Google's AI Overview completely hallucinated the existence of "unsafe" for the Zig language.
Grok 3 correctly says that Zig doesn't have unsafe blocks.

Accidentally orange-pilled a sticker vendor in Mexico. I only had 500 peso notes, and he didn't have change. So I had him install Wallet of Satoshi and sent him 100 pesos (~$5 USD) via Lightning.
He was actually pretty clueful. He seemed to understand that this was like digital gold. He also seemed to understand me when I explained how Bitcoin was a protocol – kinda like email – and that's why I was able to use different software to send him Bitcoin than Wallet of Satoshi. And he seemed to understand that since the amount was so small, Wallet of Satoshi was the one who actually had his Bitcoin, not him.
Second time I found someone who was willing to accept ₿, but normally didn't. First time was a t-shirt vendor who knew all about Bitcoin, but didn't himself have a wallet, and just got his friend to accept it for him.
Bitcoin is getting to the point where so many people know about it that you don't have to convince people its valuable. They already basically know what it is even if they've never personally used it.

I was on a panel recently in DC with one of the sponsors of this bill, State Representative Warren Davidson.
He's awesome. I didn't need to push the ideals of freedom. He did it for me.
Ensuring that you can always pay cash is essential for financial freedoms; this bill is a very good start.

Trump is hopelessly weak here. But one thing in particular is how he keeps on both-siding losses.
Most Russian soldiers are dying from drones, like these men. Look at their faces:
They're not young boys forced into war. They're older men who knowingly signed up to help slaughter Ukrainians for money. A lot of money. Enough of them survive to make it worth it.
It's a good thing when these psychopaths are kille and injured. And Putin and Russian society in general don't give a fuck about their deaths. Trump appealing to humanity just goes to show he has absolutely no control over the situation.

Best video so far of the Russian ammo depot that Ukraine blew up today, 65km north-east of Moscow. Not even the main explosion. Just a secondary.
A 5km radius was evacuated, and Russians in the area complained of impacts from debris thrown by the explosions. NASA's fire monitoring satellite system shows an enormous fire:
Fact is, if Ukraine can successfully, repeatedly, hit ammo depots right by Moscow they can destroy the Russian “civilian” economy and end the slaughter of Ukrainians. The only obstacles are funding, and the scumbags who keep complaining about the safety of Russian “civilians”.
There is zero reason why Moscow's four airports should still be operating. At the very least, blow up the fuel tanks and destroy the ATC towers and radars. Shutting down convenient travel to Moscow would be a big hit to their economy.

“This is the hand of the man that the Democrats feel should be brought back to the United States, because he is such “a fine and innocent person.” They said he is not a member of MS-13, even though he’s got MS-13 tattooed onto his knuckles, and two Highly Respected Courts found that he was a member of MS-13, beat up his wife, etc. I was elected to take bad people out of the United States, among other things. I must be allowed to do my job. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” - Donald J Trump
It's hilarious how effectively and brutally Trump has played the left with this.

The US could lose the next war if it doesn't learn from Ukraine's mastery of drone warfare.
There's 1000+ Russian casualties per day right now, about 75% of which are due to drones. Ukraine has been able to push back Russian supply logistics 50km+ from the front lines with drones – anything closer gets destroyed, fast. Russia is advancing slightly in some areas. But at a truly absurd cost.

Now that the truth is finally admitted, next step is investigations and criminal prosecutions.

“The wife of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Salvadoran migrant whose wrongful deportation to El Salvador is at the center of a legal battle with the Trump administration, had a temporary order of protection against him in 2021 in which she cited being slapped, hit with an object, and being detained against her will, according to court documents”
Trump is really good at trolling the left into taking ridiculous sounding positions protecting people who are quite likely scumbags.
Also, there is good evidence that he was a MS13 gang member; I'm not surprised El Salvador isn't interested in giving him back.
