Big troll, bad patent: Intellectual Ventures sues florist for “crew scheduling” with a computer. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2016/03/stupid-patent-month-mega-troll-intellectual-ventures-hits-florist-do-it-computer — EFF (@EFF) March 31, 2016

California-based electric motorcycle manufacturer, Alta Motors, builds some of the fastest and most advanced, competition-ready electric motorcycles in the world. Founded in 2008 by Marc Fenigstein, Derek Dorresteyn, and Jeff Sand, Alta Motors is arguably the Tesla of motorcycles. The company claims that “mile for mile, there is no smaller, more compact, energy dense battery pack in transportation” than the ones used in the company’s line of all-electric motorcycles, including the Enduro (EX), Motocross (MX), and Supermoto (SM). I sat down with Alta Motors’ CEO on the NextMobility podcast to discuss the company’s current lineup and their upcoming products. …

https://www.sec.gov/rules/sro/cboebzx/2021/34-93559.pdf I'm calling BS on this move by the commission. They approve a futures based casino Bitcoin ETF to essentially "print more bitcoin on demand" to disrupt the market when they want.... and then reject a Spot price based Bitcoin ETF to "protect the consumer" from market manipulators? What a clown world we live in.... Politicians need to review the SEC fast.

Bitcoin miners major costs are electricity and cooling afford buying the hardware. The miners are heavily invented to find the lowest possible cost of energy in existence. With an incentive to lower the costs of mining, they are pushing the limits of using renewable resources at damns, solar, and wind. Beyond renewables you’re beginning to see smart use of miners working with energy companies to convert natural gas that has been getting flared (burned) and instead converting it to power mining equipment. Does every miner do this? No. But it means that the industry is going to continue to push for renewables where the cost helps their business mode the most. …

This is unprecedented in a bull market. Few understanding what is about to happen

This is good for the environment AND will save a few lives in the process. This might not be good news for gold mines somewhere in Nicaragua however. I don't expect this to happen overnight though.

I figured I should at least mention this here, I find it interesting In translation - God fearing brothers and sisters. Has any one of you, living in the East Coast notice anything odd last night? Some odd colored green light in the sky that was bright, possibly a meteor. Possibly the rarest time I seen this guy not being dramatic and poetic. He was referring to something associated with this story. That being said, I am already debating some people in regards to it, for an obvious reason. https://www.wsls.com/weather/2021/11/11/wow-bright-green-fireball-lights-up-the-night-sky-in-southwest-virginia/

The money goes to whoever the bank wants to give it to. What a splendid system we have set up that surely cannot result in inequality. "But Bitcoin Is tOO hArd to UNderStAnD and Is bAseD on nOtHing!!"

According to the Bible there were no carnivores before the flood and animals did not fear us.

In his testimony to the US Senate last spring, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg emphasized that his company doesn’t sell user data, as if to reassure policymakers and the public. But the reality—that Facebook, Google, Twitter, and other social media companies sell access to our attention—is just as concerning. Actual user information may not change hands, but the advertising business model drives company decision making in ways that are ultimately toxic to society. As sociologist Zeynep Tufekci put it in her 2017 TED talk, “we’re building a dystopia just to make people click on ads.” ... Google and Facebook figured out how to commodify "reality" itself by tracking w…

Bitcoin has now closed its third red monthly candle in a row, meaning BTC/USD is now the furthest away from its stock-to-flow model estimates in more than two years. Data shows the world’s biggest cryptocurrency fell 40.36% in Q2… the biggest quarterly plunge in over three years. Plan B said the next six months will be “make or break” for the stock-to-flow model, adding: “Even for me it is always a bit uneasy when Bitcoin price is at the lower bound of the stock-to-flow model.”

FED'S POWELL: I DO THINK IT'S TIME TO TAPER; NOT TIME TO RAISE RATES Powell: Fed's Inflation, Employment Goals are 'Somewhat in Tension' our models did not predict this! POWELL: THIS IS NOT A SITUATION THAT OUR "PATIENT" APPROACH OF FRAMEWORK WAS DESIGNED FOR POWELL: WE'RE STILL 5M JOBS BELOW HIGH IN 2020 POWELL:HIGH INFLATION WILL LIKELY LAST WELL INTO NEXT YEAR (what happened to transitory?) (and 6 months ago they were calling it "deflation") . POWELL: I DON'T LIVE IN A WORLD OF CERTAINTY (Just a world where Fedcard pays for all the groceries)

Bitcoin.org has blocked U.K. visitors from downloading Bitcoin Core software, as well as the whitepaper authored by Satoshi Nakamoto. It comes days after a British court ruled in favor of self-proclaimed Bitcoin creator Craig Wright. He had accused Bitcoin.org and its current operator Cøbra of copyright infringement for hosting the BTC whitepaper in the U.K. Cøbra elected not to mount a defense in order to protect their anonymity — and was also ordered to pay interim legal costs of £35,000 (about $48,600.) The judgment is the latest salvo in Wright’s assault on people who dispute his claim of being Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto.
