@freemo @khird Appreciate the replies! I waved off a buddy who advised me to buy BTC ~2012 saying "I already have monopoly money" -- guess which of us now owns a whole bunch of office buildings...

Remained 100% leery of the space until this Spring when I was attracted by the notion of 'easy money' through generative art NFTs. Luckily, I realized soon enough that A) While I could improve my coding, I'm not an artist and B) the artists that are making money are people who'd be making art regardless of NFT market. Skill and passion correlate (at least somewhat) to quality of output, hence the top-heavy distribution of earnings.

Relevant book by Nobel economist Robert Shiller "Narrative Economics: How Stories Go Viral and Drive Major Economic Events"...

I get the impression that whales and other market makers are more than happy to let segments like ICOs or NFTs pop up every few years, absorb new influx of fiat from retail investors (attracted by press stories on 'easy money'), market runs up, smart money exits near top, then retail gets spooked, market tanks, and long-term hodlers re-enter. Rinse and repeat every couple years. Along the way, the good traders have profited from volatility and platforms like OS take their cut all along the way.

Made a new furball friend. This time a doggo, my favorite of the furry animals (with italians being a close second). I didnt have any food for him but he insisted on pets the moment I met him, rolling right onto his back. Everytime i stopped petting him he would take his snoot and nudge my hand. If he sticks around I'm going to try to find him aome food.

Remember kiddies never return carts at the food market. Returning carts means less demand for employees, you are costing someone a job by returning your cart, dont be that asshole.

Wordle 216 4/6

Broke my 3 try win streak sadly, took 4 tries this time around.

@se7en I feel like there is a small, but non zero chance, there is a road somewhere in Japan called Bukkake road located somewhere in an area with a lot of porn studios.

@se7en That explains why when she asked those 12 jewish dudes to cum all over her they had no idea what she was saying!

@trinsec

There is always some element of luck, but strategies reduce that element. In fact if i used a regex-able dictionary (cheating) I could probably optimize a strategy that would win the vast majority of the time.

@trinsec
In a weird way i think it shows less skill to get it on the first try, at that point its just luck

I start with adieu to cover the vowels and d being a common last letter on words. Then my second word depends on what i get in the first but i try yo throw in a o and an r and make sure it is at least a possible solution given the hints on the first line.

So for today for example my second word was rotor since i knew o was the only vowel through process of elimination. Worked well today as i got it on my 3rd try. So far ive won each day in 3 tries, bit i need more of a history before i can claim that as a trend.

I was told to dress up for a costume party wearing a t-shirt with my favorite band on it... I may have misunderstood the instructions.

@trinsec Because the vast majority are bad which is obvious from interacting with them. But then since you never see good cops arresting the bad ones it is clear there must be no good cops or else the good ones would be arresting the bad. Worse yet if they tried to arrest a bad cop they would likely get fired and wouldnt be able to remain on the force at all. So the dynamic pretty much guarantees there are no good cops.

What starter word do you all use for wordle... I've been going with Adieu, gets me 4 out of 5 vowels, and d is a pretty common consonant.

@Pat
Ok so not a ui bug, just a nonintuitive ui, i will grant you that.
