They weren't exactly subtle about it: the CEOs of America's largest companies got on their quarterly investor calls and chortled about the willingness of "consumers" to blame inflation for the price-hikes they were cramming down their throats:

1: storing data on a blockchain has lots of funky economic implications. who pays for it? how? when? for how long?

2: like other databases, blockchains are useful because you can write stuff into them and read later. ✍️📖
the challenge is what happens in between? someone has to store the data from the moment it's written to the moment it's read. this has a financial cost. 🤔

3: why is figuring out the tokenomics of storage a new problem? 💵💴💶💷
well, because back in the "old days of blockchain", it was so expensive to write anything on-chain that nobody cared too much about the economics of storage.

**WARNING TRIGGERS** (I HAVE PERMISSION TO SHARE STORY)
Today was stressful & hard. It was emotional. I broke down in tears along side my volunteers & a young mother of two, who felt like her world was ending. She wanted to save her children from what she's had to endure.
Today was stressful & hard. It was emotional. I broke down in tears along side my volunteers & a young mother of two, who felt like her world was ending. She wanted to save her children from what she's had to endure.
She didn't want to end up a statistic. She chose to leave a volatile living situation & move to a safe place where she began the process of living for herself & living for her children.
She chose life not abuse. She chose her kids over her partner. She chose smiles over tears.
She chose life not abuse. She chose her kids over her partner. She chose smiles over tears.
She told all of us that she had been planning for over a year to leave & was on the verge of leaving when #Covid19AB happened.
She was scared/afraid/had panic attacks not knowing how to help herself let alone her children. Then she saw us on @GlobalCalgary with @global_leslie.

If #Christians would stop getting in #verbal #disagreements about whether or not to focus #international or here at #home #imagine how much #more would get done as far as #ministry , #activism & #humanitarian #relief is concerned? Think about that. I do both international & here
We need #more #unity in #church . If you got time to #tweet about being #dissatisfied with something, you got time to #pray about it. Same goes for any part of the #government .
Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper.”

It's a freakin #relief, to cry a tiny bit in a #movie theatre at a moving point in the film, without having to expend all the extra #energy in "did someone see me?"
#exhausting!
and that's just one tiny perk :)
