US dollar hit all time low compared to BTC. US dollar has been hitting all time lows compared to most (all?) asset classes. It even hits lows with regards to basic consumer goods these days.

We need more nuclear, not less. Nuclear is the safest power source (measured in deaths/gwh), is reliable, high capacity and its waste is managed much easier than waste from solar panels and batteries. Being anti-nuclear at time of clim

there is an obvious compromise here - require voter ID but only in counties where enough registered voters (say over 95%) have one. Regardless of voting, people not having an ID is a serious problem local governments must solve.

our current “climate tzar”, John Kerry, made a career killing safe and promisingly nuclear designs.

that is wrong. We are replacing it with coal in Utah. LA county buys up to 20% of its electricity from Utah, triggering a coal and gas expansion there.

Bay area public schools are horrible. I live 15 mins away from Apple HQ and all you need to know about our assigned elementary school is that it has metal detectors on the entrance because of the gang activity.

this is false dichotomy invoked every time in discussions like these. Totalitarianism is a property of political system, not economic one. South Korea was not democracy by any stretch of imagination for quite some time. China is totalitari

I agree that Biden admin is all about censorship. But, after watching her interview, it doesn’t look to me that this whistleblower is.

Agree, unfortunate such coordination is not going to happen. Carbon border adjustments is a great idea which could make carbon taxes work.
