"That's it, isn't it? Rules and rule changes. If you want to deeply and utterly depress someone, change the rules, and change them often. Force them to do something meaningless. Change the rules arbitrarily. That's what really demoralizes people: being imprisoned in a system of arbitrary rule changes. No hope for stability and no way out."

"The behaviour of Hongwu, the first of the Ming emperors, is an object lesson in how to stifle the economy: forbid all trade and travel without government permission; force merchants to register an inventory of their goods once a month; order peasants to grow for their own consumption and not for the market; and allow inflation to devalue the paper currency 10,000-fold."

"The word *courage* is very interesting. It comes from a Latin root *cor*, which means 'heart.' So to be courageous means to live with the heart. And weaklings, only weaklings, live with the head; afraid, they create a security of logic around themselves. Fearful, they close every window and door-with theology, concepts, words, theories-and inside those closed doors and windows, they hide."

same with money.
some people come of age during a deep depression or excessive inflation, others during a raging bull market or generational prosperity and cheap gas, and each grows older thinking they've learned how to save and invest.
Morgan Housel probably said it best: "Your personal experiences with money make up maybe 0.00000001% of what's happened in the world, but maybe 80% of how you think the world works."

"The word *priority* came into the English language in the 1400s. It was singular. It meant the very first or prior thing. It stayed singular for the next five hundred years. Only in the 1900s did we pluralize the term and start talking about priorities. Illogically, we reasoned that by changing the word we could bend reality. Somehow we would now be able to have multiple 'first' things."

"To maintain growth in complexity, hierarchies levy heavier taxes on their populations. At some point even this yields declining marginal returns. This happens when rates are so high that avoidance increases, and taxation-induced inflation erodes the value of the money collected (Parkinson 1960: 79; Eisenstadt 1963: 152)"

new quantum fud just dropped from google ✨ well, it's not deliberate fud but it has stoked unwarranted fear
still purely theoretical, they're just projecting progress to revise their predicted timeline as per usual. great marketing strategy to stay relevant in the news cycle.
plus most bitcoin is held in addresses where the public key isn't exposed (at least not until it's spent), so this theoretical achievement would only affect those reusing addresses.
anyway, it's not nothing but it's certainly not something

"For me, there are two kinds of debts a person can incur. One kind is the material one, which can be seen and touched. It may be as small as a cup of sugar, or as large an amount of money as you can borrow. This has to be paid as soon as possible, so that your own good self-image and personal dignity will not be crushed by it.
The other kind of debt is a spiritual one. It is the one that spurs man to be better than he is, and somehow drives him to go beyond the call of need and duty. One should wear this kind of debt as a suit of shining armor. It can never be fully repaid, but you wish that it could be, with such compounded interest that it would be beyond the wealth of Midas.
I used to envy people who say, 'I don't owe anyone anything!' Now I only feel great pity for those people because they've cut themselves off from the world and human society. How lonely they must be!"
