endofunctor
Is that anything like an endoscope? I have some experience being on the receiving end of those.
That’s the experience you get when buying NFTs.

a lotta yall still dont get it
ape holders can use multiple slurp juices on a single ape
so if you have 1 astro ape and 3 slurp juices you can create 3 new apes
Tonight's slurp juice mint event is essentially a minting event for both Lab Monkes and Special Forces
I think you dropped your endofunctor.

Even more painful than the human error, Di Michele said to CNET, was the fact that none of the network validators caught the mistake. Blockchains require "validators" to verify each transaction, encoded in "blocks", so that they can be added to the chain. This transcation had 125 validators, Di Michele explained, but not one checked. "This is a wake up call for validators," he said.
Ah, like code review.

"Blender.io is a virtual currency mixer that operates on the Bitcoin blockchain and indiscriminately facilitates illicit transactions by obfuscating their origin, destination, and counterparties. Blender receives a variety of transactions and mixes them together before transmitting them to their ultimate destinations," Treasury said.

And even when you're not getting scammed, it's still the most volatile "currency" outside of banana republics!

Developers know: dates are hard.
But also times are hard. And time zones. In one of the calculations, daylight saving time was observed, in the other calculation, it was forgotten.

Also:
What a surprise! Although with a top 10 coin crashing, hopefully this will have a big followup effect and bring some more with it.

@DogsB honest question: should I feel bad for having basically zero sympathy towards people supposedly losing their life savings and attempting suicide because they literally gambled their house on crypto shit?

Think of it as feeling bad when you see people dying of famine in the charity ads on TV at Christmas. You feel bad and sometimes you might throw a few bucks at them but you save your fucks to give for family and friends. Don't throw money at these people though.

Depends how fast I can accelerate a penny. With enough velocity it becomes interestingly relevant... provided my aim is good enough and they aren't wearing body armour.

If you accelerate it fast enough, body armor won't matter. It will matter what's on the other side of the body.

You should feel bad for having any doubt in your policy of not giving a shit.

Air becomes a problem at those "interesting" velocities. You're going to need to spin-stabilize the penny somehow.

Hopefully it also creates a stable enough cavity so that rotational stress is the largest threat to the physical integrity of the discus.
Cos' if that penny blows up mid-air, someone might get hurt, yknow?

You might see something weird happen when the current goes through pretty much only the copper cladding. Then again you might not. Either way, it's something worth doing. Because we definitely need more ways to make a penny worth more than a penny.
