Morning musing

One of the more common pushback arguments I get in discussions about decentralisation is what I call "The big project idea". This is the idea that one needs big government to undertake big projects in a centralised manner. My arguement to this comes from the deep water projects in the oilfield. Risk and cost is distributed amongst partners and rarely does a single company take on a multi-billion investment project on their own.

The Big Project idea is like suggesting that without some centralised state authority, there cannot be human collaboration. It's such a bizarre argument to me.

Now we have #nostr. Decentralised collaborative effort to rebuild the entire fucking internet in a better way for all. My guess is that even an example as big as Nostr will still not be enough for many to shift thinking.
