Last Notes npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Being obsessed about health isnt' healthy. Sleep well, move a lot, fresh air and as little processed food and exposure to as much natural materials as possible. Don't work in a chemical based industry...agriculture construction, most manufacturing... And you'll probably live a while, healthy. Of course theres always the car Crash, plane Crash, trip and fall lueking on all our shoukder npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter With ever increasing officialdom overreach "to keep us safe" It was interesting taking to someone Who grew Up in former east Germany. Ask me a dumb question like "Where have you just been?" and I give them a dumbass response. Democracies don't ask questions like that, dictatorshios do." He should know. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Talked to a teenager about the days of cameras with rolls of film. Said theyd seen one in a movie. To balance the scales they asked me what riz means. Crickets. #generation-gap npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Tried to Orange pill a bar on basis of avoid Visa Payment. They have a 1000€ account where they pay minimal commission- it runs through their bank. Harder sell to convince tem their funda are safer on lightning or BTC Network . npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Hopefully the decisions on dealing with this are based on wisdom and not purely tech-head nous. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Double check they are actually a bitcoiner themselves and not playing straight into Fiat games relying on the system they are trying to leave npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Decentralised communication built on encrypted keypairs has to work.Ditto Bitcoin has to work. Under the current gatekeeper paradigm, you don t own your emails. You surrender your money to the bank's control, and you are beholden to their policies. It is a lunatic running the asylum system making idiots and slaves of everyone involved except the few controlling your emails, the fruits of your money, your energy. If it's truly MY bank account then give me the archive and I'll tout It around other banks to see what deal they Will give me. If they risk my money, they pay ME more to have my account etc. As It stands it's the bank's account and they give you sole access to It. And make you feels grateful for solving a fuck Up their system caused. Bitcoin and lightning and nostr exist, the legacy system is exposed for it's backwards approach to security and privacy. Photos and SS numbers and telephone numbers, all stealable are woven together into a Swiss cheese of security bollocks, even though the tech leads at all these Institutions know damn well that PGP is now usable for everyone and a private and public key blows all their arcane and shite intrusive approaches out the wáter.. end of rant after 2 hours on a tech support call with intelligent people with little wisdom reduced to endibg TVE call with a plea for me to say they were helpful. If their energy were better used, the world would be a better place npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter https://youtu.be/np_ylvc8Zj8 hey @npub1guh…6hjy this is the original exposę of how so many dodgy financial roads lead to the City of London. Devious does t even come close to describing these people. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter People need to understand the problem Bitcoin solves. Til then It is an abstract idea. Most people don't do abstract. Dabbling in bitcoin is not an option when you see just how bad Fiat is. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I pay 10€ / month for data, so 19 for a mission control is alright 👍 npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Puede continuar. That's what the Guardia Civil say when they can't find a reason to mess with you. Cheers npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Not crazy expensive. You may continúe.😄 npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Roughly whats the cost of that tariff?. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter You can Enjoy all those vices on the internet too. ☺️ npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Isnt' wifi a bit old fashioned these days? Unlimited data and hotspots seems reliable and €15/month cheap. I only have simple needs compared to your mission control 😄. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I used to rig up a paint pad on a stick which works a bit better than a roller. But still a Pain. Wheres a plumber when you need one! npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Crazy type 2 diabetes stats mentioned in the podcast. In practice It is self inflicted but navigating processed food in a busy busy lifestyle sounds like navigating social media. There's a lot of professionals focused on getting the public hooked on whats bad for them. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Is It a Nostr door with a secret Key? npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter A hell of a lot of beer and wine in local bars in rural Spain 🥴 npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Everyone thinks they do a good job though. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter The pressure of inflation is really starting to bite in my part of Spain. Under the pressure of Rising prices and falling real income, people are going to say and do headless things that Will make them cringe looking back. Spain is full of enterprising people, youth is also on their side. But the tax system and the money printing system are destroying enterprise. The financial system is also driving rural populations into cities, robbing the countryside of guardians of the land as well as opportunity. I looked hard at a rural business development loan and Saw through It. It was set Up to trap me into the self employed system for several years, convincing me I would be getting ahead when the reality after expenses is glaringly the opposite. Did you know the average self employed person in Spain earns 700€ a month! The benefits system makes that feasible, but what a waste of resources. Listening to an online scam expert, the modus operandi of many scamsters could be levelled at government policies - lure you into a "safe space" before extorting you. Similar charges that the govt decides Who bad Guy terrorists are, when govts themselves use violence vía their police and armed forces to achieve their own political aims. It is so easy to point fingers and escalate the divisions and inequalities, but It it's getting time to decide not to. Understand that financial issues stress everyone into daft decisions and reactions - the local business cutting service and serving crap just to make ends meet needs support, just as the customers need to tell them to wise Up or lose all custom. Ditto govts and políticians need to be constructively confronted and told that their reliance on the Fiat system has to change else all walls Will come tumbling down, no moat wide or Deep enough to protect anyone in the system, especially the fiat wealthy. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter To the recent @nprofile…w4kf newsletter, I was harrassed by local bank into going in to a branch to confirm legal requirements. I have under 100€ in the account. They asked me a question and the teller ticked the box...nothing changed in 4 years. They are clowns, clueless and dumb box tickers. Play their game is easy when you have no stake in their stupidity. The worst case is they sanction your account. Ooooh. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Nostr, free speech unleashed, is on the correct path when you read this about attacks from anti freedom governments in bed with corporations. Nostr should end Up with all the info we need to arrive at a balanced view. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/sep/18/jimmy-kimmel-stephen-colbert-cancelled-free-speech npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter What? A tiler won't drill a hole in tiles? Wouldn't get a job where I worked. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Explained the limits of a machine we use, including demo, and It performed perfectly. But at the end of their session the customer was dissatisfied with the machine's performance. Not sure what to say, except, oh well, we managed their expectations and they chose to raise the bar to an unrealistic height. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Without an easy onboarding system all glittery Nostr app-ism is flawed imho npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter We are in a crazy world where anyone gives a hoot to crédit agencies Who rated the assets that nearly destroyed the global economy as AAA. It was baffling to me in the US how they use your crédit score as a lever and threat. I Guess if you are wed to the lunatic system, that works. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter So what do you reckon is going on when you "can't dance"? I have written loads of music and love music but like a woodentop on the dance floors. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Some people stack kids to be free. It used to be the way of the rural world for aeons to protect the family unit. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Controlled social media is a scourge on society. Freedom social media is wonderful. X, FB etc are just another example of how people really don't do well with a big stick. Controlling govt, controlling financial giants, controlling military, almost all of them could and should disappear and It would be a net positive, where real leaders emerge and everyone responds with all their energy and smarts, knowing It won't be sequestered npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I wish I could dance. It's that extra spiritual dimensión just out of reach :) npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Boring is a synonym for not dramatic. It's like reading a newspaper that tells the truth and there is no reason to get uppety. Just deal with the truth. Nostr is a really good resource. Ommmmm npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Couple of observations over the weekend. National grids are extremely complex and adding Intermittent energy to the grid raises that complexity to new levels. With current thinking around tech solutions - intelligent micro grids, fancified substations and more transmisión lines, that means expensive investment which means higher prices for clean energy for consumers. Admittedly It was a line from a movie but the definition of terrorism was - violence as a means to achieving a political aim. Hnmm. Think about that! Also the definition was submitted by the minister of defense Who later said, if you want to know what terror is, it's our military unleashed on the countries harbouring terrorists. This is Fiat economic thinking laid bare. Very powerful. So theres no good end to going up against It head to head. Just dont participate. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter They don't need one. Wave the Spanish tax Code at emigrants is enough for effective capital control npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter It's doing the average that keeps the average down npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter The UK tax system isnt' toobad compared to europe. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Maybe refine that to "well meaning people Who don't do their homework and cause chaos." I don't get It, we have access to so much good info. And the oldest meme I remember is" to be successful copy a successful person". It's so simple - with drugs copy Portugal. With education copy Finland...with how not to meddle with birthrates consult china, and so It goes on. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Check out Portugal. Legalising drugs properly/responsible takes more than a line of legislation. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I think Nostr is quite boring. Which is a positive! The users on Nostr are pretty much straight Up decent folk Who go from day to day being positive without being sensationalist. In other words, this is a platform escaping most of the influences of mainstream media and shit stirrers. Marvellous. 95% of people on earth could end Up on Nostr and be Happy :) #asknostr npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Is there anything more irritating or more sad an indictment of how we have evolved, than being asked in a social setting, "What do you do?" npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter @martybent is on the money with brics and gold. Chances are BTC follows as common currency as trust fails between the parties. Anti Bitcoin pro US govt schills insistíng the US is in charge. Idiots. Stablecoins another last gasp attempt to resucitate dollar. Who's listening to strong dollar antics? Nobody, beyond crickets, not even the Donald. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Local council budget is 3.2 m in, 3.8m out, balance made Up from Who knows where to appear "balanced". Largest business in town earns 80x the council budget. Viewed as friend of the town. No shit maynard. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter I "arm wrestle" my 13 year old with my Index finger and beat her. ( Never arm wrestle a Painter!!!) She doesnt believe that one day she Will thrash me in a real arm wrestle regardless of how hard I try. It's called the Life cycle. From cradle to grave is a circle, easy to observé. The only complication is that I think time is like a washing line too, and on top of that we don't die, our Spirit just Buzzes off somewhere else when our body craps out,, so not sure how that all fits together. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter When I started out clients made me lunch. As I got older they offered beers, and the last tip I had was a watercolour painting. At the end of the day though give me a batch of scones and I'd walk through walls for customers😄 npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter The Spanish versión of NASA have endorsed an anti emf coating. Paint, earthing techniques and a decent pitch, there is a business there. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter With the op-return debate has anyone checked history when bsv increased limit to 100kb? It didn't end well. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Perplexity ai makes research a breeze. Following Saylors advice get 90% of legalities ironed out by ai and hand over the polishing to a pro. I'm looking forward to seeing the reaction when a lawyer says I have to pay full whack to guarantee correct advice. I can see exactly how ai will wreck some traditional Jobs but create múltiples more new positions. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter In my experience adding a new layer of drywall has it's place ie a terrible ceiling is best overboarded. But it is not a cheap or simple option for walls where It requires either another contractor to coordinate with, ( never a good option!) or a change of chip for the Painter. ( Life is hard enough). It affects baseboards and sockets and finding joists. And without a plaster skim coat, taped drywall is an inferior finish to the system he is using. This way the Painter is a one man army and although metre for metre is shower, they can match the plasterers finish and in fact, by using specific fillers, if you get the Paint to match the grain size of the top filler coat, you will achieve a perfectly smooth topcoat finish without trying. Ie better finish than over drywall or even over a gypsum plaster finish. There is an even better solution, in terms of speed... I have worked with dozens of plasterers and I persuaded the best one to skim out a wall for me with one of these "painters plasters". He was very skeptical until he used It. It took him minutes to dab out a large wall and polish It Up, which surprised him. The Key though was when he Saw the finish when I Painted It in front of him. Him and his mates were putting their grubby fingers all over It It was so silly smooth and couldnt criticise anything. But it's very hard to find a great plasterer at the best of times. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Its not an American burger ( or any American dish) without cheese on top🤣 As a non American It is a peculiarity of the USA. Burger with cheese? No thanks, Id have asked for a cheese burger. How do you like your corn flakes? With cheese? Peace npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Similar experience with lack of hate here, but maybe the idea that Nostr brings out the best in people is an illusion. Do we know what relay Runners are censoring? Because they are responsible for whats on their servers, so It can't be a total Wild west where users can post what they like and the relays leave It Up to the users to whackamole each potentially vile poster. (This is a reference to the @bitcoinengineer insights into the lunacy of Bitcoin core 30 and 100kb opreturn with no filters. Every Bitcoin node Runner would essentially be agreeing to accept any file from any anon and open It Up on their computer to verify the contents. That cannot be, in any right thinking world. So, are Nostr relays not filtering anything? Not if they want to sleep at night. So back to the top, is there any way of knowing if they filtering out more than gross jpegs and movie files before new content hits the global feed? npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter https://youtube.com/shorts/LTTP31kIsxA Next level way to renovate walls for perfect #painting Fair play. Although there are some plasterers around Who can achieve a similar end result with a simpler approach, relying on great skills, there are way more painters Who can replicate this guy's approach and achieve a level 4/5 finish. Definitely a step Up for the painting and decorating trade. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Having been a Painter since early 80's, you need to prioritise indoor work year round if you want to work through the winter. It's so easy to slip into the trap of working outside when the Sun shines, but you are letting people down Who have inside Jobs to do in summer. I didn't make the rules but the sooner you become a specialist indoor worker, pick your trade, the sooner you Will solve that seasonal issue. Not blowing my own trumpet, but I went Up against dozens of good workers like yourself, hooked on painting in the summer, because that's what we were told by the old boys....Many wouldnt have It, but run the numbers and they were destined to always be on the backfoot. Miss a week of work and you know how long It takes to make that Up. It's soul destroying. Good luck be brave. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Scandinavia is where energy and bitcoin's at. Norway is over 100% renewable energy and they have a sovereign wealth fund equivalent to 1m$ per citizen. And they have mega hydro and aluminium smelters as customers of last resort now listening to Bitcoin miners. These are market leaders to listen to. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Bitcoin analysts are pandering to Fiat traders. Holders don't give a monkeys what you have to say, so how can you claim to be bitcoiners? Willy, check mate et al? Nice enough bright guys but come off It..... npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Can anyone remember Twitter 3 years in? @Rabble ? I recall it being a web developing club ie of no interest to most people. Is that a fair memory or was It more cosmopiltan? Trying to prewarn painters that they might not see much Paint material here - yet. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Is there a way to host a replit app on Nostr somehow? Nostr.build ? I know enough to be dangerous. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Hey @calle are there examples of cashu mints used at scale? Ie what size communities?

Big deal npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter hey @cuban I have been down several rabbit holes, ever thought that we are at checkmate? from the globally democratising internet boom in the late 90s to the bust to a revival to 2008. Then post GFC 2008 we dupe ourselves into thinking we have worked through the bad times till reality hits in the unreported bust in Sep 2019. From 2020 onward Tech Global doubled down. It's fanciful that there is a way out through tech. Even the purest form of money is now being demeaned by humans hanging on to the AI tails. Bitcoin will remain pure but it wlll be hijacked by AI, in effect ending up drained into some mega vault, far from humans. Its complicated, but it's not. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter building a nostr onboarding app on replit. eye opening. I wonder, AI powered by bitcoin, a curse? npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter This is the age where creatives make devs look good.

Go for It npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter An app but on replit, BEST way to host It so It aligns with Nostr values, and loads superfast. Usability trumps all. #asknostr npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Is there such a thing as a universal lightning wallet that a complete newbie could add to their Nostr profile and be Up for business. Self custody, custodial, irrelevante, just get newbies Up and running to see they can be zapped sats as well as zap others.

Within an hour of listening to my potted history of Bitcoin she went straight down the stranded energy mining rabbit hole - a no-brainer human interest story - and is going to pitch a show to an experienced documentary maker. In other words, the bitcoin marketing community just got a little bit more weighty and creative. If I can pitch Nostr right, there will be a new source of content. Also any devs and bitcoin businesses with a good story to tell but missing the in-house panache to nail the message, will have access to a super copy writer. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter https://b10c.me/ doing important work for the bitcoin nework npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter From what I can gather, Madeira is some sort of digital nomad Bitcoiner paradise. After looking online at the island's property, cost of living, cultural stuff - wow. If you come from anywhere other than "poor" Southern Europe and are after a grounded and truly cost-effective homebase with space for food growing, animals, and easy going lifestyle - I see no reason to look further than rural Spain. Just saying. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Doesnt @soapminer do proper soap?

They just pump the Bitcoin story for the benefit of the other 8 billion. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter Apart from a local bus ride and a local 2 minutes train ride every UK plane and train journey this past week has been delayed or cancelled. Ticketing is a joke, so Deep are The tentacles of privatised mismanagement It takes three providers to transport you less than 100 miles. The country is failing at the most basic service level.

Promise the moon, deliver rubbish. The nation is squandering so much opportunity and resources trying to act positive in a system stacked against them. All the while the few can maintain their monopolístic scam. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter AI is going to disrupt so fast, and governments are not equipped to react in time to try even out the major economic, employment and social disparities baked into the paradigm shift pie. Nothing new. A whole generation of bright young things passed through the Spanish higher education system and were released into the work world from the early 2000s onwards, well educated and willing, only to find that the government's investment department didn't get the memo about laying the groundwork for their employment opportunities on graduation. Germany and the UK say thanks! They recouped their investment in the education part of the EU budget and then some. Not being disparaging, but it could be argued that Spain boasts some of the best educated bar staff in Europe. Such a waste of priceless resources. npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter always look on the bright side of life. Just watch the GDP figures soar when society experiences: Divorce: The process of divorce can lead to increased spending on legal services, housing, and financial planning, stimulating various sectors of the economy. Illness or Disability: Health crises can drive demand for healthcare services, medical technology, and pharmaceuticals, leading to growth in the healthcare sector. Job Loss: While challenging for individuals, job loss can lead to retraining and reskilling initiatives, boosting employment in emerging industries and sectors. Family Emergencies: Situations like caring for a sick family member can lead to increased demand for home healthcare services and related industries. Substance Abuse Issues: The need for treatment and rehabilitation services can stimulate growth in healthcare and social services sectors, leading to job creation and economic activity. These social crises, while often difficult and painful, can create opportunities for economic growth and development in various sectors.

The worst place in the world is inside the head of a creative person with no capital! npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter In 2008 I returned to UK after 3 years in the USA. Painting away, listening to the radio, I was shocked by what I was hearing on the BBC chat and current affairs shows. It sounded like straight up propaganda, no balance as they claim to offer unlike anywhere else. I mentioned it to my accountant and good friend, a very wise, straight up person, the sort who knows how things work. I expected him to dismiss it or defend the mighty Beeb. Instead he gave me one of his wry smiles and said, "Funny you should mention that." Where's that meme? the more you know the crazier you sound! npub17jlav3akkp4eps6k2ke9uq2pcg6erdfj4kae9r4tsggttjamcnesyw4k7x Housepainter People in Spain are flooding into museums, art galleries and churches to escape the Heat.
