Our society we live in is not possible without trust. Trust is everywhere - from the food you ingest, the vehicles you drive, the flights you take, so and and so on.

“Don’t trust, verify” while well intentioned is not meant to apply to everything, but some people seem to think it does. That’s just willful ignorance.

Completely agree

In many areas it is good to minimize trust, but there are many where trust is the beauty, and bit of magic of the human experience.

The only reason we can be here today taking to each other is because of trust.

For sure, most people do not purify and test their own water, so every sip they take is trust

I’ve had people try to convince me that they don’t need to trust food because they grow their own. I’m like .. oh so you mine your own salt too? 😂

😀😀

Yes from the sea! Come to Japan and see.

Seems to fit the minimizing trust thought.

But overall there's trust needed. Weird when people don't realize this. Driving is trusting random people everyday to drive safe from age 15 to 100? 😄

Had someone come out to the house and test the water because the pipes were about 70 years old. Surprisingly the water was very pure.

The Koreans use metal chopsticks because back in their culture the emperor would use silver chopsticks to make sure nobody was poisoning him. Don't trust verify!

I don’t trust this note I will need to go and verify it

trust is basically the most important thing our our society,related to all walks of life. a person more like a dead person if no one trust him or he doesn't know how to trust others.

a country gonna be an isolated island if lost its trust from other countries.

a happy life should not be considered how much money one have,but how much trust he earned and how far he can positively influence peoples mind and way of life....😊

We're you around for #TrustChain? I think it was @hodl who was zapping plebs 1mil sats to then be returned based on trust. I think we ended up shooting that million sats to over 20 plebs. Not a sat was lost.

Yes I was. He zapped me too.

Yeah it’s more like “don’t trust (blindly), verify (first)”, but that’s a little less catchy.

Right - otherwise we lose the value of hard-won knowledge. The 'Promethean Flame' can extinguish itself; important to remember to appreciate and consider the capability and responsibility of this time in which we live. -- I hear you, and it is unfortunate that We waste so much time burning energy on trivialities; largely by design - to consume finite matter, in finite time. --- Lot's a 'Why's' to refine there. --Ha! --But yeah, the earth is flat, modern medicine is incredible, we know that its possible to deliver healthcare at the national level more cost-effectively, there is abundant sunlight and wind we can pair with batteries for a longer game paired with prudent selection of nuclear and/or alternative tech. for the redundancy, technical maturity, and intermittency-issues ...and with patches the size of US states worth of trees and life burning from the Amazon (ONE of the 'Lungs of the Earth') is a single year....that can only happen so many times...and the number is NOT 100.... We can employ millions of people deploying and building the infrastructure and transition of energy grid, and support necessary things to come in 10 years or so...one of the most...importance resources we'll have ...and something we MUST get very good at broadly...'Water'....but that's a whole thing.... -- So yeah -- we don't have time to debate whether the Earth revolves around the Sun; a dude already did house arrest and pissed off a Pope for that a few hundred years ago..it was silly af then...silly af now....'and still the earth moves' ---- Meanwhile A.I out here kicking off, and what I DO know if media is anything to go by, is I must keep a weather eye out for sexy-AI robots with translucent torsos and relentless parkour robot dog/soldiers with thumbs, weapons, a well engineered energy system, and 'all-points' wifi...... I've no time for folks breaking beers my guy...Simply....no Time. HA!

Only pure information things can go pure trustless. If one wants to verify their loved one, they will have a hard time.

It's not meant to be taken so literally in every context. It just means be more conscious of your decisions and actions.

I had this bookmarked. It got lost in my bookmarks 🙃 So true!
