Eventually every altcoin will die. People are building on Bitcoin because it is the best base platform. Etherium can't scale, and has an increasing money supply so it is inherently flawed. In the end, there will only be Bitcoin. It will be the only money of the internet.

Some of the best teachers do nothing more than explain their thinking well. It brings clarity to why you are asking a certain question, want a certain test, or feel uncomfortable in a given situation. Say the quiet part out loud.

A Currency Crisis? When the long-term charts all start pointing to a single event risk, I pay attention. When those charts are at the KEY level, I focus. And when they break, it is time for action... Something really BIG is going on...

Just published: #Vaping use has rapidly increased. In this report from Wisconsin and Illinois Departments of Public Health, a severe respiratory illness in otherwise healthy young people is described.

Back on January 21st, the first patient in the United States was announced to have the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) infection. That person was diagnosed and treated in Washington State. The patient was in the hospital for two weeks and has subsequently recovered. #coronavirus

The virus makes us fear for our health. It imprisons us in our homes and steals our productive time. The virus makes us value our health. It delivers us to our homes and gives us free time. Let’s become the healthiest we’ve ever been.

Still don't think people get that the change in the number of detected coronavirus cases *today* reflects: 1) what was happening ~10-12 days ago, since that's roughly the lag between when transmission occurs and when positive tests show up + 2) changes in testing volume

Holy shit this one's good- everyone with a lasercutter and a hospital contact, ask if they want one of these- intubationbox.com

Markets are not functioning as you've seen in prior decades. Globally, fiscal spending and monetary policies are warping free and open markets into Franken-Economies. This means, as things move forward, the performance of stock and bond markets are going to be highly dependent 1/

Ok, I have to say something, especially as I keep getting pulled into in these posts. COVID-19 causes ARDS. I keep hearing the refrain that it is not ARDS because “the compliance is normal.”

This pandemic will hopefully mark the end of the perversion of higher education. Since the 1980s, kids and parents have been forced to play a series of stupid finite games - grades, extra curriculars, influence peddling, donations for infinite assets: skills and knowledge.

My statement on the death of George Floyd:

Pulling out of WHO is a disaster for the lives and health of all people, including Americans. I can’t imagine a worse thing to do in the midst of a pandemic and ongoing work to fight back TB, HIV, polio, and other health threats. America First does not work for global disease.

I’m sure I’m gonna get replies from nonbelievers but I’d like to ask my Christian followers out there: Why don’t we as a church explicitly address White Supremacy and racism on Sundays? Why don’t we engage the truths of America and how it’s values are antithetical to the Gospel?

I pose a second question: Is it not directly the responsibility of the Church to dismantle and defeat White Supremacy? Is equality not the basis for forming the body of Christ?

Learning to code is overrated. If you want to be able to engineer scalable, maintainable complex systems then you must learn computer science. And here you can... laconicml.com/computer-scien…

ICU Pharmacy pearls: If u have not heard the news, there is a national shortage of IV hydrocortisone (HC) ... ashp.org/drug-shortages… So, if u are like me & use often HC in septic shock, u need to be aware of other options. If HC (Solu-Cortef®) is not available, consider use of
