Re: Trump Tariff Risks Are Fueling a Chaotic Hunt for Gold in London

Here’s a podcast that talks about what’s going on with gold, starting at about the 28 minute mark. I listened on Apple Podcasts but it is on all of them. YouTube link below.

Re: Casey Burgat on We Hold These "Truths"

Also, just now had CNN on while Trump was speaking live. But then they went to commentary while he was still speaking. Quickly scurried over to C-Span so I could hear it real and not via someone else's interpretation. No doubt that both CNN and MSNBC have their viewpoints. But nowhere as blatant or ...

Re: Jennifer Burns: Milton Friedman, Ayn Rand, Economics, Capitalism, Freedom | Lex Fridman Podcast #457

Another excellent Lex! Have listened to it once and will be listening to it again. I've listened to very little Lex Fridman because the podcast episodes tend to run 3+ hours, and I hate to invest that much time and be disappointed in the result. But I decided to give this episode a try based on you...

Bitcoin may die a fast death when the number-go-up technology narrative starts to falter. Number-go-up depends on demand-go-up, and the Bitcoin developers have decided that Bitcoin is not for everyone. "number-go-up technology" First time I'd even encountered that phrase so needed to do a...

How about Veracrypt. Anyone for Veracrypt? I love it. This is the first time I've ever seen the word. Looking at this ... nothing jumps out at me as to what it does and how to use it. Looks like it's set up for someone who already knows what they want it to do. https://www.veracrypt.fr/code/VeraCry...
