Just a couple of hours ago when I was explaining to my friends [in a Telegram voice chat] the reason why the price of some cryptocurrencies soar when they're first offered in a DEX ( = decentralized exchange). TBH, I know a little about the subject and I need to read some papers to know the details. I don't want to do it again TBH.

I can't remember the last time I knowingly and earnestly fired my uninformed reckons out into the world, as if it's all equally valid. It could have happened more recently than I think, though. I haven't got a lot of faith in myself.

Now.

I have a friend who’s trying to lose weight by fasting - he has an app and everything! Last week he was saying he felt faint but he wasn’t going to eat anything because his 27 hour fast wasn’t up yet. I told him that he wasn’t doing himself any good. That fasting was a gimmick. That not eating for a whole day and then eating some out of date frozen peas and a family-sized tub of banana ice cream was ridiculous. And that I know a highly qualified person on the internet (you) who said it was stupid. He did listen and has stopped.

Hm, I guess quantum mechanics and whatnot, it started about Tracer from Overwatch and her ability to jump back in time 3 seconds or whatever, and then veered into Portal and whether you'd accelerate infinitely if you put portals immediately above and below you and 'fell' forever or if terminal velocity still applied, yes I am OK with being dumb and wrong and learning about this particular kind of thing forever

As a rule I don’t really talk about something unless I have the information needed. I don’t wanna insult anyone or look like an idiot.

Probably something Brexit related. I know very little from an American perspective as it doesn't affect me on a personal level.

We all know little of everything. And from the vast majority we know almost nothing. So we all talk daily about the unknown basically. When we do that intentionally it usually is for putting things we know and fear behind a foggy screen of dust.
