I’d contend that money(any fiat), like Bitcoin, like gold has no intrinsic value.

Historic precedence doesn’t exist... till it does.

No one wants to carry around chickens to trade.

The value of a monetary asset is in its interoperability, and backers of Bitcoin are working to enable that to a high degree.

Nice!

These are being built directly into ethereum and cardamom now.

No one is entitled a Twitter account as a freedom. You can use Twitter as a service if you abide the terms of service.

Trump violated the terms of service repeatedly for years, he has finally been banned.

TLDR: Take your antioxidants outside of your workout and recovery window.

The bodies response to working out is based on the challenge/damage and antioxidants reduce that.

There a reason these links are unclickable?

Because they act as a stand alone entity, and they may make and keep profit that doesn’t get dispersed to the employees.

Oh, well that clears that up. :)

Notepad is still my favorite website design app.

The only country to truly “win” the war on drugs.

Where ever you like. As the founder, you get to draw that line.

There are examples of different perspectives that you can apply through this thread, but as the founder(s) it is part of your job to decide this.

Depending on your intent fasting can be for a lot of things.

The health benefits of fasting aren’t about total calorie restriction, but ARE about shifting when you eat to allow your body to kick over into the fasted state for a period of time to get the benefits of that.

I practice a 24 hour fast once a week, for spiritual and health benefits, not to lose weight, and enjoy a very full dinner after the 24 hour fast.

Ramadan looks very much to me to be about fasting, at least spiritually.

Great point.

I can only hope..

Not at all. It encourages you to contemplate something that we will all face, and through contemplation, use the time you have, better now.

That’s awesome dude!

Wow...

With meditation it absolutely does. What you aim at in meditation guides your results.

Great Article on journaling.

This is critical. Personally as a result I’ve lost trust with the organization, and the statements they make.

Cool and exciting. Carmack has a level of brilliance that I find astounding.

Some of his youtube video's of him talking about graphic rendering and compression are really cool.

Cool!

I love that quote.

Sad facts.

I’d like to read as well.

This is an interesting article, but it doesn't talk about the pitfalls of sears, or the failings that have lead sears to where they are at now.

Wow... I found this article, particularly well written and enjoyable, not favoring the usual (UP WITH WOMEN, DOWN WITH MEN) rhetoric that seems fairly common in some circles on the internet.

The final paragraph is particularly poignant:

"It may be true, as developmental research suggests, that boys tend to be more active and take longer, on average, to learn to control their impulses. But those are challenges that well-trained teachers and informed parents should be able to handle. Boys are not defective; schools are. The fact that boys are struggling around the world means that too many schools are designed with a bias for girls. Too many teachers prefer compliance over competition, quiet diligence over risk-taking, and on average that leads to schools that are more comfortable for girls than for boys in every time zone. But given the world they are inheriting, just as boys need to learn to focus, girls need to learn to take risks.

And neither can thrive in a world where the other is diminished."

There is a theory called Gresham's Law, that states that bad money drives out good, because people hoard the good money.

This is one of the problems with bitcoin right now. As a currency its variability AND value is high, which leads to people not wanting to spend it.

This ironically leads to a problem with the currency not being used.

There are other problems, but for its wide spread acceptance and use to buy pizza, I sure don't want to spend something that is worth 1$ today, but might be worth 100$ tomorrow.
