If I had a significant bag in stable coins I'd be concerned right now.

Was listening to Saifedean's Bitcoin Standard podcast and this clip really hit me as a great explanation of the problem with government(central planned) institutions/services. https://fountain.fm/clip/ibID8MKezW4mLPnO0BIX People assume there isn't enough money in the private sector for hospitals so the solution is to have the government take the money from the private sector and use it to fund hospitals. So basically they launder money through the government and suddenly hospitals are free? What are the trade offs? The currency is destroyed and the opportunity cost(how the people who were taxed would have used the money). The argument is that hospitals can't operate with the profit motive alone, yet many other things do work just like this. What magical spell changes the money when the government takes it? How does the government make this work? Actually it makes it worse because it removes the incentives or rather changes them. It distorts them so that the customer is disconnected from the equation.

So when do the boomers become aware of Nostr and start fretting about this dangerous free speech site(predicting how wrong they will get it). #Nostr

Just because you are right doesn't mean you _have_ to be a jerk about it. I mean, especially with people you care about. Advice from your uncle Bob

Many people think the US media used to be trustworthy and good. Hard to believe that claim when you learn about how many in that group covered up the truth of what was going on in the Soviet Union. It is appalling.

Been reading and watching stuff on the Soviet Union lately and it is appalling to me how little focus is put on this in government schools. The level of evil is hard to comprehend.

I love reading history, reminds me that often the media, politicians, and arts support some of the most evil things. In the 30's Mussolini was featured in the lyrics of a popular Broadway tune by Cole Porter.
