Howdy there, partner! Welcome on into the Stacker Saloon.
Saddle on up to a stool and spill the beans about your day, fire away with them questions, or let loose and give us the lowdown on your wild and woolly life. We're all ears, so don't hold back!
We're open round the clock, so mosey on in whenever you please!
Saddling up for another day down the rabbit hole! Listening to Pysch on the dish on his pod today!
Do any other postgres people recognize this legend?
I've learned so much from him.
.... and that's it guys!
This is the 200th comment on today's Saloon!
I was waiting for it.
We have a new record for the Saloon!
And I break it.

The saloon is fucking lovely wild west saloon.
sorry. Sat tap spilled!!
@k00b petition to add βsats spilledβ counter to the post preview instead of nothing or the regular post βsatβ counter (since we cant zap the saloon post itself), just tracks sats spent in the saloon comments (14.3k rn), shows it off to whoever is reading the home page
I have been learning some new languages lately. Very fulfilling!

Did any of you guys have that a-ha moment when reading "satistics" on menu? I thought "wait a typo... no wait... it's... it's correct... howdy"
I've had 10-20 people reach out probably lol
Reading Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy, it's great, very dark
Any good? Not read any of his stories. Always fancied The Road thoughβ¦
one of my all time favorites. but yeah, super dark
A strong recommendation for my tastes then!

Does anyone else read Twitter/Nostr and imagine negative vague tweets may be about them/their work?
I find it a fun random seed for self-reflection. "If this were about me, what would it mean?"
e.g. Replit's CEO tweeted something to the effect of "Companies sink deeper into sunk costs by default" and I began considering what SN's sunk costs are.
I think itβs fair, everyone does it to some extent. I try to make sure only to do that if I am only willing to say that to their face and that seems to help me gauge on whether I should say it or not.
I do the same, but with anything I read online lol
That's normal, I guess... there's no way to expand your practical knowledge without comparing your activities to the others. The hardest part is just separate lessons from pure negativity. That's tricky because, while comparable (companies, in case), situations will differ on all levels.
OMG is just september and the saloon is getting crazy.
When I will be fully back from "building", hold your horses guys because I will come hard on posting.
This is nothing what are you seeing now...
The force is too STRONG, and Darth can't resist I sensed.

Got up in the morning and felt that I wanna do nothing. So I did it.
I am totally agree with you
Sometimes I do the same, just do nothing.
And is wonderful.
The art of doing nothing
Or listen this amazing presentation:
The tale of two brains - especially the moment when he explains why men want to do nothing in their own box. Is fucking true!
α¦(Γ²_Γ³Λ)Day 5 of exercising everyday before the saloon openshttps://imgprxy.stacker.news/tghN45w_u5-QvDsGT-bRzKOZb5bYteaVLvOu2FcvbBU/rs:fit:600:500:0/g:no/aHR0cHM6Ly9pLnBvc3RpbWcuY2MvM1IzTnZkN2cvc2lnbmFsLTIwMjMtMDktMjAtMTIzMjA0LmpwZw
Oh, oh, I got late with posting this. Got too distracted with notifications and the Pay It Forward Initiative and then some more notifications.
I went for a run today. It took me 31:37 to run roughly 5km.
In German, we actually call it "joggen" not "rennen". I looked up if there is a better translation than "run" (since you don't really run if you try to "run" a long distance or for a long period of time). There is also "to jog" in English. But it feels like this is not used much? Is this more like a trap where you can notice if people use "to jog" that English is not their mother tongue?
Anyway. When I run, I don't try to run for a specific period of time. I try to run a specific route (with a specific distance) with checkpoints in mind.
I do this because I think it makes it easier to "not cheat" by just running very slowly. Anyone can "run" 30min+ if you just walk. Running a specific distance is therefore imo a good benchmark. This way, you can also make a competition out of this by measuring your time.
This always brings me to this question: What is the fastest way to travel a specific distance, therefore optimizing for least time? And what is the most efficient way to travel a specific distance; optimizing for least energy expended?
For example, if we keep the distance fixed, we can expend energy to travel the same distance in less time.
But when we start to target long enough distances (for example, 10km), it becomes obvious that we can't expend maximum energy all the time since we will get too exhausted. And then we will probably be a lot slower since we still have to travel a long distance even after all our energy is already depleted.
So what is the optimal speed for least energy expenditure? And at which point do you start to run as fast as you can to achieve your fastest time?
That's my watch... simple and effective. They say that it's also the al-qaeda's favorite. Could be because it's cheap? Precise? Both? dunno
I used to have one too
Well done. Re running - itβs a fascinating topic. I am a lapsed ultramarathoner and can talk for days about this stuff.
I can recommend the book βBorn to Runβ by Chris McDougall.
No reason to be bullish unless something bullish happens? And 90% of the threads on SN are not about adoption they are meme threads. Its 2023 and bitcoin cannot survive on memes anymore. Adoption is needed. But its not going to happen? So take care

Opti from Simply Bitcoin podcast
IMO next influx of capital will come from ETFs (unlocking capital from institutions and retirement funds). Retail is too poor right now. So I agree short-term is crabby / bearish.
The funniest outcome would be if the halving does absolutely nothing for the price. I can sort of believe this because a) supply cut weakens with each cycle, b) priced in, c) mEth tried cutting net-issuance to near-zero and it's done nothing for them. I think it would be healthier for Bitcoin if we stopped getting these crazy cycles.
i think ppl are stupidly underestimating what the spot etf will do
have read all kinds of dumb "already priced in" comments
trillions are gonna pour in
BUT ITS ALL PAPER BTC F***
What yall's favorite drink??
Call me sacreligious but i wish the saloon served more WINE!
Sherbet, it is so delicious and healthy.
I like it too.
Also in the summer I used to make a refreshment from elderberries flower.
In mid-may and early June, I collect elderberry flowers and let them dry in sun for 2-3 days.
Then store them in paper bags.
Once in a while, almost every week, I do this recipe:
Drink this refreshment all summer and you will see that:

I drink also wine and other strong drinks (occasionally), but I always prefer Leffe beer.
You can find it soon in the Stackers General Store

Asking you nice now, keep the mother rolling, one more time
Yesterday I didn't want to enter in the Saloon (just a small other experiment).
But today I couldn't resist to not drink a beer here (or invite somebody for a drink).
Day 158 of snailposting everyday 'til BTC hits $100k.

180 so close we can smell it
I have a good feeling about day 220.
You tax my money?

This haiku assumes you know who the notorious English highwayman Dick Turpin was and the idiom βEven Dick Turpin wore a maskβ¦β when told how expensive something is
No need to explain. People will learn. I had to google the guy.
Am I spoon feeding? Nasty fiat habitβ¦
Anyone else notice how bright Venus has been in the pre dawn sky the last few mornings?
