I still have Bombay Sapphire but I’ve run out of Tonic Water.

Shit just got real!

Mmm. Sapphire. Got a way to cool it down? Who needs or even wants tonic water?

I guess that's good for slaking your thirst in the hot summer noonday sun, but we ain't there ATM, are we?

No point to enter the stock market until AMZN is also down 40-50% from the top.
I am 80-90% sure that there will be no exceptions longer term.

Is there anything to this?

No, supply is set in algorithm, and demand couldn't care less about current difficulty level.

[jojo69]

I mean, unless difficulty drops so precipitously that idle mining power could conceivably mount a 51% attack,

vanishingly unlikely now, slightly less vanishingly after the halving.

If you start to get bad memory, and you realize that you are getting bad memory, wouldn't you have to change some of your procedures such as writing things down more?

It's tons of fun having piles of lists that you always forget to bring.
Actually you can re-use them again, just edit and then forget to use them over and over again.
Or on the off chance you do remember to bring one its always fun to be on the way back home only to remember you forgot to check the list thats in your pocket. Lol

Plus I can work on some home projects undisturbed if I get bored and run out of work.
Bitcoin rounds anyone?  lol

yes please

Workin on it bro.....

Of all the things I lost in life I miss my mind the most.

I'm on track, any word of advise, before I go full wacko?

Learn to accept the fact you cannot always trust yourself. That is a brutal thing to deal with if you have had rote memory your entire life and then its not dependable. Alot of people turn mean at this point and refuse to admit when they are wrong and I have certainly been guilty of that myself, especially when you forget that you forget.

If you have bad memory, there is always something new.

But... Isn't current scenario and, even more, post-covid one like the perfect environment for Amazon to have even more success?

Basically all their divisions are in a surge:

- Distribution and online selling of all sort of goods
- Cloud computing (AWS)
- Video streaming (Amazon Prime Video)
- Food distribution (Whole Foods)

It is like the perfect company for times like this.

While everyone is closing/firing they are hiring instead:

... snake bites. (or SARS-infused ferret bites?)

A report from Madrid where they commandeered an ice-rink (currently not used). Do they simply stack the bodies, literally "on ice",until they can catch up with funerals, cremations, autopsies, etc? Thought that was highly creative, if a little morbid.
https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/03/spain-makeshift-ice-rink-morgue-takes-delivery-corpses-200324115155671.html

Authorities said on Monday facilities could not cope and agreed to transform the Palacio de Hielo mall, home to an Olympic-sized ice rink, into a morgue.

Footage from Reuters TV showed vehicles at the building cordoned off by police officers in masks.

I think that qualifies for the funeral home share app prize winner.

Largely the way the virus gets into the high-mortality figure range is when systemic failures are exploited. Poor testing, slow reactions from officials on border closures, hospital resource expansion, equipment procurement, basically a lack of foresight and moribund bureaucracy is what is killing people now. The virus is simply the mismanaged agent of death. The financial systems are fucked right now but they weren't in great shape under the hood to begin with ... bitcoin is the antidote for those rats.

I'm encouraged by the innovative approaches that blows away the old ways to save lives. The drive-thru testing from S.Korea that is getting adopted globally, antibody testing by private labs, Apps for disease tracing and an informed public "crowd-sourcing" for where the disease has been spotted (instead of old and slow press conferences with parade-leader politicians and health bureaucrats). Ice-rink morgues are another innovative solution to surge disruption bought on by the virus, hopefully if it is better managed at the prevention/mitigation end we wont need too many of them.

It may sound weird at first, but it makes sense. In lack of a better solution, NYC has the rink at Rockefeller Center and probably many others across all the state.

Also, instead of building an hospital from scratch like Wuhan did in 10 days. Madrid just repurposed IFEMA Convention Center into a 5000+ bed Hospital in just 2 days:

https://elpais.com/elpais/2020/03/22/album/1584868312_266377.html

That is just one of MANY pavillions of the complex. Also the repurposed rink morgue is very close to it.


On other news, Mexico's President is completely nuts. In a hilarious video staged on some kind of restaurant he encouraged their citizens to go out and socialice even more than ever... because it is good for the economy.

“Don’t stop going out—we’re still only in phase one,” López Obrador said. “If you have the means to do it, continue taking your family out to restaurants and diners. That’s what will strengthen the economy.”

(In original Spanish it sounds much more encouraging... and hilarious)

Maybe he is a Slayer relative?

Yes. It is a repeat of what people said at the previous halvening, and what they will say at the next.
