙏🏻

Easy way to tell the real ones. It’s not about spending or saving. If you are on a #Bitcoin standard, you use your money and there’s not really a debate. View quoted note →

Being called by a bot run by some service legit comes off as so disrespectful. They literally aren’t even willing to waste *their own time* in the effort to waste mine. If I’m not even worth a human phone call, why TF would I think your service is any more respectful of my needs?
