I know he’s not loved by Bitcoiners, but Zeihan is a worthwhile read for this stuff.

I happened to have a bottle of bourbon a Bitcoiner friend of mine wanted. I didn’t need the cash at the time and still felt stupid for ignoring another friend that tried to get me to buy around 2012 so I asked for payment in BTC. I checked it from time to time until COVID and then decided to increase my allocation when the price fell. Been adding since. So… bourbon is the reason I hold BTC, I guess.

If you’re building MCP servers that are thin wrappers around a well-documented REST API, sure. If they also encode domain knowledge, no. At least imo.

Why is it getting on your nerves? I’ve been leaning Pop for the built-in nvidia support but I’m considering Fedora as well.

Memory seems to be a hot topic on Moltbook. I wonder what fun use cases there might be for space-dependent memory.

Justified is underrated imo. The rivalry between characters played by Timothy Olyphant and Walton Goggins makes for a good watch.

I’m not sure I understand the question well enough to answer appropriately. When I made the call I didn’t really have good information on outcomes in those that got the jab vs those that did not. So in a strict statistical sense, no. For me it was simply that I was not in a vulnerable demographic so a less than 1% chance of death vs unquantifiable risk associated with medical intervention for which there is no long term data. To me, the math said I should take my chances. I still don’t fault those that saw the equation differently.

The cult of risk math.

The courage it must take to sell half a percent of AUM. So brave.

I’ve heard some call Bitcoin a lifeboat and I think the analogy makes sense. I guess my reverse ask would be do you want McDonalds or whatever on that lifeboat? I don’t.
