Finally listened to https://stephanlivera.com/episode/268/ where @pete offers what I think is an excellent analysis and summary of the whole #Signal shitcoin situation from a technical perspective.

The only thing missing is mentioning #XMPP when @stephanlivera asks about federated messaging protocols. But we still have work to do, to make that a viable alternative for a mainstream audience IMO.

At 5:25 sounds like they invented spin coating: "Finally someone tried pouring the paint out of a cup. The disk coated itself."

It's a blessing that Trump exposed the media as fake news.

@skunksarebetter @alexbuzzbee I think "could care less" is even more dismissive than "couldn't care less" as it implies you've actually thought about it, and you still don't care.

Great writeup on why it these blood clots were 1) so alarming, 2) definitely caused by Astra Zeneca.

"So four people out of 132,000 who received the Astra-Zeneca vaccine developed the normally exceedingly rare combination of thrombocytopenia with cerebral venous sinus thrombosis. All had received the Astra-Zeneca vaccine seven to ten days earlier."

"It’s so uncommon that only a handful of cases have been reported in the entire medical literature. Up to now, that is."
