$SNAP earnings:
No guidance = "fuck you investors"
Spending like drunken sailors again, while not delivering on promise of profitability (in ANY way).
Revenues beat my estimates by 2%
DAUs beat by 0.5%
overall: disappointing, but give it another 17 years.

Turns out I had changed my paymail in between two logins, so powping didn't recognize me. So false alarm here.
I think powping & @twetch are complementary. I use them for different purposes. pping more conversational, Twetch more serious/permanent.
“a person could not have arrived at such a far-reaching change of view by continuing to follow the old beaten paths, but only by introducing some sort of new idea. Indeed, Einstein arrived at his theory thru a train of thought of great originality”—Lorentz
Uncertainty Principle=brilliant
Copenhagen Interpretation that led to these metaphysics claims about everything = wave function til observed is wrong
Einstein will be proved correct 3 more times before Physics truly advances
1999 “experiment”=>nonsense
Disagree w everything in article other than Planck quote. didn’t mind reading it until the nonsensical declarations of Einstein as plagiarizer. This is as ridiculous as the claims Craig Wright is plagiarizer. We aren’t far away from proving all this wrong
First try to find a way into USAA. Not only great customer service & mobile app, but when all the banks run to papa for handouts in the next finan'l crisis (soon), USAA has such a huge proportion of military they are safe place to keep money. IBKR 4 stocks
Posted 2 things, then couldn't post no more on powping.
Logged out, then couldn't log back in as a returning user.
At least it told me @john wasn't available (me).
sigh. startup-life.
Feeling like the prodigal son. @twetchdaddy
Looking forward to trying it, whatever it might be!

CSW didnt plagiarize-- cited all refs

Not easy. You can look up particular topics, include Craig & Wright, & hope to get lucky. THEN, you have to hit the down-caret on google search returns, and click on "cache" to see the tweets. It's a mess, but I don't know a way to view ALL of them.
Oil’s West Texas valuation of negative $40.34 was very real— temporary but as real as cancer. For a month the negative environmental cost of disposing a barrel of oil far outweighed its utility. Thus value not just “future utility”. Mona Lisa has 0 utility
Value has to do w what people will work to obtain that lasts. Value is the work it would take to create an identical. Hence some things are “priceless”. BitCoin’s value is the limited ability to lock data into capsules known as bits. BSV is like Manhattan
If we find the moon has a gold core right below the surface & we can cheaply mine & ship to earth— gold’s “value” will be more like sand or poop (also valuable to farmers like me). The immutable ledger is valuable bc it’s limited. Pruning BSV is ESSENTIAL.
by the way I don’t entirely disagree w U here, but talking about gold’s supply as it relates to its valuation. I agree w ur “because of it’s properties” on the demand side. Hence the emphasis on “good” above, a BAD joke => your valueless work comment.
Gold value has to do w the work involved in getting it. Altho this can manifest in several ways the "base" is mining expense/ounce.
BitCoin's value has to do with work involved in creating valuable information-- a GOOD joke for ex
Funny how "Do No Harm" is the medical world's oath and is just as ignored as Google's infamous "Do No Evil" mission statement.
Who knew Mother Goose was wiser than either of those two?
Don't confuse "bitcoins" here.
BSV "devs" will be fired after Chronicle update (threading implemented). The protocol is set; nothing for devs to do.
Only in btc & bch (& eth) are devs never-ending.
btc devs (Blockstream) are balls of yarn in Cat Alley
Devs not responsible for ANYTHING past establishing a layer-zero protocol "in stone". Then BSV devs fired.
NODES responsible for freezing stolen funds in a theft case, ordered by court, by NOT validating from stolen address.
What if thief sells btc FAST?
Would be HILARIOUS if btc nodes/devs REFUSED to freeze Craig's stolen funds, & then the THIEF FAT-FINGER-SOLD Craig's btc such that btc dropped to a very low price VERY quickly.
Wouldn't THAT be an ironic outcome of fighting CSW a bit too hard?
Core cannot return the coins, but freeze them.
Only the thief can return the coins.
Think of the private key as a treasure map. The gold is in the box, it's Craig's gold but his map was stolen. Say court summons thief, he claims he ALSO lost map.
Also a thick congrats to Shravan Shandilya— this is his 1st mention on @852 but mostDef not the last!
