Price still going down yo!

They don't trust you. They won't admit it. Smiley ... They should have sold at 52k as I told them. Tongue ... now they would have had 5K profit per coin owned. Tongue Tongue  Shocked  Cool  Roll Eyes  Grin  Cheesy  Cheesy

Price will go up again as well....

But never above ATH as I confirmed.

You have said it ... you haven’t actually offered any evidence to support your assertion.

What? You don't believe in maths and science?

Or TV signals: Our TV signals used to be easy to spot: A massive signal spike (the sync signal) followed by colorburst, then the X and Y of the scan line. Easy to spot, very repeating pattern, can't be nature made, obvious sign of intelligence. However now we have switched over to HDTV which is not only digital but encrypted digital so the stuff looks like background noise. And it's much lower power because once again efficient.

Yes. I believe if I recall my information theory lectures correctly, at the limits of compression, information is indistinguishable from noise. Anything that doesn't look like noise is a candidate for more compression.

In addition, broadcasting is inefficient and as our technology has improved, point-to-point communication has become realistic (in a similar way to the lighting. Indeed, I believe some places are beginning to experiment with conditional lighting where, for example, highway lighting only comes on when cars are actually using it and turn off when the roads are empty).

That sounds like a bioluminescence nightmare paved on a road with good intentions. We should go towards the path of spaceships, suborbital and orbital hotels and fighter jet type of interplanetary vehicles. Smiley  Roll Eyes  Roll Eyes

Order @ $47k just got filled. Next order set up to execute @ $46.5k - Set up down to $45k.

Buy @ $46.5k executed. Next order @ $46k.

dUNNO Man... Smiley ... Charts feel bullish. But in 10-11 hours we will find out! Tongue

This such boring movement last couple of weeks.. WO - when $60k??

There will be another dump attempt in 12'-ish hours. Smiley

But resistance feels strong! Cheesy Cheesy

... the Great Filter is most likely socialist Statism or some equally toxic ideology unleashing widespread mis-management of civilisations that wipes it out through war, famine or plagues.

... just as knowledge, concepts and ideas are the true wealth of civilisations, fallacies, myths, superstitions and toxic ideologies are its greatest dangers

edit: for civilisations to scale they need scale-free organisational concepts and structures ... not base-level, emotional, romantic, tribalist, power-centralising brutalism

I would totally merit you, but I don't have any anymore. Cheesy Cheesy

Also... had regret of not being more greedy to put a few hundred lower... Tongue ... it dipped to 46,700$ ... Cheesy Cheesy

I fix broken miners. And make holes in teeth :-)

Can't you just point it there, fire a thruster, and let it go it's course? (I mean, calculate where it should end up, but yeah, basically go towards the sun.)

Nope. I think Larry Niven covered this too, prolific guy. You either speed it up, which takes it to a higher orbit or slow it down which takes it to a lower orbit. To take it to an orbit low enough to burn up in the sun, you need to slow it down the whole amount that the earth is orbiting the sun (about 67000 mph). There's a little bit of fudge in this due to eliptical orbits and drag from the sun's atmosphere but that's the basic principle. Essentially anything you fire into the sun is going to get there on a spiral path.

Correct. I really recommend reading up on the Messenger probe that went to Mercury, it needed an insane amount of fuel and a number of earth and venus flybys to slow down enough to even get to mercury. In space speeding up takes energy, slowing down takes energy, everything takes energy :-)

In terms of space stuff remember that we lived to see the Viking landers. Those were pretty darn amazing.

In terms of great filters and the Fermi paradox, remember that one reason we might not see others is that they're just more efficient. Take lighting: For a long time the best way to see life on earth is to do a spectrographic analysis of our planet and you would see an insane line for sodium which is not natural. That's the sodium vapor lights we used for street lamps. Except now we are using LEDs which have far less light scattered upwards because they are much more efficient.

Or TV signals: Our TV signals used to be easy to spot: A massive signal spike (the sync signal) followed by colorburst, then the X and Y of the scan line. Easy to spot, very repeating pattern, can't be nature made, obvious sign of intelligence. However now we have switched over to HDTV which is not only digital but encrypted digital so the stuff looks like background noise. And it's much lower power because once again efficient.

That's in 100 years. There may be only a short window where we can spot other civs before they get efficient and encrypt everything because the Altarian Disney Company doesn't want to share their content without payment :-)

Just produce stuff off-planet and send it in. Launch trash towards the sun.

Ironically, it takes a lot of energy to drop stuff into the sun.

 Ah, just leave it on earth and it will eventually be gobbled up and vapourized.  No need for drastic measures now.


THis is a person who is taking a really long term view on the issue :-)

Of course, in the mid-to-long term, our buried trash is probably going to be mined for all the useful stuff we threw away.

Does Bitcoin Belong on Your Balance Sheet?

As more companies consider investing in digital assets, CFOs have much to consider about the nature of these instruments, the risks, and the benefits involved.

Bitcoin is GOD
i love this space talk in WO. before i was born men went to the moon. and everyone expected us to be in space by the year 2000.


fuck, that is two decades ago. i am over 50 now and the most interesting things that happened during my life time regarding the space frontier is elon musk sending a tesla towards mars and a team of female scientists from india successfully sending a probe to mars with a smaller budget than the movie the martian. (well ok, there were the voyager probes and the hubble telescope, too)


in general i feel a bit betrayed regarding human endeavors in space. whatever happened to the future?
One possibility is that the Great Filter is ahead of us instead of behind us, the Great Filter is an answer to the Fermi Paradox which roughly states that if life is as common as some estimates indicate then where is the evidence? The Great Filter basically states there is a very difficult step, a filter, between the emergence of life and space colonization.

If the step is behind us then space colonization is a given and we will begin as soon as our technology allows it, but if it is ahead of us then this means that either space colonization is way harder than we thought or there is an unknown step that we still need to overcome, like avoiding self-destructing ourselves with our technological advances.
