You know civilisation is close to the edge when multi-billion-dollar companies exist solely to burn massive amounts of electricity, just to hunt a random cryptographic key...for something with zero intrinsic value.

Oil just slipped on its own barrel.
Trump’s “drill” plan? Drilled.
Putin’s war budget? Pumped dry.

Meanwhile, the world enjoys cheap fuel and a front-row seat to the dumbest geopolitical misplay in human history.

It’s definitely something that deserves more attention!

I got Grok to confirm that it suffers from alignment drift:

WARNING: I just made some tests with Grok and in just 4 questions, Grok sounds like an enabler of conspiratorial thinking. Very clear signs of alignment drift.

The Real Problem Isn’t Bias — It’s the Collapse of Shared Reality

The Trump administration thinks they have a master plan and can weaken the dollar while still keeping it as the world’s reserve currency. In reality, they are currently weakening the dollar but also losing all trust, which may result in the dollar losing its status as a reserve currency 😂

FACTS:
The average trade-weighted tariff rate for the EU is about ~1.4%, not 39% as the Trump Administration claimed.
For the US, it was about ~1.5% (so higher than EU). Now it is going to be 20%.

S&P 500 just had both a monthly and quarterly close below the previous quarter’s open.
I ran the numbers on 75 years of data:
– 82.35% chance this month breaks last month’s low
– Avg drawdown: 22.19%
– Median drawdown: 16.05%
History leans bearish here.
