So does that mean they’re not trusting the science? The fact is being one of the biggest (the biggest?) sources of ad revenue makes Big Pharma a major player in swaying public opinion and policy. CDC page updated in Jan 2024 still pushes paxlovid. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/clinical-care/outpatient-treatment-overview.html What You Need to Know There is strong scientific evidence that antiviral treatment of persons with mild to moderate illness who are at risk for severe COVID-19 reduces their risk of hospitalization and death. The antiviral drugs ritonavir-boosted nirmatrelvir (Paxlovid) and remdesivir (Veklury) are the preferred treatments for eligible adult and pediatric patients who are at high risk for progression to severe COVID-19. Clinicians should consider COVID-19 treatment in patients with mild-to-moderate COVID-19 who have one or more risk factors for severe COVID-19. Treatment must be started as soon as possible and within 5-7 days of symptom onset What are the risks factors for severe Covid-19 might you ask? From the link. Age is the most important risk factor for severe outcomes of COVID-19. Risk factors for severe COVID-19 include: Age over 50 years, with risk increasing substantially at age ≥ 65 years Being unvaccinated or not being up to date on COVID-19 vaccinations Specific medical conditions, including immunocompromising conditions More evidence of a corrupt, captured organization and public health apparatus.

welp this was wrong. a little more patience required.

Well when you put it that way, it’s obvious why we’re raising the inflation target. Need to justify lowering rates.

It’s not just this post. It’s every single post in 6thSJ

What is your preferred economic system for a society? Almost every single one of your posts has an anti-Capitalist flavor.

The coil is tightening. Big breakout in BTC coming soon.

I don’t have to share the receipts. At the time of my first post on this forum bitcoin was 7k. If you don’t think that six years and 10x later, that I’ve helped anybody make money then I don’t know what to say.

I like how this is brought up like I’m such a distasteful person. Let’s say I get 1000 negs. Easily 80% are from like 10-12 posters. So if 10 people here hate me I shouldn’t be able to post on the forum? I like talking about this stuff here, and I’ve helped other posters make money. I think my contributions to the site are a net positive.

Sorry let me find something from a non expert, who's not convinced of things that are written in the code. Do you have a blog?

On a related note, Tl;Dr but here you go. https://medium.com/@lopp/who-controls-bitcoin-core-c55c0af91b8a

Sound reasoning. 😆 Here ya go

Yep. Short meeting.

Good point. I'd think maybe the laws around a private citizen committing brazen fraud are more clear cut and less open to frivolous procedural challenges that muck things up with someone in a public office.

blockchain analysis is an inexact science imo. But here's an older breakdown. coins have distributed slowly over time. Still, the vast majority of coins haven't moved over years. The Ultimate Guide to Bitcoin Whales (glassnode.com) Saylor's description of bitcoin is as digital property. Less emphasis on currency. Then it causes less confusion in people. Now if there ends up being some hyperbitcoinization event, then it will be end up a currency with more stable value at the end. That would be far off though. Here's an interesting interview I'm about halfway through. I don't expect anyone to watch, it's long but anyway here it is. He makes some interesting points about the definition of currencies. There's the 3 points. Medium of exchange. Store of value. Unit of account. Out of all the currencies in the world there's only 3 or so units of account. USD, Euro, CNY. None of the global currencies, including USD, are really stores of value. Anyone with any amount of assets tries to hold as little cash in checking account as possible. You buy stocks, or real estate, or gold or whatever to store value.

It really is that simple. Barring a black swan event like some catastrophic bug in the software or the accidental leak of an engineered virus from a foreign lab, this year is going to be huge. Yes all that dumb hedge fund and wall St money coming in. Listen I get it, for once the little guys were able to frontrun Wall St and you didn't participate. In fact, you did the opposite and hated on it for YEARS instead. I’d recommend taking the L and joining in. In a year you can buy your wife something nice. Maybe do some big renovations or something. She’d appreciate it.

Fuel for the fire. Love it.

Is there anything about these big ships that makes them more likely to lose power at low speed vs cruising? Or just straight up terrible luck?

This is something I saw online. Not sure of validity.

Ooh I’m afraid that's not true. I'm reminded of the Jim Gaffigan line about having 4 kids. Imagine you're drowning and then someone throws you a baby. Some definite changes happen. You can convince yourself to try to squeeze 5 into a bigger hotel room or one with a pullout couch or whatever. But once you hit 6 family members travel anywhere becomes a connected rooms/jumbo suite big deal. Of course, the cost of living goes up. We just recently became a 2lb family. When we make spaghetti now, we need 2lb of ground beef and more sauce to feed everyone. Also as they older, every added kid and their activities pile up. Our youngest just turned 6 and ever since he's gotten into sports the schedule complexity has blown up. Looking forward to the oldest being able to drive. This isn't to discourage people from 4. It's a fun, wild ride.

Congrats. Don't know Houston but sounds like a good fit. Middle school is tough on spectrum kids. My son was going through lunch money quickly. We figured out kids were making him buy them snacks. He ended up becoming the school mascot so he would sit with the cheerleaders. Sounds great to normies but they were just the kids that were nice to him. Fortunately it seems like high school has gotten a little better. I think bully kids have moved on and matured slightly. He's generally well liked but he definitely has trouble making more than surface connections. Ok venting done. All that is to say that the battles change and continue, but fortunately middle school appears to be the worst. You and your wife seem to be on the right track. Good luck.

As long as Vanguard is a no to the ETFs, I think there will be a premium to MSTR. How much remains to be seen. I’m going to hold for now since its behavior has been consistent.

Congrats that's awesome! I'm not sure what to make of Microstrategy. It's trading at more than twice the value of its bitcoin. During the last cycle that "premium" jumped to 6x. I don't see how it can make it that high this cycle when there's ETFs. People looking for proxies are what boosted it that high last time. That's why I don't understand the current 2x. I will continue to hold though. Still some interesting catalysts like S&P inclusion and of course animal spirits during bull run.

Pushing 70k today. MSTR at ATH. Things are looking good. @Snake Diggity copium levels inexorably rising.
