superfans of @harikondabolu may enjoy this 14-minute 2006 documentary http://seattlechannel.org/videos?videoid=x26617 on his comedy & work with @RepJayapal at @weareoneamerica
last night before the Kondabolu show I explained the blockchain & bitcoin to a guy who works at an art gallery, paraphrasing @scottros's https://www.wired.com/2015/01/how-bitcoins-blockchain-could-power-an-alternate-internet/ & using the lens of provenance

@jasonaowenStupid thing I did yesterday:
`find . -type f -exec sed -i '' -e 's/[[:space:]]*$//' \{\} \;`
...in the root of my git repo.It found and "fixed" all the trailing whitespace in all the object files in .git/.RIP my stashes and unpushed commits.

In which a major financial institution's website, despite that padlock icon, promotes poor security practices. https://twitter.com/jasonaowen/status/946876279613284352Jesucristo en bicicleta. If I had any money to invest, which I don't, I'd avoid conditions of service like this; to the old Marxist in me (which is 95% of me) it smells of SCAM.
