The millennials who dismiss AI today will end up like the boomers who dismissed the internet in the 90s.

You think #Bitcoin is complicated?
Wait until you find out the Federal Reserve is neither federal, nor has any reserves.

@RBReich
Remember: If unions didn’t matter, powerful corporations wouldn’t spend millions of dollars every year to stop workers from organizing. Keep up the fight.

BITCOIN DOESN’T CARE ABOUT OR NEED MAGA OR ANYONE ELSE IN THE WORLD

BITCOIN

@gladstein Jun 4
Please note that Bitcoin is co-opting MAGA and many other political movements, not the other way around. Bitcoin doesn’t need Trump or any politician.
Trump’s fixations only strengthen
a) our ability to use Bitcoin as freedom money with anyone else on the planet and
b) Bitcoin’s global network effect

2/16/25 To create something real, it takes energy.
The Bitcoin network demonstrates this every 10 minutes.
“#Bitcoin over the last five years has returned 55% CAGR.
If you get a 10th of a Bitcoin right now, just sit on a 10th of a Bitcoin…
You go 20 years… That’s $64 fucking million dollars.”

Coinbase, Circle, BitGo, and Paxos all looking to apply for bank licenses or charters. Deutsche Bank and Standard Chartered Bank seek to expand crypto operations in the United States.

Trump Meme Coin

President Trump is using various crypto schemes to shamelessly exploit the presidency for personal profit.
So why did 16 Senate Democrats provide crucial votes to advance legislation to make these schemes MORE PROFITABLE FOR TRUMP?
Follow the money.

It’s laughable how these so-called “tech” projects have been overshadowed by a memecoin like $TRUMP. The real value lies in Bitcoin. Time to wake up and smell the coffee, it’s all about BTC!

FYI: Trump doesn’t write or type his own posts. He has a special social media assistant that types them out for him, which is why he sometimes sounds like a valley girl. Someone messed up at the White House and posted something we weren’t meant to see. Possibly Russia agreeing to betray Iran.

Your reminder that Trump has 5 kids with 3 women he cheated on & Elon Musk has 14 kids with 4 women he cheated on & Pete Hegseth has 7 kids with 3 women he cheated on & Linda McMahon is being sued for enabling child sexual abuse. Family values my ass.

Psychopaths eventually rise to the top of every power structure—NGOs, corporations, and states. In a game without rules, those without morality will always have the upper hand.

Elon helped him hack the election to help him avoid going to prison. Trump ran to keep himself free. In exchange for what Elon did for him, he is under his thumb.
2 criminals
Trump and Musk made a deal to keep each other out of jail. We now have two corrupt illegitimate Russian-owned oligarchs destroying us from the inside. When is our intelligence community and military going to remove these traitorous fucking criminals?

TAXES

The Republican tax bill includes a $164 BILLION tax break for corporations who invest offshore.
I’m sure that’s not related.

California Assembly passes bill to regulate Digital Assets under ‘Unclaimed Property’ law.
The bill now moves to the Senate.
Law explained: Assets left on an exchange for 3 years will transferred to the state, and can then be claimed by the owner.
The big innovation with this bill is that any unclaimed #Bitcoin will stay as Bitcoin and not be liquidated. So you don’t have to worry about losing your gains due to early liquidation. The redemption is in kind Bitcoin held on exchanges for +3 year will be transferred to the state in California under a law passed by the Assembly Not your keys…

Billionaires in America now hold a record $7 TRILLION in wealth.
https://americansfortaxfairness.org/total-billionaire-wealth-tops-7-trillion-gop-aims-cut-healthcare-food-aid-give-rich-tax-cuts/
That’s a $4.1 TRILLION increase since the last Trump tax scam.
Republicans are now pushing a budget to give billionaires more tax breaks, paid for by cuts to healthcare and food assistance.
Insanity.

You see the problem here, right?
Instead of making the richest men in the world pay their fair share so we can provide a quality life to every American, they want to gut programs and use the money for MORE tax breaks for these guys.
It’s completely absurd and wrong.

For years we’ve heard from the right about “welfare queens” and other so-called “freeloaders” pulling one over on the government.
But actually, it’s the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes.
Where is the outrage over that?

Tax evasion by millionaires and billionaires tops
$150 billion a year, says IRS chief
PUBLISHED THU, FEB 22 2024-9:12 AM EST

BREAKING: House Republicans propose the following:
$4,500,000,000,000 in tax cuts to the richest people in America
$1,500,000,000,000 in spending cuts to things that make life better for everyone else — $3,000,000,000,000 added to the debt

Federal officials are preparing to collect $500 billion less in taxes this year because of the Trump-Musk IRS cuts and the wealthy tax cheats who are taking advantage of the situation.

The U.S. government says 247,000 people applied for unemployment benefits last week, the most in eight months.

Have you ever heard of the “cowboy cocktail”?
The term refers to Wyoming’s booming business of unregulated trusts that can interlock with anonymous LLCs registered in the state to create a secretive structure, layers that can help shield a person’s assets.

As an IRS agent, Tigran Gambaryan was perhaps the most effective crypto investigator ever. Then last year he was charged in Nigeria with money laundering and thrown in prison.
Throughout, he was texting me from a secret phone. This is his full story.

or Not to Teach. HARVARD has some balls.

Harvard, the world’s richest university, is scrambling for cash. In just two months, it’s borrowed a staggering $1.2 billion.
The cracks are showing, and the entire model of elite university finance is now under stress.
How did Harvard, with a $50B endowment, end up here?

Harvard has set up a website on its contributions to society.
155 patents issued in 2024 alone. New cancer treatments in the pipeline. Treatments for dementia.
Seeing our universities as woke factories completely misses the point.

WHAT ABOUT THAT $TRUMP MEMECOIN RUG PULL?

@coryklippsten
Selected coins with a lower marketcap than $TRUMP coin:
Cardano
Tron
Chainlink
Avalanche
Stellar
Hashgraph
Would have been way more effective to spend their ill-gotten gains cozying up to memecoin launches than wasting all these years promoting fake “tech”.

MG Hathaway @mghathaway
$TRUMP is Digital Glyphosate
It destroys:
Cardano
Tron
Chainlink
Avalanche
Stellar
Hashgraph
Crabgrass
and many other digital pests.

At the end of the day, nobody is forcing anybody to buy Trump, World Liberty Financial.

What’s the difference between a gov controlling an algorithm, silently eliminating reach for things it doesn’t like?
Vs the same gov using its power, to demand that the platform remove the things it doesn’t like?
In China they say what apps can’t do.
With TikTok in the US, they influence, silence and control users algorithmically.
They never see it coming.

K12 EDUCATION FOR PRIVATE SCHOOLS

ProPublica just launched a database to explore detailed demographic information about thousands of private schools across the country. Now you can look up detailed demographic information about thousands of private schools across the country and compare them to nearby public schools.
Here’s how to use it.

Survey Shows Broad Support For Public Schools

Voter support for public schools over private school vouchers runs deep and across party lines according to a new survey from All4Ed.

A recent national poll commissioned by All4Ed, in collaboration with Lake Research Partners and the Tarrance Group, underscores broad bipartisan support for career and technical training, as well as strong bipartisan backing for public schools.

What  is the  SEL Curriculum?

Studies show that spending $1 on SEL programs is equal to spending $11 on intervention.
Social-emotional learning (SEL) curricula are designed to help students develop essential life skills, including self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making. These curricula are crucial for fostering a positive school climate and supporting students’ academic and personal success.
2017 – When SEL curriculum is implemented holistically, with a coordinated, community-wide approach, SEL can build stronger communities and support equitable learning.
Building social-emotional skills that foster independence
Is this generation really less independent than previous ones?
“I think [independence] is something we have to intentionally teach now, when in the past, it was something kids developed through play,” he said.
Lawrence, the principal in Wisconsin, believes the pandemic exacerbated the problem, but that the decline in adolescent independence is primarily caused by kids spending more time on screens and less time engaging in unstructured play. When kids ride around on their bikes, explore outdoor areas, or go to the mall with friends, those activities are rich with learning opportunities, Lawrence said. Problems arise—a flat tire, a dispute with a friend—and kids are forced to work through them on their own.
“I think there is connection ultimately to cellphones and social media, because you see instances of this prior to 2020,” he said. “I see kids having less of an ability to socialize, less ability to problem-solve, less independence, and more reliance on somebody else to come and do things for them.” Lawrence said he has also seen a rise in parents intervening when their child is having difficulties socially with other children.

@NielsHoven
3 things I’ve learned teaching 3yos to read:
1) It can be done in ~100 hours
The real challenge isn’t time, it’s motivation and keeping the kid interested.
2) Daily practice is key
Frequent short practices means your child remembers more, which makes practice less frustrating, which makes learning more fun.
3) It’s not rocket science
A $17 book from Amazon is all you need.

THIS IS JUST GREAT!!!

Study suggests Epstein-Barr virus may cause multiple sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease affecting the central nervous system (CNS), characterized by inflammation, demyelination, and axonal damage. While the exact cause of MS remains unknown, research suggests a potential link between Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and the disease.

Many millennials and Gen Xers are facing a stark reality: their parents and grandparents don’t have the means to pay for long-term care — and they’ll need to help foot the bill, especially since government aid often doesn’t cover large parts of this care,” per BI.
