"If a person's diet is composed of corn, soy, and sugar, inflation increases at a far slower and more manageable rate." (Matthew Lysiak, "Fiat Food", page 102) #books #fiat #fiatfood

When you come back to the same reddit post after searching, and find your own reply on it. 🙄

I enjoyed this episode a lot. Never mind the interview was 8 years later, it gives his recount of what happened a more serene look at how crazy must've felt back then. Little tear was shed as he mentioned how other cybersecurity researchers couldn't bear the stress of US prosecution.

"The average distance between Earth and the Sun is about 93 million miles, or approximately 150 million kilometers. This distance is also known as 1 Astronomical Unit (AU). So to put the paper folding result in another perspective, that paper folded 50 times (at 112,590,000 kilometers) would be about 75% of the distance from Earth to the Sun." #solarsystem #longdistance #exponentialGrowth #foldedPaper

Even though it may be a tough listen, sometimes it's good to hear dissenting opinions. Echo chambers tend to sound like a cult after a while..

Idea for AI use case: yearly company benefits webinar is presented by an AI avatar while answering questions on chat simultaneously.

I'm keeping this thought by @Alexander Leishman (summary below courtesy of an LLM): "Bitcoin development should prioritize scaling solutions to enable widespread self-custody, ensuring everyone *can* self-custody, even if they don't. While scalability is vital, the primary focus ("north star") must remain preserving the protocol's sanctity and security, which should never be compromised. Scaling should aim to maximize accessibility, giving everyone the option to achieve self-sovereignty."

In the process of data and app move while changing laptops, I've had to launch daedalus node and patiently wait for it to synchronise before sending some leftover ADA to sell (yes, I'm a sinner 😇). The node software latest version requires 24GB of RAM (32GB recommended). 😳 Fortunately it has a mode for systems with less memory. Ngl, I can't wait for it to finish (it's taking ages!) so I can be done with hosting my own cardano node. So much for scalability! #cardano #ada #bitcoin #homenode #blockchain
