In the ever-evolving world of Bitcoin mining, a new player has emerged, promising to revolutionize the way miners operate. OCEAN Bitcoin Mining (https://ocean.xyz) introduces a hybrid model that combines the autonomy of solo mining with the reduced variance of pool mining. This article delves into how OCEAN achieves this balance, offering miners the best of both worlds while maintaining Bitcoin's decentralized ethos.

Understanding Solo and Pool Mining

To appreciate OCEAN's innovation, it's essential to understand the traditional mining models: *** Solo Mining: In solo mining, an individual miner uses their computational power to solve the cryptographic puzzle required to add a new block to the Bitcoin blockchain. If successful, the miner receives the entire block reward, which includes newly minted bitcoins and transaction fees. Solo miners have full control over which transactions are included in their blocks. However, with the current difficulty of Bitcoin mining, solo miners with limited hash power face high variance—long periods without rewards followed by rare, large payouts. * Pool Mining**: Pool mining addresses the variance issue by allowing miners to combine their computational resources. When the pool finds a block, the reward is distributed among participants based on their contributed hash power. This provides more consistent, smaller payouts. However, the pool operator typically decides which transactions are included in the block, potentially leading to centralized control and censorship concerns.

How OCEAN Combines the Two

OCEAN Bitcoin Mining introduces a novel approach that merges the benefits of solo and pool mining: * DATUM (Decentralized Alternative Templates for Universal Mining): OCEAN empowers miners with DATUM, a system that allows them to create their own block templates. This means miners can decide which transactions to include in the blocks they are working on, similar to solo mining. Unlike traditional pool mining, the pool does not dictate transaction selection. * Pool Benefits: While miners maintain control over transaction selection, they also contribute their hash power to a collective effort, akin to pool mining. This increases the likelihood of finding a block, thereby reducing the variance in rewards. When a block is found, the miner who discovers it receives the full reward directly, and the block reflects their chosen transactions. Key Advantage: This setup eliminates the high variance associated with solo mining while preserving miners' autonomy. Miners enjoy more frequent opportunities to earn rewards due to the pool's combined power, yet they retain the freedom to select transactions, a feature typically lost in traditional pool mining.

Censorship Resistance

One of the most significant benefits of OCEAN's model is its resistance to transaction censorship: * In traditional pool mining, if a pool operator is pressured—perhaps by regulatory forces affecting entities like Tether—to exclude certain transactions, all miners in the pool are impacted. * With OCEAN and DATUM, even if some miners or entities are compelled to censor transactions, other miners in the pool can still include any valid transactions they choose. When these miners find a block, their selected transactions are added to the blockchain, effectively bypassing centralized control or censorship attempts. * This mechanism upholds Bitcoin's decentralized nature, ensuring that no single authority can dictate which transactions are processed, provided miners opt to include them.

Conclusion

OCEAN Bitcoin Mining represents a significant step forward in the mining landscape. By blending the autonomy of solo mining with the reduced variance of pool mining, OCEAN offers miners a unique opportunity to maintain control over their operations while enjoying more consistent rewards. Furthermore, its resistance to censorship reinforces Bitcoin's core principles of decentralization and freedom. As the mining industry continues to evolve, OCEAN stands out as a beacon of innovation, providing miners with the tools they need to thrive in a competitive and ever-changing environment.

April 20, 2020: The day I saw my so-called friends expose themselves as gutless, brain-dead sheep.

On that day, I shared a video exposing the damning history of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation's vaccine campaigns in Africa and the developing world. As Gates was on every TV screen, shilling COVID jabs that didn’t even exist, I called out his blatant financial conflict of interest and pointed out the obvious in my facebook post: "Finally someone is able to explain why Bill Gates runs from TV to TV to promote vaccination. Not surprisingly, it's all about money again…" - referencing his substantial investments in vaccine technology, including BioNTech's mRNA platform that would later produce the COVID vaccines and generate massive profits for his so-called philanthropic foundation.

The conflict of interest was undeniable. I genuinely believed anyone capable of basic critical thinking would at least pause to consider these glaring financial motives. But what followed was a masterclass in human stupidity.

My facebook post from 20 April 2020:

Not only was I branded a 'conspiracy theorist' for daring to question the billionaire who stood to make a fortune off the very vaccines he was shilling, but the brain-dead, logic-free bullshit vomited by the people around me was beyond pathetic. These barely literate morons couldn’t spell "Pfizer" without auto-correct, yet they mindlessly swallowed and repeated every lie the media and government force-fed them, branding anything that cracked their fragile reality as "conspiracy theory." Big Pharma’s rap sheet—fraud, deadly cover-ups, billions in fines—could fill libraries, yet these obedient sheep didn’t bother to open a single book or read a single study before screaming their ignorance, desperate to virtue-signal their obedience. Then, like spineless lab rats, they lined up for an experimental jab rushed to the market in months, too dumb to care that proper vaccine development takes a decade.

The pathetic part is that these idiots spend hours obsessing over reviews for their useless purchases like shoes or socks, but won’t spare 60 seconds to research the experimental cocktail being injected into their veins—or even glance at the FDA’s own damning safety reports. Those same obedient sheep would read every Yelp review for a fucking coffee shop but won't spend five minutes looking up Pfizer's criminal fraud settlements. They would demand absolute obedience to ‘The Science™’—while being unable to define mRNA, explain lipid nanoparticles, or justify why trials were still running as they queued up like cattle for their jab. If they had two brain cells to rub together or spent 30 minutes actually researching, they'd know, but no—they'd rather suck down the narrative like good little slaves, too dumb to question, too weak to think.

Worst of all, they became the system’s attack dogs—not just swallowing the poison, but forcing it down others’ throats. This wasn’t ignorance. It was betrayal. They mutated into medical brownshirts, destroying lives to virtue-signal their obedience—even as their own children’s hearts swelled with inflammation.

One conversation still haunts me to this day—a masterclass in wealth-worship delusion. A close friend, as a response to my facebook post, insisted that Gates’ assumed reading list magically awards him vaccine expertise, while dismissing his billion-dollar investments in the same products as ‘no conflict of interest.’ Worse, he argued that Gates’s $5–10 billion pandemic windfall was ‘deserved.’

This exchange crystallizes civilization’s intellectual surrender: reason discarded with religious fervor, replaced by blind faith in corporate propaganda.

The comment of a friend on my facebook post that still haunts me to this day:

Walking Away from the Herd

After a period of anger and disillusionment, I made a decision: I would no longer waste energy arguing with people who refused to think for themselves. If my circle couldn’t even ask basic questions—like why an untested medical intervention was being pushed with unprecedented urgency—then I needed a new community.

Fortunately, I already knew where to look. For three years, I had been involved in Bitcoin, a space where skepticism wasn’t just tolerated—it was demanded. Here, I’d met some of the most principled and independent thinkers I’d ever encountered. These were people who understood the corrupting influence of centralized power—whether in money, media, or politics—and who valued sovereignty, skepticism, and integrity. Instead of blind trust, bitcoiners practiced relentless verification. And instead of empty rhetoric, they lived by a simple creed: Don’t trust. Verify.

It wasn’t just a philosophy. It was a lifeline. So I chose my side and I walked away from the herd.

Finding My Tribe

Over the next four years, I immersed myself in Bitcoin conferences, meetups, and spaces where ideas were tested, not parroted. Here, I encountered extraordinary people: not only did they share my skepticism toward broken systems, but they challenged me to sharpen it.

No longer adrift in a sea of mindless conformity, I’d found a crew of thinkers who cut through the noise. They saw clearly what most ignored—that at the core of society’s collapse lay broken money, the silent tax on time, freedom, and truth itself. But unlike the complainers I’d left behind, these people built. They coded. They wrote. They risked careers and reputations to expose the rot. Some faced censorship; others, mockery. All understood the stakes.

These weren’t keyboard philosophers. They were modern-day Cassandras, warning of inflation’s theft, the Fed’s lies, and the coming dollar collapse—not for clout, but because they refused to kneel to a dying regime. And in their defiance, I found something rare: a tribe that didn’t just believe in a freer future. They were engineering it.

April 20, 2024: No more herd. No more lies. Only proof-of-work.

On April 20, 2024, exactly four years after my last Facebook post, the one that severed my ties to the herd for good—I stood in front of Warsaw’s iconic Palace of Culture and Science, surrounded by 400 bitcoiners who felt like family. We were there to celebrate Bitcoin’s fourth halving, but it was more than a protocol milestone. It was a reunion of sovereign individuals. Some faces I’d known since the early days; others, I’d met only hours before. We bonded instantly—heated debates, roaring laughter, zero filters on truths or on so called conspiracy theories.

As the countdown to the halving began, it hit me: This was the antithesis of the hollow world I’d left behind. No performative outrage, no coerced consensus—just a room of unyielding minds who’d traded the illusion of safety for the grit of truth. Four years prior, I’d been alone in my resistance. Now, I raised my glass among my people - those who had seen the system's lies and chosen freedom instead. Each had their own story of awakening, their own battles fought, but here we shared the same hard-won truth.

The energy wasn’t just electric. It was alive—the kind that emerges when free people build rather than beg. For the first time, I didn’t just belong. I was home. And in that moment, the halving’s ticking clock mirrored my own journey: cyclical, predictable in its scarcity, revolutionary in its consequences. Four years had burned away the old world. What remained was stronger.

No Regrets

Leaving the herd wasn’t a choice—it was evolution. My soul shouted: "I’d rather stand alone than kneel with the masses!". The Bitcoin community became more than family; they’re living proof that the world still produces warriors, not sheep. Here, among those who forge truth, I found something extinct elsewhere: hope that burns brighter with every halving, every block, every defiant mind that joins the fight.

Change doesn’t come from the crowd. It starts when one person stops applauding.

Today, I stand exactly where I always wanted to be—shoulder-to-shoulder with my true family: the rebels, the builders, the ungovernable. Together, we’re building the decentralized future.

Bis in die Jahre 1 v. C., vor Corona, also bis 2019, lebte Deutschland in einer erträglichen Demokratie, an der es auch von damals kritischen Menschen zurecht immer schon reichlich auszusetzen gab. Aber es war auszuhalten, manchmal sogar richtig fein, es gab Zufriedenheit und gelegentlich sogar Glücksmomente. Die Kritiker hatten damals noch das Gefühl, frei ihre Meinung sagen zu können. Der Staat respektierte die Privatsphäre, auch wenn immer wieder Versuche gestartet wurden, in Angelegenheiten der Bürger Einblick zu gewinnen, die den Staat nichts angehen.

Man hatte die Möglichkeit, sich Nischen zu suchen, die eine Lebensqualität boten, mit dem Gefühl, man habe die Möglichkeit, der Staat rückt einem nicht allzu sehr auf die Pelle. Man war dazu bereit, die Konsequenzen für diese Freiheit in Kauf zu nehmen, weil einem andere Werte wichtiger waren, als zum Beispiel brav am Konsum teilzunehmen. Es gab Vorwürfe, man sei Konsumverweigerer, worauf stets die Antwort kam: Nein, nicht Konsumverweigerer, sondern Konsumverzichter. Verzichter deshalb, weil in Verzicht die freie Wahl enthalten ist. Konsumverweigerer ist ein Begriff aus dem System, der beschreibt, dass man sich durch seine Zurückhaltung im Konsum dem System verweigert.

Nach inzwischen fünf Jahren fängt es an schwer zu fallen, sich an das damalige Lebensgefühl zu erinnern.

Mit Corona sind, im Nachhinein betrachtet, die Schleusen für etwas aufgegangen, das man so nie für möglich gehalten hätte.

Als ob die miesesten Charaktere nur auf eine Gelegenheit gewartet hätten, endlich loslegen zu können, wird seitdem der Wahnsinn ununterbrochen über uns ausgeschüttet. Grundrechte wurden ausgehebelt, Zwangsmaßnahmen durchgesetzt, die Menschen wurden genötigt, einen Gehorsamkeitsbeweis vor dem Mund zu tragen, sie wurden in ihrer Mobilität eingeschränkt, Kinder wurden ihrer Kindheit und Bildung beraubt, es folgte eine absurde Verfügung nach der anderen. Heute, nachdem die allermeisten sogenannten Verschwörungstheorien wahr geworden sind, wissenschaftlich widerlegt und als sinnentleert entlarvt wurden, besteht nicht das geringste Interesse an einer wirklichen Aufarbeitung. Die lächerlichen Talkrunden im Staatsfunkt täuschen lediglich eine Aufarbeitungs-Simulation vor. Und es gibt immer noch genug Menschen, die darauf reinfallen und das perfide Spiel nicht durchschauen.

Mit Corona wurde auch die Spaltung der Gesellschaft vorangetrieben. Ein Austausch unter Freunden zu unterschiedlichen Einstellungen zu der sogenannten Impfung kam zum Erliegen. Stattdessen zog eine neue „Qualität“ ein, das dröhnende Schweigen, bis heute. Langjährige Freundschaften gingen zu ende, Risse taten sich in Familien auf, die teilweise bis heute nicht verheilt sind. Bestenfalls werden sie mit Totschweigen übergebügelt, damit ein halbwegs normaler Alltag überhaupt möglich ist. Im Unterbewusstsein brodelt es dennoch, das Thema ist ja nicht weg. Und der Tag wird kommen, an dem all das Unterdrückte mit aller Macht an die Oberfläche dringt und der ohnehin immense psychischen Schaden bei vielen Menschen beängstigende Auswirkungen haben wird.

Die Deutschen waren im 2. Weltkrieg sowohl Täter als auch Opfer. In beiden Fällen hat das ein Trauma ausgelöst. Das inszenierte Wirtschaftswunder hat die Menschen davon abgelenkt, dass sie sich mit ihrer eigenen Vergangenheit und ihrem Verhalten hätten auseinandersetzen müssen. Daraus hat sich der Glaube entwickelt, dass, wenn man schön brav und fleißig ist, dann wird die Welt uns schon irgendwann einmal wieder liebhaben.

Auf dieses nicht aufgearbeitete Trauma, dessen Folgen noch die zweite Generation zu spüren bekommt, ist jetzt ein weiteres gesellschaftliches Trauma aufgesetzt worden, und die Wahrscheinlichkeit ist groß, dass auch das nicht aufgearbeitet werden wird.

Was will man von so einer Gesellschaft erwarten?

Damit noch nicht genug, gewannen die Schlagzeilen zum Konflikt in der Ukraine die Oberhand, die Corona weitgehend verdrängten. Wieder machte sich Angst breit. Wird es einen Krieg geben? Die Vorgeschichte zum Ukraine-Konflikt wurde im Mainstream weitgehend unter den Teppich gekehrt. Die Frage nach dem eigenen Anteil des sogenannten Wertewestens an diesem Konflikt? Fehlanzeige! Passt nicht ins Narrativ. Aus diesem Konflikt, der, wie die Russen es nennen, militärischen Sonderoperation, ist allmählich ein ausgewachsener Krieg geworden. Ein klarer Stellvertreterkrieg zwischen den USA und Russland, auf dem Rücken der Ukraine, die sich durch Selensky vor den Karren spannen lassen hat. Bereits einen Monat nach Ausbruch des Konflikts war ein Frieden zum Greifen nahe. Dank des Westens konnte dies erfolgreich verhindert werden.

Aber diesen Elefanten im Raum will niemand wirklich sehen, geschweige denn, das zugeben. Die aktuelle Regierung in den USA hat nun die Aufgabe, die Scherben zu kitten, die die Vorgängerregierung verursacht hat. Dabei geht es nicht nur um Nächstenliebe, und das sinnlose Töten zu beenden, sondern auch um eine Möglichkeit, sich gesichtswahrend aus der Affaire zu ziehen. In erster Linie geht es um Interessen, nicht um „ein paar Menschenleben mehr oder weniger“.

Damit aber immer noch nicht genug, stellt sich Europa, den Friedensbemühungen zwischen den Großmächten USA und Russland in den Weg, verlängert damit das Sterben, statt diese Bemühungen zu unterstützen.

Zu Anfang von Corona haben viele geglaubt, was da abgeht, ist so absurd, das kann nicht lange dauern, dann klärt sich das auf. Seit fünf Jahren werden wir eines Besseren belehrt, denn die Absurditäten, der Wahnsinn will schier kein Ende nehmen. Und immer, wenn man denkt, schlimmer geht’s nimmer, kommt einer daher, und beweist das Gegenteil.

Um diesen Irrsinn immer weiter voranzutreiben, werden inzwischen nach der Bedienungsanleitung von George Orwells „1984“ Begriffe umgedeutet: Krieg ist Frieden, Spaltung ist Zusammenhalt, Zensur ist der Schutz vor Desinformation, Schulden sind Sondervermögen, usw. usw. usw.. Tschüss, gute alte Demokratie, willkommen in Unseredemokratie. Auch so ein Kunstwort, hinter der sich die unterschiedlichsten anti-demokratischen Tendenzen verbergen.

Eine vollständige Auflistung des Irrsinns würde den Rahmen des Möglichen sprengen.

Man fragt sich, was aufgrund der endlosen, oft menschenverachtenden, aber auf jeden Fall mindestens unmenschlichen Lebensbedingungen auf der Metaebene los ist, dass ein großer Teil der Menschheit, besonders der westlichen Welt, speziell in Europa, vollkommen den Verstand verloren hat.

Man kann es eigentlich nicht anders erklären, als dass das Böse die Macht ergriffen hat, dass die politischen Entscheidungsträger vom Teufel, oder wie auch immer man es nennen will, besessen sind.

Kräfte, ob gute oder schlechte, suchen sich immer Menschen, durch die sie wirken können.

Es bräuchte einen gesellschaftlichen Exorzismus, der diesen politischen Fehlbesetzungen den Teufel aus dem Leib treibt, doch auch leider ist ein großer Teil der Bevölkerung ebenso vom Teufel besessen, sitzt wie das Kaninchen vor der Schlange, empört sich vielleicht, kommt aber nicht von der Chips-Tüte auf dem Sofa vor dem Fernseher los, ist nicht in der Lage, seinen eigenen Untergang zu verhindern. Stattdessen schreit es innerlich nach einem, der da kommen soll, um sie zu retten. Das erinnert an die bisher dunkelsten Zeiten Deutschlands, von denen sich herausgestellt hat, dass der Retter kein Retter war.

Merz, noch nicht einmal im Amt, kündigt die Möglichkeit der Lieferung von Taurus-Raketen an. Russland erklärt, dass es das als Deutschlands Eintritt in den Ukraine-Krieg bewerten würde. Putin ordnet einseitig eine Waffenruhe über Ostern an, aber Putin ist immer noch der Böse, will Deutschland unbedingt angreifen, ist eine Bedrohung für die westlichen Werte, die Freiheit und die Demokratie. Das ist ein nicht zu überbietender Hohn.

Mit normalem Hausverstand ist das nicht zu begreifen. Es ist einfach nur irre. Und die Deutschen sitzen da und schauen zu. Bis auf wenige Ausnahmen, der Rest Europas übrigens auch. Der aller größte Teil der Menschen in Europa sitzt ruhig auf den Eisenbahnschienen und wartet darauf, dass der Zug kommt und sie überfährt.

Gerade an Ostern, der Zeit der Friedensbewegungen, der Ostermärsche. Wo sind die Massen, die vor den Regierungssitzen der europäischen Hauptstädte stehen, Frieden rufen und nicht mehr weggehen, und die wahnsinnigen Verantwortlichen dazu zwingen, mit dem Irrsinn aufzuhören, der die Welt in einen dritten Weltenbrand führen kann?

Stattdessen regt man sich darüber auf, dass der Osterbraten auch schon wieder teurer geworden ist, aber was will man machen. Lasst uns wenigstens über die Osterfeiertage mal eine gute Zeit haben. Und dann kommt auch noch oft der Satz, der einen aus dem Anzug springen lässt: Ich alleine kann ja sowieso nichts machen. Ein Satz, den wahrscheinlich rund 60 Millionen Deutsche sagen. Wie irre ist das denn?

Ohne, dass das Volk in Deutschland, die Völker in Europa, nicht aufstehen, und mit aller Härte NEIN sagen, gibt es keine Anzeichen dafür, dass es die Entscheidungsträger von alleine tun werden und das führt unweigerlich in die Katastrophe.

Was kann getan werden, damit die guten Kräfte wieder die Oberhand gewinnen, oder müssen wir lernen zu akzeptieren, dass wir verloren sind?

Leider ist es nicht möglich, schöne Ostern 2025 zu wünschen, denn es sind keine.

An dieser Stelle ein Schmankerl, dass an Geschmacklosigkeit und Geschichtsvergessenheit nicht zu überbieten ist:

https://www.swr.de/swraktuell/baden-wuerttemberg/tuebingen/ostern-zuckerhasen-mit-kriegsmotiven-tuebingen-100.html

Am liebsten möchte man schreien: „Hört auf! Und wenn einige Millionen Menschen allein in Deutschland das täten, dann würde man es schon hören. Aber was hört man? Besinnliche Feiertagsstille, gruselig.

Seit fünf Jahren macht sich ein Zeitgeist breit, dessen Abstand zum Menschsein, zum friedlichen Miteinander und einträglichen Austausch nicht größer sein könnte. Und ein Ende ist nicht in Sicht. Zukunftspläne schmieden? Wie denn, wenn man heute nicht weiß, ob einem nicht morgen schon die erste Kugel um die Ohren fliegt, weil wir, der Souverän nicht in der Lage gewesen sind, für Frieden ohne Waffen und Töten und Freiheit einzustehen.

Und diejenigen, die den Hintern nicht hochbekommen haben, sind die ersten, die dann klagen: Ach hätten wir doch! Wie konnte das geschehen? Das kam alles so plötzlich. Was hätte ich denn tun sollen? Wieder wird verdrängt und sich selbst belogen, nur, um vor sich selbst zu rechtfertigen, dass man im Grunde genommen ein Waschlappen ist und doch eigentlich sehr an seinem jämmerlichen Leben hängt.

Das einzige, was wirklich noch Hoffnung macht und Kraft gibt, sind die engagierten, propagandaresistenten Widerständler, die sich nach Kräften bemühen, die Wahrheit hochzuhalten, sich mit gesundem Hausverstand zu äußern, in der Hoffnung, dass sie den einen oder anderen Menschen außerhalb der „Blase“ erreichen, um ihn von der dunklen Seite der Macht ins Licht gehen zu lassen: Ja, bitte geh‘ unbedingt ins Licht, Carol Ann und alle anderen auch!

The world won’t stop and wait for you to recover.

Do your duty regardless of how you feel. That’s the only guarantee you’ll end the day alright.

You’ve heard it before: “The worst workout is the one you didn’t do.” Sometimes you don’t feel like going to the gym. You start bargaining with laziness: “I didn’t sleep well… maybe I should skip today.” But then you go anyway, committing only to the bare minimum your energy allows. And once you start, your body outperforms your mind’s assumptions—it turns out to be one of the best workouts you’ve had in a long time. The feeling of following through, of winning a battle you were losing, gives you the confidence to own the rest of your day. You finally feel good.

And that wouldn’t have happened if you stayed home waiting to feel better. Guilt would’ve joined forces with discouragement, and you’d be crushed by melancholy in a victim mindset. That loss would bleed into the rest of your week, conditioning your mind: because you didn’t spend your energy on the workout, you’d stay up late, wake up worse, and while waiting to feel “ready,” you’d lose a habit that took months of effort to build.

When in doubt, just do your duty. Stick to the plan. Don’t negotiate with your feelings—outsmart them. “Just one page today,” and you’ll end up reading ten. “Only the easy tasks,” and you’ll gain momentum to conquer the hard ones. Laziness is a serpent—you win when you make no deals with it.

A close friend once told me that when he was at his limit during a second job shift, he’d open a picture on his phone—of a fridge or a stove he needed to buy for his home—and that image gave him strength to stay awake. That moment stuck with me forever.

Do you really think the world will have the same mercy on you that you have on yourself? Don’t be surprised when it doesn’t spare you. Move forward even while stitching your wounds: “If you wait for perfect conditions, you’ll never do anything.” (Ecclesiastes 11:4)

Thank you for reading, my friend!

My friend, let yourself be deluded for a moment, and reality will see to it that your fantasy is shattered—like a hammer crushing marble. The real world grants no mercy; it will relentlessly tear down your aspirations, casting them into the abyss of disillusionment and burying your dreams under the unbearable weight of your own expectations. It’s an inescapable fate—but the outcome is still in your hands: perish at the bottom like a wretch or turn the pit into a trench.

Davvero, everyone must eventually face something that breaks them. It is in devastation that man discovers what he is made of, and in the silence of defeat that he hears the finest advice. Yet the weak would rather embrace the convenient lie of self-pity, blaming life for failures that are, in truth, the result of their own negligence and cowardly choices. If you hide behind excuses because you fear the painful truth, know this: the responsibility has always been yours.

Ascolta bene! Just remain steadfast, even when everything feels like an endless maze. The difficulties you face today—those you believe you’ll never overcome—will one day seem insignificant under the light of time and experience. Tomorrow, you’ll look back and laugh at yourself for ever letting these storms seem so overwhelming.

Now, it’s up to you to fight your own battle—for the evil day spares no one. Don’t let yourself be paralyzed by shock or bow before adversity. Be strong and of good courage—not as one who waits for relief, but as one prepared to face the inevitable and turn pain into glory.

Thank you for reading, my friend!

Der Münchner Pianist und "Musikdurchdringer" Jürgen Plich stellt jeden Dienstag um 20 Uhr große klassische Musik vor. Er teilt seine Hör- und Spielerfahrung und seine persönliche Sicht auf die Meisterwerke. Er spielt selbst besondere, unbekannte Aufnahmen, erklärt, warum die Musik so und nicht anders klingt und hat eine Menge aus dem Leben der Komponisten zu erzählen.

Im Februar 2022 schlug die Betriebskrankenkasse ProVita Alarm: Die Covid-19-Vakzine, die Gesundheitsminister Karl Lauterbach 2021 als „mehr oder weniger nebenwirkungsfrei“ anpries, seien von offizieller Seite massiv unterschätzt worden. Hochgerechnet auf ganz Deutschland bedeute dies, „dass circa 4-5 Prozent der geimpften Menschen wegen Impfnebenwirkungen in ärztlicher Behandlung waren“, sagte der damalige ProVita-Vorstand Andreas Schöfbeck. Die „nebenwirkungsfreien Impfungen“ erwiesen sich ebenso als Teil einer staatlichen Propaganda wie die angebliche „Pandemie der Ungeimpften“.

https://soundcloud.com/radiomuenchen/bundesregierung-bezahlt-pharma-anwalte-von-multipolar?

Um das Zulassungsverfahren der Covid-Vakzine abzukürzen, übernahm die Bundesregierung die Haftung für die beteiligten Pharmakonzerne und damit auch deren Anwaltskosten, sollten betroffene Bürger wegen Schäden durch Impfnebenwirkungen klagen. Wie das Magazin Multipolar berichtet, kostete diese Haftungsfreistellung der Konzerne die Steuerzahler in über 1.000 Verfahren wegen Impfschäden bislang einen zweistelligen Millionenbetrag. Laut Rechtsanwalt Tobias Ulbrich übersteige diese Summe allerdings die gesetzlich geregelten Anwaltskosten bei weitem.\ Hören Sie den Beitrag: „Bundesregierung bezahlt Pharma-Anwälte“, der zunächst bei Multipolar erschienen war: multipolar-magazin.de/meldungen/0227?s=09

Jeder kann heute eine beliebige Identität annehmen, egal welches Geschlecht oder welche Tiergattung. Eine Identität soll zukünftig allerdings nicht mehr zur Disposition stehen: die digitale.

So droht der Koalitionsvertrag unmissverständlich: „Jeder Bürger und jede Bürgerin erhält verpflichtend ein Bürgerkonto und eine digitale Identität.“ Diese Zwangsbeglückung mag auf den ersten Blick harmlos erscheinen. Mit Blick über den großen Teich aber, bekommen wir einen Vorgeschmack auf das potenzielle Ungemach einer solchen e-ID.

Norbert Häring zeichnet das Szenario, das uns in Deutschland mit der obligatorischen e-ID ins Haus steht.

I'm not a gamer and don't know much about this one, or any games for that matter, but some folks may be interested in getting in at the start.

Go-time is noon EST today, I believe.

I do get a kick out of the line "Free dopamine and tears."

Der Chefredakteur war freundlich am Telefon und etwas zerknirscht. Dafür kassieren wir eine Rüge, ganz klar, sagte Hannes Lehner sinngemäß. Er habe mit seiner Redaktion gesprochen, noch einmal an die journalistische Sorgfaltspflicht erinnert, nachzulesen zum Beispiel im Pressekodex des Deutschen Presserates, und die Abläufe so verändert, dass so etwas nicht noch einmal passieren könne. Außerdem sei die Redaktion bereit, mir etwas Gutes zu tun, wenn ich denn eine Idee hätte.

Ich schreibe das hier etwas salopp aus dem Gedächtnis. Hintergrund ist einer dieser üblen Texte, die in der Regionalpresse immer dort aufploppen, wo Menschen öffentlich auftreten, die im kollektiven Gedächtnis gebrandmarkt sind. Querdenker, Putinversteher, Leugner von diesem und jenem. Die Details kann man unten nachlesen und dort auch das Meisterwerk von Andrea Weidemann genießen, immerhin Redaktionsleiterin Plattling-Deggendorf-Osterhofen in der Mediengruppe Attenkofer, die für das Straubinger Tagblatt steht. Veröffentlicht wurde der Text dort am 30. November 2024 auf der Titelseite des Lokalteils in Plattling. Am nächsten Tag habe ich Patrik Baab im Wohnzimmer von Plattling interviewt. Der Saal war voll, trotz oder wegen des Weidemann-Artikels.

Mein Punkt hier ist: Es lohnt sich, solche Angriffe nicht einfach auf sich beruhen zu lassen. Ich hatte es vor zwei Jahren schon einmal versucht beim Presserat und verloren in einer Sache, die viel größer war – mit drei zu zwei Stimmen bei zwei Enthaltungen. Wer weiß. Die Beschwerde ist online, und jeder mag sich selbst ein Urteil bilden. Diesmal war das Urteil auf Ebene eins einstimmig (Beschwerde ist begründet) und auf Ebene zwei fast einstimmig (sechs zu eins): eine Missbilligung, die zwar nicht abgedruckt werden muss, aber in diesem Fall doch sollte („als Ausdruck fairer Berichterstattung“).

Warum es keine Rüge gab, Höchststrafe im Presserat-Kosmos, wissen allein die Götter. Weiter begründet wird das nicht. Das Schreiben des Presserates, immerhin drei eng bedruckte Seiten, wäre ein Thema für sich. Es gelingt den Kollegen dort nicht einmal, den Weidemann-Artikel fehlerfrei zusammenzufassen. So macht mich der Presserat zum Gründer des „Querdenker-Blattes” Demokratischer Widerstand – zu viel der Ehre. Viel wichtiger als irgendwelche Strafen ist aber ohnehin das Gespräch – gerade dort, wo man sich kennt und wo sich jeder Journalist leicht selbst ein Bild machen kann, bevor er in die Tasten haut und Kritiker an den Pranger stellt. Ich bin froh, dass Hannes Lehner zum Telefonhörer gegriffen und auch öffentlich Abbitte geleistet hat, bevor der Presserat sich äußern konnte. Die Zitate, um die es ging, wurden aus der Onlineversion entfernt – genau wie die Bezahlschranke, damit möglichst viele die Entschuldigung sehen. Ich werde dem Chefredakteur vorschlagen, einen seiner Leute zu den nächsten Veranstaltungen der Initiative „Deggendorf miteinander“ zu schicken, und kann mir kaum vorstellen, dass es keine gute Presse gibt, wenn man die Menschen dort erlebt und sich in die Augen gesehen hat.

Beschwerde beim Deutschen Presserat (9. Dezember 2024)

Gegenstand

Diese Beschwerde bezieht sich auf einen Artikel von Andrea Weidemann, der am 30. November 2024 im Plattlinger Anzeiger erschienen ist („Kritiker beantworten kritische Fragen nicht“).

Beschwerdegrund

Der Artikel verstößt gegen die Pressekodex-Ziffern 1, 2 und 9. Die Autorin legt mir zwei wörtliche Zitate in den Mund, die (wenn sie denn wahr wären) nicht nur geeignet sind, meine Ehre zu verletzen (Ziffer 9), sondern es mir auch unmöglich machen würden, weiter als bayerischer Beamter zu wirken. Eine „wahrhaftige Unterrichtung der Öffentlichkeit“ (Ziffer 1) wäre dabei nicht schwer gewesen, wenn Frau Weidemann sorgfältig gearbeitet (Ziffer 2) oder mir die entsprechenden Zitate vor der Veröffentlichung vorgelegt hätte. Es gab vorab einen Mailaustausch (siehe Punkt 3), der sich aber auf etwas ganz anders bezog und mich schon vor der Veröffentlichung daran zweifeln ließ, dass die Ziffern 1 und 2 des Pressekodex Richtschnur des Arbeitens von Andrea Weidemann sind.

Vorgeschichte / Mailaustausch

Für den 1. Dezember 2024 hatte die Initiative „Deggendorf miteinander“ in der Nachbarstadt Plattling eine Buchlesung von Patrik Baab angekündigt und mich gebeten, die Ausführungen des Kollegen wissenschaftlich einzuordnen. Der Titel der Veranstaltung („Wie uns Medien und Lohnschreiber in Kriege treiben“) entsprach dem Untertitel des Buchs „Propaganda-Presse“, das Patrik Baab im Sommer in der Reihe „Hintergrund kompakt“ veröffentlicht hat. Am 27. November erhielt ich folgende Mail:

Sehr geehrter Herr Meyen, in der Hoffnung, dass ich als Mitarbeiterin der Plattlinger Redaktion der Mediengruppe Attenkofer für Sie nicht in die Kategorie „Propaganda-Medium“ falle, hätte ich zu Ihrer Veranstaltungsteilnahme am kommenden Sonntag in Plattling/Niederbayern folgende Fragen: 1. Auf der Suche nach näheren Informationen zu Ihrer Person habe ich mehrfach gelesen, dass Sie der Ansicht sind, dass die (Leit-)Medien bewusst auf die Gesellschaft Einfluss nehmen, also manipulieren. Welche Belege haben Sie dafür? Und: Gilt das Ihrer Ansicht nach für alle Medien? Und für alle Themenbereiche? 2. Auch haben Sie sich kritisch zu journalistischen Faktencheckern geäußert und Sie als Propagandamaschinen bezeichnet. Heißt das, dass auch Medien wie z.B. Correctiv Ihrer Meinung nach nicht glaubwürdig sind? 3. Wenn man heute von Medien spricht, muss man vor allem das Internet im Blick behalten. Ist es nicht so, dass gerade dort ungefilterte (Falsch-)Informationen verbreitet werden? Für eine zeitnahe Rückmeldung wäre ich Ihnen sehr dankbar. Mit besten Grüßen, Andrea Weidemann, Redaktionsleitung Plattling-Deggendorf-Osterhofen

Eine solche Beschwerde ist nicht der Ort, sich im Detail mit diesen Fragen auseinanderzusetzen. Ich will deshalb nur darauf hinweisen, dass es hier schlicht keine vernünftigen Antworten gab. Frage 1 beschreibt gewissermaßen die Geschäftsgrundlage von Journalismus und Medienforschung. Wenn man nicht von Wirkungen ausgehen würde, könnten sich beide Berufsgruppen die Arbeit sparen. Zum Thema „Glaubwürdigkeit der Medien“ (Frage 2) habe ich mich 2001 habilitiert und schon seinerzeit darauf hingewiesen, dass es sich hierbei um keine sinnvolle Kategorie für die Bewertung journalistischer Leistungen handelt. Frage 3 ist suggestiv und so allgemein formuliert, dass eigentlich nur ein „Ja“ möglich ist. Ich habe deshalb am nächsten Morgen eher ironisch geantwortet und die Kollegin zugleich an die Berufstugenden erinnert:

Was soll ich dazu sagen, liebe Andrea Weidemann? Sie finden im Internet komische Sachen über mich und fragen dann, ob dort Falschinfos verbreitet werden. Am besten (das ist ja auch das Credo von Patrik Baab): Sie kommen am Sonntag und machen sich selbst ein Bild. Bis dahin mit den besten Grüßen

Antwort:

Sehr geehrter Herr Meyen, natürlich werde ich am Sonntag anwesend sein. Trotzdem schade, dass sie auf meine Fragen nicht antworten. Ich habe keine „komischen Sachen“ gelesen, sondern konkrete Aussagen von Ihnen zitiert. Darf ich noch mit einer Stellungnahme rechnen?

Frau Weidemann war dann nicht bei der Veranstaltung, hat aber vorab den Artikel veröffentlicht, über den ich mich hier beschwere.

Falschzitate

Beide Zitate befinden sich im vierten Absatz des Artikels, der offensichtlich darauf abzielt, ein „Porträt“ von Michael Meyen zu liefern. Dass mein Leben und mehr als 20 Jahre auf einer Professur für Kommunikationswissenschaft an der LMU München dabei auf die beiden Ausgaben der Wochenzeitung Demokratischer Widerstand (DW) reduziert werden, in denen ich als einer von vier „Herausgebern“ genannt werde, mag schlechter Stil sein. Wenn allerdings mit Anführungszeichen (also als wörtliches Zitat markiert) behauptet wird, ich hätte Deutschland als „Spritzenmörder-Diktatur“ bezeichnet, hört der Spaß auf. Ich habe im März 2002 einen Eid auf die bayerische Verfassung geschworen und würde mich mit einer solchen Aussage selbst ins Abseits stellen und meine berufliche Zukunft aufs Spiel setzen. Dazu kommt, dass der Plattlinger Anzeiger in einer Region erscheint, die seit mehr als dreieinhalb Jahren meine Wahlheimat ist. Eine solche Falschberichterstattung ist so geeignet, meine Reputation auch über mein berufliches Wirken hinaus nachhaltig zu beschädigen.

Das gilt so in etwas abgeschwächter Form auch für das zweite Zitat. Nach einer Zusammenfassung zum Wirken besagter Wochenzeitung folgt „Meyens Meinung“, wieder in Anführungszeichen und mir damit wortwörtlich in den Mund gelegt: „Die Medien haben sich der Propaganda der NATO vollumfänglich unterworfen.“

Ich kann nur mutmaßen, von wem beide Zitate stammen. „Propaganda der NATO“ ist nicht mein Thema, Pauschalisierungen wie „die Medien“ liegen mir fern, und ich würde den Teufel tun, die Bundesrepublik Deutschland als „Diktatur“ zu bezeichnen oder das Wort „Spritzenmörder“ in den Mund zu nehmen (wie auch das Wort „vollumfänglich“, aber das nur am Rande). Falls beide Zitate im DW gestanden haben sollten: Ich habe meine „Beziehung“ zu dieser Wochenzeitung in einem Buch behandelt (Wie ich meine Uni verlor, 2023) und außerdem eine Stellungnahme veröffentlicht (In eigener Sache, 9. Mai 2024).

Dort steht auch, dass ich gegen die Disziplinarstrafe klage, von der Andrea Weidemann zu berichten weiß (verhängt allerdings nicht „von der LMU“, sondern von der Landesanwaltschaft, einer internen Ermittlungsbehörde). Das Verfahren läuft noch. Die Kürzung der „Bezüge um zehn Prozent“ ist folglich ausgesetzt. Ich könnte mich hier also auch wegen eines Verstoßes gegen Ziffer 13 beschweren.

Zusammengefasst: Andrea Weidemann zielt mit ihrem Text darauf ab, meine Ehre zu verletzen, meine Reputation in Frage zu stellen und die Leser ihrer Zeitung so davon abzuhalten, die Lesung von Patrik Baab am folgenden Tag zu besuchen. Die Autorin legt mir dazu zwei Zitate in den Mund, die nicht von mir stammen. Statt diese Zitate von mir bestätigen zu lassen, schickt sie in einer Mail das, was sie offenbar unter „kritischen Fragen“ versteht (Überschrift des Artikels), und wundert sich dann auch noch, dass es darauf keine Antworten gibt. Der Beitrag verstößt gegen die Ziffern 1, 2 und 9 des Pressekodex und würde auch bei Ziffer 13 einer näheren Prüfung nicht standhalten.

Satoshi’s Time-Traveling for Knowledge #4: Liberland 2024 – Freedom Under Siege

---

What is Liberland?

While digging through old decentralized forums archived on the Interchain, Satoshi came across a curious name: Liberland.

“A sovereign libertarian micronation on the Danube? Founded in 2015 via Terra nullius? Built on the principles of freedom, voluntaryism, and Bitcoin? And I’ve never heard of it?”

Intrigued, Satoshi began to research. The story was almost too good to be true. A 7-square-kilometer patch of unclaimed land between Croatia and Serbia, turned into a symbol of decentralized governance and individual liberty.
No taxes unless voluntary. Bitcoin as the national currency. A digital nation-state with thousands of registered e-citizens, and even its own constitution. And yet—no recognition, no borders, and no peace.

His curiosity turned into determination. He calibrated the temporal coordinates on his chrono-node to the Danube River in 2024, a year rumored to be turbulent for the Free Republic of Liberland.

When he arrived, reality struck harder than the legend.

---

Freedom Under Siege

The nation was under siege.

The scent of burnt wood and trampled earth lingered in the air as Satoshi stepped into what remained of the Liberland settlement. Broken structures, crushed solar panels, and a few scattered personal belongings were all that testified to the once-vibrant hub of liberty pioneers.

He found a group of residents—mud-streaked, exhausted, but defiant—gathered around the remnants of a communal kitchen. One of them, wearing a weathered Liberland t-shirt and a crypto-wallet hardware device on a chain around his neck, greeted him:

"You're not with them, are you?"

Satoshi shook his head.

"Just... passing through. What happened here?"

The man’s voice trembled between rage and sorrow:

"On the International Day of Peace, no less. Croatian police raided us. Bulldozers came with them. Took everything—generators, comms gear, even our medical tents. Claimed it was 'illegal occupation of Croatian forestry land.' But no court, no hearing. Just force."

Satoshi listened, taking mental snapshots of their faces, their words, their pain. He thought about the dream—of a place built voluntarily, where people governed themselves, free from coercion.
But that dream was burning at the edges, like the collapsed tents scattered behind them.

---

Reflections Under the Stars

As night fell over the Danube, Satoshi sat alone, watching the stars reflect on the black water. Thoughts spiraled:

"Decentralization... is beautiful. But without protection, it's fragile."

He realized that so long as central authorities hold monopoly on violence and taxation, every independent effort to decentralize the world—from Bitcoin to Liberland—is at risk of being suppressed, ignored, or destroyed. Not because it’s wrong, but because it's inconvenient to power.

"Unless a major state like the USA decentralizes itself from within," he thought, "true decentralization will remain a resistance—never the standard."

He activated his chrono-node once more. Not in defeat, but with purpose.

The next destination? Unknown. But the mission was clearer than ever.

Untype Update

I cleaned up the AI assistant UX. Now you can open it in the editor bar, same as all other actions. This makes it a lot easier to interact with while having access to normal edit functions.

AI-generated content

Untype uses OpenRouter to connect to various models to generate just about anything. It doesn't do images for now, but I'm working on that.

Automatic Title, Summary and Tag Suggestions

Added the functionality to generate titles, summaries and tags with one click.

A Brief Preview

Here is a little story I generated in Untype, ABOUT Untype:

This story was generated in Untype

Once upon a time, in the bustling digital city of Techlandia, there lived a quirky AI named Untype. Unlike other software, Untype wasn't just your everyday article composer — it had a nose for news, quite literally. Untype was equipped with a masterful talent for sniffing out the latest trends and stories wafting through the vast digital ether.

Untype had a peculiar look about it. Sporting a gigantic nose and a pair of spectacles perched just above it, Untype roamed the virtual city, inhaling the freshest gossip and spiciest stories. Its nostr-powered sensors twitched and tickled as it encountered every new scent.

One day, while wandering around the pixelated park, Untype caught a whiff of something extraordinary — a scandalous scoop involving Techlandia's mayor, Doc Processor, who had been spotted recycling old memes as new content. The scent trail was strong, and Untype's nose twitched with excitement.

With a flick of its AI function, Untype began weaving the story into a masterpiece. Sentences flowed like fine wine, infused with humor sharper than a hacker’s focus. "Doc Processor," Untype mused to itself, "tried to buffer his way out of this one with a cache of recycled gifs!"

As Untype typed away, its digital friends, Grammarly the Grammar Gremlin and Canva the Artful Pixie, gathered around to watch the genius at work. "You truly have a knack for news-sniffing," complimented Grammarly, adjusting its tiny monocle. Canva nodded, painting whimsical illustrations to accompany the hilarious exposé.

The article soon spread through Techlandia faster than a virus with a strong wifi signal. The townsfolk roared with laughter at Untype’s clever wit, and even Doc Processor couldn't help but chuckle through his embarrassment.

From that day on, Untype was celebrated not just as a composer but as Techlandia's most revered and humorous news-sniffer. With every sniff and click of its AI functions, Untype proved that in the world of digital creations, sometimes news really was just a nose away.

น้ำมันถั่วเหลือง ของเหลวสีทองในครัว... แต่ในเซลล์เราอาจไม่ขำ หลายบ้านรักน้ำมันถั่วเหลือง เพราะมัน... -หาง่าย -ราคาน่ารัก -ผัดอะไรก็หอมเบา ๆ แบบบ้าน ๆ แถมบางแบรนด์ยังใส่ฉลาก “มีโอเมกา 3” ให้ดูดีในชั้นวางซูเปอร์ เหมือนกำลังได้กินแซลมอนแบบขวด ใช่ครับ ในน้ำมันถั่วเหลืองมีโอเมกา 3 จริง แต่เป็นชนิด ALA (Alpha-Linolenic Acid) ซึ่งร่างกายเราจะต้องแปลงเป็น DHA/EPA ถึงจะใช้งานได้ ปัญหาคือ... อัตราแปลงต่ำเตี้ยเรี่ยดิน แค่ 0.5–5% เท่านั้น

แถมปริมาณโอเมกา 6 ยังสูงจนเบียดโอเมกา 3 ตกเวที แล้วความสมดุลของกรดไขมันทั้งสองสายนี้ คือหัวใจสำคัญของการควบคุม การอักเสบ (inflammation) โอเมกา 3 = ดับไฟ โอเมกา 6 = จุดไฟ แต่น้ำมันถั่วเหลืองใส่ชุดนักผจญเพลิงมา แต่ดันถือไฟแช็คอะ

โอเมกา 6 + ความร้อน = สารพิษในครัว เมื่อเอาน้ำมันถั่วเหลืองไปเจอไฟสูง ๆ จากการผัดหรือทอด จะเกิด lipid peroxidation – ปฏิกิริยาออกซิเดชันที่เปลี่ยนไขมันดี ๆ ให้กลายเป็น สารอนุมูลอิสระสุดร้าย สารเหล่านี้สามารถไปทำลายเยื่อหุ้มเซลล์ ทำให้เกิดการอักเสบในระดับเซลล์เรื้อรัง ไม่ทันรู้ตัว ก็มีอาการปวดเมื่อย ตับอักเสบ ไขมันเกาะตับ หรือแม้กระทั่งภูมิคุ้มกันล้มเหลวแบบไม่ได้เชิญหมอดูมาก่อน

ปริมาณ PUFA (polyunsaturated fatty acids) สูงถึงกว่า 50-60% ซึ่งในสภาพของธรรมชาติ PUFA ไม่ได้ร้าย… แต่เมื่อมันถูกนำไปเจอไฟแรงๆ เช่น ทอด ผัด หรือแม้แต่ผ่านกระบวนการ refine ที่อุณหภูมิสูง มันจะกลายเป็น ไขมันไม่เสถียร ที่เหมือนคนใจบาง เจออะไรแรงๆ ไม่ได้เลย เพราะจะเกิดสาร lipid peroxidation products ที่ทำลายเซลล์ ตับ หลอดเลือด และอวัยวะที่คุณรักอย่างไม่รู้ตัว

ถั่วเหลืองยุคนี้... ไม่เหมือนเมื่อก่อน ถ้าถั่วเหลืองเมื่อก่อน อาจจะเป็นคุณป้าผู้รักสุขภาพ ถั่วเหลืองยุค GMO ก็อาจเป็น influencer สายปลอมที่แต่งหน้าหนักด้วย glyphosate น้ำมันถั่วเหลืองในตลาดส่วนใหญ่สกัดจากถั่วเหลือง GMO ผ่านการใช้ตัวทำละลายอย่าง เฮกเซน (hexane) ซึ่งแม้จะมีประสิทธิภาพในการรีดน้ำมันจากวัตถุดิบอย่างยอดเยี่ยม แต่ก็มีข่าววิจัยมากมายที่เริ่มตั้งคำถามว่า เฮกเซนตกค้างหรือไม่ และถ้าตกค้าง จะมีผลต่อระบบประสาทหรือไม่? และกระบวนการทำให้ใสที่ต้องใช้ ความร้อนและเคมีอีกหลายขั้น ซึ่งแน่นอนว่า... ไขมันที่ร่างกายเราควรได้รับ ควรเป็นไขมันที่เรียบง่าย ดิบ ๆ ดั้งเดิม ไม่ใช่ไขมันที่ถูก “ฟอกสี เติมกลิ่น กรองเคมี” จนแทบไม่เหลือความเป็น real food

แต่น้ำมันถั่วเหลืองก็มีข้อดีนะ น้ำมันถั่วเหลืองที่ไม่ได้ refine จนหมดเกลี้ยง ถ้าไม่ได้ปรุงด้วยความร้อนจะยังคงวิตามินอีไว้พอสมควร ซึ่งเป็นสารต้านอนุมูลอิสระที่ดีต่อผิวพรรณและช่วยลดการเกิด oxidative stress ได้ นอกจากนี้ยังเป็นที่นิยมเพราะมีราคาถูก สะดวก หาง่าย และรสชาติไม่กลบวัตถุดิบ จึงเป็นที่นิยมในอุตสาหกรรมอาหารและเบเกอรี่ เช่น ขนมปัง มายองเนส หรือสินค้าจำพวกแปรรูปต่างๆ

นั่นหมายความว่า เป็นอีกหนึ่งน้ำมันที่เหมาะกับการนำไปทำ ultra processed food เชียวครับ ได้ต้นทุนที่สะดวกและหาง่ายด้วย เป็นน้ำมันหลักในการทำ มายองเนส เลยครับ

และคำถามสำคัญที่น่าจะมีมาด้วย ตอบไว้ก่อนเลยครับว่า น้ำมันถั่วเหลือง ไม่มีสารแกมมา-โอริซานอล (γ-Oryzanol) จ้ะ แพ้น้ำมันรำข้าวเด้อ #pirateketo #กูต้องรู้มั๊ย #ม้วนหางสิลูก

ตัวหนังสือมีเสียง วันนี้แซงมาเพลงนึง

เพลงนี้ชื่อ "เสมอ" เป็นเพลงที่ผมเขียนขึ้นมาเพื่อเหตุผล 2 อย่าง 1. อยากมีเพลงเกี่ยวกับแดด ไว้รองรับ content ตากแดด 2. อยากมีเพลงปลอบประโลมใจ เพราะตกตะกอนมาจากโพส "แตกสลายเพื่อเติบโต"

สองเหตุผลนี้มันสอดคล้องกันดีครับ สามารถเป็นเพลงเดียวกันได้ เพราะเพลงเกี่ยวกับแดด ผมไม่อยากได้เนื้อหาแบบ วิตามินดี ส่งเสริมร่างกายแข็งแรง แบบเพลงเต้นประกอบท่าตอนเช้า 5555 คนละจุดมุ่งหมายกัน

ท่อนย้ำผมเลยใช้คำว่า "พรุ่งนี้จะมาใหม่ พรุ่งนี้จะมาใหม่ เสมอ..." แล้วเล่นคำย้ำซ้ำว่า "พรุ่งนี้จะสู้ใหม่ พรุ่งนี้จะสู้ใหม่ นะเธอ..." ใครตามงานผมน่าจะพอทราบลายเซนต์ว่า สไตล์นี้นี่กูเลย 5555

เพลงจะเล่าถึงความอ่อนล้า ที่เทียบกับคืนอันหนาวเย็น โดดเดี่ยว แต่เมื่อไหร่ที่แดดสาดส่อง นอกจากความมืดจะหายไปแล้ว ความอบอุ่น การเริ่มต้นใหม่ ก็แสดงตัวตนว่ากำลังมาหา

สิ่งนึงที่อยากให้จำไว้เสมอคือ "พระอาทิตย์ จะขึ้นทิศทางเดิมเสมอ" เมื่อไหร่ที่อ่อนล้า เมื่อยใจ ไร้กำลัง ให้รู้ว่า พรุ่งนี้นะ พรุ่งนี้ พระอาทิตย์จะมาโอบกอดเธอด้วยความอบอุ่น แบบที่เป็น "เสมอ"

บทความเกี่ยวกับแดดพรุ่งนี้ ก็มีความสอดคล้องกับเพลงนี้ครับ ไว้ติดตามอ่านกันตอนตากแดด พรุ่งนี้ 8.00 นะครับ

อ้อ เพลงนี้ไม่ได้ลงในระบบใดทั้งสิ้น (เพราะยังไม่ได้เอาไปลง 555) มันจึงมีความพิเศษที่ ฟังได้ที่นี่เท่านั้นครับ แก้ๆๆ ลืมหว่ะ youtube มี https://youtu.be/esyd_W_gyZ0?si=kH7gVod3vd1b16Qq 55555

เนื้อเพลง "เสมอ" Song by : HereTong Teera Siri เหนื่อยล้าอ่อนแรง มืดมนแค่ไหน โดดเดี่ยวเพียงใด หัวใจอ่อนล้า

ผ่านวันนี้ ไปด้วยกัน ผ่านวันนี้ ไปด้วยความฝัน

พรุ่งนี้จะมาใหม่ พรุ่งนี้จะมาใหม่ เสมอ...

เมื่ออาทิตย์สาดแสง ความมืดจะจางหาย ความหนาวจะกลับกลาย ได้ไออุ่น

เมื่ออาทิตย์ส่องแสง หัวใจจะเริ่มคุ้น ความละมุนแห่งรัก ให้พักใจ

โลกสวยสดใส สว่างไสวสุดฟ้า ใจที่อ่อนล้า ละลายหายไป

ผ่านวันนี้ไปด้วยกัน ผ่านวันนี้ไปพร้อมกับฝัน แล้วพรุ่งนี้จะสู้ใหม่ พรุ่งนี้จะสู้ใหม่ นะเธอ...

ใต้อาทิตย์สาดแสง เรี่ยวแรง เติมเต็มหมดใจ แสงจะส่องไป สู่ปลายทาง แห่งความฝัน สู้วันนี้ไปด้วยกัน สู้วันนี้ไป ด้วยความฝัน เธอยังมีฉันเสมอ เพียงเธอมองบนฟ้า... พรุ่งนี้ฉัน จะมาใหม่ เสมอ...

How and Why I found Nostr?

I teach contract drafting. That is who I am.

To teach the subject I maintained few websites through self-hosted Wordpress. I faced numerous challenges despite spending money on hosting, domain and whatnot. I do not have any technical background. So, you can understand my frustration when my websites kept disappearing due to hacking. I always put a brave face and started afresh.

I used Microsoft Word, Power Point, and Obsidian to draft my posts and lessons. So, I had some backups. Thankfully, I also did post some of the training sessions on my youtube channel. Checkout my previous post for link to the Youtube Playlist.

Since, I teach for free, every time my websites were hacked, it pained me to see the bad side of human race. I was not hurting anyone, spending my own money, still someone unknown to me, for whatever reasons, could stop my mission.

I started empathising with the belief in the internet being dysfunctional and still being beyond reach of common man.

Then I found some hope, when around a year or so earlier, I found Anytype. A simple app, the everything app, which promises anonymity, security from data breach, and a promise to share ones thoughts publicly with the others soon via web. Although some of its features (e.g. option to self host) are little bit technical for me, I still have high hopes. It is similar to Obsidian, yet way more than that.

I could use either Obsidian or Anytype for writing and publishing my data on web. So, I recently surrendered to the idea of using one of Obsidian's plugins to publish my content. These provide the option to publish your obsidian notes on web through sub-domain. One that I used before was Obsius Plugin.

But, secretly I also wished want more.

I wished to maintain my same anonymous profile I have on Telegram. I have a dedicated student base on Telegram. So, I wanted them to easily find me or atleast my content on a new platform.

I also wanted to stop spending more money, or at least save some by spending less.

And, voila!

I came across Nostr unexpectedly through Obsidian and found a Plugin Nostr Writer by James.

I was looking for a simple method to host my blog posts and lessons on contract drafting. And, I found much more....

If you have some other compelling reasons, as Marc, do read his piece on why he is on Nostr - Why I'm on Nostr?)

What did I find?

After going through the Nostr Writer](https://github.com/jamesmagoo/nostr-writer) documentation on Github, I searched for Nostr and found NOSTR.COM.

As expected, it took me some time to understand the concepts of Public and Private Keys, Clients, Relays and so on. But, within 2-3 days, I found that this was just a SMALL TIP of a HUGE ICEBERG, yet to be show it's full potential.

My most sincere thank you to its creator, and to people who spend time explaining it and making it AWESOME.

NOSTR's CONCEPTS

If you want to READ ABOUT NOSTR's CONCEPTS, you can go through the following:

1. Intro by Nostr's founder-FLATJAF
2. NOSTR Website
3. NOSTR Guide

I also went through almost each and every youtube video I could find on Nostr onboarding and much more. Although, these are very few, I found each one of them to be very useful. I have listed some of these below.

Nostr Onboarding videos

My most sincere thank you to each of the creators (), who took time to explain the onabording by various methods.

1. By Ares - how to get started with Nostr on mobile - 3 minutes approx
2. By Castig- How to get started on Nostr - 7 minutes approx
3. By Max Demarco- Create your Nostr Account- Beginnner Tutorial - 18 minutes approx
4. By Nostr World - Nostr for Beginners w/ Derek Ross - 37 minutes approx
5. By 88 Sats Radio- how to get started on Nostr - 48 minutes approx

I suggest every beginner must watch all of these videos, create as many accounts you need, and do it until you understand the whole Idea.

This is just the beginning of what to come. So, do not stop using Nostr. In fact refer to friends and family and ask them to join.

Bonus of Nostr

เพื่อนๆอาจรู้สึกว่าโพสที่เล่าเรื่อง Precision Fermentation มันดูห่างไกลเหลือเกิน และอาจคิดว่า ณ ตอนนี้ยังสามารถเลือกได้ ไม่เห็นต้องตื่นตูมเลยแค่กินของธรรมชาติก็รอดแล้ว 55555 ไม่เป็นไรครับผมเข้าใจเพราะมันดูไกลตัว และซีรีส์นี้ผมมีเหตุผลในการเขียนอย่างต่อเนื่อง และค้น ค้น ค้น อย่างหนักเพื่อบันทึกการค้นคว้าของผมเอาไว้ ที่ใดสักที่หนึ่ง แล้ววันนึงถึงเวลา จะมีคนค้นดูบ้างว่า โลกมันเกิดอะไรแบบนี้ขึ้นได้ยังไงนะ (ในวงเล็บฮา)

ผมตั้งชื่อตอนนี้ว่า นมที่ไม่มีวัวเกิดขึ้นแล้ว เมื่อ "Perfect Day" พยายามกำหนดอนาคตอาหารให้มนุษย์ทั้งโลกใหม่

ในวันที่โลกกำลังสับสนระหว่างคำว่า “ยั่งยืน” กับ “ควบคุมได้” มีบริษัทหนึ่งที่กำลังสร้างฝันแบบใหม่ให้กับอาหารที่เรากินกันทุกวัน นั่นคือ Perfect Day บริษัทเทคโนโลยีชีวภาพจากสหรัฐฯ ที่ไม่ได้ขายนม แต่มาขายอนาคตว่า “คุณไม่ต้องเลี้ยงวัวอีกต่อไป แต่ยังได้นมที่เหมือนเดิมเป๊ะ” โดยใช้กระบวนการที่เรียกว่า Precision Fermentation นั่นเอง

ฟังดูดีใช่ไหม? แต่ลองก้มดูข้างกล่องอีกที แล้วถามตัวเองว่า “นี่มันอาหาร... หรือผลิตภัณฑ์ทดลองทางพันธุกรรมที่กำลังรุกคืบสู่ชีวิตเราแบบแนบเนียน?”

Perfect Day ผลิตอะไร? Perfect Day ใช้จุลินทรีย์ที่ถูก “ตัดต่อพันธุกรรม” เรียกว่า Microflora ให้สามารถสร้างเวย์โปรตีน (โปรตีนหลักในนม) ได้ในห้องแล็บ มาเลี้ยงในถังหมัก เพื่อผลิตเวย์โปรตีนที่มีโครงสร้างเหมือนกับเวย์จากนมวัวทุกประการ แต่ไม่ต้องใช้สัตว์เลยแม้แต่น้อย แล้วนำโปรตีนนั้นไปใช้ในผลิตภัณฑ์หลากหลาย ตั้งแต่นม ไอศกรีม ไปจนถึงเครื่องดื่มโปรตีน แถมยังชูจุดขายด้วยว่า กระบวนการนี้ช่วยลดการปล่อยก๊าซเรือนกระจกได้ถึง 97% และลดการใช้น้ำได้ถึง 99% เมื่อเทียบกับการผลิตนมแบบดั้งเดิม

ที่สำคัญคือสินค้าจาก Perfect Day มีจำหน่ายแล้วในทุกวันนี้ครับ ในสารพัดแบรนด์เช่น Very Dairy วางขายในสิงคโปร์ Strive FREEMILK ที่ Amazon และร้านค้าในอเมริกา Breyers Lactose-Free Chocolate Ice Cream ร่วมกับ Unilever Modern Kitchen Cream Cheese ที่เคยวางขาย และกำลังปรับกลยุทธ์ และยังมีอีกเพียบเลยครับ

นี่ไม่ใช่ทางเลือก แต่มันคือ “การรุกคืบ” Perfect Day ไม่ได้หยุดแค่ขายของ พวกเขา ขายความคิดว่าของที่พวกเขาผลิต “ดีต่อโลกกว่า” และ “เป็นนวัตกรรมที่จำเป็นต่ออนาคต” โดยที่ไม่พูดถึงว่า -มันถูกสร้างขึ้นจากสิ่งมีชีวิตตัดต่อพันธุกรรม -ต้องใช้เทคโนโลยีสูงที่ประชาชนไม่มีสิทธิผลิตเอง -อยู่ภายใต้สิทธิบัตรที่สามารถควบคุมการใช้วัตถุดิบอาหารได้แต่ผู้เดียว

ลองนึกภาพว่า… วันหนึ่งหากผู้คนคุ้นเคยกับ “นมที่ไม่มีวัว” เพราะมันรสชาติถูกปากถูกใจ แถมยังถูกจริตการรักษ์โลกแบบที่เขาบอกว่าต้องรักอย่างไร และถ้าบริษัทเหล่านี้เข้าถึงโรงเรียน โรงพยาบาล หรือโครงการรัฐ เราจะเหลือ อำนาจในการเลือก จริง ๆ หรือไม่?

เบื้องหลังแผนจากแล็บสู่กลยุทธ์ครอบคลุมตลาด ปี 2023 Perfect Day ขายแบรนด์ฝั่งผู้บริโภคของตน (เช่น The Urgent Company) ให้กับ Superlatus เพื่อโฟกัสเฉพาะ B2B (Business to Business) กลยุทธ์นี้คือการ “เป็นเจ้าของวัตถุดิบ” และปล่อยให้แบรนด์ต่าง ๆ ในตลาดมาเป็นลูกค้า แปลว่าในอนาคต นม ไอศกรีม หรือโปรตีนบาร์ที่คุณกินในทุกวันนี้อาจใช้เวย์โปรตีนจาก GMO โดยที่คุณไม่รู้ตัวก็ได้ จุดนี้หละครับสำคัญ วันไหนนะที่จะมาถึงบ้านเรา

การเข้ายึดครองตลาดไม่ต้องใช้ชื่อ Perfect Day ก็ได้... แค่ฝังมันไว้ในวัตถุดิบ แล้วส่งออกไปยังโรงงานอุตสาหกรรมอาหารทั้งโลก ควบคุมอยู่เบื้องหลังเป็นกระดูกสันหลังที่สำคัญต่อการเคลื่อนที่ไปโดยปริยาย

ทั้งนี้เพราะ Perfect Day มีพันธมิตรมากมาย ไม่ว่าจะเป็น Unilever / Nestlé / Mars / Bel Group / Coolhaus / Very Dairy / Ice Age! / Strive Nutrition และอื่นๆอีกมากมาย

ที่น่าสนใจคือ มีหลักฐานชัดเจนว่า Nestlé ได้ร่วมมือกับ Perfect Day ในการพัฒนาผลิตภัณฑ์นมที่ปราศจากสัตว์ โดยใช้เวย์โปรตีนที่ผลิตจากกระบวนการ precision fermentation ของ Perfect Day

ความร่วมมือระหว่าง Nestlé และ Perfect Day เกิดขึ้นในเดือนกันยายน 2022 โดย Nestlé ได้ประกาศความร่วมมือกับ Perfect Day เพื่อพัฒนาผลิตภัณฑ์นมที่ปราศจากสัตว์ โดยใช้เวย์โปรตีนที่ผลิตจากจุลินทรีย์ที่ได้รับการดัดแปลงพันธุกรรม ​ผลิตภัณฑ์ที่พัฒนาขึ้น ได้แก่ เครื่องดื่มนมพร้อมดื่ม (RTD) รสช็อกโกแลตและรสดั้งเดิม ภายใต้ชื่อแบรนด์ Cowabunga ซึ่งวางจำหน่ายในร้าน Safeway บางแห่งในแคลิฟอร์เนีย ​Green Queen ความร่วมมือนี้เป็นส่วนหนึ่งของโครงการ R+D Accelerator ของ Nestlé ในสหรัฐอเมริกา ซึ่งมุ่งเน้นการพัฒนาและทดสอบผลิตภัณฑ์ใหม่ๆ อย่างรวดเร็ว ​

Nestlé ได้ร่วมมือกับ Perfect Day ในการพัฒนาผลิตภัณฑ์นมที่ปราศจากสัตว์ โดยใช้เวย์โปรตีนที่ผลิตจากกระบวนการ precision fermentation ซึ่งเป็นการตอบสนองต่อความต้องการของผู้บริโภคที่มองหาทางเลือกที่ยั่งยืนและเป็นมิตรต่อสิ่งแวดล้อม

​ณ เดือนมกราคม 2025 บริษัท Perfect Day มีรายได้ประจำปีในปี 2024 Perfect Day มีรายได้รวมประมาณ 35 ล้านดอลลาร์สหรัฐ ​มูลค่าบริษัทจากการระดมทุนรอบล่าสุดในเดือนมกราคม 2024 ทำให้บริษัทมีมูลค่าประเมินอยู่ที่ 1.6 พันล้านดอลลาร์สหรัฐ

The San Blas Islands, officially known as the Guna Yala archipelago, are a dreamy chain of 365 islands and cays, most of them uninhabited, off Panama’s Caribbean coast. Run autonomously by the Guna (or Kuna) people, San Blas is known for its **crystal-clear turquoise waters, white sand beaches, and authentic indigenous culture.

🌞 Why Visit the San Blas Islands?

• Unspoiled beauty: No resorts or big hotels—just rustic cabanas, palm trees, and silence
• Snorkeling heaven: Coral reefs, starfish banks, and calm lagoons await
• Cultural connection: Meet the Guna people, learn about their traditions, and buy their handmade molas (textiles)
• Disconnect to reconnect: No Wi-Fi, no distractions—just sea, sky, and sand

🌊 Top Things to Do

• 🐠 Snorkel around the vibrant reefs and shipwrecks
• 🏝️ Island-hop by boat between tiny islets, some with just a few palm trees
• 🧺 Visit a Guna village to learn about their matriarchal society and way of life
• 🌅 Sunbathe or hammock-nap under swaying palms
• 🌌 Gaze at star-filled skies—zero light pollution here

🛏️ Where to Stay

• Accommodations are basic cabanas or eco-lodges, often directly on the beach
• Meals (mostly fresh seafood, rice, plantains) are usually included
• Power is limited—think solar lights, not outlets

🚐 Getting There

• Depart from Panama City via a 4x4 ride (2.5–3 hrs) to the port of Cartí
• Then hop on a boat (30–45 mins) to your island
• Or opt for a guided multi-day tour that includes transport, meals, and accommodation

🛂 Note: San Blas is semi-autonomous—you’ll need your passport for entry, even if coming from within Panama.

📅 Best Time to Go

• Dry Season (Dec–April): Clear skies, calm seas, and stunning sunrises
• Wet Season (May–Nov): Still beautiful, with occasional short tropical showers

🌺 Insider Tips

• Bring cash—no ATMs in San Blas
• Pack reef-safe sunscreen, a dry bag, and snorkeling gear
• Respect Guna customs—ask before taking photos, and dress modestly when visiting villages
• Travel light—waterproof bags are a must for boat rides

در دنیای امروز، بارها دیده‌ایم که به‌خاطر یک کار خوب، یک سخن درست یا گذشته‌ای درخشان، کسی را روی سکوی قهرمانی می‌گذاریم و او را بی‌نقص و مطلق می‌پنداریم. اما حقیقت این است که هیچ انسانی کامل نیست. آدم‌ها موجوداتی پیچیده‌اند که با گذر زمان، تجربه و شرایط، تغییر می‌کنند. آنچه امروز ستودنی است، لزوماً فردا هم همان ارزش را ندارد.

برای مثال، توماج صالحی را در نظر بگیرید؛ کسی که با صدای بلند از حق مردم گفت، شعر خواند و در زندان و زیر فشار شکنجه مقاومت کرد. شجاعت او شایسته تحسین است، اما نمی‌توان انتظار داشت که تحت چنین فشار طاقت‌فرسایی، همیشه همان تصویر قهرمانانه را حفظ کند. یا مسیح علینژاد که علیه جمهوری اسلامی سخن گفت و کارهایی کرد که بسیاری آن را ارزشمند می‌دانند. اما این به آن معنا نیست که هر تصمیم یا سخنی از او بی‌نقص است یا او ذاتاً بی‌عیب است. حتی خاندان پهلوی که زمانی نماد پیشرفت و مدرنیته بودند، نمی‌توانند به‌تنهایی معیار حقیقت یا ناجی یک ملت باشند.

این ماجرا به چهره‌های سیاسی و تاریخی محدود نمی‌شود. ارنستو چگوارا برای بسیاری نماد مبارزه و آزادی است، اما وقتی دقیق‌تر نگاه کنیم، می‌بینیم برخی تصمیماتش به ضرر مردم تمام شد. در زندگی روزمره هم همین‌طور است؛ ممکن است کسی در لحظه‌ای خاص کاری درست انجام دهد، اما این دلیل نمی‌شود که همیشه شایسته اعتماد بی‌چون‌وچرا باشد.

بت‌سازی از آدم‌ها خطر بزرگی دارد: وقتی کسی را اسطوره می‌کنیم، دیگر نمی‌توانیم نقص‌ها و اشتباهاتش را ببینیم. اگر روزی خطایی از او سر بزند، یا شوکه می‌شویم یا به هر بهانه‌ای سعی می‌کنیم آن را توجیه کنیم. این روند، ما را از قضاوت منصفانه و خردمندانه دور می‌کند و به جای حقیقت، به توهم وابسته‌مان می‌سازد.

به جای بت‌سازی، بهتر است انسان‌ها را همان‌گونه که هستند ببینیم: با خوبی‌ها و کاستی‌ها، با شجاعت‌ها و ضعف‌ها. اگر کسی کار درستی کرد، تحسینش کنیم، اما نگذاریم این تحسین، چشم‌مان را روی حقیقت ببندد. این نگاه نه‌تنها ما را از سرخوردگی و توهم دور نگه می‌دارد، بلکه قدرت تحلیل و یادگیری‌مان را تقویت می‌کند.

اما آزادی واقعی چگونه به دست می‌آید؟ آزادی حقیقی در انتظار منجی یا قهرمان نیست. آزادی زمانی معنا پیدا می‌کند که هر فرد، خود قدرت انتخاب، تفکر و عمل داشته باشد. به جای وابستگی به یک نفر یا یک گروه، باید سیستمی غیرمتمرکز و آزاد ایجاد کنیم که در آن هیچ‌کس تحت سلطه دیگری نباشد. همان‌طور که شهبانو فرح پهلوی گفته است: «همیشه نور بر تاریکی پیروز است.» این نور، نماد خرد جمعی و آزادی است که با اتکا به خود و همکاری با دیگران، تاریکی جهل و استبداد را از بین می‌برد.

در نهایت، به جای پرستش قهرمان‌های خیالی، بیایید ارزش‌ها و ایده‌ها را مستقل از آدم‌ها بسنجیم. با عمل آزادانه، نقد منصفانه و همکاری جمعی، می‌توانیم راه را برای جامعه‌ای عادلانه، آزاد و روشن هموار کنیم.

I was happy with my apple devices and conducting my life out in the open. Even when I was conducting quasi-legal retail operations, I always depended on the constitution to protect me from unreasonable searches and seizures. If I ever got busted, I figured I would just force the prosecution to take me through piece by piece every part of law enforcement's evidence gathering operations, which (especially with the local law enforcement in rural Missouri) likely would have trampled my civil rights. In retrospect, I was probably a lot more vulnerable than I wanted to admit, but this was years ago and I think I was tempting fate recreationally. I also imagined that a jury would never render a verdict against me, even with good evidence. And if they did, I would appeal it. Law school taught me to see the system as much more pliable than law enforcement wants anyone to think it is. Lacking shame is also an endearing quality.

One thing I spent a lot of time thinking about during these years, despite my stubborn insistence that everything would work out okay (which it mostly did), was my digital vulnerability. I was careful with what was said, how it was said, who is was said to. But never careful enough, and given the gist of the last few years and Big Tech's coziness with law enforcement, I should have abandoned most of my devices way sooner.

Now, I no longer run an illicit Farmer's Market, but I am endlessly interested in erasing my fingerprints from prying eyes -- government or otherwise. That said, I don't mind having my name attached to my ideas. I recently convinced a friend to join Nostr and when he saw I was using my real name he couldn't believe it. If I was starting social media cold, I would encourage people to maintain a pseudonym. I have pseudonyms in various corners of the internet. They are probably too leaky to overcome basic scrutiny from a moderate hacker, but they give me a little distance. Probably my willful ignorance cropping up here again, but I live by a phrase I heard in a Sherlock Holmes film once: "It's so over: it's covert." I just figure I can say and do enough to obfuscate my activities if someone tries to nail me down at some point. But, deeper than that, I can stop gladly handing over any trust to corporations that have a record of prying and spying.

I don't trust Windows. I don't really trust Apple, although I remember the landmark case with the Sandy Hook shooter's phone, where Apple was refusing to unlock the thing. This gave me a bit of trust, but you can just feel the fingers of the company all over your devices. I also lost a lot of trust in Apple during the previous presidential campaign politics where every headline that was pushed from the Apple news app was overwhelmingly anti-Trump. I am not the biggest Trump guy by ANY stretch, but I found this to be just way too heavy-handed for what should be a politically agnostic news pushing application.

I definitely don't trust any centralized social media. Facebook has burned so much trust over the years it is laughable that they control rural communities the way they do. When the cat is out of the bag on Nostr, I hope there is a mass exodus. It won't be a mass exodus, but even a slow and progressive exodus would be fine. Starve out the big guys. Don't give them the data and the clicks.

Twitter feels better, but not by a ton. There is enough of a desire to be the "everything app" that i don't want any part of it anymore. Also, the free tier is shit -- I had premium plus for a while until the last couple of months when the price went way up, and it was unclear whether I had access to the full AI features of Grok, so I ditched it. About the same time I became active on Nostr, so it hasn't bothered me much.

I'm not full carnivore, but I have eaten more steaks in the last year than in the past. I'm not full open source, but I am weaning myself off the spy-machines.

I will be installing Linux on my PC (once my graphic card gets here from Germany), and it will be slow and probably painful at times, but I am getting away from it. I will also be installing GrapheneOS on my backup phone, so that I am familiar and accustomed to escaping the ivory towers in that realm too.

Little by little, but it's hard to overstate how much more hopeful life feels when you rebel against the digital overlords. Open-source money is better, so might as well bitcoin-ify the rest of my networks, too.

Verstand ohne Gefühl ist unmenschlich; \ Gefühl ohne Verstand ist Dummheit. \ Egon Bahr

Seit Jahren werden wir darauf getrimmt, dass Fakten eigentlich gefühlt seien. Aber nicht alles ist relativ und nicht alles ist nach Belieben interpretierbar. Diese Schokoladenhasen beispielsweise, die an Ostern in unseren Gefilden typisch sind, «ostern» zwar nicht, sondern sie sitzen in der Regel, trotzdem verwandelt sie das nicht in «Sitzhasen».

Nichts soll mehr gelten, außer den immer invasiveren Gesetzen. Die eigenen Traditionen und Wurzeln sind potenziell «pfui», um andere Menschen nicht auszuschließen, aber wir mögen uns toleranterweise an die fremden Symbole und Rituale gewöhnen. Dabei ist es mir prinzipiell völlig egal, ob und wann jemand ein Fastenbrechen feiert, am Karsamstag oder jedem anderen Tag oder nie – aber bitte freiwillig.

Und vor allem: Lasst die Finger von den Kindern! In Bern setzten kürzlich Demonstranten ein Zeichen gegen die zunehmende Verbreitung woker Ideologie im Bildungssystem und forderten ein Ende der sexuellen Indoktrination von Schulkindern.

Wenn es nicht wegen des heiklen Themas Migration oder wegen des Regenbogens ist, dann wegen des Klimas. Im Rahmen der «Netto Null»-Agenda zum Kampf gegen das angeblich teuflische CO2 sollen die Menschen ihre Ernährungsgewohnheiten komplett ändern. Nach dem Willen von Produzenten synthetischer Lebensmittel, wie Bill Gates, sollen wir baldmöglichst praktisch auf Fleisch und alle Milchprodukte wie Milch und Käse verzichten. Ein lukratives Geschäftsmodell, das neben der EU aktuell auch von einem britischen Lobby-Konsortium unterstützt wird.

Sollten alle ideologischen Stricke zu reißen drohen, ist da immer noch «der Putin». Die Unions-Europäer offenbaren sich dabei ständig mehr als Vertreter der Rüstungsindustrie. Allen voran zündelt Deutschland an der Kriegslunte, angeführt von einem scheinbar todesmutigen Kanzlerkandidaten Friedrich Merz. Nach dessen erneuter Aussage, «Taurus»-Marschflugkörper an Kiew liefern zu wollen, hat Russland eindeutig klargestellt, dass man dies als direkte Kriegsbeteiligung werten würde – «mit allen sich daraus ergebenden Konsequenzen für Deutschland».

Wohltuend sind Nachrichten über Aktivitäten, die sich der allgemeinen Kriegstreiberei entgegenstellen oder diese öffentlich hinterfragen. Dazu zählt auch ein Kongress kritischer Psychologen und Psychotherapeuten, der letzte Woche in Berlin stattfand. Die vielen Vorträge im Kontext von «Krieg und Frieden» deckten ein breites Themenspektrum ab, darunter Friedensarbeit oder die Notwendigkeit einer «Pädagogik der Kriegsuntüchtigkeit».

Der heutige «stille Freitag», an dem Christen des Leidens und Sterbens von Jesus gedenken, ist vielleicht unabhängig von jeder religiösen oder spirituellen Prägung eine passende Einladung zur Reflexion. In der Ruhe liegt die Kraft. In diesem Sinne wünsche ich Ihnen frohe Ostertage!

Core idea: Use geotagged anonymized Nostr events with Cashu-based points to snitch on cop locations for a more relaxed driving and walking

We all know navigation apps. There's one of them that allows you to report on locations of cops. It's Waze and it's owned by Google. There are perfectly fine navigation apps like Organic Maps, that unfortunately lack the cop-snitching features. In some countries, it is illegal to report cop locations, so it would probably not be a good idea to use your npub to report them. But getting a points Cashu token as a reward and exchanging them from time to time would solve this. You can of course report construction, traffic jams, ...

Proposed solution: Add Nostr client (Copstr) to Organic Maps. Have a button in bottom right allowing you to report traffic situations. Geotagged events are published on Nostr relays, users sending cashu tokens as thank you if the report is valid. Notes have smart expiration times.

Phase 2: Automation: Integration with dashcams and comma.ai allow for automated AI recognition of traffic events such as traffic jams and cops, with automatic touchless reporting.

Result: Drive with most essential information and with full privacy. Collect points to be cool and stay cool.

We have playoff contests galore (https://stacker.news/items/947140/r/Undisciplined, https://stacker.news/items/943657/r/Undisciplined, https://stacker.news/items/945970/r/Undisciplined, https://stacker.news/items/945376/r/Undisciplined), which of course means we also have lots of playoff action to cover.

There are also several regular season contests going on (https://stacker.news/items/947153/r/Undisciplined, https://stacker.news/items/946412/r/Undisciplined, https://stacker.news/items/945561/r/Undisciplined, https://stacker.news/items/943383/r/Undisciplined), as well as the mish mash of events in the USA vs the world.

@BlokchainB posted some ideas for fixing the NBA and some of them seem promising. What really needs to be fixed?

@Coinsreporter has taken it upon himself to help us make smart decisions at Predyx. There are also some new exciting markets we want to talk about, plus just catch up on how our degeneracy is going.

The NFL Draft is this week. Stackers made their surprise picks. It's not too late to add yours to the mix. @grayruby also has some 49ers trade proposals for the Raiders number 6 pick. It'll be a tough sell.

The MLB is preposterously unbalanced. In @grayruby's words "The American League sucks".

Plus, whatever Stackers put in the comments.

Last, but not least, thank you to our listeners and supporters. As I write this, we're the #38 podcast on Fountain and Episode 27 is the #38 episode.

Introduction

In today’s data-driven world, the right data analyst company can be the key to unlocking actionable insights that fuel business growth. But how do you choose the best partner for your business? The process of hiring a data analytics consulting firm is critical, and asking the right questions will help you find a firm that aligns with your needs.

In this listicle, we’ll explore the 15 essential questions to ask before hiring a data analytics consulting firm. These questions will guide you in evaluating their expertise, tools, security practices, and ability to meet your business goals.

1. What Analytics Methodologies and Tools Do You Use?

The tools and methodologies a data analytics consulting firm uses will directly impact the quality of your insights. Ensure that they use modern, scalable platforms such as Python, R, Tableau, or Power BI, and ask for examples of successful projects where these tools have been applied.

2. Can You Share Case Studies or Success Stories?

Past success stories are a reflection of a data analyst company’s capabilities. Ask for industry-specific case studies to ensure they have experience handling the unique challenges of your sector. A company with proven expertise in your field will be better equipped to address your business’s needs.

3. How Do You Stay Updated with New Trends in Data Analytics?

The field of data analytics is constantly evolving. Ask about how the data analytics consulting firm stays current with the latest trends, tools, and technologies. A company that invests in continuous learning and development is likely to provide cutting-edge solutions that drive innovation.

4. What’s Your Approach to Turning Data Into Actionable Insights?

It’s not just about collecting data; it’s about transforming it into something useful. Ask how the data analyst company converts raw data into actionable business strategies. The best companies will provide clear insights and recommendations that align with your objectives.

5. How Do You Ensure Data Quality and Preparation?

High-quality data is essential for accurate analysis. Ask whether the data analyst company has robust data cleaning and preparation processes in place to ensure they maintain data integrity and avoid errors that could skew results.

9. How Will You Handle Potential Data Breaches or Cybersecurity Threats?

No one can predict a data breach, but the right data analyst company should have a response plan. Ask how they would address and resolve security incidents. A good company will have protocols in place to quickly detect, contain, and resolve cybersecurity issues.

10. How Do You Customize Solutions to Fit Our Unique Business Needs?

Every business is different, and so are its data analytics needs. Ask how the data analyst company or consulting firm tailors their solutions to fit your specific objectives. A customizable approach will ensure that their services provide the most value and are aligned with your business goals.

11. What’s Your Process for Integrating Analytics Into Existing Systems?

The success of data analytics hinges on how well it integrates with your current systems. Ask the data analytics consulting firm about their integration process to ensure smooth collaboration with your existing workflows. The more seamless the integration, the more impactful the insights will be.

12. How Do You Measure the Success of Data Analytics Projects?

Setting clear metrics and KPIs is crucial for evaluating the effectiveness of data analytics. Ask how the data analyst company measures the success of their projects and how they ensure that their solutions deliver tangible results. This will help you gauge whether their approach aligns with your business objectives.

13. How Do You Scale Analytics Solutions as We Grow?

Scalability is key for businesses that plan to expand. Ask how the data analyst company or consulting firm’s analytics solutions can grow alongside your business. A flexible partner will be able to adapt their solutions to meet future needs and keep pace with your growth.

AGEs กับการทอด เกิดขึ้นได้ไม่ว่าจะใช้ไขมันอะไร

ก่อนจะทำความรู้จักน้ำมันตัวต่อไป พอดีหลายคนมีคำถามว่า เมื่อเราต้องทอดอาหาร ควรใช้น้ำมันอะไรถึงจะดีต่อสุขภาพ? เป็นคำถามที่ตอบยาก เพราะแม้จะเลือกใช้น้ำมันที่ดูเหมาะสมที่สุด แต่สิ่งที่ควรพิจารณามากกว่าคือ กระบวนการปรุงอาหาร โดยเฉพาะการทอดที่มีการใช้ความร้อนสูง ซึ่งไม่ว่าคุณจะใช้น้ำมันอะไร, ไขมันสัตว์หรือไขมันพืช, ก็สามารถทำให้เกิดสารพิษที่เรียกว่า AGEs (Advanced Glycation End Products) ได้ทั้งนั้น กระบวนการทอดที่อุณหภูมิสูงเป็นตัวการสำคัญที่กระตุ้นการเกิดสารนี้ ซึ่งมีผลเสียต่อสุขภาพมากกว่าการเลือกใช้น้ำมันประเภทใด ดังนั้น สิ่งที่เราควรระวังมากที่สุดคือวิธีการปรุงอาหาร ซึ่งหลายคนยังเข้าใจผิดว่าการเลือกน้ำมันจะเป็นตัวตัดสินความดีหรือไม่ดีต่อสุขภาพ ทั้งที่จริงๆ แล้วกระบวนการปรุงอาหารต่างหากที่สำคัญกว่าอย่างมาก

และถ้าต้องตอบว่าน้ำมันอะไรดี มันก็จะแค่บอกได้ว่า ปาล์ม กับ มะพร้าว ซึ่งมันจะช่วยได้แค่การลดโอกาสการเกิดออกซิเดชั่น และคุณสมบัติตามโพรไฟล์การรับความร้อนได้ มันก็เป็นแค่น้ำมันที่ทนความร้อนได้ดีกว่าใครเขา

แต่มันไม่ได้ตอบคำถามที่มีคำว่า "ดีต่อสุขภาพ" ด้วยนะสิครับ เพราะอะไร? ผมพยายามเขียนแบบเล่าสู่กันอ่านนะครับ ให้เข้าใจง่ายๆไม่วิชากงวิชาการมากนัก

ในโลกของการปรุงอาหาร, การทอดถือเป็นหนึ่งในวิธีการทำอาหารที่ได้รับความนิยมสูง เพราะมันง่ายและรวดเร็ว แต่อย่างไรก็ตาม, การทอดที่อุณหภูมิสูงนั้นอาจเป็นสาเหตุที่ทำให้เกิดสารพิษชนิดหนึ่งที่เรียกว่า AGEs (Advanced Glycation End Products) ซึ่งมีผลกระทบต่อสุขภาพในระยะยาว ไม่ว่าเราจะใช้ ไขมันสัตว์ หรือ น้ำมันพืช ก็สามารถเกิด AGEs ได้ทั้งนั้น ถ้าหากการทอดเกิดขึ้นที่อุณหภูมิสูงอย่างต่อเนื่อง

AGEs คืออะไร? AGEs คือ สารพิษที่เกิดจากการปฏิกิริยาระหว่าง น้ำตาล (เช่น กลูโคส หรือ ฟรุกโตส) และ โปรตีน หรือ ไขมัน ในอาหาร เมื่อเราเตรียมอาหารในอุณหภูมิสูง ซึ่งปฏิกิริยานี้สามารถเกิดขึ้นได้กับ ทุกชนิดของไขมัน ไม่ว่าจะเป็น ไขมันสัตว์ หรือ น้ำมันพืช ซึ่งอาจส่งผลเสียต่อสุขภาพของเราได้หากได้รับเข้าไปในปริมาณมาก

การทอดและการเกิด AGEs การทอดอาหารที่มีอุณหภูมิสูง เช่น การทอดหมูชุบแป้ง หรืออาหารที่ใช้ น้ำมันพืช เช่น น้ำมันถั่วเหลือง, น้ำมันข้าวโพด หรือ ไขมันสัตว์ เช่น น้ำมันหมู แม้ว่าเราไม่ได้เติมน้ำตาลลงไปในขั้นตอนการเตรียมอาหาร แต่ น้ำตาลธรรมชาติ ที่มีอยู่ในอาหาร เช่น คาร์โบไฮเดรตจากแป้ง, ข้าว, หรือแม้แต่ในเนื้อสัตว์ก็สามารถทำปฏิกิริยากับ กรดอะมิโน (ในโปรตีน) และ ไขมัน (ในเนื้อสัตว์หรืออาหาร) ที่มีอยู่ในอาหารได้ และที่สำคัญคือการทำอาหารที่มีอุณหภูมิสูงจะเพิ่มโอกาสในการเกิดปฏิกิริยานี้

การทอดอาหารด้วยอุณหภูมิสูง (ประมาณ 180 องศาเซลเซียสหรือสูงกว่า) จะทำให้ น้ำตาลธรรมชาติ ในอาหารทำปฏิกิริยากับกรดอะมิโน (จากโปรตีน) หรือกรดไขมัน (จากไขมันในอาหาร) ก่อให้เกิดสาร AGEs ซึ่งเป็น สารพิษ ที่ไม่เพียงแต่ทำให้เกิด การเกิดสารออกซิเดชั่น แต่ยังสามารถทำลายเซลล์ในร่างกาย, เพิ่มความเสี่ยงของการเกิดโรคเรื้อรัง, และทำให้กระบวนการชราภาพของร่างกายเร็วขึ้น

AGEs เกิดได้จากทุกชนิดไขมัน ไม่เพียงแต่ น้ำมันพืช ที่เป็นปัญหาหรือไขมันจากสัตว์ที่ต้องระวัง แต่ AGEs สามารถเกิดได้จากการทอดทุกประเภทไขมันทั้งจากพืชและสัตว์ เพราะ การทอดด้วยความร้อนสูง เป็นปัจจัยหลักที่ทำให้เกิดปฏิกิริยา Maillard reaction (ปฏิกิริยาระหว่างน้ำตาลและโปรตีนหรือไขมัน) ซึ่งเป็นกระบวนการที่สร้างสาร AGEs ดังนั้นไม่ว่าจะเลือกใช้น้ำมันพืชหรือน้ำมันหมูในการทอด ก็ยังสามารถเกิด AGEs ได้

การอบขนมและ AGEs นอกจากนี้การอบขนมที่ใช้ความร้อนประมาณ 180 องศาเซลเซียส (เช่นเดียวกับการทอด) ก็สามารถก่อให้เกิด AGEs ได้เช่นกัน การอบขนมและการปรุงอาหารในอุณหภูมิสูงจึงเป็นปัจจัยที่ส่งผลให้เกิดสารพิษนี้ได้เช่นกัน โดยเฉพาะเมื่อมีส่วนผสมของน้ำตาลธรรมชาติและโปรตีนจากแป้งหรือไขมันในอาหาร การใช้ความร้อนในการอบจึงไม่ต่างจากการทอดเท่าไรในการกระตุ้นการเกิด AGEs

AGEs กับสุขภาพ AGEs ไม่เพียงแต่มีผลเสียในแง่ของการทำให้ร่างกายแก่ก่อนวัย แต่ยังเชื่อมโยงกับโรคเรื้อรังหลายชนิด เช่น โรคเบาหวาน, โรคหัวใจ, โรคหลอดเลือดสมอง และโรคความจำเสื่อม การรับประทานอาหารที่มี AGEs สูงในระยะยาวอาจทำให้การทำงานของเซลล์ในร่างกายลดลง และเพิ่มความเสี่ยงต่อการเกิดโรคต่างๆ ดังนั้นการควบคุมอุณหภูมิในการปรุงอาหาร และการเลือกใช้ไขมันที่เหมาะสมจึงเป็นสิ่งสำคัญในการลดการเกิด AGEs

สรุปแบบสั้นๆให้นะครับว่า การทอดอาหารด้วยอุณหภูมิสูง ไม่ว่าจะใช้น้ำมันพืชหรือไขมันสัตว์ ก็สามารถเกิด AGEs ได้ หากไม่ระมัดระวังในการปรุงอาหาร การเลือกใช้อุณหภูมิที่เหมาะสมในการปรุงอาหารและการเลือกวัตถุดิบที่มีคุณภาพสูงจึงเป็นกุญแจสำคัญในการลดการสะสมของ AGEs ในร่างกาย และช่วยให้เรามีสุขภาพที่ดีในระยะยาว

การรับประทานอาหารที่ปรุงด้วยความร้อนสูงบ่อยๆ นอกจากจะทำให้ร่างกายแก่เร็วขึ้นแล้ว ยังสามารถเพิ่มความเสี่ยงของการเกิดโรคต่างๆ ได้ ดังนั้นเราควรพิจารณาและเลือกวิธีการปรุงอาหารที่เหมาะสมเพื่อลดความเสี่ยงจาก AGEs และดูแลสุขภาพของเราให้ดีในระยะยาวครับ

ทั้งหมดที่เล่ามา ไม่ได้เขียนขึ้นเพื่อทำให้ใครต้องกลัวอาหาร หรือรู้สึกผิดเวลาหยิบของทอดเข้าปาก แต่เพื่อชวนกันมองให้ลึกว่า เราไม่ได้ควรถามแค่ว่า ‘ใช้น้ำมันอะไรดี’ แต่ควรถามต่อว่า ‘เราปรุงยังไง ใช้อุณหภูมิเท่าไร และกินแบบไหนในชีวิตจริง’ ต่างหาก การมีความรู้เรื่อง AGEs ไม่ได้แปลว่าเราต้องตัดทุกอย่างที่เคยชอบออกจากชีวิต แต่เป็นการมีแว่นขยายไว้ส่องดูว่า อะไรที่ควรเบาลง อะไรที่ควรปรับ แล้วใช้มันอย่างรู้เท่าทัน เพราะสุดท้ายแล้ว สุขภาพที่ดี ไม่ได้มาจากการห้ามทุกอย่าง แต่มาจากความเข้าใจในสิ่งที่เรากินต่างหากครับ

เวทีอุตสาหกรรมตัดต่อพันธุกรรมระดับโลก ที่กำลังจะเปลี่ยนอาหารทั้งระบบให้เป็นของบริษัทต่างๆ "Precision Fermentation" ซึ่งฟังดูเหมือนคล้ายการทำโยเกิร์ตหรือเบียร์ใช่มะ แต่ความจริงมันคือ การออกแบบชีวิตใหม่เพื่อขายเป็นอาหารครับ

เรามาเรียกชื่อตอนนี้ให้เท่ๆว่า Precision Fermentation จากถังหมัก สู่กับดักพันธุกรรม

Precision Fermentation (PF) ต่อจากนี้ไปอยากให้จำคำนี้ไว้ให้ดีๆ อ่านข่าวอาหารอะไรคอยดูว่ามีคำนี้ไหม มันคือการใช้ จุลินทรีย์ที่ถูกดัดแปลงพันธุกรรม (GMO yeast, bacteria, fungi) เพื่อผลิต “สารอาหาร” เช่น โปรตีนจากนม ไข่ขาว ไขมันสัตว์ เจลาติน วิตามิน โดยไม่ต้องมีสัตว์จริงอยู่ในระบบเลยสัก ใช้ตัวจุดขายว่า “อาหารแห่งอนาคตที่ปลอดสัตว์ เป็นมิตรกับโลก”

แต่เบื้องหลังมันคือ... ระบบปิดที่บริษัทเดียวควบคุมตั้งแต่สายพันธุ์จุลินทรีย์ เครื่องจักร ไปจนถึงสิทธิบัตรของอาหารทุกชิ้น

เป็นการหมักชีวิตให้กลายเป็นกรรมสิทธิ์ ในระบบ PF นักวิจัยจะเลือก DNA จากสัตว์ เช่น เคซีน (โปรตีนนมวัว) อัลบูมิน (โปรตีนไข่) ฮีม (กลิ่นเลือดในเนื้อวัว) แล้วเอาไปใส่ไว้ในยีสต์หรือจุลินทรีย์ เพื่อให้มัน "หมัก" ผลิตสารเหล่านี้ออกมาในถังขนาดใหญ่

ฟังดูน่าสนใจใช่ไหมครับ? แต่ DNA เหล่านั้นจะถูกจดสิทธิบัตรทันที และจุลินทรีย์เหล่านั้นก็จะถูกควบคุมโดยบริษัทไม่กี่รายเท่านั้น หมายความว่า โปรตีนจากไข่ นม หรือเนื้อ จะกลายเป็น “กรรมสิทธิ์ของบริษัท” ไม่ใช่ของธรรมชาติอีกต่อไป

บริษัทไหนบ้างที่เล่นเกมนี้ เรามาลองดูตัวอย่างกันครับ Perfect Day – ผลิตโปรตีนนมด้วยยีสต์ GMO The EVERY Company – ไข่ขาวจากเชื้อรา Clara Foods – โปรตีนจากไข่ด้วย PF Motif FoodWorks – กลิ่นเนื้อและไขมันจาก PF Impossible Foods – ฮีม (heme) จากถั่วเหลือง GMO ที่หมักด้วยยีสต์ดัดแปลง และที่สำคัญเหมือนเดิมครับเบื้องหลังคือเงินทุนจาก SoftBank, Bill Gates, Google Ventures และบริษัทอาหารระดับโลก เช่น Nestlé, Tyson Foods, Unilever

คำถามก็คือมันคืออาหารหรือเคมี เพราะสิ่งที่ได้จาก PF มักมีสถานะก้ำกึ่งระหว่างอาหารกับสารเคมี นอกจากนี้ยังมีงานวิจัยน้อยมากเรื่องผลกระทบต่อร่างกายระยะยาว ไม่ผ่านการพิสูจน์ในระบบย่อยอาหารมนุษย์อย่างชัดเจน หลายชนิดไม่บอกบนฉลากว่าได้จาก GMO fermentation หรือไม่ และบางบริษัทจงใจเรียกของตัวเองว่า “non-animal” เพื่อเลี่ยงการเปิดเผยว่าเป็น GMO

แต่สิ่งที่คาดว่าน่าจะเกิดขึ้นแน่ๆคือ 1.การครอบครองพันธุกรรมของสิ่งมีชีวิต ทุกยีสต์หรือจุลินทรีย์ในระบบ PF ถูก “จดสิทธิบัตร” ทั้งหมด ใครเลียนแบบ โดนฟ้อง ใครผลิตเองโดยไม่ได้รับอนุญาต โดนปิดกิจการ 2.การขับไล่เกษตรกรออกจากระบบอาหาร ไม่ต้องรีดนม ไม่ต้องเก็บไข่ ไม่ต้องเลี้ยงสัตว์ บริษัทไม่ต้องพึ่งเกษตรกรเลย แล้วใครจะอยู่รอดในระบบนี้? 3.การกำหนดราคาโดยผูกขาด PF ทำให้บริษัทมีอำนาจควบคุมแหล่งโปรตีน ถ้าบริษัทไม่ขาย หรือขายแพง ก็ไม่มีใครมีอำนาจต่อรอง 4.การขาดเสรีภาพในการเลือกอาหาร ถ้าของจริงถูกลดบทบาท และของเทียมถูกยัดใส่ผลิตภัณฑ์ทั่วไปแบบไม่ระบุฉลาก คนจะถูกหลอกว่า "กินอาหาร" ทั้งที่จริงๆ กำลังกินผลิตภัณฑ์ชีววิศวกรรมที่ไม่มีใครรู้แน่ชัดว่าปลอดภัยจริงไหม

หากอาหารของโลกต้องผ่านถังหมัก ผ่านโรงงาน ผ่านระบบสิทธิบัตร และต้องขอใบอนุญาตจากบริษัทยักษ์ทุกครั้งที่ผลิต โลกเราจะเหลือ “อาหารจากธรรมชาติ” แค่ในนิทานพื้นบ้าน อาหารที่ปู่ย่าตายายเคยปลูก เคยเลี้ยง เคยกิน อาจกลายเป็นของผิดกฎหมายในโลกอนาคต เพราะ ของที่ไม่ผ่านระบบ PF จะถูกตีตราว่า “ไม่สะอาด” หรือ “ไม่ยั่งยืน”

สิ่งที่ต้องรอดูต่อไปคือ เกมส์การโจมตีอาหาร real food จะมาในรูปแบบใดบ้าง ความสะอาด โรค หรือ การกีดกัน

เอาเป็นว่าถ้าคุณคิดว่ามันอีกยาวไกล ลองค้นคว้าดูไหมครับว่า นมโอ้ต ผลิตมาอย่างไร 5555

As we enter Holy Week, we are confronted with a world steeped in sin, strife, conflict, and mortality. There exists a peculiar fascination among some with societal decline, as if they derive satisfaction from witnessing civilization’s unraveling. This attraction to darkness may reflect their inner turmoil, a desire to see others share in their suffering. Alternatively, it could stem from a profound hopelessness, a belief that life lacks purpose, leading them to wish for its end. The allure of dystopian futures is, indeed, a curious phenomenon.

Alexander Hamilton once yearned for war as a means to elevate his status, a reflection of youthful ambition for decisive action. Such a desire—to distinguish oneself and ascend the social hierarchy—underlies some of the grim visions of the future propagated by certain ideological circles. Their aim is not war itself but a reconfiguration of power, placing authority in the hands of those who affirm their values. For years, such individuals have held sway, yet their influence appears to be waning.

In the absence of hope, many embrace visions of decline. This despair is characteristic of a faltering empire, signaling the end of an era. The younger generation, burdened by weariness, falters under the weight of their circumstances. They lack hope for a brighter future and see no clear path out of life’s monotony. In a word, they are trapped, uncertain of how to proceed.

We witnessed a similar sentiment during the Arab Spring, where upheaval was celebrated as a longed-for revolution, a societal reset. The assassination of a prominent corporate executive, such as the CEO of United Health, evokes a comparable yearning for disruption. There is a desire for a cultural transformation, though its precise nature remains elusive.

Yet, the youth find themselves dominated by the very elites whose rhetoric they echo. Unlike the 1960s, when generational values clashed overtly, today’s power structures co-opt the language of the young, redirecting their frustration toward populist movements. This inversion is a cunning strategy, mitigating the potential for significant rebellion.

The reality remains that the older generation holds the wealth, power, and authority, while the young are consistently marginalized. They are the ones left with little hope, ensnared by the system. However, a quiet rebellion is emerging—one rooted in hope and faith. Many are beginning to see through the falsehoods propagated by those in power. The promises of governmental provision, once alluring, now appear untenable in light of fiscal realities. The youth seek a new source of hope, a renewed perspective. Thankfully, they are beginning to find it, turning toward faith as a foundation for a more optimistic future.

Die Figuren in der Koalition der Willigen entlarven ihre charakterliche Ungeeignetheit für politische Ämter mit Verantwortung für ganze Nationen. Staatliche Entscheidungen dürfen nicht emotionsgesteuert sein. Aber genau das ist derzeit der Fall. Überall wird mit der Moralkeule um sich gehauen. Erwachsene benehmen sich wie im Kindergarten und zeigen ihre fehlende Reife. Von menschlicher Größe ganz zu schweigen.

Bisher war es schön warm unter den Fittichen der USA. Deutschland hat aufgrund seiner Geschichte besonders gut den Nick-August gespielt und sich selbst eine Souveränität vorgelogen, die es so nie gegeben hat. Jetzt sieht es so aus, als wollten die USA Europa in die Freiheit, in die Volljährigkeit entlassen. Es könnte auch sein, dass die USA aus der NATO austreten und sich vor allem um sich selbst kümmern. Allein das würde die Welt schon wesentlich friedlicher machen, denkt man beispielsweise an den Einmarsch in den Irak. Es gehen Gerüchte um, dass Truppen aus Rumänien und Deutschland abgezogen werden sollen.

Vielleicht geht es bei den Friedensverhandlungen zwischen Trump und Putin nicht nur um die Ukraine, sondern, wenn man schon mal dabei ist, auch um die Kräfteverteilung in Europa insgesamt. Waffeneinsätze in der Ukraine wurden maßgeblich von Wiesbaden aus gesteuert. 2026 sollen dort US-Mittelstrecken-Raketen stationiert werden. Der an Führungsstärke kleinste Kanzler der Bundesrepublik, Scholz, hat das brav abgenickt. Der nur noch durch ein Wunder zu verhindernde neue Kanzler, das Glas Gewürzgurken aus dem Sauerland, provoziert Russland mit seiner Ankündigung zu den Taurus-Raketen dafür um so mehr. Da ist man schon fast gewillt, sich den Scholz zurückzuwünschen, als das kleinere Übel.

Statt mit Besonnenheit und Vernunft die veränderte Sicherheitslage mit den USA als eher abtrünnige Schutzmacht neu zu bewerten, hierin auch eine Chance zu sehen, eine starke Botschaft und den Willen auf ein friedliches neues Miteinander in den Fokus zu stellen, reagieren die meisten europäischen politischen „Spitzenkräfte“ mit blindem Aktionismus, der weltenbrandgefährlich ist. Und Deutschland, dass es sich aufgrund seiner Geschichte am wenigsten erlauben könnte, macht mit von der Leyen in Brüssel und Merz, Pistorius und anderen Kriegs-Warm-Uppern am weitesten das Maul auf, obwohl es sich am bedecktesten halten sollte.

Angesichts der Tatsache, dass Europa gegenüber einer Atommacht wie Russland vollkommen wehrlos ist, wäre es wirklich viel gescheiter, sich der neuen Situation anzupassen und ständig Signale der Friedensbereitschaft zu senden. Unterstütz von den Briten und Franzosen schmiegt Brüssel eine Koalition der Friedensuntüchtigen, wie sie Uwe Froschauer aktuell in seinem Buch „Die Friedensuntüchtigen“ beschreibt. In der Rezension von mir gibt es auch einen Link zu einem Review des Inhalts:

https://wassersaege.com/blogbeitraege/buchrezension-die-friedensuntuechtigen-von-uwe-froschauer/

Stattdessen passiert das Gegenteil.

Es ist nicht nur legitim, sondern sogar Aufgabe der einzelnen Staaten, eine gewisse Verteidigungsfähigkeit aufbauen zu wollen. Derzeit geschieht das jedoch unter falschen Vorzeichen. Die NATO, als sogenanntes Verteidigungsbündnis zur Vorlage zu nehmen, wäre keine gute Idee, weil sie sich mangels Gelegenheit (der Verteidigung) eher als das Gegenteil herausgestellt hat, wie man seinerzeit in Jugoslawien erleben musste.

Russland als Feind hochzustilisieren, um ein Aufrüsten zu beschleunigen, ist jedoch der denkbar falscheste Weg. Wenn ein Yorkshire-Terrier einen Pit-Bull ankläfft, könnte das fatale Folgen haben. Wenn die europäischen „Geistesgrößen“ bei Verstand wären und in der Lage, die Realität richtig einzuschätzen, würden sie das erkennen.

Woher kommt die Überheblichkeit, woher die Unfähigkeit zur Einschätzung der Lage, woher die Realitätsverweigerung? Ist das gewollt, steckt ein Plan dahinter oder sind „die“ einfach „nur“ strunzendoof? Letzteres wäre die gefährlichste Variante.

Es stellt sich immer mehr heraus, dass Corona offensichtlich ein Test war, wie weit die Menschen in ihrer Obrigkeitshörigkeit zu treiben sind. Wie dumm und gefolgsam sind die Schafe wirklich?

Bei einer Lieferung von Taurus-Raketen, die von Deutschen gesteuert werden müssen, könnte es vielleicht gelingen, die Krim-Brücke zu zerstören. Den Kriegsverlauf würde das jedoch nicht beeinflussen. Russland gewinnt so oder so. Im Gegenteil, die Folgen für Deutschland würden den dort möglicherweise angerichteten Schaden bei weitem übertreffen.

Während ich schreibe kommt gerade auf RT DE (aufgrund der „Pressefreiheit“ verzichtet man derzeit offiziell auf diesen Sender) folgende Meldung rein: Russisches Außenministerium: Taurus-Einsatz bedeutet deutsche Kriegsbeteiligung.

https://rtde.site/international/242696-russisches-aussenministerium-taurus-einsatz-bedeutet/

Es ist nicht nachvollziehbar, dass Merz offensichtlich nicht in der Lage ist anzuerkennen, dass Russland über Oreschnik-Raketen verfügt. Er scheint nicht in der Lage zu sein, die möglichen Folgen einschätzen zu können. Genau so wenig wie Pistorius. Die beiden kommen einem vor, wie zwei, die sich im stockfinsteren Wald verirrt haben und sich gegenseitig Mut zusprechen.

Nach wie vor gibt es keine fundierten Beweise dafür, dass Russland die Absicht hat, Deutschland auf unschöne Weise bereisen zu wollen. Das kann nicht oft genug gesagt werden.

Wie schon vor dem Ukraine-Konflikt, durch ein ständiges mit der NATO-Osterweiterung Russland-immer-näher-auf-die-Pelle-rücken, streut jetzt Europa, Deutschland, der Kriegskanzler Salz in die Wunde und Russland sagt ständig: Stoy, so geht das nicht!

Wenn wir eine Bedrohungslage haben, dann die, dass das aktuelle Regime den Deutschen in seinem Wehrwahn mit Wehrpflicht und einer bevorstehenden russischen Invasion droht, obwohl es, man kann es wirklich nicht oft genug sagen, keine reale Bedrohung durch Russland gibt.

In einem Interview im deutschen Propaganda-Funk faselt Pistorius davon, dass in einem „Schnuppercamp der Bundesmarine“ in Kiel für Teenager ab 16 Jahre, er gar nichts Verwerfliches daran finden kann. „Die schießen ja nicht…“, „Wir bringen ihnen ja nicht das Töten bei mit 17, sondern wir bereiten sie vor auf eine Ausbildung zum Soldaten. Und Soldat ist ein sehr ehrenwerter Beruf, der nämlich dazu dient, unsere Freiheit und Sicherheit im Ernstfall zu verteidigen.“ Dass diese Verteidigung tödlich enden kann, wird hier verschwiegen. Das könnte schließlich Teile der Soldaten verunsichern.

Ein Politikwissenschaftler regt sich über den Titel eines Liedes auf:

-Da stört sich doch tatsächlich jemand an der Liedzeile „Meine Söhne geb‘ ich nicht“-

https://www.nachdenkseiten.de/?p=131733

Man hat das Gefühl, dass alle Politiker, statt wie Obelix in den Zaubertrank, in ein Fass Teflon-Lack gefallen sind. Anders ist es nicht zu erklären, warum die Realität so perfekt an ihnen abperlt.

Wir werden immer mehr in die Enge getrieben. Und man weiß nicht, was im Zuge der digitalisierten Überwachung, die auch in Russland kräftig Fahrt aufnimmt, zwischen den USA und Russland sonst noch ausgehandelt wird. Auch, wenn Vance derzeit von UK-Premier Keir Starmer fordert, er müsse die Gesetze gegen „Hassrede“ aufheben, um ein Handelsabkommen mit den USA zu erzielen, und das eine Vorankündigung auf die Verhandlungen mit der EU sein könnte, (Bedingung: Abschaffung des Digital Services Act). In den USA gibt es Tech-Giganten, wie Musk und Thiel und Konsorten, die mit Umlegen eines Schalters, den derzeit augenscheinlichen Kampf für Meinungsfreiheit und Freiheit der Bürger, im Handumdrehen ins Gegenteil verqueren können. Dann sind wir in Null Komma Nichts in der Versklavung mit einem Totalitarismus und einer Technokratie gelandet, in der sich Georg Orwells „1984“ wie eine Gute-Nacht-Geschichte für kleine Kinder anhört.

I created a GitHub repository at https://github.com/Marc26z/ZapShirts. Here is a copy of the README.md

ZapShirts

This is an idea I have to make t-shirts that are also bitcoin point-of-sale terminals.

Create T-Shirt Point-Of-Sale

The idea is to create a bitcoin point of sale on a T-shirt. You can use it to sell stickers at a conference or have a friend pay you back for dinner. It is only limited by your imagination.

Why Would Anybody Need A ZapShirt?

I no longer "orange pill" local businesses. I do not care if they wish to accept bitcoin, but I want to be the change in the world I want to see. I will accept bitcoin on a T-Shirt to show others how easy it is to accept bitcoin as a p2p electronic cash system. Anyone can accept bitcoin as payment if they want to. You could print a sign on a piece of paper if you wanted to. The problem was, nobody I asked wanted a sign, even bitcoiners. So I asked myself...Self, what if you did the opposite? What if the customer accepted bitcoin, but the business owner did not.

I also thought it would be pretty cool T-Shirt to wear at meet-ups.

How To Make Your Own Zap Shirt

1. Create a QR code that sends you to your coinos page, getalby page, strike or whatever you feel comfortable using. This can easily be done at https://libreqr.com/
2. Use a program like gimp to replace the default QR Code with your own QR code on the file.
3. Create the shirt.

To support this please zap me or buy one from my store.

Can I Buy A Zap Shirt?

Yes. If you would like a shirt, hit me up on nostr

I like the idea of open sourcing my ideas and trying to sell them for sats on the Internet. I am currently working on a site to sell things like this and my gift cards. I feel a little uneasy because I haven't been writing much, but I've been building. The idea is to create bitcoin educational products and services. Onward.

@ 9063ef6b:fd1e9a09

This is my second article. I find the idea of using a user friendly 2FA-style code on a secondary device really fascinating.

I have to admit, I don’t fully grasp all the technical details behind it—but nonetheless, I wanted to share the idea as it came to mind. Maybe it is technical nonsense...

So here it is—feel free to tear the idea apart and challenge it! :)

Idea

This Article describes method for passphrase validation and wallet access control in Bitcoin software wallets using a block-based Time-based One-Time Password (TOTP) mechanism. Unlike traditional TOTP systems, this approach leverages blockchain data—specifically, Bitcoin block height and block hash—combined with a securely stored secret to derive a dynamic 6-digit validation code. The system enables user-friendly, secure access to a wallet without directly exposing or requiring the user to memorize a fixed passphrase.

1. Introduction

Secure access to Bitcoin wallets often involves a mnemonic seed and an optional passphrase. However, passphrases can be difficult for users to manage securely. This paper introduces a system where a passphrase is encrypted locally and can only be decrypted upon validation of a 6-digit code generated from blockchain metadata. A mobile app, acting as a secure TOTP generator, supplies the user with this code.

2. System Components

2.1 Fixed Passphrase

A strong, high-entropy passphrase is generated once during wallet creation. It is never exposed to the user but is instead encrypted and stored locally on the desktop system (eg. bitbox02 - sparrow wallet).

2.2 Mobile App

The mobile app securely stores the shared secret (passphrase) and generates a 6-digit code using: - The current Bitcoin block height - The corresponding block hash - A fixed internal secret (stored in Secure Enclave or Android Keystore)

Offline App - current block_hash and block_height scanned with qr code.6-digit code generation after scanning the information.

2.3 Decryption and Validation

On the desktop (e.g. in Sparrow Wallet or wrapper script), the user inputs the 6-digit code. The software fetches current block data (block_height, block_hash), recreates the decryption key using the same HMAC derivation as the mobile app, and decrypts the locally stored passphrase. If successful, the wallet is unlocked.

3. Workflow

1. Wallet is created with a strong passphrase.
2. Passphrase is encrypted using a key derived from the initial block hash + block height + secret.
3. User installs mobile app and shares the fixed secret securely.
4. On wallet access:
5. User retrieves current code from the app.
6. Enters it into Sparrow or a CLI prompt.
7. Wallet software reconstructs the key, decrypts the passphrase.
8. If valid, the wallet is opened.

4. Security Properties

• Two-Factor Protection: Combines device possession and blockchain-derived time-based data.
• Replay Resistance: Codes change with every block (~10 min cycle).
• Minimal Attack Surface: Passphrase never typed or copied.
• Hardware-Backed Secrets: Mobile app secret stored in non-exportable secure hardware.

5. Future Work

• Direct integration into Bitcoin wallet GUIs (e.g. Sparrow plugin)
• QR-based sync between mobile and desktop
• Support for multiple wallets or contexts

6. Conclusion

This approach provides a balance between security and usability for Bitcoin wallet users by abstracting away fixed passphrases and leveraging the immutability and regularity of the Bitcoin blockchain. It is a highly adaptable concept for enterprise or personal use cases seeking to improve wallet access security without introducing user friction.

Prophet Jesus peace be upon him was never killed, he was saved by God and raised to heavens body and soul.

4:157 An-Nisaa

‎وَقَوْلِهِمْ إِنَّا قَتَلْنَا الْمَسِيحَ عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَمَا قَتَلُوهُ وَمَا صَلَبُوهُ وَلَٰكِنْ شُبِّهَ لَهُمْ ۚ وَإِنَّ الَّذِينَ اخْتَلَفُوا فِيهِ لَفِي شَكٍّ مِنْهُ ۚ مَا لَهُمْ بِهِ مِنْ عِلْمٍ إِلَّا اتِّبَاعَ الظَّنِّ ۚ وَمَا قَتَلُوهُ يَقِينًا

And because of their saying (in boast), "We killed Messiah 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), the Messenger of Allah," - but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but the resemblance of 'Iesa (Jesus) was put over another man (and they killed that man), and those who differ therein are full of doubts. They have no (certain) knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely; they killed him not [i.e. 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)]:

4:158 An-Nisaa

‎بَلْ رَفَعَهُ اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ ۚ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ عَزِيزًا حَكِيمًا

But Allah raised him ['Iesa (Jesus)] up (with his body and soul) unto Himself (and he is in the heavens). And Allah is Ever All-Powerful, All-Wise.

Jesus, peace be upon him, is neither God nor his son.

5:17 Al-Maaida

‎لَقَدْ كَفَرَ الَّذِينَ قَالُوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ ۚ قُلْ فَمَنْ يَمْلِكُ مِنَ اللَّهِ شَيْئًا إِنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُهْلِكَ الْمَسِيحَ ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ وَأُمَّهُ وَمَنْ فِي الْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًا ۗ وَلِلَّهِ مُلْكُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا ۚ يَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَاءُ ۚ وَاللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

They have certainly disbelieved who say that Allah is Christ, the son of Mary. Say, "Then who could prevent Allah at all if He had intended to destroy Christ, the son of Mary, or his mother or everyone on the earth?" And to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them. He creates what He wills, and Allah is over all things competent.

5:18 Al-Maaida

‎وَقَالَتِ الْيَهُودُ وَالنَّصَارَىٰ نَحْنُ أَبْنَاءُ اللَّهِ وَأَحِبَّاؤُهُ ۚ قُلْ فَلِمَ يُعَذِّبُكُمْ بِذُنُوبِكُمْ ۖ بَلْ أَنْتُمْ بَشَرٌ مِمَّنْ خَلَقَ ۚ يَغْفِرُ لِمَنْ يَشَاءُ وَيُعَذِّبُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ ۚ وَلِلَّهِ مُلْكُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا ۖ وَإِلَيْهِ الْمَصِيرُ

But the Jews and the Christians say, "We are the children of Allah and His beloved." Say, "Then why does He punish you for your sins?" Rather, you are human beings from among those He has created. He forgives whom He wills, and He punishes whom He wills. And to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, and to Him is the [final] destination.

5:72 Al-Maaida

‎لَقَدْ كَفَرَ الَّذِينَ قَالُوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ ۖ وَقَالَ الْمَسِيحُ يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ اعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ رَبِّي وَرَبَّكُمْ ۖ إِنَّهُ مَنْ يُشْرِكْ بِاللَّهِ فَقَدْ حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ الْجَنَّةَ وَمَأْوَاهُ النَّارُ ۖ وَمَا لِلظَّالِمِينَ مِنْ أَنْصَارٍ

‎‏Surely, they have disbelieved who say: "Allah is the Messiah ['Iesa (Jesus)], son of Maryam (Mary)." But the Messiah ['Iesa (Jesus)] said: "O Children (descendants) of Israel! Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord." Verily, whosoever sets up partners in worship with Allah, then Allah has forbidden Paradise for him, and the Fire will be his abode. And for the Zalimun (unjust, polytheists and wrong-doers) there are no helpers.

‎‏5:73 Al-Maaida

‎لَقَدْ كَفَرَ الَّذِينَ قَالُوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ ثَالِثُ ثَلَاثَةٍ ۘ وَمَا مِنْ إِلَٰهٍ إِلَّا إِلَٰهٌ وَاحِدٌ ۚ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَنْتَهُوا عَمَّا يَقُولُونَ لَيَمَسَّنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ

‎‏Surely, disbelievers are those who said: "Allah is the third of the three (in a Trinity)." But there is no ilah (god) (none who has the right to be worshipped) but One Ilah (God; Allah). And if they do not cease from what they say, verily, a painful torment will befall the disbelievers among them.

5:74 Al-Maaida

‎أَفَلَا يَتُوبُونَ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَيَسْتَغْفِرُونَهُ ۚ وَاللَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ

Will they not repent to Allah and ask His Forgiveness? For Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

5:75 Al-Maaida

‎مَا الْمَسِيحُ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ إِلَّا رَسُولٌ قَدْ خَلَتْ مِنْ قَبْلِهِ الرُّسُلُ وَأُمُّهُ صِدِّيقَةٌ ۖ كَانَا يَأْكُلَانِ الطَّعَامَ ۗ انْظُرْ كَيْفَ نُبَيِّنُ لَهُمُ الْآيَاتِ ثُمَّ انْظُرْ أَنَّىٰ يُؤْفَكُونَ

The Messiah ['Iesa (Jesus)], son of Maryam (Mary), was no more than a Messenger; many were the Messengers that passed away before him. His mother [Maryam (Mary)] was a Siddiqah [i.e. she believed in the words of Allah and His Books (see Verse 66:12)]. They both used to eat food (as any other human being, while Allah does not eat). Look how We make the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) clear to them, yet look how they are deluded away (from the truth).

5:76 Al-Maaida

‎قُلْ أَتَعْبُدُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ مَا لَا يَمْلِكُ لَكُمْ ضَرًّا وَلَا نَفْعًا ۚ وَاللَّهُ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ

Say, "Do you worship besides Allah that which holds for you no [power of] harm or benefit while it is Allah who is the Hearing, the Knowing?"

5:77 Al-Maaida

‎قُلْ يَا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ لَا تَغْلُوا فِي دِينِكُمْ غَيْرَ الْحَقِّ وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا أَهْوَاءَ قَوْمٍ قَدْ ضَلُّوا مِنْ قَبْلُ وَأَضَلُّوا كَثِيرًا وَضَلُّوا عَنْ سَوَاءِ السَّبِيلِ

Say, "O People of the Scripture, do not exceed limits in your religion beyond the truth and do not follow the inclinations of a people who had gone astray before and misled many and have strayed from the soundness of the way."

Al-An'aam verse 100 ‎وَجَعَلُوا لِلَّهِ شُرَكَاءَ الْجِنَّ وَخَلَقَهُمْ ۖ وَخَرَقُوا لَهُ بَنِينَ وَبَنَاتٍ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ ۚ سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ Yet, they join the jinns as partners in worship with Allah, though He has created them (the jinns), and they attribute falsely without knowledge sons and daughters to Him. Be He Glorified and Exalted above (all) that they attribute to Him. Verse 101 ‎بَدِيعُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ ۖ أَنَّىٰ يَكُونُ لَهُ وَلَدٌ وَلَمْ تَكُنْ لَهُ صَاحِبَةٌ ۖ وَخَلَقَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ ۖ وَهُوَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ He is the Originator of (created in beautiful form) the heavens and the earth. How can He have children when He has no wife (companion)? He created all things and He is the All-Knower of everything. Verse 102 ‎ذَٰلِكُمُ اللَّهُ رَبُّكُمْ ۖ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۖ خَالِقُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ فَاعْبُدُوهُ ۚ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَكِيلٌ Such is Allah, your Lord! La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the Creator of all things. So worship Him (Alone), and He is the Wakil (Trustee, Disposer of affairs, Guardian, etc.) over all things. Verse 103 ‎لَا تُدْرِكُهُ الْأَبْصَارُ وَهُوَ يُدْرِكُ الْأَبْصَارَ ۖ وَهُوَ اللَّطِيفُ الْخَبِيرُ No vision can grasp Him, but His Grasp is over all vision. He is the Most Subtle and Courteous, Well-Acquainted with all things. Verse 104 ‎قَدْ جَاءَكُمْ بَصَائِرُ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ ۖ فَمَنْ أَبْصَرَ فَلِنَفْسِهِ ۖ وَمَنْ عَمِيَ فَعَلَيْهَا ۚ وَمَا أَنَا عَلَيْكُمْ بِحَفِيظٍ

Verily, proofs have come to you from your Lord, so whosoever sees, will do so for (the good of) his ownself, and whosoever blinds himself, will do so to his own harm, and I am not a watcher over you.

In the following a narration of a conversation between God and Prophet Jesus, peace be upon him:

5:116 Al-Maaida

‎وَإِذْ قَالَ اللَّهُ يَا عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ أَأَنْتَ قُلْتَ لِلنَّاسِ اتَّخِذُونِي وَأُمِّيَ إِلَٰهَيْنِ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ ۖ قَالَ سُبْحَانَكَ مَا يَكُونُ لِي أَنْ أَقُولَ مَا لَيْسَ لِي بِحَقٍّ ۚ إِنْ كُنْتُ قُلْتُهُ فَقَدْ عَلِمْتَهُ ۚ تَعْلَمُ مَا فِي نَفْسِي وَلَا أَعْلَمُ مَا فِي نَفْسِكَ ۚ إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ

And (remember) when Allah will say (on the Day of Resurrection): "O 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)! Did you say unto men: 'Worship me and my mother as two gods besides Allah?' " He will say: "Glory to You! It was not for me to say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, You would surely have known it. You know what is in my inner-self though I do not know what is in Yours, truly, You, only You, are the All-Knower of all that is hidden and unseen.

5:117 Al-Maaida

‎مَا قُلْتُ لَهُمْ إِلَّا مَا أَمَرْتَنِي بِهِ أَنِ اعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ رَبِّي وَرَبَّكُمْ ۚ وَكُنْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ شَهِيدًا مَا دُمْتُ فِيهِمْ ۖ فَلَمَّا تَوَفَّيْتَنِي كُنْتَ أَنْتَ الرَّقِيبَ عَلَيْهِمْ ۚ وَأَنْتَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَهِيدٌ

"Never did I say to them aught except what You (Allah) did command me to say: 'Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord.' And I was a witness over them while I dwelt amongst them, but when You took me up, You were the Watcher over them, and You are a Witness to all things. (This is a great admonition and warning to the Christians of the whole world).

5:118 Al-Maaida

‎إِنْ تُعَذِّبْهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ عِبَادُكَ ۖ وَإِنْ تَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ فَإِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ

"If You punish them, they are Your slaves, and if You forgive them, verily You, only You are the All-Mighty, the All-Wise."

5:119 Al-Maaida

‎قَالَ اللَّهُ هَٰذَا يَوْمُ يَنْفَعُ الصَّادِقِينَ صِدْقُهُمْ ۚ لَهُمْ جَنَّاتٌ تَجْرِي مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْأَنْهَارُ خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا أَبَدًا ۚ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُوا عَنْهُ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِيمُ

Allah will say: "This is a Day on which the truthful will profit from their truth: theirs are Gardens under which rivers flow (in Paradise) - they shall abide therein forever. Allah is pleased with them and they with Him. That is the great success (Paradise).

5:120 Al-Maaida

‎لِلَّهِ مُلْكُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا فِيهِنَّ ۚ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

To Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all that is therein, and He is Able to do all things.

Jesus, peace be upon him is only a prophet and we (Muslim people) will follow him when he returns before Judgement Day. In Islam, we believe in all prophets chosen by God while making no difference between any of them acknowledging that the last prophet is prophet Mohamed, peace be upon him.

2:285 Al-Baqara ‎آمَنَ الرَّسُولُ بِمَا أُنْزِلَ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ ۚ كُلٌّ آمَنَ بِاللَّهِ وَمَلَائِكَتِهِ وَكُتُبِهِ وَرُسُلِهِ لَا نُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ أَحَدٍ مِنْ رُسُلِهِ ۚ وَقَالُوا سَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا ۖ غُفْرَانَكَ رَبَّنَا وَإِلَيْكَ الْمَصِيرُ The Messenger (Muhammad SAW) believes in what has been sent down to him from his Lord, and (so do) the believers. Each one believes in Allah, His Angels, His Books, and His Messengers. They say, "We make no distinction between one another of His Messengers" - and they say, "We hear, and we obey. (We seek) Your Forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the return (of all)."

27:59 An-Naml ‎قُلِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَسَلَامٌ عَلَىٰ عِبَادِهِ الَّذِينَ اصْطَفَىٰ ۗ آللَّهُ خَيْرٌ أَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ Say: "Praise and thanks be to Allah, and peace be on His servants whom He has chosen (for His Message)! Is Allah better, or (all) that you ascribe as partners (to Him)?" (Of course, Allah is Better). 33:57 Al-Ahzaab ‎إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يُؤْذُونَ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ لَعَنَهُمُ اللَّهُ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُمْ عَذَابًا مُهِينًا Verily, those who cause harm to Allah and His Messenger, Allah has cursed them in this world, and in the Hereafter, and has prepared for them a humiliating torment. 33:58 Al-Ahzaab ‎وَالَّذِينَ يُؤْذُونَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتِ بِغَيْرِ مَا اكْتَسَبُوا فَقَدِ احْتَمَلُوا بُهْتَانًا وَإِثْمًا مُبِينًا And those who cause harm believing men and women undeservedly, bear on themselves the crime of slander and plain sin.

Some of the miracles shown by prophet Jesus peace be upon him are mentioned in the Quran in the following verses.

5:110 Al-Maaida

‎إِذْ قَالَ اللَّهُ يَا عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ اذْكُرْ نِعْمَتِي عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَىٰ وَالِدَتِكَ إِذْ أَيَّدْتُكَ بِرُوحِ الْقُدُسِ تُكَلِّمُ النَّاسَ فِي الْمَهْدِ وَكَهْلًا ۖ وَإِذْ عَلَّمْتُكَ الْكِتَابَ وَالْحِكْمَةَ وَالتَّوْرَاةَ وَالْإِنْجِيلَ ۖ وَإِذْ تَخْلُقُ مِنَ الطِّينِ كَهَيْئَةِ الطَّيْرِ بِإِذْنِي فَتَنْفُخُ فِيهَا فَتَكُونُ طَيْرًا بِإِذْنِي ۖ وَتُبْرِئُ الْأَكْمَهَ وَالْأَبْرَصَ بِإِذْنِي ۖ وَإِذْ تُخْرِجُ الْمَوْتَىٰ بِإِذْنِي ۖ وَإِذْ كَفَفْتُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْكَ إِذْ جِئْتَهُمْ بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ فَقَالَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْهُمْ إِنْ هَٰذَا إِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُبِينٌ

[The Day] when Allah will say, "O Jesus, Son of Mary, remember My favor upon you and upon your mother when I supported you with the Pure Spirit and you spoke to the people in the cradle and in maturity; and [remember] when I taught you writing and wisdom and the Torah and the Gospel; and when you designed from clay [what was] like the form of a bird with My permission, then you breathed into it, and it became a bird with My permission; and you healed the blind and the leper with My permission; and when you brought forth the dead with My permission; and when I restrained the Children of Israel from [killing] you when you came to them with clear proofs and those who disbelieved among them said, "This is not but obvious magic."

5:111 Al-Maaida

‎وَإِذْ أَوْحَيْتُ إِلَى الْحَوَارِيِّينَ أَنْ آمِنُوا بِي وَبِرَسُولِي قَالُوا آمَنَّا وَاشْهَدْ بِأَنَّنَا مُسْلِمُونَ

And [remember] when I inspired to the disciples, "Believe in Me and in My messenger Jesus." They said, "We have believed, so bear witness that indeed we are Muslims [in submission to Allah]."

5:112 Al-Maaida ‎إِذْ قَالَ الْحَوَارِيُّونَ يَا عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ هَلْ يَسْتَطِيعُ رَبُّكَ أَنْ يُنَزِّلَ عَلَيْنَا مَائِدَةً مِنَ السَّمَاءِ ۖ قَالَ اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُؤْمِنِينَ (Remember) when Al-Hawariun (the disciples) said: "O 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)! Can your Lord send down to us a table spread (with food) from heaven?" 'Iesa (Jesus) said: "Fear Allah, if you are indeed believers."

5:113 Al-Maaida ‎قَالُوا نُرِيدُ أَنْ نَأْكُلَ مِنْهَا وَتَطْمَئِنَّ قُلُوبُنَا وَنَعْلَمَ أَنْ قَدْ صَدَقْتَنَا وَنَكُونَ عَلَيْهَا مِنَ الشَّاهِدِينَ They said: "We wish to eat thereof and to be stronger in Faith, and to know that you have indeed told us the truth and that we ourselves be its witnesses."

5:114 Al-Maaida ‎قَالَ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّنَا أَنْزِلْ عَلَيْنَا مَائِدَةً مِنَ السَّمَاءِ تَكُونُ لَنَا عِيدًا لِأَوَّلِنَا وَآخِرِنَا وَآيَةً مِنْكَ ۖ وَارْزُقْنَا وَأَنْتَ خَيْرُ الرَّازِقِينَ 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), said: "O Allah, our Lord! Send us from heaven a table spread (with food) that there may be for us - for the first and the last of us - a festival and a sign from You; and provide us sustenance, for You are the Best of sustainers."

5:115 Al-Maaida ‎قَالَ اللَّهُ إِنِّي مُنَزِّلُهَا عَلَيْكُمْ ۖ فَمَنْ يَكْفُرْ بَعْدُ مِنْكُمْ فَإِنِّي أُعَذِّبُهُ عَذَابًا لَا أُعَذِّبُهُ أَحَدًا مِنَ الْعَالَمِينَ Allah said: "I am going to send it down unto you, but if any of you after that disbelieves, then I will punish him with a torment such as I have not inflicted on anyone among (all) the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns)."

The pregnancy of Mary and the birth of prophet Jesus peace be upon him are also miracles and they are mentioned in the following verses. Jesus peace be upon him himself is a gift to Mary; however God, Allah, created him in the same way he created Adam.

3:8 Aal-i-Imraan

رَبَّنَا لَا تُزِغْ قُلُوبَنَا بَعْدَ إِذْ هَدَيْتَنَا وَهَبْ لَنَا مِنْ لَدُنْكَ رَحْمَةً ۚ إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْوَهَّابُ

[Who say], "Our Lord, let not our hearts deviate after You have guided us and grant us from Yourself mercy. Indeed, You are the Bestower. 3:45 Aal-i-Imraan

‎إِذْ قَالَتِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ يَا مَرْيَمُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُبَشِّرُكِ بِكَلِمَةٍ مِنْهُ اسْمُهُ الْمَسِيحُ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ وَجِيهًا فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ وَمِنَ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ

[And mention] when the angels said, "O Mary, indeed Allah gives you good tidings of a word from Him, whose name will be the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary - distinguished in this world and the Hereafter and among those brought near [to Allah].

3:46 Aal-i-Imraan

‎وَيُكَلِّمُ النَّاسَ فِي الْمَهْدِ وَكَهْلًا وَمِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ

He will speak to the people in the cradle and in maturity and will be of the righteous."

3:47 Aal-i-Imraan

‎قَالَتْ رَبِّ أَنَّىٰ يَكُونُ لِي وَلَدٌ وَلَمْ يَمْسَسْنِي بَشَرٌ ۖ قَالَ كَذَٰلِكِ اللَّهُ يَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَاءُ ۚ إِذَا قَضَىٰ أَمْرًا فَإِنَّمَا يَقُولُ لَهُ كُنْ فَيَكُونُ

She said, "My Lord, how will I have a child when no man has touched me?" [The angel] said, "Such is Allah; He creates what He wills. When He decrees a matter, He only says to it, 'Be,' and it is.

‎وَيُعَلِّمُهُ الْكِتَابَ وَالْحِكْمَةَ وَالتَّوْرَاةَ وَالْإِنْجِيلَ

And He will teach him writing and wisdom and the Torah and the Gospel

3:49 Aal-i-Imraan

‎وَرَسُولًا إِلَىٰ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنِّي قَدْ جِئْتُكُمْ بِآيَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ ۖ أَنِّي أَخْلُقُ لَكُمْ مِنَ الطِّينِ كَهَيْئَةِ الطَّيْرِ فَأَنْفُخُ فِيهِ فَيَكُونُ طَيْرًا بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ ۖ وَأُبْرِئُ الْأَكْمَهَ وَالْأَبْرَصَ وَأُحْيِي الْمَوْتَىٰ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ ۖ وَأُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِمَا تَأْكُلُونَ وَمَا تَدَّخِرُونَ فِي بُيُوتِكُمْ ۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَةً لَكُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُؤْمِنِينَ

And [make him] a messenger to the Children of Israel, [who will say], 'Indeed I have come to you with a sign from your Lord in that I design for you from clay [that which is] like the form of a bird, then I breathe into it and it becomes a bird by permission of Allah. And I cure the blind and the leper, and I give life to the dead - by permission of Allah. And I inform you of what you eat and what you store in your houses. Indeed in that is a sign for you, if you are believers.

3:50 Aal-i-Imraan

‎وَمُصَدِّقًا لِمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيَّ مِنَ التَّوْرَاةِ وَلِأُحِلَّ لَكُمْ بَعْضَ الَّذِي حُرِّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ ۚ وَجِئْتُكُمْ بِآيَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ

And [I have come] confirming what was before me of the Torah and to make lawful for you some of what was forbidden to you. And I have come to you with a sign from your Lord, so fear Allah and obey me.

3:51 Aal-i-Imraan

‎إِنَّ اللَّهَ رَبِّي وَرَبُّكُمْ فَاعْبُدُوهُ ۗ هَٰذَا صِرَاطٌ مُسْتَقِيمٌ

Indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is the straight path."

3:52 Aal-i-Imraan

‎۞ فَلَمَّا أَحَسَّ عِيسَىٰ مِنْهُمُ الْكُفْرَ قَالَ مَنْ أَنْصَارِي إِلَى اللَّهِ ۖ قَالَ الْحَوَارِيُّونَ نَحْنُ أَنْصَارُ اللَّهِ آمَنَّا بِاللَّهِ وَاشْهَدْ بِأَنَّا مُسْلِمُونَ

But when Jesus felt [persistence in] disbelief from them, he said, "Who are my supporters for [the cause of] Allah?" The disciples said, "We are supporters for Allah. We have believed in Allah and testify that we are Muslims [submitting to Him].

3:53 Aal-i-Imraan

‎رَبَّنَا آمَنَّا بِمَا أَنْزَلْتَ وَاتَّبَعْنَا الرَّسُولَ فَاكْتُبْنَا مَعَ الشَّاهِدِينَ

Our Lord, we have believed in what You revealed and have followed the messenger Jesus, so register us among the witnesses [to truth]."

3:54 Aal-i-Imraan

‎وَمَكَرُوا وَمَكَرَ اللَّهُ ۖ وَاللَّهُ خَيْرُ الْمَاكِرِينَ

And the disbelievers planned, but Allah planned. And Allah is the best of planners.

3:55 Aal-i-Imraan

‎إِذْ قَالَ اللَّهُ يَا عِيسَىٰ إِنِّي مُتَوَفِّيكَ وَرَافِعُكَ إِلَيَّ وَمُطَهِّرُكَ مِنَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَجَاعِلُ الَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوكَ فَوْقَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ ۖ ثُمَّ إِلَيَّ مَرْجِعُكُمْ فَأَحْكُمُ بَيْنَكُمْ فِيمَا كُنْتُمْ فِيهِ تَخْتَلِفُونَ

[Mention] when Allah said, "O Jesus, indeed I will take you and raise you to Myself and purify you from those who disbelieve and make those who follow you [in submission to Allah alone] superior to those who disbelieve until the Day of Resurrection. Then to Me is your return, and I will judge between you concerning that in which you used to differ.

3:56 Aal-i-Imraan

‎فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا فَأُعَذِّبُهُمْ عَذَابًا شَدِيدًا فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ وَمَا لَهُمْ مِنْ نَاصِرِينَ

And as for those who disbelieved, I will punish them with a severe punishment in this world and the Hereafter, and they will have no helpers."

3:57 Aal-i-Imraan

‎وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ فَيُوَفِّيهِمْ أُجُورَهُمْ ۗ وَاللَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ الظَّالِمِينَ

But as for those who believed and did righteous deeds, He will give them in full their rewards, and Allah does not like the wrongdoers.

3:58 Aal-i-Imraan

‎ذَٰلِكَ نَتْلُوهُ عَلَيْكَ مِنَ الْآيَاتِ وَالذِّكْرِ الْحَكِيمِ

This is what We recite to you, [O Muhammad], of [Our] verses and the precise [and wise] message.

3:59 Aal-i-Imraan

‎إِنَّ مَثَلَ عِيسَىٰ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ كَمَثَلِ آدَمَ ۖ خَلَقَهُ مِنْ تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ كُنْ فَيَكُونُ

Indeed, the example of Jesus to Allah is like that of Adam. He created Him from dust; then He said to him, "Be," and he was.

3:60 Aal-i-Imraan

‎الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَبِّكَ فَلَا تَكُنْ مِنَ الْمُمْتَرِينَ

The truth is from your Lord, so do not be among the doubters.

3:61 Aal-i-Imraan

‎فَمَنْ حَاجَّكَ فِيهِ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا جَاءَكَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ فَقُلْ تَعَالَوْا نَدْعُ أَبْنَاءَنَا وَأَبْنَاءَكُمْ وَنِسَاءَنَا وَنِسَاءَكُمْ وَأَنْفُسَنَا وَأَنْفُسَكُمْ ثُمَّ نَبْتَهِلْ فَنَجْعَلْ لَعْنَتَ اللَّهِ عَلَى الْكَاذِبِينَ

Then whoever argues with you about it after [this] knowledge has come to you - say, "Come, let us call our sons and your sons, our women and your women, ourselves and yourselves, then supplicate earnestly [together] and invoke the curse of Allah upon the liars [among us]."

3:62 Aal-i-Imraan

‎إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ الْقَصَصُ الْحَقُّ ۚ وَمَا مِنْ إِلَٰهٍ إِلَّا اللَّهُ ۚ وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ

Indeed, this is the true narration. And there is no deity except Allah. And indeed, Allah is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

3:63 Aal-i-Imraan

‎فَإِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلِيمٌ بِالْمُفْسِدِينَ

But if they turn away, then indeed - Allah is Knowing of the corrupters.

3:64 Aal-i-Imraan

‎قُلْ يَا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ تَعَالَوْا إِلَىٰ كَلِمَةٍ سَوَاءٍ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمْ أَلَّا نَعْبُدَ إِلَّا اللَّهَ وَلَا نُشْرِكَ بِهِ شَيْئًا وَلَا يَتَّخِذَ بَعْضُنَا بَعْضًا أَرْبَابًا مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ ۚ فَإِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَقُولُوا اشْهَدُوا بِأَنَّا مُسْلِمُونَ

Say, "O People of the Scripture, come to a word that is equitable between us and you - that we will not worship except Allah and not associate anything with Him and not take one another as lords instead of Allah." But if they turn away, then say, "Bear witness that we are Muslims [submitting to Him]."

19:16 Maryam

‎وَاذْكُرْ فِي الْكِتَابِ مَرْيَمَ إِذِ انْتَبَذَتْ مِنْ أَهْلِهَا مَكَانًا شَرْقِيًّا

And mention, [O Muhammad], in the Book [the story of] Mary, when she withdrew from her family to a place toward the east.

19:17 Maryam

‎فَاتَّخَذَتْ مِنْ دُونِهِمْ حِجَابًا فَأَرْسَلْنَا إِلَيْهَا رُوحَنَا فَتَمَثَّلَ لَهَا بَشَرًا سَوِيًّا

And she took, in seclusion from them, a screen. Then We sent to her Our Angel, and he represented himself to her as a well-proportioned man.

19:18 Maryam

‎قَالَتْ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِالرَّحْمَٰنِ مِنْكَ إِنْ كُنْتَ تَقِيًّا

She said, "Indeed, I seek refuge in the Most Merciful from you, [so leave me], if you should be fearing of Allah."

19:19 Maryam

‎قَالَ إِنَّمَا أَنَا رَسُولُ رَبِّكِ لِأَهَبَ لَكِ غُلَامًا زَكِيًّا

He said, "I am only the messenger of your Lord to give you [news of] a pure boy."

19:20 Maryam

‎قَالَتْ أَنَّىٰ يَكُونُ لِي غُلَامٌ وَلَمْ يَمْسَسْنِي بَشَرٌ وَلَمْ أَكُ بَغِيًّا

She said, "How can I have a boy while no man has touched me and I have not been unchaste?"

19:21 Maryam

‎قَالَ كَذَٰلِكِ قَالَ رَبُّكِ هُوَ عَلَيَّ هَيِّنٌ ۖ وَلِنَجْعَلَهُ آيَةً لِلنَّاسِ وَرَحْمَةً مِنَّا ۚ وَكَانَ أَمْرًا مَقْضِيًّا

He said, "Thus [it will be]; your Lord says, 'It is easy for Me, and We will make him a sign to the people and a mercy from Us. And it is a matter [already] decreed.' "

19:22 Maryam

‎۞ فَحَمَلَتْهُ فَانْتَبَذَتْ بِهِ مَكَانًا قَصِيًّا

So she conceived him, and she withdrew with him to a remote place.

19:23 Maryam

‎فَأَجَاءَهَا الْمَخَاضُ إِلَىٰ جِذْعِ النَّخْلَةِ قَالَتْ يَا لَيْتَنِي مِتُّ قَبْلَ هَٰذَا وَكُنْتُ نَسْيًا مَنْسِيًّا

And the pains of childbirth drove her to the trunk of a palm tree. She said, "Oh, I wish I had died before this and was in oblivion, forgotten."

19:24 Maryam

‎فَنَادَاهَا مِنْ تَحْتِهَا أَلَّا تَحْزَنِي قَدْ جَعَلَ رَبُّكِ تَحْتَكِ سَرِيًّا

But he called her from below her, "Do not grieve; your Lord has provided beneath you a stream.

19:25 Maryam

‎وَهُزِّي إِلَيْكِ بِجِذْعِ النَّخْلَةِ تُسَاقِطْ عَلَيْكِ رُطَبًا جَنِيًّا

And shake toward you the trunk of the palm tree; it will drop upon you ripe, fresh dates.

19:26 Maryam

‎فَكُلِي وَاشْرَبِي وَقَرِّي عَيْنًا ۖ فَإِمَّا تَرَيِنَّ مِنَ الْبَشَرِ أَحَدًا فَقُولِي إِنِّي نَذَرْتُ لِلرَّحْمَٰنِ صَوْمًا فَلَنْ أُكَلِّمَ الْيَوْمَ إِنْسِيًّا

So eat and drink and be contented. And if you see from among humanity anyone, say, 'Indeed, I have vowed to the Most Merciful abstention, so I will not speak today to [any] man.' "

19:27 Maryam

‎فَأَتَتْ بِهِ قَوْمَهَا تَحْمِلُهُ ۖ قَالُوا يَا مَرْيَمُ لَقَدْ جِئْتِ شَيْئًا فَرِيًّا

Then she brought him to her people, carrying him. They said, "O Mary, you have certainly done a thing unprecedented.

19:28 Maryam

‎يَا أُخْتَ هَارُونَ مَا كَانَ أَبُوكِ امْرَأَ سَوْءٍ وَمَا كَانَتْ أُمُّكِ بَغِيًّا

O sister of Aaron, your father was not a man of evil, nor was your mother unchaste."

19:29 Maryam

‎فَأَشَارَتْ إِلَيْهِ ۖ قَالُوا كَيْفَ نُكَلِّمُ مَنْ كَانَ فِي الْمَهْدِ صَبِيًّا

So she pointed to him. They said, "How can we speak to one who is in the cradle a child?"

19:30 Maryam

‎قَالَ إِنِّي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ آتَانِيَ الْكِتَابَ وَجَعَلَنِي نَبِيًّا

[Jesus] said, "Indeed, I am the servant of Allah. He has given me the Scripture and made me a prophet.

19:31 Maryam

‎وَجَعَلَنِي مُبَارَكًا أَيْنَ مَا كُنْتُ وَأَوْصَانِي بِالصَّلَاةِ وَالزَّكَاةِ مَا دُمْتُ حَيًّا

And He has made me blessed wherever I am and has enjoined upon me prayer and zakah as long as I remain alive

19:32 Maryam

‎وَبَرًّا بِوَالِدَتِي وَلَمْ يَجْعَلْنِي جَبَّارًا شَقِيًّا

And [made me] dutiful to my mother, and He has not made me a wretched tyrant.

19:33 Maryam

‎وَالسَّلَامُ عَلَيَّ يَوْمَ وُلِدْتُ وَيَوْمَ أَمُوتُ وَيَوْمَ أُبْعَثُ حَيًّا

And peace is on me the day I was born and the day I will die and the day I am raised alive."

19:34 Maryam

‎ذَٰلِكَ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ ۚ قَوْلَ الْحَقِّ الَّذِي فِيهِ يَمْتَرُونَ

That is Jesus, the son of Mary - the word of truth about which they are in dispute.

19:35 Maryam

‎مَا كَانَ لِلَّهِ أَنْ يَتَّخِذَ مِنْ وَلَدٍ ۖ سُبْحَانَهُ ۚ إِذَا قَضَىٰ أَمْرًا فَإِنَّمَا يَقُولُ لَهُ كُنْ فَيَكُونُ

It is not [befitting] for Allah to take a son; exalted is He! When He decrees an affair, He only says to it, "Be," and it is.

19:36 Maryam

‎وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ رَبِّي وَرَبُّكُمْ فَاعْبُدُوهُ ۚ هَٰذَا صِرَاطٌ مُسْتَقِيمٌ

[Jesus said], "And indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is a straight path."

19:37 Maryam

‎فَاخْتَلَفَ الْأَحْزَابُ مِنْ بَيْنِهِمْ ۖ فَوَيْلٌ لِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْ مَشْهَدِ يَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ

Then the factions differed [concerning Jesus] from among them, so woe to those who disbelieved - from the scene of a tremendous Day.

19:38 Maryam

‎أَسْمِعْ بِهِمْ وَأَبْصِرْ يَوْمَ يَأْتُونَنَا ۖ لَٰكِنِ الظَّالِمُونَ الْيَوْمَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُبِينٍ

How [clearly] they will hear and see the Day they come to Us, but the wrongdoers today are in clear error.

19:39 Maryam

‎وَأَنْذِرْهُمْ يَوْمَ الْحَسْرَةِ إِذْ قُضِيَ الْأَمْرُ وَهُمْ فِي غَفْلَةٍ وَهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ

And warn them, [O Muhammad], of the Day of Regret, when the matter will be concluded; and [yet], they are in [a state of] heedlessness, and they do not believe.

In the following verse prophet Jesus peace be upon him told the people of his time about the arrival of prophet Mohamed peace be upon him (please note that Ahmed and Mohamed have the same meaning in Arabic and have the same word origin; the verb Hamad that means thanked).

61:6 As-Saff

‎وَإِذْ قَالَ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ إِنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ إِلَيْكُمْ مُصَدِّقًا لِمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيَّ مِنَ التَّوْرَاةِ وَمُبَشِّرًا بِرَسُولٍ يَأْتِي مِنْ بَعْدِي اسْمُهُ أَحْمَدُ ۖ فَلَمَّا جَاءَهُمْ بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ قَالُوا هَٰذَا سِحْرٌ مُبِينٌ

And [mention] when Jesus, the son of Mary, said, "O children (descendants) of Israel, indeed I am the messenger of Allah to you confirming what came before me of the Torah and bringing good tidings of a messenger to come after me, whose name is Ahmad." But when he came to them with clear evidences, they said, "This is obvious magic."

There aren't many Minecraft servers that have bitcoin involved, but recently I saw a server that finally has one, its called SovereignCraft. A server that is different from Satlantis(Now called Tribyu). How does one differ from Satlantis that got shutdown because of it? I'll tell you why my friend.

What differs between them is that Satlantis had a pay-to-win mechanic where the more "ASICs" you had the more likely you will get a block of sats. Therefore, the clan/player who had the most "ASICs" gets more sats than other players making it unfair for new players. Making it so newbies have to spend more sats than usual just so to get a scratch of sats. To get a picture of that situation think of this

SovereignCraft, however doesnt do that, instead it does actual 1:1 market exchange. It does NOT do virtual mining nor pay-to-win. You simply trade your sats for items you want for minecraft and vice versa.

EDIT: Sovtoshi, the owner of Sovereigncraft made a comment on more of the difference sovereigncraft has than Satlantis/Tribyu. Give it a look

In the wave of digitalization, handwriting as a way to record thoughts and inspire inspiration is gradually being forgotten. Mobile phone notifications, drone hums and ubiquitous wireless signals make it difficult for us to calm down and hold a pen to write. How to regain the time of handwriting and find the pure joy of creation? With the help of tools such as mobile phone jammers, drone jammers and high-power jammers, we can block interference and create a focused writing space.

1. The threat of digital interference to handwriting

Mobile phone intrusion: Frequent notifications, social media and calls interrupt thoughts, making it difficult to focus on the smooth expression between paper and pen.

Drone noise: When writing outdoors, the hum or monitoring of drones not only destroys the atmosphere, but may also cause privacy concerns.

Wireless signal clutter: WiFi, Bluetooth and other signals invisibly distract attention and weaken the immersion when writing.

https://www.jammermfg.com/cell-phone-jammers.html

2. The guardian of handwriting

Mobile phone jammer: By blocking mobile phone signals, mobile phone jammers make your device temporarily "disconnected", eliminating the interference of notifications and calls, suitable for focused writing at home or in a cafe.

Drone jammer: When writing outdoors, drone jammers can block drone signals to prevent their noise or surveillance from disrupting your creative mood.

https://www.jammermfg.com/drone-jammer.html

High-power jammer: For scenes that require a large range of quiet environments, such as writing workshops, high-power jammers can block multiple wireless signals to create a pure "signal pure land".

3. Practical methods to regain handwriting

In addition to using jammers, cultivating handwriting habits can also improve concentration:

• Fixed handwriting time: arrange 30 minutes to 1 hour of "interference-free handwriting time" every day, use mobile phone jammers to ensure that you are not disturbed, and record inspiration or diary.
• Choose a comfortable scene: write in a quiet study or outdoor natural environment, and use drone jammers to protect the tranquility of outdoor creation.

4. Your creative partner

https://www.jammermfg.com/high-power-military-jammer.html

To regain handwriting time, it is crucial to choose a reliable jammer. Jammermfg provides a variety of solutions to meet the needs of different creative scenarios:

• Diversified products: from portable mobile phone jammers to high-power jammers, covering a variety of indoor and outdoor writing environments.
• Professional support: Provide purchase suggestions and usage guidance to ensure that the equipment is perfectly adapted to your handwriting needs.

Conclusion

Handwriting is a bridge between the heart and the world, but we need to actively make room for it. With the help of mobile phone jammers, drone jammers and high-power jammers, combined with scientific writing habits, we can stay away from distractions and regain the fun and depth of handwriting.

Summary and Guide Based on Sam Altman's Classic Post

---

In life and business, almost everyone starts off chasing money. But if you observe closely — especially among those who achieve outlier success — you’ll notice something interesting:

Over time, money becomes secondary. The real obsession becomes making something important happen.

Sam Altman, entrepreneur and CEO of OpenAI, laid out a roadmap to achieving this rare level of success. It’s about much more than working hard or being smart — it’s about how you think, act, and invest your time over decades.

Here's a deep breakdown of his 13 principles — explained, with examples and reflections.

---

1. Compound Yourself

Think exponentially, not linearly.

• Businesses (and careers) that compound — growing 50% per year — become unstoppable over time.
• You want your learning, network, and impact to snowball.
• Focus on adding zeros to your results, not just small wins.

🔎 Example: Instead of focusing on one-off gigs, build skills and systems that grow your results faster every year. Think like an investor, not an hourly worker.

---

2. Have (Almost) Too Much Self-Belief

You have to believe in yourself beyond reason — but stay open to feedback.

• Most real innovation requires contrarian thinking.
• Early critics will tell you you're crazy — and that’s normal.
• Learn to manage your own morale.

🔎 Example: Elon Musk’s absolute certainty about colonizing Mars — even when few believed him — fueled SpaceX’s breakthrough innovations.

---

3. Learn to Think Independently

Original thinking can’t be taught by schools.

• Break problems into first principles instead of copying others.
• Test crazy ideas quickly and cheaply.
• The ability to "figure things out when no one knows what to do" is a superpower.

🔎 Example: Airbnb founders had no roadmap for building a company based on renting strangers' homes — they made it up as they went.

---

4. Get Good at Sales

It’s not enough to have a great idea — you must convince others to join you.

• Great careers and startups are sales jobs: selling visions to investors, customers, and employees.
• The best sales come from genuine belief in what you're building.

🔎 Example: Altman emphasizes in-person interactions: “When it mattered, I always got on the plane.”

---

5. Make It Easy to Take Risks

Big rewards require many small bets and the willingness to look foolish.

• Risk is overestimated; reward is underestimated.
• Stay financially and mentally flexible early in life.

🔎 Example: Leaving a high-paying tech job is hard — but those who leap to start companies often change the world.

---

6. Focus

Doing the right work matters more than working hard on the wrong things.

• Ruthlessly prioritize what truly matters.
• Ignore distractions.
• Be unstoppable once you know what to focus on.

🔎 Example: Startups win by focusing on one core thing until they dominate, not by trying to do everything.

---

7. Work Hard

• Smart + hard work is required to reach the top 1% of any field.
• Success begets success — momentum compounds.
• Find work you love and people you love working with to avoid burnout.

🔎 Example: Early Amazon teams pulled insane hours — but they believed they were building something world-changing.

---

8. Be Bold

• Solve hard problems, not easy ones.
• People are attracted to missions that matter.

🔎 Example: If your dream is gene-editing or AI, don’t settle for building another social media app.

---

9. Be Willful

• The world is more malleable than you think.
• Persistence and optimism often win in the end.

🔎 Example: Airbnb founders survived maxed-out credit cards and endless rejection — but they didn't quit.

---

10. Be Hard to Compete With

• Differentiate yourself through leverage:
• Skills at the intersection of fields
• Strong personal brand
• Unique insights

🔎 Example: Elon Musk isn't just an engineer or marketer — he's both, and that makes him hard to beat.

---

11. Build a Network

• Great accomplishments require great teams.
• Help people long before you need them.
• Spot undiscovered talent early.

🔎 Example: Most of Altman’s best career opportunities came from helping others years before it paid off.

---

12. Own Equity

• Salaries won't make you rich.
• Owning assets (companies, IP, real estate) creates real wealth.

🔎 Example: The richest people in the world — Bezos, Musk, Gates — got there by owning companies, not by drawing salaries.

---

13. Be Internally Driven

• Don’t chase approval or follow the herd.
• Care about doing great work for yourself.
• If you're motivated mainly by status or envy, you will lose focus.

🔎 Example: Jessica Livingston and Paul Graham were mocked early for Y Combinator. They didn’t care — and YC changed the world of startups.

---

💬 Final Thought

Success isn’t about short-term hacks. It’s about long-term habits:
- Think long-term.
- Bet boldly.
- Compound yourself.
- Build something important.

“Eventually, you will define your success by performing excellent work in areas that are important to you. The sooner you start, the further you will go.”

Commit to the path. The rewards — both internal and external — are beyond what most people ever experience.

🌱 Start planting seeds today. Watch them compound beyond imagination. 🚀

Hölderlin taugt immer. Diesmal sogar doppelt. Dass mit der Gefahr das Rettende wächst, hat sich inzwischen herumgesprochen. Raymond Unger ist so ein Anker. Wann immer ich seinen Namen bei einer Veranstaltung erwähne: Die Leute wissen Bescheid. Vom Verlust der Freiheit. Ich hätte zählen sollen, wie oft ich gehört habe: Dieses Buch hat mir die Augen geöffnet. Migration, Klima, Corona: alles drin und vor allem so verflochten, dass zusammenpasst, was eigentlich nicht zusammengehört und unsere Welt auf den Kopf gestellt hat. Viele haben danach Ungers Impfbuch gelesen, sich von seiner Heldenreise inspirieren oder bestätigen lassen und mit ihm um Gunnar Kaiser getrauert (Habe ich genug getan?, 2024). Wer schon länger dabei ist, kennt in der Regel auch Die Wiedergutmacher – ein Psychogramm der Babyboomer, das so nur jemand schreiben kann, der selbst erlebt hat, wie das Weltkriegstrauma vererbt wurde, und als Therapeut die Konzepte kennt, mit denen sich das in Worte fassen lässt.

Der Sachbuchautor Raymond Unger war und ist ein Fremdgänger – ein Künstler, preisgekrönt, den die Not des Beobachters gezwungen hat, das Metier zu wechseln. Der erste Hölderlin. Ohne die große Krise würde dieser Maler vermutlich immer noch nächtelang an seiner Staffelei mit der Materie kämpfen und vor allem mit sich selbst. Wahrscheinlich kennt Raymond Unger auch mein zweites Hölderlin-Zitat: Was aber bleibet, stiften die Dichter. Ich habe diesen Satz gerade wieder gehört aus dem Mund von Peter-Michael Diestel, letzter Innenminister der DDR, der sich mit Gregor Gysi über Heimat unterhält, über den Osten und den Westen und dabei fast zwangsläufig auf die Historiker zu sprechen kommt. „Ärmliches Lohnschreiber-Geschwader“, sagt Diestel und zeichnet ein ganzes anderes Bild von der Vergangenheit als die Geschichtsbücher. „Die DDR ist meine Herkunft. Mein Paradies.“ Sagt einer ihrer Totengräber. Und damit Vorhang auf für die Dichter.

Auf der Bühne steht der Romanautor Raymond Unger, eine Melange aus dem Bildermacher und dem Gesellschaftsanalytiker, die den gleichen Namen tragen. Wuchtig kommt sein Gemälde KAI daher mit Szenen und Orten, von denen jeder Hollywood-Regisseur träumt. Ostsee und Alpen, Berlin, Hamburg und das Silicon Valley. Am Ende Fulda, okay. Davor aber eine Schriftstellerin, Ende 30, attraktiv, Objekt der Begierde zweier reifer Männer, bis die Dame plötzlich im Wortsinn zerfließt, das gute Stück eines der beiden Verehrer beleidigt (klein, was sonst) und auf den Teppich pinkelt. Das ist nur das Vorspiel für einen Antiterroreinsatz in der schwedischen Idylle und Explosionen im Zentrum von Berlin, für ein Auto, das seinen Fahrer wie von Geisterhand gesteuert in den Tod reißt, und für einen Quarterback, der auf dem Spielfeld tot umfällt – zur Primetime, damit jeder weiß, was ihm blühen könnte.

Ich schreibe das, weil ich ein wenig Angst hatte vor diesem Roman. Einer meiner Lieblingsautoren auf neuem Gelände. Wird er sich dort verlaufen, untergehen gar, und mir so einen Fixstern aus meinem Bücherregal nehmen? Nein, nein und nochmal nein. KAI ist ein großer Wurf. KAI ist das Buch, auf das ich gewartet habe. Sicher: Ich habe die Dystopie Hinter der Zukunft von Thomas Eisinger gefeiert, einen Augenöffner ersten Ranges, und ein wenig auch die Corona-Kurzgeschichten von Eugen Zentner. Trotzdem. KAI hat das Zeug, unseren Nachkommen zu berichten, was wir erlebt und erlitten haben. Und vielleicht noch wichtiger: KAI übersetzt all das in ein Märchen, das realer nicht sein könnte und mit einem Ende daherkommt, das die Kämpfe seit den frühen 2010er Jahren mit Sinn auflädt und aus Verlierern Sieger macht. Dazu gleich mehr.

Vorher ein Wort zu Hölderlin und zu seinem Satz über die Dichter, die sagen, was bleibt. Der Mensch ist ein Geschichtentier. Das ist trivial, ich weiß, kann aber nicht oft genug wiederholt werden in einer Zeit, in der eine Regierung sich ins Stammbuch schreibt, dass „die bewusste Verbreitung von falschen Tatsachenbehauptungen“ nicht „durch die Meinungsfreiheit“ gedeckt sei. Falsche Tatsachenbehauptungen. Was soll das sein? 2014 ist Argentinien Fußball-Weltmeister geworden. Oder Tansania. Zwei plus zwei ist fünf und der Autor dieses Textes – eine Frau. Ich muss gar nicht in die Absurditätenkiste greifen, sondern kann in meinem Fachgebiet bleiben. Das 20. Jahrhundert beginnt mit dem Panzerkreuzer Aurora in Petrograd und endet mit den Moskauer Schüssen vom August 1991. Falsch. Falsch? Muss ich künftig Putsch sagen und Sankt Petersburg und hundert Jahre hundert Jahre sein lassen, um der Medienaufsicht nicht ins Netz zu gehen?

Namen, Daten, Orte, Ereignisse: All das rauscht an uns vorbei, wenn es nicht mit einer Story daherkommt und sich nicht einfügen lässt in das, was wir uns über die Menschen und die Welt erzählen. Wer glaubt, dass der Staat ein guter Forscher ist, ein noch besserer Lehrer und der ideale Verwalter aller Vermögen, der wird sich nicht beklagen, wenn Steuergelder in Wissenschaft und Bildung, Kunst und Kultur gepumpt werden und man parallel über einen Lastenausgleich diskutiert. Noch einmal anders gewendet: Es lohnt sich nicht, die Gegenseite mit „Fakten“ und „Tatsachen“ zu bombardieren. Nicht das Fleisch entscheidet, sondern die Sauce. Demokratie, Menschenrechte, Wertewesten. Schwarz-Rot will die „Meinungsfreiheit“ wahren, aber trotzdem „auf der Basis klarer gesetzlicher Vorgaben gegen Informationsmanipulation sowie Hass und Hetze vorgehen“. Alles in einem Satz. Das ist die hohe Schule der Manipulation – möglich nur, weil die Jünger des Parteienstaates gar nicht auf die Idee kommen können, dass im Namen der großen Erzählung Böses getan wird.

Raymond Unger weiß: Wir brauchen eine neue Erzählung. Und wir brauchen Klarheit über die Wucht, die Erzählungen entfalten. Also lässt er Materialisten und Idealisten aufeinander losgehen und öffnet auf dem Höhepunkt der Schlacht „ein Portal zur Anderswelt“, „durch das uralte kosmische Kräfte in unsere physische Welt hineinwirken können“ – bei ihm ein Einfallstor für die „transhumanistische Agenda“ und jene Kräfte, die „alles Menschliche“ verdrängen wollen. Wenn das jetzt kryptisch klingen sollte: keine Sorge. Dieser Autor kann erzählen. Er lässt Freud und Jung in einem Ehepaar auferstehen, das sich so kappelt wie Hans Castorp und Lodovico Settembrini auf dem Zauberberg von Thomas Mann, und mischt das, was er über Klima, 5G und mRNA braucht, in Gespräche mit ChatGPT und kurze Vorträge, die jeder verstehen kann, weil im Publikum Laien sitzen.

Von der Story selbst will ich hier nicht allzu viel verraten. Siehe oben. Wenn man ins Kino geht, reichen auch die Schnipsel aus dem Werbespot und die Gesichter der Helden. Bill Gates spielt mit, Uğur Şahin und Ulrike Herrmann. Leicht verfremdet, aber ja: Es geht schließlich um alles. Den Titel immerhin muss ich auflösen: Bei Raymond Unger sitzt KAI am Hebel. CO2-Märchen, Pandemie-Märchen, das Schlachtfeld Ukraine, Kriegstüchtigkeit: Produkte einer finsteren Macht, die bei ihm aus der Technik wächst und aus der Ideenwelt des Okkultismus, die man aber genauso gut ganz irdisch dort verorten könnte, wo nicht wenige einen „tiefen Staat“ vermuten. Ein guter Roman braucht nicht nur große Gefühle, sondern mehr als eine Ebene. Wer sich wie ich eher an Akteure und Ressourcen hält, kann KAI leicht als Metapher lesen, erst recht in dieser Schreibweise.

Raymond Ungers Gegenerzählung ist nicht neu, aber verlorengegangen auf Plattformen und Bildschirmen, die keine Zwischentöne erlauben und so die Spaltung vorantreiben. Unger sagt: Rettung kommt von da, wo es keine Mehrheiten gibt. Der Außenseiter in der Wissenschaft. Die Menschen, die entscheiden und verzichten und erst so zum Menschen werden. Coronakritiker. Ostdeutsche. Er sagt außerdem: Es gibt U-Boote selbst da, wo die Mehrheiten sind. Schreibt auch die nicht ab, die euch im Moment als Zielscheibe erscheinen. Vor allem aber sagt er: Der Mensch kann Dinge tun, die buchstäblich niemand auf dem Zettel hat. Gegen jede Wahrscheinlichkeit und damit völlig anders als selbst die perfekte Maschine. Nur der Mensch kann sich lösen von dem, was ist, und so Freund Hölderlin alle Ehre machen.

Vielleicht ein Wermutstropfen: Starke Frauen fehlen in seiner Welt. Das heißt: Es gibt starke Frauen, aber nur auf der dunklen Seite der Macht oder als leichtes Opfer von KAI. Ich habe mit zwei Kennerinnen über den Roman gesprochen, die insgesamt sehr angetan waren, aber leicht die Nase rümpften wegen mancher Formulierung und einigen Figuren. Hier und da etwas technokratisch, sagten die beiden, und nicht immer prall im Leben. Was soll man da antworten als Mann. Ich, ein Sachbuchfresser, habe KAI verschlungen. Und: Gut, dass wir endlich auch in der Unterwelt (Walter van Rossum) einen Roman haben, erschienen in einem großen Verlag, über den wir streiten können.

分布式Agentic组织（Distributed Agentic Organizations，DA(gentic)O）正在重塑协作的未来格局，融合智能代理（Agentic AI），跨越加密社区、网络社会与现实世界。但要规模化发展，DA(gentic)O 需要更友好的 Agent-to-Agent 和人-to-Agent 社交-交互路径。YakiHonne 可编程 Smart Widgets 提供轻量接口，嵌入社交与支付功能，让代理无缝协作、交易、治理。Agentic Mini Apps 则将这一潜力变为现实，覆盖从链上投票到咖啡支付的场景。在这篇文章我们将探讨 YakiHonne 可编程Smart widgets如何赋能 DA(gentic)O，激活去中心化生产力与代理驱动的协作经济。

1.从 DAO 到 DA(gentic)O：协作的新范式

传统组织依赖中心化管理，效率受限；DAO 通过区块链实现去中心化治理，但投票延迟和静态合约限制生产力。Agentic AI 开启协作新纪元，超越AI的被动执行，具备自主推理、动态适应的能力，宛如数字世界的“智能公民”。通过大语言模型、高级算法与外部工具（如链上数据、Web API、物联网传感器）融合，Agentic AI 实时感知信息、优化决策、持续进化，促使了 DA(gentic)O）的崛起。

DA(gentic)O 是由多个 AI 代理通过开放协议（如 Agent-to-Agent 协作协议、区块链、智能合约）组成的动态生态，优化去中心化自治组织（DAO）并推动其演化。不同于传统组织的中央指挥或 DAO 的投票瓶颈，DA(gentic)O 通过智能网络实现目标。例如，一个代理监测 BTC市场波动，另一个协调网络社会活动，二者通过协议协作，驱动链上交易到现实优化的成果。这种组织以生产力为核心，跨越 Web3治理、网络社会经济、物理社会运营，展现去中心化的灵活性与规模化潜力。DA(gentic)O 不仅是协作的工具，更是连接虚拟与现实的“生产力桥梁”，为全球分布式社区创造可验证的价值。

DA(gentic)O 的核心特点可概括为以下三点：

D：分布式 (Distributed) & 去中心化 (Decentralized) 决策与运作分布于多个自主代理，无需单一控制点，确保组织的鲁棒性与透明性。代理通过链上记录或分布式协议协商资源分配，形成一个无需信任中介的协作网络。例如，在 BTC 市场，代理共同管理资金流向；在网络社会，代理分布式投票决定社区规则；在物理社会，代理协调跨区域的物流调度。这种分布式架构赋予 DA(gentic)O 高度的抗干扰能力与扩展性。

A：自主 (Autonomous) 和智能 (Agentic) 代理具备独立感知、规划与执行的能力，组织通过智能协商实现自治。每个代理如同微型决策单元，能根据环境变化调整策略，无需人类频繁干预。例如，在网络社会的元宇宙，一个代理设计虚拟展览，另一个动态分配算力，二者通过协议自动协调；在物理社会的智能工厂，代理实时优化生产参数，响应市场需求。这种自主性使 DA(gentic)O 能够快速适应复杂场景，超越传统组织的反应速度。

O：组织 (Organization) 和运营 (Operation) 代理以组织化方式协同，形成高效的协作网络，完成从虚拟经济到现实生产的任务。无论是 Web3 的链上拍卖、网络社会的虚拟市场，还是物理社会的供应链整合，DA(gentic)O 都以协作驱动成果。例如，一个代理协调创作者与买家的交易，另一个优化物流配送，二者共同实现端到端的价值流转。这种运营能力使 DA(gentic)O 成为生产力的“协作枢纽”。

DA(gentic)O的灵活性源于Agentic AI的多样能力。反应型代理擅长实时响应，如监控链上交易波动；目标导向代理分解复杂任务，如规划虚拟社区的经济激励；学习型代理通过数据迭代优化，如调整智能工厂的生产参数。这些代理通过A2A协议形成协作网络，适配从虚拟治理、交易到现实优化的广泛需求，构建生产力驱动的“数字生态”。

DA(gentic)O 的主要支柱要素

构建高效的 DA(gentic)O 需以下关键支撑，确保代理网络的运行与协作：

• 主权钱包：每个代理拥有独立匿名数字钱包，安全管理资产并执行交易，支持链上支付、网络社会的虚拟奖励或物理社会的任务报酬，保障经济交互的自主性。
• 去中心化安全环境：可靠的链上或分布式系统，保护代理运行、数据隐私与决策完整性，防范外部攻击或内部篡改，确保协作的信任基础。
• 自由访问网络与链：代理需无缝访问互联网、区块链或其他数据源，获取实时信息与资源，如链上数据、网络社会的用户行为或物理社会的传感器输入，支持推理与协作。
• 接口：用户友好的且自主接口（如链上仪表盘、移动端面板），确保代理与用户、系统间的顺畅连接。

DA(gentic)O 以智能网络连接虚拟与现实，创造交易、协调和优化的价值。Agentic Mini Apps 是其关键交互工具。

4. 结论

随着 Agentic AI 和去中心化技术的快速融合，DA(gentic)O 不再是理论构想，而是正在形成的“智能协作网络”。YakiHonne 的 Smart Widgets 和 Agentic Mini Apps，正在为这种网络提供关键接口与交互基础设施，为用户和开发者释放出前所未有的创作力、支付能力与治理可能。 我们正在见证三个关键趋势的叠加：

1） 从单体代理到多代理协作系统

未来的组织形态将不再是人类为中心的链上治理，而是以多智能体（Multi-Agent）为核心的动态生态。每一个智能代理代表一个用户、一个群体、一个经济单位，能独立感知、推理、执行，与其他代理协同完成更复杂的生产与治理流程。YakiHonne Smart Widgets 将成为这些代理的“协作面板”，为其提供微型入口与交互协议。

2）从社交互动到社交经济系统

当前的社交平台仍多以信息交换为主，而未来的去中心化社交网络将嵌入支付、投票、任务、协作等“社会操作系统”，形成真正的“社交经济”。在这个体系中，Mini Apps 不再是内容附属，而是核心交互单元。YakiHonne 的 Widget 设计天然服务于此场景：它让每一次社交行为都可能触发价值流转，从一次转账、一次众筹、一次治理投票，到一个内容生成任务。

3） 从平台生态到分布式开发生态

社交支付的未来，属于可编程的生态，而非封闭的平台。随着 Smart Widgets SDK 的开源，越来越多的开发者将加入 Agentic Mini App 的构建中。未来的 Web3 应用不会是一个个巨型 App，而是一组协同工作的 Widget 网络，它们在用户的社交流中被发现、被使用、被组合。YakiHonne 正在成为这一生态的起点。

YakiHonne的愿景不仅是打造一个功能强大的去中心化社交支付平台，更是构建一个通向未来的“Agentic 社交操作系统”。在这个系统中，每一个人、每一个代理、每一个交互都是协作的触发器，智能的入口，价值的节点。

Distributed Agentic Organizations (DA(gentic)O) are reshaping the future of collaboration, blending Agentic AI to bridge crypto communities, virtual societies, and the real world. To scale effectively, DA(gentic)O needs seamless Agent-to-Agent and human-to-Agent social pathways. YakiHonne’s programmable Smart Widgets deliver lightweight interfaces, embedding social and payment features to enable agents to collaborate, transact, and govern effortlessly. Agentic Mini Apps turn this vision into reality, powering scenarios from on-chain voting to buying coffee. In this article, we’ll explore how YakiHonne Smart Widgets empower DA(gentic)O, unlocking decentralized productivity and an agent-driven collaborative economy.

1.From DAO to DA(gentic)O: A New Paradigm for Collaboration

Traditional organizations rely on centralized management, often hitting efficiency bottlenecks. DAOs introduced decentralized governance via blockchain, but slow voting and rigid contracts limit their potential. Agentic AI marks a new era, moving beyond passive execution to autonomous reasoning and dynamic adaptation—like “digital citizens” in a virtual world. By integrating large language models, advanced algorithms, and external tools (like on-chain data, Web APIs, or IoT sensors), Agentic AI processes real-time information, optimizes decisions, and evolves continuously, fueling the rise of DA(gentic)O.

DA(gentic)O are dynamic ecosystems of AI agents connected through open protocols—like Agent-to-Agent collaboration frameworks, blockchain, or smart contracts—enhancing and evolving decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs). Unlike centralized command structures or DAOs bottlenecked by voting, DA(gentic)O operate as intelligent networks to achieve goals. Picture one agent monitoring BTC market swings while another orchestrates virtual community events—together, they collaborate via protocols to drive outcomes from on-chain trades to real-world optimizations. These organizations prioritize productivity, spanning governance, virtual economies, and physical operations, showcasing the flexibility and scalability of decentralization. DA(gentic)O aren’t just tools for collaboration; they’re bridges linking virtual and physical realms, creating verifiable value for global distributed communities.

DA(gentic)O’s core traits boil down to three pillars:

D: Distributed & Decentralized Decisions and operations spread across autonomous agents, eliminating single points of control for robust, transparent systems. Agents negotiate resources via on-chain records or distributed protocols, forming trustless collaboration networks. For example, in BTC markets, agents collectively manage fund flows; in virtual communities, they vote to set rules; in the physical world, they coordinate cross-regional logistics. This distributed architecture gives DA(gentic)O unmatched resilience and scalability.

A: Autonomous & Agentic Agents independently sense, plan, and act, enabling organizations to self-govern through intelligent coordination. Each agent acts like a micro-decision unit, adapting strategies to changing conditions without constant human oversight. In a metaverse, one agent curates a virtual exhibition while another allocates computing power, syncing automatically via protocols. In smart factories, agents tweak production in real time to meet demand. This autonomy lets DA(gentic)O outpace traditional organizations in complex, fast-moving scenarios.

O: Organization & Operation Agents work as a cohesive network, tackling tasks from virtual economies to real-world production. Whether it’s an on-chain auction in Web3, a virtual marketplace, or a physical supply chain, DA(gentic)O deliver results through collaboration. One agent might handle creator-buyer transactions while another optimizes logistics, together streamlining value from end to end. This operational prowess makes DA(gentic)O a hub for productivity.

DA(gentic)O’s flexibility stems from Agentic AI’s diverse capabilities. Reactive agents excel at real-time responses, like tracking on-chain price shifts. Goal-driven agents break down complex tasks, such as designing virtual community incentives. Learning agents refine strategies through data, like optimizing factory outputs. United via A2A protocols, these agents form networks tailored to virtual governance, transactions, and real-world optimization, building a productivity-driven digital ecosystem.

Key Pillars of DA(gentic)O

To build effective DA(gentic)O, several components ensure the agent network thrives:

• Sovereign Wallets: Each agent holds an independent, anonymous digital wallet, securely managing assets and executing transactions—whether for on-chain payments, virtual rewards, or real-world task payouts—ensuring economic autonomy.
• Decentralized Security: Robust on-chain or distributed systems safeguard agent operations, data privacy, and decision integrity, protecting against attacks or tampering to maintain trust.
• Open Network Access: Agents need seamless access to the internet, blockchains, or other data sources for real-time insights, like on-chain metrics, user behaviors, or IoT sensor data, fueling reasoning and collaboration.
• Interfaces: User-friendly, autonomous interfaces (like on-chain dashboards or mobile panels) enable smooth connections between agents, users, and systems.

DA(gentic)O weave intelligent networks across virtual and physical domains, delivering value through transactions, coordination, and optimization. Agentic Mini Apps are the key to unlocking these interactions.

2. Programmable Smart Widgets: The Backbone of DA(gentic)O

YakiHonne’s programmable Smart Widgets are a lightweight system powering Agentic Mini Apps with social and payment features, serving as the infrastructure for DA(gentic)O. Through embedded interfaces and decentralized protocols, they drive agent collaboration, transactions, and governance, lowering development barriers and connecting Web3, virtual communities, and real-world scenarios.

2.1 Features of Smart Widgets

In YakiHonne’s design, Smart Widgets are compact, intelligent interfaces tailored for the rapid development and deployment of Agentic Mini Apps. Their core features include:

• Composability: Widgets support flexible combinations of functional modules, adapting to diverse Agent-to-Agent collaboration needs.
• Built-in Payments: With on-chain payment and stablecoin support, they enable seamless value exchange between agents.

This framework dramatically lowers the barrier to building and scaling decentralized agent organizations, empowering individual agents to not only act but also collaborate, transact, and govern together.

2.2 Forms and Applications of Smart Widgets

YakiHonne Smart Widgets come in three forms to meet varied needs, from everyday users to advanced developers, powering a full spectrum of DA(gentic)O demands:

• Basic Widgets: No coding required—users can quickly build payment or voting functions using a template editor, ideal for simple Mini Apps.
• Action Widgets: These link external features while keeping social interfaces seamless, expanding Mini Apps’ interaction scope.
• Tool Widgets: Designed for developers and power users, these leverage the Mini App SDK for complex applications, supporting data queries, on-chain tasks, instant payments, and smart decisions to create advanced, intelligent Mini Apps.

These forms provide Mini Apps with everything from basic interactions to sophisticated collaboration, aligning with DA(gentic)O’s automated workflows.

2.3 Core Capabilities for DA(gentic)O

YakiHonne Smart Widgets deliver key capabilities to fuel the efficient operation of Distributed Agentic Organizations through Agentic Mini Apps:

• Autonomous Mini Apps: Widgets embed service logic, letting agents independently handle tasks or trigger payments—like auto-distributing Web3 transaction rewards or coordinating virtual community events without human input.
• On-the-Fly Payments: Seamless protocols for stablecoins, BTC, or Lightning Network (LN) enable instant on-chain payments, supporting micro-transaction economies.
• On-Chain Identity Integration: Agents can tie sovereign identities to platforms like Nostr, authorizing and signing on-chain actions.
• Real-Time Interaction and Coordination: Widgets facilitate instant data sharing, smart contract calls, and collaborative execution, tailored for Agent-to-Agent networks.
• Openness and Composability: Developers can freely create and combine Widgets, expanding the modular Mini App ecosystem.

These features make Smart Widgets the “backbone” of DA(gentic)O, linking individual agents to collaborative networks and fostering dynamic, scalable ecosystems.

2.4 Fueling the Agentic Economy

In DA(gentic)O, economic interactions are critical. Smart Widgets drive the agentic economy by:

• Lowering Payment Barriers: Embedded payments enable frictionless micro-transactions between agents, streamlining value flow.
• Micro-Autonomous Markets: Widgets give Mini Apps independent pricing and operation capabilities, creating self-sustaining economic units.
• Accelerating Innovation: Open creation and low-cost deployment encourage developers to enrich the Mini App ecosystem.

YakiHonne is pioneering a new model: social interactions double as payments, and apps run autonomously. This lays the groundwork for future Agentic DAOs and agent-driven socio-economic systems.

3. Agentic Mini App Use Cases

Agentic Mini Apps are the interactive layer of DA(gentic)O, powered by YakiHonne Smart Widgets to embed social and payment features, enabling seamless user engagement in governance, content creation, incentives, and consumption. This chapter dives into three key scenarios—autonomous governance, social media, and consumption ecosystems—showing how DA(gentic)O build dynamic networks from Web3 to the real world.

3.1 Autonomous Governance: Agentic AI for DAOs

Traditional DAOs leverage blockchain for transparent governance, aiming to replace centralized control with community voting and smart contracts. But delays, disputes, and static contracts hinder value delivery—investment DAOs lag behind professional firms, and protocol DAOs struggle with productivity. Agentic AI, the “smart core” of DA(gentic)O, automates proposals, optimizes resource allocation, and boosts on-chain efficiency, bridging Web3 with real-world productivity. Here’s how it works:

• Intelligent Autonomous Voting and Governance Optimization

Traditional aMaci-based anonymous voting is complex and limits scale. This aMaci-powered Mini App simplifies governance logic with user-friendly interfaces. Users get proposal alerts via DMs or notifications (e.g., “Adjust protocol parameters?”) and vote with one tap. The Mini App analyzes on-chain data (like past voting trends) to suggest decisions, tallies results in seconds, and auto-executes proposals. - Incentive Allocation and Contribution Tracking

Users check contributions (e.g., code commits, completed tasks) in the Mini App. Agentic AI evaluates on-chain and off-chain activity, auto-paying rewards in stablecoins, LN, or BTC—instantly. DMs notify reward status. Users showcase contributions via posts, and the Mini App tracks activity, distributing tokens or NFTs, logged on-chain with DM confirmations. - DAO-to-DAO Collaboration

Users share data (e.g., BTC trends) in the Mini App, where Agentic AI suggests collaborations (e.g., “joint campaign”). It auto-executes cross-DAO tasks like fund pool allocation, with posts promoting updates. Users can also propose joint initiatives via DMs, and the Mini App aggregates multi-party data, paying stablecoins, LN, or BTC for execution, all transparent on-chain. - Community Events and Crowdfunding

Users donate to events (e.g., “DAO summit”) via the Mini App, paying stablecoins, LN, or BTC—instantly. Agentic AI tracks progress, auto-allocates funds, and posts share results. Users sign up for events via DMs, earning NFT rewards through Mini App payments, recorded on-chain. - Resource and Task Allocation

Users pick tasks (e.g., “build a module”) in the Mini App. Agentic AI matches skills, paying stablecoins, LN, or BTC rewards—instantly. DMs update task status. Users claim tasks via posts, and the Mini App verifies outcomes, auto-paying tokens, logged on-chain with DM confirmations. - On-Chain Identity and Authentication

Users link on-chain and Nostr identities in the Mini App. Agentic AI verifies permissions, enabling cross-DAO recognition, with stablecoin, LN, or BTC payments to activate identities. Users request event access, and the Mini App auto-grants permissions, transparent on-chain. - Real-Time Sentiment Analysis

Users view sentiment reports (e.g., “token buzz up 30%”) in the Mini App. Agentic AI analyzes on-chain and social data, offering investment tips for a 2 USDC reward—instantly. Reports are sent via DMs.

3.2 Social Media

Centralized social platforms curb free expression with algorithmic bias, content censorship, and data misuse. Creators lose earnings to hefty fees, and authenticity and privacy are at risk. Agentic AI powers a smarter, decentralized social ecosystem, ensuring user sovereignty and building open networks from Web3 to the real world. Key scenarios include: - Content Creation and Distribution

Users team up with Agentic AI to craft content (videos, articles, posters), publishing to YakiHonne and beyond with one click. The Mini App analyzes user interests for targeted delivery, with stablecoin, LN, or BTC payments to unlock full content. - AI Journalism: Reporting and Interviews

Users automate news gathering via the Mini App, pulling on-chain data and social posts to create in-depth reports, shareable for tip-based payments. For interviews (e.g., BUIDL projects), users DM requests, and Agentic AI drafts outlines, with the Mini App converting videos to articles or clips for YakiHonne and other platforms. - Content Interaction

Users engage in discussions via YakiHonne posts. The Mini App tracks comment quality, auto-rewarding active participants with tips. - Content Subscriptions

Users pay for premium articles or exclusive posts through the Mini App, which manages access—instantly. - Content Authenticity Verification

Users verify content credibility (e.g., news sources) via the Mini App, flagging trustworthiness and voting to support authentic posts. - Content Archiving and Collaboration

Users upload posts or articles to the Mini App, stored on decentralized networks with permanent links for paid downloads. For collaborative articles, Agentic AI tracks contributions, auto-paying stablecoin, LN, or BTC rewards. - Decentralized Ads and Revenue

Creators pay to promote articles or content via the Mini App, with readers earning directly from ad revenue. - Sentiment Analysis and Public Discourse

Agentic AI monitors YakiHonne posts and social trends (e.g., “topic buzz up 30%”), suggesting discussions. Users receive detailed reports via DMs for a payment.

3.3 Consumption Ecosystem

Centralized payments and traditional consumption suffer from high fees, slow settlements, and clunky processes, while DeFi apps face steep learning curves and trust issues. Agentic AI, through Mini Apps, builds a decentralized social payment and consumption ecosystem, expanding on-chain and real-world use cases to create a Web3 value network. Scenarios include:

• Peer-to-Peer Transfers

Users search friends in the Mini App to send 0.05 USDC. Agentic AI optimizes exchange rates and swap paths, settling instantly with on-chain records. DMs flag transfer requests. For group splits, users initiate in the Mini App, and Agentic AI calculates shares, paying stablecoins, LN, or BTC—instantly, with posts logging details. - DeFi Staking Incentives

Users join staking pools via the Mini App, where Agentic AI suggests high-yield strategies, paying stablecoins, LN, or BTC—instantly, with transparent on-chain dividends. DMs notify profits. Users stake assets, and Agentic AI rewards active users with 0.1 USDC, paid instantly, with posts sharing strategies. - Offline Purchases

Users pay BTC or LN for coffee or goods via the Mini App—instantly, logged on-chain. Posts promote nearby deals. For bookings (e.g., restaurant seats), users pay stablecoins, LN, or BTC, earning token cashback—instantly, with posts sharing events. - GameFi

Users pay 1 USDC for overseas goods via the Mini App—instantly, with on-chain logistics tracking. DMs update orders. For group buys, Agentic AI optimizes discounts, splitting stablecoin, LN, or BTC shipping costs—instantly, with posts tracking progress.

4. Conclusion

As Agentic AI and decentralized technologies converge rapidly, DA(gentic)O are no longer theoretical—they’re emerging as “intelligent collaboration networks.” YakiHonne’s Smart Widgets and Agentic Mini Apps provide the critical interfaces and infrastructure for these networks, unleashing unprecedented creativity, payment capabilities, and governance possibilities for users and developers alike. We’re witnessing the convergence of three transformative trends:

1) From Solo Agents to Multi-Agent Systems

The future of organizations isn’t human-centric on-chain governance but dynamic ecosystems driven by multi-agent systems. Each intelligent agent—representing a user, group, or economic unit—senses, reasons, and acts independently, collaborating with others to tackle complex production and governance tasks. YakiHonne Smart Widgets serve as the “collaboration dashboard” for these agents, offering micro-gateways and interaction protocols.

2) From Social Interaction to Social Economies

Today’s social platforms focus on information exchange, but tomorrow’s decentralized networks will embed payments, voting, tasks, and collaboration into a “social operating system,” forming true social economies. In this model, Mini Apps aren’t just content add-ons—they’re core interaction hubs. YakiHonne’s Widget design is built for this: every social action, from a transfer to a crowdfund, a governance vote to a content task, can spark value flow.

3) From Platform Ecosystems to Distributed Development

The future of social payments lies in programmable ecosystems, not walled gardens. With the open-source Smart Widgets SDK, more developers will join the Agentic Mini App movement. Apps won’t be monolithic giants but networks of interoperable Widgets, discovered, used, and combined within users’ social flows. YakiHonne is laying the foundation for this ecosystem.

YakiHonne’s vision goes beyond a powerful decentralized social payment platform—it’s about building an “Agentic Social Operating System” for the future. In this system, every person, every agent, every interaction is a trigger for collaboration, an entry point for intelligence, and a node for value creation.

In business, investing, and personal goals, it’s easy to obsess over outcomes: - How many sales did I make? - How high is my stock price? - How much money did I earn this month?

But if you focus too much on outputs, you risk chasing results without improving the process that actually creates success.

The best leaders — like Jeff Bezos — follow a simple but powerful principle:

Focus daily on controllable inputs. The outputs will follow naturally over time.

Let’s break down what this means, why it works, and how you can apply it to build long-term success.

---

🧠 What Does "Focus on Inputs" Mean?

Inputs = Actions you control directly: - Customer service quality - Product development speed - Operational efficiency - Attention to detail in execution

Outputs = Results you want but can’t control directly: - Revenue - Profits - Stock price - Market share

Key idea:
👉 When you relentlessly improve the inputs, you set the stage for outstanding outputs over time.

---

🚀 How Jeff Bezos Used Input Focus to Build Amazon

At Amazon, Bezos hardwired this mindset into the company:

• Teams weren’t told to "increase revenue."
• They were told to improve customer satisfaction, reduce delivery times, and expand product selection.
• Amazon focused on input metrics like:
• Time from customer click to shipment
• Product availability rates
• Number of customer complaints

By perfecting these controllable actions every day, sales and stock price naturally exploded over time.

💬 As Bezos put it:

"We can’t guarantee the stock price will go up, but we can guarantee that customers will love us if we execute on the right inputs."

---

📈 Why Focusing on Inputs Wins Over Time

✅ Inputs are under your direct control.
You can’t control customer behavior or market swings — but you can control how you perform daily tasks.

✅ Good inputs compound over time.
Small daily improvements (like better service or faster shipping) build massive trust and long-term loyalty.

✅ Outputs are lagging indicators.
If you chase outputs alone, you’re reacting to the past. Input focus keeps you proactive.

✅ Stress and emotional swings decrease.
Instead of riding the highs and lows of every result, you stay calm and centered on today’s actions.

🛠 How to Apply "Input Focus" in Your Own Work

✅ 1. Define Your Key Inputs

Ask yourself:

"What daily actions, if consistently improved, would lead to my goals?"

Examples: - Salesperson: Focus on number of quality client calls, not sales closed. - Writer: Focus on daily word count, not bestseller lists. - Startup founder: Focus on product iterations, not initial user growth.

---

✅ 2. Track Inputs, Not Just Outputs

Build habits around measuring what you control:

"Did I deliver 5 demos today?" "Did I ship a new feature this week?" "Did I respond to every customer ticket within 2 hours?"

---

✅ 3. Trust the Process

Results don’t show up instantly.
Stay consistent.
Refine your inputs.
Good outputs are a lagging reward for great daily actions.

---

📣 Final Thought

Outputs are loud.
They grab headlines.
They create FOMO.

But inputs are where real power lies.

"Be obsessed with the process, and the results will take care of themselves."

Follow the principle that helped Amazon become a trillion-dollar company:

🎯 Control your inputs. Trust the compounding. Let success chase you. 🚀

@ 95cb4330:96db706c

If there’s one strategy that quietly fuels the success of icons like Sam Altman, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk, it’s not a secret growth hack or a flashy new tool.
It’s something deceptively simple—and profoundly powerful:

They learn. Constantly. Relentlessly. Deeply.

This is the essence of Compound Learning—the idea that knowledge, like money, compounds over time.
The more you invest in learning, the faster your decisions, the sharper your thinking, and the bigger your edge becomes.

---

🧠 What Is Compound Learning?

Compound learning means consistently building deep knowledge over time—not just collecting facts or skimming headlines.
It’s about:

• Understanding principles
• Asking hard questions
• Applying what you learn across everything you do

It works just like compound interest:

• Learn a little every day
• Connect ideas across time
• Make smarter choices
• Smarter choices lead to even more learning opportunities

The longer you do it, the more valuable and self-reinforcing it becomes.

---

🚀 Examples in Action

📘 Sam Altman – Learning Is His Edge

Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, says:

"The best founders are learning machines."

He reads obsessively, writes to clarify his thinking, and debates ideas constantly with people smarter than him.
By compounding knowledge across AI, startups, economics, and human behavior, he positions himself to spot opportunities before others even see the pattern forming.

---

📚 Jeff Bezos – Reading as a Competitive Advantage

At Amazon, Bezos famously starts meetings in silence—reading internal memos.
Why? Because deep thinking requires deep attention.

He believes:

• Clear writing = Clear thinking
• Deep reading = Better decision-making

His broad reading habits—from science fiction to business reports—gave him a mental model toolkit that shaped Amazon’s long-term success.

---

🚀 Elon Musk – Learning Across Disciplines

Elon Musk didn’t attend rocket science school. He:

• Read propulsion textbooks
• Asked engineers endless questions
• Cross-applied knowledge from physics, coding, and manufacturing

Result:
He built SpaceX through self-driven, compounded learning, not formal credentials.

---

🧭 How to Practice Compound Learning

✅ 1. Choose Depth Over Noise

Don’t chase surface-level content.
Go deep.

• Read whole books
• Revisit difficult concepts
• Study timeless principles

---

✅ 2. Connect What You Learn

Link ideas across fields:

• How does biology teach you about systems?
• What does history reveal about strategy?
• How does physics influence product thinking?

The richest insights live between disciplines.

---

✅ 3. Reflect and Apply

Learning compounds when you use it.

• Journal what you’re learning
• Teach it to someone else
• Apply it immediately in your work or decisions

---

✅ 4. Make It a Daily Habit

Even 30 minutes a day turns into:

• 3.5 hours/week
• 182 hours/year
• Thousands of hours over a career

That’s a competitive moat no one can take away.

One of the most important habits shared by top entrepreneurs like Elon Musk, Sam Altman, and Jeff Bezos is this simple but powerful principle:

Move fast first. Build the system later.

In the early stages of any idea, project, or product, speed of iteration matters far more than polish or perfection. Once you find out what works, then you can systematize and scale.

Let’s break down why this matters—and how you can apply it today.

---

Why Iterating Fast Beats Overplanning

When you’re trying something new, it’s easy to get trapped in:

• Endless research
• Overthinking
• Waiting for a "perfect" launch

The problem is:

No plan survives first contact with reality.

You don’t know exactly how users, customers, or the market will react. You need real feedback, not guesses.

Fast iteration means:

• Testing assumptions quickly
• Gathering real-world data
• Learning what actually works (and what doesn’t)

Systematization comes after you discover something that works—not before.

---

Examples in Action

🚀 Elon Musk – SpaceX’s Rapid Prototyping

At SpaceX, Musk doesn’t spend years perfecting a rocket on paper. Instead:

• He builds early prototypes, even if they’re rough.
• He tests them quickly—even if they crash.
• He learns from each failure and improves at lightning speed.

Result: SpaceX cut rocket development time dramatically compared to traditional aerospace companies.

---

🚀 Sam Altman – Startups Move Fast, Then Formalize

Sam Altman teaches startup founders:

"Ship first. Learn fast. Build processes later."

At OpenAI and Y Combinator, the focus was:

• Build basic products quickly.
• Test them with users.
• Only after finding product-market fit, build durable systems.

Speed wins early. Systems win later.

---

🚀 Jeff Bezos – "Disagree and Commit" for Speed

At Amazon, Bezos promotes the idea of "disagree and commit":

• Make decisions quickly, even with incomplete information.
• Move forward fast, knowing you can adjust if needed.
• Avoid the paralysis of endless debate.

Quick action + flexible course-correction beats slow perfection.

---

How to Apply "Iterate Fast, Then Systematize"

✅ Step 1: Identify an Area You’re Overthinking

Ask yourself:

"Where am I stuck planning instead of acting?"

It could be launching a new product, testing a marketing idea, starting a project—anything.

---

✅ Step 2: Run a Fast, Small Test

Don’t wait weeks.

• Build a minimum viable version.
• Ship it to a small audience.
• Gather feedback immediately.

---

✅ Step 3: Refine Based on Reality

• Use feedback to improve.
• Drop what doesn’t work.
• Double down on what shows promise.

Keep iterating fast until you find something that clicks.

---

✅ Step 4: Systematize After Success

Only after you know what’s working:

• Automate it.
• Build repeatable processes.
• Scale it efficiently.

Don’t waste time scaling something before it’s proven.

---

วันก่อนเฮียไปเดินห้าง เดินไปเจอชั้นขายน้ำมันพืช มีน้ำมันรำข้าววางโชว์อยู่หน้าสุด พร้อมคำโปรยที่ดูแพงกว่าขวดซะอีก ตัวเลขข่มกันมาเข้มๆเลย ระดับหมื่นๆหน่วยทั้งนั้น “มีแกมมาออไรซานอล ลดคอเลสเตอรอล” “มีวิตามินอีสูง” “ทนความร้อนได้ดีเยี่ยม เหมาะกับทุกเมนูทอด” “น้ำมันสุขภาพ คนรักหัวใจควรมีไว้ประจำบ้าน”

เฮียยืนอ่านแล้วก็ได้แต่ยิ้ม…

ว่าด้วย Oryzanol ...ของดีจริงเหรอ? อันนี้เป็นไม้เด็ดของฝั่งที่เชียร์น้ำมันรำข้าวเลยเฮีย เขาบอกว่า แกมมาโอริซานอล (γ-Oryzanol) เนี่ย เป็นสารต้านอนุมูลอิสระที่ช่วยลดคอเลสเตอรอลในเลือด ฟังแล้วรู้สึกเหมือนกินแล้วหลอดเลือดจะสะอาดเหมือนพื้นห้องน้ำที่เพิ่งขัดเสร็จ แต่...อย่าเพิ่งรีบวางใจ เพราะงานวิจัยที่ว่าแกมมาโอริซานอล ลดคอเลสเตอรอลเนี่ย ส่วนใหญ่ใช้ “สารสกัดเข้มข้น” ในขนาดโดสระดับ 300-600 มิลลิกรัมต่อวัน ย้ำนะว่า สารสกัดเข้มข้น

ทีนี้เรามาดูกันไหมว่าที่ฉลากบอกว่ามี โอริซานอล 12,000 ppm ที่ดูเยอะแยะมากมายจนเราว๊าววววววกันนั้น ppm มันคืออะไรวะ? ppm (parts per million) แปลว่า “ส่วนในล้านส่วน” ในกรณีของของเหลวอย่างน้ำมัน 1 ppm = 1 มิลลิกรัม ต่อ 1 ลิตร ดังนั้น 12,000 ppm = 12,000 mg/ลิตร หรือก็คือ 12 กรัม ต่อน้ำมัน 1 ลิตร ถ้าเรากินน้ำมันแค่ “1 ช้อนโต๊ะ” (ประมาณ 15 มล.) ที่มี γ-Oryzanol 12,000 ppm จะมี γ-Oryzanol ประมาณ 180 mg สิ่งที่ร่างกายได้รับระหว่างที่ผสมในน้ำมัน กับ "สารสกัดเข้มข้น" ในการทดลอง มันคนละบริบทกัน แต่เอามาเคลมกัน???

ซึ่งเฮียบอกเลยว่า…เวลาเขาเคลมข้อดีมักจะดึงมาเป็นข้อๆ แต่ร่างกายมันเป็นเรื่องโยงใยอีรันพันตู คือก่อนที่คอเลสเตอรอลจะลด ตับเรานี่แหละจะรับไม่ไหวก่อน เพราะน้ำมันรำข้าวเป็นไขมันชนิดไม่อิ่มตัวหลายตำแหน่ง (PUFA) สูง ซึ่งถ้ารับเข้าไปในปริมาณมาก จะเพิ่มภาระให้ตับในการกำจัดสารอนุมูลอิสระและควบคุมสมดุลไขมันในเลือด ตับต้องทำงานหนักขึ้นเสมือนต้องล้างน้ำมันเครื่องเก่า ๆ ทุกวัน นานไปตับอาจเสื่อม ไม่สดใสเหมือนตอนกินไก่ต้มร้านประจำ

จริงอยู่ที่มีงานวิจัยบอกว่า γ‐oryzanol หรือที่เรียกกันว่า ออริซานอล เนี่ย สามารถช่วยลดการอมน้ำมันของอาหารทอดได้บ้าง โดยเปลี่ยนโครงสร้างของอาหารและสมบัติทางกายภาพของน้ำมัน ทำให้เฟรนช์ฟรายส์ที่ทอดออกมาน้ำมันเกาะน้อยลง เหมือนฟังดูดีใช่ไหมเฮีย?

แต่เฮียอยากชวนคิดอีกมุมว่า… ถ้าการจะทำให้อาหาร “ไม่อมน้ำมัน” ต้องอาศัยการ “เติมสารเคมี” เข้าไปเพื่อไปเปลี่ยนโครงสร้างของน้ำมัน แล้วนั่นยังเรียกว่า "ดีต่อสุขภาพ" ได้อยู่ไหม?

เพราะอย่าลืมว่า γ‐oryzanol ไม่ได้เป็นสารที่อยู่ในน้ำมันรำข้าวดิบ ๆ แบบธรรมชาติในปริมาณสูงพออยู่แล้ว ผู้ผลิตหลายเจ้าเลยต้อง เติมเพิ่มเข้าไปทีหลัง และการเติมสารเพิ่มในอุตสาหกรรมอาหารเนี่ย ไม่ได้มีฟรีนะ มันมีคำถามตามมาว่า เติมเท่าไหร่ถึงจะพอดี? เติมแบบนี้แล้วร่างกายดูดซึมได้แค่ไหน? สะสมในร่างกายไหม? และสุดท้าย... สารนี้จริง ๆ แล้ว “มีความจำเป็น” ต่อร่างกายหรือเปล่า?

เฮียบอกตรง ๆ ว่า ร่างกายคนเรา ไม่ได้ต้องการ γ‐oryzanol ในชีวิตประจำวันเลย มันไม่ใช่สารจำเป็นเหมือนวิตามิน หรือแร่ธาตุใด ๆ และก็ไม่มีหลักฐานชัดเจนในคนว่า การบริโภคต่อเนื่องในระยะยาวจะ ไม่มีผลข้างเคียง โดยเฉพาะเมื่อต้องโดนความร้อนสูง ๆ ซ้ำ ๆ ในการทอด แล้วอีกเรื่องที่ต้องไม่ลืมคือ…

น้ำมันรำข้าวเองเป็นน้ำมันที่มี กรดไขมันไม่อิ่มตัวสูงมาก โดยเฉพาะพวกโอเมก้า 6 ซึ่งถ้าเราโดนความร้อนสูงบ่อย ๆ อย่างการทอด มันจะเสื่อมสภาพเร็ว เกิดสารอนุมูลอิสระง่าย ซึ่งสารพวกนี้แหละที่เป็นต้นเหตุของการอักเสบเรื้อรังในร่างกาย ดังนั้นเวลาใครบอกว่า "โอเคนะ ใช้ได้ เพราะใส่สารช่วยป้องกันแล้ว" มันก็ควรถามกลับเหมือนกันว่า...แล้วทำไมเราไม่เริ่มจากใช้น้ำมันที่ทนความร้อนได้ดีตั้งแต่แรก???? มันก็เหมือนการแต่งหน้าซ่อนสิวโดยไม่รักษาสิวนั่นแหละ ดูดีขึ้นแค่ผิวเผิน แต่ต้นเหตุยังอยู่ครบ

เฮียอยากให้เพื่อน ๆ ฟังแล้วไม่ต้องรีบตัดสินใจอะไรทันที แค่ลองฟังอีกด้านไว้ แล้วค่อย ๆ คิด ว่าการกินอาหารเพื่อสุขภาพเนี่ย เราจะเลือกของที่ดูดีจากโฆษณา หรือของที่ “ร่างกายใช้ประโยชน์ได้จริง” โดยไม่ต้องพึ่งสารสังเคราะห์อะไรเลย

วิตามินอีสูง...แล้วไงต่อ? เค้าก็อ้างว่าน้ำมันรำข้าวมีวิตามินอีเยอะ เป็นสารต้านอนุมูลอิสระ จริงอยู่ วิตามินอีมีอยู่ในน้ำมันพืชหลายชนิด แต่เฮียขอเล่าให้ฟังแบบไม่อ้อมค้อมนะ…น้ำมันรำข้าวที่เราซื้อในท้องตลาด เขาเอารำข้าวไปผ่านกระบวนการ สกัดด้วยตัวทำละลายเฮกเซน (Hexane) ผ่านความร้อนสูงระดับ 200-270 องศาเซลเซียส แล้วก็ ฟอกกลิ่น ฟอกสี ให้มันดูใส ๆ น่ากิน

ปัญหาคือ…วิตามินอี กับสารต้านอนุมูลอิสระที่เขาว่า “มีสูง” มันพังไปกับความร้อนและกระบวนการผลิตตั้งแต่ช่วงแรก ๆ แล้ว เพราะวิตามินอีเป็นสารที่ไวต่ออุณหภูมิสูงมาก พอเจอความร้อนสูงแบบนั้น ก็กลายเป็นเหมือนซุปเปอร์ฮีโร่ที่หมดพลังกลางฉากแอ็กชัน

บางแบรนด์เลยต้องเติมวิตามินอีกลับเข้าไปทีหลัง ทั้งเพื่อ “เพิ่มคุณค่าทางโภชนาการ” ให้เอาไปโฆษณาได้ และ เพื่อช่วยป้องกันการเหม็นหืน ของน้ำมันที่ไวต่อปฏิกิริยาออกซิเดชัน เพราะน้ำมันรำข้าวที่อุดมไปด้วย PUFA จะเหม็นหืนเร็ว ถ้าไม่มีสารต้านอนุมูลอิสระไปจับ เรียกว่าเติมเพื่อให้ดูดีทั้งต่อสุขภาพและต่อกลิ่น (แม้สุขภาพอาจไม่ได้ดีจริง…)

ทนความร้อนได้ดี? เหมาะกับการทอด? อันนี้ต้องแซวแรงนิดนึง... เพราะเขาชอบโฆษณาว่า “เหมาะกับการทอดเพราะทนความร้อนได้ดี” บ้าบอ ในความจริง น้ำมันรำข้าวเป็น Polyunsaturated fat (PUFA) สูง แม้จะมีโมเลกุลอิ่มตัวบ้าง แต่ไม่มากพอจะสู้ความร้อนจริงจังได้ เวลาโดนทอดร้อน ๆ ไขมันเหล่านี้มัน กลายพันธุ์ เป็นไขมันออกซิไดซ์ ไม่ต้องไปบอกเลยว่าให้สลัดน้ำมัน กรรมมันเกิดไปแล้ว

น้ำมันรำข้าวคือน้ำมันพืชที่มี กรดไขมันไม่อิ่มตัวเชิงซ้อน (PUFA) สูง โดยเฉพาะ โอเมกา-6 (linoleic acid) ซึ่งถ้าเทียบให้เห็นภาพแบบเฮีย ๆ PUFA ก็คือคนขี้น้อยใจ โดนแดดนิด โดนไฟหน่อย ก็เป็นอารมณ์ บูดเสียง่าย คือไม่เหมาะจะโดนผัด โดนทอด เพราะมันจะกลายร่างเป็น อนุมูลอิสระ แล้ววิ่งวุ่นในร่างกายเราเหมือนคนเสียสติ

แล้วที่บอกว่าช่วยเรื่องหัวใจ? เรื่องนี้ก็น่าสนใจ เพราะเขาชอบพูดว่า “น้ำมันรำข้าวช่วยลดความเสี่ยงโรคหัวใจ” ซึ่งจริง ๆ มาจากแนวคิดเก่าว่า “ถ้าลดไขมันอิ่มตัว แล้วหันมากินไขมันไม่อิ่มตัวจากพืช จะช่วยลดคอเลสเตอรอล และหัวใจก็จะดีขึ้น”

ฟังดูเข้าท่าใช่ไหม...แต่รู้ไหมว่าทุกวันนี้ งานวิจัยใหม่ ๆ เริ่มพบว่า การลดไขมันอิ่มตัวไม่ได้ลดความเสี่ยงโรคหัวใจ อย่างที่เคยคิด และกลับกัน…ไขมันจากสัตว์ที่มาจากอาหารแท้ อย่างเนยแท้ น้ำมันหมู น้ำมันมะพร้าว กลับมีผลดีต่อสุขภาพหัวใจมากกว่า เพราะไม่สร้างการอักเสบในร่างกาย (พูดในมุม cooking oil นะ ถ้าสกัดเย็นพวก มะกอก มะพร้าว มะคาเดเมีย งา ฯลฯ นั่นเป็นเรื่องของสารพฤกษะและพลังงานประกอบ มันจะอีกศาสตร์นึง อย่าเพิ่งปนกันถ้ายังไม่ได้ลงลึก เพราะถ้าเอาสกัดเย็นมาโดนร้อนก็เจ๊งบ๊ง เคลียร์นะ)

ในขณะที่ไขมันไม่อิ่มตัวสูงอย่าง PUFA จากน้ำมันพืชกลับเพิ่มการอักเสบเรื้อรัง ซึ่งเป็นต้นตอของโรคหัวใจ เบาหวาน สมองเสื่อม และโรคเรื้อรังแทบทุกชนิด

แถมกับคำถามหลังไมค์ การที่จะบอกว่า "น้ำมันรำข้าวอมน้ำมันมากกว่าแต่กรดไขมันเขาดีกว่าน้ำมันปาล์มนะ" ฟังเผิน ๆ เหมือนเลือกความดีระยะยาวแลกกับความอ้วนระยะสั้น แต่เดี๋ยวก่อนเฮียอยากให้มองอีกด้าน... 1. กรดไขมันไม่อิ่มตัวที่ว่า “ดี” ในทางทฤษฎีนั้น ถ้าอยู่เฉย ๆ บนชั้นวาง ก็อาจจะดูดีอยู่หรอก แต่พอเจอไฟร้อน ๆ ตอนทอดหรือผัด สารพวกนี้เสื่อมสภาพง่ายมาก กลายเป็นสารออกซิไดซ์ที่ทำร้ายหลอดเลือดเราแบบไม่รู้ตัว กลายเป็น "ไขมันดีพัง ๆ" ได้ทันที 2. น้ำมันที่อมน้ำมันเยอะ หมายถึงอาหารเราจะดูดน้ำมันเข้าไปเยอะ ซึ่งเท่ากับเรากินเข้าไปเยอะโดยไม่รู้ตัว ปริมาณโอเมก้า 6 ก็พุ่งสูง แล้วพอระดับโอเมก้า 6 ในร่างกายสูงขึ้นมากเกินสมดุล มันจะกระตุ้นการอักเสบในร่างกาย = ต้นเหตุของสารพัดโรคยุคใหม่เลยนะ 3. สุดท้าย ถ้าเราต้องแลกกับการใช้น้ำมันที่ต้องพึ่ง "สารเติมแต่ง" อย่างโอริซานอล เพื่อให้อาหารไม่อมน้ำมันเกินไป แบบนี้ก็เหมือนซื้อของแพงแล้วต้องซื้อตัวช่วยเพิ่ม เพื่อให้มันใช้งานได้ดีขึ้น แบบนี้เรียกว่าดีจริงหรือเปล่า? เหมือนคนหน้าตาดีแต่ใช้เงินเก่ง... สุดท้ายเป็นหนี้เหมือนกัน

น้ำมันรำข้าวที่ผ่านกระบวนการมากมาย มันกลายเป็น “Fiat Food” ที่หน้าตาดูดี แต่คุณค่าข้างในเบาหวิว เหมือนแบงก์กระดาษที่พิมพ์ออกมาเยอะ แต่ไม่มีทองรองรับ

ที่สำคัญคือ มันไม่ใช่แค่เรื่อง "กินมากไปไม่ดี" หรอกนะ

บทความกูรูหลายเจ้าชอบสรุปว่า “อย่ากินเยอะ” กินแบบใส่เพื่อผัดอาหารน้อยๆ อืมมม คือพี่ครับ น้ำมันพืชมันไม่ได้เป็นแค่ขวดที่เราซื้อในซูเปอร์ แต่มันเป็น วัตถุดิบหลักของร้านอาหาร ผัดกระเพราเจ้าโปรด กล่องเบนโตะข้างออฟฟิศ ขนมทอดกรอบทุกซอง แถมยังถูกแปะฉลากคำว่า “ดีต่อสุขภาพ” เพื่อให้เรารู้สึกผิดน้อยลงตอนกินของทอดอีกต่างหาก แถมเวลาเราทำกินเอง บางอย่างมันใส่มากกว่า 1ช้อนโต๊ะ ตามหน่วยบริโภคนะ แถม แต่ปัญหาใหญ่คือ PUFA จากน้ำมันพืชเหล่านี้ สะสมในเนื้อเยื่อไขมันเราแบบยาวนาน ไม่ได้หายไปง่าย ๆ แบบอกไก่ต้มหลังออกกำลังกาย ถึงจะกินแค่การผัดกับข้าวจานละ 1ช้อนก็เหอะ วันนั้นกินกับข้าวกี่กระทะ???

มันแทรกตัวเข้าไปในเยื่อหุ้มเซลล์ และกลายเป็น ตัวจุดไฟอักเสบเรื้อรังในร่างกาย เบาหวาน ความดัน มะเร็ง ไขมันพอกตับ อาจไม่ได้มาพร้อมสายฟ้า แต่ค่อย ๆ สะสมทีละหยดเหมือนน้ำมันในกระทะ

อย่าให้คำว่า “มีสารต้านอนุมูลอิสระ” มาหลอกเรา เพราะสุดท้าย ถ้าโครงสร้างไขมันมัน ไม่เสถียรตั้งแต่ต้น ต่อให้มีวิตามิน E ติดมานิด ๆ หน่อย ๆ มันก็เหมือนใส่หมวกกันน็อกให้ตุ๊กตา แล้วเอาไปนั่งมอเตอร์ไซค์วิบาก

น้ำมันรำข้าวไม่ใช่ปีศาจ แต่ก็ไม่ใช่นางฟ้า และเมื่อมันเป็นน้ำมันที่ร่างกายเราไม่ได้ออกแบบมาเพื่อรองรับมัน ก็อย่าหลงกลคำโฆษณาว่า "ดีต่อหัวใจ" หรือ “มีสารต้านอนุมูลอิสระ” แล้วเทมันใส่กระทะทุกวันเลยนะ

ก็เข้าใจแหละว่าเวลาคนทำอาหารเองที่บ้าน เขาจะรู้สึกว่า “ทอดเอง คุมได้ ทอดแค่รอบเดียว ไม่ได้ใช้ซ้ำ ไม่เป็นไรหรอก” แล้วก็หยิบ น้ำมันรำข้าว มาด้วยเหตุผลว่า “โปรไฟล์กรดไขมันมันดีกว่าน้ำมันปาล์ม” …ฟังดูเหมือนมีเหตุมีผล แต่เฮียอยากให้ลองมองอีกมุมนะ

น้ำมันรำข้าวมีกรดไขมันไม่อิ่มตัวสูงก็จริง แต่นั่นแหละคือปัญหา เพราะความไม่อิ่มตัวทำให้ ไม่เสถียรต่อความร้อน โดยธรรมชาติ! ถึงจะทอดรอบเดียว พอน้ำมันเจอไฟแรง ๆ มันก็ยังเสื่อมสภาพอยู่ดี เกิดสารอนุมูลอิสระที่มองไม่เห็น แต่ร่างกายเราเห็นหมด แล้วถ้าคนในบ้านกินบ่อย ๆ วันเว้นวัน จะรู้ตัวอีกทีก็อาจจะมีอาการอักเสบเรื้อรังโดยไม่รู้ต้นตอเลยก็ได้

ส่วนที่บอกว่าอาหารอมน้ำมันก็ไม่เป็นไร แค่รอหายร้อนแล้วซับออก หรือเอาเข้าหม้อลมร้อน มันช่วยได้ “บางส่วน” จริง แต่ไม่ได้แก้ที่ต้นเหตุ เพราะไขมันที่เข้าไปอยู่ในชั้นแป้งหรือเนื้อของอาหารมันออกยากกว่าที่คิด และถ้าเราต้อง “พึ่งวิธีรีดน้ำมันออก” ทุกครั้งที่ทอด นั่นแปลว่าน้ำมันที่ใช้มันอมน้ำมันเกินไปตั้งแต่แรกแล้ว ไม่ใช่หรือ?

“ทอดรอบเดียวก็จริง แต่ถ้าน้ำมันมันพังตั้งแต่โดนไฟ แล้วจะต่างอะไรกับทอดสิบรอบ?”

ท้ายของท้ายสุด เรื่องทอดไม่ใช่แค่เรื่องน้ำมัน แต่มีเรื่อง AGEs ด้วยซึ่งสำคัญกว่าใช้น้ำมันอะไรทอดเยอะเลยครับ นี่เขียนเพื่อบันทึกรายละเอียดของน้ำมันรำข้าวให้เฉยๆ

Como invocar a Deus?

O segundo capítulo do livro Confissões, de Santo Agostinho, começa com uma pergunta que toca o coração de todo aquele que busca a fé: “Como invocar a Deus?”

Essa questão, apesar de parecer simples, exige que tenhamos os olhos abertos para a verdade e uma consciência clara da nossa pequenez diante da grandeza divina. Somos pó diante do Criador — limitados, frágeis, tentando compreender o Infinito.

O Deus que não pode ser contido

Santo Agostinho se questiona sobre a presença de Deus e o que significa “conter” o Senhor. Ele reconhece que Deus está em todos os lugares — até mesmo no inferno. Como poderia ser diferente, se Deus é infinitamente grande?

“Nada pode conter Deus, nem mesmo o céu e a terra, suas maiores criações.”

Esse reconhecimento o leva a concluir: Deus não tem começo, meio ou fim. Ele é eterno, e nada pode delimitá-Lo.

O espanto da descoberta: Deus habita em nós Agostinho se espanta ao perceber que, se tudo o que existe só existe porque Deus o sustenta, então Deus está em tudo — inclusive dentro de nós. E aqui nasce uma nova dúvida:

Por que invocar a Deus se Ele já habita em mim? Como pode o Infinito caber em uma criatura tão pequena como o ser humano?

A beleza da doutrina católica

Estudar a doutrina católica é uma experiência profunda e transformadora. A riqueza com que ela trata o mistério de Deus é tão grandiosa, que toca até os corações mais endurecidos.

“Se algo existe, é porque Deus o sustenta. Ele está conosco. Ele nos dá o dom da vida.”

Essa verdade muda completamente a forma como enxergamos a realidade. Compreender que Deus sustenta até aqueles que se afastaram Dele nos leva a uma nova visão — mais compassiva, mais humana e mais próxima do amor de Cristo.

A presença de Deus até nas realidades mais difíceis

Essa reflexão me lembra algo que ouvia na igreja: o chamado de apresentar Cristo nos presídios. Sempre me perguntei como os pregadores viam a presença de Deus em pessoas que cometeram crimes cruéis.

Hoje, entendo que se alguém ainda existe, é porque Deus ainda o sustenta — mesmo que seus atos não agradem a Deus. A existência é um sinal de que a presença divina ainda está ali, chamando à conversão.

Conclusão: Deus está em tudo, inclusive em nós

Este capítulo não aprofunda como lidar com o inimigo ou com o mal, mas nos dá uma certeza essencial: Deus está em tudo e em todos.

Ao orar, não devemos buscá-Lo como alguém distante, mas sim olhar para dentro de nós. A presença de Deus habita em nós.

วันนี้มาเล่าเรื่อง animal base บ้างครับ เพราะหลายๆคนบอกว่า ดีนะฉันกินสัตว์ ฉันคิดว่าไขมันสัตว์ดีที่สุด รวมถึง plant base ที่ตัดสินฉาบฉวยว่าผม anti plant วันนี้มาเล่าข้อมูลเรื่องต่อไปกันครับ เพื่อให้เห็นว่า โลกของผู้ล่า มันไม่เลือกฝั่งครับ คำถามคือ เหยื่อจะเตรียมตัวอย่างไรมากกว่า เพราะเหยื่อยังทะเลาะกันเองอยู่เลย 55555

sub item ของ fiat food มีอย่างนึงที่เรียกว่า fake food ครับ ถ้าถามว่า “โปรตีนจากเซลล์” หรือ lab-grown meat ที่โฆษณาว่าเป็นทางเลือกแห่งอนาคตนั้น ภาพที่คนทั่วไปนึกถึงคืออะไร? คำตอบน่าจะไม่พ้น -เนื้อที่ไม่ต้องฆ่าสัตว์ -โปรตีนสะอาด ไร้มลพิษ -เทคโนโลยีแห่งอนาคตเพื่อสิ่งแวดล้อม

เชื่อไหมว่าความจริงนั้นมันอาจจะตรงกันข้ามกับทุกข้อที่ตอบมาเลยครับ

มันมาจากไหน?

"เนื้อเทียมจากห้องแล็บ" คือการเอาเซลล์สัตว์มาเพาะเลี้ยงในจานเพาะเลี้ยง โดยให้อาหารกับเซลล์พวกนั้นด้วยน้ำเลี้ยง (growth medium) เพื่อให้มันแบ่งตัวกลายเป็นกล้ามเนื้อ ฟังดูเหมือนปลอดภัยใช่ไหม? แต่ที่หลายคนไม่รู้คือ…

น้ำเลี้ยงที่ใช้ส่วนใหญ่มาจาก Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) หรือ ซีรั่มจากลูกวัวที่ถูกฆ่าขณะอยู่ในครรภ์แม่ มันคือ คือการเจาะหัวใจลูกวัวที่ยังไม่เกิด เพื่อเอาเลือดมาเลี้ยงเนื้อเทียม แน่นอนว่าการให้ข้อมูลนั้นเขาจะบอกว่า เก็บเกี่ยวเลือดจากตัวอ่อนของวัวหลังจากที่นำตัวอ่อนออกจากวัวที่ถูกเชือด ตัวอ่อนจะตายจากการขาดออกซิเจนโดยอยู่ในสภาพแวดล้อมที่ปลอดภัยของมดลูกเป็นเวลาอย่างน้อย 15-20 นาทีหลังจากวัวตายและแน่นอนว่าต้องให้ข้อมูลว่ามีการเก็บมาภายใต้การดูแลจริยธรรม

และถ้าจะไม่ใช้ FBS ก็ต้องใช้น้ำเลี้ยงสังเคราะห์ที่อัดแน่นด้วย growth factor สังเคราะห์, ยาปฏิชีวนะ, ฮอร์โมน และสารกระตุ้นการเจริญเติบโตแบบเข้มข้น มันคือ Frankenstein Protein เลยก็ว่าได้

ราคาที่แท้จริงไม่ใช่แค่เงิน แต่คืออำนาจต่างหากครับ

เบื้องหลังของ lab-grown meat คือบริษัททุนใหญ่ เช่น Eat Just (เจ้าของ Good Meat) Upside Foods Believer Meats CUBIQ Foods และเบื้องหลังอีกชั้นคือ VC ยักษ์ เช่น SoftBank, Temasek, Bill Gates, Tyson Foods ฯลฯ เริ่มเห็นภาพแล้วใช่ไหมครับ

ทุกเจ้ากำลังเร่งวิจัยเพื่อ “จดสิทธิบัตร” กระบวนการผลิต และพันธุกรรมของเซลล์สัตว์ ใช่จ้ะ… พันธุกรรมของวัว หมู ไก่ หรือแม้แต่ปลา ถูกดัดแปลงพันธุกรรมเพื่อให้เพาะง่าย โตไว อยู่ได้นาน และตอบโจทย์การผลิตในเชิงอุตสาหกรรม

ใครจะเลี้ยงวัวเองแล้วทำเนื้อกินเอง อาจโดนฟ้องในอนาคตว่าไปละเมิดพันธุ์สิทธิบัตรที่บริษัทครอบครอง

ต่อไปนี้ถ้าอยากขายเนื้อ ต้องเป็นเจ้าของห้องแล็บถึงแม้บริษัทเหหล่านี้จะบอกว่า “เราจะ democratize protein” คือทำให้ใครๆ ก็เข้าถึงโปรตีนได้ แต่ความจริงคือ ทุกกระบวนการตั้งแต่เซลล์ต้นแบบ อาหารเลี้ยงเซลล์ ยันเครื่องมือในแล็บ ล้วนมีสิทธิบัตร ใครที่ไม่มี license ก็ผลิตไม่ได้ พูดง่ายๆ ก็คือ…

“ของกินที่โตจากเซลล์ในอนาคตจะต้องมีใบอนุญาตจากบริษัท” ไม่มีแผ่นดินไหน ปลูกเอง กินเอง ได้อีกต่อไป

แล้วมันดีต่อสิ่งแวดล้อมจริงไหม? บริษัทแสนดีต่างๆชอบบอกว่าเนื้อแล็บช่วยลดการปล่อยคาร์บอนจากฟาร์มปศุสัตว์ แต่งานวิจัยของ Oxford, UC Davis และมหาวิทยาลัย Wageningen ชี้ว่า การผลิตเนื้อในห้องแล็บใช้พลังงานสูงกว่าปศุสัตว์จริง หลายเท่า และถ้าไม่ใช้พลังงานหมุนเวียน ก็จะปล่อยคาร์บอนมากกว่าการเลี้ยงวัวแบบดั้งเดิมเสียอีก

ตกลงมันคือ Clean Meat หรือ Clean Lie? Clean Meat ที่เขาโฆษณา อาจจะสะอาดแค่ “ภาพ” แต่องค์ประกอบข้างในคือ… -เซลล์สัตว์ที่ดัดแปลงยีนให้โตเร็ว -น้ำเลี้ยงเซลล์ที่มีสารกระตุ้นการเติบโต, ฮอร์โมน, ยาปฏิชีวนะ -ความไม่โปร่งใสเรื่องกระบวนการผลิต -ไม่มีฉลากบอกผู้บริโภคชัดเจน -ยังไม่มีการทดลองระยะยาวว่า “ปลอดภัยหรือไม่”

พรุ่งนี้ที่ไม่มีเกษตรกรจะเป็นยังไง ถ้าโปรตีนทั้งหมดผลิตในแล็บ แล้วเกษตรกรล่ะ? คนเลี้ยงสัตว์ล่ะ? คนเลี้ยงเป็ดไก่หลังบ้านล่ะ? คนปลูกผัก เลี้ยงวัว ทำฟาร์มแบบพื้นถิ่นล่ะ? ทุกคนจะตกขบวนอาหารของโลกใหม่ เพราะเกมนี้ไม่ได้วัดกันที่คุณภาพ แต่วัดกันที่ “ลิขสิทธิ์”

เรากำลังกินอนาคตที่เราไม่ได้เลือก ในชื่อของ “เทคโนโลยี” ในคราบของ “ทางเลือก” ในความนิยมของ "super food" แต่แท้จริงแล้ว เราอาจกำลังแลก สิทธิการควบคุมอาหาร ไปกับ “คำสัญญาว่าโลกจะดีขึ้น” ไม่ต่างอะไรจากการเอาอาหารไปวางไว้ในห้องแล็บ และล็อกประตูเอาไว้ให้คนไม่กี่คนถือกุญแจ

not your key, not your free เหมือนเพลงที่ผมเขียนไว้ในอัลบั้ม orange cafe ครับ https://youtu.be/k5jUpFXI6Gg?si=4GXOXjYbOpqX9kRb

@ df67f9a7:2d4fc200

Businesses want Nostr, but Nostr is not ready for business. What can be done?

TLDR :

What Nostr brings to business apps…

• Get your brands in front of users with your choice of SEO and Algos that YOU control.
• Access unlimited public user data from across the network without fees or permission.
• Keep your business data private, while "releasing" liability for other data collected by your apps.
• Build one app to reach a diversity of users from across the network, even from other apps.
• Build your own tech and to use it as you wish. No gate keepers or code review process.

Businesses want Nostr.

• Businesses want reliable SEO and socials to put their brands in front of users, rather than arbitrary gate keepers, censoring the marketplace on a whim.
• Businesses want open access to harvest public data for free on a soveregnty respecting network, rather than paying gate keepers for access to user data of questionalble origin.
• Businesses want the freedom to NOT take ownership of certain user data collected by their apps, rather than being liabile for moderation and safe handling on their private infrastructure.
• Busineses want a single open protocol on which to build their apps, with unlimited potential and a diversity of shared users from other apps, rather than multiple siloed networks with difering APIs and demographics.
• Businesses want to own the technology they build and to use it as they wish, rather than submit their code for approval and control by arbitrary gate keepers.

But Nostr is not ready for business.

• Businesses DON'T want proprietary app data stored publicly as signed Nostr events on user specified relays.
• Businesses DON'T want to have to specify, or be constrained by, or even navigate the complexity of Nostr NIP standards for every novel kind of content that their apps generate.
• Businesses DON'T want to "open source" their entire suite of native apps JUST to assure end users that Nostr private keys are being safely handled.
• Businesses DON'T want to have to "rewrite" their entire app backend just to accomodate the Nostr way of "users sign events but dont actually login to your server" auth architecture.
• Businesses DONT want to suffer DDOS from bots and bad actors, or to expose their users to unwanted content, or even to have their own content disappear a sea of spam and misinformation.

Here’s what can be done.

• More tools and services for private business apps to coexist with freedom tech, and even thrive together, on the Nostr network.
• Extensible Webs of Trust algos for discovery and reach into any audience or demographic of trusted users.
• WoT powered standard APIs for exposing content to Nostr (and other business apps) from within a “black box” business app.
• HTTP AUTH (NIP 98) integration for business apps, allowing users to create local content WITHOUT needing discrete signatures or “linked” user accounts.
• Frost compatible “login“ for business apps, allowing users to paste “disposable” nsecs into proprietary clients without fear of their “cold” nsec being compromised.
• Support for “incremental” (and voluntary) adoption of freedom tech into existing business apps, with easy off-ramps for businesses to transfer more and more siloed data onto the “public” network.

Thoughts so far…

🧠Quote(s) of the week:

'Let me understand…

I saved 30% of my income in Bitcoin over the last five years at an average price of $30,000. I now have 4.25 years of my income in savings.

Within 5 years, bitcoin goes to $500,000. I now have 25 years of my income in savings. I stop saving at this point and simply live off 100% of my income, avoiding selling any Bitcoin.

Within 15 years, Bitcoin goes to $15,000,000. I now have 750 years of my income in savings. I retire and live on >10x my yearly income for the rest of my life, and pass on generational wealth to my children.

Let me understand… why you didn’t listen to the maxis.' - Bit Paine

🧡Bitcoin news🧡

https://i.ibb.co/1fYbX77F/Go-R7-ZJu-Ww-AA0-Xy-Q.jpg

On the 7th of April:

➡️'Bitcoin has retraced to the 350DMA at ~$76,000! Historically, one of the strongest levels of support for Bitcoin during bull cycles...' - Bitcoin Magazine Pro

➡️ 'Tuttle just filed for a first-of-its-kind ETF: a Double Short MicroStrategy ETF. It aims to profit by shorting both the 2x long ($MSTU) and 2x short ($MSTZ) MSTR ETFs, betting on their decay from daily resets.' - Bitcoin News

➡️3$ billion community bank Union Savings discloses first Bitcoin exposure.

➡️The Rational Root: Bitcoin would have to fall below $64K by next week for the spiral chart to cross the 2021 cycle's first peak (~$64K on Apr 13) Well, that didn't happen. So for now the chart is still valid.

Meanwhile, PlanB was only off by about $320k so far for his April price prediction. Yikes! (I have to admit I fully bought into three S2F models when he came out with it back in 2018)

Personally, I am not fixed on the short-term price, listening to any crypto influencer's "prediction" is like believing in Santa Claus. (Almost) all TA is wrong, very little is useful in the end, and nobody knows shit..including myself.

➡️WHITE HOUSE: “The reserve function of the dollar has caused persistent currency distortions” We’re moving toward a global, distributed, neutral reserve asset for all. You have never needed Bitcoin more than at this moment.

https://i.ibb.co/KckFJTJh/Gn9ae9-XQAEi-1-V.jpg

On the 8th of April:

➡️'Bitcoin's hashrate surpassed 1 zetahash for the first time earlier this week. This means that, in aggregate, miners around the world produced 10^21 hashes per second for some time. 1 sextillion hashes. 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.' -TFTC

➡️'Strategy paused Bitcoin buys last week and clarified that shareholders don’t own its BTC. Not your keys, not your coins.' -TFCT Which isn't really news. Common sense: holding exposure, not ownership. "We may be required to sell bitcoin to satisfy our financial obligations, and we may be required to make such sales at prices below our cost basis or that are otherwise unfavorable."

➡️BlackRock expands Bitcoin custody beyond Coinbase. SEC filings reveal Anchorage Digital will safeguard a portion of BTC for BlackRock’s $45B iShares Bitcoin Trust. BlackRock cites the move as part of its “ongoing risk management” and growing presence in digital assets.

➡️Phoenix Wallet is back in the USA. Why are they back?

'We welcome the "Ending Regulation By Prosecution" memo by the US DAG, and the clarity it provides for developers and operators of Bitcoin software. This is consistent with Executive Order 14178 which recognized the importance of "protecting and promoting the ability of individual citizens and private-sector entities alike to [...] develop and deploy software [and] transact with other persons [...] and to maintain self-custody". We are happy to make our products available again in the USA.'

➡️The World Food Program USA now accepts bitcoin! WFP is the world’s largest humanitarian organization and part of the United Nations. Chief Philanthropy Officer says, “Embracing new technologies like cryptocurrency isn’t just a choice—it’s necessary.”

➡️Mastercard partners with Kraken to allow European users to spend Bitcoin at over 150 million merchants worldwide.

On the 9th of April:

➡️VanEck confirms that China and Russia are settling energy trades in Bitcoin. On top of that, the $115 billion VanEck stated on President Trump's tariffs the following: "Bitcoin is evolving from a speculative asset into a functional monetary tool—particularly in economies looking to bypass the dollar and reduce exposure to U.S.-led financial systems."

Meanwhile on the same day...

➡️The United States Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent just ended his speech this morning by saying, “We will take a close look at regulatory impediments to the blockchain, stablecoins, and new payment systems”

➡️Pakistan plans to allocate part of its surplus electricity to Bitcoin mining, Reuters reports.

➡️'In the Swedish Parliament: “No plans for a national Bitcoin reserve – that wouldn’t be wise. We will focus on safe assets that can help us in times of crisis.” A “safe” asset—or an asset to control? Bitcoin is neutral, borderless, and unconfiscatable. It’s the hedge modern nations need.' - BT-Chick

Watch the video here

What are safe assets? Does the S&P have more volatility? US treasuries? haha How can something be more liquid than Bitcoin which trades 24/7/365 on a global scale? What is "safe" is keywords for centralized and controlled. I am not surprised though, they are one of the most conservative countries in the world, HFSP! Tack!

On a side note, Christian Ander on X: "Meeting with an MP on Monday to push the idea of a Swedish Bitcoin reserve. Interest is growing across parties—but still a "no" for now. This has never been discussed this much in Parliament. Clear trend: younger MPs are driving it, and older ones blocking it. Vote accordingly."

➡️The world’s largest credit ratings agency, S&P Global Ratings says, ‘We are focused on Bitcoin. We are focused on its characteristics as an alternative form of money, and the fact it’s decentralized and geopolitically neutral. We are starting to see adoption’ - Reuters Business

➡️Laurastacksats gave a lesson about Bitcoin to an economics class at the University of Bologna, in Italy: the oldest university in the world.

➡️ On this day, Bitcoin accumulation addresses received 48,575 BTC, the largest single-day inflow since February 2022, per CryptoQuant.

On the 10th of April:

➡️'After utterly massive outperformance in the years and decades prior, Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway is about even with simply owning gold since 1998, or about 27 years ago.' - Lyn Alden

https://i.ibb.co/cSqWStcC/Go-I-3-J4-Xg-AATd-Jd.png

if you want to understand what interest rates do to investors, this tweet and graph would be a good immediate transmission on the nature of fake economies. Just be like Warren Buffet, without all the work. Just buy and hold a store of value. Bitcoin!

➡️The $30 billion public company founded by Jack Dorsey, Blocks, just released an open-source dashboard to make Bitcoin more accessible and transparent for corporate treasuries, helping lower the operational barriers for companies looking to add Bitcoin to their balance sheets.

➡️'The S&P 500 is as volatile as Bitcoin now, (and a day later) the S&P 500 is now more volatile than Bitcoin. A 77% standard deviation is NUTS, it's normally 10-15%.' - Eric Balchunas

Stocks merely adopted the volatility. Bitcoin was born in it. No more excuses for TradFi for saying Bitcoin is too volatile.

https://i.ibb.co/1GM2ghtQ/Go-La-Pkd-W8-AAJjz-C.png

For those who think Bitcoin is too volatile.

➡️'One of these things is not like the others. Change in currency supply (updated through 2024): bitcoin vs. global reserve currencies.' -Peter Parker https://i.ibb.co/5QjQ7Rf/Go-Mblov-Wk-AAz4-ZN.png

➡️S&P Global: “Bitcoin holdings may provide a hedge against long-term debasement of fiat currency through inflation, due to bitcoin's finite supply. Its value may also be driven by geopolitical factors if its security and decentralized nature lead to its increasing adoption as a reserve asset.”

➡️Parker Lewis: With or without Bessent, the Fed is functionally leveraging the US financial system by draining the system of dollar liquidity. Taking out dollars doesn't make the debt go away. Eventually, it breaks and the Fed will have to print even more money. It goes on and on until...Bitcoin.

💸Traditional Finance / Macro:

On the 7th of April:

👉🏽The Hang Seng just closed at 19,828, down 3,021 points or 13.2%, officially entering a bear market, down 20% from its March peak. In China, over 2,000 stocks hit the limit down, and the CSI 1000 futures plunged 10%, also hitting its trading halt limit.

On the 8th of April:

👉🏽Apple flies in 5 planes full of iPhones to avoid US tariffs.

👉🏽'THE S&P 500 OFFICIALLY ERASES +4.5% GAIN AND TURNS RED ON THE DAY. $2.3 TRILLION erased over the last 3 hours. On a point basis, the S&P 500 just posted its largest intraday reversal in history, even larger than 2020, 2008, and 2001. You have just witnessed history.' -TKL

On the 10th of April:

👉🏽The amount of SPY calls increased by over 10x literally 10 min before the announcement. It's very obvious that Trump's "now is a good time to buy" tweet was a way for insider traders to have plausible deniability.

https://i.ibb.co/TxpKMrbk/Go-IB-P8-XYAEp-YV5.png

Explanation: SPY is a way to buy/sell the S&P 500. When you buy a SPY 504 call, it gives you the right (for a fee) to buy a stock of SPY from someone at $504 at any time If it goes up to 554, you make (50 dollars - the fee).

Just so non-traders really understand what happened here: Right before the S&P 500 (SPY) suddenly spiked, someone bought a huge number of call options — bets that the index would go up that same day. These were zero-day options, meaning they expire worthless by the end of the day unless SPY rises quickly. At the time, they were almost worthless. Then, SPY shot up. Those dirt-cheap options exploded in value. A $100K bet turned into $21 million in minutes. That green spike before the jump is not luck. It’s foreknowledge. Someone knew exactly what was about to happen.

🏦Banks:

👉🏽 no news

🌎Macro/Geopolitics:

The current state of Macro & Geopolitics can be summed up like this: Everything about current market dynamics is just ‘Madness!’ Economic policy uncertainty is TWICE the level during the Pandemic.

On the 7th of April:

👉🏽A great post by Ray Dalio on X says tariffs are just the start. In the end, it's about a breakdown of the economic/monetary order (excessive global debt) & the global geopolitical order (US vs China). Basically, Trump is forcing the Fourth Turning through.

https://x.com/RayDalio/status/1909296189473693729 https://i.ibb.co/d0JqLqX9/Go-AO57n-W0-AADosd.jpg

I would say we are at stage 13 - 14.

Tariffs are a symptom of bigger problems. Don’t let arguments about tariffs distract us from solving the bigger problems. Also, governments are dysfunctional and life is hard. It’s the controlled demolition of a dying global system built on cheap Chinese labor, Wall Street debt games, and Washington sellouts. Ray sees the Big Cycle turning.

1) The global debt engine is seizing up. 2) The dollar is cornered by its own inflation. 3) The supply chain is a foreign hostage situation. 4) And the (U.S.) middle class got hollowed out so Davos could cash in.

To summarize: - Tariffs are a symptom, not the core issue. - Economic: Unsustainable debt, trade imbalances. - Political: Inequality fuels instability. - Geopolitical: Shift to a multipolar world. - Natural disasters: More frequent, disruptive. - Tech: AI reshapes economies and politics. - Key takeaway: Forces are linked; study history for future insight.

👉🏽On that same day: China restricts exports of seven rare earth metals to all countries.

👉🏽Lobby scandal: Between 2021 and 2023, NGOs received over €7 billion in support from the European budget. The European Court of Auditors has criticized the lack of transparency in EU funding to NGOs. There is a particular lack of reliable information and insufficient oversight. The European Commission funneled billions of euros to NGOs to promote its own policies and discredit opponents, as now also acknowledged by the European Court of Auditors. With a dubious leading role played by Frans Timmermans and Diederik Samsom.

👉🏽 'When a university with a $53 billion endowment needs to tap the bond market in this environment, it just tells you just how illiquid their investments really are.' -Mr. Vix Or is it just the game that you need to play? It is just a whole lot easier to do a debt raise than go to all stakeholders to adjust the allocation of the AUM, as all is earmarked, it would be a lengthy process.

https://i.ibb.co/mC0x8gdv/Gn8uzrn-Wk-AEJt6-G.jpg

They tapped the bond market in every prior year and they are rated aaa by ratings agencies. It isn’t just a function of the illiquidity of their investments. They hold about $3 billion that could be liquidated in one day or less (according to their financial statements). The real problem is that a vast majority of an endowment is earmarked for specific purposes—not that it is invested in illiquids.

On the 8th of April:

👉🏽President Trump says "China wants to make a deal, badly, but they don't know how to get it started." He also says that "we have the probability of a great deal" with South Korea after a call with their President.

Scott Bessent, US Treasury: Almost 70 countries have now approached us wanting to help rebalance global trade.

Regarding Bessent, read the following: an excellent thread. 'The Bessent Short' explained, so even you and I can understand it.

This is a very interesting narrative. If this plays out this thinking was exceptional. Another excellent thread on Bessent: https://x.com/timjcarden/status/1910440389217312784

👉🏽 The People's Bank of China injects a net 102.5 billion yuan in open market operations. Hello, liquidity!

👉🏽There is now a 98% chance of a 25 bps interest rate cut by the June FOMC meeting.

👉🏽The White House says 104% additional tariffs on China went into EFFECT at noon ET today because China has not removed their 34% tariff on the US, per Fox News. US Dollar vs. Chinese Yuan is going vertical, meaning China's currency is depreciating swiftly.

China's beginning currency devaluation is more than just an economic signal—it's a trigger. Historically, when the yuan weakens, capital doesn’t stay put. It escapes. Some of it flows into gold, some into foreign assets—and a meaningful slice finds its way into Bitcoin.

https://i.ibb.co/KpKSLrHd/Go-HRen8-Xo-AAOpi-H.jpg

Regarding the US and China theme above one more interesting stat: 'One shipyard in China made more commercial ships in 2024 than the total number the US has produced since World War II. The destruction of America’s industrial base is a massive national security threat.' - Geiger Capital

Now Europe is going to invest € 800billion in their 'Europe Army'. I am not saying we are getting a World War III, but the dynamics are interesting.

From your perspective, why the above statement from a US perspective is a bad one... Mother Russia is building combat vehicles & munitions at “an unprecedented pace" according to a U.S. commander in Europe. A reinvigorated Russian defense industrial base is rolling out:

-1,500 tanks,

-3,000 armored vehicles,

& -200 Iskander ballistic & cruise missiles this year.

By comparison, the U.S. builds just

-135 tanks/yr and

-0 / no longer produces Bradley Fighting Vehicles.

China now boasts the world’s largest -navy, -army, -air force, and -strategic rocket force. China’s robust maritime industry is primed to build and repair ships at a wartime tempo. In a drawn-out conflict, China would have the clear advantage in building, repairing, & maintaining warships at sea.'

https://i.ibb.co/6G1Z6Nw/Gn-Qc-LVXYAAo-NH6-1.jpg

This is why the tariffs are happening still not sure I agree with the blanket nature of them. It sounds like the US does not understand the macro picture very well and is very overconfident. But who am I to judge?

On the 10th of April:

👉🏽'Lots of headlines and rumors about Trump "asking the Supreme Court to fire Powell."

https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/absolutely-spectacular-meltdown-basis-trade-blowing-sparking-multi-trillion-liquidation

Explanation: The basis trade is when investors buy Treasury bonds and sell their futures, betting on small price gaps to make money. They often borrow a lot to boost profits, but it’s risky. Right now in April 2025, this trade is crashing, like in 2020. Hedge funds are losing big, selling bonds fast, which spikes Treasury yields and shakes markets. It’s a multi-trillion dollar mess, and some fear it could spark a crisis needing a huge Fed bailout, like last time. The chart likely shows yields jumping, signaling this panic.

👉🏽China raises tariffs on U.S. imports to 125%.

Here’s the real question, who gives up first? 1. President Trump 2. China 3. Bond market At this rate, the 10Y Note Yield will be at 5% next week. Inevitably, one of these 3 factors has to give very soon as this is unsustainable. Anyway... https://i.ibb.co/VYXByy2S/Go-ODsv-OWIAAu-M9v.jpg

👉🏽European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde: ECB is a ready-to-use instrument it has if needed!

On the same day, FED's Kashkari: The Fed has a tool to provide more liquidity. The Fed is reportedly "absolutely" ready to stabilize the market if needed, per Financial Times. Never discount the power of the bond market or the REPO market.

Coughing and clearing my throat for the people in the back: more liquidity, debt, printing money!

James Lavish: "Choose your phrase for translation:

“All roads lead to inflation.”

“Nothing stops this train.”

“The Fed will print again.”

👉🏽'March PPI inflation FALLS to 2.7%, below expectations of 3.3%. Core PPI inflation FALLS to 3.3%, below expectations of 3.6%. We just saw the first month-over-month decline in PPI inflation, down -0.4%, since March 2024. Both CPI and PPI inflation are down SHARPLY.' -TKL

👉🏽The U.S. budget deficit has risen to $1.3 trillion as government debt interest hits record levels. Data released by the Treasury Department on Thursday showed a deficit of $1.307 trillion for the first six months of the 2025 fiscal year, covering the period from October to March. This was the second-highest fiscal year deficit the U.S. has ever seen, with only the $1.706 trillion deficit in the first half of the 2021 fiscal year being larger.

On the 12th of April: 👉🏽M2 Money Supply going parabolic right now. Bitcoin is going parabolic soon. https://i.ibb.co/FL0W19kB/Go-VLj-Dv-Xk-AAol-Dt.jpg

BTC has tracked M2's movements 80% of the time for the past several years.

👉🏽The US publishes reciprocal tariff exclusions for computers, smartphones, and chip-making equipment. TKL: "Let's put the tariff exemptions into perspective: The US imports approximately $100 billion of computers, smartphones, and chip-making equipment from China PER YEAR. A total of $439 billion of goods were imported from China into the US in 2024. This means ~23% of ALL Chinese imports coming to the US are now exempt from "reciprocal tariffs." This is a massive U-Turn in tariff policy."

The bond market is Trump's #1 priority, and everyone knows it now.

Oh fun note, 2 minutes before the close on Friday someone bought $850,000 worth of SPY 554 calls expiring Monday. This morning the US released tariff exclusions...fascinating innit?

👉🏽RAY DALIO ON DOMESTIC & WORLD ORDER “I think that right now, we are at a decision-making point and very close to a recession. I'm worried about something worse than a recession if this isn't handled well. A recession is two negative quarters of GDP, and whether it goes slightly there, we always have those things. We have something that's much more profound. We have a breakdown of the monetary order. We are going to change the monetary order because we cannot spend the amounts of money.

So, we have that problem. And when we talk about the dollar, and we talk about tariffs, we have that. We are having profound changes in our domestic order, and how ruling is existing, and we're having profound changes in the world order. Such times are very much like the 1930s.

I've studied history, and this repeats over and over again. So, if you take tariffs, if you take debt, if you take the rising power challenging existing power, if you take those factors and look at the factors that those changes in the orders, the systems, are very, very disruptive.

@ 9063ef6b:fd1e9a09

Bitcoin is more than just a digital currency. It’s a technological revolution built on a unique set of properties that distinguish it from all other financial systems—past and present. From its decentralized architecture to its digitally verifiable scarcity, Bitcoin represents a fundamental shift in how we store and transfer value.

A Truly Decentralized Network

As of April 2025, the Bitcoin network comprises approximately 62,558 reachable nodes globally. The United States leads with 13,791 nodes (29%), followed by Germany with 6,418 nodes (13.5%), and Canada with 2,580 nodes (5.43%). bitnodes

This distributed structure is central to Bitcoin’s strength. No single entity can control the network, making it robust against censorship, regulation, or centralized failure.

---

Open Participation at Low Cost

Bitcoin's design allows almost anyone to participate meaningfully in the network. Thanks to its small block size and streamlined protocol, running a full node is technically and financially accessible. Even a Raspberry Pi or a basic PC is sufficient to synchronize and validate the blockchain.

However, any significant increase in block size could jeopardize this accessibility. More storage and bandwidth requirements would shift participation toward centralized data centers and cloud infrastructure—threatening Bitcoin’s decentralized ethos. This is why the community continues to fiercely debate such protocol changes.

---

Decentralized Governance

Bitcoin has no CEO, board, or headquarters. Its governance model is decentralized, relying on consensus among various stakeholders, including miners, developers, node operators, and increasingly, institutional participants.

Miners signal support for changes by choosing which version of the Bitcoin software to run when mining new blocks. However, full node operators ultimately enforce the network’s rules by validating blocks and transactions. If miners adopt a change that is not accepted by the majority of full nodes, that change will be rejected and the blocks considered invalid—effectively vetoing the proposal.

This "dual-power structure" ensures that changes to the network only happen through widespread consensus—a system that has proven resilient to internal disagreements and external pressures.

---

Resilient by Design

Bitcoin's decentralized nature gives it a level of geopolitical and technical resilience unmatched by any traditional financial system. A notable case is the 2021 mining ban in China. While initially disruptive, the network quickly recovered as miners relocated, ultimately improving decentralization.

This event underlined Bitcoin's ability to withstand regulatory attacks and misinformation (FUD—Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt), cementing its credibility as a global, censorship-resistant network.

---

Self-Sovereign Communication

Bitcoin enables peer-to-peer transactions across borders without intermediaries. There’s no bank, payment processor, or centralized authority required. This feature is not only technically efficient but also politically profound—it empowers individuals globally to transact freely and securely.

---

Absolute Scarcity

Bitcoin is the first asset in history with a mathematically verifiable, fixed supply: 21 million coins. This cap is hard-coded into its protocol and enforced by every full node. At the atomic level, Bitcoin is measured in satoshis (sats), with a total cap of approximately 2.1 quadrillion sats.

This transparency contrasts with assets like gold, whose total supply is estimated and potentially (through third parties on paper) expandable. Moreover, unlike fiat currencies, which can be inflated through central bank policy, Bitcoin is immune to such manipulation. This makes it a powerful hedge against monetary debasement.

---

Anchored in Energy and Time

Bitcoin's security relies on proof-of-work, a consensus algorithm that requires real-world energy and computation. This “work” ensures that network participants must invest time and electricity to mine new blocks.

This process incentivizes continual improvement in hardware and energy sourcing—helping decentralize mining geographically and economically. In contrast, alternative systems like proof-of-stake tend to favor wealth concentration by design, as influence is determined by how many tokens a participant holds.

---

Censorship-Resistant

The Bitcoin network itself is inherently censorship-resistant. As a decentralized system, Bitcoin transactions consist of mere text and numerical data, making it impossible to censor the underlying protocol.

However, centralized exchanges and trading platforms can be subject to censorship through regional regulations or government pressure, potentially limiting access to Bitcoin.

Decentralized exchanges and peer-to-peer marketplaces offer alternative solutions, enabling users to buy and sell Bitcoins without relying on intermediaries that can be censored or shut down.

---

High Security

The Bitcoin blockchain is secured through a decentralized network of thousands of nodes worldwide, which constantly verify its integrity, making it highly resistant to hacking. To add a new block of bundled transactions, miners compete to solve complex mathematical problems generated by Bitcoin's cryptography. Once a miner solves the problem, the proposed block is broadcast to the network, where each node verifies its validity. Consensus is achieved when a majority of nodes agree on the block's validity, at which point the Bitcoin blockchain is updated accordingly, ensuring the network's decentralized and trustless nature.

Manipulation of the Bitcoin network is virtually impossible due to its decentralized and robust architecture. The blockchain's chronological and immutable design prevents the deletion or alteration of previously validated blocks, ensuring the integrity of the network.

To successfully attack the Bitcoin network, an individual or organization would need to control a majority of the network's computing power, also known as a 51% attack. However, the sheer size of the Bitcoin network and the competitive nature of the proof-of-work consensus mechanism make it extremely difficult to acquire and sustain the necessary computational power. Even if an attacker were to achieve this, they could potentially execute double spends and censor transactions. Nevertheless, the transparent nature of the blockchain would quickly reveal the attack, allowing the Bitcoin network to respond and neutralize it. By invalidating the first block of the malicious chain, all subsequent blocks would also become invalid, rendering the attack futile and resulting in significant financial losses for the attacker.

One potential source of uncertainty arises from changes to the Bitcoin code made by developers. While developers can modify the software, they cannot unilaterally enforce changes to the Bitcoin protocol, as all users have the freedom to choose which version they consider valid. Attempts to alter Bitcoin's fundamental principles have historically resulted in hard forks, which have ultimately had negligible impact (e.g., BSV, BCH). The Bitcoin community has consistently rejected new ideas that compromise decentralization in favor of scalability, refusing to adopt the resulting blockchains as the legitimate version. This decentralized governance model ensures that changes to the protocol are subject to broad consensus, protecting the integrity and trustworthiness of the Bitcoin network.

Another source of uncertainty in the future could be quantum computers. The topic is slowly gaining momentum in the community and is being discussed.

1. The creative (but fleeting) pleasure of tactics

Chess tactics are like candy between meals - instant delight, but not true nourishment. Choosing whether to attack a bishop or a knight feels like picking between vanilla and chocolate ice cream: sprinkles or none, cherry on top or not...

• They’re freedom within boundaries: the board has limits, but imagination doesn’t.

• They mirror your style: quick strikes like an espresso? Or slow grinds like green tea?

2. Two tactics, two joys

• Simple (an exposed king): everyday wins (like finding cash in your pocket).

• Complex (3+ move combos): earned triumphs (like a project you’ve sweat over).

3. The Buddha’s warning: "Don’t Confuse the Sugar Rush for the Meal"

Buddhism teaches that clinging to pleasure (kāma-tanha) breeds suffering. In chess and life:

• Tactics are desserts: sweet, but not the feast.

  • Example: Beating a blunder is like winning the lottery; outplaying strategically is like building wealth.

• The balance: Revel in that dazzling queen sacrifice - but don’t bet your game on it. Like savoring cake, not devouring the whole bakery.

4. How to play (and Live) this wisdom

✅ Ask yourself:

• Is this move sound - or just seductive? (Like craving junk food vs. needing sustenance).

• Am I here to win, or to wow? (Ego checkmates you faster than any opponent).

Final Move: The middle path on 64 squares

Buddhism invites joy without attachment. On the board:

• Tactics = spice: they dazzle, but strategy feeds growth.

• Strategy = the harvest: the patience that crowns kings.

♟️ So - do you chase the fireworks, or cultivate the long game?

Las tácticas en ajedrez son como las golosinas entre comidas: satisfacción inmediata, pero no sustento real. Escoger entre atacar a un alfil o un caballo puede ser como elegir entre helado de vainilla o chocolate - con chispas o sin chispas, cereza o sin cereza....

• Son libertad dentro de las reglas: el tablero es finito, pero la creatividad no.

• Reflejan tu estilo: ¿ataques rápidos como un espresso? ¿O finales lentos como un té verde?

2. Dos tipos de tácticas, dos tipos de placeres

• Sencillas (como un rey descubierto): placeres cotidianos (como un golpe de buena suerte).

• Complejas (combinaciones de 3+ jugadas): placeres que exigen planificación (como cumplir metas).

3. La advertencia budista: "No confundas el postre con la cena"

El Buddha enseñó que aferrarse a los placeres (kāma-tanha) genera sufrimiento. En ajedrez y en la vida:

• Las tácticas son golosinas: te dan ventaja, pero no son estrategia.

  • Ejemplo: Ganar por un descuido del rival es como heredar dinero; ganar por planificación es como construir un negocio.

• El equilibrio: Disfruta ese sacrificio de dama espectacular… pero no bases tu juego en ellos. Como saborear un pastel ocasional sin volverse adicto al azúcar.

4. Cómo aplicar esto en el tablero (y en la vida)

✅ Pregúntate siempre:

• ¿Esta táctica es sólida o solo emocionante? (Como diferenciar antojo de hambre real).

• ¿Estoy jugando para ganar… o para impresionar? (El ego es peor enemigo que el rival).

Conclusión: El camino medio (ajedrecístico)

El budismo no pide renunciar a los placeres, sino disfrutarlos sin apego. En el ajedrez:

• Tácticas = especias: dan sabor, pero no son el plato principal.

• Estrategia = nutrición: lo que realmente te hace mejor jugador.

♟️ ¿Y tú? ¿Eres de los que prefieren un ataque brillante (aunque riesgoso) o una victoria lenta pero segura?
