Again, you misrepresent. I was referring to the 90-day pause and the "Apple" exception.
PS: Trump has just rolled back the 90-day rollback, so... tariffs are in place? Who the fuck knows anymore.
Tariffs that never happen, that were just blustered threats, cost taxpayers nothing.
Other than these Apple exceptions, tariffs are very much in place. Including the 125% China counter tariff.
Good luck finding buyers for all those soybeans come next harvest season.
Why do they crave to people without basic logic foundation operating on a premise "my interpretion of the ad is 'the' interpretation everyone should use"?
Yo *do* understand how ads are supposed to work, right? If a good chunk of the audience finds an advertisement off-putting, that's bad advertisement.
If I tell an AI to make an image, I have provided human input. I have directed it.
In the same sense you've "cooked" if you tell a chef want you want for a meal, i guess.
The crowd babbling about "prompt engineering" are so detached from reality it's not even funny.
Most smart people don't bet their entire companies on moonshot ideas like "the metaverse" either.
I can't recall any recent tech company pouring so, so much money on something no one seems to give two shits about.
Um, 10k out of 86,400 is roughly 11%...
The entire crypto "economy" is propped on Tether. It's smoke and mirrors all the way down; there's very little real money circulating in this system. It's only a matter of time until we get liquidity run for the ages.
Remember, Tether is a company reportedly managing ~$72bn in hard assets... which is also apparently unable to open a bank account anywhere.
This is what Boomers and Gen X can't get their heads around - stupidity is timeless. Look at the multi-level-marketing (literal pyramids) that those generations got sucked into. Look at all the cults from the 50s through the 90s. This is just the cycle of the old shitting on the young. At least this generation isn't giving their money over to spiritual con men that then talk them into radical behavior, even suicide.
This is peak, top-of-the-shelf, distilled cognitive dissonance.
Thank you

You misspelt "work".
Not sure what you are talking about, since you are writing this on a forum hosted on protocols with the same routing problems.
Huh? What in the name of the fuck are you talking about? Routing in Lightning has little to do with the internet, in the sense that you need to know channel balances in advance to build a viable path. What is already a NP-hard problem is then compounded with a myriad of other issues - for example, the cost trial-and-error path selection, or how intermediate nodes are forced to freeze required funds in their channels while path are negotiated.
The best part though? Bitcoin is not even required for something like Lightning to exist. You could settle channels on, say, Paypal accounts, and the end result would be the exact same. The best solution people found to work around Bitcoin limitations was to build something which is fundamentally the opposite.
Oooh boy.
Lightning not only doesn't solve any issues associated with bitcoin, it introduces a whole new set of them. Have they even solved the routing problem yet?
Why is it a state secret? Everyone know El Salvador bought higher and about how much.
No, we just know what Bukele tweets every now and then.
What are El Salvador's government wallet addresses?
The latter was fixed long ago with lightning.
This statement will never not make me laugh. People are insane.
One of the few stocks I own that's doing well. Most are duds.
You mean, the stock that's -70% YTD?
In a normal company, shareholders would've already ousted the CEO in charge of that mess.
