I feel like I have been spending hundreds of sats each day, but sometimes I don’t even make it to the Leaderboard. Life goes on, but since you opened the floodgates…

I'll bite... this downtrend is a bit of a bummer. I wish I had even a little bit of funds to dump into the corn, but alas... I'm on that paycheck-to-paycheck ride right now.
might have to break down and get a 2nd job, even

I don't think Santa has wifi up there. I think you'd miss me too much. 😉

Alright, I can move up there, but only if you agree to come visit once in a while.

I'm allergic to getting mauled by polar bears, you'll have to come in person.

Slow and steady growth would absolutely be the ideal, and I think (hope) we get to that point.
It certainly won't stop me from capitalizing on the current exchange rate though.

Losing an hour sucks, why do we do this to ourselves. Who are the knuckleheads who came up with DST?

if you have the patience for 25 min (or whatever the full read is), Nate Silver convinced me that we should keep it. https://www.natesilver.net/p/save-daylight-savings-time

Permanent DST sounds like something I can get on board with.
I'm wondering who are the economic interests that oppose any changes to DST (coz it keeps getting proposed in California and then voted down)

status quo bias?
Voter dispersion? (i.e., few passionate people wanna get rid of it and so keep introducing bills, but voters generally aren't that bothered by it, so don't support it?)

I remember reading some arguments that it would be bad for the economy because of adjustment costs and frictions with other states. Not so sure I buy that argument but I'm wondering who is pushing them.

Complaint will help recover your time?
Or maybe it may make the next hour difficult thanks to the complaint and the change of humor?
It also happens to me.
But many times I try to be aware.
complain and damage the rest of my time in harmony or meditate on the matter and move on with the rest of my day taking advantage of the other hours.

Sometimes it's ok to vent frustrations especially if it allows you to move past it.

I understand you ... and I agree.
Only from my perspective the complaint will be a relief. (complaining only leads us to delay) we have to learn to accept that we don't have control and take life as it comes, and simply keep padding 🛶
