On, balance, yes.
Fertility is physically costly and trying to perform full-time at a day job far away from home can be a real burden. It does seem to run women down faster.
That said, a lot of the stress women feel is due to caretaking or household duties parallel to employment, and that's something a growing number of men also face, so I think the focus should be on promoting a breadwinner/caretaker split.

Let’s be precise: “Conversion to #EVs and solar” is horrible for the environment because of, among other things, mining, processing, and disposal. Such conversion, of course, is better for the #climate. We have not had a national conversation about whether this trade off is wise.

I agree 100% with the guy. The push for women going to work for an employer is just another scheme to be able to tax women as well, and to further camouflage the effects of inflation.
It is a man's job to take care of the protection and wellbeing of the family (financial, physical, logical, ...)
And it is a woman's job to be a force of love for the family so that each next generation are functional human beings.
Ofcourse if a woman wants to pursue a career instead, go for it, but don't expect a man to want a family with you. There's women ceo's but I guarantee most if not all are miserable because they are ignoring their natural purpose.

A lot of people who propose changes to bitcoin script 1) disagree with each other on which changes to do and 2) have a different view than what they had a year ago.
To me, this is indicative of a design space and risk/reward analysis that is not fully mapped out yet. As discussion and development continue, people rapidly change their view on what the best way to proceed is.
People often point to recent events to support their view. So for example, the fee spikes associated with Ordinals/BRC-20, and then more recently Runes, are currently used as reasons to accelerate base layer change proposals. That's a way to drum up emotional support and create a sense of urgency. But for example, if you took a snapshot of which script changes were most popular a year ago vs today, you'd have a different set for the most part. That sense of emotional urgency tries to lock in whatever the current thing is, even if a year from now the current thing is different based on ongoing development and discussion.
I don't mean niche programmers as an ad hominem. I mean developers of proposed scaling methods that are likely niche or at least not demonstrated yet to have broad demand, and want to change the base layer quickly with widespread agreement that a change is safe. And not everyone has to understand a change, but to get miners and node operators on board, it does take a pretty broad conviction.

Google Gemini can power a virtual AI teammate with its own Workspace account
https://o.aolcdn.com/images/dims?image_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fs.yimg.com%2Fos%2Fcreatr-uploaded-images%2F2024-05%2Fc168bb80-121e-11ef-bfdb-43e1d1c8b5b8&resize=1400%2C845&client=19f2b5e49a271b2bde77&signature=7997936b49d1e89cdf75f180951a5203bb2e4d62
Google's Gemini AI systems can do a lot, judging by today's I/O keynote. That includes the option to set up a virtual teammate with its own Workspace account. You can configure the teammate to carry out specific tasks, such as to monitor and track projects, organize information, provide context, pinpoint trends after analyzing data and to play a role in team collaboration.
In Google Chat, the teammate can join all relevant rooms and you can ask it questions based on all the conversation histories, Gmail threads and anything else it has access to. It can tell team members whether their projects are approved or if there might be an issue based on conflicting messages.
It seems like the virtual teammate was just a tech demo for now, however. Aparna Pappu, vice president and GM of Workspace, said Google has "a lot of work to do to figure out how to bring these agentive experiences, like virtual teammates, into Workspace." That includes finding ways to let third parties make their own versions.
While it doesn't seem like this virtual teammate will be available soon, it could eventually prove to be a serious timesaver — as long as you trust it to get everything right first time around.

Sparrow riascia il suo wallet nella versione v1.9.1 che supporta Testnet4
https://twitter.com/SparrowWallet/status/1790312602918126026
dopo alcuni giorni che Mempool.space, uno dei migliori Bitcoin Explorer, ha aggiunto la possibilità di "navigare" nei blocchi che vengono minati nella testnet4.
La testnet4 è quindi partita, e possiamo dichiarare la testnet3 "deprecata" come suggerisce Jameson Lopp, che ha condotto l'attacco a testnet3, definito da lui stesso "griefing attack"?
Forse ... o forse no. La comunità è divisa.
Questa testnet4 nasce dall'applicazione di una "pull request" chiamata "Testnet4 including PoW difficulty adjustment fix",
ovvero una fix che consente di lanciare una nuova testnet Bitcoin, risolvendo il bug della testnet3 che ha consentito di creare milioni di blocchi
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29775/commits/37e202adc1c734740104c6a5e1d2bd021102764e#diff-b1e19192258d83199d8adaa5ac31f067af98f63554bfdd679bd8e8073815e69d
Si vede ad esempio nel genesis block
https://mempool.space/testnet4/block/0?showDetails=true&view=actual#details
che c'è il messaggio:
testnet4_genesis_msg = "03/May/2024 000000000000000000001ebd58c244970b3aa9d783bb001011fbe8ea8e98e00e";
Il genesis block ha la data del 4 maggio 2024
https://mempool.space/testnet4/block/00000000da84f2bafbbc53dee25a72ae507ff4914b867c565be350b0da8bf043
e nella conbase transaction ha il messaggio che contiene la data 03/May/2024
e l'hash
000000000000000000001ebd58c244970b3aa9d783bb001011fbe8ea8e98e00e
del blocco 842000 della mainchain bitcoin.
Analogamente al messaggio
"The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks"
del genesis block creato da Satoshi Nakamoto per dimostrare che il blocco non era stato creato prima di quella data, inserire l'hash del blocco 842000 significa che non può essere stato creato prima della sua data di creazione, il 4 maggio 2024.
È presto per dire se questa sarà la testnet4 che sostituirà la testnet3, se il fix è sufficiente per evitare gli attacchi, e se la testnet3 verrà abbandonata, ipotesi quest'ultima che sembra abbastanza improbabile.
Ma piano piano questa testnet4 si sta diffondendo:
sullo storico forum bitcointalk si apre la discussione su come avviarla
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5496329.0 ,
in 10 giorni sono stati minati circa 25k blocchi, per lo più vuoti,
e il tempo medio del blocco adesso è ~5.4 minuti.

Powell Content With Economy, FED Interest Rate to Remain High
==========
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell expressed contentment with the shape of the US economy overall, indicating that the FED won't be in a rush to cut interest rates. Powell emphasized the focus on managing inflation and the importance of the Fed's credibility. The US economy is performing well, with strong consumer spending and business investment. The post-pandemic economy has shown resilience. The labor market is strong, with signs of gradual cooling and better balance between supply and demand. The US banking system is in good shape, but there is concern about the fast growth of lending activities by nonbank financial firms. Housing inflation remains puzzling. Overall, the economic data presents a positive outlook for the US economy, leading to the patience shown by the FED.

‘This is Horrible News’: Democratic Governor Slams Biden On Economics, Offers Own Plan to Crush Inflation
==========
Democratic Governor Jared Polis criticized President Biden's new tariffs on China, calling them 'horrible news' for American consumers and a setback for clean energy. Polis, a successful businessman, shared his own plan to reduce inflation, which includes dropping tariffs, repealing the Jones Act, and creating a bipartisan fiscal commission. The Jones Act is a provision that regulates shipments of goods to the U.S. Polis, the first openly gay man elected to statewide office in the U.S., was overwhelmingly reelected in 2022 and is term-limited in 2026.

Vulcan Program’s Delay Shows US Can’t Even Copy, Much Less Replace, Russia’s Rocket Engine Know-How
From Sputnik
A senior US Air Force official has sent defense contractors a strongly worded letter over delays to the Vulcan Centaur heavy-lift launch vehicle program – initiated to replace the workhorse Atlas V, which uses Russian-made RD-180 engines. The delay signals the US’s inability even to copy Russian-made equipment, a leading space researcher says.

Biden fires back at Trump's claim China is 'eating our lunch'
==========
President Joe Biden announced new tariffs on $18 billion worth of goods from China, targeting the country's electronic vehicle, medical, and heavy industries. Biden responded to Trump's claim that China is 'eating our lunch,' blaming the situation on his Republican rival. Both presidential candidates have tried to portray themselves as tough on China as they tout what they would do to help the U.S. economy. The tariffs are unlikely to have a significant impact and are phased in over the next three years. China's solar cell plants and steel and aluminum mills have enough capacity to meet much of the world's demand. The tensions between the U.S. and China go beyond a trade dispute and raise questions about who leads the world economy. The Biden administration views China's subsidies as trying to globally control the EV and clean energy sectors, while it says its own industrial support is geared toward ensuring domestic supplies. The tariffs are expected to increase friction between the world's two largest economies.

Saying blackrock, for example, “owns” their underlying Bitcoin ETF holdings is no different than saying Coinbase “owns” it since they actually hold custody.
They are required by law to hold the asset backing their ETF and so you could say it even “belongs” to the investors. All of these are ultimately incorrect.
Who really “owns” it is the US government as they could pass legislation to seize it at any moment. If they can change the constitution to legalize income tax, surrender their sole constitutional authority too coin currency to their banking donors and establish the Fed, issue an executive order to seize gold from private citizens, etc. then they can clearly pass legislation to seize the Bitcoin holdings in the event of a dollar collapse or “hyper-bitcoinization”.
In fact, it would be incredibly foolish of anyone to assume they wouldn’t.

Yes, I think that is precisely the truth that Radiohead is conveying to us.
Some of the greatest art is art that reveals how the mind works. Specifically, those aspects of the mind that we are hard wired to pretend don’t exist.
In my mind, going down the rabbit hole = defiance of the societal mandate to maintain pretense. The trick is to understand, from a scientific perspective, why the mandate to pretend exists in the first place. If you’re going to rebel against a rule, it helps if you first understand how and why the rule came into existence.

Watermelon Honey! 1 ingredient! Easy recipe ♥ 🍉🍯
Ingredients:
- 1 large watermelon
Instructions:
1. Cut the watermelon into chunks, removing the seeds and rind.
2. Place the watermelon chunks in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
3. Pour the pureed watermelon into a large pot or saucepan and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.
4. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the watermelon simmer for about 1-2 hours, stirring occasionally, until it has thickened to a jam-like consistency.
5. Keep an eye on the jam and stir more frequently as it thickens to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
6. Once the watermelon jam has thickened, remove it from the heat and let it cool completely.
7. Transfer the cooled jam into sterilized jars or containers and store them in the refrigerator.
8. Enjoy your homemade sugar-free watermelon jam on toast, pancakes, yogurt, or as a topping for desserts! 🍉 https://image.nostr.build/9aab13c0d027e335f4e234db6f0f627e2344135858a810bd0e6284af99f1d0d7.jpg

Google's Gemini Nano brings better image-description smarts to its TalkBack vision tool
https://o.aolcdn.com/images/dims?image_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fs.yimg.com%2Fos%2Fcreatr-uploaded-images%2F2024-05%2F107fa5a0-11d2-11ef-b7bd-7dbab4f8d9bc&resize=1400%2C787&client=19f2b5e49a271b2bde77&signature=be7acd5333fa28cf4322875204466828f086c620
The Google I/O event is here, and the company is announcing lots of great updates for your Android device. As we heard earlier, Gemini Nano is getting multimodal support, meaning your Android will still process text but with a better understanding of other factors like sights, sounds and spoken language. Now Google has shared that the new tool is also coming to it's TalkBack feature.
TalkBack is an existing tool that reads aloud a description of an image, whether it's one you captured or from the internet. Gemini Nano's multimodal support should provide a more detailed understanding of the image. According to Google, TalkBack users encounter about 90 images each day that don't have a label. Gemini Nano should be able to provide missing information, such as what an item of clothing looks like or the details of a new photo sent by a friend.
Gemini Nano works directly on a person's device, meaning it should still function properly without any network connection. While we don't yet have an exact date for when it will arrive, Google says TalkBack will get Gemini Nano's updated features later this year.
Catch up on all the news from Google I/O 2024 right here!

The price of GameStop hit $80 in premarket trading today, and then collapse all the way back down to 39.
This is not retail. Most small investors don’t have access to premarket, trading and disposable income is basically drained from the pandemic stimulus.
There are massive institutions that have a vested interest in GameStop, and they shorted more shares than exist, which created wall of failure to delivers, which occasionally come back in the form of these price spikes .
This is all the more evidence that the Fiat financial system is completely broken, and bitcoin is the solution. https://image.nostr.build/5390f27bfe1802f4e40b8830c9c794f3f41d632626320fa4b1dc757cc741ae0d.jpg

If you genuinely want real change in the world, start with your words…
I don’t think people realise how powerful language is in today’s society, sharing words of wisdom, kindness and love changes everything.
In a weird way language in the future could be used as direct proof and indication of the universe being some sort of living organism, overtime the language begins to build on top of each other, with layers upon layers, until eventually you hit an omega point, where each individual becomes consciously aware of it, you can already see this type of mechanism happening around you by looking at the curvature of technological advancement, every technology is built from the previous advancement, and so the same mechanisms could be used within language, want real change? start with words.

"Is freedom from suffering the end of pain, anger, and unpleasant emotion, replaced by everlasting bliss?
Sorry, but no.
That wouldn’t be very realistic or very human.
Suffering is not pain, but the avoidance of it.
Let me say that again: The definition of suffering is the avoidance of pain.
Pain demands attention, and when it is avoided, it repeats itself over and over again. Suffering is the experience of the same repeating pain.
Herein resides the grand paradox. In order to overcome suffering, you must experience your pain fully."

Good evening #nostr
Turns out that the underlying smart contract doesn't care how much coins are going through, or where they came from, or who they belong to, or where they went. I will never know nor will my funds.
How much did I earn from it? Around 75 USD in ADA.
Do I regret not getting more fees? No, #Freedom should be free and for everyone.
#crypto gives people some kind of freedom.
The #Bitcoin maxis will call everything else a shitcoin. I always say that chains like cardano are not made to be an investment, they are tools for freedom. A utility, something to work with. I own quite a bit of #ADA and don't have a problem if the price stays below a dollar.
Don't speculate with utility tokens! Work with them, build with them, learn, fail or succeed...

The Commodity Theory of Money is to the Credit Theory of Money exactly what #sex is to #gender!
The former is based on physical reality, the latter on "performative acts of speech".
@lynalden nails it:
"Over the long arc of time, ... it will almost always be better to hold a scarce commodity money directly than to hold the promise made by a kingdom, empire, or nation-state." Broken Money, p53

I think you are misinterpreting what the mrna vaccines are doing. Its not entering your DNA.
MRNA AND IMMUNE SYSTEM EXPLAINED
The mrna is encapsulated in Lipid nanoparticles that enters your body and merges with any cell in your body, and it starts making toxic spike proteins, but these cells do not duplicate. The cells who are expressing this foreign antigen spike protein is targeted for destruction by the T-cells. Thats why you get all the adverse events from the jabs.
LINGERING MRNA IN BODY
While there might be lingering traces of mrna and spike in a vaxxed person for an unknown time, there's is no evidence of blood lineage itself being permanently altered.
The mrna is rapidly diminishing from the body after one month.
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41541-023-00742-7
Traces can be found up to a year in rare cases.
MRNA AND SPIKE IN BLOOD
As this is a lineage directed question I think it's important to mention possible contamination in blood. This also seems transitory, but there is no real research regarding screening for blood. Here is a preprint.
https://www.preprints.org/manuscript/202403.0881/v1
There is no evidence that everyone who got vaccinated has contaminated blood. And there's nothing indicating its permanent. But I wouldn't take blood right now unless it was screened.
ANTIBODY CLASS SWITCHING
What worries me is the people who were boosted with mrna because their immune system is trained to tolerate the spike protein rather than eliminating it, resulting in people getting sick more times and takes time to recover.
Antibody class switch to non-neutralising antibodies starts happening after the 2nd dose and is increasing with each booster dose. These people might have risks of accumulating spike proteins in their bodies which is a huge health risk. Hopefully not permanent.
https://youtu.be/y_LJIUULWIU?si=Dmo_oUwg8JOfzlKP
MRNA BIODISTRIBUTION
The vaccine material doesn't stay in your muscle, the Lipid nanoparticles and synthetic mrna can reach many organs, such as the spleen, heart, kidneys, lungs, ovaries testes and brain. Here's just one govt study that was hidden from public:
https://www.tga.gov.au/sites/default/files/foi-2389-06.pdf
Here is a study about finding it in breast milk.
https://www.thelancet.com/journals/ebiom/article/PIIS2352-3964(23)00366-3/fulltext
I have also seen findings of spike protein found in sperm, in pathological studies. Which is very alarming.
IN CONCLUSION:
No evidence that your lineage is compromised. This is a common conspiracy theories among "pure bloods".
The science isn't there yet to prove that your genome is being compromised. However its not really fully disproven either as this is an ongoing experiment done on a massive scale.
There are some studies showing that the virus can enter the DNA both from infection and from the vaccine from in vitro studies, but it hasn't been replicates in vivo.
That doesn't mean we are out of the woods yet.
If one of you are vaxxed, don't take another booster. The less jabs you took the better you're off. Focus on getting healthy if youre sick, do therapy to flush any lingering spike protein or mrna out of the body.
If unsure, give it time.

Google's Gemini will search your videos to help you solve problems
https://o.aolcdn.com/images/dims?image_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fs.yimg.com%2Fos%2Fcreatr-uploaded-images%2F2024-05%2F15423330-1184-11ef-a0ff-9574304716fb&resize=1400%2C994&client=19f2b5e49a271b2bde77&signature=2690fc0af2c66e8b0aa2f2342d5c2230e795dfe6
As part of its push toward adding generative AI to search, Google has introduced a new twist: video. Gemini will let you upload video that demonstrates an issue you're trying to resolve, then scour user forums and other areas of the internet to find a solution.
As an example, Google's Rose Yao talked onstage at I/O 2024 about a used turntable she bought and how she couldn't get the needle to sit on the record. Yao uploaded a video showing the issue, then Gemini quickly found an explainer describing how to balance the arm on that particular make and model.
Google
"Search is so much more than just words in a text box. Often the questions you have are about the things you see around you, including objects in motion," Google wrote. "Searching with video saves you the time and trouble of finding the right words to describe this issue, and you’ll get an AI Overview with steps and resources to troubleshoot."
If the video alone doesn't make it clear what you're trying to figure out, you can add text or draw arrows that point to the issue in question.
OpenAI just introduced ChatGPT 4o with the ability to interpret live video in real time, then describe a scene or even sing a song about it. Google, however, is taking a different tack with video by focusing on its Search product for now. Searching with video is coming to Search Labs US users in English to start with, but will expand to more regions over time, the company said.
