Our continual mistake is that we do not concentrate upon the present day, the actual hour, of our life; we live in the past or the future; we are continually expecting the coming of some special moment when our life will unfold itself in its full significance. And we do not notice that life is flowing like water through our fingers, sifting like precious grain from a loosely fastened bag.
Constantly, each day, each hour, God is sending us people, circumstances, tasks, which should mark the beginning of our renewal; yet we pay them no attention, and thus continually we resist God’s will for us. Indeed, how can God help us? Only by sending us in our daily life certain people, and certain coincidences of circumstance. If we accepted every hour of our life as the hour of God’s will for us, as the decisive, most important, unique hour of our life – what sources of joy, love, strength, as yet hidden from us, would spring from the depth of our soul!
Let us then be serious in our attitude towards each person we meet in our life, towards every opportunity of performing a good deed; be sure that you will then fulfill God’s will for you in these very circumstances, on that very day, in that very hour.

I'm sure that's true. I just think he maybe should be holding a few more ideas back and workshoping them for a private audience.
For instance, using the English language as an example for his vision of how a brilliant useful protocol should change, very slowly over time only with careful consideration. Yet English changes in a very anarchic way, sporadically, regionally, in spurts, and sometimes quite drastically. There is no one consensus version of English. And "official" changes within dictionaries and textbooks are recognized only after a certain level of common usage has been adopted in a region, not because anyone has carefully considered each change and come to consensus that it is good for the protocol and protects the rights of all the current English users.

No doubt Saylor is smart and can be interesting to listen to but he has some sketchy takes. His analogies have always been poetic but it seems they are getting less so and more absurd.
He pretends he is against ossification but can't give a single example of something that might be worth considering upgrading. He didn't even agree that segwit should have been implemented, while saying everything else should be moved to layer 2 and 3, without mentioning that lightning, the only truly successful layer 2 so far, wouldn't have been possible without it. Does he really not understand this or is he just being deceptive? Either way not a good look.

Many bitcoiners know Agustín Guillermo Carstens Carstens, the general manager of the Bank of International Settlements, through memes depicting him as the final boss of Bitcoin, due to his monumental stature as well as his disparaging comments about bitcoin, and the Bank’s push for global crypto regulation and pushing for CBDC adoption.
The history of the BIS is less well know, but boy is it full of some juicy tidbits. The following quotes are from David Talbot’s masterpiece about Allen Dulles, America’s first psychopath CIA director and puppet master, The Devil's Chessboard.
https://image.nostr.build/26dd85d05bb56ba7c85446d2504c540ba3ffc56a9f5fdb419ed16c6b2f6bf8e0.jpg
“One of Dulles’s most important contacts in Europe was Thomas McKittrick, an old Wall Street friend who was president of the Bank for International Settlements. BIS had been created by the world’s leading central banks to administer German reparations payments after World War I, but it soon took on a life of its own, transforming itself into a pillar of the emerging global financial system. Lodged in a former hotel next to a chocolate shop in Basel, Switzerland, BIS was so secretive that nobody was permitted to peer inside its boardroom, even when it was empty. By 1940, when McKittrick arrived in Switzerland to oversee the bank, it was effectively controlled by Hitler’s regime. Five of its directors would later be charged with war crimes, including Hermann Schmitz, the CEO of IG Farben, the chemical conglomerate that became notorious for its production of Zyklon B, the gas used in Hitler’s death camps, and for its extensive use of slave labor during the war.”
“The secretive BIS became a crucial financial partner for the Nazis. Emil Puhl—vice president of Hitler’s Reichsbank and a close associate of McKittrick—once called BIS the Reichsbank’s only “foreign branch.” BIS laundered hundreds of millions of dollars in Nazi gold looted from the treasuries of occupied countries. Some of the gold was torn from the mouths of concentration camp victims or melted down from Jewish families’ candleholders, cigarette cases, and other personal belongings.”
(Completely unrelated side note: McKittrick went on to work for Chase Bank after the war.)
Understandably, this sort of behavior soured the Allied countries toward the BIS, and at the Bretton Woods Conference the decision was made to completely disband and liquidate the BIS. However, this decision was opposed by none other than the head of the British delegation at the conference, well known economist and sexual predator John Maynard Keynes, and so the bank was never dissolved, and continues to be a tool economic imperialism and money laundering for the world’s richest and most powerful people to this day.
Isn't history fun?

Yes. I think we all already know this deep down from whenever we first learned about nuclear weapons. But you just move on with your life and try not to think about it too much.
"Well, no more nuclear weapons have been used against another nation since WWII so they must have figured it out how not to use them and deterrence has worked!"
It's great that we have avoided it this long but basically if anyone uses one ever again there is a good chance it's lights out and curtains drawn for humanity, or at least the vast majority of humanity and civilization as we know it. No take backs, no mulligans.
I recall learning about nuclear weapons years ago and how many we have and the Soviets had and it seemed so crazy to me then. But to hear about it in the level of detail and minute to minute accounts of what would actually happen, who would be doing what, and how it all fits together, how many moving pieces there are and how many things could possibly go wrong in various ways really takes both the seriousness and the absurdity of the whole endeavor to a new level.
The account of what would happen if the diablo canyon nuclear plant was hit with a nuclear warhead makes me question my support of nuclear power. Even if the possibility of something like that is extremely remote maybe it's not worth the risk.

2024-04-30 17:54:10

I've been listening to Annie Jacobsen's new book Nuclear War A Scenario. You can listen to it free on Spotify if you are a subscriber. Any one else read/reading it? I'm about half way through. It's probably the most terrifying book I've ever read. Faced with the prospect of nuclear war all other human problems are absolutely nothing. It is completely insane that humans have so many nuclear weapons, and even though it is likely impossible, every effort should be made to rid the earth of them. No humans should have the power to destroy the world.
If you are curious but not sure if you want to take the plunge she's been doing a media blitz to promote the book so she's probably already been on some podcast you like. I recommend her interview with Dan Carlin specifically about this book, or Danny Jones, if you prefer an interview who is kind of a dummy, where they also get into a lot of material from her previous books.

Although Bill Monroe holds the title of Father of Bluegrass, without Earl Scruggs bluegrass would have been a different animal altogether. Earl Scruggs' innovative three-finger banjo playing, which became known as "Scruggs Style," is one of the defining elements of Bluegrass music, along side Bill's mandolin playing the High Lonesome vocal style. After his stint with the Bluegrass Boys he went on to have a long and fruitful musical career with Flatt & Scruggs. Here is Flatt & Scruggs playing the classic Ruben on the Grand Ole Opry Show.
