On this edition of Parallax Views w/ J.G. Michael, we dive into the world of climate science and denial with acclaimed author David Lipsky, discussing his latest book, The Parrot and the Igloo: Climate and the Science of Denial. Lipsky's narrative unravels the journey from the early days of climate awareness to the rise of misinformation and denialism that has shaped public perception and policy today. Lipsky explores the prophetic warnings of global warming, like the New York Times' 1956 prediction of parrots in the Antarctic, and the contrasting spectacle of Senator James Inhofe's 2010 igloo on the Washington Mall, mocking climate change with a sign reading, "Al Gore's New Home: Honk If You Love Climate Change." The discussion highlights the groundbreaking work of James Hansen, an academic at Columbia University who was an important voice warning the world about the dangers of climate change and serves as one of the real life heroes in Lipsky's book. We delve into Hansen's involvement in the Pioneer Venus project and how research into Venus's atmosphere helped scientists understand the catastrophic potential of a runaway greenhouse effect—a scenario he feared could threaten Earth's future, driving him to speak out for the sake of his grandchildren. We also delve into the role of big business in science denial, with a focus on the tobacco industry and the Phillip Morris Science Action Plan. Lipsky illustrates how tactics developed by the tobacco industry to spread doubt about the dangers of smoking were later adapted to promote climate denial. Companies used these methods to create uncertainty around the scientific consensus on global warming, employing PR strategies that aimed to manipulate public perception. Lipsky brings to light the financial interests and industries that fueled climate denial propaganda, referencing the controversial 2007 documentary The Great Global Warming Swindle. He introduces the concept of "The 25," the key figures in climate denialism, a term inspired by Steven Milloy's admission that there were only "25 of us" fighting against climate science. Lipsky traces how these denialists, some with backgrounds in defending tobacco, transitioned to spreading disinformation tied to the oil industry. The episode also touches on Lipsky's thought-provoking hypothesis about societal complicity in climate denial. While J.G. Michael suggests that powerful entities like the oil industry and groups such as the Moonies were actively pushing climate skepticism, Lipsky adds that society at large may have subconsciously wanted the denialists to be right because of our dependence on fossil fuels. He suggests that instead of taking collective action, we find it easier to blame oil companies and denialists, ignoring our own unwillingness to make lifestyle changes. This, however, is not to say that Lipsky let's oil companies and interest groups off the hook, but rather points at the way we, as a society, have failed to take action when it comes to the warming of our planet. We discuss the years of inaction on climate change by Republican administrations and the Democratic Party's missed opportunities, specifically during the presidency of Barack Obama. Despite organized climate denial losing ground in recent years, societal action on climate change remains insufficient. Figures like Bjorn Lomborg and Dr. Timothy Ball have faded into obscurity, yet Lipsky argues that our lack of decisive action indicates that we, as a society, might now be the ones in denial. Finally, we examine the influence of Republican pollster Frank Luntz, who reframed the conversation by popularizing the term "climate change" to make the issue seem less alarming and downplay the urgency of global warming. Join us for a conversation that covers the heroes and villains of climate science, the spread of disinformation, and how the American character has played a role in this tragicomic battle for the truth. Whether you're a climate advocate or curious about the history of climate skepticism, this episode offers a deep dive into one of the most critical issues of our time.

My oh my it's getting dramatic. Hope you caught the previous episode featuring Stigall's interview with RFK Jr. In this latest installment of As The White House Turns, a "stranger" runs up to George Stephanopoulos on the street and gets him to make a candid comment he's now regretting. Nancy Pelosi goes on TV this morning and makes a decided shift in message from some of her House colleagues on whether Biden is in or out. What's going on? Stigall has an idea or two.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Defence Minister Richard Marles say they are confident in Australia's relationship with the United States, and the AUKUS alliance, despite U-S officials advising against sending nuclear submarines to Australia. It comes as the U-S's Democratic Chair of the Senate Armed Services Committee, Senator Jack Reed, and Republican Senator, James Inhofe, wrote a letter to President Joe Biden, saying such a move could put their own fleet and national security at risk. - Прем'єр-міністр Ентоні Албанезе та міністр оборони Річард Марлз кажуть, що вони впевнені у відносинах Австралії зі Сполученими Штатами та альянсом AUKUS, незважаючи на те, що офіційні особи США радять не надсилати атомні підводні човни до Австралії. Це сталося в той момент, коли голова Комітету Сенату США з питань збройних сил від Демократичної партії, сенатор Джек Рід, і сенатор-республіканець Джеймс Інхоф написали листа президенту Джо Байдену, зазначивши, що такий крок може поставити під загрозу їхній власний флот і національну безпеку.

A runoff election will take place in Oklahoma Aug. 23, which will decide who the Republican candidate will be to run for the Senate seat held by James Inhofe since 1994. Thirteen candidates ran in the primary. But no one got 50 percent of the vote, hence the Aug. 23 runoff. Leading the field is Rep. Markwayne Mullin, who received the endorsement of former President Donald Trump and received 43.6 percent of the vote in the primary. Running second was T.W. Shannon, who got 17.5 percent of the vote, and who will face off with Mullin Aug. 23. A poll...Article Link

Insider trading, or the act of buying or selling investments based on nonpublic information, is against the law in the United States and in most countries. At its core, insider trading benefits well connected investors at the expense of the general public and it has been illegal in the US since 1934 – at least for corporate insiders.  I made a video a few months ago on the biggest insider trading scandals, and a lot you asked in the comments section “what about politicians”?The STOCK act was passed in the wake of some controversies over stock trades around the financial crisis of 2007-2008. Its purpose was to stop members of Congress from using non-public information derived from their official positions for personal benefit. In March of last year four U.S. senators (Kelly Loeffler, Dianna Feinstein, James Inhofe & Richard Burr) were accused of using insider information about the coronavirus pandemic to profit in the stock market.  They dumped their stock holdings, including investments in travel companies, while telling the public to remain calm there was nothing to worry about. All four senators denied wrongdoing, insisting that they acted on public information and news reports and not on non-public information that they had received at senators-only briefings. The Senate Ethics Committee and the department of justice, looked into the matter eventually dropping all investigations without finding any wrongdoing.Are things likely to change? Well, a bipartisan group of lawmakers have introduced a bill called the Ban Conflicted Trading Act banning members of Congress and senior staff from buying and selling stocks, most bonds and options contracts. This is intended to prevent lawmakers and high-level staffers from enriching themselves through trades based on potentially market-moving information.Should Politicians Trade?   What should be done about Congressional Insider Trading?Patrick's Books:Statistics For The Trading Floor:  https://amzn.to/3eerLA0Derivatives For The Trading Floor:  https://amzn.to/3cjsyPFCorporate Finance:  https://amzn.to/3fn3rvC Patreon Page: https://www.patreon.com/PatrickBoyleOnFinanceVisit our website: www.onfinance.orgFollow Patrick on Twitter Here: https://twitter.com/PatrickEBoylePatrick Boyle On Finance YouTube Channel Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/PatrickBoyleOnFinance)

MARC MORANO & THE GLOBAL WARMING SCAM, PAUL DIMATTINA ATTACKS DAN ANDREWS, USA POLITICS WITH KIRK CLYATTMarc Morano of CFACT talks to Mike Ryan about his new movie - Climate Hustle 2, further exposing the great scam surrounding Global Warming, a new Climate Monarchy and the dreaded Global Reset. Marc Morano, the award-winning producer, writer and host of Climate Hustle and Executive Producer of recently released Climate Hustle 2, is one of the highest profile voices of climate realism. He is the author of 2018 best-selling book, The Politically Incorrect Guide to Climate Change. Marc currently serves as Director of Communications for the Committee For A Constructive Tomorrow (CFACT) founded to promote an alternative voice on issues of environment and development.Marc, who has spent years researching climate change, environmental, and energy issues, held both White House and Capitol Hill Press credentials and was a member of the Society of Professional Journalists. During his tenure as senior advisor, speechwriter, and climate researcher for U.S. Senator James Inhofe (R-OK), he managed the communication operations of the GOP side of the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works.From 1992 to 1996, Marc served as a reporter for the nationally syndicated “Rush Limbaugh, the Television Show.” He next served as an investigative reporter for Cybercast News Service and as a reporter and producer for the nationally syndicated television newsmagazine “American Investigator.” In 2000, his investigative television documentary “Amazon Rainforest: Clear-Cutting the Myths” created an international firestorm. Marc is the publisher of the award-winning ClimateDepot.com, a global warming and eco-news center founded in 2009. Morano was named one of only five “criminals against humanity, against planet Earth itself” in 2009 by the eco-magazine Grist. (The other five criminals were Bjorn Lomborg, Richard Lindzen, Sen. James Inhofe and former President George W. Bush.) Newsweek declared Morano “is quickly becoming King of the skeptics!” in December 2009. Newsweek called Climate Depot the “most popular denial site.” Tina Brown's Daily Beast also recognized Morano as one of the “The Right's Top 25 Journalists” who serves as a “bombastic foe of the Greens.” The Daily Beast described Climate Depot as “a bustling, one-stop-shop for climate skeptics.”Also, on the show, we preview an interview with Paul Dimattina, prominent Melbourne restauranteur, and strong critic of Premier Dan Andrew's Covid-19 shutdowns which shattered Melbourne's hospitality industry. Paul’s extended interview will air on Weekend Edition of THE NARRATIVE on ASIA PACIFIC TODAY.And Veteran Broadcaster and resident of the Silver State, Kirk Clyatt gives his take on the unfinished business of the 2020 Presidential Election and Joe Biden's likely stance on China and other matters.

Alex Herrgott leads an independent federal entity whose sole focus is cutting millions of dollars in unnecessary project costs that environmental groups add, while slashing red tape and preventing anti-development activists from using the court system to prevent much needed economic recovery through acceleration of investment in our national infrastructure which provides immediate and lasting economic benefits for states, local communities and small businesses. Alex joined us to explain how the Permitting Council cuts through the bureaucracy and serves as a one-stop Federal shop to provide coordination across the Federal government for America's largest, most complex infrastructure projects. Alex Herrgott was appointed by the President as the Executive Director of the Federal Permitting Improvement Steering Council on September 21st, 2018. Mr. Herrgott had been serving as the Associate Director for Infrastructure for the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) at the White House previously. Prior to his service with CEQ, Mr. Herrgott worked for Senator James Inhofe of Oklahoma as Senior Staff from 2004-2011 at the Environment and Public Works Committee.

This episode we dive further into the Coronavirus, talking about Economic Impact, Mandatory Vaccines and the many ways we should be caring for ourselves & others.

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Friday! The news never ends, but David Waldman does need to devote his weekends to clearing out the bats, deer and racoons coming down from the KITM hinterlands, and of course Donald Trump requires a little time to come down from whatever he’s on. (I admit that’s wild speculation on my part... I don’t know for a fact that Trump ever comes down from whatever he’s on.) Last night Trump had another Deplorable Rally, in which Donald was extra deplorable. Room temperature Mike Pence warmed up the crowd, by bragging that the justification for the Soleimani hit, and subsequent deaths of 176 civilians, was all a lie. The Trump crowd never minds any lies at their expense, as long as someone else is being lied to, also. Moscow Mitch McConnell doesn’t mind changing the rules of the Senate. That’s what the rules are for, him. Mitch told Republican Senators he plans to be bitchy and petulant next week if Nancy Pelosi lets him down. (Don’t let it be said Nancy doesn’t have a heart.) Lickspittle Lindsey Graham demands Nancy cut a few days off that.  Just in case Mitch deigns to follow a rule, what would the rules of Senate procedure and practice be for impeachment trials? Matt Gaetz steps out of line, for a second. Mike Lee is already back to the fold. The Trump Administration uses redactions to hide what they don’t want you to see. Why, is there something wrong with that? James Inhofe understands the strategic importance of attacking cultural sites, as does the Commander in Chief.  The Senate trial is coming sooner or later, so here’s your weekend primer Twitter threads on a few of the dumpster fires leading up to this moment.

Lindsey Graham is on the Sunday News Shows; Hillary Clinton suddenly reappears. Senator James Inhofe names the country's biggest climate hypocrite.

In episode 97 of America Adapts, which is a re-release of Episode 47, Doug talks with noted climate change skeptic, Marc Morano of Climate Depot.  Doug and Marc discuss his motivation to be a contrarian voice on climate change and his history working on environmental issues, from being a reporter for Rush Limbaugh, to being chief spokesman for noted climate skeptic Senator James Inhofe of Oklahoma. We also talk about the current state of climate affairs.  In the second part of the episode, Dr. Randy Olson joins Doug to deconstruct the conversation with Marc and to see what the climate change community can learn from Marc’s tactics and motivations. In light of recent major setbacks, e.g., pulling out of the Paris Agreement, Randy analyzes Marc’s approach and offers a way forward to the climate community. Doug includes an updated wrap up, sharing his thoughts on climate change communication. Donate to America Adapts Listen to America Adapts on your favorite app here! In this Episode: AMAZONIAN ROOTS OF SKEPTICISM – Marc shares the roots of his climate skepticism and how his early work led him to the positions he now takes. SHOW ME THE MONEY? -  Marc and Doug discuss money involved on both sides of this issue. Marc discusses how he is not motivated by money but by his own certainty around climate change science. MIDDLE FINGER CLIMATE POLICIES – Marc discusses his admiration for President Trump for thumbing his nose at the establishment and pulling out of the Paris Agreement. Marc also explains how Trump could have handled the pullout more effectively. Part 2:  Randy Olson Deconstructs INTERVIEW ANALYSIS – Randy discusses Marc’s interview and explains what motivates Marc in his climate skepticism. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS – Randy provides some tough love on what the climate community can do next to effectively counter people like Marc Morano. It’s blunt but useful advice. Interviewed in this episode: Marc Morano Randy Olson *This was an unusual episode, with many references to scientific studies. Fact checking the conversation would have made it impossible to have a useful conversation, but I wanted to include a few resources related to some of the discussions in the podcast. Marc Morano on multiple occasions mentioned the study where there is 97% consensus that climate change is happening and he implied this included people studying areas impacted by climate change (he mentioned a hypothetical scientist studying butterflies) and the implication is that this person would be included in this 97% number. There are multiple studies looking at consensus on this issue, and that’s probably what he’s referring to, but there was a study looking at what publishing climate scientists are saying, and that’s where the 97% number was reached. I thought it was important to clarify that information.

Delta aids downed SR22, Cessna 182s seem nose heavy but aren’t. Here’s why + how-to tips for landings that won’t crunch the nose gear. 182s and Bonanza hit by expensive service bulletin. Click here to send a Listener Question you'd like answered on the show. If you're thinking of buying a new or late model Cirrus SR20 or SR22, please contact me as early in your decision making process as possible, so that I can provide you the most assistance. Landing Technique in the Cessna 182 The Cessna 182 is an excellent aircraft, but it has one knock against it that’s undeserved. Many pilots say the Cessna 182 is “nose heavy,” making it difficult to land. I respectfully disagree. The Cessna 182 is not difficult to land, IF you know how to land it properly and remain proficient through practice. And while calling it “nose heavy,” seems to match what pilots experience when landing the aircraft, an aeronautical engineer would blanch at that description. The C182 balances at its center of gravity like any other aircraft; the front end is NOT heavier than the back end. It is true that nose wheel damage and bent firewalls are common for 182s that have spent their lives as rental aircraft. So yes, it’s easier to make a bad landing in a 182 than in a 172. And those bad landings often involve the nose wheel hitting the runway before the main wheels touch down. If you want to know three simple steps for better C182 landings, skip to the end of this article. If you want to know why those steps work so well, listen to this episode! General Aviation News Two people on board a plane that crashed into the side of a mountain at Olympic National Park in Washington state on Sunday evening have survived after making a distress call picked up by a nearby Delta Air Lines flight. A new Service Bulletin from Continental Motors is going to cost some Cessna 182 and Beech Bonanza owners may have to shell out big bucks in the next hundred hours because of an engine service bulletin. The Red Bull Air Race World Championship makes a welcome return to San Diego on the 15-16 April 2017. Diamond Aircraft launched three new diesel-powered singles at Aero Friedrichshafen. They are the four-place DA50-IV, five-place DA50-V and seven-place DA50-VII with 230-, 260- and 360-horsepower Safran/SMA diesels. The -VII will also be available with a 375-horsepower Lycoming gas engine or a Ukranian turboprop. The DA-50-V was on display at the show and is shown below; click for full size images.

Photo by Ute Stumpf[/caption] Airbus has abandoned its plan to produce the electric E-Fan two-seater as a ready-for-sale training aircraft. Instead they will build a 2 mega watts demonstrator that will be a prototype for an electric powered airliner. Electric-powered aircraft will gather for a fly-in at the Grenchen airport in Switzerland, Sept. 9-10, the first event of its kind in Europe. Walter Extra has further cemented his status as a legendary figure in aviation, setting a new world electric airplane speed record in March to go with the electric time-to-climb mark he set in November. The STC Group has received an STC for the installation kit for the non-TSO’d Trio Pro Pilot digital autopilot into dozens of models of Cessna 172s and 182s, with more to follow soon. Avidyne expects to have a wireless hotspot of some kind certified by 2018. Owners of U.S.-registered, fixed-wing, single-engine piston aircraft that are not currently equipped with Version 2 of ADS-B Out are eligible for a $500 rebate Rebates are still available and they are being issued on a first-come, first-served basis until 20,000 are claimed or until the end of the one-year program, whichever comes first. Eligible aircraft owners can reserve a rebate until Sept. 18, 2017, the program’s last day to accept reservations, if any are still available. Flight Design has announced a new LSA model, the KLA-100, a two-seat training aircraft. A new company announced plans to build a Finnish LSA amphib in Maine. The Atol Avion will be built at Brunswick Landing, the former NAS Brunswick. Mark and Conrad Huffstutler are the new owners of the Lancair. They plan to support the models from the 320 on up, and will eventually be putting effort into the new Mako – a four seat, fixed-main-gear aircraft with a retracting nose gear. Lancair Owners & Builders Association is having a gathering in Sante Fe, NM, August 31-September 3. U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-Wisconsin) and Sen. James Inhofe sent a letter requests the FAA include funding to provide air traffic and safety services at major aviation events, like EAA AirVenture, in its budget for the next year.

Lanhee Chen of Stanford Law and the Hoover Institution joins Hugh Hewitt on Radio Row at the GOP Convention to discuss the Pence pick and the dangers of electing Hillary. Sheriff David Clarke rocked the convention when he declared “blue lives matter!” He appears on the Mike Gallagher Show. Hewitt interviewed Sheriff Clarke's governor, Scott Walker. A Hillary presidency would destroy SCOTUS with leftwing judges. Hewitt speaks about that possibility with Senator James Inhofe and A.G. Scott Pruitt of Oklahoma. The coup d'etat in Turkey failed. Who was behind the coup and what does this mean for Turkey going forward? Dennis Prager talks about it with the City Journal's Claire Berlinski who lived in Turkey for 10 years.

This is James Inhofe. He's a senator in the state of Oklahoma: "God's still up there, the arrogance of people to think that we, human beings, would be able to change what He is doing in the climate is to me outrageous". The problem is he's been the Chair of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works. This is the committee that has oversight on environmenal matters in the US. And this is Pope Francis last week on climate change: "decisive action, here and now".Denial 101x is an on-line open access course run by environment researcher John Cook from the University of Queensland,  and he speaks to Dirt Radio this week about the course and why he decided to put it together.Then we head to western Victoria to talk with a spokesperson from the Otway Conservation Association about why burning native forest is not a renewable energy source and should not be included in the RET.

Jeff Sharlet is a contributing editor for Harper's and Rolling Stone, and a visiting research scholar at New York University's Center for Religion and Media, where he has taught journalism and religious studies. He is the coauther, with Peter Manseau, of Killing the Buddha, and editor of TheRevealer.org. His latest book, a New York Times bestseller, is The Family: The Secret Fundamentalism at the Heart of American Power. In this in-depth interview with D.J. Grothe, Jeff Sharlet explains why secularists should not assume that just because there is a Democrat in the White House it follows that the religious fundamentalists' power has waned. He talks about how a secretive Christian political organization called The Family is founded in a doctrine of "Biblical Capitalism" and the "totalitarianism of Christ" that draws no distinction between religion, economics and politics and he recounts its origins in a supposed revelation from God that attacked organized labor and stated that Christianity has historically been overly focused on the poor, the weak and the suffering. He draws distinctions between the "pulpit pounders and the Bible thumpers" and "the fundamentalist elite," which is exemplified by The Family, which is comprised almost entirely of well-educated, affluent political and business leaders. He describes how The Family organizes Congressman into "private prayer cells," and runs the C Street House, which was made famous through the political sex scandals of Senator John Ensign and Governor Mark Sanford. He contrasts organizations like the Heritage Foundation and Christian leaders such as James Dobson and Pat Robertson with The Family, arguing that at least they are open with their agenda, as opposed to the Family, which unapologetically encourages secrecy by working to be "an invisible organization." He describes how The Family's relationship with the powerful is different than groups like Focus on the Family, and explains how their lack of rigid partisan or religious orthodoxy allows them to be more effective. He argues that The Family literally works to subvert democracy, and how the organization celebrates Hitler, Mao and Stalin as being among the few men the 20th Century who actually "understood the New Testament." He reports that The Family acts consistently as an intermediary between US Politicians and military leaders and businessman on the one hand, and overseas dictators such as the Somali dictator Siyad Barre, Ugandan dictator Museveni, and Indonesia dictator Suharto on the other hand, often with disastrous consequences. He details the history and importance of the National Prayer Breakfast to The Family's agenda. He describes ways that writing his expose has resulted in a backlash against him. He lists ways that secularists and progressives can work to reduce the influence of The Family in government. And he reveals a number of elected officials in high office who have ties to The Family, including Republican United States Senators Chuck Grassley, John Ensign, Jim DeMint, James Inhofe, Sam Brownback, and Lindsey Graham; Democratic United States Senator Mark Pryor; South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford, Former United States Attorneys General John Ashcroft and Ed Meese; and Democratic Congressmen Mike McIntyre and Bart Stupak, among others.

Welcome to another edition of Crypto Basic News! Our editor is SO busy in quarantine that he forgot to post this episode so you're getting it with a few days of delay. We still love him though. He may or may not be the one writing this description. Anyway, today we're talking about shady senators dumping stocks after a private coronavirus briefing, Steemit developers forking into a new platform called Hive due to Justin Sun's shenanigans, and much more. Oh, and coronavirus. Surprise surprise. Tune in now!Rapid FireGlobal cryptocurrency wallet usage has tripled in the last three years.10 mill in 2016 to 40mil end of 2019.Devs Plot Launch of Telegram’s Blockchain Without Company’s InvolvementSo says the TON Community Foundation, a group of more than two dozen software developers and investors, who are now discussing possible ways to launch the Telegram Open Network (TON) without the messaging platform's participation.Coinbase Wallet integrates DeFi directly into app. Users will be able to borrow and lend crypto with interest thru the app now.Which US cities own the most crypto? Let's hear your guesses.Congress Bill Looks to create a digital dollar (B?)ANNNNND ITS GONEhttps://www.coindesk.com/digital-dollar-stripped-from-latest-us-coronavirus-relief-billFed Pledges asset purchases with no limits, Bitcoin and Gold Spike - KFederal Reserve said Monday it will launch a barrage of programs to help stimulate the economyUnlike previous crisis where there was a commitment to a set amount of balance sheet expansion, this time they are indicating no limitsThe Fed also will be moving for the first time into corporate bondsAlso a lending program for Main Street businesses ($300 Billion) to support flow of credit“The central bank is shifting from being not just the lender of last resort, but now it is the buyer of last resort. Don’t ask how much they will buy, this is truly QE infinity.”-Chris Rupkey, chief finacial economist at MUFG Union Bankwill lower the interest rate on its repo operations to 0% from 0.1%. (The operations are conducted daily to provide banks short-term funding)All this backed by Treasury department so Fed doesnt lose moneybitcoin jumped from $5,860 to $6,628 in an hour, Gold went from from $1,494 to $1,524 over the same time frame.Four US Senators caught dumping stocks after a private briefing on Corona Virus - BThere was a Senate Intelligence Committee briefing on the Corona Virus, and right after that meeting there were 4 Senators that immediately started to sell off positions.The names of the senators: Richard Burr, Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif. , Kelly Loeffler, R-Ga. , James Inhofe, R-OklaRichard Burr even had a meeting with some fellow rich people (membership to join this group that he had the meeting with is $500, up to $10k) and said this "There's one thing that I can tell you about this: It is much more aggressive in its transmission than anything that we have seen in recent history," he said, according to a secret recording of the remarks obtained by NPR. "It is probably more akin to the 1918 pandemic."Burr's private comments were dire, his public comments made it sound like this was under control.So I saw a mention of one of the Senators being married to the Chairman of the NYSE. I was trying to remember where I heard that before. Kelly Loeffler! Holy shit she was the CEO that was in charge of BAKKT.Then, Karim remember this bitch wasn't even elected.Coronavirus crisis may highlight the overlap between the surveillance state and the cryptocurrency industry. - KIsraeli tech company NSO Group is working on new product to monitor spread of Corona, with nearly a dozen companies testing the productNSO, is best known for selling spyware to Saudi Arabia and other governmentsNSO Group’s surveillance technology has attracted widespread criticism for covertly accessing phones, activating cameras and collecting location data.NSO Groups to pranks seem to have significant ties to the crypto industryco-founders Omri Lavie and Shalev Hulio have invested in the bitcoin startup SimplexEddy Shalev (investor) has invested in the non-custodial wallet startup Portis, the exchange platform eToro and the privacy startup QEDIT.Coinbase famously sparked industrywide backlash in 2019it acquired Neutrino, founded by three former members of a controversial Italian surveillance vendor called Hacking Team.Coinbase said those people would transition out of the company, but no update and they refused to comment when asked.So just a reminder that cryptocurrency is just a tech, a tool, not innately a tool of liberation/freedom/etc, could be the opposite too, a tool of surveillance, or controlUpdate on some Justin Sun / Steemit Drama - BSo we talked about Justin trying to take over the Steem blockchain a few weeks ago. It looks like he was actually completely successful.Steemit developers quit because of the takeover.Justin has been hiding any posts on Steem critical of the new Steem ownership, and downvoting them as, well.The Steem community essentially capitulated, and forked into a new platform called Hive.Hive is going to be airdropped at 1:1 on Steem accounts.However, they bricked the Steemit Inc. coins to the tune of 60M, which is what Justin was able to get control of.They are proposing that anyone that switches to Hive and moves their coins loses their stake on Steemit lolol.Which is of course what Hive is doing.From Crypto Mining to Coronavirus Research - KCoreWeave is the largest U.S. miner on the Ethereum blockchain,redirecting the processing power of 6,000 specialized computer chips toward research to find a therapy for the coronavirus.GPUs will be pointed toward Stanford University's Folding@home program.Long standing, use donated processing power to simulate protein folds to try to cure different disieasesRecently announced specific project to boost coronavirus research"Their protein simulations attempt to find potential 'pockets' where existing [U.S. federal agency Food and Drug Administration (FDA)] approved drugs or other known compounds could help inhibit or treat the virus,"This addition has essentially double the power of the entire network, GPUs designed to handle repetitive calculationsAccording to Venturo, those 6,000 GPUs made up about 0.2 percent of Ethereum's total hashrate, earning roughly 28 ETH per day, worth about $3,600 at press time.Tulip.tools founder Johann Tanzer put out a call to action to Tezos bakers (miners) and offered a modest 15 XTZ ($20ish) to the leading contributor to Folding@home20 groups of Tezos miners are now contributing a slice of their hashing power to the cause. (and the pot grew to $600ish with other people donating as well)GPUs are flexible, but ASICs really cant participate. More powerful than GPUs, but only at one thing (so we probably wont see a lot of btc mining groups helping)FOLDING@HOME UPDATE ON SARS-COV-2Shots Fired!Wikipedia and Cardano having some issuesCharles Hoskinson, CEO of Cardano, is the latest figure in crypto to assert that Wikipedia is censoring his platform. He made a nearly 10 min video regarding the situation. Accusing Wikipedia to be a community-run free encyclopedia, hostile towards crypto.David Gerard, a crypto-hater and Wikipedia editor, says that Cardano is self promoting, and needs to be covered by the mainstream media, not the crypto press.Hoskinson said coins like Spankchain can have an article on Wikipedia. Spankchain does not have a Wikipedia page.Some Cardano members tried to include a blurb on Ourobouros, the algorithm that powers Cardano.Please join the conversation in the Discord.
