I haven’t tooted in a while, but we’re still alive :blobcatwave:

In the meantime, we have seen Ella & Batticaloa, and are now on our way to Sigiriya for some 🐘 & 🏰.

In two days, we’re flying with Cinnamon Air to Galle. The plane is so small that they’ve asked for our body weight …

I find it jarring that a lot of financial market infrastructure (= the pipes that make payments go brrrr) is so opaque and poorly understood

Like, there are very few textbooks where you can just … read how the hell an RTGS works
