Yes! Houses are absolutely consumables. It’s not that they appreciate. It’s that they depreciate the slowest relative to fiat (compared to other consumables).
Rough hierarchy of retail consumables’ ability to store value from most to least:
* Real estate
* Automobiles
* Large appliances
* Furniture
* Small appliances
* Home goods
* Clothing
* Non-perishable food
* Perishable food
The extra boost that the higher end items gets has to do with upkeep. The people living in the house pay to maintain the property. The people driving the cars pay to keep them running, etc.

The problem, IMO, isn’t that services have costs—that’s just life. The problem is that the services and costs are compulsory.
So when I say 0% tax, I mean no fees you didn’t agree to. A good start would be eliminating the exit tax for born citizens. The idea that you have to pay to leave, and if you don’t, you pay income tax forever, makes the national boundary one gigantic plantation.
In a pure anarcho-capitalist setup, one could imagine some forms of fees that look similar to current taxes. For example, a road service provider might charge gas stations extra for access to the road. The gas station passes that on to their customers in the form of a gas-tax-like fee. Those fees, at arms length, pay for road maintenance, much like gas taxes do now.
Will all this happen in our lifetimes? Maybe. Although the current direction is towards more socialism (strong national borders, etc.) Maybe after the next pendulum swing.

Not sure how to answer. I’m a software engineer with 20+ years of experience, but I’ve never programmed in Rust, and I have only a passing familiarity with low-level Bitcoin details. So for me anyway, it’s been very hard.

Working through the chaincode labs #boss program. Still behind, but worth the grind.
I could not do this without AI help. GitHub Copilot has been super helpful. It can make changes on request, and autocompletes many things correctly.
Plus you can open a chat with it. Select some lines and ask a question. It’s like pair-programming with an articulate subject matter expert.
Prior to this, I had had no need for AI help programming, because I was working with libraries and languages with which I was already intimately familiar (TypeScript/sass). First time where access to these tools is make-or-break. #Bitcoin

Finally finished my Rust implementation of secp256k1 (elliptic curve) math today. Got burned by bugs in my Python implementation.
Some of my Python test cases were just the outputs of previous failed runs. That is, I ASSUMED my Python was correct and encoded that assumption in the unit tests. So when I ported the tests to Rust, the failed, even thought the Rust implementation was correct!
This #BOSS program has been quite the challenge. And I’m way behind. Should have been done with this part weeks ago. Combination of difficulty and life interventions.

Yeah, still pondering. I mean, it’s a metaphor, which is doomed. Every metaphor is “not the same thing” by definition. If it was the same thing, it wouldn’t be a metaphor.
However, sometimes pondering metaphors leads to insight. That’s what I’m exploring here.
I think there’s something to be said for complexity, intelligence and will. Like, we might say that matter “wants” to get together (gravity). Genes “want” to propagate. Chemicals “want” to react, etc.
And so we intelligent beings of higher complexity want things of a higher order. When we interact with simpler systems, simpler (brute) means apply. If you want to move dirt, you scoop it. But if you want to move public sentiment, sophisticated persuasive tools are more effective than brute force.
To escape a gravity well, you have to expel propellant. Direct application of force in the face of brute physics. To unlock a cryptographic system, you *can* use brute force, but you can also apply knowledge—the private keys.
I don’t know where I’m going with this. Just thinking aloud.
I think it’s more than just “knowledge is power”. Like, knowledge is a superior substitute for force. “Pen is mightier than the sword” kind of thing.

Einstein’s insight for general relativity was that acceleration and gravity must be the same thing, since a simple instrument can’t distinguish them. From this, he arrived at the curvature of space-time.
Cryptography offers a similar dichotomy. Whether an algorithm is brute-forced, or the user knows the private key, the simple instrument (proof) can’t tell the difference.
In a sense, force and knowledge must be the same thing. But what is our space-time curvature? #asknostr #philosophy
