👀 The New York Times reported yesterday that in 2015 and 2016, not long before his death, Epstein invested a substantial sum into a company that Thiel had co-founded. Valar Ventures, a venture capital firm that (like many of Thiel’s other companies) is named after a creature from J.R.R. Tolkein’s mythos, received $40 million from Epstein, according to the report.
The sum that Epstein invested is now reportedly worth close to $170 million, based on a confidential financial analysis from Epstein’s estate and a statement from a Valar spokesman viewed by the New York Times. Epstein’s estate is benefiting from the investment, the Times report states.

"Forget the chip and pin, Greece is making a digital leap, and your plastic debit card will soon be nothing more than wallet clutter. Greece’s biggest banks are phasing out debit cards for ATM withdrawals and replacing them with smartphone apps. If you’ve got Apple Pay, Google Pay, or a banking application with NFC, you’re in, if not? Well, it might be time to upgrade or get very good at asking strangers for help. It’s a major change driven by security, convenience, and the digital agenda taking hold in Europe. As Greece speeds ahead, the question remains who will be left behind?" https://euroweeklynews.com/2025/05/29/say-goodbye-to-your-bank-card-greek-atms-go-fully-contactless/

"Did I go too far in writing my satire?" I wondered at the time. "Not nearly far enough," I conclude a couple years later.

TIL there's a conspiracy theory in China that says that most of Western history is a hoax. They believe that most of the history of Ancient Rome, Greece and Egypt is fabricated. For instance, they believe Greek sculptures and architecture can't be from that time because "they're too refined"

TIL that during WWII, 14,700 tons of Silver loaned from the US Treasury were used for the circuitry of the Manhattan Project, because there wasn't enough copper due to war-time shortages. All but "thirty six thousandths of one percent" were returned to the US Treasury by June 1st, 1970.

"If there ever was a based libertarian, then Hoppe is it.
"To be clear, Hoppe is not a monarchist. Rather, his argument is that, both from a historical and philosophical standpoint, monarchs are not as bad as elected parliaments. This is because a king’s realm is his private property, and he will therefore want to improve and protect its value. By contrast, a parliament is only responsive to the voters, whose whims are short-term and emotional, and as a result, the country will suffer from the madness of mobs."
