Bitcoin 30 day historic volatility has been falling fast and is in the 20's. In the past it has hit 20% vol 7 times. 6 times prices exploded higher immediately and vol hit 80% in a few months. 1 time (Nov 2018) prices fell sharply. Either way, a big move is coming soon.

Yes and no.
It would of course be ideal to achieve "herd immunity" but there are downsides of the procedure as well as the problem of mutation.
Like the flu, you can't actually get herd immunity, and it also does a lot of damage to the economy because of people lying sick at home, not able to work.
Herd immunity against the current circulating strains of SARS2, yes. Herd immunity forever? No. This comes at a price of taking out some % of global economic power, and it also has to be a global approach, because how could you explain country A to let people in from country B, who for example are currently herd immunizing, bringing in high infection/spreading rates? Just as a simple example of global covid complexity.

Covid is still seen too much as a national problem. It's in fact a global one, in a globalized economy, many people don't see this.
We'll have to swallow, either way. There seems to be no "best practice" for all of us.
I'm only replying to you because i think you're one of the sane members on board of the WO ship  Smiley
I'll back off the discussion as soon as polarization or covid-denial posts show up Roll Eyes

Definitely yes. I watched the whole thing, so I'll just dismiss your post, doctor.

Btw, it's a political problem. World wide social & political problem. And I surely don't deny it, nor swallow.

Yep because people choose to believe that it is political it then becomes political.

BTW it would all be solved if people simple stopped fucking for about a decade.

Once there are no babies people would start to become valuable as a limited resource much like BTC is non inflationary.

Just think as a human the single best action you can do is have any kind of sex, but intercourse.  Solves many of  the worlds problems. Actually gives power to the people not the politicians or big business.

Can you imagine the world population shrinking to a sustainable size and every simply having a lot of fun sex?

The chances of that are the chances of me picking a key at random and finding a 10 btc address.

Politics did actually achieve something similar in China with the one child policy. Of course it wasn't done by convincing people but by force. In India they're doing it unintentionally by aborting millions of girls, less wombs => less babies.

And as politics are on the top of our "freedom", of course it's a political problem, also in the first place.

1

Everybody taking a serious approach is worth to hear, correct.

2

If we weren't still so primitive in our very nature, we could probably well live together without those corrupt idiots on top that repeatedly ruin everything they put their hands on.

3

I don't really agree with that statement. Cos if it were so, people would be awake - and they are not.
They're too scared to think straight and skip the bullshit, not to mention being highly manipulated.

I choose to believe that I'm Jesus fucking Christ, and (for the argument's sake) people believe that too, does that make me Jesus? NO.
I didn't choose to live in fear. [I don't]
I didn't choose to social distance. [that either]
I didn't choose to get financially rekt and have the nanny state spoon feed me. [I didn't, but only because I'm a bitcoiner]

Yet all the above were politically enforced upon us, for what? For nothing, people casually die anyway.


BTW it would all be solved if people simple stopped fucking for about a decade.

[trolling mode ON]
Hey philipma, maybe we should stop eating and drinking altogether, that would take care of things ... faster!
What are the chances of that?::Finding the keys to the Genesis block, and ... spending that block reward too. Tongue

#Bitcoin  after the Halving

148 days after the 3rd halving.
#BTC  at $10,631.

The volatility is getting pretty low these days...

At least you don't need to think twice about when it is the best time to stack sats. 🤷‍♂️

So fortunately/unfortunately we can't just keep going like this...  I suppose the usual resolution is a downward break after this many tests...  But I dunno. We are not in a bear right now, I'd think.

YES!!! ANAL FOR ALL!!!  Grin  Grin #nohomo Cool

 
Roll Eyes Seriously:
Sex is not that simple. There are reasons why most humans prefer intercourse. Reasons almost beyond control. Neurotransmitters, hormones, endorphines...
You can't just "control" that. Life does not become simple just by looking at it in a simple way. Likewise, things don't become political because people choose to believe so.
Everything human is awfully complex. If you don't respect that, you probably never get real problems solved real well. Maybe by accident, but on the rarest of occasions, if we look at our history.

Now for the important part:
Our population never was meant to shrink. In fact, there is no "overgrow" of humans, but the sick politic and economic systems that don't work for an expanding population. These systems were made to work for a few and enslave the rest. Global food production would cover 9 billion people's needs twice. Still, look how many people are starving. A difference between Africa and America, as an example, is that people are comparably well educated, so they must be tricked into believing to be "free" (among other helpful beliefs).
The inhere sickness of servicing the few, instead of servicing the many, is the real problem of the world's politics.
And see, they already tricked you by believing that the population growth is to blame. Also, the systems are made in ways that you can't really change. You can just replace them. And that might be as a long way as it came to be like it is today. Thousands of years. And it depends on educating and training people to handle primitive motivations like greed, fear, hate from the start of life until they have grown up. Then we might eventually be able to make it work for all of us, not just a few.

See, bitcoin is solving systemic problems at the root. That's why it will win the fight, the fight that was started by the few.
This is a key example how to transfer power from the few to the many. As long as the many manage to stop fighting each other, the few will lose.
The few are well aware of that, so they manipulate the many into feeling greed, hate, fear (...) about each other.
the many can't simply take over power by trying to become like the few.

I hope you got my point, i'm feeling really bad at expressing things today  Grin

Over population is not the problem. The problem is most.people dont understand the power they have over the elite world leaders. JUST stop feeding the system new people for a decade and world.leaders would lose control over people.  Managing thousands by making them fight for resources has been done for thousands of years. The single.greatest resource for world.leaders is an abundance of people.  Ten years of hand jobs, blow jobs,muff jobs , rim jobs would create a shortage of people for leaders.to manipulate. Leader would need to alter their methods of control. I am sure they would.

OK, let it put me this way then:

If you try to control a part of a complex system (aka. the problem) by making single, simple and widespread changes, you will most likely fail, if not introduce bigger problems than the ones you originally wanted to solve.

This is roughly the essence of complex system theory. In fact, our linear thinking (put action A to make state B become state C) puts us in a bad position to become successful in a complex system.

degenerate < L. degener, ‘inferior to your ancestors, who would choose abortion if they could see you now; downfallen in (genetic) quality’, < de-, ‘away from’ + genus, ‘birth (in the sense of family), origin, class, species/race’, from the same root as gens, ‘tribe, clan, family’.

The source of my disgust should be readily apparent to anyone who has ever observed the tenacity with which all healthy female viviparous creatures struggle over asperities in a gravid state—or who has seen the grief borne by women who suffer spontaneous abortions (also known as miscarriages).  To propose as lighthearted comedy that everybody should just fuck, fuck, fuck and abort the results is definitionally degenerate.

Now, to avoid a red herring:  I am not arguing the abortion issue as it is misperceived in modern American politics.  Indeed, I think that abortion should be legal (perhaps even mandatory) for exactly the types of people who want it.

Just call that evolution in action, the culling of weakness and sickness:  Women who choose to abort their young are ipso facto unfit to have young.  It is one of those self-solving, or at least self-limiting problems—like suicide cults, which I also think should be legal—and like drugs, which should be legalized pronto!

combined with the exclusion of known drug users from all health insurance, welfare, and assistance with food and housing.  Drug abuse would quickly prove itself to be a strictly self-limiting problem.

Druggies, don’t whine.  I am supporting your freedom to kill yourselves!

Being not a Christian, of course I am not inclined to weep for the souls of the poor little babies who, if they ever could have attained consciousness, should be grateful never to have been born to such degenerate, manifestly unfit mothers as would kill them in the womb.



Do you suitably inform females of that attitude of yours before you do anything that has any nonzero probability of causing pregnancy?

Yes, and I make them sign a standard waiver as well. Out of curiosity, do you always refer to women as females? I heard they think that's, like, really hot.

The use of the word “female” is now politically incorrect?  I didn’t get the memo.

My insistence that females damn well have a right to know your attitude toward abortion, before you bring your male gametes anywhere near them, is interpreted by you as somehow derogatory or disrespectful to them?

It is a question of informed consent.

For my part, I have discovered empirically that my sincere willingness to take mature adult responsibility in the event of unplanned pregnancy is indeed “really hot”.  Women go wild for that!  It is as if after so much annoyance from boys who are just desperate to stick it in, they have discovered a man.

One who will not flake out, run away, or (cringe!) pressure her for an abortion, if the moment’s passion turns out to have permanent consequences.  Really hot.  Like, “please yes, let’s now take about a one-in-a-million risk of contraceptive failure, because I’m anyway secretly fantasizing about having your babies” level of hotness.

If you can’t cope with that, #gohomo.

Oh, and if you are not sufficiently mature even to raise these types of grown-up discussions, then you should not be having sex.



In re Communism

I have been calling Trump a Communist for about the past five years.  I tossed out that thing about the history of Antifa while I was working on a cartoon about Orange Dolt Kerensky (R) versus Senile Dementia Lenin (D).  (To be posted, after I finish the accompanying text.)

I identify things as they are.  If you are too asinine to understand, that is your problem.  I only debate my peers—although on occasion, Internet flotsam may provide an opportune rhetorical opening for something that I wanted to write anyway on grounds of, Imperia dura tolle...

Recently, I also almost used my standard metaphor of describing second-century Christian groups as Antifas.  It is basically what they were:  Proto-Communist agitators who, in their case, were renegades against the established order of Judaism.  And the Sermon on the Mount is a v0.1 SJW rant.  As I have previously remarked, Marx didn’t really invent much; he simply systematized a social pathology that has recurred at various times in history, and integrated it with the modern democratic Zeitgeist into an economically-minded worldview centred on the primacy of Capital.

And because I know political concepts from first principles, it was before I saw the below images floating around on the Internet that I wrote an analysis (not posted) of Cuties as Communist propaganda.  I wrote that based on what its defenders say about it, not what its detractors say (and I have not seen the film).



(Who is that angry-looking orange-haired man in the background?  I can’t quite see the details.  Well, I suppose it’s nothing.)

Either movie set designers—who, as professional storytellers, work semiotics as their jobs—have taken up the habit of painting arbitrary political symbols in the backgrounds of their scenes for no reason whatsoever—or I know Marxism when I see it.

It was at the time that I posted this, for anyone with a critical artistic eye:

Subject: [WO] Uglies
Something that V8s posted earlier incited an essay that went off into a tangent; it took on a life of its own, and...  I think that I will just leave this here for now.



USA

“We Can Do It!”
J. Howard Miller (1942–43)



USSR

“The Liberated Woman is Building Socialism”
Adolf Strakhov (1926)


A few hours after this:


My post history has plenty of observations about Communism going back to when I was at Newbie rank, but I need not reach that far.

So noted, just so that people realize that I have been quite consistent about this since long before I caught the ire of an apologist for Communism who apparently can’t stand to see things identified for what they are.



Robots, please hurry up!  This state of affairs is intolerable.
