art and top shelf cutting edge engineering both share this property and spring from the same well of chaos :D
leonardo had to take on some questionable contracts to be able to keep doing his research, nothing different for us now either

Very good point. The freedom tech space must be creative in attaining independence from tradfi. I may be alluding to tools and models that don't exist yet, some of which would use traffic as a stepping stone
there's really no solution for it, if you are a genius you can figure it out, i think that's the thing - or maybe someone else sees it and they figure out how to add something that it needed
leonardo's stuff got forgotten mostly because there was no practical way to implement the ideas, flying machines, for example... these needed teh internal combustion engine and that needed a whole swag of other things a way too long list of prerequisites
just like how satoshi's genius invention needed a heap of things others discovered before he came along, and then on top of it in his case, the technology is so disruptive that everything that works with it struggles to get over into economic viability
