apparently software as we know it is dead
because Susan from accounting is going to vibe code a calendly alternative while on her lunch break
I think some of you need to go outside and speak to real people
@paranoidbull Also the article seems to imply that the majority of US consumers/technologists/gig economy employees will be using unbranded AI head units to build bespoke software that coordinates all of their consumer and professional activity. This is a fairly ridiculous premise.
If you're freaking out over the AI doom fiction circulating tonight, I can suggest an antidote. Read Chapter 7 of Henry Hazlitt's Economics In One Lesson, published in 1946.
@GeorgeSelgin The good news is, they didn’t “turn Bitcoin into” anything, because bitcoin itself is unchanged during that time.
These are simply shifting narratives around a rather fixed protocol. In other words, the fiat system has shaped itself around Bitcoin.
How do you know how many people were made rich? Seems that you are stating a highly dubious assumption as fact. You employ a time tested political dog whistle but with no substance.
Credit and therefore banks have existed on a hard money standard before. Bitcoin was never going to destroy banks.
I would characterize Roger's crusade for cheaper payments as incoherent but in the end it was just self serving, and misguided ideologues with only a surface understand of Bitcoin were then and obviously continue to be susceptible to his rhetoric.
Gold is out here trading like Fartcoin. I never want to hear from a gold bug again that "btc can't be money because it's too volatile." They've all lost their rights to say that to Bitcoiners.
I also never want to hear this nonsense again either: "It takes too much money to move the btc price now. Big moves are no longer possible." Bullsh*t. If a $36 trillion asset can move like a meme coin , a $1.5 trillion one can rocket more.
OK. Carry on and stack harder. You don't have enough bitcoin.
Novak Djokovic: “My kids don't have phones and won’t until they’re mature enough. They complain everyone at school has a phone except them. When everyone follows the herd, conformity is expected but it doesn’t have to be that way. That’s where we differ.”
Novak gets it

The GOAT @aantonop weighs in on the spam debate.

Introducing Nunchuk 2.0: Autonomous Inheritance.
The first assisted Bitcoin inheritance solution with an on‑chain failsafe. Designed to outlive the company that created it.

This quote is about the treacherous path one takes when first beginning the study of economics. It's from from "The Promises Men Live By" by Harry Scherman:
"Obviously there can be other avenues of approach to the subject; and the approach is all-important. The first few steps inevitably determine how far one shall get in understanding. The mere approach may lead one quickly to a bog, in which one wanders, weighted down, forever after."
It reminds me of many of my friends whose first and only exposure to economics is a movie about Wall Street, a perfunctory conversation with an advisor at a retail investment bank, or worst of all a college lecture course which takes for granted the very concept of money itself.
