2025-05-18 04:14:48Abstract
This document proposes a novel architecture that decouples the peer-to-peer (P2P) communication layer from the Bitcoin protocol and replaces or augments it with the Nostr protocol. The goal is to improve censorship resistance, performance, modularity, and maintainability by migrating transaction propagation and block distribution to the Nostr relay network.
Introduction
Bitcoin’s current architecture relies heavily on its P2P network to propagate transactions and blocks. While robust, it has limitations in terms of flexibility, scalability, and censorship resistance in certain environments. Nostr, a decentralized event-publishing protocol, offers a multi-star topology and a censorship-resistant infrastructure for message relay.
This proposal outlines how Bitcoin communication could be ported to Nostr while maintaining consensus and verification through standard Bitcoin clients.
Motivation
- Enhanced Censorship Resistance: Nostr’s architecture enables better relay redundancy and obfuscation of transaction origin.
- Simplified Lightweight Nodes: Removing the full P2P stack allows for lightweight nodes that only verify blockchain data and communicate over Nostr.
- Architectural Modularity: Clean separation between validation and communication enables easier auditing, upgrades, and parallel innovation.
- Faster Propagation: Nostr’s multi-star network may provide faster propagation of transactions and blocks compared to the mesh-like Bitcoin P2P network.
Architecture Overview
Components
-
Bitcoin Minimal Node (BMN):
- Verifies blockchain and block validity.
- Maintains UTXO set and handles mempool logic.
- Connects to Nostr relays instead of P2P Bitcoin peers.
-
Bridge Node:
- Bridges Bitcoin P2P traffic to and from Nostr relays.
- Posts new transactions and blocks to Nostr.
- Downloads mempool content and block headers from Nostr.
-
Nostr Relays:
- Accept Bitcoin-specific event kinds (transactions and blocks).
- Store mempool entries and block messages.
- Optionally broadcast fee estimation summaries and tipsets.
Event Format
Proposed reserved Nostr
kind
numbers for Bitcoin content (NIP/BIP TBD):| Nostr Kind | Purpose | |------------|------------------------| | 210000 | Bitcoin Transaction | | 210001 | Bitcoin Block Header | | 210002 | Bitcoin Block | | 210003 | Mempool Fee Estimates | | 210004 | Filter/UTXO summary |
Transaction Lifecycle
- Wallet creates a Bitcoin transaction.
- Wallet sends it to a set of configured Nostr relays.
- Relays accept and cache the transaction (based on fee policies).
- Mining nodes or bridge nodes fetch mempool contents from Nostr.
- Once mined, a block is submitted over Nostr.
- Nodes confirm inclusion and update their UTXO set.
Security Considerations
- Sybil Resistance: Consensus remains based on proof-of-work. The communication path (Nostr) is not involved in consensus.
- Relay Discoverability: Optionally bootstrap via DNS, Bitcoin P2P, or signed relay lists.
- Spam Protection: Relay-side policy, rate limiting, proof-of-work challenges, or Lightning payments.
- Block Authenticity: Nodes must verify all received blocks and reject invalid chains.
Compatibility and Migration
- Fully compatible with current Bitcoin consensus rules.
- Bridge nodes preserve interoperability with legacy full nodes.
- Nodes can run in hybrid mode, fetching from both P2P and Nostr.
Future Work
- Integration with watch-only wallets and SPV clients using verified headers via Nostr.
- Use of Nostr’s social graph for partial trust assumptions and relay reputation.
- Dynamic relay discovery using Nostr itself (relay list events).
Conclusion
This proposal lays out a new architecture for Bitcoin communication using Nostr to replace or augment the P2P network. This improves decentralization, censorship resistance, modularity, and speed, while preserving consensus integrity. It encourages innovation by enabling smaller, purpose-built Bitcoin nodes and offloading networking complexity.
This document may become both a Bitcoin Improvement Proposal (BIP-XXX) and a Nostr Improvement Proposal (NIP-XXX). Event kind range reserved: 210000–219999.

2025-05-18 04:01:44🧱 NostrTrust Trust Scoring System Draft (Model V0.2)
✨ Version: V0.2
📅 Date: May 18, 2025
🧭 Objective: To establish a decentralized trust scoring system driven by high-quality interactions for members of the Nostr community, including developers and content creators.
🔁 Overview of Key Rules
This version introduces a stricter mechanism to ensure that only high-trust users (T Score ≥ 1000) can influence others' scores through their actions. This helps maintain content quality and prevents abuse from low-reputation accounts.
✅ Users with T Score ≥ 1000 Can Earn Points by Posting Content
| Action Type | Weight | Conditions | |-------------|--------|------------| | Post Original Content | +10 points/post | Content length ≥ 50 characters, not duplicated | | Receive Likes from High-Trust Users | +2 points/like | The liker must have a T Score ≥ 1000 | | Receive Comments from High-Trust Users | +3 points/comment | Each comment counts once, commenter must have a T Score ≥ 1000 | | Get Shared by High-Trust Users | +5 points/share | Both the sharer and the shared user must have a T Score ≥ 1000 |
💡 Posts from new users do not contribute to score growth but serve as discovery and interaction opportunities.
❌ Penalties for Spam or Misconduct
All users, including those with high scores, will face penalties if they engage in spam or misconduct:
| Action Type | Penalty Points | Conditions | |-------------|----------------|------------| | Posting Advertisements | -20 points/ad | Includes external promotion links without context | | Duplicate Content | -10 points/post | Same content posted multiple times | | Reported (Verified) | -30 points/report | Verified through DVM or community arbitration | | Malicious Volume Boosting | -50 points/incident | Such as posting low-quality content rapidly | | Sensitive Content | -50 to -100 points | Including harassment, discrimination, illegal information, etc. |
⚠️ If a user's T Score drops below 1000 due to penalties, they will no longer receive points for posting until they recover above 1000 points.
🧮 Example Scenarios
Scenario One: A High-Trust User Posts Normally
- User A has a T Score of 2000
- Posts an original piece → +10 points
- Receives a like from a user with a T Score of 1200 → +2 points
- Receives a comment from a user with a T Score of 900 → No points
- Receives another comment from a user with a T Score of 1500 → +3 points
- Gets shared by a user with a T Score of 1000 → +5 points
✅ Total points earned this time: +20 points
Scenario Two: A High-Trust User Posts Spam
- User B has a T Score of 1500
- Posts an obvious advertisement → Gets reported and verified → -30 points
- User C, with a T Score of 10,000, likes this content → Does not add points (because the content is marked as spam)
🛠 Implementation Suggestions
1. Content Classification Tagging System (AI-Assisted)
Use lightweight NLP models to classify each piece of content:
ad
(advertisement)spam
(spam)duplicate
(duplicate)sensitive
(sensitive)normal
(normal)
Tags are automatically analyzed by DVM and recorded as kind=10002 events.
2. Reporting Process Loop Design
text User reports → Recorded as kind=10003 → DVM triggers preliminary assessment → If more than 3 reports → Submitted to DAO quick vote → Approved after review → Deduct points
3. Point Change Notification System
All point changes should be notified to the user via Nostr Event (such as kind=10001), and displayed in detail on the client side.
📋 Initial Trust Setup
| User Type | Initial T Score | Source Description | |-----------|-----------------|--------------------| | fiatjaf (Founder) | 10,000 | Creator of the protocol | | Core Developers | 5,000 - 8,000 | Contributed key code, tools, clients | | Active Contributors | 1,000 - 4,000 | Long-term active contributors with content/project contributions | | New Users | 0 | No initial trust, must build up through endorsements from others |
✅ All initial trusted users' T Scores are certified by DVM or DAO multisig and recorded as
kind=10000
events.
✅ Summary (V0.2 Update Highlights)
In this version, we introduced the following key mechanisms:
- Only high-trust users (T Score ≥ 1000) can give points via likes, comments, and shares
- The shared content owner must also be a high-trust user to receive share points
- Encourages high-quality content creation
- Prevents low-reputation users from affecting score fairness
- Strengthened detection and penalty mechanisms for spam content

Listen to the full episode here:
<<https://fountain.fm/episode/Ln9Ej0zCZ5dEwfo8w2Ho>>
Bitcoin has always been a narrative revolution disguised as code. White paper, cypherpunk lore, pizza‑day legends - every block is a paragraph in the world’s most relentless epic. But code alone rarely converts the skeptic; it’s the camp‑fire myth that slips past the prefrontal cortex and shakes hands with the limbic system. People don’t adopt protocols first - they fall in love with protagonists.
Early adopters heard the white‑paper hymn, but most folks need characters first: a pizza‑day dreamer; a mother in a small country, crushed by the cost of remittance; a Warsaw street vendor swapping złoty for sats. When their arcs land, the brain releases a neurochemical OP_RETURN which says, “I belong in this plot.” That’s the sly roundabout orange pill: conviction smuggled inside catharsis.
That’s why, from 22–25 May in Warsaw’s Kinoteka, the Bitcoin Film Fest is loading its reels with rebellion. Each documentary, drama, and animated rabbit‑hole is a stealth wallet, zipping conviction straight into the feels of anyone still clasped within the cold claw of fiat. You come for the plot, you leave checking block heights.
Here's the clip of the sermon from the episode:

2025-05-18 02:44:59執行摘要
隨著市場總市值上升至3.23兆美元,成交量回溫、ETF資金流入明顯,加密市場延續多頭氛圍。但恐懼與貪婪指數升至73,顯示情緒已接近過熱,短線波動風險上升。 這週建議關注三大重點:
美國CPI數據,若高於預期,可能變相打擊風險資產情緒。
BTC與ETH ETF資金動能是否延續,若出現流出,將成為市場調整的前兆。
衍生品槓桿風險升高,永續合約與期權市場高度集中於高價區,需提防誘多與清算風險。
同時觀察穩定幣市值與鏈上鯨魚行為,以判斷資金是否持續布局。整體而言,市場結構偏多,但上行須有資金支持,操作上宜保留彈性,避免追高。
加密市場
本週加密貨幣市場總市值達 3.26 兆美元,較上週略有增長,顯示市場仍維持穩定的發展趨勢。成交量下降至 112.21 億美元,交易活躍度減弱,可能反映部分資金選擇觀望。

情緒方面,恐懼與貪婪指數為 68,顯示市場情緒仍偏向「貪婪」,但略低於上週,顯示部分投資者可能開始謹慎評估市場風險。
https://www.coinglass.com/zh-TW/pro/i/FearGreedIndex
而相對強弱指標處於中性至超賣區間,顯示部分資產短期內可能出現修正壓力,但市場仍未進入明顯弱勢。
https://www.coinglass.com/zh-TW/pro/i/RsiHeatMap
山寨幣季節指數降至 20,顯示市場資金仍主要集中於比特幣和主流加密貨幣,風險偏好仍相對保守,尚未出現資金流向中小型代幣的明顯趨勢。
https://www.blockchaincenter.net/en/altcoin-season-index/
穩定幣市值增長至 2,438.36 億美元,可能反映部分資金正在尋求避險或等待市場更有利的進場機會。
https://defillama.com/stablecoins
小結
本週加密市場總市值持續上漲,但成交量下降,顯示交易活躍度略有減弱。恐懼與貪婪指數仍處於貪婪區間,市場風險偏好維持在較高水平,但部分投資者開始謹慎調整持倉策略。相對強弱指標顯示市場尚未進入明顯弱勢,但仍需關注潛在的短線修正壓力。山寨幣季節指數維持低迷,資金仍主要集中於主流加密貨幣,而穩定幣市值增長,可能顯示部分資金尋求避險。未來市場走勢將受宏觀經濟因素及市場資金流動影響。
衍生性商品
本週永續合約市場的持倉規模達 139.03B,相較於上週有所增長,顯示槓桿交易的需求依然強勁。
https://www.coinglass.com/zh-TW/pro/futures/Cryptofutures
資金費率方面,市場仍維持 正費率,主要交易所的資金費率保持在 0.0037%,反映出市場仍偏向多頭。
https://www.coinglass.com/zh-TW/FundingRate
爆倉數據顯示,這週空單爆倉總金額達 706.571M,而多單爆倉總金額則為 1372.977M,多頭在近期市場波動中承受較大的壓力。
https://www.coinglass.com/zh-TW/LiquidationData
清算熱力圖顯示,$106,000 附近 的清算金額達 140.89M,而 $93,000 附近 也有 122.62M 的清算,這些區間成為市場的關鍵價格點,投資者需特別留意可能的風險變化。
https://www.coinglass.com/zh-TW/pro/futures/LiquidationHeatMap
期權市場的數據顯示投資者仍在不同價格區間進行避險與投機交易:
$95,000 行權價的看跌期權合約數量為 6.15K,總金額達 $16.77M,顯示市場對該區間的下行風險仍有一定防禦。 $105,000 行權價的看漲期權合約數量為 9.25K,總金額達 $43.15M,反映出市場對上行的預期仍在增強。
https://www.coinglass.com/zh-TW/pro/options/OIStrike
此外,最大痛點出現在 2025/05/23 的 $101,000,名義金額達 2.29B;以及 2025/05/30 的 $94,000,名義金額達 7.74B,顯示出市場對不同價格區間的佈局仍有差異。
https://www.coinglass.com/zh-TW/pro/options/max-pain
小結
本週加密貨幣衍生性商品市場顯示出槓桿交易活躍度提升,多頭與空頭的資金配置仍然存在激烈競爭。市場熱點價格區間的清算規模較大,投資者需謹慎管理槓桿與風險,以應對可能的市場變動。期權市場方面,看跌與看漲期權的配置策略反映出市場對短期與中期走勢仍存在分歧。建議投資者密切關注市場數據,根據資金流向與爆倉情況調整交易策略,以降低風險並把握可能的交易機會。
ETF
本週,加密貨幣衍生性商品市場仍保持活躍,其中比特幣(BTC)與以太坊(ETH)的ETF資金流入顯示市場對兩大主流加密貨幣的投資興趣,比特幣ETF本週流入3.214億美元。 而以太坊ETF則流入1,760萬美元,顯示機構與散戶投資者對市場的信心維持穩定。
小結
本週加密貨幣衍生性商品市場展現穩定的資金流入,特別是ETH的增長值得關注。比特幣與以太坊ETF的資金流向反映市場投資信心,且衍生性商品交易量可能進一步影響市場波動。未來需持續觀察市場變化,尤其是宏觀經濟環境及技術面發展對ETF與衍生性商品的影響。
鏈上分析 | BTC
本週二級交易所的比特幣儲備量再度創下歷史新低,顯示市場上可供交易的比特幣供給持續緊縮。
從地址分布來看,持有 10-100 顆比特幣的中型地址數量持續下滑,反映部分中型持倉者選擇獲利了結或資金退出;相對地,大型持倉者如 100-1k、1k-10k 以及 10k 顆以上的地址數量皆呈現穩定上升趨勢,顯示籌碼進一步向大戶集中。
https://cryptoquant.com/community/dashboard/67e2481ba2a7203afd437b31
此外,鯨魚活躍地址全面上升,說明大戶參與度提升,對市場後續走勢持續看好。整體而言,鏈上數據反映出比特幣的供給減少與籌碼集中化,為後市行情提供潛在支撐。
https://cryptoquant.com/community/dashboard/67e2481ba2a7203afd437b31
本週觀察到長期持有者(Long-Term Holder, LTH)持倉供應量出現明顯上升,代表市場中愈來愈多的比特幣進入長期持有狀態,顯示出投資人對中長期行情仍具信心。
https://www.bitcoinmagazinepro.com/charts/long-term-holder-supply/
反觀,短期持有者(Short-Term Holder, STH)供應則出現下滑,意味著近期參與市場的投機資金正在減少。
https://www.bitcoinmagazinepro.com/charts/short-term-holder-supply/
近期由於比特幣價格逼近歷史高點,使得「處於盈利狀態的地址數(Address in Profit)」比例接近 100%。這代表絕大多數持幣地址的成本價低於當前市價,市場整體處於全面盈利階段。雖然這反映出強勁的多頭趨勢,但同時也需留意潛在的獲利了結壓力,尤其在關鍵壓力位附近,需密切觀察資金動能是否持續。
https://www.bitcoinmagazinepro.com/charts/percent-addresses-in-profit/
從長期視角來觀察,「處於虧損的地址比例(Address in Loss)」正持續下降,顯示過去高位買入的投資人正逐步回到盈虧平衡或獲利區間。這一趨勢反映出比特幣價格的穩步抬升,也暗示著比特幣正逐漸被市場接受為一種較為穩定的資產。隨著波動性相對收斂與長期持有者的增多,比特幣的資產屬性正從高風險投機品,轉向具有價值儲存特性的數位資產。
https://www.bitcoinmagazinepro.com/charts/percent-addresses-in-loss/
小結
本週比特幣的鏈上指標持續展現出多頭格局。首先,二級交易所的比特幣儲備量再度創下新低,顯示市場中的拋壓持續減輕,資產正加速流向冷錢包與長期持有者手中。地址分布方面,10-100 顆的中型地址數量持續下滑,而 100-1k、1k-10k、10k+ 顆的大型地址則全數增加,配合鯨魚活躍地址全線上升,顯示大戶持續看好後市,並積極布局。
此外,Long Term Holder Supply 顯著上升,Short Term Holder Supply 持續下降,反映出短期持有者轉向長期持有的趨勢,加深市場籌碼的穩定性。
「Address in Profit」接近歷史高點所帶來的接近 100% 營利比例,以及「Address in Loss」占比的長期下降,可見比特幣正逐步邁向一個波動性較低、價值穩定的資產狀態。
整體而言,鏈上數據持續呈現健康結構,主力資金與長期持有者共同強化市場底部,有助於支撐比特幣中長期的上行動能。
總體經濟
本週總體經濟數據顯示,聯邦基金有效利率仍維持在 4.33%,反映市場依然處於高利率環境。
https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/FEDFUNDS
隨著 6 月 18 日即將召開的聯邦公開市場委員會 (FOMC) 會議,市場對利率決策的預期有所變化,目前 4.25%-4.50% 區間的預測機率已從 81.2% 上升至 91.7%,而 4.00%-4.25% 的預期則下降至 8.3%,顯示市場對於維持較高利率的共識正在增強。
https://www.cmegroup.com/cn-t/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html
最新公佈的消費者物價指數 (CPI) 為 2.33%,較前期 2.41% 略有下降,但仍接近聯準會設定的長期目標範圍。此外,失業率保持在 4.2%,顯示勞動市場仍然穩定,企業對人力需求的支撐作用持續發揮。當前情勢意味著聯準會在利率決策上將維持謹慎,避免過度調整對經濟產生負面影響。
https://www.macromicro.me/series/37/unemployment-rate
https://www.macromicro.me/series/128/consumer-price-index-sa-yoy
小結
目前總體經濟環境仍維持穩定,市場預期聯準會將在 6 月 18 日會議上保持利率不變,並密切關注未來的經濟數據變動。投資者仍需密切跟蹤即將公佈的通膨與就業指標,以尋找可能影響市場走勢的重要因素。

@ 04c915da:3dfbecc9
2025-05-16 18:06:46Bitcoin has always been rooted in freedom and resistance to authority. I get that many of you are conflicted about the US Government stacking but by design we cannot stop anyone from using bitcoin. Many have asked me for my thoughts on the matter, so let’s rip it.
Concern
One of the most glaring issues with the strategic bitcoin reserve is its foundation, built on stolen bitcoin. For those of us who value private property this is an obvious betrayal of our core principles. Rather than proof of work, the bitcoin that seeds this reserve has been taken by force. The US Government should return the bitcoin stolen from Bitfinex and the Silk Road.
Using stolen bitcoin for the reserve creates a perverse incentive. If governments see bitcoin as a valuable asset, they will ramp up efforts to confiscate more bitcoin. The precedent is a major concern, and I stand strongly against it, but it should be also noted that governments were already seizing coin before the reserve so this is not really a change in policy.
Ideally all seized bitcoin should be burned, by law. This would align incentives properly and make it less likely for the government to actively increase coin seizures. Due to the truly scarce properties of bitcoin, all burned bitcoin helps existing holders through increased purchasing power regardless. This change would be unlikely but those of us in policy circles should push for it regardless. It would be best case scenario for American bitcoiners and would create a strong foundation for the next century of American leadership.
Optimism
The entire point of bitcoin is that we can spend or save it without permission. That said, it is a massive benefit to not have one of the strongest governments in human history actively trying to ruin our lives.
Since the beginning, bitcoiners have faced horrible regulatory trends. KYC, surveillance, and legal cases have made using bitcoin and building bitcoin businesses incredibly difficult. It is incredibly important to note that over the past year that trend has reversed for the first time in a decade. A strategic bitcoin reserve is a key driver of this shift. By holding bitcoin, the strongest government in the world has signaled that it is not just a fringe technology but rather truly valuable, legitimate, and worth stacking.
This alignment of incentives changes everything. The US Government stacking proves bitcoin’s worth. The resulting purchasing power appreciation helps all of us who are holding coin and as bitcoin succeeds our government receives direct benefit. A beautiful positive feedback loop.
Realism
We are trending in the right direction. A strategic bitcoin reserve is a sign that the state sees bitcoin as an asset worth embracing rather than destroying. That said, there is a lot of work left to be done. We cannot be lulled into complacency, the time to push forward is now, and we cannot take our foot off the gas. We have a seat at the table for the first time ever. Let's make it worth it.
We must protect the right to free usage of bitcoin and other digital technologies. Freedom in the digital age must be taken and defended, through both technical and political avenues. Multiple privacy focused developers are facing long jail sentences for building tools that protect our freedom. These cases are not just legal battles. They are attacks on the soul of bitcoin. We need to rally behind them, fight for their freedom, and ensure the ethos of bitcoin survives this new era of government interest. The strategic reserve is a step in the right direction, but it is up to us to hold the line and shape the future.

2025-04-10 18:48:57What is consciousness, and can it be changed or enhanced? This is a question that humans have struggled with for a very long time. The question of consciousness alone is daunting. Some even argue that humans will never be able to find the answer. Regardless, the quest for knowledge is not always about the answer, rather it is the journey that is revealing. This is true not only for our society, but the individual as well. The search for the truth often leads one down a path of self-reflection, and can lead to conclusions previously thought to be ludicrous. Here, I will argue that consciousness can be interpreted as an interpretation of reality, where the interpretation may become clearer and more accurate through practices such as meditation.
Consciousness
To articulate this idea, the concept of consciousness must firstly be discussed. There is an incredibly interesting TED talk given by Anil Seth, where he describes consciousness as an illusion. He explains how the brain receives signals from both the internal and external environment of the body, makes an interpretation of those signals, which creates our conscious experience. In his scientific writing, he claims that the brain can be viewed as a prediction machine1. He argues that the brain is constantly making predictions and error correcting in order to gain understanding of the signals it is receiving. He is not alone in this theory, and many other researchers concur that the constant comparison of internal predictions and external stimuli is what generates the brain’s sensations of causal forces2. There are plenty of reasons to believe this is true. Imagine, the brain is receiving all kinds of neuronal signals both from external stimuli sensors and sensors for our internal systems. These signals all shoot up the spinal cord to the brain. It is unclear that these neuronal signals are stamped with an identifier of where they came from, so the brain has to make a predictive model for not only where the signal came from, but also why the signal came at all. The latter is important for survival: the use of our senses to accurately predict our environment would be a critical reason why consciousness developed in the first place. Imagine you are an ancient hominid walking in the wild: you see a tangled cord like thing around a branch on the tree. You need to process that information, determine if it is more branch or a snake and act accordingly. This is a potential biological reason for the manifestation of thought and problem solving. This is a very meta-cognitive example of our brain receiving information and then using previous knowledge to generate a predictive conclusion on the external reality.
There are also examples of this outside of the more obvious meta-cognitive examples. A good example is the famous rubber hand experiment. The first rubber hand experiment was conducted in 1998 by Botvinick and Cohen3. In this experiment, a subject places their hand on a table with a screen blocking their view of their own hand. A rubber hand is then placed on the other side of the screen where it is visible. The experimenter rubs both the rubber hand and real hand with a paint brush. By the end of the experiment, subjects begin to feel as if the rubber hand is their own limb3. The brain, using the visual senses, detects that a hand is being stroked with a brush while sensory neurons send signals that the hand is experiencing the touch of a paint brush. These two signals cause the predicting brain to think that the rubber hand is our hand. This experiment has been repeated many times in different ways. It has been observed that participants begin to react defensively to the threat of pain or damage to the rubber hand4. This illustrates the powerful extent at which the brain processes and reacts to information that it interprets from reality. Amazingly, some research suggests that the touch aspect of the experiment isn’t even necessary to produce the illusion5. Others have recreated this experience using virtual reality, citing that when the virtual hand changed color in response to the subject’s heartbeat, a significant sense of body ownership was generated6. Body ownership, and our sense of reality is arguably determined by our brain’s interpretation of both internal and external stimuli.
The Neuroscience and Meditation
It is hypothesized that the anterior insular cortex (AIC) is involved in the comparison of the stimuli to the predicted model1. Interestingly, the same brain region is associated with the anticipation of pain7. For those unaware, there is some research to suggest that much of the pain we experience is not due to the actual noxious stimuli (physical pain sensation), but from the anticipation of that pain. Evidence for this can be found in studies such as Al-Obaidi et al. from 2005, that concluded that the pain experienced in patients with chronic low back pain could not be solely attributed to the sensor signals, but from the anticipation of the pain8. Additionally, the anticipation of pain relief is the primary contributor to placebo analgesia (placebo pain killers)9. Furthermore, a large body of research has been conducted showing that meditators show a decreased anticipatory attitude towards pain, subsequently experiencing less unpleasant pain 7,10,11. For example, chronic pain in multiple areas such as the low back, neck, shoulder, and arms have been shown to reduce after meditation practice12. Finally, an extreme case study worth noting is of a yogi master who claimed to not experience pain at all13. When this master was brought into the lab, not only did he not experience pain, but his thalamus showed no additional activation following painful stimuli13. What is fascinating about this is that the thalamus is the main relay station for all incoming somatosensory information14, and some argue that this is a candidate for the location of consciousness15. To not have strong activation here after painful stimuli is to suggest a radical change in how the brain receives incoming stimuli, and perhaps is indicative in a dramatic shift in how this individual’s conscious experiences the world. Though this is but one small example, the previous studies outline a strong case for meditation’s ability to alter the way the brain processes information. Given meditation involves the active practice of generating an open and non-judgmental attitude towards all incoming stimuli, perhaps this alters the processing of incoming stimuli, thereby changing the predictive model. On a similar note, perhaps it relates to neuroplastic changes that occur within the brain. It has been noted that the AIC is activated during times of awareness of mind wandering16. This suggests that the AIC is in use frequently during meditation practices. Perhaps it is strengthened then by meditation, thereby also allowing for greater prediction model generation. Imagine the mind as a pond. If the pond is calm and still, one single rain drop rippling in the pond is clearly identifiable. One would easily know information about the droplet, because the ripple could be easily analyzed. Now imagine a pond during a rain storm, where an uncountable amount of rain drops is hitting the pond and there are ripples everywhere. One could not adequately make out where each ripple came from, because there would be too much overlap in the ripples. This may be how the brain functions as well. When the signals are low, and no extraneous thoughts and interpretations are created from signals, then the brain’s prediction model can easily determine where and why a signal it received came from. If, however, the mind is chaotic and full of internal noise, then the brain has a harder time creating an accurate understanding of incoming stimuli and generating a correct model.
Enlightenment
Enlightenment, from a scientific point of view, has been defined as a form of awareness where a person feels that s/he has gained a new understanding of reality 17. In this sense, it bears a striking relationship to the topic of consciousness. If consciousness can be defined as our interpretation of the external and internal environment through our mental prediction model, then experiences of enlightenment are defined by moments where our interpretation is completely changed in a profound way. The experiences are often characterized by the loss of individuality and consequent identification of being part of a greater oneness 18,19. As an interesting side note, this same experience is common amongst subjects, who in a double-blinded study, take psilocybin (the active ingredient in magic mushrooms)20,21. The neuroscience of enlightenment is particularly interesting. The temporo-parietal junction of the brain is involved with self-location and body ownership22. Unsurprisingly, this area is highly involved in the illusion of the rubber hand experiment23. This is the same brain area that is hypothesized to be related to these enlightened experiences of oneness 17. If this brain area, which handles the interpretation of where and what the body is, was to decrease in activation, then the brain would generate a more ambiguous interpretation that the self and the external environment are less distinct than previously thought. This is a possible explanation to why enlightenment experiences involve a feeling of oneness with everything. To bring this all home, meditation has been shown to decrease parietal lobe activation 4,24. Suggesting that meditation can be a method of adjusting the brain’s interpretation of stimuli to generate an outlook that is unifying in perceptive.
Closing Remarks
The evidence that meditation may lead to an altered conscious living has deep philosophical implications. Meditation is a practice that, in part, involves an open awareness to all incoming stimuli alongside the absence of any meta-cognitive interpretation or processing of said stimuli. This generation of a still mind may generate a more accurate prediction model of incoming stimuli, void of any corruption on the part of our thoughts. Given the observation that meditation, both scientifically and culturally, can lead to an understanding and experience of a greater oneness amongst all suggests that this interpretation of incoming stimuli is the more accurate interpretation. It is hard to imagine that anyone would not advocate the beauty and usefulness of this perspective. If more people had this perspective, we would have a much more peaceful, happy and unified society and planet. Ironically, our culture often aims to arrive to this philosophical perspective through analytical thought. However, given the evidence in this post, perhaps it is the absence of analytical thought, and the stillness of the mind that truly grants this perspective.

2025-05-16 17:59:23Recently we have seen a wave of high profile X accounts hacked. These attacks have exposed the fragility of the status quo security model used by modern social media platforms like X. Many users have asked if nostr fixes this, so lets dive in. How do these types of attacks translate into the world of nostr apps? For clarity, I will use X’s security model as representative of most big tech social platforms and compare it to nostr.
The Status Quo
On X, you never have full control of your account. Ultimately to use it requires permission from the company. They can suspend your account or limit your distribution. Theoretically they can even post from your account at will. An X account is tied to an email and password. Users can also opt into two factor authentication, which adds an extra layer of protection, a login code generated by an app. In theory, this setup works well, but it places a heavy burden on users. You need to create a strong, unique password and safeguard it. You also need to ensure your email account and phone number remain secure, as attackers can exploit these to reset your credentials and take over your account. Even if you do everything responsibly, there is another weak link in X infrastructure itself. The platform’s infrastructure allows accounts to be reset through its backend. This could happen maliciously by an employee or through an external attacker who compromises X’s backend. When an account is compromised, the legitimate user often gets locked out, unable to post or regain control without contacting X’s support team. That process can be slow, frustrating, and sometimes fruitless if support denies the request or cannot verify your identity. Often times support will require users to provide identification info in order to regain access, which represents a privacy risk. The centralized nature of X means you are ultimately at the mercy of the company’s systems and staff.
Nostr Requires Responsibility
Nostr flips this model radically. Users do not need permission from a company to access their account, they can generate as many accounts as they want, and cannot be easily censored. The key tradeoff here is that users have to take complete responsibility for their security. Instead of relying on a username, password, and corporate servers, nostr uses a private key as the sole credential for your account. Users generate this key and it is their responsibility to keep it safe. As long as you have your key, you can post. If someone else gets it, they can post too. It is that simple. This design has strong implications. Unlike X, there is no backend reset option. If your key is compromised or lost, there is no customer support to call. In a compromise scenario, both you and the attacker can post from the account simultaneously. Neither can lock the other out, since nostr relays simply accept whatever is signed with a valid key.
The benefit? No reliance on proprietary corporate infrastructure.. The negative? Security rests entirely on how well you protect your key.
Future Nostr Security Improvements
For many users, nostr’s standard security model, storing a private key on a phone with an encrypted cloud backup, will likely be sufficient. It is simple and reasonably secure. That said, nostr’s strength lies in its flexibility as an open protocol. Users will be able to choose between a range of security models, balancing convenience and protection based on need.
One promising option is a web of trust model for key rotation. Imagine pre-selecting a group of trusted friends. If your account is compromised, these people could collectively sign an event announcing the compromise to the network and designate a new key as your legitimate one. Apps could handle this process seamlessly in the background, notifying followers of the switch without much user interaction. This could become a popular choice for average users, but it is not without tradeoffs. It requires trust in your chosen web of trust, which might not suit power users or large organizations. It also has the issue that some apps may not recognize the key rotation properly and followers might get confused about which account is “real.”
For those needing higher security, there is the option of multisig using FROST (Flexible Round-Optimized Schnorr Threshold). In this setup, multiple keys must sign off on every action, including posting and updating a profile. A hacker with just one key could not do anything. This is likely overkill for most users due to complexity and inconvenience, but it could be a game changer for large organizations, companies, and governments. Imagine the White House nostr account requiring signatures from multiple people before a post goes live, that would be much more secure than the status quo big tech model.
Another option are hardware signers, similar to bitcoin hardware wallets. Private keys are kept on secure, offline devices, separate from the internet connected phone or computer you use to broadcast events. This drastically reduces the risk of remote hacks, as private keys never touches the internet. It can be used in combination with multisig setups for extra protection. This setup is much less convenient and probably overkill for most but could be ideal for governments, companies, or other high profile accounts.
Nostr’s security model is not perfect but is robust and versatile. Ultimately users are in control and security is their responsibility. Apps will give users multiple options to choose from and users will choose what best fits their need.

2025-05-16 17:51:54In much of the world, it is incredibly difficult to access U.S. dollars. Local currencies are often poorly managed and riddled with corruption. Billions of people demand a more reliable alternative. While the dollar has its own issues of corruption and mismanagement, it is widely regarded as superior to the fiat currencies it competes with globally. As a result, Tether has found massive success providing low cost, low friction access to dollars. Tether claims 400 million total users, is on track to add 200 million more this year, processes 8.1 million transactions daily, and facilitates $29 billion in daily transfers. Furthermore, their estimates suggest nearly 40% of users rely on it as a savings tool rather than just a transactional currency.
Tether’s rise has made the company a financial juggernaut. Last year alone, Tether raked in over $13 billion in profit, with a lean team of less than 100 employees. Their business model is elegantly simple: hold U.S. Treasuries and collect the interest. With over $113 billion in Treasuries, Tether has turned a straightforward concept into a profit machine.
Tether’s success has resulted in many competitors eager to claim a piece of the pie. This has triggered a massive venture capital grift cycle in USD tokens, with countless projects vying to dethrone Tether. Due to Tether’s entrenched network effect, these challengers face an uphill battle with little realistic chance of success. Most educated participants in the space likely recognize this reality but seem content to perpetuate the grift, hoping to cash out by dumping their equity positions on unsuspecting buyers before they realize the reality of the situation.
Historically, Tether’s greatest vulnerability has been U.S. government intervention. For over a decade, the company operated offshore with few allies in the U.S. establishment, making it a major target for regulatory action. That dynamic has shifted recently and Tether has seized the opportunity. By actively courting U.S. government support, Tether has fortified their position. This strategic move will likely cement their status as the dominant USD token for years to come.
While undeniably a great tool for the millions of users that rely on it, Tether is not without flaws. As a centralized, trusted third party, it holds the power to freeze or seize funds at its discretion. Corporate mismanagement or deliberate malpractice could also lead to massive losses at scale. In their goal of mitigating regulatory risk, Tether has deepened ties with law enforcement, mirroring some of the concerns of potential central bank digital currencies. In practice, Tether operates as a corporate CBDC alternative, collaborating with authorities to surveil and seize funds. The company proudly touts partnerships with leading surveillance firms and its own data reveals cooperation in over 1,000 law enforcement cases, with more than $2.5 billion in funds frozen.
The global demand for Tether is undeniable and the company’s profitability reflects its unrivaled success. Tether is owned and operated by bitcoiners and will likely continue to push forward strategic goals that help the movement as a whole. Recent efforts to mitigate the threat of U.S. government enforcement will likely solidify their network effect and stifle meaningful adoption of rival USD tokens or CBDCs. Yet, for all their achievements, Tether is simply a worse form of money than bitcoin. Tether requires trust in a centralized entity, while bitcoin can be saved or spent without permission. Furthermore, Tether is tied to the value of the US Dollar which is designed to lose purchasing power over time, while bitcoin, as a truly scarce asset, is designed to increase in purchasing power with adoption. As people awaken to the risks of Tether’s control, and the benefits bitcoin provides, bitcoin adoption will likely surpass it.

Advanced Protection has a bunch of requested features that address the kinds of threats we worry about.
It's the kind of 'turn this one thing on if you face elevated risk' that we've been asking for from Google.
And likely reflects some learning after Google watched Apple 's Lockdown Mode play out. I see a lot of value in this..
Here are some features I'm excited to see play out:
The Intrusion Logging feature is interesting & is going to impose substantial cost on attackers trying to hide evidence of exploitation. Logs get e2ee encrypted into the cloud. This one is spicy.
The Offline Lock, Inactivity Reboot & USB protection will frustrate non-consensual attempts to physically grab device data.
Memory Tagging Extension is going to make a lot of attack & exploitation categories harder.
2G Network Protection & disabling Auto-connect to insecure networks are going to address categories of threat from things like IMSI catchers & hostile WiFi.
I'm curious about some other features such as:
Spam & Scam detection: Google messages feature that suggests message content awareness and some kind of scanning.
Scam detection for Phone by Google is interesting & coming later. The way it is described suggests phone conversation awareness. This also addresses a different category of threat than the stuff above. I can see it addressing a whole category of bad things that regular users (& high risk ones too!) face. Will be curious how privacy is addressed or if this done purely locally. Getting messy: Friction points? I see Google thinking these through, but I'm going to add a potential concern: what will users do when they encounter friction? Will they turn this off & forget to re-enable? We've seen users turn off iOS Lockdown Mode when they run into friction for specific websites or, say, legacy WiFi. They then forget to turn it back on. And stay vulnerable.
Bottom line: users disabling Apple's Lockdown Mode for a temporary thing & leaving it off because they forget to turn it on happens a lot. This is a serious % of users in my experience...
And should be factored into design decisions for similar modes. I feel like a good balance is a 'snooze button' or equivalent so that users can disable all/some features for a brief few minute period to do something they need to do, and then auto re-enable.
Winding up:
I'm excited to see how Android Advanced Protection plays with high risk users' experiences. I'm also super curious whether the spam/scam detection features may also be helpful to more vulnerable users (think: aging seniors)...
Niche but important:
Some users, esp. those that migrated to security & privacy-focused Android distros because of because of the absence of such a feature are clear candidates for it... But they may also voice privacy concerns around some of the screening features. Clear communication from the Google Security / Android team will be key here.

2025-05-17 22:46:33Bitcoin 101: The Ultimate Guide for Beginners. Unlock the Future of Finance
Bitcoin has revolutionized the way we think about money, offering a decentralized alternative to traditional banking. Whether you’re curious about investing, technology, or the future of finance, this guide will demystify Bitcoin and show you why it’s more than just “digital gold.” Let’s dive in and stick around for actionable tips to start your Bitcoin journey.
What is Bitcoin? Bitcoin is the world’s first decentralized digital currency. Created in 2009 by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto, it operates without banks, governments, or middlemen. Instead, it relies on a groundbreaking technology called blockchain which is a public ledger that records every transaction securely and transparently.
- Decentralization: No single entity controls Bitcoin. It’s maintained by a global network of computers.
- Scarcity: Only 21 million Bitcoins will ever exist, making it immune to inflation.
- Borderless: Send value anywhere in the world, instantly and at low cost.
How Does Bitcoin Work? The Blockchain Every Bitcoin transaction is grouped into a “block” and added to a chain of previous transactions (hence blockchain). This ledger is public, immutable, and verified by thousands of computers (nodes) worldwide.
Mining and Security Miners use powerful computers to solve complex puzzles, validating transactions and securing the network. In return, they earn newly minted Bitcoin, a process called proof-of-work. This system ensures trust without intermediaries.
Wallets To hold Bitcoin, you need a digital wallet. Each wallet has: - A public key (like an email address, shared to receive funds). - A private key (like a password, kept secret to authorize transactions).
Pro Tip: Never share your private key.
Why Bitcoin Has Value Bitcoin’s value stems from its unique properties: 1.Scarcity: With a fixed supply, it’s often called “digital gold.” 2.Decentralization: Resistant to censorship or seizure. 3.Utility: Fast, global transactions with minimal fees. 4.Adoption: Major companies like Tesla, PayPal, and Microsoft now accept Bitcoin.
In 2010, one Bitcoin was worth $0.08. Today, it’s valued at tens of thousands of dollars. While volatile, its long-term growth has outpaced traditional assets.
How to Get Started with Bitcoin 1.Choose a Wallet - Hardware wallets (e.g., Ledger, Trezor) for maximum security. - Mobile/desktop wallets (e.g., Exodus, Electrum) for convenience. - Avoid keeping crypto on exchanges long term.
2.Buy Bitcoin Use platforms like Coinbase, Binance, or Kraken to purchase Bitcoin with fiat currency.
3.Secure Your Investment - Enable two factor authentication (2FA). - Store backup phrases offline.
4.Use Bitcoin Spend it at merchants, hold it as savings, or explore decentralized finance (DeFi).
Debunking Bitcoin Myths 1.Bitcoin is for criminals. Less than 1% of transactions are illicit far lower than cash. Blockchain’s transparency actually aids law enforcement.
2.It’s a bubble. While volatile, Bitcoin has survived multiple “bubbles” and grown stronger, gaining institutional adoption.
3.It’s bad for the environment. Over 50% of Bitcoin mining now uses renewable energy. Compare this to the environmental cost of traditional banking.
The Future of Bitcoin Bitcoin is evolving rapidly: -Institutional adoption: Hedge funds, ETFs, and corporations are adding Bitcoin to their balance sheets. -Layer 2 solutions: The Lightning Network enables instant, near free micropayments. - Global regulation: Governments are crafting frameworks to integrate Bitcoin safely.
Ready to Go Deeper? Bitcoin is more than an investment. it’s a movement toward financial freedom. Whether you’re hodling for the long term or exploring blockchain tech, staying informed is key.
Follow my profile for advanced guides on: - Mastering blockchain technology. - Building a crypto portfolio. - Navigating market cycles like a pro.
The future of money is here. Don’t just watch from the sidelines be part of it.

2025-05-16 17:12:05One of the most common criticisms leveled against nostr is the perceived lack of assurance when it comes to data storage. Critics argue that without a centralized authority guaranteeing that all data is preserved, important information will be lost. They also claim that running a relay will become prohibitively expensive. While there is truth to these concerns, they miss the mark. The genius of nostr lies in its flexibility, resilience, and the way it harnesses human incentives to ensure data availability in practice.
A nostr relay is simply a server that holds cryptographically verifiable signed data and makes it available to others. Relays are simple, flexible, open, and require no permission to run. Critics are right that operating a relay attempting to store all nostr data will be costly. What they miss is that most will not run all encompassing archive relays. Nostr does not rely on massive archive relays. Instead, anyone can run a relay and choose to store whatever subset of data they want. This keeps costs low and operations flexible, making relay operation accessible to all sorts of individuals and entities with varying use cases.
Critics are correct that there is no ironclad guarantee that every piece of data will always be available. Unlike bitcoin where data permanence is baked into the system at a steep cost, nostr does not promise that every random note or meme will be preserved forever. That said, in practice, any data perceived as valuable by someone will likely be stored and distributed by multiple entities. If something matters to someone, they will keep a signed copy.
Nostr is the Streisand Effect in protocol form. The Streisand effect is when an attempt to suppress information backfires, causing it to spread even further. With nostr, anyone can broadcast signed data, anyone can store it, and anyone can distribute it. Try to censor something important? Good luck. The moment it catches attention, it will be stored on relays across the globe, copied, and shared by those who find it worth keeping. Data deemed important will be replicated across servers by individuals acting in their own interest.
Nostr’s distributed nature ensures that the system does not rely on a single point of failure or a corporate overlord. Instead, it leans on the collective will of its users. The result is a network where costs stay manageable, participation is open to all, and valuable verifiable data is stored and distributed forever.

2025-05-16 18:40:18Die zwei mächtigsten Krieger sind Geduld und Zeit. \ Leo Tolstoi
Zum Wohle unserer Gesundheit, unserer Leistungsfähigkeit und letztlich unseres Glücks ist es wichtig, die eigene Energie bewusst zu pflegen. Das gilt umso mehr für an gesellschaftlichen Themen interessierte, selbstbewusste und kritisch denkende Menschen. Denn für deren Wahrnehmung und Wohlbefinden waren und sind die rasanten, krisen- und propagandagefüllten letzten Jahre in Absurdistan eine harte Probe.
Nur wer regelmäßig Kraft tankt und Wege findet, mit den Herausforderungen umzugehen, kann eine solche Tortur überstehen, emotionale Erschöpfung vermeiden und trotz allem zufrieden sein. Dazu müssen wir erkunden, was uns Energie gibt und was sie uns raubt. Durch Selbstreflexion und Achtsamkeit finden wir sicher Dinge, die uns erfreuen und inspirieren, und andere, die uns eher stressen und belasten.
Die eigene Energie ist eng mit unserer körperlichen und mentalen Gesundheit verbunden. Methoden zur Förderung der körperlichen Gesundheit sind gut bekannt: eine ausgewogene Ernährung, regelmäßige Bewegung sowie ausreichend Schlaf und Erholung. Bei der nicht minder wichtigen emotionalen Balance wird es schon etwas komplizierter. Stress abzubauen, die eigenen Grenzen zu kennen oder solche zum Schutz zu setzen sowie die Konzentration auf Positives und Sinnvolles wären Ansätze.
Der emotionale ist auch der Bereich, über den «Energie-Räuber» bevorzugt attackieren. Das sind zum Beispiel Dinge wie Überforderung, Perfektionismus oder mangelhafte Kommunikation. Social Media gehören ganz sicher auch dazu. Sie stehlen uns nicht nur Zeit, sondern sind höchst manipulativ und erhöhen laut einer aktuellen Studie das Risiko für psychische Probleme wie Angstzustände und Depressionen.
Geben wir negativen oder gar bösen Menschen keine Macht über uns. Das Dauerfeuer der letzten Jahre mit Krisen, Konflikten und Gefahren sollte man zwar kennen, darf sich aber davon nicht runterziehen lassen. Das Ziel derartiger konzertierter Aktionen ist vor allem, unsere innere Stabilität zu zerstören, denn dann sind wir leichter zu steuern. Aber Geduld: Selbst vermeintliche «Sonnenköniginnen» wie EU-Kommissionspräsidentin von der Leyen fallen, wenn die Zeit reif ist.
Es ist wichtig, dass wir unsere ganz eigenen Bedürfnisse und Werte erkennen. Unsere Energiequellen müssen wir identifizieren und aktiv nutzen. Dazu gehören soziale Kontakte genauso wie zum Beispiel Hobbys und Leidenschaften. Umgeben wir uns mit Sinnhaftigkeit und lassen wir uns nicht die Energie rauben!
Mein Wahlspruch ist schon lange: «Was die Menschen wirklich bewegt, ist die Kultur.» Jetzt im Frühjahr beginnt hier in Andalusien die Zeit der «Ferias», jener traditionellen Volksfeste, die vor Lebensfreude sprudeln. Konzentrieren wir uns auf die schönen Dinge und auf unsere eigenen Talente – soziale Verbundenheit wird helfen, unsere innere Kraft zu stärken und zu bewahren.

2025-05-17 21:24:18The $400 Million Perk — Trump’s Airborne Throne The Qataris want to gift Donald Trump a $400 million Boeing 747-8. It’s not just any plane — it’s a flying palace, complete with two bedrooms, a private office, all business-class seating, and massive TVs. In other words, it’s the perfect airborne throne for a man who has never seen a golden toilet he didn’t like. And make no mistake, once Trump leaves the White House, that plane isn’t going to serve the American taxpayer — it’s going straight to his presidential library, where he can keep using it at our expense.
The cost to the American people? Hundreds of millions for conversion, maintenance, and operation as Air Force One. The cost to Trump? Zero.
The Emoluments Clause? Never Heard of It.
This brazen 747 deal is a direct violation of the Constitution’s emoluments clause, which explicitly bars U.S. officials from accepting gifts, payments, or other benefits from foreign governments without Congressional approval. That approval hasn’t been given. Trump is just grabbing what he wants — and so is his family.
Here are a few of their greatest hits:
- World Liberty Financial: Early in Trump’s term, the Trump family’s cryptocurrency firm took a $75 million investment from billionaire Justin Sun. Not long after, a federal fraud case against Sun quietly disappeared. Today, World Liberty Financial is selling “meme coins” featuring Trump and Melania, profiting directly from the Trump name.
- Qatar, Again: Trump’s family recently inked a $5.5 billion deal to build a beachfront resort in Qatar. The local partner? A company owned by the Qatari sovereign wealth fund, meaning Trump’s family is cutting deals directly with a foreign government.
- Affinity Partners: Days after Trump’s inauguration, his son, Donald Jr., announced plans for a major hotel in Belgrade, Serbia. The money for the project? It’s coming from Affinity Partners, a firm started by Trump’s son-in-law with funding from Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and, of course, Qatar.
- Social Media Cash Grab: Before taking office, Trump settled a lawsuit against the social media platform X, pocketing $10 million. In a bizarre twist, Trump then put X’s owner, Elon Musk, in charge of an ongoing effort to dismantle key government agencies.
- Pressure on Allies: According to British news outlet The Observer, Trump and his allies pressured British Prime Minister Keir Starmer to make a Trump-owned golf course the site of the 2028 British Open. That’s a deal worth millions in course fees and international prestige.
- Monetizing the First Lady: Before Trump took office, his family accepted $40 million from Amazon for the rights to produce and stream a documentary series about Melania Trump.
- Access for Sale: Trump is auctioning off face-to-face time at the White House. Past presidents may have given time to campaign backers, but Trump’s twist is that the money goes directly to his family, not to a campaign or political party.
- Pay-to-Play Networking: Trump has even founded a super-exclusive club, The Executive Branch, with a $500,000 initiation fee, offering access to a Georgetown clubhouse and, more importantly, to a prime network of influence-peddlers.
Time for a Reckoning
Democrats need to make it clear to these corrupt actors that the clock is ticking. The Qataris, Saudis, and other foreign governments cutting these shady deals should understand that they will face severe consequences when a new administration takes charge. Those luxury jets and billion-dollar beachfront resorts might seem like clever investments today, but they’ll come with a steep price when a real Justice Department comes knocking.
Speaking of the DOJ, Trump’s current legal shield is the ultra-MAGA loyalist Pam Bondi, who has turned the department into a personal law firm for Trump’s interests. Few in Washington know more about the flow of foreign cash than Bondi — after all, in her previous life as a private lawyer, she spent years representing the Qataris in DC.
So, there you have it. From the gift of a $400 million flying palace to a wait-listed private club, this is the Trump family’s top-ten corruption list. They’ve gotten away with it so far by exploiting loopholes and breaking the rules of decency that once separated American democracy from banana republics.
That won’t last. Not if we do our jobs.

2025-05-17 18:56:03Freedom and Responsibility: Two Sides of the Same Coin
Freedom is a powerful right that allows individuals to live according to their own beliefs and desires. However, with this power comes a necessary counterpart—responsibility. True freedom is not just about the ability to make choices; it is about being accountable for the consequences of those choices.
Understanding the Balance
Freedom without responsibility is chaos, while responsibility without freedom is oppression. For a society to function harmoniously, its members must understand that their actions impact others. Being free to speak, act, or create also means bearing the outcomes of those expressions—whether positive or negative.
The Role of Responsibility in Freedom
-
Accountability: True freedom means accepting the results of your decisions. When you choose freely, you must also take ownership of the impact those choices have.
-
Ethical Consideration: Freedom should be exercised with an understanding of how it affects others. Ethical responsibility ensures that our actions do not harm those around us.
-
Social Harmony: When individuals act responsibly, communities thrive. Freedom, balanced with respect and accountability, creates a space where innovation and cooperation flourish.
Why Both Are Necessary
Freedom and responsibility are interconnected. When one is ignored, the other is diminished. Societies that embrace both tend to be more just, equitable, and progressive. The path to true liberty is paved with conscious decisions and respect for others’ rights.
Moving Forward
To live freely is to live responsibly. This duality strengthens communities, fosters trust, and allows for true progress.
“Liberty means responsibility. That is why most men dread it.” — George Bernard Shaw
Embrace your freedom. Honor your responsibility.

2025-05-17 18:54:39Village people are real?
Let’s get that out of the way first. You may disbelieve it, but village people actually exist.
Mama G - village people personified.
If you are a Nigerian, at this point, you must have probably figured out that I’m not talking about physical people. I’m referring to that dark, maleficent force of resident evil that comes to strike you at your point of success. That unpleasant occurrence that puts all your efforts at serious risk . That unfortunate incident that seems to defy physical or logical explanation. Such as the aggravating malfunction of the internet by 11:57pm when you have a final year project to submit by 11:59 or your phone’s screen breaking just one week to examinations when all your materials are on the phone.
My Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Nigerian Concept of Village People.
Lots of people do not subscribe to it, believing instead that these things happen by chance. But the fact remains that History supports it, the Holy Bible supports it and even personal experience supports this concept. Let me show you.
The Bible says in Matthew 10:36 that “A man’s enemies are members of his own household.” You see? Village people😂.
Also, when Jesus came of age and started performing miracles and wonders, who were the first set of people to mock him and call him “carpenter’s son”? That’s right. Village people. In light of this evidence, I hope I’ve been able to convince and not confused you that village people exist.
My first task is done. I now proceed to the second one. It is not only Nigerians that have village people. Village people also exist in America. That’s shocking, isn’t it?😂 But it is true. Village People exist in America.
As a disco band. The band literally named “Village People” used to make music for young men in the 90’s. Their most popular song to date is “YMCA” (PS: you should check it out. Very nice track. Don’t say I didn’t do something for you this year) In fact, the band was so popular that one of their songs was mentioned in Despicable Me 2. So you see? America also has village people, and Nigeria is not alone in this mess. Thank God for companionship😌.
In other words, many times, the Nigeria government is usually the weapon fashioned against us.
Look at this scenario.
A man named Uche,after 7years of job-searching, is informed that as a last minute addition, he has been selected to proceed to the final stage of an interview with Gmail, dependent on whether he can make it to Lagos by 7am the following day for a physical test.
Check this out.
He cannot book a flight because flights are so expensive nowadays. So Mr.uche decides to brave it, and boards a night bus to Lagos. Halfway into the trip, he and other passengers are abducted along the lonely parts of the Lagos-Ibadan expressway and they are never seen again. Some “sympathizers” may attribute this to evil, diabolical enemies of the family who have sworn oaths against their progress, and as such, are attacking them at such a time when their son is finally about to get a job. But is that what it really is🤔? Isn’t this just an obvious failure by our government to do its job?
Summarily, let it be known that I am not doubting the existence of village people, and their diabolic powers. Not at all. Those people are mean. However, the next time you are tempted to blame them, first stop and ask yourself whether your current situation is not as a result of personal mistaken calculations, incompetence or governmental inefficiencies. Thanks for reading👽.

2025-05-13 04:18:45Nukleáris politika – 2025. május 12. | Szerző: David Dalton
Lengyelország és Franciaország nukleáris szerződést ír alá, Macron új építési szerződéseket céloz
Lengyelország és Franciaország olyan szerződést kötött, amely együttműködést irányoz elő a polgári nukleáris energia szektorban, miközben Párizs reménykedik abban, hogy Varsótól jövedelmező új atomerőmű-építési szerződéseket nyer el.
A szerződés közös tevékenységeket tartalmaz, amelyek célja a nukleáris energia előnyeinek kihasználása az európai ipar dekarbonizációja érdekében.
A két ország együtt kíván működni a nukleáris fűtőanyag-ellátás biztonságának megerősítésében is.
Európa szeretné kizárni Oroszországot a nukleáris fűtőanyag-piacáról, de az Euratom Ellátási Ügynökség (ESA) legfrissebb éves jelentése szerint 2023-ban nőtt az Oroszországból származó természetes urán szállítása, mivel az uniós szolgáltatók készleteket halmoztak fel az orosz tervezésű VVER atomerőművekhez.
Az ESA, amely az európai nukleáris anyagok rendszeres és méltányos ellátásáért felelős, közölte, hogy az uniós szolgáltatók tovább diverzifikálják nukleáris fűtőanyag-beszerzéseiket, különösen a VVER reaktorokhoz, hogy csökkentsék a „egy forrásból származó vagy magas kockázatú” ellátásoktól való függést.
„Majdnem minden olyan ország, amely orosz tervezésű reaktorokat üzemeltet, halad az alternatív fűtőanyagok engedélyeztetésében, és ígéretes fejlemények várhatók a közeljövőben” – közölte az ESA.
Az EU-ban jelenleg 19 VVER reaktor működik, köztük négy 1000 MW-os Bulgáriában és Csehországban, valamint tizenöt 440 MW-os Csehországban, Finnországban, Magyarországon és Szlovákiában.
A jelentések szerint a francia–lengyel nukleáris szerződés különösen fontos a francia állami EDF energetikai vállalat számára, amely még mindig reménykedik abban, hogy részt vehet Lengyelország ambiciózus atomerőmű-építési programjában, annak ellenére, hogy az első új építésű projekt tenderét az amerikai Westinghouse nyerte el Pomeránia északi tartományában.
Franciaország ambiciózus reaktorépítési tervei
Franciaország maga is nagyszabású nukleáris fejlesztési terveket dédelget: a kormány nemrégiben felkérte az EDF-et, hogy gyorsítsa fel a hat új generációs EPR2 atomerőmű megépítésének előkészítését.
Az EDF kezdetben három EPR2 párost tervez: az elsőt Penlyben, majd egyet-egyet a Gravelines-i atomerőmű telephelyén (Calais közelében), illetve vagy Bugey-ben (Lyon keleti részén), vagy Tricastinban (Lyon és Avignon közelében).
A nukleáris szerződés aláírását megelőzte egy másik szerződés is, amely a két szövetséges közötti kapcsolatok elmélyítését, valamint kölcsönös biztonsági garanciákat is tartalmaz háború esetére.
Donald Tusk lengyel miniszterelnök, aki Emmanuel Macron francia elnökkel együtt írta alá a biztonsági dokumentumot, „áttörésnek” nevezte a szerződést, kiemelve, hogy csak Németországnak van hasonló biztonsági paktuma Franciaországgal, és ez Lengyelországot „egyenrangú partnerként” helyezi nyugati szövetségesei közé.
Macron eközben úgy fogalmazott, hogy a szerződés „új korszakot nyit” nemcsak Lengyelország és Franciaország, hanem egész Európa számára. „Bresttől Krakkóig Európa együtt áll ki” – mondta a francia elnök.
Nukleáris politika – 2025. május 12. | Szerző: David Dalton
Trump csapata a nukleáris erőművek építésének felgyorsítását tervezi
A Trump-adminisztráció tisztviselői végrehajtási rendeleteket készítenek elő, amelyek célja az atomerőművek jóváhagyásának és építésének felgyorsítása az Egyesült Államokban – számolt be róla a sajtó.
Az erőfeszítés, amelyet egy kormányzati tisztviselő és más, az egyeztetéseket ismerő személyek írtak le, még folyamatban van. Az elnök még nem hagyta jóvá a tervezetet – mondta az egyik forrás, aki névtelenséget kért, mivel hivatalos bejelentés még nem történt. Az amerikai Axios hírportál és a New York Times is beszámolt az egyeztetésekről.
Trump és kormányának tisztviselői többször hangsúlyozták a bőséges, olcsó villamos energia fontosságát az energiaigényes mesterséges intelligencia ipar számára, amely segítheti az Egyesült Államokat abban, hogy megnyerje a feltörekvő technológia globális versenyét.
„Meg kell nyernünk az MI-versenyt, és ebben vezetnünk kell – ehhez pedig sokkal több energiára lesz szükség” – mondta Chris Wright energiaügyi miniszter múlt hónapban egy kabinetülésen Trump társaságában.
Az elnök már hivatalosan is energia-vészhelyzetet hirdetett, nemzeti és gazdasági biztonsági szempontokra hivatkozva annak érdekében, hogy gyorsítsa az erőművek, csővezetékek és elektromos távvezetékek építését az országban.
A szóban forgó tervezetek célokat tűznének ki az atomerőművek gyors országos építésére, illetve az amerikai nukleáris ipar vezető szerepének visszaállítására.
Legalább az egyik intézkedés a Nukleáris Szabályozási Bizottságnál (NRC) vezetne be változtatásokat, amelyek gyorsíthatják az erőműtervek, köztük az új kis moduláris reaktorok (SMR-ek) engedélyezését.
Wright nemrégiben úgy nyilatkozott, hogy az új reaktorblokkok építésének legnagyobb akadálya az Egyesült Államokban a szabályozás volt.
Az elképzelés részeként akár katonai létesítményekre is telepíthetnek majd atomerőműveket, valószínűleg mikroreaktorok vagy SMR-ek formájában.
Jelenleg az Egyesült Államokban nincs kereskedelmi atomerőmű építés alatt. Az utolsó két üzembe helyezett blokk a georgiai Vogtle-3 és Vogtle-4 volt, 2023-ban és 2024-ben.
Előrehaladott tervek vannak a michigani Palisades atomerőmű újraindítására. Ha megvalósul, ez lenne az első olyan, korábban leállított amerikai atomerőmű, amely ismét működésbe lép.

Vietnam és Oroszország tárgyalásokat kezd atomerőmű-építésről
Vietnam és Oroszország megállapodott abban, hogy tárgyalásokat folytatnak és szerződéseket írnak alá kereskedelmi atomerőművek építéséről Vietnamban – közölték a két ország egy közös nyilatkozatban.
„Az erőművek fejlesztése korszerű technológiával szigorúan megfelel majd a nukleáris és sugárbiztonsági előírásoknak, és a társadalmi-gazdasági fejlődést szolgálja” – áll a közleményben, amely a vietnami vezető, To Lam moszkvai látogatása után jelent meg.
Az orosz állami atomenergetikai vállalat, a Roszatom szerint a látogatás „az együttműködés új szakaszát” jelenti – egy nagy atomerőmű építését Délkelet-Ázsiában.
A Roszatom felajánlotta Vietnámnak a VVER-1200 nyomottvizes reaktor technológiáját, amelyből kettő már működik az oroszországi Novovoronyezs 2 atomerőműben, és kettő Fehéroroszországban.
A Roszatom közölte, hogy további tárgyalásokra van szükség a vietnami atomerőmű műszaki és pénzügyi feltételeinek tisztázásához, de hozzátette: „ezek a tárgyalások ma [május 10-én] megkezdődtek”.
A Roszatom arról is beszámolt, hogy Alekszej Lihacsov vezérigazgató és Nguyen Manh Hung vietnami tudományos és technológiai miniszter aláírt egy nukleáris energia ütemtervet.
Az ütemterv tartalmazza egy nukleáris tudományos és technológiai központ lehetséges megépítését, fűtőanyag-szállítást a dél-vietnami Dalat kutatóreaktorhoz, Vietnam részvételét Oroszország IV. generációs MBIR többcélú gyorsneutronos kutatóreaktor projektjében, valamint vietnami szakemberek képzését.
Vietnamnak jelenleg egy kutatóreaktora van Dalatban, és egy másik is tervben van. A Roszatom nem közölte, melyikre gondolt.
A múlt hónapban Vietnam elfogadta a nemzeti energiastratégia módosított változatát, amely 2030-ig 136 milliárd dollárt irányoz elő az energiaellátás hosszú távú biztonságának megerősítésére, és először szerepel benne az atomenergia.
Vietnam azt szeretné, ha első atomerőművei 2030 és 2035 között lépnének üzembe. A beépített nukleáris kapacitás várhatóan 4–6,4 GW lesz, ami körülbelül 4–6 nagy atomerőműnek felel meg.
A kormány szerint további 8 GW nukleáris kapacitás kerül majd a mixbe az évszázad közepéig.
Vietnam már 2009-ben is tervezett két atomerőművet, de a Nemzetgyűlés 2016-ban költségvetési okokból elutasította a javaslatot.
Új építések – 2025. május 12. | Szerző: David Dalton
Az NRC engedélyt adott az „energia-sziget” munkálatokra a TerraPower wyomingi atomerőművénél
Az Egyesült Államok Nukleáris Szabályozási Bizottsága (NRC) mentességet adott a TerraPower Natrium demonstrációs atomerőművének wyomingi Kemmererben, lehetővé téve a vállalat számára bizonyos „energia-sziget” tevékenységek folytatását, miközben a hatóságok tovább vizsgálják az építési engedély iránti kérelmet.
Az energia-sziget a tervezett Natrium atomerőműben a felesleges hő tárolására szolgál majd, hogy csúcsterhelés idején növelje az áramtermelést.
Az NRC szerint az energia-szigethez kapcsolódó bizonyos tevékenységek engedélyezése nem jelent indokolatlan kockázatot a közegészségre és biztonságra, és „különleges körülmények” állnak fenn.
A mentesség a létesítmények, rendszerek és komponensek korlátozott részére vonatkozik, lehetővé téve például cölöpverést, alapozást, vagy bizonyos szerkezetek, rendszerek és komponensek összeszerelését, gyártását, tesztelését korlátozott munkavégzési engedély nélkül.
Az NRC szerint a mentesség nem befolyásolja a reaktor építési engedélyéről szóló végső döntést. „Az NRC folytatja az építési engedély iránti kérelem vizsgálatát az egész projektre vonatkozóan” – áll a közleményben.
A Bill Gates által alapított TerraPower üdvözölte a döntést, hozzátéve, hogy a nukleáris reaktor és az energiatermelő létesítmények szétválasztása rövidebb építési időt és alacsonyabb anyagköltségeket tesz lehetővé.
Februárban az amerikai energiaügyi minisztérium befejezte a projekt előzetes tevékenységeire vonatkozó végső környezeti értékelést.
A TerraPower, amelyet Gates 2008-ban alapított, 2024 júniusában kezdte meg első kereskedelmi Natrium atomerőművének építését Kemmererben, ahol egy széntüzelésű erőmű zár be.
A Natrium demonstrációs projekt három különálló részből áll: egy nátrium teszt- és feltöltő létesítményből, az energiatermelő vagy energia-szigetből, valamint a nukleáris szigetből magával a reaktorral.
A kezdeti építkezés a teszt- és feltöltő létesítményre összpontosít, amely egy különálló, nem nukleáris épület, és a reaktor nátrium hűtőrendszerének tesztelésére szolgál. Itt történik a folyékony nátrium fogadása, mintavételezése, feldolgozása és tárolása, mielőtt a Natrium reaktorhoz kerülne.
Egyéb hírek
A lengyel atomerőmű-projekt biztosítási szerződéseket kötött
A lengyel Polskie Elektrownie Jądrowe (PEJ) atomerőmű-projekt vállalat négy biztosítási bróker céggel kötött keretmegállapodást. Az Aon Polska, GrECo Polska, Marsh és Smartt Re cégek támogatják a PEJ-t Lengyelország első kereskedelmi atomerőművének biztosítási szerződéseinek megkötésében, valamint a napi működéshez szükséges biztosítások beszerzésében. A PEJ minden brókerrel keretmegállapodást írt alá, amelyek alapján egyes biztosítási feladatokra kiválasztja a megfelelő brókert.
Az Aecon cég nyerte az ontariói SMR építési szerződését
A kanadai Aecon Kiewit Nuclear Partners nyerte el az Ontario Power Generation (OPG) által Darlingtonban építendő első kis moduláris reaktor (SMR) kivitelezési szerződését. A szerződés értéke 1,3 milliárd kanadai dollár (934 millió USD, 841 millió euró), amely projektmenedzsmentet, kivitelezési tervezést és végrehajtást foglal magában, a befejezést és a kereskedelmi üzemet 2030-ra tervezik. Ontario tartomány és az OPG múlt héten hagyta jóvá a négy SMR első darabjának 20,9 milliárd CAD értékű tervét Darlingtonban.
26 000 dolgozó a Hinkley Point C projekten a csúcskivitelezés idején
Az Egyesült Királyságban mintegy 26 000 dolgozó vesz részt a Hinkley Point C atomerőmű építésében, amely jelenleg csúcskivitelezési szakaszban van – derül ki az EDF Energy jelentéséből. Közvetlenül a projekten 18 000-en dolgoznak, ebből 12 000-en a helyszínen, további 3 000 fővel bővülhet a létszám a következő 12 hónapban. További 8 000-en a beszállítói láncban dolgoznak. A jelentés szerint a Hinkley Point C építése fontos katalizátor a gazdasági növekedésben, jelenleg 13,3 milliárd fonttal (15,7 milliárd euró, 17,5 milliárd dollár) járul hozzá a gazdasághoz. Ebből 5 milliárd fontot már a délnyugati régió beszállítóinál költöttek el – jóval meghaladva az 1,5 milliárd fontos célt. A Hinkley Point C két francia EPR reaktort kap.
Az Ansaldo Nucleare nukleáris mesterszakot indít Olaszországban
Az olasz Ansaldo Nucleare és a Politecnico di Milano vállalati mesterszakot indít, amely a nukleáris energia és kapcsolódó technológiák új szakértő generációját képzi. A képzés októberben indul, egy évig tart, 1500 órás, mérnöki, fizikai és kémiai diplomásoknak szól. Húsz résztvevőt választanak ki a következő hónapokban, akiket az Ansaldo Nucleare azonnal, határozatlan időre alkalmaz, és október elején kezdik meg a képzést.

2025-03-31 21:29:17Dutton Proposes Easing Home Loan Regulations
Summary:
Opposition Leader Peter Dutton plans to challenge the Albanese government by proposing changes to lending rules aimed at making it easier for first-time home buyers to access loans. The proposed adjustments include reducing serviceability buffers and addressing the treatment of HELP debt to improve housing access. Dutton argues that current regulations create a bias favoring inherited wealth, making it difficult for new buyers to enter the housing market. These proposals come as the Reserve Bank of Australia prepares for its upcoming interest rate decision, with the current cash rate target at 4.1% and predictions of a cut in May. Treasurer Jim Chalmers highlights the government's progress, noting falling inflation, rising real wages, and improving economic growth.

Australia's Housing Market Hits New Record High
Summary:
Australia's property prices reached a new peak in March, following a rate cut that enhanced buyer optimism. CoreLogic reported a 0.4% monthly increase, bringing the average national property price to A$820,331. All capital cities, except Hobart, experienced price gains, with Sydney and Melbourne rising by 0.3% and 0.5%, respectively. The rate cut slightly improved borrowing capacity and mortgage serviceability. However, the sustainability of this upward trend is uncertain due to persistent affordability issues. While the market rebounded with the February rate cut by the Reserve Bank of Australia, significant improvements in home loan serviceability are necessary for substantial market growth.

2025-05-17 18:31:44I’ll be honest—when I first tried running, I despised it. Every step felt like a punishment. My lungs burned, my legs screamed, and I’d glare at the clock, wondering why time crawled so slowly. I’d see people jogging effortlessly in the park, and it made me want to hurl my sneakers into the nearest bush. I told myself, “This isn’t for me.” But somehow, I kept going back
1.Why I Kept Going It started as a dare from a friend. She swore running would “change my life.” I rolled my eyes but laced up anyway. The first few weeks were torture. I’d shuffle along for 10 minutes, gasping, convincing myself I’d collapse. But then something shifted. I wasn’t fast or graceful, but I noticed I could go a little farther each time. That tiny progress hooked me. I wasn’t ready to admit it, but I started craving that feeling of pushing past what I thought I could do.
-
The Turning Point About a month in, I hit a breakthrough. One evening, I ran for 20 minutes straight—no walking, no stopping. The sun was setting, the air was cool, and for the first time, I felt strong instead of defeated.
-
My mind cleared. All the stress from work, the endless to-do lists—it melted away. I realized running wasn’t just about my body; it was saving my headspace too. That’s when I stopped hating it and started needing it.
4.What I Love About It Now Now, running is my therapy. I love the rhythm of my feet hitting the ground, the way my playlist syncs with my stride. It’s not about being the fastest or looking good—it’s mine. Some days, I run to sweat out a bad mood; others, I run just to feel alive. I’ve even signed up for a 5K, something I’d have laughed at a year ago. The workout I once dreaded has become my favorite because it taught me I’m tougher than I thought.
If there’s a workout you hate, give it a real shot. Not just once, but enough times to see if it clicks. It might not be running for you—maybe it’s yoga or lifting weights. Whatever it is, the thing you resist could end up being the thing you can’t live without.

2025-05-18 00:18:55In my lifetime, the only predictable thing about Chicagoland weather are its extremes. * Blizzards that can shut down highways even for a city equipped with hundreds of snowplows and millions of tons of road salt. * Torrential downpours that can eclipse 100yr storms and turn streets into rivers. * Blistering summer heat that can melt asphalt. * Howling winds that can uproot trees and make rain blow sideways across an 8 lane highway. * Let’s not forget the 2014 and 2019 polar vortexes that brought in -20F temps and -50F windchill (colder than Anchorage, AK at that time, trust me, I checked).
Most consumer tech would have called it quits. For example - My Kindle Oasis couldn’t even survive a period of non-use while resting peacefully inside a desk drawer. It bricked itself presumably because it couldn’t figure out how to handle a dead battery or maybe a corrupted OTA update. Note I purchased the 3x cost Oasis vs the standard Paperwhite because I presumed the kindle would be a no-nonsense piece of tech that would last for years to come.
The Vantage Vue was installed in 2012. It’s a wireless, solar powered station equipped with a sensor suite that monitors temperature, humidity, rainfall, wind speed and direction, all transmitted to an LCD console indoors. The purchase was as simple as possible. No account registration, no cloud services that require a subscription, no fuss.
Over its entire 13 year lifespan I only experienced 4 interruptions. Twice the internal battery failed and I simply went to the local hardware store to purchase a new one. Total cost of repair: $8. Then there were two instances where the pesky squirrels chewed through the wire that connects the anemometer to the station. I had an existing supply of solder and electrical tape on hand...problem fixed. Cost of repair: $0.
The Vantage Vue’s design is modular and accessible, with no proprietary nonsense locking me out of repairs. I didn’t need to send it to the manufacturer, pay exorbitant fees, navigate through an endless loop of phone support prompts, or buy a whole new unit because of a single damaged component.
Suppose I had not been technical enough, or too busy to repair it myself – I could have hired a local handyman in my community, shared a few laughs about the vandalizing vermin, offered him a homemade bottle of wine and a modest but meaningful fee for his repair. Then upon the return of those vandalice vermin, perhaps I would have learned something from his last repair and been able to fix it myself leaving me with a satisfying feeling of accomplishment... or also perhaps I would have just looked forward to opening up a new vintage.
The system could be fixed quickly and cheaply because it was designed with repair-ability in mind. Compare that to many modern devices, where glued-shut casings, locked down firmware, or unavailable spare parts force you replace rather than repair. My weather station’s longevity is proof that when manufacturers prioritize durability and user access, consumers win.
The Cost of Durability vs. Planned Obsolescence
I paid $500 for that station in 2012. Since 2012 I’ve purchased 4 popular consumer smartphones. Roughly costing a total somewhere between $3000 to $4000. That’s for devices that were each replaced within a few years of their purchase because the design and ecosystem pushed me toward replacement, not repair.
A Bitcoin Thought Experiment
Let’s imagine that original phone was modular and repairable. Let’s also imagine there was a functioning Bitcoin economy. If we’re imagining an established Bitcoin economy then we first need to imagine the irrelevance of the dollar.
The first phone would have cost, let’s say...10 BTC. With a limited supply of Bitcoin and no inflation to worry about, the entire world would be more conservative with their money and their debt issuance. Modular technological ecosystems would be in demand and there would be greater pressure on established corporations to create real innovations. True inventions, not just “innovative” profit schemes for shareholders. Technology would be more meaningful for everyone. Personal computing devices would be modular – offering local repairablity and ad-hoc upgradability, just like my Vantage Vue. Relative cost of repairs for that first phone would be more like that of my Vantage Vue.
Let’s Recall: * Original Purchase price of Vantage Vue: $500 * 2x Vantage Vue batteries: $8 * Soldering together chewed up wire: $0 * The feeling of satisfaction through exercising my abilities or learning new skills or staying connected with my local community: priceless
Relative cost of repair = 8/500 = 0.016
Now back to our imagined Bitcoin and #repairDontReplace economy.
- Cost of original smart phone: 10 BTC
- Expected cost to repair after 13 years = 10 * 0.016 = .16 BTC
That would leave me with 9.84 BTC which will always be worth the same 9.84 BTC as on the day I bought the first phone.
This is obviously a very, very imaginative scenario. Personal computing devices are more complex than a weather station. They do eventually require some kind of upgrade so that one can compute faster and store more data.but…Something tells me the entire world would have progressed much more meaningfully in the last 13 years if humans had more time to think creatively and not be worried about fighting inflation or beating the market. A lot of human ingenuity goes into algorithms that try to make imaginary numbers go up more than other people’s imaginary numbers.
This makes humans disconnected from their local communities. We become so concerned with maintaining a certain status that we might overlook those who are less-abled but still capable in delivering value to our collective consciousness. We might outsource very important responsibilities we owe to those members of our communities, thinking “it’s not our problem” or “we’re too busy”. It's the wrong mindset. It will lead to more disconnect, more chronic disease, more mental illness, more random acts of violence, and more children who outsource the final days of their loved ones to a nursing home.
Hmm - Maybe someone can build caregiving AI robots with strict centralized protocols reminiscent of those automated customer support calls we all love so much...
The long term cost is not easy to see but it’s clearly there, and we all must bear it. The Davis Vantage Vue weather station is more than a weather station. It’s a symbol of what technology can be when corporations respect their customers. It’s built to last, designed for repair, and doesn’t lock me into an endless cycle of replacement.
The #rightToRepair movement is about demanding more of this – products that we can fix ourselves with no artificial barriers. It’s about saving money, reducing waste, and taking control of things we own.
The Bitcoin thought experiment drives home a parallel point. A circular, community-first economy allows us to put our human ingenuity into the most important places. Gives us more time to care for our loved ones, and helps protect our communities from artificially induced societal pressures. Without those pressures we would grow more and outsource less. We would find value in those who seemingly can produce no value in today’s economy – and in turn we would collectively raise ourselves to a higher consciousness.

@ 0b118e40:4edc09cb
2025-05-15 15:40:21My week started off with a lovely message from a friend : “I often think about you. Especially during times when it requires me to be more resilient and have faith in myself. I always carry your note in the book you gave me, “what the dog saw” And it always gives me courage and I send a little prayer your way”.
This friend of mine was dealing with the undercurrent of discrimination in my alma mater when we first met, and I helped out. It's something anybody would have done, but surprisingly, nobody else showed up. We’ve stayed in touch over the years, and my friend went on to help a lot of other people along the way.
I don’t remember what I wrote in that note. It’s something I tend to do (write notes, give books, write notes in books). But the message boomeranged back to me at a time when I needed to hold the line. To keep the faith.
Most of us don’t talk about our struggles. And sometimes the smallest act, which could just be a kind word or a reminder of the person you are, can carry farther than we imagine.
On the act of giving
There’s a book called Give and Take by Adam Grant. I picked it up hoping to learn how to take, because it’s always been easier to give and harder to accept help. But what I learned was something else entirely.
Grant studied over 30,000 people across different companies and grouped them into three types: * Givers * Matchers * Takers
Based on his studies, givers often finish last... They struggle the most. They burn out. They get overlooked. They’re too trusting.
But oddly, they also rise to the very top.
Matchers are the scorekeepers, the “I’ll help you if you help me” kind. They make up most of the population. The fascinating thing about tit-for-tat is that if someone’s kind, they reciprocate. But if someone acts like a jerk, they return the energy, and over time, it becomes a pool of spoiled milk. Matchers are a lukewarm, forgettable kind of network.
Takers are the ones chasing attention, always aligning themselves with whoever looks powerful. They tend to float toward status and soak up what they can. But they often portray themselves as kind and giving.
One example Grant shared was Enron's Kenneth Lay, who was at the center of one of the biggest corporate scandals in U.S. history. He hung around wherever he’d get seen or validated. He funded both Bush and Clinton, hedging his bets on who might win by securing proximity. Sadly, when Enron crumbled, he died of a heart attack before his prison sentencing.
Most people steer clear from takers because they are just exhausting. And takers often collapse under the weight of their own games.
But takers aren’t the lowest performers. That spot belongs to a certain kind of giver—the self-neglecting kind. The ones with no boundaries, no clarity, and no self-awareness. They give in to avoid conflict, to feel worthy, or because they don’t know how to say no. And when life breaks them, they point fingers.
Then there’s the other kind of giver. The ones who build trust and build people up without asking for a receipt.
These givers: 1. Give without expectation, from a place of purpose 2. Build and uplift others without seeking credit 3. Set boundaries and walk away when giving turns into draining
This group of givers rarely talk much about what they do for others. But when you hear about it or see it, it stays with you. It makes you want to show up a little better.
Why open source environments feels like home
The more I thought about it, the more I saw how deeply open source reflects that kind of giving that ends up right at the top.
In open source, you don’t last if it’s just about ego. You can’t fake it. There are no titles, no awards. You either show up to build and help, or you don’t.
People who give without needing to be seen are the ones the community leans on. You can tell when someone’s pretending to care. It’s in their tone, their urgency and their sense of transaction. The genuine ones don’t need to brand themselves as generous. They just are.
Open source works because giving is the default setting. The work speaks volumes and generosity compounds. The system filters for people who show up with purpose and stay consistent.
It’s also why the ones who whine, posture, or manipulate rarely last. They might call themselves givers, but they’re not fooling anyone who’s actually doing the work.
Adam Grant found that for giver cultures to thrive, takers have to be removed. They need to be pruned. Because takers poison the well. They drain givers, shift the culture from contribution to calculation, and unravel the trust that holds open systems together.
When hope boomerangs
That note is something I don’t remember writing. But it found its way back to me, and it was a good reminder to take my own advice and keep the faith.
And maybe that’s the point.
You do a small thing. And years later, it circles back when it matters most. Not because you expected it. But because you mattered.
According to Grant, givers do best when they combine generosity with grit and strategy. They create networks built on goodwill, which eventually open doors others don’t even know exist.
So if you’re wondering where I’m going with this, do something genuinely kind for someone today. Even if it’s as simple as sending a kind note. Not for you to be seen or heard. And not for you to keep scores.
But, just because.

2025-05-15 15:31:45Capitalism is the most effective system for scaling innovation. The pursuit of profit is an incredibly powerful human incentive. Most major improvements to human society and quality of life have resulted from this base incentive. Market competition often results in the best outcomes for all.
That said, some projects can never be monetized. They are open in nature and a business model would centralize control. Open protocols like bitcoin and nostr are not owned by anyone and if they were it would destroy the key value propositions they provide. No single entity can or should control their use. Anyone can build on them without permission.
As a result, open protocols must depend on donation based grant funding from the people and organizations that rely on them. This model works but it is slow and uncertain, a grind where sustainability is never fully reached but rather constantly sought. As someone who has been incredibly active in the open source grant funding space, I do not think people truly appreciate how difficult it is to raise charitable money and deploy it efficiently.
Projects that can be monetized should be. Profitability is a super power. When a business can generate revenue, it taps into a self sustaining cycle. Profit fuels growth and development while providing projects independence and agency. This flywheel effect is why companies like Google, Amazon, and Apple have scaled to global dominance. The profit incentive aligns human effort with efficiency. Businesses must innovate, cut waste, and deliver value to survive.
Contrast this with non monetized projects. Without profit, they lean on external support, which can dry up or shift with donor priorities. A profit driven model, on the other hand, is inherently leaner and more adaptable. It is not charity but survival. When survival is tied to delivering what people want, scale follows naturally.
The real magic happens when profitable, sustainable businesses are built on top of open protocols and software. Consider the many startups building on open source software stacks, such as Start9, Mempool, and Primal, offering premium services on top of the open source software they build out and maintain. Think of companies like Block or Strike, which leverage bitcoin’s open protocol to offer their services on top. These businesses amplify the open software and protocols they build on, driving adoption and improvement at a pace donations alone could never match.
When you combine open software and protocols with profit driven business the result are lean, sustainable companies that grow faster and serve more people than either could alone. Bitcoin’s network, for instance, benefits from businesses that profit off its existence, while nostr will expand as developers monetize apps built on the protocol.
Capitalism scales best because competition results in efficiency. Donation funded protocols and software lay the groundwork, while market driven businesses build on top. The profit incentive acts as a filter, ensuring resources flow to what works, while open systems keep the playing field accessible, empowering users and builders. Together, they create a flywheel of innovation, growth, and global benefit.

2025-05-17 22:59:45Antes de tudo, eu comecei trabalhando no bob's. Aos 16 anos de idade. E, em 2009 eu recebi meu primeiro contracheque: R$313. Quando vi quanto ia receber depois ter trabalhado um mês inteiro. Fiquei bem chateado… Trabalhei bastante viu.
Mas, não desanimei e segui em frente. Eu trabalhava em shopping e eu tive a ideia de ir na leitura e começa a aprender sobre como ganhar dinheiro. Perguntei ao vendedor o que precisava ler para conseguir sucesso no trabalho. Bizarro que ele me recomendou a Arte da Guerra, do Sun Tzu (tenho ele até hoje). Se fosse, hoje em dia. Era livro de coach facilmente!
Li esse livro, no próximo mês comprei outro e assim foi. Me dediquei no trabalho. Fui promovido e promovido novamente. Gerente com 18 anos. Saí desse trabalho arrumei outro, me dediquei e fui promovido. Promovido de novo e de novo. Gerente com 21 anos. Saí desse e fui gerente em mais 3 trabalhos.
Não satisfeito com tudo que tinha conseguido. Decidi começar a estudar sobre investimentos e fiz muita coisa: Investi na bolsa de valores, forex, opções binárias, criptomoedas e futuros. Enfim, no final. O que funcionou para mim, foi simplesmente ganhar o salário. Pegar 10% e investir e focar no trampo.
Eu não queria dica, saber de cotação e nem nada. Só queria focar no trabalho, continuar estudando e bora. E, deu certo galera! Fiz uma grana boa com investimentos. Fui para europa e viajei por vários países sozinho. Por quase dois meses completo. Voltei pro Br e continuei ralando.
Estudei inglês e tentei vários negócios diferentes: Marca de roupa, organizei festas e eventos, quase entrei em uma sociedade comprando taxi (essa foi Deus que salvou), vendi cabo de iphone na pandemia, vendi doce online (dps da pandemia) e mais coisas que nem lembro.
Enfim, há 2 anos resolvi trocar de ofício e parar de tentar coisas porque precisava do dinheiro. Mas, dessa vez focar tudo o que eu tinha nisso. E, escolhi o curso de desenvolvimento de sistemas, do Senac. Aos trancos e barrancos me formei. Consegui trabalho e hoje criei meu próprio negócio.
Se conselho fosse bom, ninguém dava. Vendia. Mas, quero deixar uma mensagem para vocês aí. Eu sei que é dificil. Sei que o Brasil é dificil. É como nada contra a maré.
Mas, se vocês acreditarem em si mesmos. Tiverem persistência e perseverar. Cedo ou tarde, você vai ter o que merece. De alguma forma, você consegue a grana que almeja. Mas, leva tempo mesmo.
Eu tentei resumi ao máximo minha trajetória de 2009 para cá. Não tenho uma vida luxuosa, mas sou muito feliz com tudo o que consegui e o mais importante é que tenho paz em todos os sentidos. Você não tem que ser igual a nenhum influencer, jogador ou celebridade. Você precisa ser a melhor versão que puder de si mesmo. Compare você de ontem vs você de hoje e tenho certeza que verá progresso diariamente.
No fim, fico muito feliz de relembrar tudo isso e de alguma forma dar um gás em quem está no corre agora. Sair de R$313 para R$10k/mês foi difícil demais. Mas, valeu a pena. Já ralei +60 horas por semana, descarreguei 2 tonelada de mercadoria com um carrinho sozinho, virei madrugadas, fiz entrega de bike e vendi doce na rua.
Se alguém estiver em uma fase que precise de uma luz e quiser trocar uma ideia. Chama na DM. Vai no meu perfil que o Ouro está lá.

@ 3c389c8f:7a2eff7f
2025-03-31 20:38:23You might see these terms used interchangeably throughout the Nostr network. Since Nostr is a decentralized protocol and not a platform, there is often a lack of consensus around particular terminologies. At times, it's important to differentiate between them, so that you can determine what is being stated. In the truest sense, there is no central entity to maintain a Nostr 'account' on your behalf, though some Nostr-based platforms may offer to do so. There's also no one to verify your 'identity'. This is something that you create, maintain and control. It is 100% yours. In a sense, you verify yourself through your interactions with others, with the network of clients and relays, and by protecting your nsec (secret key). A profile is generally considered to be a single place for displaying your content and any information about yourself that you've chosen to share, but its a little more complicated than that with Nostr. Let's take a closer look at all 3 terms:
Identity:
Your Nostr identity becomes yours from the moment you generate your key pair. The two parts each provide unique perspective and functionality. (Remember, there is no central entity to issue these key pairs. You can screw up and start over. You can maintain multiple key pairs for different purposes. If all of this is new and unfamiliar, start simply with the intention of trial and error.)
Half of the equation is your nsec. As long as you maintain control of that secret key, the identity is yours. You will use it to sign the notes and events that you create on Nostr. You will use it to access functionality of various tools and apps. You can use it to send monetary tips for content you find valuable. The reputation that you build through posting & interacting on Nostr will signal to others what type of person or profile this is, whether it's a genuine person, a bot (good or bad), a collection of works, etc. You might come across information that compares your nsec to a password. While a fair comparison, its important to remember that passwords can be reset, but your private key CANNOT. Lost access or control of your nsec means a loss of control over that identity. When you have decided to establish a more permanent identity, write it down, keep it safe, and use the appropriate security tools for interacting online.
The other half of this equation is your npub. This public key is used to find and display your notes and events to others. In short, your npub is how your identity is viewed by others and your nsec is how you control that identity.
Npub can also act a window into your world for whoever may choose to view it. As mentioned in a previous entry, npub login enables viewing Nostr's notes and other stuff in a read-only mode of any user's follow feed. Clients may or may not support this, some will even allow you to view and subscribe to these feeds while signed in as yourself via this function. It the basis of the metadata for your profile, too.
Profile:
Profile, in general, is a collection of things about you, which you have chosen to share. This might include your bio, chosen display name, other contact information, and a profile photo. Similar to traditional socials, veiwing Nostr profiles often includes a feed of the things you have posted and shared displayed as a single page. People will recognize you based on the aspects of your profile more than they will by your actual identity since an npub is a prefixed random string of characters . Your npub bridges a gap between strictly machine readable data and your human readable name, but it is not as simple as a name and picture. You will choose your photo and display name for your profile as you see fit, making you recognizable. These aspects are easy for copycat scammers to leverage, so your npub will help your friends and followers to verify that you are you, in the event that someone should try to copy your profile.
The Nostr protocol has another profile aspect that is important to know about, but as a general user, you shouldn't have to worry much about it. This is your nprofile. It combines your npub (or the machine readable hex verison of it) with hints to what relays you are using to publish your notes. This helps clients, crawlers, and relays find your stuff for your followers. You may notice nprofile when you share a profile link or used in other actions. When you update your relay list, your client will adjust your nprofile and send a new copy to the appropriate relays. If your believe that a client is not doing that correctly, you can visit metadata.nostr.com and manage it yourself.
Account:
Across Nostr, it is common to see the term 'account' used to refer to the combination of your identity and profile. It is a relatable term, though it may imply that some account issuer exists, but no one issues a Nostr account to you. You create and maintain it yourself.
There are situations where a traditional account will exist, such as with media servers, relay subscriptions, custodial wallet hosts, or NIP-05 providers. These things will almost always be paid services and storage that you choose to use. (Reminder: all of these things are possible to DIY with a little knowhow and an old computer)
What Is The Right Terminology?
There is no simple or correct answer here. Developers and writers will use whatever terms fit their scope and topic. Context will matter, so it's important to differentiate by that more than any actual term.

2025-03-31 20:14:31Olá, nostrilianos!
O tema de hoje é inteligência artificial (IA), com foco em duas ferramentas que têm se destacado no mercado por sua capacidade de responder perguntas, auxiliar em tarefas e, em alguns casos, até gerar imagens.
Essas tecnologias estão cada vez mais presentes no dia a dia, ajudando desde a correção de textos até pesquisas rápidas e a criação de imagens personalizadas com base em prompts específicos.
Nesse cenário em expansão, duas IAs se sobressaem: o ChatGPT, desenvolvido pela OpenAI, e o Grok, criado pela xAI.
Ambas são ferramentas poderosas, cada uma com seus pontos fortes e limitações, e têm conquistado usuários ao redor do mundo. Neste artigo, compartilho minhas impressões sobre essas duas IAs, baseadas em minha experiência pessoal, destacando suas diferenças e vantagens.
Grok: Destaque na criação de imagens e fontes
O Grok me impressiona especialmente em dois aspectos.
Primeiro, sua capacidade de gerar imagens é um diferencial significativo. Enquanto o ChatGPT tem limitações nesse quesito, o Grok oferece uma funcionalidade mais robusta para criar visuais únicos a partir de prompts, o que pode ser uma vantagem para quem busca criatividade visual.
Segundo, o Grok frequentemente cita fontes ou indica a origem das informações que fornece, o que agrega credibilidade às suas respostas e facilita a verificação dos dados.
ChatGPT: Assertividade e clareza
Por outro lado, o ChatGPT se destaca pela assertividade e pela clareza em suas explicações. Suas respostas tendem a ser mais diretas e concisas, o que é ideal para quem busca soluções rápidas ou explicações objetivas.
Acredito que essa vantagem possa estar ligada ao fato de o ChatGPT estar em operação há mais tempo, tendo passado por anos de aprimoramento e ajustes com base em interações de usuários.Comparação e reflexões.
Em minha experiência, o Grok supera o ChatGPT na geração de imagens e na citação de fontes, enquanto o ChatGPT leva a melhor em precisão e simplicidade nas respostas.
Esses pontos refletem não apenas as prioridades de design de cada IA, mas também o tempo de desenvolvimento e os objetivos de suas respectivas empresas criadoras.
A OpenAI, por trás do ChatGPT, focou em refinamento conversacional, enquanto a xAI, com o Grok, parece investir em funcionalidades adicionais, como a criação de conteúdo visual.
Minha opinião
Não há um vencedor absoluto entre Grok e ChatGPT – a escolha depende do que você precisa. Se seu foco é geração de imagens ou rastreamento de fontes, o Grok pode ser a melhor opção. Se busca respostas rápidas e assertivas, o ChatGPT provavelmente atenderá melhor.
Ambas as IAs são ferramentas incríveis, e o mais fascinante é ver como elas continuam evoluindo, moldando o futuro da interação entre humanos e máquinas.

2025-05-16 07:51:08Payjoin allows the sender and receiver of an on-chain payment to collaborate and create a transaction that breaks on-chain heuristics, allowing a more private transaction with ambiguous payment amount and UTXO ownership. Additionally, it can also be used for UTXO consolidation (receiver saves future fees) and batching payments (receiver can make payment(s) of their own in the process of receiving one), also known as transaction cut-through. Other than improved privacy, the rest of the benefits are typically applicable to the receiver, not the sender.
BIP-78 was the original payjoin protocol that required the receiver to run a endpoint/server (always online) in order to mediate the payjoin process. Payjoin adoption has remained pretty low, something attributed to the server & perpetual online-ness requirement. This is the motivation for payjoin v2.
The purpose of the one-pager is to analyse the protocol, and highlight the UX issues or tradeoffs it entails, so that the payjoin user flows can be appropriately designed and the tradeoffs likewise communicated. A further document on UX solutions might be needed to identify solutions and opportunities
The following observations are generally limited to individual users transacting through their mobile devices:
While users naturally want better privacy and fee-savings, they also want to minimise friction and minimise (optimise) payment time. These are universal and more immediate needs since they deal with the user experience.
Added manual steps
TL;DR v2 payjoin eliminates server & simultaneous user-liveness requirements (increasing TAM, and opportunities to payjoin, as a result) by adding manual steps.
Usually, the extent of the receiver's involvement in the transaction process is limited to sharing their address with the sender. Once they share the address/URI, they can basically forget about it. In the target scenario for v2 payjoin, the receiver must come online again (except they have no way of knowing "when") to contribute input(s) and sign the PSBT. This can be unexpected, unintuitive and a bit of a hassle.
Usually (and even with payjoin v1), the sender crafts and broadcasts the transaction in one go; meaning the user's job is done within a few seconds/minutes. With payjoin v2, they must share the original-PSBT with the receiver, and then wait for them to do their part. Once the the receiver has done that, the sender must come online to review the transaction, sign it & broadcast.
In summary,
In payjoin v1, step 3 is automated and instant, so delay 2, 3 =~ 0. As the user experiences it, the process is completed in a single session, akin to a non-payjoin transaction.
With payjoin v2, Steps 2 & 3 in the above diagram are widely spread and noticeable. These manual steps are separated by uncertain delays (more on that below) when compared to a non-payjoin transaction.
Delays
We've established that both senders and receivers must take extra manual steps to execute a payoin transaction. With payjoin v2, this process gets split into multiple sessions, since the sender and receiver are not like to be online simultaneously.
Delay 2 & 3 (see diagram above) are uncertain in nature. Most users do not open their bitcoin wallets for days or weeks! The receiver must come online before the timeout hits in order for the payjoin process to work, otherwise time is just wasted with no benefit. UX or technical solutions are needed to minimise these delays.
Delays might be exacerbated if the setup is based on hardware wallet and/or uses multisig.
Notifications or background processes
There is one major problem when we say "the user must come online to..." but in reality the user has no way of knowing there is a payjoin PSBT waiting for them. After a PSBT is sent to the relay, the opposite user would only find out about it whenever they happen to come online. Notifications and background sync processes might be necessary to minimise delays. This is absolutely essential to avert timeouts in addition to saving valuable time. Another risk is phantom payjoin stuff after the timeout is expired if receiver-side does not know it has.
Fee Savings
The following observations might be generally applicable for both original and this v2 payjoin version. Fee-savings with payjoin is a tricky topic. Of course, overall a payjoin transaction is always cheaper than 2 separate transactions, since they get to share the overhead.
Additionally, without the receiver contributing to fees, the chosen fee rate of the PSBT (at the beginning) drops, and can lead to slower confirmation. From another perspective, a sender paying with payjoin pays higher fees for similar confirmation target. This has been observed in a production wallet years back. Given that total transaction time can extend to days, the fee environment itself might change, and all this must be considered when designing the UX.
Of course, there is nothing stopping the receiver from contributing to fees, but this idea is likely entirely novel to the bitcoin ecosystem (perhaps payments ecosystem in general) and the user base. Additionally, nominally it involves the user paying fees and tolerating delays just to receive bitcoin. Without explicit incentives/features that encourage receivers to participate, payjoining might seem like an unncessary hassle.
Overall, it seems that payjoin makes UX significant tradeoffs for important privacy (and potential fee-saving) benefits. This means that the UX might have to do significant heavy-lifting, to ensure that users are not surprised, confused or frustrated when they try to transact on-chain in a privacy-friendly feature. Good, timely communication, new features for consolidation & txn-cutthrough and guided user flows seem crucial to ensure payjoin adoption and for help make on-chain privacy a reality for users.

2025-05-16 05:38:28LegoGPT generates a LEGO structure from a user-provided text prompt in an end-to-end manner. Notably, our generated LEGO structure is physically stable and buildable.
Lego is something most of us knows. This is a opportuity to ask where is our creativity going? From the art of crafting figures to building blocks following our need and desires to have a machine thinking and building following step-by-step instructions to achieve an isolated goal.
Is the creative act then in the question itself, not anymore in the crafting? Are we just delegating the solution of problems, the thinking of how to respond to questions, to machines? Would it be different if delegated to other people?

2025-05-17 14:47:24People often argue that money can not buy everything!. But after a great research and analysis, I can bold say that money is capable of buying anything, it only depends on the figures mentioned.
Is this contexts, we will see how money buy power and the types of power money can buy.
Money can be seen as a form of power, enabling individuals or groups to exert influence and control over various aspects of society. It's often said that "money is power," suggesting a direct correlation between wealth and influence. This relationship can be seen in various ways, including political influence, social standing, and the ability to shape economic outcomes.
broad sense, money can be seen as a tool that can provide individuals with power in various aspects of life. This power manifests in different ways, including the ability to access resources, influence decisions, and control situations.
Here are ways money buy power. Economic Power: Money allows individuals to purchase goods and services, access financial resources, and invest in ventures, giving them a degree of economic control.
Social Power: Wealth can influence social status, network, and access to social circles, enabling individuals to exert social power. Political Power:
Money can be used to support political campaigns, influence elections, and lobby for specific policies, impacting political decisions. Relational Power: In some relationships, money can be used to influence decisions or establish a dynamic where one party has more control.
Examples of how money can buy power: Buying access to resources: Money allows individuals to access essential resources like healthcare, education, and housing, granting them a degree of control over their circumstances.
Influencing decisions: Financial contributions to political campaigns or lobbying efforts can influence policy decisions and legislation.
Creating opportunities: Money can be used to invest in businesses, create employment, and establish social networks, giving individuals a degree of influence in various areas.
Money 💰 makes life good

2025-03-31 19:20:39Bitcoin transaction fees might seem confusing, but don’t worry—I’ll break it down step by step in a simple way. 🚀
Unlike traditional bank fees, Bitcoin fees aren’t fixed. Instead, they depend on: ✔️ Transaction size (in bytes, not BTC!) ✔️ Network demand (more traffic = higher fees) ✔️ Fee rate (measured in satoshis per byte)
Let’s dive in! 👇
📌 Why Do Bitcoin Transactions Have Fees? Bitcoin miners process transactions and add them to the blockchain. Fees serve three key purposes:
🔹 Incentivize Miners – They receive fees + block rewards. 🔹 Prevent Spam – Stops the network from being flooded. 🔹 Prioritize Transactions – Higher fees = faster confirmations.
💰 How Are Bitcoin Fees Calculated? Bitcoin fees are not based on the amount of BTC you send. Instead, they depend on how much space your transaction takes up in a block.
🧩 1️⃣ Transaction Size (Bytes, Not BTC!) Bitcoin transactions vary in size (measured in bytes).
More inputs and outputs = larger transactions.
Larger transactions take up more block space, meaning higher fees.
📊 2️⃣ Fee Rate (Sats Per Byte) Fees are measured in satoshis per byte (sat/vB).
You set your own fee based on how fast you want the transaction confirmed.
When demand is high, fees rise as users compete for block space.
⚡ 3️⃣ Network Demand If the network is busy, miners prioritize transactions with higher fees.
Low-fee transactions may take hours or even days to confirm.
🔢 Example: Calculating a Bitcoin Transaction Fee Let’s say: 📦 Your transaction is 250 bytes. 💲 The current fee rate is 50 sat/vB.
Formula: 🖩 Transaction Fee = Size × Fee Rate = 250 bytes × 50 sat/vB = 12,500 satoshis (0.000125 BTC)
💡 If 1 BTC = $60,000, the fee would be: 0.000125 BTC × $60,000 = $7.50
🚀 How to Lower Bitcoin Fees? Want to save on fees? Try these tips:
🔹 Use SegWit Addresses – Reduces transaction size! 🔹 Batch Transactions – Combine multiple payments into one. 🔹 Wait for Low Traffic – Fees fluctuate based on demand. 🔹 Use the Lightning Network – Near-zero fees for small payments.
🏁 Final Thoughts Bitcoin fees aren’t fixed—they depend on transaction size, fee rate, and network demand. By understanding how fees work, you can save money and optimize your transactions!

2025-05-14 06:48:45Has the architect Greg Chasen considered it when rebuilding the house just one year before the catastrophe? Apparently not! Another of his projects was featured on the Value of Architecture as properties with design integrity.
This is a super interesting subject. The historic character, livability, and modern disaster-resistance is a triangle where you often have to pick just one or two, which leads to some tough decisions that have major impacts on families and communities. Like one of the things he mentions is that the architect completely eliminated plants from the property. That's great for fire resistance, but not so great for other things if the entire town decides to go the same route (which he does bring up later in the video). I don't think there's any objectively right answer, but definitely lots of good (and important) discussion points to be had.

ความคิดก็เหมือนกันนะ อารมณ์ก็เหมือนกัน โดยเฉพาะความคิดนี่เป็นบ่าวที่ดี เป็นนายที่เลว ถ้าเราปล่อยให้มันเป็นนายเมื่อไร เรากินไม่ได้นอนไม่หลับ ต้องไปทะเลาะเบาะแว้งกับผู้คน เพราะว่าเขาคิดไม่เหมือนเรา เขาคิดต่างจากเรา หรือคิดต่างจากสิ่งที่อยู่ในหัวของเรา บางทีก็ฆ่ากันเพราะความคิดที่ต่างกัน ฆ่าเพื่อปกป้องความคิดที่อยู่ในหัวของเรา
อารมณ์ก็เหมือนกัน ถ้าเราไม่รู้ทันอารมณ์ เราก็จะตกเป็นทาสของมัน ปล่อยให้มันบงการ ไม่ว่าจะเป็นความโกรธ ความเศร้า เวลาเศร้านี่ ความเศร้ามันก็จะหลอกให้เราเศร้าไปเรื่อย สรรหาเหตุผลมากมายว่าเราควรเศร้า เพราะถ้าเราไม่เศร้าแสดงว่าเราไม่รักเขา ถ้าเรารักเขาเราต้องเศร้า ต้องเศร้าไปเรื่อยๆ ถ้าหายเศร้าเมื่อไรแสดงว่าไม่รักเขา ไม่ว่าคนนั้นจะเป็นพ่อ แม่ หรือลูก มันก็หลอกให้เราจมอยู่ในความเศร้า ดำดิ่งอยู่ในความเศร้า จนกระทั่งกลายเป็นโรคซึมเศร้าไปเลย
หรือความโกรธก็เหมือนกัน มันก็จะหลอกจะล่อ สรรหาเหตุผลให้เราโกรธ เพื่อความถูกต้อง เพื่อจะได้สั่งสอนมัน ไม่ให้มันทำสิ่งที่ไม่ถูกต้องต่อไป ฉะนั้นเนี่ย ไม่ใช่โกรธอย่างเดียว ต้องจัดการด้วย
คนเราถ้าไม่รู้ทันความคิด ไม่รู้ทันอารมณ์ มันก็สามารถสร้างทุกข์ให้กับตัวเองได้ และสิ่งที่ต้องการคือความสงบนี่ มันก็จะเกิดขึ้นไม่ได้เลย การภาวนานี่ คนส่วนใหญ่ก็ปรารถนาแต่ความสงบ สงบที่เขาเข้าใจคือไม่คิดอะไร แล้วก็ไปห้ามความคิดหรือไปกดข่มอารมณ์ด้วย มันมีความคิดก็กดมันเอาไว้ มันมีอารมณ์เกิดขึ้นก็กดมันเอาไว้ เพราะคิดว่านี่มันจะทำให้ตัวเองสงบ
แต่ที่จริงแล้ว สิ่งที่ดีกว่าก็คือ “การเห็น” เห็นความคิดและอารมณ์ ซึ่งจะเห็น หรือรู้ทันมันได้ ก็ต้องยอมให้มันเกิดขึ้น อนุญาตให้มันเกิดขึ้น ไม่กดข่มมัน ใหม่ๆ ก็ไม่เห็นนะ พอมันเกิดขึ้นทีไร มันก็ครองใจเราทันที เรียกว่า “เข้าไปเป็น”
แต่ต่อไปนี่เราฝึกการเห็นบ่อยๆ ฝึกเห็นบ่อยๆ มันก็จะเห็นได้เร็วขึ้น แล้วมันก็จะเข้าไปเป็นน้อยลง พอเห็นเมื่อไรนะ มันก็จะครองใจเราไม่ได้ และนี่ก็คือการค้นพบที่สำคัญเลย เพราะมันหมายถึงการที่เราสามารถ จะเป็นอิสระจากความคิดและอารมณ์ได้.

2025-05-12 01:34:24สวัสดีค่ะเพื่อนๆ นักเทรดที่น่ารักทุกคน! 💕 Lina Engword กลับมาพร้อมกับการวิเคราะห์ BTCUSDT.P แบบเจาะลึกเพื่อเตรียมพร้อมสำหรับเทรดวันนี้ค่ะ! 🚀
วันนี้ 12 พฤษภาคม 2568 เวลา 08.15น. ราคา BTCUSDT.P อยู่ที่ 104,642.8 USDT ค่ะ โดยมี Previous Weekly High (PWH) อยู่ที่ 104,967.8 Previous Weekly Low (PWL) ที่ 93,338 ค่ะ
✨ ภาพรวมตลาดวันนี้ ✨
จากการวิเคราะห์ด้วยเครื่องมือคู่ใจของเรา ทั้ง SMC/ICT (Demand/Supply Zone, Order Block, Liquidity), EMA 50/200, Trend Strength, Money Flow, Chart/Price Pattern, Premium/Discount Zone, Trend line, Fibonacci, Elliott Wave และ Dow Theory ใน Timeframe ตั้งแต่ 15m ไปจนถึง Week! 📊 เราพบว่าภาพใหญ่ของ BTCUSDT.P ยังคงอยู่ในแนวโน้มขาขึ้นที่แข็งแกร่งมากๆ ค่ะ 👍 โดยเฉพาะใน Timeframe Day และ Week ที่สัญญาณทุกอย่างสนับสนุนทิศทางขาขึ้นอย่างชัดเจน Money Flow ยังไหลเข้าอย่างต่อเนื่อง และเราเห็นโครงสร้างตลาดแบบ Dow Theory ที่ยก High ยก Low ขึ้นไปเรื่อยๆ ค่ะ
อย่างไรก็ตาม... ใน Timeframe สั้นๆ อย่าง 15m และ 1H เริ่มเห็นสัญญาณของการชะลอตัวและการพักฐานบ้างแล้วค่ะ 📉 อาจมีการสร้าง Buyside และ Sellside Liquidity รอให้ราคาไปกวาดก่อนที่จะเลือกทางใดทางหนึ่ง ซึ่งเป็นเรื่องปกติของการเดินทางของ Smart Money ค่ะ
⚡ เปรียบเทียบแนวโน้มแต่ละ Timeframe ⚡
🪙 แนวโน้มตรงกัน Timeframe 4H, Day, Week ส่วนใหญ่ชี้ไปทาง "ขาขึ้น" ค่ะ ทุกเครื่องมือสนับสนุนแนวโน้มนี้อย่างแข็งแกร่ง 💪 เป้าหมายต่อไปคือการไปทดสอบ PWH และ High เดิม เพื่อสร้าง All-Time High ใหม่ค่ะ! 🪙 แนวโน้มต่างกัน Timeframe 15m, 1H ยังค่อนข้าง "Sideways" หรือ "Sideways Down เล็กน้อย" ค่ะ มีการบีบตัวของราคาและอาจมีการพักฐานสั้นๆ ซึ่งเป็นโอกาสในการหาจังหวะเข้า Long ที่ราคาดีขึ้นค่ะ
💡 วิธีคิดแบบ Market Slayer 💡
เมื่อแนวโน้มใหญ่เป็นขาขึ้นที่แข็งแกร่ง เราจะเน้นหาจังหวะเข้า Long เป็นหลักค่ะ การย่อตัวลงมาในระยะสั้นคือโอกาสของเราในการเก็บของ! 🛍️ เราจะใช้หลักการ SMC/ICT หาโซน Demand หรือ Order Block ที่ Smart Money อาจจะเข้ามาดันราคาขึ้น และรอสัญญาณ Price Action ยืนยันการกลับตัวค่ะ
สรุปแนวโน้มวันนี้:
🪙 ระยะสั้น: Sideways to Sideways Down (โอกาส 55%) ↔️↘️ 🪙 ระยะกลาง: ขาขึ้น (โอกาส 70%) ↗️ 🪙 ระยะยาว: ขาขึ้น (โอกาส 85%) 🚀 🪙 วันนี้: มีโอกาสย่อตัวเล็กน้อยก่อนจะมีแรงซื้อกลับเข้ามาเพื่อไปทดสอบ PWH (โอกาส Sideways Down เล็กน้อย สลับกับ Sideways Up: 60%) 🎢

2025-05-14 06:12:19We asked members of the design community to choose an artifact that embodies craft—something that speaks to their understanding of what it means to make with intention. Here’s what they shared.
A vintage puzzle box, a perfectly tuned guitar, an AI-powered poetry camera. A daiquiri mixed with precision. A spreadsheet that still haunts muscle memory. Each artifact tells a story: not just about the thing itself, but about the choices of the creator behind it. What to refine, what to leave raw. When to push forward, when to let go. Whether built to last for generations or designed to delight in a fleeting moment, the common thread is that great craft doesn’t happen by accident. It’s made.
On the application of craft
Even the most experienced makers can benefit from building structure and intention into their practice. From sharpening your storytelling to designing quality products, these pieces offer practical ways to uplevel your craft.

| |:-:| |WAJDA, Andrzej; Cenizas y diamantes, 1958|
Presentamos una nueva reseña cinematográfica, y en esta ocasión hemos elegido «Cenizas y diamantes», una película polaca del célebre y prolífico director Andrzej Wajda (1926-2016), estrenada en el año 1958. Se trata de uno de los grandes clásicos del cine polaco. El filme refleja una etapa dramática desde la perspectiva histórica para la nación polaca, como es el final de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, a raíz de la capitulación alemana del 8 de mayo de 1945. El contexto en el que se desarrolla se ambienta en la celebración del final de la guerra con el aplastante triunfo de la URSS, con las tropas soviéticas ocupando toda la Europa oriental, y en particular Polonia, que vive un momento de oscuridad e incertidumbre. El protagonista, Maciek Chełmicki (interpretado magistralmente por Zbigniew Cybulski (1927-1967), apodado el «James Dean polaco»), es un joven nacionalista polaco, de orientación anticomunista, que se ve implicado en un complot urdido para asesinar a un líder comunista local. Maciek opera desde la clandestinidad, bajo el grupo Armia Krajowa (AK), el Ejército Nacional polaco, una organización de resistencia, primero contra los alemanes y, posteriormente, contra los soviéticos. Durante el metraje, se plantea una dicotomía permanente entre la libertad entendida como la defensa de la soberanía de Polonia, desde posturas nacionalistas, y quienes consideran la ocupación soviética como algo positivo. Estas circunstancias atrapan al protagonista, que se ve envuelto en una espiral de violencia y traición.
Maciek Chełmicki, nuestro protagonista, cuenta con todas las características del héroe trágico, pues tiene en sus manos una serie de acciones que comprometen el futuro de un pueblo, que consiste en cumplir la misión que le ha sido encomendada, pero en su camino se cruza una joven, Krystyna, una joven camarera de un hotel de la que se enamora en ese mismo día. Este último hecho sirve de punto de partida para todas las dudas, dilemas y dicotomías a las que hacemos referencia. Hay un dilema moral evidente en un mundo en ruinas, devastado por la guerra, la muerte y el nihilismo. En este sentido Wajda nos muestra un lenguaje cinematográfico muy evidente, a través de una técnica expresionista muy depurada, con el uso del blanco y negro, los contrastes generados por las sombras y la atmósfera opresiva que transmite angustia, desesperación y vulnerabilidad de los protagonistas. Además también destilan una fuerte carga emocional, donde no están exentos elementos poéticos y un poderoso lirismo.
|
| |:-:| |Maciek Chełmicki, el protagonista.|
Hay elementos simbólicos que no podemos obviar, y que contribuyen a consolidar el análisis que venimos haciendo, como, por ejemplo, la estética del protagonista, con unas gafas oscuras, que actúan como una suerte de barrera frente al mundo que le rodea, como parte del anonimato tras el cual el joven Maciek vive de forma introspectiva su propio drama particular y el de toda una nación.
|
| |:-:| |NITOGLIA, Curzio; En el mar de la nada: Metafísica y nihilismo a prueba en la posmodernidad; Hipérbola Janus, 2023|
Hay una escena especialmente poderosa, y casi mítica, en la que los dos jóvenes protagonistas, Maciek y Krystina, se encuentran entre las ruinas de una Iglesia, en la que se destaca en primer plano, ocupando buena parte de la pantalla, la imagen de un Cristo invertido sobre un crucifijo, donde también se encuentran dos cuerpos colgados hacia abajo en una estampa que refleja la devastación moral y espiritual de toda una época. De hecho, la imagen del crucifijo invertido refleja el máximo punto de subversión y profanación de lo sagrado, y que en el caso concreto de la película viene a representar la destrucción del orden moral y de valores cristianos que la propia guerra ha provocado. Polonia es una nación profundamente católica, convertida al Cristianismo en el 966 a raíz de la conversión del príncipe Miecislao I, contribuyendo de manera decisiva a la formación de la identidad nacional polaca. El catolicismo siempre ha sido un medio de cohesión y defensa frente a las influencias extranjeras y la ocupación de terceros países, una constante en la historia del país, como el que ilustra la propia película con la URSS. En este sentido, la imagen de una Iglesia en ruinas, el lugar donde se encuentra representado el principio de lo sagrado e inviolable, supone una forma de perversión de todo principio de redención y salvación frente a la tragedia, y al mismo tiempo viene a significar que la Tradición ha sido abandonada y pervertida. En la misma línea, el protagonista, Maciek, se encuentra atrapado en una espiral de violencia a través de sus actos terroristas perpetrados contra la autoridad soviética que ocupa su país. Los dos cuerpos anónimos que cuelgan boca abajo, de forma grotesca, también participan de este caos y desequilibrio de un orden dislocado, son parte de la deshumanización y el nihilismo que todo lo impregna.
|
| |:-:| |Maciek y Krystina en una iglesia en ruinas|
Como ya hemos mencionado, la película se encuentra plagada de paradojas y dicotomías, en las que nuestro protagonista, el joven rebelde e inconformista, debe elegir permanentemente, en unas decisiones que resultan trascendentales para su futuro y el de la propia nación. La figura femenina que irrumpe en su vida, y que representa un principio disruptivo que provoca una fractura interior y una crisis, le suscita una toma de conciencia de su propia situación y le fuerza a tomar un camino entre la «felicidad», del «amor», la «esperanza» y la «vida», que le permita superar la deriva nihilista y autodestructiva de la lucha clandestina, la cual le aboca a un destino trágico (que no vamos a desentrañar para no hacer spoiler). En relación al propio título de la película, «Cenizas y diamantes», basada en el poema del poeta y dramaturgo polaco Cyprian Norwid (1821-1883) y en la novela del autor, también polaco, Jerzy Andrzejewski (1909-1983), nos destaca la dualidad de los dos elementos que lo componen, y que definen el contraste entre el mundo sombrío y oscuro (Cenizas) y la esperanza y la luz que representa susodicha figura femenina (diamantes). La segunda alternativa parece un imposible, una quimera irrealizable que se pliega ante un Destino implacable, irreversible y cruel.
En consecuencia, y a la luz de los elementos expuestos, podemos decir que se nos presentan dilemas propios de la filosofía existencialista, que conoce su punto álgido en esos años, con autores como Jean Paul Sartre (1905-1980), Albert Camus (1913-1960), Karl Jaspers (1883-1969) o Martin Heidegger (1889-1976) entre otros. Respecto a éste último, a Heidegger, podemos encontrar algunas claves interesantes a través de su filosofía en relación al protagonista, a Maciek, especialmente a través de la idea del Dasein, a la idea de haber sido arrojado al mundo (Geworfenheit), y la manera tan extrema y visceral en la que vive susodicha condición. Todos aquellos elementos que dan sentido a la vida colectiva se encuentran decaídos o destruidos en su esencia más íntima, la Patria, la religión o la propia idea de Comunidad orgánica. De modo que el protagonista se ha visto «arrojado» frente a una situación o destino indeseado, en unas coyunturas totalmente desfavorables en las que no queda otra elección. Sus decisiones están permanentemente condicionadas por la circunstancia descrita y, por tanto, vive en un mundo donde no controla nada, en lugar de ser sujeto es un mero objeto transportado por esas circunstancias ajenas a su voluntad. Sin embargo, y en coherencia con el Dasein heideggeriano, vemos como Maciek, a raíz de conocer a Krystyna, comienza a experimentar una catarsis interior, que muestra por momentos el deseo de superar ese «ser arrojado al mundo contra tu voluntad», trascendiendo esa condición absurda e irracional de unas decisiones enajenadas de su voluntad para dotar de una significación y un sentido la propia existencia.
|
| |:-:| |Andrzej Wajda, el director de la película.|
Otro elemento característico de la filosofía heideggeriana lo podemos encontrar en la «angustia» (angst) a través de la ausencia de un sentido y fundamento último que justifique la existencia del protagonista. Es una angustia en a que el Dasein se enfrenta a la «nada», a ese vacío existencial que hace inútil toda la lucha que Maciek lleva a cabo en la clandestinidad, con asesinatos y actos de terrorismo que pretenden salvaguardar algo que ya no existe, y que simboliza muy bien la Iglesia en ruinas con sus símbolos religiosos invertidos de la que hablábamos con anterioridad. Recuerda un poco a esa dicotomía que se plantea entre ser conservador o reaccionario frente a una realidad como la del propio presente, en la que los valores tradicionales han sido totalmente destruidos, y más que conservar se impone la reacción para volver a construir de la nada.
|
| |:-:| |Hipérbola Janus; Textos para la Tradición en tiempos del oscurecimiento: Artículos publicados entre 2014 y 2019 en hiperbolajanus.com; Hipérbola Janus, 2019|
Todas las dudas que asaltan al protagonista se ven incrementadas en el momento decisivo, cuando se dispone a dar muerte al líder comunista. Se produce una tensión interna en Maciek, que se encuentra ligado a la joven que ha conocido ese día, y en ella es donde encuentra ese leve destello de humanidad. Esa circunstancia le hace replantearse por un instante el cumplimiento de su misión, pero es un dilema que no tiene salida, y por ello le asalta nuevamente la angustia frente a esa «nada», ese mundo vacío e incomprensible que trasciende el marco de sus propias elecciones.
Uno de los conceptos centrales de Heidegger en Ser y tiempo es el Sein-zum-Tode (ser-para-la-muerte), la idea de que la muerte es la posibilidad más propia y definitiva del Dasein, y que enfrentarla auténticamente permite vivir de manera más plena. Y es que el protagonista se encuentra permanentemente sobre esa frontera entre la vida y la muerte, que afronta con todas sus consecuencias, conscientemente, y la acepta. Esta actitud podría leerse como una forma de Dasein inauténtico, una huida del ser-para-la-muerte mediante la distracción (das Man, el «se» impersonal). Sin embargo, su decisión de cumplir la misión sugiere un enfrentamiento final con esa posibilidad. Otro aspecto que podemos conectar con el pensamiento heideggeriano es la autenticidad o inautenticidad de la vida del protagonista. En relación a la inautenticidad vemos como al principio sigue las órdenes de sus superiores en la organización sin cuestionarlas, lo cual implica un comportamiento inequívocamente alienante. Respecto a aquello que resulta auténtico de su existencia son sus relaciones con Krystyna, que supone imponer su propia voluntad y decisión, mostrando un Dasein que asume su libertad.
|
| |:-:| |Escena de la película.|
Otros aspectos más generales de la filosofía existencialista redundan sobre estos mismos aspectos, con la elección entre la libertad absoluta y la condena inevitable. La idea del hombre condenado a actuar, a una elección continua, aún cuando el hombre no es dueño de su destino, o las consecuencias de tales acciones son absurdas, irracionales e incomprensibles. El propio absurdo de la existencia frente al vacío y la ausencia de principios sólidos en los que cimentar la vida, no solo en sus aspectos cotidianos más básicos, sino en aquellos más profundos de la existencia. La soledad y la propia fatalidad frente a un Destino que, como ya hemos apuntado anteriormente, parece imponerse de manera irrevocable, y podríamos decir que brutalmente, al individuo aislado, incapaz de asirse en una guía, en unos valores que le permitan remontar la situación.
En términos generales «Cenizas y diamantes», además de ser una película de gran calidad en sus aspectos técnicos, en su fotografía, en la configuración de sus escenas y en el propio desarrollo argumental, bajo un guión espléndidamente ejecutado a lo largo de sus 98 minutos de duración, también nos invita a una reflexión profunda sobre la condición humana y la propia Modernidad. Y es algo que vemos en nuestros días, con las consecuencias de un pensamiento débil, con la promoción del individualismo, el hedonismo y lo efímero. La ausencia de estructuras sólidas, la subversión de toda forma de autoridad y jerarquía tradicionales. Paradójicamente, el mundo actual tiende a formas de poder y autoridad mucho más invasivas y coercitivas, tanto a nivel individual como colectivo, pero en la misma línea abstracta e impersonal que nos describe la película, abocándonos a la alienación y la inautenticidad de nuestras propias vidas. Y como Maciek, también nosotros, vivimos en un mundo dominado por la incertidumbre y la desesperanza, en el que el globalismo y sus perversas ideologías deshumanizantes actúan por doquier.

2025-05-17 07:35:51Cryptocurrencies are digital currencies that have gained significant attention in recent times. Cryptocurrency mining, also known as mining, involves computers equipped with specialized software and hardware solving problems to validate cryptocurrency transfer transactions and, in return, being rewarded with newly generated cryptocurrency. If you have a powerful computer and an internet connection, you can easily engage in mining. Anyone interested in cryptocurrency mining needs to have computers with robust processors.
Transfers between wallets are possible, and transactions can be added to the transaction pool on numerous blockchains without the need for confirmation. Later, transactions are combined to form a block. These blocks are verified from the perspective of the systems connected to the network and, upon confirmation, are added to the blockchain.
To earn money through mining, you need to invest a significant amount of time. Earnings can vary depending on the type of mining, the value of the cryptocurrency, and the unit of measurement. Considerable budget investment is required for the system. Price increases in computer components lead to an increase in investment. However, it's possible to turn your investment into profit in a short period.
Having a high processing power can make it more challenging to cool the computers. Taking this into account, you need to adjust your budget. Additionally, an increase in the number of computers makes monitoring and maintenance more difficult. You must have sufficient knowledge about hardware. Otherwise, there is a risk of your money going to waste. As mining progresses, your investment may need to increase. In the event of malfunctions and decreased performance, replacements are necessary.
How to Earn with Bitcoin Mining? With mining, you can earn cryptocurrency without having to work too hard. Bitcoin is obtained from units called blocks. To complete a block, there is a reward of 12.5 BTC. You can calculate this based on the current value of Bitcoin.
When Bitcoin was first introduced in 2009, mining rewarded 50 BTC. We can say that this number is halved every four years. So, in 2012, it became 25 BTC, in 2015, 12.5 BTC, and as of 2020, it was 6.25 BTC.
How much profit can be made from Bitcoin mining? Earning from cryptocurrencies is not limited to cryptocurrency exchanges. As mentioned earlier, you can also earn through mining. The income and expenses of Bitcoin mining can vary depending on the type of mining performed. Therefore, individuals interested in mining need to make a good plan.
The income can vary depending on the chosen mining method and the price and unit of the cryptocurrency. Making a profit takes time. After purchasing the hardware, you need to wait for it to amortize its cost and recover the fees paid for cloud mining.
Recent price stagnation has led to a decrease in on-chain transaction activity for Bitcoin. This has negatively affected miners' earnings. According to recent data, 231,437 transactions have been processed. This is noted as the lowest number of transactions since May 24th. We can see a 40% drop from the peak of 382,408 transactions in July.
What is the Return on Ethereum Mining? Ethereum is one of the most widely mined cryptocurrencies in the cryptocurrency market. Ethereum miners can earn an average of around $1,121 per year. When you factor in expenses for electricity, other hardware, and various items, it may not be possible to make a significant profit in the first year. However, if you view this as an investment, you can expect to make substantial gains in subsequent periods.
Having powerful hardware increases earnings and enables efficient mining. Just as with all investments, the risk-reward ratio should be calculated carefully for mining

From early-morning school drop-offs to seniors booking rides to the hospital, from suburban commuters seeking a faster link to the metro to families visiting ancestral graves, Shanghai is rolling out a new kind of public bus — one that’s designed by commuters, and launched only when enough riders request it.
Branded “DZ” for dingzhi, or “customized,” the system invites residents to submit proposed routes through a city-run platform. Others with similar travel needs can opt in or vote, and if demand meets the threshold — typically 15 to 20 passengers per trip — the route goes live.
More than 220 DZ routes have already launched across all 16 city districts. Through an online platform opened May 8, users enter start and end points, preferred times, and trip frequency. If approved, routes can begin running in as little as three days.

2025-05-17 06:44:56CHAPTER TWENTY ONE
“Yes, thank you,” he repeated, eyes sharp. “Because in your rejection, I found purpose. In your insults, I found strength. And now, here I stand not as a man shaped by wealth but as a man forged in fire.”
The room went silent. A solemn kind of reverence now filled the air.
“I will not seek revenge,” James continued. “That’s not the legacy I want. But I will hold people accountable. And this… is just the beginning.”
Helen trembled in her seat. Mark felt sweat roll down his back. Even Susan and Robert felt the sting of those words.
“JP Enterprises,” James said, lifting his glass in a toast, “was built on vision, perseverance, and truth. And under my leadership, it will rise higher than ever before. For those willing to build, I welcome you. For those still plotting destruction…”
He let his words hang in the air, cold and final.
“…you won’t last long.”
The crowd erupted into an ovation once again, this time standing as they clapped.
Mrs. JP hugged her son once more. Mr. JP’s proud expression never faltered.
As the celebration continued, Helen slowly rose and left the hall in silence, not from shame but from a new, burning bitterness. Mark followed shortly behind her, furious whispers passing between them.
Tracy stayed seated, her face pale, her hands unmoving. She couldn’t stop replaying James’s words in her mind.
And James? He turned to the side of the stage and saw Rita standing there, tears glistening in her eyes, pride glowing on her face. She had seen the fall. Now she was witnessing the rise.
The moment was thick with silence. All eyes in the grand ballroom turned toward the center of the unfolding drama like magnets drawn to chaos. Cameras flashed. Murmurs rippled like waves through the crowd. Mr. JP, still standing on the stage beside his wife and son, narrowed his gaze.
The young lady, her face stained with tears and regret, dropped to her knees before James, her voice shaking but loud enough for everyone to hear.
“I’m sorry!” she cried. “Please forgive me… I… I was bribed! I was paid to come here and create a scene to disgrace you, to ruin your name”
James raised a brow, his face calm as stone.
The lady’s hand trembled as she pointed directly at two guests sitting stiffly in the second row. “It was them… Mark and Helen! They paid me. They told me to pretend I was your sister… I didn’t know it would go this far. I was desperate, and they offered me money!”
Gasps exploded in the room. Faces turned to Mark and Helen like a spotlight shifting focus. The weight of public scrutiny came crashing down.
“Lies!” Helen sprang up from her seat, her voice shrill and cracking. “She’s making it up! This is ridiculous! Why would I stoop so low?”
Mark stood next to her, adjusting his blazer as sweat gathered on his brow. “We’ve never seen this woman in our lives! She’s obviously been put up to this to frame us!”
James stepped forward, every inch the man now known as the true heir of JP Enterprises. “You both seem very quick to deny,” he said coolly, his gaze fixed like iron. “Are you implying this entire company, this crowd, and my family are foolish enough to believe a random accusation without evidence?”
“I’m saying this is staged,” Helen snapped, but her voice lacked its usual bite.
Before James could speak again, his uncle Charles walked toward the stage with a tablet in hand. “That’s interesting, because we already have transactional proof of your payments to her. Digital receipts. Surveillance footage. Voice recordings.” He held the tablet high. “Would you like me to play the part where you told her to make sure she cries in front of the cameras?”
The ballroom went utterly still.
Helen took a step back, her face paling. Mark's jaw clenched. “This… this can’t be real…”
“Oh, it’s very real,” James replied, his tone low and calm. “You thought you were playing chess while I was playing checkers. But I already saw the board long before you made your first move.”
Reporters surged forward, microphones extended, camera flashes dancing like strobe lights.
“Is this true, Mr. Mark? Ms. Helen?” “Were you behind the attempted defamation?” “Do you have any statement to make regarding the scandal?”
Helen was trembling now, her poise cracking under pressure. “You set us up!” she screamed. “You and your entire perfect little company, this is all a setup!”
“You did that yourself,” James said, his voice steady. “You tried to ruin me twice. Once in silence. Once in public. But the truth always finds light.”
Mr. JP raised his hand for silence. “I want them arrested,” he said firmly, turning to the uniformed security now entering the hall. “For defamation, for conspiracy, and for fraud.”
Helen turned to Mark. “Do something!”
Mark shook his head. “We’re finished…”
As the two were taken away by security, the entire room burst into conversations. Guests who had once smiled at Helen and Mark now recoiled. Their masks were gone. The truth was unveiled.
James turned to the young lady who was still kneeling. “You may go,” he said simply. “Justice isn’t yours to carry, it belongs to the law now.”
She nodded, tears falling anew, and left without a word.
Mrs. JP walked to her son’s side, taking his hand. “You’ve done well, James. Not just as a leader but as a man.”
Mr. JP smiled too, pride replacing the sternness in his eyes. “You’ve proven to this company and to this city that truth and integrity still win.”
James gave a slow nod, then stepped to the podium as the crowd turned toward him, waiting, hoping.
“I didn’t build JP Enterprises,” he said. “My father did. And many of you helped. But I will carry it forward. And I will protect it not just from failure, but from corruption.”
The ballroom quieted as James stepped down from the podium. The echoes of the applause still lingered like the gentle aftertaste of a vintage wine. People parted as he walked no longer the man whispered about in shadows, but the man now held in reverence. His walk was steady, composed. Every step was weighted with the dignity of a man who had not only reclaimed his name but risen far above the ones who tried to bury it.
Behind him, Helen and Mark were escorted out under the bright, unforgiving lights of press cameras and the judgment of a hundred curious eyes. There were no more veils to hide behind. No more pretense. Their downfall was no longer a quiet, whispered hope it was reality.
Outside the hall, as the night air kissed the courtyard, James stood with his mother, father, and Uncle Charles. Sandra and Rita joined them, both proud, both silent for a moment until Mrs. JP broke the silence.

2025-03-31 15:41:53El 7 de febrero de 2025, Donald Trump firmó una orden ejecutiva que establecía una «Oficina de la Fe» en la Casa Blanca, dirigida por su asesora espiritual Paula White-Cain, la pastora de esa «teología de la prosperidad» (prosperity theology) que predica el «Evangelio de la salud y la riqueza» (health and wealth gospel^1). Investida de su nueva función, la reverenda pastora dijo: «Tengo la autoridad para declarar a la Casa Blanca un lugar santo. Es mi presencia la que la santifica»[^2]. Los siete rabinos del «Sanedrín Naciente» —la corte suprema que guiará a Israel cuando se reconstruya el Templo de Jerusalén— enviaron conmovedoras felicitaciones al presidente Trump por el establecimiento de esta Oficina. «Expresamos nuestra sincera gratitud —se lee en el mensaje oficial enviado a Trump desde el Monte Sión— por llevar la fe a la vanguardia de la cultura estadounidense y mundial mediante el establecimiento de la Oficina de la Fe en la Casa Blanca. Su reconocimiento de la importancia de la religión en la vida pública es un paso hacia la restauración de los valores morales y del liderazgo espiritual en el mundo[^3]. La carta del «Sanedrín Naciente», que augura el éxito a la «misión divina» del presidente estadounidense, reproduce las dos caras de una «moneda del Templo», acuñada en 2017 para celebrar el traslado de la embajada estadounidense a Jerusalén y, simultáneamente, el centenario de la Declaración Balfour. En el anverso se ven los perfiles de Donald Trump y Ciro el Grande, a quien la tradición judía atribuye la reconstrucción del templo destruido por los babilonios, con la inscripción (en hebreo e inglés) «Cyrus —Balfour— Trump Declaration 1917-2017»; en el reverso está la imagen del Templo de Jerusalén[^4]. Otra moneda, que lleva los perfiles de Trump y Ciro en el anverso y los de Trump y Netanyahu en el reverso, fue acuñada en 2018 para celebrar el septuagésimo aniversario de la independencia del «Estado de Israel»; se observa dos inscripciones en hebreo e inglés: «Y Él me encargó construirle una casa en Jerusalén» y «Guerra de los Hijos de la Luz contra los Hijos de las Tinieblas».
El tema de la «guerra de los Hijos de la Luz contra los Hijos de las Tinieblas» ha tenido una difusión particular en el imaginario y la propaganda trumpista. El 7 de junio de 2020, monseñor Carlo Maria Viganò, ex nuncio de la Santa Sede en los Estados Unidos, escribió una carta al presidente Donald Trump que comenzaba así: «Estamos asistiendo en los últimos meses a la formación de dos bandos, que los definiría bíblicos: los hijos de la luz y los hijos de las tinieblas»[^5]. El 1 de enero de 2021, el agitprop estadounidense Steve Bannon declaró en una entrevista con Monseñor Viganò: «Esta es una batalla de época entre los hijos de la Luz y los hijos de las Tinieblas»[^6].
Son numerosos los judíos sionistas que están en el círculo del presidente Trump: además de su hija Ivanka (convertida en 2009) y su yerno Jared Kushner (entonces Consejero Anciano del Presidente), el 19 de noviembre de 2024 el «The Jerusalem Post»[^7] publicó una lista de los más influyentes: Stephen Miller, subdirector del staff de la Casa Blanca y consejero de Seguridad Nacional de Estados Unidos; David Melech Friedman, a quien en 2016 Trump nombró embajador en Israel; el multimillonario «filántropo» Steven Charles Witkoff, enviado especial de Estados Unidos a Oriente Medio; Miriam Adelson, directora del periódico «Israel Hayom», clasificada por Bloomberg Billionaires como la quinta mujer más rica del mundo (con un patrimonio neto de 32,400 millones de dólares), financiadora de iniciativas políticas conservadoras en Estados Unidos e Israel; el banquero Boris Epshteyn, consejero estratégico de la campaña presidencial de Trump en 2020; Howard Williams Lutnick, presidente de la Cantor Fitzgerald del Grupo BGC, financista de las campañas presidenciales de Donald Trump en 2020 y 2024, ahora secretario de Comercio; la modelo Elizabeth Pipko, portavoz nacional del Partido Republicano y creadora de un «museo interactivo virtual» sobre la «Shoah» como parte del proyecto de Lest People Forget, cuyo objetivo es combatir el «antisemitismo» y la «negacionismo»; Lee Michael Zeldin, miembro republicano de la Cámara de Representantes por el estado de Nueva York del 2015 al 2023 y actualmente administrador de la EPA (Environmental Protection Agency); la columnista Laura Elizabeth Loomer, «orgullosamente islamófoba», activa patrocinadora de Trump en la campaña para las elecciones presidenciales de 2024; Sidney Ferris Rosenberg, influyente presentador de radio y periodista deportivo; William Owen Scharf, Asistente del Presidente y secretario del personal de la Casa Blanca; Marc Jeffrey Rowan, «filántropo» con un patrimonio neto valorado por Forbes en ocho mil ochocientos millones de dólares.
Además de estos, cabe mencionar al popular presentador de radio Mark Levin quien, en diciembre de 2019, durante la celebración de la fiesta de Janucá en la Casa Blanca, saludó a Donald Trump como «el primer presidente judío de los Estados Unidos»[^8]. Según un funcionario de alto nivel de la Casa Blanca, Donald Trump se convirtió al judaísmo dos años antes en la sinagoga de la secta Jabad Lubavitch en la ciudad de Nueva York. David Elias Goldberg, miembro del Jewish Center of Antisemitic Study, también entrevistó al funcionario, para quien «Trump fue “instado” por su hija Ivanka y su yerno Jared Kushner para abrazar la fe. Inicialmente, Trump se habría mostrado reacio, considerando que esto podría enfriar el apoyo del electorado evangélico». Luego, informa «Israel Today News», «cambió de opinión y se convirtió oficialmente a principios de 2017. La ceremonia se llevó a cabo en privado y se guardó celosamente durante casi dos años»[^9]. Pero ya en septiembre de 2015, el rabino millonario Kirt Schneider, invitado a la Trump Tower de Nueva York, había impuesto sus manos sobre la cabeza de Donald Trump y lo había bendecido en hebreo e inglés, declarando: «Las únicas dos naciones que tienen una relación privilegiada con Dios son Israel y los Estados Unidos de América»[^10].
El 7 de octubre de 2024, en el aniversario de la operación de Hamas «Diluvio de Al-Aqsa», Trump fue acompañado por un «superviviente de la Shoah» a la tumba de Menachem Mendel Schneerson, séptimo y último Rabino de los Hasidim de la secta Jabad Lubavitch, que en 1991 declaró a sus seguidores: «He hecho todo lo posible para provocar el arribo del Mesías, ahora les paso a ustedes esta misión; hagan todo lo que puedan para que Él venga»^11. En relación al evento mesiánico, el eminente rabino Yekutiel Fish atribuyó una misión decisiva a Trump: «Todo el mundo está centrado en Gaza, pero esa es solo una parte de la agenda del fin de los tiempos, que tiene a los judíos viviendo en las fronteras profetizadas de Israel; la Torá incluye explícitamente a Gaza. Lo que Trump está haciendo es limpiar Gaza de todos los odiadores de Israel. No podrán estar en Israel después de la venida del Mesías. (...) Esto incluirá a Gaza, la mitad del Líbano y gran parte de Jordania. Y vemos que casi lo hemos logrado. Siria cayó. Líbano está medio destruido. Gaza está destrozada. El escenario está casi listo para el Mesías. Pero, ¿cómo pueden los palestinos estar aquí cuando vayamos a recibir al Mesías? El Mesías necesita que alguien se ocupe de esto, y en este caso, es Donald Trump. Trump está simplemente llevando a cabo las tareas finales necesarias antes de que el Mesías sea revelado»[^12].
Esta inspiración escatológica está presente en las palabras de Pete Brian Hegseth, el pintoresco exponente del «Reconstruccionismo Cristiano»[^13] a quien Trump nombró secretario de Defensa. En un discurso pronunciado en 2019 en el Hotel Rey David de Jerusalén, con motivo de la conferencia anual del canal Arutz Sheva (Israel National News), Hegseth enalteció el «vínculo eterno» entre Israel y Estados Unidos, y enumeró los «milagros» que atestiguan el «apoyo divino» a la causa sionista, el último de los cuales será la reconstrucción del Templo judío en la zona donde actualmente se encuentra la mezquita de al-Aqsa: «La dignidad de capital adquirida por Jerusalén —dijo— fue un milagro, y no hay razón por la cual no sea posible el milagro de la restauración del Templo en el Monte del Templo».[^14]
Es conocido que el fundamentalismo evangélico pro-sionista[^15] comparte con el judaísmo la creencia en que la construcción del tercer Templo de Jerusalén marcará el comienzo de la era mesiánica; cuando la administración Trump trasladó la embajada de Estados Unidos a Jerusalén en 2017, Laurie Cardoza-Moore, exponente del evangelismo sionista, saludó así la «obediencia de Trump a la Palabra de Dios» en «Haaretz»: «Al establecer la Embajada en Jerusalén, el presidente Donald Trump está implementando una de las iniciativas históricas de dimensión bíblica en su presidencia. Al igual que muchos judíos en Israel y en todo el mundo, los cristianos reconocen el vínculo de los judíos con la Biblia a través del nombre de Jerusalén como la capital del antiguo Israel, así como el sitio del Primer y Segundo Templos. Según los profetas Ezequiel, Isaías y el apóstol Juan del Nuevo Testamento, todos los israelíes esperan la reconstrucción del Tercer Templo»[^16]. El 22 de mayo del mismo año, Donald Trump, acompañado de su esposa Melania, de su hija Ivanka y su yerno Jared Kushner, fue el primer presidente de los Estados Unidos en ejercicio en acudir al Muro de las Lamentaciones, anexionado ilegalmente a la entidad sionista.
En 2019, la administración Trump confirmó la posición de Estados Unidos al enviar en visita oficial para Jerusalén a Mike Pompeo, un secretario de Estado que —ironía de la Historia— lleva el mismo nombre del general romano que asaltó la ciudad en el año 63 a.C. «Por primera vez en la historia, un secretario de Estado norteamericano visitó la Ciudad Vieja de Jerusalén en compañía de un alto político israelí. Fue una visita histórica que reforzó las expectativas israelíes y constituyó un reconocimiento tácito de la soberanía israelí sobre el sitio del Monte del Templo y la Explanada de las Mezquitas. (…) Mike Pompeo, acompañado por el primer ministro Benjamin Netanyahu y el embajador de Estados Unidos en Israel, David Friedman, también visitó el túnel del Muro de las Lamentaciones y la sinagoga ubicada bajo tierra, en el presunto lugar del santuario del Templo[^17], donde se le mostró una maqueta del futuro Templo[^18]. En el transcurso de una entrevista concedida durante la fiesta del Purim (que celebra el exterminio de la clase política persa, ocurrido hace 2500 años), el secretario de Estado insinuó que «el presidente Donald Trump puede haber sido enviado por Dios para salvar al pueblo judío y que confiaba en que aquí el Señor estaba obrando»[^19].
Como observa Daniele Perra, en este mismo número de «Eurasia», el «mito movilizador» del Tercer Templo, atribuible a los «mitos teológicos» señalados por Roger Garaudy como mitos fundadores de la entidad sionista, «atribuye al judaísmo una especie de función sociológica de transmisión y proyección del conflicto palestino-israelí hacia el resto del mundo y confiere una inspiración apocalíptica al momento geopolítico actual».

2025-05-17 06:31:52ความสำเร็จ จำเป็นต้องมีวินัย
ความมีวินัย คือ "การทำด้วยความตั้งใจ ไม่หวั่นไหว/ไหลตามไปกับอารมณ์" ส่วน "ความไร้วินัย" มีนัยยะตรงกันข้าม กล่าวคือ
ความไร้วินัย คือ "การทำตามความหวั่นไหว/ไหลตามไปกับอารมณ์" เช่น ความง่วง หิว เบื่อ เซ็ง พอใจ ไม่พอใจ กลัว หลงไหล/ขาดสติ เป็นต้น จนเกิดข้ออ้างสารพัด เช่น * อ้างว่าเดี๋ยวก่อน เอาไว้ทีหลัง * อ้างว่าเหนื่อยหน่าย * อ้างว่าร้อนไป หนาวไป * อ้างว่ายังเช้าอยู่ * อ้างว่าสายไปแล้ว * ฯลฯ
การสร้างวินัยที่ยั่งยืน "ไม่ได้เกิดจากการฝืน แต่เกิดจากความฝัน" กฎแห่งความฝันระบุว่า เราต้องสร้างภาพสวรรค์ (เป้าหมาย) ให้ชัด จากนั้นให้ลดช่องว่างระหว่างการคิดและการกระทำให้เหลือน้อยที่สุด เพราะถ้าเราคิดมาก ส่วนใหญ่เราจะไม่ได้ทำ จิตใจเราจะอ่อนแอ ไม่เข้มแข็งมั่นคง
กฎแห่งความฝัน ควรฝันเพื่อผู้อื่น อย่าฝันเพื่อตัวเองคนเดียว เพราะขณะที่จิตมุ่งเป้าสู่ความสำเร็จนั้นมัน ถ้ามันมีมากเกินไป สติปัญญาจะอ่อนค่าลง ความรอบรู้จะน้อยลง ณ ขณะนั้นการกระทำทั้งปวงจะขาดความเห็นอกเห็นใจผู้อื่นหากทำเพื่อตัวเองฝ่ายเดียว แต่ถ้าพลังมุ่งเป้าที่ส่วนรวม ทุกการกระทำจะส่งคุณค่าเกิดเป็นความสุขความสำเร็จร่วมกัน

2025-05-12 14:50:36A posição do libertário que rejeita o cristianismo padece de sérias incoerências lógicas, históricas e filosóficas. Ao renegar as bases espirituais e culturais que tornaram possível o próprio ideal libertário, tal posição demonstra ser, ao mesmo tempo, autofágica e irracional. É o caso de alguém que se gloria dos frutos de uma árvore que corta pela raiz.
I. Fundamento histórico: a civilização da liberdade é cristã
Não foi o secularismo moderno, nem o paganismo antigo, que ergueram as instituições que protegem a dignidade da pessoa humana e os limites ao poder. Desde os primeiros séculos, a Igreja resistiu ao culto estatal romano, afirmando a soberania de Deus sobre os Césares — "Mais importa obedecer a Deus que aos homens" (Atos 5,29).
Foi o cristianismo que:
-
Fundou universidades livres, onde o saber era buscado sob o primado da verdade;
-
Defendeu a lei natural como fundamento do direito — uma doutrina que protege o indivíduo contra tiranias;
-
Resgatou e aprofundou o conceito de pessoa, dotada de razão e livre-arbítrio, imagem de Deus, e, portanto, inalienavelmente digna e responsável.
Em momentos-chave da história, como nas disputas entre papado e império, nas resistências contra absolutismos, e na fundação do direito internacional por Francisco de Vitoria e a Escola de Salamanca, foi o cristianismo quem freou o poder estatal em nome de princípios superiores. A tradição cristã foi frequentemente o principal obstáculo à tirania, não seu aliado.
Negar isso é amputar a própria genealogia da liberdade ocidental.
Uma das chaves do cristianismo para a construção dessa civilização da liberdade foi a exaltação do individualismo. Ao afirmar que o ser humano é feito à imagem de Deus e que sua salvação é uma escolha pessoal, o cristianismo colocou o indivíduo no centro da moralidade e da liberdade. Diferente dos gregos, cuja ética era voltada para a polis e a cidade-estado, o cristianismo reafirma a suprema importância do indivíduo, com sua capacidade de escolha moral, responsabilidade pessoal e dignidade intrínseca. Esse princípio, mais do que qualquer outra religião, foi o alicerce do desenvolvimento da liberdade individual e da autonomia, valores que sustentam a civilização ocidental.
A ética grega, na melhor das hipóteses, descreve a ordem natural — mas não consegue justificar por que essa ordem deveria obrigar a vontade humana. Um Logos impessoal não tem autoridade moral. Uma ordem cósmica sem um Legislador é apenas um dado de fato, não uma norma vinculante. A vontade pode rebelar-se contra o telos — e sem um Deus justo, que ordena a natureza à perfeição, não há razão última para não o fazer.
A cultura grega teve uma influência indiscutível sobre o desenvolvimento da civilização ocidental, mas o cristianismo não só absorveu o que havia de bom na cultura grega, como também elevou e completou esses aspectos. O cristianismo, ao afirmar que todos os homens são feitos à imagem e semelhança de Deus e têm dignidade intrínseca, levou a uma noção de igualdade moral e liberdade que transcende as limitações da pólis grega.
II. Falsa dicotomia: fé e liberdade não são opostas
Com frequência equiparam a religião à coerção e à obediência cega. Mas isso é um equívoco: o cristianismo não se impõe pela força, mas apela à consciência. O próprio Deus, em sua relação com a criatura racional, respeita sua liberdade. Como ensina a Escritura:
"Se alguém quiser vir após mim..." (Mt 16,24);
"Eis que estou à porta e bato. Se alguém ouvir a minha voz e abrir a porta, entrarei em sua casa e cearei com ele." (Ap 3,20);
"Assim falai, e assim procedei, como devendo ser julgados pela lei da liberdade." (Tiago 2,12).A adesão à fé deve ser livre, voluntária e racional, pois sem liberdade não há verdadeiro mérito, nem amor genuíno. Isso é mais compatível com o princípio de não agressão do que qualquer utopia secular. Ora, o núcleo do evangelho é voluntarista: salvação pessoal, conversão interior, caridade.
Ninguém deve ser forçado, contra sua vontade, a abraçar a fé, pois o ato de fé é por sua natureza voluntário (Dignitatis Humanae; CDC, cân. 748,2)
Se algum Estado usa da força para impor o cristianismo, afirmar que o cristianismo causou as coerções é tão equivocado quanto dizer que a propriedade privada causa o comunismo; é uma inversão da realidade, pois o comunismo surge precisamente da violação da propriedade. Portanto, a fé forçada é inválida em si mesma, pois viola a natureza do ato de crer, que deve ser livre.
III. Fundamento moral: sem transcendência, o libertarianismo flutua no vácuo
O libertário anticristão busca defender princípios objetivos — como a inviolabilidade do indivíduo e a ilegitimidade da agressão — sem um fundamento transcendente que lhes dê validade universal. Por que a agressão é errada? Por que alguém tem direito à vida, à liberdade, à propriedade? Sem uma explicação transcendental, as respostas para tais perguntas se tornam apenas opiniões ou convenções, não obrigações morais vinculantes. Se a moralidade é puramente humana, então os direitos podem ser modificados ou ignorados conforme a vontade da sociedade. O conceito de direitos naturais, tão caro ao libertarianismo, precisa de um solo metafísico que justifique sua universalidade e imutabilidade. Caso contrário, eles podem ser tratados apenas como acordos utilitários temporários ou preferências culturais, sem qualquer obrigatoriedade para todos os seres humanos em todas as circunstâncias.
Pensadores libertários seculares, como Ayn Rand e Murray Rothbard, tentaram ancorar os direitos naturais na razão humana ou na natureza do homem. Rand baseia sua ética no egoísmo racional, enquanto Rothbard apela à lei natural. Embora essas abordagens busquem objetividade, elas carecem de uma resposta definitiva para por que a razão ou a natureza humana obrigam moralmente todos os indivíduos. Sem um fundamento transcendente, suas concepções permanecem vulneráveis a interpretações subjetivas ou a cálculos utilitários.
Aqui, o cristianismo oferece uma explicação sólida e transcendental que fundamenta os direitos naturais. A visão cristã de que o ser humano foi criado à imagem e semelhança de Deus confere à pessoa uma dignidade intrínseca, imutável e universal. Essa dignidade não depende de fatores externos, como consenso social ou poder político, mas é uma característica inerente ao ser humano pela sua criação divina. A partir dessa perspectiva teológica, torna-se possível afirmar com base sólida que os direitos naturais são dados por Deus e, portanto, são universais e vinculantes.
O cristianismo também é a base de um sistema moral que distingue claramente justiça de legalidade. O Estado pode criar leis, mas isso não significa que essas leis sejam justas. A justiça, sob a ótica cristã, é uma expressão da ordem moral objetiva, algo que transcende as leis humanas e é definido pela vontade divina. Por isso, o libertarianismo cristão vê a agressão como uma violação de uma ordem moral objetiva, e não apenas uma violação de uma convenção social ou de um acordo utilitário.
Se a moralidade e os direitos naturais não forem fundamentados em um Logos criador e legislador, o que acontece é que o conceito de direito natural degenera para algo mais frágil, como um simples acordo utilitário. Nesse cenário, os direitos do indivíduo se tornam algo acordado entre os membros de uma sociedade, em vez de princípios imutáveis e universais. Os direitos podem ser negociados, alterados ou ignorados conforme o interesse do momento.
IV. Fundamento científico: a racionalidade moderna é filha da fé cristã
A ciência moderna só foi possível no contexto cultural cristão. Nenhuma outra civilização — nem a grega, nem a islâmica, nem a chinesa — produziu o método científico como o Ocidente cristão o fez.
Isso se deve a quatro premissas teológicas:
-
Criação racional: O mundo é ordenado por um Deus racional.
-
Distinção entre Criador e criatura: A natureza não é divina e pode ser estudada sem sacrilégio.
-
Valor do trabalho e da observação empírica, herdado do monaquismo.
-
Autonomia institucional, presente nas universidades medievais.
A doutrina cristã da Criação ex nihilo ensina que o mundo foi criado por um Deus racional, sábio e pessoal. Portanto, o cosmos é ordenado, possui leis, e pode ser compreendido pela razão humana — que é imagem do Criador. Isso contrasta fortemente com as cosmovisões panteístas ou mitológicas, onde o mundo é cíclico, arbitrário ou habitado por forças caprichosas.
Sem essa fé no Logos criador, não há razão para crer que a natureza tenha uma ordem inteligível universal e constante, que pode ser descoberta por observação e dedução. A ciência moderna só é possível porque, antes de investigar a natureza, pressupôs-se que ela era investigável — e isso foi uma herança direta do pensamento cristão.
Homens como Bacon, Newton, Kepler e Galileu viam na ciência um modo de glorificar o Criador. O ateísmo cientificista é, portanto, parasitário da teologia cristã, pois toma seus frutos e rejeita suas raízes. A ciência moderna nasceu como filha legítima da fé cristã. E os que hoje a usam contra sua mãe, ou são ingratos, ou ignorantes.
V. O cristianismo como barreira à revolução cultural
O cristianismo é a barreira mais sólida contra a infiltração revolucionária. A chamada "marcha gramsciana", que visa corroer os fundamentos morais da sociedade para subjugar o indivíduo ao coletivo, encontra sua resistência mais firme nos princípios cristãos. A fé cristã, ao proclamar a existência de uma verdade objetiva, de uma lei moral imutável e de uma dignidade humana que transcende o Estado e o consenso social, imuniza a civilização contra o relativismo e o igualitarismo nivelador do marxismo cultural.
Além disso, o cristianismo é uma tradição milenar, profundamente enraizada no cotidiano das pessoas, não sendo uma novidade a ser imposta ou implementada, mas uma força presente há séculos, que permeia a estrutura social, moral e cultural da sociedade. Sua presença constante nas comunidades, desde os tempos mais antigos, oferece uma resistência robusta contra qualquer tentativa de subverter a ordem natural e moral estabelecida.
Não por acaso, tanto Karl Marx quanto Antonio Gramsci identificaram no cristianismo o principal obstáculo à realização de seus projetos revolucionários. Marx chamou a religião de "ópio do povo" porque sabia que uma alma ancorada em Deus não se submete facilmente ao poder terreno; Gramsci, mais sutil, propôs a destruição da cultura cristã como pré-condição para o triunfo do socialismo. Sem essa âncora transcendente, a sociedade torna-se presa fácil das engenharias sociais que pretendem redefinir arbitrariamente o homem, a família e a liberdade.
Conclusão
O libertário anticristão, consciente ou não, nega as fundações mesmas do edifício que habita. Ao rejeitar o cristianismo, cava o abismo sob os próprios pés, privando o ideal libertário de sua base moral, cultural e racional. Ele defende a ética voluntária, a liberdade individual e a ordem espontânea, mas sem o solo metafísico e histórico que torna esses princípios inteligíveis e possíveis. É um erro tentar preservar a liberdade em termos absolutos sem reconhecer as raízes cristãs que a sustentam, pois o cristianismo é a única tradição que a legitima e a viabiliza.
Negar o cristianismo é racionalmente insustentável. A liberdade, como a conhecemos, é filha da fé cristã, que oferece a base moral e metafísica que torna a liberdade tanto desejável quanto possível. Mesmo que ateu, o libertário que ama a liberdade deveria, no mínimo, respeitar — e, idealmente, redescobrir — essas raízes cristãs. Pois sem fé, restam apenas o niilismo e o relativismo, que, eventualmente, desaguam na servidão.
Como nos ensina a tradição: Ubi fides ibi libertas — onde há fé, há liberdade.

| |:-:| |MISSIAGGIA, Pietro; Jean Thiriart, el caballero euroasiático y la Joven Europa; Hipérbola Janus, 2025|
Desde nuestros inicios los autores y temáticas relacionadas con la geopolítica nos han procurado atención e interés por parte del gran público y de los mass media, y no hay más que recordar el efecto que han venido teniendo nuestras obras de Aleksandr Duguin, en especial La geopolítica de Rusia y Proyecto Eurasia: teoría y praxis, sobre todo a raíz de nuestra presentación en Casa de Rusia en un ya lejano 2016, con la inestimable colaboración de Jordi de la Fuente como prologuista, trabajo que siempre reivindicamos desde nuestros medios por el prestigio, la calidad y brillantez de exposición del mismo.
Más allá de las obras del prestigioso y afamado filósofo y politólogo ruso, también hemos realizado otras incursiones en esta vertiente, que podríamos llamar «geopolítica alternativa», introduciendo las obras de otros notables autores como Claudio Mutti, Carlo Terracciano o Boris Nad. Con estos autores hemos tratado de profundizar en esa vía que se opone frontalmente, y radicalmente si se quiere, a los planteamientos derivados de la geopolítica atlantista y liberal que tiene su principal polo en Estados Unidos, haciendo especial hincapié en el subyugamiento que vienen ejerciendo desde 1945 en adelante respecto a una Europa convertida en un protectorado en una mera colonia.
Es por este motivo por el que la publicación de Jean Thiriart, el caballero euroasiático y la Joven Europa nos parece una obra totalmente pertinente en estos momentos, forma parte del desarrollo lógico de la línea editorial en la que estamos encauzados desde nuestros inicios, y viene a representar una de las múltiples vías en las que confluye la idea, profundamente schmittiana, de la política de los grandes espacios. En este caso la idea de una Europa unida, bajo un vasto proyecto que traspasa los estrechos límites del continente concebido como un apéndice más del «Occidente», de ese subproducto ideológico decadente y funcional a los intereses del otro lado del Atlántico. Para comprender la idea de una Europa unida, que comprenda a Rusia, y su enorme extensión territorial a lo largo de 17 millones de kilómetros cuadrados, y la importancia estratégica de su ubicación, es necesario recurrir al legado de Jean Thiriart, conocer su obra, pero también al hombre, pues una no se comprende sin el otro, en este caso hablamos de elementos correlativos.

| |:-:| |Jean Thiriart (1922-1992)|
¿Pero quién fue Jean Thiriart? Esta obra nos permite adentrarnos en aspectos biográficos, algunos de ellos poco conocidos para el gran público de habla hispana, y saber de su trayectoria, de la maduración de sus ideas, de su proyecto político y de las etapas que componen el desarrollo del mismo y que aparecen claramente diferenciadas: hablamos del proyecto político de unidad europea, que alcanza su concreción teórica en ¡Arriba Europa!: Una Europa unida: un imperio de 400 millones de hombres (1965, Editorial Mateu, Barcelona), en pleno apogeo de la organización Jeune Europe, que se convirtió en el órgano político a partir del cual creyó poder implementar su proyecto unitario a escala europeo, manteniendo una posición de independencia respecto a los dos pretendidos bloques antagónicos de Guerra Fría: Estados Unidos y la Unión Soviética. En esa época, estamos hablando del ecuador de los años 60, todo el mundo de la Contracultura, falsamente contestatario, estaba articulando su propio discurso, que tendría su expresión más nítida a través del ya conocido Mayo del 68 francés o la Primavera de Praga, durante el mismo año. Y si el movimiento de Nueva Derecha liderado por Alain de Benoist surgiría en lo sucesivo, ya en la década de los años 70, como una «reacción» frente a la «rebelión contracultural», no podemos obviar la importancia de un movimiento político como Jeune Europe, una organización política transnacional, a escala de la Europa occidental, con sus diferentes delegaciones en países como Francia, Italia, Alemania, la propia España además de, como es obvio, Bélgica, país de origen de nuestro autor.
Jean Thiriart ha sido etiquetado con reiteración como un político y teórico de «extrema derecha», se han hecho numerosos discursos interesados para vincularlo, por cuestiones de orden biográfico muy circunscritas a determinado periodo, con el fascismo y el nacionalsocialismo de entreguerras. Sin embargo, y como el lector podrá descubrir a lo largo de la presente obra, el pensamiento de nuestro autor está muy lejos de ser reducible a meras etiquetas, y en ningún caso mostró las filiaciones que se le atribuyen desde posicionamientos ideológicos, sino que, muy al contrario, vemos a un hombre de pensamiento racional y pragmático, poderosamente influenciado por la geopolítica y abierto a alianzas estratégicas más variadas, más allá de todo fundamentalismo ideológico. Es por este motivo que veremos a un Thiriart buscando sinergias y entendimiento entre círculos de izquierdas, antiimperialistas en una lucha concebida como «cuatricontinental». No en vano, muchos de los cuadros políticos que se formaron en Giovane Europa, la rama italiana, terminaron por militar incluso en organizaciones de extrema izquierda de inspiración maoísta. En el caso de España hubo un notable apoyo a la organización por parte de los falangistas más disidentes. De manera que Jean Thiriart representa una figura política compleja, con influencias variadas, que van desde los hermanos Strasser, pasando por Ernst Niekish o Vilfredo Pareto, e incluso, por Sieyès o Robespierre.
Es a partir de Jeune Europe cuando el nacionalismo europeo, la idea de una Europa unida desde Brest a Bucarest toma cuerpo. En la obra mencionada con anterioridad (¡Arriba Europa!: Una Europa unida: un imperio de 400 millones de hombres) Jean Thiriart ya nos presenta a través de unos trazos muy definidos el proyecto del comunitarismo nacional-europeo, la piedra angular de su proyecto político. La idea de un socialismo aristocrático y europeo, trascendiendo las fronteras del Estado-nación liberal decimonónico, y los particularismos nacionales, concebidos como formas obsoletas y «estrechas de miras», obstáculos a superar en la convergencia del Imperio europeo. Porque vemos a un Thiriart que potencia la estructura del Estado, del aparato de poder, tratando de potenciar, y restaurar naturalmente, el papel y la preponderancia de Europa como espacio de civilización en el mundo. Es un nacionalismo europeo que viene determinado por razones puramente geopolíticas, algo que también fue objeto de críticas, concretamente por parte del geopolítico austriaco Heinrich von Lohausen, y que también recogemos en el presente volúmen de la obra.
|
| |:-:| |Ejemplar de una de las publicaciones más importantes de Joven Europa (Jeune Europe) cuya portada refleja el antiamericanismo y antiimperialismo característicos del nacionalismo europeo de la organización.|
En este sentido, Thiriart no andaba nada desencaminado, en la medida que pensaba que solo los Estados de dimensiones continentales podrían ser capaces de defender su independencia y soberanía, y ejercer un poder en el mundo, frente a los antiguos nacionalismos europeos, totalmente anacrónicos y un factor de ruptura y desintegración del potencial europeo. En este contexto, se hace necesario eliminar el orden establecido en Yalta en 1945, que convierte a Europa en un vasallo de las grandes potencias vencedoras de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. De modo que luchar contra la ocupación estadounidense por un lado, y soviética por otro lado, fuese el principal leitmotiv del Partido Revolucionario Europeo, un partido histórico señala Thiriart, encargado de llevar a término la acción unificadora continental. Y es con este propósito con el que se tratan de concertar una serie de alianzas internacionales que llevó a Thiriart y su organización a tratar con personal diplomático y gubernamental de los países árabes no alineados, del régimen de Fidel Castro o incluso con emisarios del gobierno chino, como ocurrió en el famoso encuentro propiciado por Ceaucescu en Bucarest con Zhou En-Lai.
Quizás, uno de los puntos donde más desacuerdos encontramos con las teorías thiriartianas se encuentra en ciertos fundamentos que la articulan, en un modelo racionalista, materialista y pragmático, de hecho no debemos olvidar que Maquiavelo era uno de sus referentes, y con éste la posterior hornada de autores neomaquiavélicos como Vilfredo Pareto. El excesivo pragmatismo de sus planteamientos, un estatalismo exacerbado y sin concesiones a las particularidades de los pueblos, una suerte de centralismo jacobino, y la ausencia de un elemento trascendente capaz de dar una justificación metafísica a todo el proyecto nacional europeo constituyen, en nuestra opinión, una parte discutible y reformulable.
En otro terreno, como pueda ser el puramente económico, encontramos un proyecto anticapitalista en muchos de sus aspectos, frente al democratismo parlamentario liberal, y apoyándose en las teorías económicas de Johann G. Fichte o Friedrich List, rechazando cualquier organización económica transnacional que pueda mediatizar o convertir a Europa en objeto de sus actividades usurocráticas y depredatorias, colocando la soberanía e independencia económica europea en una de las máximas prioridades en este terreno.
Debemos destacar, porque es un elemento de debate especialmente interesante, el apartado del libro que se corresponde al escrito de Luc Michel, publicado en Italia bajo el título Da Jeune Europe alle Brigate Rosse, en el libro Parte II Historia de Jeune Europe (1962-1969), en el que se detallan las colaboraciones que comenzaron a sucederse entre la militancia de la delegación italiana, Giovane Europa, y círculos de extrema izquierda maoísta, y cómo muchos de los antiguos militantes nacional-europeos terminaron militando en organizaciones de esta facción ideológica, y nos referimos a casos tan representativos en la época como Claudio Orsoni o Pino Bolzano entre otros muchos.
La actividad proselitista de Jeune Europe en el último lustro de la década de los años 60, con la fundación del Partido Comunitario Europeo, nos legó una gran cantidad de publicaciones, entre las cuales destacaron La Nation Européenne, La Nazione Europea o Europa Combattente, cuyas portadas han servido para ilustrar las páginas interiores de nuestra obra, y que procuraron una actividad proselitista y de difusión de ideas que llegaron a imprimir semanal y mensualmente varios miles de ejemplares en Francia o en Italia.
Tras agotar todas las vías posibles de alianzas y convergencias, con encuentros poco afortunados, vemos a un Thiriart que prefiere adoptar otras vías para seguir construyendo el proyecto nacional-europeo más allá de la fórmula activista y del partido político. Este es el motivo por el cual, en los siguientes años, ya en la última etapa de su vida, veremos esa transición del político activista al teórico y al ideólogo como parte de una nueva estrategia dentro del proyecto político al que consagró buena parte de su vida, y es un hecho que comienza a apreciarse desde mediados de los años 70. Durante esta época la «Europa de Brest a Bucarest» se transforma y amplía en una «Europa desde Dublín a Vladivostok». Thiriart aborda ya abiertamente la integración del espacio soviético en una Europa unida que abarca un inmenso espacio territorial, capaz de unir el Océano Atlántico y el Océano Pacífico de un extremo a otro, el «Imperio Eurosoviético». No obstante, Thiriart siempre piensa en términos geopolíticos, y considera que este proceso de integración debe llevarse a cabo desde una revisión de la ideología soviética, desde una marcada desmarxistización de su socialismo, purgado de todo dogmatismo y elementos condicionantes derivados de la teoría del Estado formulada por el marxismo-leninismo para tomar en su lugar aquella de Thomas Hobbes.
A partir de este momento solamente hay un enemigo, el que representa el poder estadounidense y el dominio que éste ejerce sobre la Europa occidental. A partir de ese momento la URSS, bajo las premisas apuntadas por Thiriart, y desde una ideología soviética «desmarxistizada», es la que debe asumir el proyecto de integración europea. Todo este enfoque terminará conociendo su colofón final al final de la vida de Jean Thiriart, cuando éste se encuentre ya en sus último año de vida, en 1992, con una Unión Soviética ya periclitada y disuelta, con un país sumido en una crisis económica, política y social bajo el gobierno decadente de Yeltsin, con un poder notablemente menguado y a merced de las potencias extranjeras y las apetencias de las organizaciones financieras transnacionales. En este contexto tendrá lugar el conocido viaje de Jean Thiriart a Moscú, donde se encontrará, además de con la disidencia de Yeltsin, encabezada por el Partido Comunista dirigido por Gennadij Ziuganov y numerosas personalidades públicas del ámbito ruso, entre las que destacará por encima de todos el filósofo y politólogo Aleksandr Duguin, quien en la presente obra también reivindica la figura del belga como un contribuidor directo del pensamiento euroasiático. Además de medios de prensa, políticos e intelectuales rusos, nuestro autor también compartirá espacio con una pequeña delegación de la revista italiana «Orion», especializada en temática geopolítica, y representada por el padre de la geopolítica italiana, Carlo Terracciano. El encuentro no tendrá mayores consecuencias, y vendrá a significar el último acto de servicio de Jean Thiriart en su denodado esfuerzo por lograr la integración de Europa y Rusia en un poderoso bloque geopolítico capaz de hacer frente a la hegemonía estadounidense en el mundo.
Terminaremos este breve y sintético escrito de presentación con un fragmento de la obra que Jean Thiriart publicó en 1965 bajo el título ¡Arriba Europa!: Una Europa unida: un imperio de 400 millones de hombres, que nos parece de lo más adecuado para poner el punto final al presente texto:
Europa, este MILAGRO en la historia del hombre, este milagro que siguió al milagro griego, ha dado vida, con la prodigiosa fecundidad de su civilización irrepetible, a una cultura adoptada por el mundo entero. En la competencia surgida entre las grandes civilizaciones —occidental, india, china y japonesa— la nuestra ha aplastado a las demás.
La civilización es creadora de cultura. La cultura, en cambio, jamás ha creado civilización.
SOLO Europa posee la civilización; de ahí deriva su supremacía sobre los Estados Unidos y la Rusia comunista, que poseen únicamente la cultura nacida de nuestra civilización, como ha demostrado magistralmente Oswald Spengler.
Esta cultura, separada de su civilización, está condenada a la esterilidad, la cual se manifestará primero mediante una esclerosis y, posteriormente, mediante un retorno a la barbarie.
Políticamente dominada por Moscú o por Washington, la civilización europea se ve asfixiada y corre el riesgo de estancarse en su estado de simple cultura. Basta notar que todos los descubrimientos en el campo nuclear y astronáutico son obra de europeos. Todos buscan a los científicos europeos.
Solo una Europa políticamente unida puede proveer los medios de poder que garantizarán las condiciones históricas indispensables para la supervivencia de esta civilización.
Ninguna otra potencia, por otra parte, podría sustituir a Europa en su misión hacia la humanidad.

2025-05-07 15:09:39Az Európai Bizottság terve az orosz urán- és energiafüggőség felszámolására
Az Európai Bizottság bejelentette, hogy korlátozni kívánja az új urán-, dúsított urán- és egyéb, Oroszországból származó nukleáris anyagokra vonatkozó ellátási szerződéseket, ezzel is elősegítve, hogy az Európai Unió „teljesen megszüntesse” az orosz energiától való függését[8][6][2].
A Bizottság új ütemtervet mutatott be, amely részletesen tartalmazza, hogyan kívánja megszüntetni az orosz energiafüggőséget, miközben biztosítja az EU energiaellátásának és árainak stabilitását[6][2][15].
Főbb intézkedések és célok
- Az EU az orosz gázimport arányát 45%-ról 19%-ra csökkentette a 2022 májusában indított REPowerEU tervnek köszönhetően, de 2024-ben ismét növekedett az orosz gáz behozatala[2][20].
- Az új ütemterv szerint az orosz olaj, gáz és nukleáris energia fokozatosan, összehangoltan és biztonságosan kerül ki az uniós piacokról, miközben az EU a tiszta energiára való átállást gyorsítja fel[6][15][7].
- Az EU-tagállamoknak 2025 végéig nemzeti terveket kell készíteniük arról, hogyan járulnak hozzá az orosz gáz, nukleáris energia és olaj importjának megszüntetéséhez[13][7][18].
- Az orosz eredetű urán, dúsított urán és egyéb nukleáris anyagok esetében új korlátozásokat vezetnek be: az Euratom Ellátási Ügynökség (ESA) nem hagy jóvá új orosz beszállítási szerződéseket, és gazdasági eszközökkel is igyekeznek visszaszorítani az importot[4][5][16].
- A meglévő rövid távú szerződéseket 2025 végéig meg kell szüntetni, új szerződéseket pedig nem lehet kötni; a hosszú távú szerződéseket 2027 végéig kell felmondani[5][7][6].
- Az intézkedések célja, hogy a teljes orosz gáz- és olajimport 2027 végéig megszűnjön, az orosz atomenergia pedig fokozatosan kivezetésre kerüljön[3][9][17].
Nukleáris háttér
- Az ESA jelentése szerint 2023-ban az EU-ban felhasznált természetes urán 23,4%-a érkezett Oroszországból, ami 72,6%-os növekedést jelentett, főként a VVER típusú orosz atomerőművek üzemanyag-felhalmozása miatt[16].
- Az EU-ban 19 VVER reaktor működik (Bulgáriában, Csehországban, Finnországban, Magyarországon és Szlovákiában).
- Az EU természetes uránszükséglete a globális igények mintegy 22%-át teszi ki, a beszerzések 91%-a Kanadából, Oroszországból, Kazahsztánból és Nigerből származik[16].
Célkitűzés és indoklás
A Bizottság szerint az orosz energiafüggőség felszámolása nemcsak gazdasági, hanem biztonságpolitikai kérdés is, mivel Oroszország többször is eszközként használta az energiát az EU-val szemben[2][12]. A lépések célja, hogy az EU energiaellátása biztonságos, stabil és kiszámítható maradjon, miközben az orosz energiaimportból származó bevételek ne finanszírozhassák tovább az Ukrajna elleni háborút[6][2][12].

2025-05-17 05:14:41The cryptocurrency landscape, once dominated by wild price swings and volatile tokens like Bitcoin and Ethereum, is witnessing a quiet but seismic shift. Stablecoins cryptocurrencies pegged to traditional assets like the U.S. dollar are increasingly taking center stage. While not as flashy as their high-flying cousins, stablecoins are proving to be the most functional and widely adopted segment of the crypto universe. Simply put: stablecoins are eating crypto.
What are stablecoins?
Stablecoins are digital assets designed to maintain a stable value relative to a fiat currency or commodity. The most popular stablecoins, such as Tether (USDT), USD Coin (USDC), and DAI, are typically pegged 1:1 to the U.S. dollar. Their stability makes them ideal for transactions, trading, and storing value, especially in the notoriously volatile crypto markets.
There are three main types of stablecoins:
- Fiat-collateralized: Backed by reserves of fiat currencies held in bank accounts.
- Crypto-collateralized: Backed by other cryptocurrencies, usually overcollateralized to handle volatility.
- Algorithmic: Maintain their peg through supply-and-demand algorithms without actual reserves (e.g., the failed TerraUSD).
The rise in utility
What started as a tool for traders to hedge volatility has become the backbone of decentralized finance (DeFi), cross-border remittances, and even some central bank strategies. Stablecoins now play multiple roles:
- Medium of exchange: Unlike Bitcoin, which is rarely used in daily transactions due to its fluctuating price, stablecoins are ideal for payments.
- Liquidity providers: In DeFi, stablecoins serve as the base currency for lending, borrowing, and yield farming.
- Trading pairs: A large percentage of crypto trading volume is denominated in stablecoins, not in Bitcoin or fiat.
Growing market share
As of mid-2025, stablecoins represent a multi-hundred-billion-dollar market. Tether remains the largest by market cap, followed by USDC. Their total volume now rivals or in some days, exceeds that of Bitcoin and Ethereum. According to data from multiple crypto analytics platforms, stablecoins accounted for more than 70% of on-chain transaction volume in early 2025, highlighting their dominance in practical use cases.
Central banks and regulation
Stablecoins are also reshaping conversations around monetary sovereignty. Central banks are watching closely, with some developing their own Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) to compete. Meanwhile, regulators are scrambling to craft frameworks to oversee stablecoin issuers, particularly around reserve transparency and systemic risk.
The U.S. and EU are working toward legislation requiring stablecoin issuers to hold audited 1:1 reserves and submit to regular oversight, essentially treating them like narrow banks. The goal: harness the efficiency of stablecoins without compromising financial stability.
Why stablecoins are winning
- Trust and predictability: In crypto, stability is a feature, not a bug. Traders and users prefer assets they can rely on for everyday transactions.
- Interoperability: Stablecoins are blockchain-agnostic and can be used across multiple networks like Ethereum, Solana, and Polygon.
- Programmability: They bring the efficiency of smart contracts to money itself, enabling automated, low-cost transactions.
- Global access: Stablecoins offer dollar exposure to users in countries with unstable local currencies, providing financial inclusion with just a smartphone.
The ironic future
Ironically, the original vision of cryptocurrencies decentralized, uncensorable money has been somewhat sidelined by stablecoins, which often rely on centralized issuers and custodians. The dream of Bitcoin as digital cash is being fulfilled not by Bitcoin itself, but by stablecoins. That paradox lies at the heart of stablecoins’ quiet conquest.
Conclusion
Stablecoins may not grab headlines like Bitcoin bull runs or Ethereum upgrades, but their steady, practical growth is transforming crypto from a speculative playground into a functional financial ecosystem. As regulation crystallizes and usage continues to rise, stablecoins are not just part of the crypto industry they're becoming its foundation. And in doing so, they're slowly but surely eating the rest of crypto alive.

2025-05-17 03:21:54ยังมีเรื่องราวของน้ำตาล และ เซลล์ มาคุยกันต่อนะครับ เพราะยังมีคนสงสัยอยู่ว่า เอ้ย ตกลงต้องห่วงการ Spike&Staylong ของอินซุลินอยู่หรือเปล่า แล้วถ้าเราไม่ spike&staylong ก็คือกินคาร์บเบาๆตลอดวันได้เลยใช่ไหมก็มันไม่ spike&staylong แล้วนี่ โอเคครับ เรามาเปิดผับกันอีกครั้ง
คราวก่อนนั้นเราคุยกันเรื่อง ผับน้ำตาลกันไปแล้วนะครับว่า เมื่ออินซูลิน spike สูง และค้างนาน เหมือนเปิดผับแล้ววัยรุ่นแห่กันเข้ามาเที่ยว จนพีอาร์เมาจัด
เผื่อใครจำไม่ได้ ย้อนให้นิดๆครับ ว่าให้ลองนึกภาพว่าเฮียเปิดผับอยู่ดี ๆ ลูกค้าหลั่งไหลเข้ามารัว ๆ เหมือนมีโปรเบียร์ 1 แถม 10 ตอนสามทุ่ม ทุกโต๊ะสั่งข้าวเหนียวหมูปิ้งพร้อมเบียร์น้ำแข็งเต็มโต๊ะ นักเที่ยวก็ยังแห่เข้าผับแบบไม่มีพัก อินซูลินซึ่งเป็นเหมือน “พีอาร์” ที่ต้องจัดการรับแขก (หรือรับน้ำตาลเข้าสู่เซลล์) ก็เลยต้องทำงานหนักแบบ non-stop
อินซูลินเป็นฮอร์โมนสำคัญที่ช่วยเอาน้ำตาลในเลือดเข้าไปเก็บในเซลล์ ถ้า spike ทีเดียวสูงมาก เซลล์ก็รีบดูดน้ำตาลเข้าไปเต็มที่จนเกินพิกัด เหมือนผับที่แน่นจนปิดประตูไม่ลง
ถ้าเหตุการณ์แบบนี้เกิดขึ้นบ่อย ๆ ร่างกายจะเริ่มรู้สึกว่า “ทำไมอินซูลินถึงต้องออกมาบ่อยขนาดนี้วะ?” ระบบก็เริ่มปิดรับแขก เซลล์เริ่มไม่อยากตอบสนอง เพราะมันเหนื่อย มันชิน และมันก็เริ่ม “ดื้ออินซูลิน”
ผลที่ตามมาเมื่อ spike สูงและค้าง สิ่งที่ตามมา... คือความปั่นป่วนในร่างกายอย่างต่อเนื่อง น้ำตาลลอยค้างในเลือด ไปจับกับโปรตีนจนกลายเป็นเจ้า AGEs ตัวร้าย ไขมันก็ถูกสร้างมากขึ้น ล้นเข้าไปสะสมในตับ ในพุง ในซอกที่ร่างกายไม่รู้จะเก็บไว้ตรงไหนแล้ว สมองก็เบลอ ใจวูบ ง่วงงุน... เหมือนเข้าเวรประชุมยาวแบบไม่มีกาแฟ ฮอร์โมนที่เคยเป็นทีมงานสามัคคี ก็เริ่มทะเลาะกันเอง อินซูลินงอน leptin งง ghrelin งวย
แล้วถ้าเราไม่ spike แต่กินคาร์บจุ๋มจิ๋มทั้งวันล่ะ? พอรู้ว่าการเปิดผับแจกคาร์บแบบจัดหนักไม่ดี หลายคนก็ปรับกลยุทธ์ใหม่ มาแนวสายสุขุมว่า “งั้นเปิดผับแบบเนิบ ๆ ก็แล้วกัน… ไม่จัดปาร์ตี้ใหญ่ แต่มีแขกแวะเข้ามาทั้งวัน” ฟังดูดีใช่ไหม? แต่เอาเข้าจริง มันเหนื่อยไม่แพ้กันเลย
ลองนึกภาพว่าประเทศไม่มีเคอร์ฟิว เฮียเปิดผับที่มีลูกค้าเดินเข้าออกไม่หยุด ไม่ได้มากันเป็นฝูงแบบรอบโปรโมชั่น แต่มาเรื่อย ๆ แบบชั่วโมงละโต๊ะ สองโต๊ะ พีอาร์ อินซูลิน ก็เลยต้องยืนต้อนรับแขกตลอดเวลา ไม่มีเวลานั่งพัก ไม่มีช่วงเปลี่ยนกะ ไม่มีเวลาปิดไฟเก็บโต๊ะ คือทำงานต่อเนื่องยาว ๆ ตั้งแต่ 8 โมงเช้า ยัน 8 โมงเช้า สุดท้าย ผับก็เปิดไฟยันสว่าง อินซูลินก็กลายเป็นพนักงานกะดึกตลอดชีพ และเมื่อไม่มีเวลา “พักผับ” ระบบหลังบ้านก็ไม่เคยได้ฟื้นฟูเลย
ภาพรวมของการกินจุ๋มจิ๋มทั้งวันแบบนี้นั้น - เผาผลาญไขมันไม่ออกเลย เพราะอินซูลินทำหน้าที่เหมือนไฟบนเวที ถ้ายังเปิดไฟอยู่ “เครื่องดูดไขมันหลังร้าน” มันก็ไม่ทำงาน - แม่บ้านทำความสะอาดก็เข้าไม่ได้ เพราะแขกเดินเข้าเดินออกตลอด ระบบกำจัดที่ควรจะได้ล้างของเสียในเซลล์ ก็เลยโดนขัดจังหวะตลอด - พนักงานเหนื่อยสะสมจากงานไม่มีหยุด ทำให้เกิดความเครียดสะสมในร่างกาย ฮอร์โมนรวน อารมณ์ก็แปรปรวนง่ายขึ้น หิวเก่งขึ้น ทั้งที่เพิ่งกินไป
เปิดผับแบบคึกคักจัดเต็มทีเดียว แล้วปิดยาว หรือ เปิดทั้งวันแบบไม่มีช่วงปิด สุดท้ายพังทั้งคู่
ทีนี้เราน่าจะพอเห็นภาพร่างคร่าวๆ ของการบริหารการจัดการน้ำตาลในตัวเราได้แล้วนะครับ ว่าจะไดเอทไหนก็ตาม การบริหารการจัดการฮอร์โมนส์ คือสิ่งสำคัญไม่แพ้เรื่องอื่นๆ แม้จะไม่ใช่เรื่องสำคัญที่สุดในสายตาใครก็ตาม
นี่เป็นเพียงจุดเริ่มต้นการเรียนรู้เล็กๆ ซึ่งเส้นทางสายที่เรียกว่า ร่างกาย มันยังไปไกลอีกลิบลับเลยครับ ไม่ว่าจะจังหวัดคอติซอล จังหวัดพฤกษเคมี จังหวัดพลังงาน จังหวัดสารอาหาร แถมลักษณะร่างกายแต่ละคน ก็เปรียบเหมือนรถต่างยี่ห้อ ต่างน้ำมันขับเคลื่อน ต่างซีซี หรือแม้ว่าจะเหมือนกัน ก็ยังต่างปี ต่างไมล์การขับขี่

2025-05-06 05:17:07*Holtec új atomenergetikai együttműködése Utah államban*
Az amerikai Holtec International stratégiai megállapodást kötött Utah állammal és a Hi Tech Solutions nukleáris szolgáltatóval, hogy elősegítse saját fejlesztésű, SMR-300 típusú kis moduláris reaktorainak (SMR) telepítését Utahban és az Egyesült Államok Mountain West régiójában. A megállapodás értelmében 2028-ig állandó képzési központot hoznak létre Utahban, amely az üzemeltetéshez, karbantartáshoz és az új generációs nukleáris technológiákhoz szükséges munkaerő képzését célozza, szoros együttműködésben helyi egyetemekkel, főiskolákkal és szakiskolákkal.
A projekt Utah állam energetikai stratégiájának („Operation Gigawatt” és „Built Here”) része, amely a következő tíz évben megduplázná az állam energiatermelését, kiemelt szerepet szánva a tiszta nukleáris energiának. A Holtec Utah-t választotta nyugati gyártóbázisának is, ezzel erősítve az amerikai nukleáris ellátási láncot és hosszú távú munkahelyeket teremtve. A cég a 2030-as években akár 4 GW összkapacitású SMR-300 telepítését tervezi főként Utahban és Wyomingban.
Az SMR-300 egy nyomottvizes reaktor, amely 300 MW villamos vagy 1050 MW hőteljesítményt biztosít, és a Holtec tervei szerint kulcsszerepet játszhat a tiszta, szén-dioxid-mentes energiatermelésben.
*Amerikai SMR-piac helyzete*
Az SMR-technológia az utóbbi években került a figyelem középpontjába, mivel gyorsabban és olcsóbban telepíthető, mint a hagyományos atomerőművek, és lehetőséget kínál magánbefektetők számára is. Ugyanakkor az első amerikai SMR-projekt, a NuScale és a Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems közös beruházása költségnövekedés miatt meghiúsult, ami rávilágított a technológia gazdasági kihívásaira.
Nemzetközi fejlemények és további hírek
- Az ausztrál Okapi Resources és az Urenco együttműködési megállapodást kötött új urán dúsítási technológia fejlesztésére, amely tisztább és olcsóbb dúsítási eljárást ígér.
- Az Argonne National Laboratory sikeresen kicserélt egy 30 éves kulcsfontosságú alkatrészt a nátriumhűtésű gyorsreaktor-tesztberendezésében, ami hozzájárulhat a gyorsreaktor-technológia fejlesztéséhez az Egyesült Államokban.
- A Tennessee Egyetem ösztöndíjprogramot indít a Fülöp-szigeteki nukleáris szakemberek képzésére, támogatva ezzel a délkelet-ázsiai ország nukleáris energiafejlesztési törekvéseit.
- Bulgáriában a Westinghouse Electric Company helyi beszállítókkal kötött megállapodásokat két új AP1000 típusú reaktor építéséhez a kozloduji atomerőműben.
