Americans who are judgemental about the quality of Italian food in [random place] in Italy vs. [random neighborhood] in NYC is one of the funniest experiences I have in the USofA. A Decalogue to Americans who talk about Italian food: (1) Beauty is the eye of the beholder, i.e. you need to understand good food to judge good food, think about it (2) Netflix is the death of restaurants, if you are using Netflix-famous restaurants as your benchmark you are missing that those benchmarks were manufactured for you in the first place (3) Great Italian restaurants outside tourist cities don't take foreigners, gate-keeping them thru language like in Japan (4) Great Italian restaurants inside tourist cities don't like foreigners, gate-keeping them thru word of mouth reservations (5) Great Italian restaurants who like foreigners most probably also have a branch in NYC (6) Name dropping famous chefs is very cringe (7) If it has cream on it, it is typically not food (8) Truffle oil is not truffle, it is non-olive oil after a holiday in a Chinese container (9) Ingredients are everything, and good ingredients don't travel (10) No, it is not notorious in Italy that NYC has the best pizza in the world, in Italy people don't even know NYC has pizza Never trigger an Italian on food.

Crypto has historically allowed capital providers with an internet connection to meet yield sources. Often, those builders have no fiat alternative for capital accumulation. This constraint forces them to innovate from day 0. @m0 was born to power those rails.

There has been a lot of attack vs. defense of Germany and German bureaucracy for start-ups following @patrickc's post on the matter. So let me give you a list of the FKIN insanity I faced after acquiring a German company - list is not exhaustive. In random order: * 16hs live read at the notary of financing documents * Embassy-apostilled wet signature to change address * Officer to monitor working hours of (remote) workers * Notarized Etherscan-printout to validate Ethereum tx * Notary to escrow a Safe multisig (lol again) * PostIndent on everything that moves (in German) * Purchase of nominal share price only in EUR * Pre-study for foreign investing in strategic (any) assets * BONUS: try to do performance management in GER Fun fact on (1): after 16hs reading financing docs, at 11.30 PM, the notary informed us that if we wouldn't have finished by midnight they would have had to change the date on the contracts and re-read them again from scratch. What I have seen in Germany blew my mind. And to anyone complaining of X anti-European spirit, I am European, born and bred, and I still think Europe is *BY FAR* the best place to spend your money. Maybe not the best place to make the money in the first place.
