Sorry man but Charles Ponzi didn't actually invest USD into anything he just paid off earlier lenders with interest and loaned more money from new lenders so that he can pay off earlier lenders and did that repetitively. BTC has intrinsic value just like USD does, it is an investment if the value changes. I didn't see that you know who Ponzi was and what and how he did it.

hah, I also thought it was a clickbait article like all others, but for the reason on the other side of the extreme. This writer was a sceptic, actually I don't mind him not believing it as much as I minded using this guy to tell everyone else's opinion, such as your own, including his own indirectly, instead of just telling me what was so funny that the snake was laughing and what did she say. So that I can decide for my self, or I don't even have to decide, it the theme of the article is his growing up with the animals and talking, the subject isn't the ex president of spain, the other people, their opinions, because he really didn't live with the people, so therefore they're irrelevant, they're relevant to this story as much as Australians are relevant, because he didn't live with them either. Scope, scope.

As a muslim I have to believe, and belief is knowledge, therefore I know animals speak and some humans are given ability to speak their language, below is a citing from the Quran where it says animals speak, this only works if you belive that God has said it, it's not a proof to you who disregard it that a human wrote it and who reagard other humanly text's on the subject to be true. anyway .....

And Solomon inherited David. He said, "O people, we have been taught the language of birds, and we have been given from all things. Indeed, this is evident bounty." And gathered for Solomon were his soldiers of the jinn and men and birds, and they were [marching] in rows. Until, when they came upon the valley of the ants, an ant said, "O ants, enter your dwellings that you not be crushed by Solomon and his soldiers while they perceive not." So [Solomon] smiled, amused at her speech, and said, "My Lord, enable me to be grateful for Your favor which You have bestowed upon me and upon my parents and to do righteousness of which You approve. And admit me by Your mercy into [the ranks of] Your righteous servants." nd he took attendance of the birds and said, "Why do I not see the hoopoe - or is he among the absent? I will surely punish him with a severe punishment or slaughter him unless he brings me clear authorization." But the hoopoe stayed not long and said, "I have encompassed [in knowledge] that which you have not encompassed, and I have come to you from Sheba with certain news. Indeed, I found [there] a woman ruling them, and she has been given of all things, and she has a great throne. I found her and her people prostrating to the sun instead of Allah, and Satan has made their deeds pleasing to them and averted them from [His] way, so they are not guided, [And] so they do not prostrate to Allah, who brings forth what is hidden within the heavens and the earth and knows what you conceal and what you declare - Allah - there is no deity except Him, Lord of the Great Throne."

So here is the prophet of God Suleyman whom God taught to understand animals. Yes animals speak. Once a dog told me there's electricity in the wire i was about to test by barking and I knew what he meant beacause i was thinking of the task, because that was the tast at hand, and so i decided to go up there and double check ,and yes i had switched the live wire and the zero wire and was putting a switch on the negative and that didn't turn it off, so he barked, and i listened, how did i know that's what he meant, because i knew. anyway i came back looked at him he didn't bark, and the switch was turned off cutting of the electricity and i didn't burn my fingers. no the dog didn't speak bosnian, that is such a human thing to say. Scientists say ants have ears and other oragans in place for talking and listening but they are deaf and don't talk they talk through chemicals, sure, when i clap my hands all of the little ants run away, and those who were sleeping wake up and go, well some don't care much for it , they're lazy waking up, they probably think fuck you im sleepy kill me, i don't kill them i like them, i try not to kill them they are creatures of Allah, like all other creatures. Going back to the message, the Ant recognizes who Suleyman is, refers to him by name, and therefore saves her people, i mean saves her ants from being stomped on by horses and humans and Suleyman laughs at her words, not laugh like a mean laugh, but a honest one. Later on the bird is clearly in the service of the prophet of God who was also a king, and the bird went and came back and told the prophet there's a queen who and her people pray to the sun instead of God. the bird know's Allah, the bird clearly knew the prophet of Allah , the bird knows Satan, and the bird knows sun, surely the bird knows its a bird. people are retarded, i don't mean jurnalists here, here i mean scientists, most of them. I've seen a deer mom on the side of the road staring at her dead run over by car child, waiting there for a little bit seeing if it will get up or die. It was a sad scene, as i drove by. She knows the concept of death, all animals do, I mean surely she didn't think oh wow what is happening my child got teleported to a different universe, whaaat one second he was there then he wasn't no. She knows sadness, hapyness, her child was killed. This guy in the article said animals don't lie when they speak, but some animals do know how to trick, there's a bird from David Attenborough show called life of birds, she get's impregrated by a male bird then the second male bird comes and waits for her to eject the seed from the first bird then he has sex with ther and impregnates her and he knows the child is his, so this way the female gets two fathers to provide for the child now, and herself, living a lazy life of wealth, and the first male bird also knows it's his child because he didn't see the second dude fucking his wife. This bird knows honesty and it knows trickery, and the difference. birds know God , some don't just like some humans don't, birds know life and death, they know hunger, they know all these concepts, there is no life without communication , they speak. The fact that we don't understand them does't mean they don't. People are stupid. I don't know why humans imagine this emptiness inside animals when they know ants can count, when they send a specific number of ants to get the crumbs, like what tha fuck do they think they do, lick seven ants with chemichals and then they go, but even if they do that withoug speaking, they still know how to count. I mean animals collect wealth, bees collect polen and honey, ants collect food they grow mycelium. When we humans walk the earth speaks to God, may I swollow them, God answers no. Because the earth sees how we are and what we do, and this is beyond our comprehensions, only thing is that i believe it and some of you might not.

A Dog saved my life, he barked, and I knew I had misplaced the live wire and the zero wire when installing a breaker, which I was about to test by getting close to the wire and then the Dog barked, I looked at him, and he reasured me. Then I went up there at the beginning of the wires where i plugged it in and voila, I did have them swapped. The dog knew, and I knew what he meant, he could have merely said ummm, in human language, and that would have mean't something. I came back and he didn't say atythinkg, i tested the wire and I didn't burn my firngers or got electricuted. Now you standing next to us not knowing anything about electricity, which the dog might have had, you would say i'm lying, just like you will say now. there are no proofs in life, just a belief.

You can't even have evidence that I understand bosnian language when someone else speaks it, maybe it's just barking.

also, f her, f NY times, this whole time I thought Cris was a dude named Chris. Calling her wife like it ain't no thing is really getting old now, and throwing in those Jewish words like she asking from them too. Yep, she's a sellout, she sold her soul long ago, now she's selling her time, but you be careful with that Dante dude too, many people sold them selves for fame and recognition.

because it's a given that without the effort of practice you will not come to understand the unknown thing to you as you will not seek to understand it, effort must be put first then the understanding comes after one two three many repetitions, this article is just explaining a more finite path of reaching that knowledge by turning off outside distractions and deep concentration, by concentration i mean centering the attention to the subject in question. If you are a fighting a battle with a katana, the first time you hold it would probably be just like any stick in your hand, then with practice you would come to understand many subtleties that improve on perfecting it, like that you hold it with two smallest fingers on hand, how to put your torso, how to set your eyes, and other things i don't remember from the Book of Rings by Mysashi Miyamoto. When it comes to intellect, mathematics or so, you still just keep at it and it comes. But as someone here explained that frustrating helped him to understand the formula he tried to understand, it helped him focus, because of him now I understand a quote by i think Al-ghazali "there is no gaining knowledge without discomfort" , and the article helped also, meaning mindless efortless comfortable repetitive tasks just keep you at the same level. So pretty much this article is like a teacher, and the guy who wrote it is also like a teacher and it helps, but you must not instinctively just argue the opposites but rather try to understand it. Now how do human beings come to understanding of new things, meaning how do we gain knowledge, of course you will not find this in this article as this is beyond our limits of intellect, but you may seek to try to understand, for instance how is it that humans recognize the letter A, and i don't mean the shape, i mean the contrast between the brightness, and the limit of the edges where the day and night meet, black and white in this case, and this edge goes around the letter and the shape of it and we understand it as a letter A. All I know that knowledge comes from Allah, One source, He teaches humans the language, the writing, now as for how that happens I don't think we're capable of knowing as we don't even know how is it we learn to recognize symbols, I mean the workings of the mind, sure we can take a brain scan and learn about neurons and as the article mentions repetitive tasks become almost imprinted and easy to do, like driving, but we don't get better at driving we just drive the rest of our lives the way we drive, most of the times, because we don't focus on learning to drive, we just focus on driving to work and smoking a cigarette or eating a burger. Now driving a car would be like learning a mathematical formula and knowing to implement it without actually understanding what it does, while you still can pass the test and not understand the workings of it, so yes surely practicing singing and sword fighting is different as practicing something intellectual which you have to understand, but even with many intellectual things we just have to learn how to implement it and not actually what it does, we know a high level process and not the processes below it. .... so like what article was talking about is that there is no natural talent, and word naturae meaning in-born, or by-birth, aka genetic, while there are those that are born with say eye sight and others are blind, but regardless, if you're born with a slightly better working brain you still have to put the effort, that deep concentration to understand the new thing and if that new thing is say part of a bigger thing, learning a new formula you become better at math, learning a new stance you get better at holding a sword.... so it is the same thing, to be good at something and to learn a new thing, because you had to learn it first to become good at it, and possibly udnerstand it also, only now we take it for granted as we are at this level, that's why the article doesn't differentiate that, learning two different things is still learning and learning to understand two totally different concepts, in the end it's one same process in our mind, learning a new thing regardless if one is playing soccer and the other physics. So being good at something is actually knowing understanding and learning more and new things about it, only linguistically your mind might play a trick and make you believe this is somehow different. Now if you want to pursuit and seek knowledge of how humans acquire knowledge, how do they learn, and how do we learn how to walk,and how is it possible for us to retain information, hacker news will not teach you these things you must seek this elswhere, key word being seek, just like in the article is 'work' or they call it deep work, both the key word is action. You know that sensation when learning something new and it finally just comes in your head and you now understand it, it's nice isn't it, well learning it might be more important that knowing how it actually happened, although it wouldn't be bad to know how, only today you might do a google search 'how humans recognize symbols' or something, and you will see that we know as much about the subject as we know about how monkeys do the same thing.

Entairtainment content is much worse then commercials. If PowerRangers are stupid for you, to me all movies and shows are as stupid as PowerRangers, as all of them use fake character building to touch someone's heart (mom got cancer, dad left, girlfriend cheating) they include 'all of the above' to touch as much of the audience as possible, only small part are passive and cold to the lure reach, most are lured in and hooked and are now users of the entairtainment industry. Facebook (friend news) and real news are no beter then this, not even sports are better then this nowdays, before sports were about sport now they use the same techniques as fiction novels and movies do, they build character, they show life of Shaqile Oneal what he does when he doesn't play for instance charity donations, community reach etc, they make stars out of players and everyone has their favorite, muslims like Ronaldo cuz he been to a mosque, jews like Messi cuz, well whatever u get the point, noone would watch South American volleyball or basketball team or Saudi Arabian football league because why, yes u guessed it, you don't know anyone there, there are no characters, only those people there know the players so they watch them. And what happens after the game, an hour of talk "player did this he did that, couach did this did that, should have done that and this and instead now we have this, he gets what he asked for, need a better coach" or whatever, then you listen to those people analyze the game to get you thinking, get your thoughts circling around the same thing, then you go to a bar with your friends order a beer and repeat the same thing those people on tv said, or you throw in your own opinion, cuz who needs those stupid analyzers on tv when you know better, Zlatan Ibrahimovic yey, no I really like that guy as a dude, I could care less about his abilities, I mean he's the new Chuck Norris, he hurt his knees went to a doctor and the doctors wanted to study him because of how good of a shape his knees were haha... anyway, cocky dude. But he's real, noone made him out like that, he made his own character. It's because we do in real life remember characters as we perceive them with values we recognize, because the ones we don't recognize we just havent learned yet, but the problem with fake characters is that they are fake, and people who watch more then 8 hours a day of tv shows or sports really get immersed into those characters that it's a disease, it's an addiction that hasn't been diagnosed yet, Tupac said he didn't promote Thug Life he diagnosed it, he really did. If average US citizen watches 8 hours a day of TV, that means that on the extreme ends of this line there's a dude who watches 0 hours of TV, I saw a guy comment here he don't watch TV, but then this also means that there's that dude who watches 16 horus a day, everything over 2hrs a day is a disease, if you don't know how to select what you watch, and I do mean if you don't watch 'Life of Birds' "Planet Earth" and other shows narrated by David Attenborough you are being dummbed down by occupying your mind with thoughts of the round ball, players, fake characters, made up stories that touch your heart and soul, you're an addict of a storyline and the only place you actually think is while taking a shit on the toilet because there is no TV there, but sometimes even there you bring your cell phone or a news paper and out of a 100% of the day you turn the thinking part of the brain on for 0% and now it's just repetitious things like, today they scored 75, tomorrow 65, tomorrow 32, fauls 32, etc, when you ask a person what you think about so and so, most will not actually 'think' but rather will just pull out an already thought-out thought they had prepared earlier when they were sitting on the toilet thinking, as when you watch tv you don't really think, you just emotionaly invest yourself and your memory to those characters, unless you can rise above this and tune it out , watching static on tv, or a turned off tv, or better yet wathing a blank wall of your house is much healthier than watching tv if you do not choose what to watch, and i do mean documentaries about knowledge that is good and not knowledge how to rob a bank and brew coke, i mean either history biology sciences religion sociology etc etc, all other is a waiste of life and of time. It's really bad when people start to tell me about what they saw on TV, sports or Turkish series, and I'm like if I wanted to waste my time I'd watch it myself, you don't have to advertise it for me. So no, ads are not actually worse then the actual content, ads are just selling product, but also using the same techique, character building, where they have cute fuzzy little animals or hearts or baby faces on toilet paper, dude why is there a baby on my toilet paper plastic wrapper/bag/container, is it because the toilet paper is soft and babies cheeks are also soft, or is it because the paper is soft enough for a babies soft butt, idk, but this is just so it's cute and you buy it, i mean you can't really sell toilet paper with Hitler's face on it now can you. So no, propaganda is in the movies and the entairtainment, only you don't see it, all of these things are there put in place to take away your thinking time of the day where you could be thinking smart thoughts, as Einstein did in his 'thinking room', they lure you in to think about them, and to subscribe for 5.99 Nba APP, and even if you don't , yo might think they don't get nothing from me, yes they do, you go and tell your family about sports movies and then they buy it, your friends buy it, the whole world is hooked. As my grandmother used to say, 'you can't sit on two chairs with one ass' you can either study or go to bar, not both at the same time, but while you watch tv you're not reading about "light, frequency, electromagnetism, synesthesia, fungi" idk universe? there are many things we don't know and ahvent learned but we settle for some dudes rolling a circular round ball or throwing it and we sit there brain dead and stare at the idiot box and when someone says idiot box we say no tv doesn't make you stupider, no it just makes you a smart idiot who could be talking to his daughter but rather instead watches tv where there is a fake dad talking to his fake daughter and you cry inside, it's all a trick to separate you from family, and while you might think watching tv together is a form of communication, no communication happens while watching some other people do their thing while you don't do anything you just watch, all you do is watch and you don't do anything, people are zombies. Thats why i turned off facebook and I'm here now on Hacker news as there is smart educational content here and not just gossip, i have to stop writing now my blood pressure is climbing. Try to stay away from TV for a few days, you'll get the same reaction as trying to stay away from cigarettes, and mind you, nicotine exits the blood stream fairly quickly so on the third day all there is is the psychological addiction as the physical nicotine is long gone. habbits are very powerful and whats inertia, resistance to change. Change dude, dont watch TV don't let them make u a sucker, you're not a sucker are you, you are if you wanna be, don't be, read a book, not a fiction book, book of knowledge, here'a an author Al Ghazali, go see what he did. Iron is not a native element of Earth, it's formed in stars much hotter then our Sun, Sun is not hot enough to create the element, so it descended down to earth and now it's here, and we make useful things from it and there's hemoglobin too. Turn the TV off.

they're just trying what other ideas such as nations are already doing, it's called nationalism, well this is browseronism, they are asking us to love the browser, it's gonna be a little bit harder since we wasn't born in Mozillandia, that would help then you could tell people about their ancestors etc.
