Yesterday I got one more call from from my pal https://stacker.news/items/456560
And he really surprised me when he started conversation. He said: _"Soon I'll be able to buy low cost electricity and I have an idea to buy ASIC and start to mine. Will you help me with it?"_

That was a short conversation, I told him about noise, heat, how people use ASICs as "free" heaters, etc. He additionally asked about wallets, how ASICs work, how to sell what he'll get as a reward.

I'm really exited he changed his mind about Bitcoin from sceptical to what he is today.

p.s. here's lots of used ASICs: s9 ~60 bucks (90k sats), s17 ~500 bucks (750k sats). Here comes the question, whoud you buy as beginner ASIC or spot buy sats?

Let's discuss it in the comments section

I was just talking about how great Human Action by Lugwig von Mises is with @elvismercury and since today's Mises Institute news letter linked to an old speech about the book I thought it was a perfect time to recommend it to the whole Stacker News community.

In my mind, this is *the* treatise on economics. Nowhere else will you find the underlying philosophical framework laid out so thoroughly. Some people really don't care about the philosophy (including most economists), but I find it fascinating.

I started reading Human Action in undergrad. That was inspired by the first Ron Paul campaign. I didn't have a copy of the book though, nor an e-reader, so I read it on the Kindle app on my iPhone 3. It's a monster of a book and probably took me about three months to get through.

> Indeed, if we look at the failure of the welfare state, the persistence of the business cycle, runaway inflation, and out-of-control debt, we'll see that each is addressed and predicted in Human Action.
