We should send billions of custom crypto tokens to the "Tax the billionaires" crowd. Then sell 0.001 for $10. They are all trillionaires on paper. Then report them to the IRS for tax evasion. Let's make @SenWarren and @BernieSanders paper trillionaires!

@RogerSeheult Here's a better solution! Use UTC and make everyone in each time zone decide what time works for them.

Time zones create a natural experiment. People living on the western side of a time zone experience sunset by the clock about an hour later than people just across the border in the neighboring time zone—even though they may live only a few miles apart. Giuntella and Mazzonna found that this later clock-time sunset was associated with about 19 minutes less sleep per night, along with higher rates of obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and breast cancer. The sun did not change. The clock did. That is exactly the direction permanent daylight saving time would push the entire country: later sunsets by the clock, darker mornings, less sleep, and greater circadian misalignment. This is not merely a preference for “more evening light.” It is a population-level health experiment—and we already have warning signs from the time-zone borders.

@mr_jay_pea Just stop being SOL centric. Why do numbers on a clock have to dictate when you do things? Lets go UTC and actually then THINK about what time we want to get up or go to school.

“Figuring it out” the last time we tried permanent DST meant this:

@senatejr Yeah be more disciplined! My Mortgage is only $1700 and I'll be done with it about my 45th birthday. That being said 2011 was a REALLY good year to buy.

Let's do the actual math nobody wants to show you. $85,000 salary. $54,000 after taxes depending on your state. $4,500/month take home. Rent: $1,900. Car: $520. Insurance: $180. Utilities: $160. phone: $85. Groceries: $380. Student loans: $340. You have $935 left. and then your boomer parents tells you to be more disciplined.

@TheVarietyGuy What about UTC and ignore sol's zenith for our clock numbers

Options, Ranked and Rated: 1. Permanent Daylight Savings Time - 10/10 2. Current system: Spring Forward / Fall Back - 6/10 3. Split the difference 30 minutes year-round, but be offset with most of the rest of the world - 5/10 4. Permanent Standard Time - 1/10

@RogerSeheult @piratecapt16 Your circadian rhythm doesn't care about the number either.

@piratecapt16 You’re circadian rhythm doesn’t care if you’re in the military.

Pitch black when you are awake is a bigger issue than a sun rising when you are inside sleeping with your eyes closed. You know we’re dealing with a special type of people when they can’t comprehend this.

@RogerSeheult STOP being SOL centric. Time is a number. It doesn't have to be the same on both sides of the zenith. Also its not the zenith that we are tracking currently. So just go UTC and set the schedules how YOU think they should be.

@so_i @PeterMallouk @grok is the above graph adjusted for local pricing or against the dollar only

@badguyty @PeterMallouk It is "adjusted for inflation and differences in living costs between countries."

One of the greatest achievements in human history: In 1990, 44% of the world lived in extreme poverty. Today, it’s down to 10%. The world is far from perfect, but this is what extraordinary progress looks like.

@RWAFoundation_ You still forgot #RVN the ORIGINAL asset platform! Layer 1 assets, Restricted assets, and soon Pay to asset hash. At this point its purposeful ignorance

Turns out our intern's camera roll is just... every RWA logo ever. 70 of them, to be exact. Part 1 of the collection in no particular order. Spot your project? Comment or QRT below. 🐘

@FiredUpCoug Solve it with UTC. Everyone on computer time. We don't need to be the center of the clock anymore.

How it starts: “I want an extra hour of afternoon sunlight in the winter, so I support permanent Daylight Saving Time.” Where it's headed: “We’ve heard your concerns about commuting in the dark, so beginning next week, we’re moving everyone’s start time back by one hour.”

@SoothingDave Go UTC and throw out conventional numbers. Actually think and decide that 1300 is the time you want your kids to be at school.

Can a permanent daylight time supporter explain what after-work outdoor activities I will enjoy with the extra hour in January when it’s 20 degrees outside?

@jeffreytucker I'm sorry UTC is the least bad option. It would make people be less self centered on time and actually think about what time things are happening instead of just going with some socially accepted standard.

I thought about writing about it at length but I think I'll just say it instead: Standard Time is the least bad option.

@SaveStandard NO NO NO. Use UTC and decide what time works for you and not based on some self centered number.

“Some”? Try 57 mornings with sunrise after 8am. Schoolchildren and working adults need sunlight every morning. Replace permanent Daylight Saving Time with permanent Standard Time.

@SaveStandard No UTC! Then we all have to THINK about what time we actually want things to happen. Not base it on sol's zenith

See our maps on the right for numbers of days with sunrise after 8am under each clock. Permanent DST’s late sunrises are not a “very short period”, they are months of misery!

@BrozWX it just shuts down the whole debate and actually makes people think based on their circumstances and not because works should start at 9.

@badguyty I actually like this idea. Unfortunate that it hasn’t caught on yet

Permanent DST people be like: Ah yes, 9am!

@StephenFleming Just go UTC and everyone adjust your schedules accordingly. So school hours are 8-3 now they become 13-20. Its just a number we should all be using the same numbers at the same time.

The people who are in favor of year-round Daylight Saving Time don’t actually want year-round DST. They just want more sunshine in the winter, period. Sorry, kids. Until we can adjust the axial tilt of the Earth, that’s not happening.

@FraterSpiritus I pick UTC

Anyone that picks Daylight Savings Time doesn’t give a single shit about children.

@tmallard @MartelMaccabeus so your day has to be 9 to 5 because someone is holding a gun to your head? You make no sense.

@badguyty @MartelMaccabeus Why, Bureaucrats run on lies with the guns to make you do it ?

This is what I consider to be the most ideal time zone map for the US, with each time zone remaining on Standard Time. The premise of this map is that it is based on when average solar noon occurs. Average solar noon looks at what time true solar noon occurs each day of the calendar year, and finds the average of those 365 times. At each line, average solar noon would occur at 12:30 local time on one side of the line, and 11:30 local time on the other side of the line. Exactly in the middle of any two lines, average solar noon would occur at 12:00.

Why do people insist that their day revolves around a specific set of numbers? Just because the sun is highest in the sky doesn't mean it HAS to be 12:00. Thats like telling someone working graveyards their work day starts a 8 am. Just because it is a relative point in the solar day doesn't mean it has to be the same/similar number everywhere at that time of day. You already do this but have the math done for you. UTC -5 = EST. Why can't we just use the same number system as computers? It changes nothing in HOW the sun operates just the numbers we track it with.

@badguyty @MartelMaccabeus Mammals evolved to this chart with sun zenith noon local time not UTC the issue What's your body do ?

@Owennfa I graduated in 2018. Took 12 years to get through college mostly medical reasons. I got out debt free. (Ok i did have a mortgage). I only made it because I was making a 6 figure income already.

BOOMER PARENT: Why are you taking out student loans? Just pay for college as you go. GEN Z: College costs $60,000 a year now. BOOMER PARENT: That's insane. Mine cost $3,000. GEN Z: Yeah. And you could work a summer job to pay for it. I'd need to work three jobs for a year. BOOMER PARENT: You're just going to expensive schools. Community college is cheap. GEN Z: Community college is $20,000 a year now. Still can't afford it without loans. BOOMER PARENT: Back in my day we just worked our way through. You kids are lazy. Meanwhile, college endowments just hit $500 billion while tuition doubled in the last ten years and zero additional value was added. Universities are posting record profits while students graduate with $100,000 in debt. That's not laziness. That's systemic theft.
