What Is This?

This is an experiment inspired by discussions and posts made by @Undisciplined, @elvismercury and others regarding evergreen content on SN. I’ll dig back into the past to try to locate some great posts that might be worth another read. I plan to make these posts every Tuesday.
Here are this week’s selections:
Calle gave us both a great biography and AMA in one post. For those not familiar with him as a bitcoin developer, this is for you. I learned a lot the first time I read it.
I tried a writing contest for my ~booksandarticles territory for a few weeks. It produced some real gems. GrayRuby’s post was in a class by itself. I know it’s not that old, and many have read it before, but I have read it a few times and still enjoy it. For those who have not read it, you’re in for a treat.
Comments and suggestions are welcome.
I really enjoy 'Golden Oldies' more than I do 'This day on SN'. The articles suggested here are one of the best ones! Thanks @siggy47.
I like the article by @grayruby so much. I instantly bookmarked it immediately.

Siggy’s curation of the golden oldies adds a nice touch.

Indeed! @grayruby's this post can be read multiple times without getting bored. This post is also one of the posts that I read completely. I was new here and just trying to figure out who to read and as it was a normal for me in starting, I subscribed him and all that Cricket in June and Olympics now can be credited to this post. Thanks Siggy for reminding! Thanks grayruby for reigniting my love for sports!

My pleasure. Your contributions to the sports territory and SN more broadly have been great.

Excellent as always, thank you for bringing back golden oldies!

@grayruby's post is legit writing. I can feel the ambiance of it, just from memory.

Thanks. I will try to do another long for post/ story sometime this year. I had one I was working on when Siggy said he wanted some bitcoin fiction writing but I never finished it and haven’t gone back to it. But I will do something before the end of the year.
