We’re making it easier for millions of businesses to accept bitcoin.
Starting today, eligible U.S. @Square sellers will begin having Bitcoin payments automatically enabled.
Sellers who accept bitcoin will receive USD as default.
This is how bitcoin as everyday money begins.

Austrians >>> Keynesians
Government spending != economic growth
JavierMileiDE_Kommentar@JavierMileiDE
Die Phasen der bisherigen Entwicklung Argentiniens seit Amtsübernahme durch Milei. Laut der keynesianischen "Experten" hätte das nie so kommen dürfen. Die Einsparung von fast 30% der Staatsausgaben in der Rezession und dazu noch das Tilgen von Staatsschulden anstatt Neuschuldenaufnahme hätte nach deren Modellen zwingend in eine lang anhaltende Abwärtsspirale führen müssen. Tatsächlich sehen wir aber fast schon lehrbuchartig eine Entwicklung, wie sie die Österreichische Schule der Volkswirtschaft in einem solchen Szenario nahelegt. Erstens schnelle, harte und kurze Rezession. Zweitens Rebound. Drittens Bereinigung der historischen, vor allem durch keynesianische Fehlanreize verursachten Fehlinvestitionen. Viertens nachhaltiger, weil nicht schuldenfinanzierter und möglichst frei von staatlichen Eingriffen erfolgender Aufschwung. Übrigens ist das auch nichts Neues. in den 50igern nannte man es Wirtschaftswunder. Da ist aber kein "Wunder". Jeder kann das. Singapur konnte das, Polen konnte das, Estland konnte das und jetzt eben Argentinien. Wirtschaftliche Freiheit wirkt. Der Staat ist nicht die Lösung sondern das Problem. Einziger Unterschied in Argentinien. Milei beruft sich ausdrücklich auf die Österreichische Schule. Das macht es schwerer das später in "soziale" Marktwirtschaft umzudichten (Erhard hat das nie gesagt), um den Staat wieder ins Spiel zu bringen, weil der Kapitalismus ja angeblich "gezügelt" werden muss. Dabei ist Kapitalismus dem Sozialismus nicht nur wirtschaftlich, sondern auch moralisch und ethisch überlegen. Wer das verstehen möchte, dem empfehle ich die Deutsche Übersetzung der Davoser Rede Mileis 2026. Gibt es bei misesde.org .

@GadSaad A perfect example of why free speech is so important. Let them expose themselves.

This is Canada. The nation has turned into a delusional feminized orgy of suicidal empathy and rejection of reason.

If MAID was offered at the NDP convention half of the weirdos would do it to prove a point.

Why are Canadians still travelling to the States? Because it’s a nice place with friendly people.
As a Canadian, my friends and I have been travelling to the U.S. with absolutely no issues.
Don’t listen to the fear mongers who haven’t even visited.
Canadians with no money are not travelling to the States because they need to pay for food.
Next trip to the U.S. booked!

BREAKING: Toronto approves city-run grocery stores
In a 21–3 vote, councillors backed Anthony Perruzza’s plan to launch 4 municipally run stores to offer cheaper food.
Big test for public retail.

@jeffreymanner I mean, I’m not sure I want some Waterloo student with Claude code to go in and just cause a ruckus but I think there’s a happy medium that doesn’t require 1,000,000,000+ dollars that’s for sure

Understand the current, so we can change the future.
We all track outcomes in our businesses, very smart to apply the same (rather low bar) to our government and public service.
Data + ai are going to be core to driving the change we need in this country.

@ybhrdwj When I have another 120 seconds of free time to invest in this - I'll replicate it exactly. I'm busy with other things right now. Waiting on your repo.

I love the retro airport terminal look, but didn't want to spend $3.5k on a vestaboard. I coded a fun tool that turns any tv into a vestaboard.

@thattallguy Disgusting waste, especially when $100 in Claude tokens could prob rebuild from scratch

@jeffreymanner Have you looked into how much we paid for a disastrous payroll system, and how much we're paying again to build a new one.

Announcement: Hiring for Opendoor Toronto
We are building a team for Opendoor in the great city of Toronto, Canada.
We’re hiring across operations, finance, engineering, design, data, etc. Hang with us next week to learn more: projects.opendoor.com/toronto-hiring/
Toronto is the single greatest source of raw, high talent people in the world across almost every discipline. Often people feel like they have to leave to do something special but a lot of the magic happens right here. On a life experience and risk-reward basis it’s underpriced whereas places like SF, NY etc are priced in.

@MOrcmisha They've peered into the woke abyss and its not pretty.

British voting patterns are weirdly the exact inverse of Canada. Canadian youth are trying to hammer the brakes on everything from wokism to immigration, while British youth are flooring the gas.

Bitcoin as the reserve asset and settlement layer, stablecoins as the unit of account and medium of exchange. Those two primitives are sufficient to construct most of what global finance actually needs. Lending markets, credit markets, yield instruments, structured products. The architecture simplifies when the foundation is sound.

10 billion dollars in tax wasted trying and failing to make software that generates a CSV file with 450k rows in it twice a month.

Canada spent $5.1 BILLION fixing a broken payroll system (Phoenix). Now we're about to spend $4.2 BILLION+ replacing it with Dayforce. I went through every lobbying record, every communication report, and every revolving-door hire to identify potential conflicts of interest. Here's what I found. 1/🧵
