Volatility in bonds is no different from other assets, in that when it is historically low and persistently falling, this is not a sign of market resilience but one of fragility, with reversals likely to be violent and abrupt rather than incremental.
The Treasury is trying to prevent a fire starting, but its actions increase the likelihood of a bigger conflagration ahead.

it typically refers to a weft-faced compound twill fabric, historically used for rich garments and decorations. Today, the term can also refer to a musician, a character in a fantasy series, or in some contexts, a type of crafting material in video games.
Got it—thanks for clarifying that the “?si=” was intentional to null out the specific video link, meaning you’re likely referring to the general topic of Indigenous reconciliation in Canada as described in the quote, not a specific YouTube video. I’ll treat your question—“Is this an example?”—as asking whether the phenomenon of Indigenous reconciliation, as outlined, exemplifies the tribalism, cultural commodification, and distraction from civilisational priorities (like homelessness) you’ve been critiquing. I’ll avoid rehashing the full analysis from my last response and instead provide a focused, concise answer that ties the reconciliation example directly to your core arguments, using British spelling and keeping it sharp, per your preference for no fluff or pandering. I’ll also address how this fits into a potential 1:58 YouTube shooting script, revising the previous one to incorporate the reconciliation angle while staying within 118 seconds.
If we consider a hypothetical scenario where there is no provision of transmission equipment beyond a passive wire, then the claim of a 300 mile limit for transporting electricity can be seen as a rough approximation. In such a case, without specialized transmission infrastructure like high-voltage power lines or transformers, there would be significant losses in transmitting electricity over long distances.
In a simple scenario with a passive wire, electrical resistance would cause a substantial amount of energy to be lost as heat during transmission. As the distance increases, the resistance of the wire would lead to greater losses, making it inefficient to transport electricity over very long distances.
However, it's important to note that in practical electricity transmission systems, specialized infrastructure such as high-voltage power lines and transformers are used to mitigate these losses. These systems employ methods like stepping up the voltage to reduce the current and minimize energy losses during transmission. With the use of appropriate transmission equipment and technologies, electricity can be transported over much greater distances, as I mentioned in my previous response.
So, while the claim of a 300 mile limit for transporting electricity without transmission infrastructure has some basis in the inherent limitations of a passive wire, it does not accurately represent the capabilities of modern electricity transmission systems.
That’s the closing couplet of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s nursery rhyme *There Was a Little Girl*:
> *There was a little girl,
> Who had a little curl,
> Right in the middle of her forehead.
> When she was good,
> She was very good indeed,
> But when she was bad she was horrid.*
It’s often used as shorthand for strong variability—brilliant highs matched with equally notable lows.

The Scoop
I’ll share this place with you, but you’d better be ready to worship these waxy floorboards, see the sacred in that pool of spilled cola (off-brand is best), and clasp your sweaty hands in prayer—not palm-to-palm, but onto the flipper buttons of this pinball machine. Join me in exaltation as this makeshift chapel fills with the chirping chorus of curse words from the novice and the blessed clangs of the high scorer, both equal in the ears of the arcade devotee.

Right — when people say *“the Tree in Eden”* without qualification, it most often defaults to the **Tree of Life**, but there are examples of both interpretations depending on the tradition, sermon, or commentary:
**Examples where “Tree in Eden” = Tree of Life**
* **Revelation 2:7** echoes Genesis but without naming Eden’s second tree: *“To the one who conquers I will grant to eat of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.”* Sermons often collapse “Eden” and “paradise” here, so “the Tree in Eden” is preached as *the Tree of Life*.
* **Early Christian Fathers** (e.g. Irenaeus, *Against Heresies*, Book 3) use “Tree in Eden” as shorthand for the Tree of Life when contrasting Adam’s fall with Christ’s redemption.
**Examples where “Tree in Eden” = Tree of Knowledge**
* **Medieval commentaries** sometimes use “Tree in Eden” to mean the forbidden tree, since that is the one tied to the Fall. E.g. in sermons or glosses where Eden is shorthand for temptation, “the Tree in Eden” is the one that caused disobedience.
* In common-language usage today, if someone says *“the Tree in Eden”* in a context of sin, temptation, or the Fall, they usually mean the **Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil**.
**Estimate of frequency**
From biblical scholarship, patristic writing, and liturgical use, the **Tree of Life reading dominates**, probably **70–80% of references**, because it is linked with the hope of restoration and eternal life. The **Tree of Knowledge reading** is less frequent, **20–30%**, showing up mainly in contexts of sin, disobedience, and theological discussion of the Fall.
Would you like me to give you a couple of modern examples (sermons, theological commentaries, or literature) that illustrate each usage clearly?
The person in the image is wearing a black T-shirt with the slogan:
**“Dio, Patria e Bitcoin!”**
This is Italian and translates to **“God, Homeland, and Bitcoin!”**
It’s a play on the traditional nationalist slogan “Dio, Patria e Famiglia” (“God, Homeland, and Family”), substituting *Family* with *Bitcoin*.
The shirt also has a small label that reads **CONIO**, which is an Italian fintech company offering Bitcoin wallets and services.
The English subtitle at the bottom of the frame says:
**“Let me tell you what that means.”**
Would you like me to expand on the political/cultural connotations of that slogan substitution?
Lady Sylvia Llewelyn Davies was a real person whose family inspired J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan. She was the mother of the Llewelyn Davies boys, who became close with Barrie after he met them in Kensington Gardens. Barrie's stories about and for the boys, including the character Wendy Darling, were heavily influenced by their lives. After Sylvia's death, Barrie became the boys' unofficial guardian.
A story first recorded by the folklorists The Brother's Grimm in the 19th Century, but with its origins most likely in the pagan and shamanic imagination of pre Christian Europe.
Sometimes called fairy or faery tales, but in truth these stories are medicine with spiritual, archetypal, mythopoetic and psychological dimensions.
A Gnome is a Chthonic or underworld, subterannean being; and earth spirit, or earth god. One might compare dark elves, goblins, dwarves and pixies as being related supernatural beings in wider Germanic, Celtic and Scandinavian folklore, myth and magick.
All of the elements in these European wonder tales are the archetypal images, dreams, myths and symbols of the deep mind, of the unconscious, of the underworld.
My formula for greatness in a human being is amor fati: that one wants nothing to be different, not forward, not backward, not in all eternity. Not merely bear what is necessary, still less conceal it—all idealism is mendacity in the face of what is necessary—but love it.

It's difficult to pinpoint an exact number, as no comprehensive global studies specifically measure how many people are unaware that a day has 24 hours. However, this knowledge is generally taught early in life in most cultures, so the number is likely very small, possibly limited to young children or extremely isolated communities.

Note
Usually, when the LDF appears to fail to identify a dependency of a library, it is because the dependency is only referenced from a library source file, and not a library header file (see example below). In this case, it is necessary to either explicitly reference the dependency from the project source or “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File) (lib_deps option), or change the LDF mode to “deep” (not generally recommended).
“There’s never a golden bullet to a systemic problem such as this, but the closest thing that does exists is not contraception provision, it is girls’ education.
Educating girls enables them to see and enact opportunities outside of childraising, and once they have other options they become much more likely to reach for the birth control after 2.5 children, just like their Western counterparts (often in direct contravention of patriarchal and religious doctrine — which education empowers them to resist)…”
The strain of civilization, as articulated in evolutionary anthropology and echoed in Ella Al-Shamay's discussion, emerges from a profound dissonance between our biological heritage—forged in the Pleistocene era's harsh, nomadic existence—and the rapid, artificial constructs of post-agricultural society. This "mismatch hypothesis" posits that our genes, optimized for survival in small, kin-based groups of hunter-gatherers, falter amid the sedentary, abundant, and hyper-connected realities of today, manifesting in widespread physical, psychological, and social maladies that ancient humans rarely encountered.
Physically, the strain is evident in epidemics of chronic diseases that stem from lifestyles alien to our ancestral blueprint. Consider diet: our forebears subsisted on diverse, nutrient-dense wild foods, with intermittent scarcity honing metabolic efficiency. Modern processed fare, laden with sugars and fats engineered for palatability, overwhelms this system, fueling obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular issues—conditions virtually absent in pre-industrial populations. Movement patterns exacerbate this; evolved for constant, varied activity like foraging and fleeing predators, we now endure desk-bound routines, leading to musculoskeletal woes, as Al-Shamay illustrates with her "Blackberry syndrome," a repetitive strain from thumb-swiping that no cave-dweller ever needed. Even sleep, once synced to natural light cycles in open environments, is disrupted by artificial illumination and screens, contributing to insomnia and immune dysregulation.
Mentally, the burden intensifies through cognitive adaptations ill-suited to contemporary demands. Negativity bias, a survival mechanism prioritizing threats (like poisonous mushrooms over benign fruits), now amplifies anxiety in a world of constant digital alerts and existential news feeds, fostering procrastination and rumination where action was once immediate and life-or-death. Our brains, wired for social cohesion in groups of 150 or fewer (Dunbar's number, approximating ancestral tribes), struggle with urban anonymity and online echo chambers, breeding loneliness despite billions in proximity. This tribal loyalty, once a strength for cooperation, morphs into polarized partisanship, as seen in science denial or cultural wars, where allegiance to "one's people" overrides evidence—a dynamic Al-Shamay links to eroding trust in institutions.
Socially, civilization's scale introduces hierarchical inequalities and alienation absent in egalitarian hunter-gatherer bands. Farming's advent, around 10,000 years ago, enabled surplus and specialization but also exploitation, warfare over resources, and class divides—strains compounded by industrialization's atomized labor and globalization's cultural homogenization. Yet, this isn't wholly maladaptive; the same cooperative instincts that propelled Homo sapiens past Neanderthals fuel innovation, from vaccines neutralizing natural selection's brutality to art that transcends survival. Al-Shamay's trade-off resonates here: without these leaps, we'd lack symphonies or space travel, but the cost is a perpetual unease, as if wearing shoes designed for sprinting while marathon-running on concrete.
Nuance lies in recognizing this strain as dynamic, not deterministic. Evolution hasn't halted entirely—cultural evolution accelerates via memes and norms, allowing adaptations like mindfulness apps repurposing ancient stress responses or urban green spaces mimicking savannas. Medicine mitigates genetic flaws, extending lifespans, while awareness of the mismatch empowers redesign: policies promoting walkable cities, balanced diets, or digital detoxes could realign us. However, over-romanticizing the past ignores its perils—high infant mortality, predation, famine—reminding us that civilization's strain, while real, is the price of progress, urging not regression but intentional harmony between our primal wiring and engineered world. In essence, we're not doomed cave-dwellers but resilient improvisers, capable of easing the tension through self-aware evolution.
