"Rising CO2 will cause the oceans to acidify and kill the fish" is another mythical tale from the folklore of fiat scientists:

sciencemag.org/news/2021/05/d…
Fiat scientist takes fish from the sea and puts them in fish tank and reports they were scared. He blames CO2 and establishes an entire field of study. And he would have gotten away with it if it weren't for...
...these badasses who went to the sea instead of playing with fish tanks and found that fish don't care about tiny increases in CO2 levels, because they're smarter than many humans.
Ultimately for the fiat scientist what matters is that he got published & got funded. If there's anything the last year taught us, it's that hysteria sells in the land of fiat, because nobody understands opportunity cost.

The best advice I can give people interested in learning about bitcoin is

SHUT UP ABOUT BITCOIN

Wanting to appear smart is your biggest learning impediment. Until you've spent many months obsessively & silently studying bitcoin, you don't have anything important to say about it
No matter how smart you are, it'll take you many months of studying several unrelated & highly technical fields to form a good understanding of bitcoin.

Until you do, you are just wasting your time & the time of those unfortunate enough to humor you. Put in the work of STFU
This is why bitcoin is the ultimate fraud-buster. Anyone who bloviates on bitcoin without putting in the work is immediately exposed. This is a proof-of-work system, not the fiat world where you just need to make the right politically-correct noises to get a lifetime job.

This sociopath hates bitcoin because he is literally a fiat academic, who can only maintain the pretense of being an academic thanks to fiat printers. In a free market he'd go hungry as an academic or learn a useful skill more suited to his cognitive capacity, like shoe-shining.
The National Science Foundation is connected to the US government's infinite money printer. They face no opportunity cost for all the fiat money they hand out to fiat academics to write fiat bullshit.

And even they couldn't get themselves to fully finance this loser.
All academics who have received funding from the US government or its fiat universities need to recuse themselves from discussing bitcoin due to a clear & obvious conflict of interest.

Their entire careers depend on fiat. Don't be surprised to see them get even more deranged.

I ran the numbers on washing machine electricity usage and I am APPALLED.

850m washing machines worldwide consume around 140 GWh of electricity every year.

I'm only washing my clothes with my hand from now on & will start a campaign to ban washing machines!

#TweetLikeANocoiner
The washing machine community contains some of the world's most toxic and unpleasant individuals. Most the world's serial killers use washing machines.

These people are literally boiling oceans when hand-washing is an eco-friendly and sustainable alternative available to all.
Why should we as a society tolerate this selfishness of the washing machine community who want to consume electricity just to save time on hand-washing?

There are no social benefits to this waste when we are in a climate crisis & oceans are *literally* boiling.

Olive oil is a historically insignificant part of mediterranean diets, which rely heavily on animal fats. It had non-dietary uses mainly, only being eaten by the destitute who couldn't afford animal fats

facultativecarnivore.com/facultative-ca… ImageImageImage
The idea that Mediterraneans based their diet on olive oil is a scam promoted by Harvard & their industrial junk sponsors, to help sell high margin industrial plant oils, as detailed in the excellent @bigfatsurprise: ImageImage
Traditional Mediterranean diets, like all human diets, are based on animal fats.

It's hilarious that modern Meds believe what Harvard tells them their ancestors ate. If their ancestors saw them cooking in olive oil, they'd think they're destitute.

More than two years after this model was published, the price continues to track the model's predictions with astonishing precision.
The price of bitcoin can be anywhere between $0 and $100m. That it continues to remain within the one standard deviation band of the model's predictions for more than 2 years is about as likely to happen randomly as someone correctly guessing a private key.
The one standard deviation band is around $40,000 wide. The odds of the price being there randomly on any given day is ~40k/100m, or 0.04%.

The odds of it being in that band randomly for 800 days in a row is 0.0004 ^ 800 = 4.4 E-2719.

That's 0. (2719 zeros) 4.

Impossibly tiny.
