Yes. It works.

Happy Bitcoin White Paper Day https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf

It is entertaining to watch Peter Schiff make the case for bitcoin without admitting it. But seriously. How long can his pride keep him from opening his eyes? I don't know Peter, but if his son has anything to do with it we might be waiting a while. Many parents just have to much pride to admit they were wrong.

Interesting report on EVs.

Testing ndk-cli tail command. Is this thing one?

"A rebuke goes deeper into one who has understanding than a hundred blows into a fool." ~ Proverbs 17:10

Entertaining to watch the AI hype fade. For those that have a hard time with nuance, I said the HYPE, not AI. When you've worked in tech with a skeptical mindset for as long as I have you start to see these patterns repeat. Its easy to dismiss the tech when the hype is so high but that is also a mistake.

My biggest issue with Nostr isn't with Nostr. We have been so influenced by the things that have come before it that we keep trying to squeeze it into these old molds. This will change. This tool has more utility than posting memes and arguing with people in bad faith.

Decades Later, the US Government Called Hiroshima and Nagasaki ‘Nuclear Tests’

Decades Later, the US Government Called Hiroshima and Nagasaki ‘Nuclear Tests’

In 1980, when I asked the press office at the U.S. Department of Energy to send me a listing of nuclear bomb test explosions, the agency mailed me ...

Just noticed some Mastodon users are on Nostr. Looks like this is coming from the mostr.pub bridge. Are these folks aware their content is on Nostr or is this completely passive?

Went to see Sound of Freedom. Its a heavy film. Well done. Not comfortable to watch but very glad it is being seen by so many people. The reaction by some against this film is quite astounding. For those that have been hearing all the nonsense about this movie. It is not political at all. The people writing these reviews calling it Q-anon are either incapable to seeing the world through a sane lens or are actively trying to discourage progressive people from seeing the movie for other reasons. Either way, these people should do some soul searching. The funny thing about all this "backlash" about this movie is that had the press ignored this movie I would have probably just watched it at home in a year or two but do to the extreme reaction I wanted to see it for myself. Years of observing the media has taught me to be very skeptical and look at things for myself. I suggest everyone go see this film for two reasons. 1. We should be aware of trafficking and take action to help stop it. 2. We should support content that the status quo does not want us to see. If you've seen the film would love to hear your thoughts.

Proof of work in James 2:14-17: > What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good[a] is that? So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. Was thinking about the lack of value in our thoughts and opinions that our culture is so obsessed with. Also thinking about how much fakeness there is in the world when this passage came to mind. It is not the works that EARN salvation. This is clear from scripture but if you are living in Christ the proof of this fact will be evident. I think that is what James is saying here. It is easy to say things but the proof is in the work. Wild how bitcoin gives me new angles on things I've known for years. #plebchain

Money is a tool we use to store our time and energy. Its kinda like a battery for your life energy. We have a leaky battery called fiat money. Many of the problems politicians claim to want to solve are caused by bad money. Bitcoin is a good battery. #Bitcoin fixes this. #plebchain
