Getting a list of all currencies from Wikidata with SPARQL by 
Ciro Santilli 34 Updated 2024-12-15 +Created 2024-11-18
Ciro Santilli 34 Updated 2024-12-15 +Created 2024-11-18This one was way harder than my previous fun with "find the oldest people who won a given prize" (Nobel Prize/Oscar) mastodon.social/@cirosantilli/112689376315990248 because unlike those prizes where all the decisions are centralized, countries are much more complicated beasts, with changing currencies and international recognition.
This was a good experience to see a few ways in which Wikidata is inconsistent, with the same concept being expressed in multiple different ways, e.g. "end time" property of the current vs the superior "end time" qualifier.
Particularly bad is the notion of a "deprecated rank", that should really not exist.
This is exactly the type of semi interactive data munching that I like to do, a bit in the same vein as CIA 2010 covert communication websites and Cool data embedded in the Bitcoin blockchain.
As you might imagine, the secret services use exactly this type of knowledge modelling to do their dirty business, e.g. Gaffer by the GCHQ.
If only I weren't such a rebel, I'd be a perfect fit for the intelligence agencies.
This is the best monstrosity I had the patience to come up with:It got quite close to the ISO 4217 list.

500,000 Transnistrian ruble banknote 1997 series
. This is one of the most widely used currencies which does not have an ISO 4217 code.Announcements:
I also had one more fun with: opendata.stackexchange.com/questions/15750/structured-data-for-nobel-prizes/21847#21847 getting some basic info about Nobel Prize winners, and noticed one, John Sulston, 2002 Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine laureate, who likely has the wrong place of birth on his Nobel Prize profile: www.nobelprize.org/prizes/medicine/2002/sulston/facts/ which is funny. I suggested the change now. Edit they fixed it after I pointed it out:
Another highlight was 1913 Nobel Prize in Chemistry laureate Alfred Werner who born either in Mulhouse in Alsace, France, or in "Yo no sé qué me pasó" ("I don't know what happened to me" in Spanish), a 1986 song by Mexican singer Juan Gabriel.

Restoring Your Crypto Confidence: Why Neuro Cyber Force Recovery Stands Out by 
Maria Rose 0 Updated 2024-12-15 +Created 2024-11-18
Maria Rose 0 Updated 2024-12-15 +Created 2024-11-18In the high-stakes world of cryptocurrency, the loss or theft of valuable Bitcoin holdings can be a devastating blow, leaving investors scrambling to recover their hard-earned digital riches. Enter the " Neuro Cyber Force Recovery Approach" - a meticulous, detective-like process that aims to track down and reclaim these missing Bitcoins. Drawing on the sleuthing skills of seasoned crypto-crime investigators, this recovery method leaves no stone unturned in pursuit of the lost coins. From meticulously combing through blockchain transaction records to diving deep into the dark web's shadowy underworld, the Neuro Cyber Force Recovery team utilizes an array of sophisticated tools and techniques to follow the digital money trail. They might analyze complex wallet histories, liaise with law enforcement, or even employ cutting-edge forensic analysis - all in a bid to outwit the cunning thieves and return the stolen cryptocurrency to its rightful owners. It's a high-stakes game of cat and mouse, where victory means the difference between financial ruin and the restoration of lost fortunes. For those who have fallen victim to Bitcoin heists, the Neuro Cyber Force Recovery Approach offers a glimmer of hope - a chance to reclaim what was taken and return to the crypto-investing landscape as victors, not victims. With dogged determination and an unrelenting commitment to justice, these digital detectives pursue the ever-elusive goal of reuniting investors with their lost digital riches.

An Introduction to the Transmon Qubit for Electromagnetic Engineers by Ciro Santilli 34 Updated 2024-12-15 +Created 2024-11-15
Ciro Santilli 34 Updated 2024-12-15 +Created 2024-11-15This is a good review article.
Can anyone know that clearcoins came from Serai DEX? Because if they can, exchanges could just blacklist anything coming from Serai DEX.
Ciro Santilli asked at: x.com/cirosantilli/status/1855332323405009047. They replied, and the answer is yes, it is possible to know that clearcois came from Serai: x.com/SeraiDEX/status/1855337686208516523:
Serai is fully auditable. With that is full transparency into all outputs received, and all outputs sentRemoving auditability would massively incrase complexity and force users into needing to make fraud proofs if they didn't receive coins expected, or require extreme ZK proofs
It is hard to differentiate genius from mad by Ciro Santilli 34 Updated 2024-12-15 +Created 2024-11-15

Certainly he looks after his image very strictly, endlessly saying how good he is. And he is definitely a high flying bird. Perhaps it is hard to differentiate genius from mad applies.

Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.
