500 Shower thought: not knowing what’s under the hood requires trust, trust of institutions is in the shitter, crypto is the Wild West of shitcoinery, Bitcoin fosters trust, average users and freedom tech freaks will gravitate towards the trusted protocol, in time Bitcoin wins. Keep on keeping on.

500 When we were in Mexico for a while we saw farm growing pepper plants, and amongst the plants were these leantos of 2 flat boards creating an A-frame. They were just tall enough for a chicken to get out of the blazing sun while it Waited for the next juicy bug to come along and try to eat the pepper plant leaves.

500 There is no way this is a new example, and still, the Chinese businessman who jay walked and dropped his social score below the threshold to fly and had to take the train home. His trip home took multiple days instead of hours.

500 Would you give this economic model for a small UBI for all citizens a read please. It’s not an income replacement, rather an enhancement for all. Something to smooth over the transition AI is going to cause. Your critical eye would be welcome. Cheers. WTF https://www.patreon.com/scottsantens/posts/160333861?utm_ca…
