Wondering where the next three largest bitcoin circular economies will be? My guess is Argentina, Uruguay and Peru.
I don't think so. Argentina for example is plagued with shitcoin tether use. For arentinians is very hard to get away from "dollar-mindset" and after so many years of shitcoinization will be hard for them.
Uruguay and Peru ? How many merchants they have that already accept BTC? A Bitcoin circular economy start with merchants not with speculation. Start with people paid in BTC.
And all this start with good education and knowledge about how to use Bitcoin. Just go on any of these places and ask on the street random people if they are willing to be paid in BTC for doing x or y work. Or go to any shop and ask "can I pay in BTC?" The majority will say they prefer USDT.

I thought for sure Biden was going to drop that medal. I was relieved he didn't, and I don't even like the guy.
Many people don't like this guy.
Been stirring the pot hoping I would learn some stuff but I think I've had enough.
Time for me to get back to focusing on commonality and positive forward direction.
Use the sandwich approach:
Top: This is an interesting idea...
Middle: However, I wonder if...
Bottom: I also thought this was great...
Yeah, that's good. I just don't wanna argue when I see little value from it. I mean I could do it all day but it brings me down sometimes and I'd rather focus on positive things. Sick of all the politics and war talk.
I know what you mean. There are few people who argue well (as in seeking truth rather than victory).
Its absurd to argue towards victory since it is often subjective. You can have an argument with someone and both believe you won.
In a good faith argument, I'm usually trying to resolve the disagreement. That means identifying the underlying source of the disagreement.
Sometimes that's an objective empirical fact or point of logic and sometimes it's a subjective preference or value. When it's the former, one of us changes their mind. When it's the later, we understand each other a little better.
What a Clown!

Sharing some of my skincare hacks - how to ditch chemicals✨
did you find out any other fun hacks 👀
I was looking for a "solution" for my curly hair. I usually wash it and go straight for castor oil (I style my hair braided). Might try your tips soon. ;)
give it a go and let me know how it goes! also, use lurk warm water instead of hot water to rinse, otherwise...eggs is being cooked 🍳
castor oil is good, it grows eyelashes too 👀
No omelet for me then. 🤣
I tried for that use case too, but my eyelashes stayed pretty boring, size wise. :(
it was working for me, but then my eyelashes grew even more visible when I moved to a small town with drinkable water ( yay, from the tap! ) and ppl around me with really long eyelashes, even males. 😂
I wouldn't try that here. 😅
Ceramic water filter used to be pretty common in Brazil when I was younger (I don't see many nowadays). If you ever come across one of those definitely try it out (it gives water a very "earthish" taste).

How to know when to stfu and when to speak up?
how to know? Is quite simple: don't speak up when you do not have any knowledge about that "something".
Nowadays many people have "opinions" on everything, without any grain of knowledge. Opinions are NOT truth or facts. Are just "feelings".

Day 205's comment
Hello, I sorry my friend in SN, because I lost our and I don't give to you a watch my progress in learning English, but I using in this time Spekly. Btw. I used a speakly 30 days, my arytmetic score is a 30 points in a day. 30 points = +/- 45 minutes spend time in a lerning language. The suma is a 22.5 hours on this app. Sometimes I used a other metods for example I watch on the YouTube a Mark Tilbury chanel because I like watching films a self-motivation and building a financial cussions. I chose a Mark Tilbury films because his video is a more thematics similary to the films Pankracy on a Polish YouTube (my National language) and I understand Mark from video but not for a subtitels and audio. For this films I get a minimal used grammar in practice, vocabulary and understand language from hear. The third metod is a writing messeges by me in a English servers in Discord. Sorry, if I generate a scared in a lost motivation to the learning English because I understand than you have a hope that I learn English. Ok, I go to the shop bought a gift for my Brother because he have a bithday today. Haha, he have a birthday 6 days before of my birthday. Okey, see you than.

Day 12 of collecting taxes from stackers.
Collected so far: amount of sats redacted.
not sure I should comment on this, but why are parents putting their kids with the internet so much? #601481 online learning is fun and cool, but not sure is it a good idea for the eyes since this young age?
what I would love to do is probably spend more time with the kids in nature and show him / her how things work, e.g., how silk is being made and where cotton comes from, etc, and learning languages and problem-solving but with real-life samples, I feel digital skills can come later on, but ofc I could be wrong. 👀 this is paper parenting talk.
Fair point. We definitely try to balance the online learning with off line learning as well. Because the kids are homeschooled they get to try many different programs platforms but also have a lot of free time to read books and do other non screen related activities.
My daughter especially, who is only 5, only does 2 hours of online lessons a day. My son, who is 13, is definitely online a lot more.
pretty cool, @grayruby keep sharing more fun!
I agree that in the early years of their lives, children should be more connected with nature, with the environment they live in, and be active in games and physical human interactions, rather than being stuck in front of a screen, in my opinion.
However, nowadays this is becoming more and more difficult. Parents, who should be more involved with their children, are busy working long hours and have very little time to spend with their children.
which made me realize that one of the perks of working online and for yourself, you got so much more time to spend on what really matters. 👀
the funny thing is that I'm working online and the last thing I want is any of my future kids to get stuck with the Internet, it should be a tool, use it instead of being used.
You are absolutely right!
With the internet being so accessible these days, it's challenging and hard to prevent kids from using internet and limit what they watch.
lead by example! maybe use less phone when the kid around?
did you see the entire silk making process? would be interesting to see a first hand report. afaik the worms don't "enjoy" it
I saw the latter part about how they get the silk from the cocoons and how to spin them, and partial of the growing part now, and I'm thinking of making a video documenting silk-making with the traditional method!
the chickens and cows also doesn't enjoy it. 😂

Public vs PublicPublic vs Public
It is a mistake to assume what the word “public” means; there are in fact two definitions.
Because the people behind government require your consent to act upon you, and fully realise they cannot do anything to you on common land, as this would be unlawful, they need to pull you back into the private to impose their regulations.
In short, you leave the safety of your own private dominion; you enter into the common law definition of the public, and then are tricked into entering into a pseudo-public, which is another private jurisdiction, under the control of someone else.
Entering into the “common land public”, is going public, entering into “state public”, is becoming public.
You have entered into the jurisdiction of the state.
next #603230
Entering the Public WorldEntering the Public World
part of:#586916In addition to this (very good pill) I will add a distinction between types of "common law":
I know that many times we do not pay attention to how we write words, but in case you want to specify clearly which common law, is good to know these details.
https://m.stacker.news/38853
That's informative.
Everyone appreciates your honesty, until you're honest with them, then you're an asshole.

Eventually... in the end many stackers will go "full Darth"... Why? Because Darth is always right when he speaks out. Only that only few are listening carefully his words. https://postimg.cc/6TNXX6Q4
brilliant! everyone should have the ability to go full-darth'ed but reserve this ability, for we have to cultivate and cherish our darthedness.
