史诗之念
文/安彦魁
出埃及记14-15章，
看到一个壮丽的史诗。
什么叫史诗？
诗篇中的历史诗？
外邦中的荷马史诗？
一种古典以来的神话？
或者是被革命了的牛鬼蛇神？
历史和诗的陌生，
神话却介入其中，
媒妁之言，
究竟是假神的假历史？
还是超历史的真神，
住在了血肉之体的福音？
诗性的历史啊，
长得如此标致。
眉目的清秀俊美，
好像比准了尺度。
历史的身段窈窕，
淑女竟翩翩起舞！
历史记录了客观，
诗歌记忆了主观，
但他们不是敌人，
是失散已久的兄弟姐妹
在和好的那一刻，
紧紧的相拥一起！

elegram is updating its messaging app with options for auto-deleting messages, expiring invite links, and new unlimited groups, the company shared in a blog post. Much like Signal, Telegram received a burst of new users in the confusion over WhatsApp’s privacy policy and now the company is adopting features that were already part of its competitors’ apps, features which offer more security and privacy. Auto-deleting messages were already possible in Telegram’s encrypted Secret Chats, but this new update for iOS and Android adds the option to make messages disappear in any kind of chat. Auto-delete can be enabled inside of chats, and set to delete either 24 hours or seven days after messages are sent. Auto-delete won’t remove every message though; if a message was sent before the feature was turned on, it’ll stick around. Telegram’s competitors have had similar features: WhatsApp introduced a feature in 2020 and Signal has had disappearing messages since at least 2016.
Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that you can buy, sell and exchange directly, without an intermediary like a bank. Bitcoin’s creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, originally described the need for “an electronic payment system based on cryptographic proof instead of trust.” Each and every Bitcoin transaction that’s ever been made exists on a public ledger accessible to everyone, making transactions hard to reverse and difficult to fake. That’s by design: Core to their decentralized nature, Bitcoins aren’t backed by the government or any issuing institution, and there’s nothing to guarantee their value besides the proof baked in the heart of the system. “The reason why it’s worth money is simply because we, as people, decided it has value—same as gold,” says Anton Mozgovoy, co-founder & CEO of digital financial service company Holyheld.
