Is Bitcoin Bad for the Environment? Jul 22, 2022

Show notes

There is a lot of FUD about Bitcoin being bad for the environment. What is the truth? Should we be "mining" Bitcoin? Let's take a look at some of the current ways that Bitcoin is being mined and the extremely clever ways that Bitcoin mining operations are using "stranded" energy in the form of natural gas and methane to mine bitcoin.

A Brief History of French Colonial Africa Jul 11, 2022

Show notes

Time to dust off the history books. France, along with other European nations, has a long history of involvement with Africa. Much of this history is based on exploitation of both the natural resources and the people of Africa. The direct French involvement did not end in many of these countries until 1960.

This history, and the subsequent treaties established during independence of the African nations during the 1958 - 1960 time period set the stage for the continued economic exploitation of the African continent.
