Carbon is a "Long-Tail" asset: the residual earnings that come from an asset after it has had its initial market impact.
The Carbon Cascade converts labile into recalcitrant carbon.
During transformation power is generated and lands restored.
Total production of biomass per annum is 100 billion tons of carbon and at $500 to $2,000 per ton of biochar that's $100 trillion of potential carbon trading on the open market. (fanciful to be sure)

A few months ago, an Uber driver alerted me to [the presence of his rival](https://stacker.news/items/687682/r/k00b?commentId=688882). By that point, [Waymo had been testing in Austin](https://waymo.com/blog/2023/08/waymo-one-heads-to-austin/) for over a year. I hid my excitement during the ride but I applied as a beta tester, noting my belonging to the demographics a PM might test for. My application went ignored until, huzzah, Waymo sent me an email yesterday announcing [their self-driving cars are available directly through Uber in Austin](https://waymo.com/waymo-on-uber/).
I configured my allegiance to our new overlords swearing in on my screened sandwich of silicon.
Without willing it, and having forgot my new religion, I woke earlier than planned today and hailed a ride. The app spoke to me, "if you wait 3 minutes longer, we'll send you a car without a driver." For five minutes, I watched a car but not a driver move in the direction of me and my screen.
The ride was nice. I didn't have to theatrically rush to a waiting human. There was less social weirdness than I would normally sit with on a ride. I could inspect the car without risking the driver sense that I'm inspecting them. The car couldn't look at me buffering, deciphering if I am homeless or merely look it. I got to pick my own music. I got to watch people un-contacted by Waymo watch the car.
But ... it drove a lot more like a robot driving a car than a human driving a car. It pumped the brakes a few times as we passed weirdly parked cars uncertain (apparently) if the car might move into our lane. Once it signaled that we were headed into oncoming traffic as a street widened from one lane to two. Worst of all, it dropped me off near an anomalous stretch of sidewalk where my door opened to a wall, and if I were to climb and get out the other side, I'd arrive in the middle lane of a busy street. Trapped, I pinched myself through the door and, like Laura Croft, navigated the road's edge to a sidewalk.
tbh I'm still excited for my next Waymo ride. I'll just choose a different drop-off address.

I was reminded of this comic this morning. Very relevant to this day.
The losers suddenly fear the government. Or rather the current administration. Those that used to fear the government falsely believe they can wield it to do "good". This is an illusion. Like the Ring of Power it has no master. The only winner is the state. It grows more powerful.

[The Bitcoin Trail](https://thebitcointrail.space/)
your tombstone - 1000 sats - the player will run into it along the trail just like the original game, your nym from stacker.news will be featured and I might write you an epitaph
your tombstone with baller epitaph - 5000 sats - same thing, but I promise to put some time into writing your epitaph and you can make some requests about it
Just shoot me a dm with the amount of sats and your requested epitaph if it applies.
