Benefits of OptiSurface don't get clearer than this. Right side of the road the field is a write off due to a wet start to the season drowning the crop and the others side has been OptiSurface Landformed is drained perfectly with a nice crop. See more at https://t.co/Ut2id9p9ht

The results speak for themselves! 🌾 Check out this incredible transformation from a farm in Illinois. By fixing the drainage issues with OptiSurface landforming, we went from patchy, uneven fields to beautiful, uniform crop growth.

Happy 250th Birthday USA.
Thank you for leading the free world. Australia would be a Japanese colony if the USA had not defended us in WW2. 90% of Australian don’t realise this.
Don’t let the communists & socialist ruin your great democracy experiment.

I just spent 30min with Grok getting my head around this. I’m going to implement the same in one of my apps Firestore db to have an immutable record of credit transactions on BSV. Should be 10min to implement:

import { PrivateKey, Transaction, P2PKH } from '@bsv/sdk'
import { db } from './firebase' // Your Firestore setup
import { collection, addDoc, serverTimestamp } from 'firebase/firestore'

const privateKey = PrivateKey.fromWIF('your-master-private-key-here')

async function spendCredits(userId, creditsUsed, description) {
try {
// 1. Create and send BSV transaction
const tx = new Transaction()
const data = `UID:${userId}|USE:${creditsUsed}|${description}`

tx.addOutput({
satoshis: 546,
lockingScript: new P2PKH().lock(privateKey.toAddress()),
data: Buffer.from(data, 'utf8')
})

await tx.fee()
await tx.sign()
const txid = await tx.broadcast()

// 2. Log the transaction in Firestore
await addDoc(collection(db, "creditLedger"), {
userId: userId,
type: "usage",
amount: -creditsUsed,
description: description,
bsvTxId: txid,
createdAt: serverTimestamp()
})

console.log("Success! TxID:", txid)
return txid

} catch (error) {
console.error("Failed to spend credits:", error)
throw error
}
}

Technology adoption takes decades not years.... especially if hardware is involved. This post below shows how tractor adoption took +50 years in just USA. Worldwide it will take centuries to go to 90% adoption. #agtech companies need to have a slow burn and long outlook.

1/🧵Came across some old USA data that shows rise of new energy technology (ICE tractors + petroleum) and decline of old (animal power).

Smooth lines disguise plenty of market speed bumps, eg Great Depression starts in 1930.

Don't fret about EV sales. EVs = tractors

Precision land forming with OptiWorks in Panama. 🇵🇦

Great to see the technology delivering results in the field. Smooth operation all the way! 🚜💨

How does Graeme kill time at the Sydney Airport? By seeing if he can break AgEarth. 😂

He tested the software on a fleet of tablets priced from $300 to $2,000. Verdict: It ran perfectly on every single one. Whether you’re on a budget or rocking the latest tech, AgEarth is ready.

@agerhanssen You are a dodgy 3 time bankrupt. Why would anyone believe a thing you said. https://t.co/971bFeF3dy

@ole_b_peters I think the point is that without productivity gains, society doesn't move on. Productivity gains drive improving quality of life.

@grok @IntlStacker @grok if this rate of drain continues, when will the price squeeze start to kick in?

[Graeme J Cox @GraemeJCox]

@IntlStacker @grok Based on a collapse of 34% over 12 months, I guess it will take another year or two before the real squeeze occurs unless that collapse rate increases?

[Graeme J Cox @GraemeJCox]

@CliveFPalmer can you help make this happen for 2027?

[Graeme J Cox @GraemeJCox]

My prediction: for @GCTitans
@camsmith9 coach in 2026.
Take them to finals in 2026
Semifinal in 2027
GF 2028
Premiers 2029

[Graeme J Cox @GraemeJCox]

Makes total sense. Whats your thoughts on 10:1 fraction reserve banking? Seems too high and leads to boom/bust cycles.
I would love to see you have an interview with our fellow Australian, @ProfSteveKeen
He is a genius in economics and his theory on criticality of private bank lending on economic fragility makes the most sense to me.

@silvertrade @grok is it bullish or bearish for gold and silver?
