People freaking out about rare earths should listen to this podcast, apparently the imports are really tiny (comparable to US spending on rare pepes) so even if Xi could spike the price like 10x that would still do basically nothing. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-15/javier-blas-on-china-s-rare-earths-metals-dominance Also a lot of it could be recycled so if Lockhead Martin are having trouble getting the stuff for their fighter jets they just have to go door to door collecting old vacuum cleaners

Saw this incredible frog sitting bang in the middle of the footpath to the Odashirogahara Marsh. I thought he might be sick as he wasn't moving but the Mrs used to run the frog study club at a biotech company and she says he probably just woke up

Somebody made a thing to abuse the Bluesky/AtProto DID:PLC directory to store arbitrary image files. https://plc.surge.sh/ This is the finest trolling I have seen all year and I help moderate a reddit

Did anybody ever do really simple "you have one job" types of DAOs? eg I want to be able to put money in a slot and a poster saying "Ethereum Is The Only Credibly Neutral Global Financial Platform" will show up in a financial district somewhere in the world Should be able to do this with pretty minimal governance

The lesson here which is relevant to Warpcast/FC is that it's all very well having a robust, decentralized protocol, but if everyone is using the same client then it won't give you much in practice. FC is worse here because not only is there a single overwhelmingly dominant client, it's literally fucking CLOSED SOURCE

What Bsky is doing here seems good to me, since have to follow laws: 1) Blocking is client-side only, Turkish users can use a different client and see the blocked posts 2) Blocked content is public, we can see what's blocked https://pdsls.dev/at://did:plc:cquoj7aozvmkud2gifeinkda/labels?uriPatterns=*

The age of the bullshit backdoored L2s is over. Come back to mainnet, there's loads of room and it's growing. We can take another look at the "L2"s when they're actually trustless, if that ever happens

On the one hand the world forcing Trump to back down on tariffs by selling US bonds is a power play like the one the US used on Britain in the Suez Crisis. But on the other hand it's just want Trump is asking for. The US trade deficit is: You get the world's stuff, we buy your debt. You don't want us to do that? OK

What do we think about transiting through China nowadays, do you have to leave your electronics behind and just use a burner laptop and shit or is that just for journalists and people who run proper companies and so forth

I feel like this has the be the Grand Finale of Trump because there's this storyline where everyone who supports him for some corrupt reason gets fucked over and humiliated but that normally happens one person at a time and now he's fucking over all of them simultaneously

Any cool stuff I should be looking to buy at a bargain price because they can't get it into Sakoku America? For example the Mrs needs a new car, are there now lots of spare cars

Tariffs are fucking crypto way worse than Gensler did so why aren't the congress people @standwithcrypto bought stopping the tariffs? They only need a few of them to vote with the Dems and all of this will end. You broke it, you should fix it.

More constructively, the US Congress can stop the tariffs. The US Constitution anticipated presidential malfunction and put Congress there to handle it. If you have a US congressman, and particularly if you helped fund one, call them and tell them you need them to do their job.
