## Engagement
- status: peak_post_only
- peak_post_engagement_rate: 0.00041
- best_post_interactions: 21
- measurement_source: x_post_interactions
- measurement_formula: interactions on one post — likes, or likes + reposts + replies depending on the discovery path (the two are not distinguishable in the stored data)
- comparable_pool: peak_interactions
- status_note: We have only the single best observed post, so no mean exists. peak_post_engagement_rate is an UPPER BOUND, systematically higher than an average — never compare it against an average rate.
- unit_note: engagement_rate and peak_post_engagement_rate are ratios (0-1); avg_interactions_per_post and best_post_interactions are absolute counts. Read status before reading any number: a null rate has several different causes and status says which one applies here.

## Evidence
- [x_dsbatten#e24b8a39] When you only belong to one tribe, there's a very high risk you take on the beliefs of that tribe and don't DYOR. When you know different peole from different tribes and are interested in truth, you tend to put the beliefs of each tribe to one side and go looking for it.

- [x_dsbatten#6edc94cb] The story about the Aussie brewery recycling ASICS heat to power 20,000 gallons of beer production each month keeps getting better. Turns out the Bitcoin mining runs 100% on excess solar from the brewery's rooftop panels => no grid power => lower carbon footprint
- [x_dsbatten#7e1be391] Coldcard-hack assistance If you need any assistance with rescuing your Bitcoin from a Coldcard-wallet, one of my clients has helped dozens of individuals with this and is working pretty much full time through to Nov to help as many people as possible with this.
