a) if you feel sleepy anytime after, say 8pm, don't fight it, just go to sleep. Yawning is sleepy.

b) if you ignored a) and now you're not sleepy, take a melatonin, and then don't fight a) again

c) Get some exercise. Try to get some sunlight when you wake up. Use a SAD light if you can't get natural light.

d) Don't stress about your sleep unless it's actually causing a problem.

The central bank (government) issues money in two forms:

1. Paper money (notes and coins)

2. Digital money (deposit account at the central bank)

#1 is not practical for much modern commerce, e.g. online shopping.

#2 is only available to banks and a few other select institutions

So, most of us don't really use government issued money much. We use money issued by retail banks (credit balances in checking accounts) and, due to deposit guarantee schemes, everyone is happy to accept that private money as if it is government money.

Central banks are still exploring model of CBDC. They could expand #2, and allow any of us to hold central bank deposit accounts. But some central bankers worry that they are not the best folks to provide consumer services, so maybe private companies should design and operate the apps which will interface with the central bank's ledger.
There's no other word for people from the United States because of the weird naming of the country.

Canada - Canadians, Mexico - Mexicans, Brazil - Brazilians.

United States - ......United Statesians?

That's like people from the DRC calling themselves 'Democratic Republic of the Congolesians.' Nope, they just shortened it to Congolese. The United States of America just did the same thing. 'Americans.'

They all use it, and for the most part so do their neighbors.

Until some clever soul figures out a better way for the bologna of the North American sandwich to refer to it's citizens, the largest collection of English speakers on the planet will probably keep on trucking with the same boring term.

Hmmm, that’s a good question, I couldn’t find much information publicly available and I can of course not disclose internal. But there’s a little in this annual report from 2015. There’s an rudimentary illustration on the second page. Unfortunately it doesn’t include many of the details which I found most impressive, we had just started the project in 2015, so that might be why.

Is this like the dot com bubble? My understanding is that the mindset of the time was a true mania - people were convinced it was the new normal and that businesses got insane valuations preproduct even. It seems like with a lot of these bubbles everyone is like “get in this stupidly inflated asset with money you can lose to try and make a quick buck” with retail investing at all time highs rather than some dramatic distortion in people’s perspectives. Even while assets are so inflated the investor sentiment still seems sober.

All of their free games do have "loot crates" system, but in Dota 2 and CS:GO, it's only cosmetics. TF2, you can also get weapons and in theory all weapons are "balanced", though in practice perfect balance doesn't exist, and also having more options available + being able to switch loadout during a match can be more OP. That being said, the weapons themselves aren't very rare, and you can get most of them fairly quickly, or craft the ones you need. Hats are more rare but those are again just cosmetic.

Important note: central bank digital currencies are not crypto currrencies. They are not block chains. They are not decentralized. They are not permissionless. I cannot find a record of any CBDC which clearly states that it want's to use any of these technologies. I'd be interested to be proven wrong.

Central bank digital currencies are essentially a new hybrid monetary/fiscal policy tool. Historically the Federal reserve and many other central banks function by buying and selling the debt of their sovereignty to influence interest rates. They pay for these securities by essentially creating money that didn't exist before and trading it to an institution for their debt security. For a long time this money has just been digital, when the Fed creates money to buy a bond from JP Morgan, all they do is to update a line in a database. So they already have a digital currency, but only for dealing with large institutions.

The idea of these new CBDCs is to setup a similar system but where the digital currency could be distributed to individual citizens. This would give the Fed a more powerful tool than it has ever had before because giving money directly to people is almost guaranteed to create real economic activity unlike adding to bank reserves(which is why we haven't seen meaningful inflation after 11 years of the Fed spamming reserve creation).

Some of this is lightly speculative but a detailed scheme which is almost exactly this was already proposed in a bill to congress, The Banking For All Act: https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/senate-bill/357...

I don't think it is hyperbolic to say that CBDCs are the "how" part of MMT. They take most of the logistical difficulties out of direct to citizen cash transfers and this is their primary goal.

Yes. Anyone who has had to handle the affairs of someone in that "greatest generation" who has passed away knows, the amount of stuff they have accumulated is immense, almost overwhelming.

It was a charming part of their lives (e.g. going to see all 7 of grandma's prized typewriters in their basement), but trying to sell those 7 typewriters on ebay only to just give up and have some estate sale person come through and basically pay a small portion of the value of things just to get it off your hands is the only option.

Applying negative interest rates can be a good thing depending on what policy the central bank pursues, and they don't add to any risk of hyperinflation, because central banks if anything pursue price stability or targeted inflation as one of their policy goals. (and have been very good at it in fact, and digital cash changes no incentives here).

I personally have absolutely no problem with them and I'd be very glad if I could settle every transaction with a digital Euro. I don't particularly enjoy the middlemen in the form of countless payment processors who all take cuts out of transactions, and I don't really see what privacy or tracking burden applies that existing firms don't already engage in.

To me the payment infrastructure consisting of countless of private firms seems more like a relic of the past. Free, instant financial services to me are ideally a public utility in the same way the water or transport infrastructure is.

I get your point with Decentraland, but the dynamic data is all on the Ethereum network, the static data is all on IPFS, and anyone can run a node and have their own instance of the world for them and their friends to play on.

Sure, they have some hard coded authority for which NFTs get included in their marketplace, but people are free to switch that up on their own instances.

Sure, there are ways in which it could be more decentralized, but it's a hell of a lot more decentralized than anything else like it. I'm doubtful that any further decentralization would provide additional value to the ecosystem. If the devs go crazy though, it would take maybe a day for a handful of people to fork it and correct any leadership issues with the project. So far though, the leadership has been fine IMO.

To the uninitiated some of what you say may sound like conspiracy thinking. But it’s really not. People in ECB have been talking along these lines for over a year. Here is the latest example. [1] The more you follow it the more it really seems like if the people in the ECB had their way they’d force everyone to live paycheck to paycheck and never save. They’ve been running negative interest rates and they don’t work (because they simply, empirically don’t). They won’t accept the empirical evidence and go back to the drawing board. Instead the problem in their minds is always they’ve never gone far enough! They want to keep doubling down and try to gain more and more centralized control of people’s money.

You don't need a transaction to be routed by many nodes: how quickly it propagates (and thus how quickly it gets included/confirmed) just depends on how much hashing you do before sending it.

The halving penalty on work just forces attackers (who have +1 routing hop compared to honest nodes) to double the work of those honest nodes if they wish to outcompete them in producing a longer chain (i.e. no 51% attack).

It also allows users to respond to attacks in real-time by affixing harder proofs to their transactions, increasing the attack-cost on the network in minutes should anyone try to pull off the sort of gambit described in the linked page.
That keychron looks so nice! I quite like the color scheme.

> I'd be very glad if I could settle every transaction with a digital Euro. I don't particularly enjoy the middlemen in the form of countless payment processors who all take cuts out of transactions

Are we sure those digital currencies would be handled directly and fully by the central bank at no (direct) fee per transaction? Who's to say that the way things currently work won't stay exactly the same, except for your Visa card being denominated in dEuros instead of Euros?

I may be a pessimist, but the way I see it, the current end-user facing financial system (retail banks and payment processors) are much too big and much too greedy to stand idly by while the central bank takes their pie away.
