susceptible to manipulation, desired for self-promotion rather than genuine connections. The later is cultivated not networked. Judge by the content of one’s notes, connections don’t define one’s character or values.

How might you build genuine connections, ad opposed to low trust self-promotion?

Rarely does it occur without prolonged dialogue, typically involving at least two shared interests and a common mode of dialectic that sparks a mutual desire to are more about each other than the shared interests.

reputation might be useful in a gated single interest, but the basic foundation of that is simply keeping on that single interest, but in more general context reputation quickly becomes the end instead of a means to an end.

Genuine connections need trust. Trust is a statistical and informatic phenomenon.

Getting trustworthy connections is highly improbable if you don't know the person you are trying to trust. My proposal to circumvent this is to try to scale the energy society can use. Energy can make you able to achieve low-probability high-order events, to swim against entropy. It could make the search for trust feasible in the future.

I am confused

Yeah, energy is confusing. I'm talking about a loose idea, don't take me too seriously.

I just see the connection between trust being a low probability phenomenon and energy being able to achieve improbable states, things that some people could call miracles. I'm not saying how that could be achieved in real life
