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.

Am I evil ? Is Darth evil?

Me riding into the Stacker Saloon at lunch as a break from doing math

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"

Reading Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy, it's great, very dark

One of the best memes review on the Simply Bitcoin today's episode

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.

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...

wen AAA bitcoin cypherpunk fiction novel?

Got up in the morning and felt that I wanna do nothing. So I did it.

ᕦ(ò_óˇ) Day 5 of exercising everyday before the saloon opens

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?

Gm, a friend of mine is having birthday today and I'm thinking gifting her Bitcoin too, as the best thing one can gift to others is either Bitcoin or knowledge.

PS: did you read my new post 👀

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

What yall's favorite drink??

Call me sacreligious but i wish the saloon served more WINE!

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.

You tax my money? even Turpin wore a mask ..stand and deliver..

This haiku assumes you know who the notorious English highwayman Dick Turpin was and the idiom ‘Even Dick Turpin wore a mask…’ when told how expensive something is

Anyone else notice how bright Venus has been in the pre dawn sky the last few mornings?

Snail price check?

This is the way.
