Jaded since a mere kid.. The math teachers stole your childhood.
By no means. Why would I let them do that? |

That's the start of your having had become so damned jaded, perhaps?
No doubt. |

We had classroom contests to complete the worksheet fastest. The speed of my handwriting was the limiting factor in how fast I could complete it.
Ever do that one where the first instruction is to read all the questions and the last question is to ignore all those other questions, write your name on the sheet and then do nothing else? I made myself look like a high-speed jackass on that one. No regrets though  |

Common core math..
I think it’s rediculous how they try to teach solving math like that in the first place, but when I look at common core teachings it is like the processes I use to do math in my head..
132X50?
(132/2)100=66x100=6600 <in my head
Does that make sense?
Yes, I found the same thing. It looks weird but that's because the optimizations I made in my head were not the same as the way I was taught to do it on paper. |

As a kid they gave us a math text book in first grade. It had the work in it from sept 1962 to June 1963.
I loved math so much that I finish all the chapters with all the problems by October 1st.
We had a book called "7 a day" with 7 problems in each section. I'd usually run through multiple sections each lesson and then they put me in the "8 a day" book. I learned then that hard work is often rewarded only by more hard work. The teacher would also chastise me for not showing my workings but to me, there were no workings in something like 42/7. Back in the day there were no calculators so multiplication tables were supposed to be memorized from 1 x 1 up to 12 x 12
a grid that was 12 by 12.
once I memorized it I made a multiplication table from 1 x 1 to 20 x 20 and memorized it.
Yep, we had those. For some reason I had a blind spot for 7x7. Long since remedied, of course. Once you get beyond the 12x12 table, you can usually work them out in your head pretty quickly but nothing wrong with a bit of memorization. |

The problem with this line of reasoning is that the most intuitive solution is: All means of production, not only labor, should be in the hands of the laborers. That's communism, or some variation thereof.
Yes, doesn't really pass the litmus test of slavery which is the inability to walk away (unless one considers being subject to natural processes like thermodynamics and gravity to be slavery). Also most people put the "collar" around their own neck Personally, I could live in the house I own and grow and kill my own food to my own benefit but I'd still have to stump up $ in taxes so if there's any slavery, it's right there. |

The Jamie Dimon clown show contra indicator:  Just underscores the old adage of it's not what you know, it's who you know. Meanwhile, where five years ago, mentioning Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation when it came up in forums would typically be met with poo-pooing or countering with suggestions of gold five years ago. These days, no pushback or maybe someone pushing shitcoins at the most. |

I don't understand why any long term holders are selling at these levels. The rocket is just igniting and weve already been at this level this year.
.... the real question is what are they buying that they think will serve them better than bitcoin? You can't eat a bitcoin or take it with you. |

if you are willing or able, you can borrow the mobile phone of your wife, gf, child or parents for these few minutes and quickly take a photo  that's how it was in my case too, and certainly with the other two bros as well   I've heard that some people possess a new kind of device where they have separated the picture taking functionality from the phone into its own module. My sources say that this may be called a "camera" |

Funny how things went from:
"Bitcoiners" ---> "Bitcoin maximalists" ---> "Toxic Bitcoin maximalists"
The MSM trolls and shills hard at work astroturfing, gaslighting, and labeling a group as 'toxic', to push the public away from one thing (bitcoin) and towards another (shitcoins).
It must be working. Shitcoin communities are toxic circlejerks full of cognitive dissonance and delusional hopium.
This is SOP these days. Everything is filtered through the lens of the writer's agenda and no attempt at journalistic detachment is made. Sad times. |

So, are "toxic bitcoin maximalists" only considered to be toxic by shitcoiners that don't get that shitcoins are shitcoins? I was wrapping my mind around this randomly appearing term too much in the last few days. In other news: Ants at work Toxic = "I don't agree with you but don't have a good argument to put forward either". Not that there aren't toxic people out there but when you see it used like this... |

Looks like Gold prices are finally starting to feel the upward push of inflationary policy. I think our BTC rise so far this month has been more of a self fulfilling prophecy situation. Price going up because everyone is expecting it to go up Oct. through Dec. But now Gold is showing the natural effects of money printer go brrr and we'll start to see BTC accelerate in its uppity climb.
Anyone buying "gold" without holding shiny metal in their grubby paws is in for a shock when they open the vaults. |

More like: "I am taking back the rainbow for Christians”
Pretty ballsy to be waving the symbol of gods promise not to flood the earth again in his face like that.. Methinks..
ARE you an A-hole just because some people think your are one?
What about the people who thing they are A-holes for using that symbol? Are they all A-holes because some people think they are?
I guess it depends on whose opinions you give a shit about, if any..
Taking back the rainbow for stoners  Nobody owns rainbows, they're a natural phenomenon. I do have a particular issue with the way the alphabet people are using it because they originally were using it to promote tolerance but now it's all about exclusion and all sorts of nonsense. |
