  1. More: https://www.cato.org/blog/are-taxes-really-lower-california-texas It's all about the nuance.
  2. IIRC, Neon once professed in these forums to have a libertarian political bias, but lately he is an advocate for authoritarian lambasting of things he doesn't like. He's found a censorship hat that fits him and he likes it.
  3. Don't cancel me bro. Scammers - folks who violate the law - should be prosecuted. SBF will get what he deserves. Legal industries should not get debanked at the whim of the Executive branch no matter how much you consider them to be poopyheads.

  6. See linked article in OP and then post #4: https://www.pmbug.com/threads/gold-bitcoin-and-money.5076/
  7. The bottom 2 teams both made their beds with their dish selection. It doesn't take a James Beard award winner to figure out that Fish & Chips and Scottish Egg were both going to be the hardest dishes on the slate to elevate/reinterpret and execute well for ~48 portions. Amar is lucky he didn't go home for his bone headed lobbying for F&C. The Thai lady only has herself to blame for the Egg choice.
  8. That's not LIDO's fault. It's how Etherium2 was designed and rolled out. Last I heard, Etherium's Shanghai update is supposed to go live April 12. That update will allow everyone to unstake Etherium.
  9. I had been thinking about ordering a Ledger Nano X for some time. With Coinbase in the crosshairs of the Eye of Sauron, I finally got off my duff and ordered one. It arrived this morning and I spent some time getting it set up and transfering some crypto I owned on Coinbase over to it. It was pretty easy. https://shop.ledger.com/?referral_code=HW6BPZ0SQ9H5C If you were considering getting one, using that referral link to order should reward you with $10 of Bitcoin.

  12. Forum friend on another forum scored 382... And she has a neurological condition. Sometimes life just really humbles you, you know?
  13. Good evening sir. I see that you are interested in your own private money. I can assure you that this is a very popular subject! Allow me to introduce you to BolivarBucks, backed by the full faith and credit of me, yours truly, SimonBolivar. Would you like to hear a full presentation on the wonderful benefits of owning BolivarBucks?
  14. The problem is that smart people like yourself are not always going to be able to maintain policy within rational boundaries. People are dumb and they will overwhelm the system eventually. Our system allows for soft/rational boundaries but when they get abused, we set upon a path to find out what the hard boundaries are. Of course, when we get there, everything explodes/implodes. System design is fun. Faith in dumb people to do smart things is dumb.
  15. The Fed was created to give govco unrestrained spending flexibility. It's working as designed. It's a feature, not a bug. At least, that's what folks tell me when I posit that our monetary system is insane and will always Chaos Theory itself to this outcome because people are dumb.
  16. The API integration that I'm using is using the gpt-3.5 model which does not allow customizations. They have other models and I seem to recall seeing that you could pay for access to models that you can seed yourself, but I can't recall what page I saw that on. Some context here: https://platform.openai.com/docs/models

  18. Also, Kraken announced suspension of ACH processing for US customers. Choke Point 2.0 continues
  19. * bump * I added a ChatGPT integration to a site I own and have been playing around with it this morning. The quality of the output is definitely a function of the quality of the question, but it can put out some insightful responses.
  20. I predict 25bp and future guidance that another 25 bp hike next go 'round is likely pending data
