Competency is required to intentionally hinder human flourishing at that scale. It is very much an issue of competency and foresight. I agree that the centralization presents issues since the cost of mistakes is much higher than in a decentralized system. There’s also the problem of iterations which is harder with more centralized systems. He’s in favor because he thinks the system is out to get him; I’m in favor because I think the system is fundamentally incompetent. Make sense?
Are you talking about the engineering side?
Bad advocates, you see the dog pile that’s happening right now? That’s what drives people away and makes them think all these guys are a bunch of crazy people. When you see the same reasoning say Bitcoin is the future say that the banks and governments are actively conspiring to ruin quality of life it makes the whole enterprise look unreasonable.
When did I ever advocate for fiat currencies in this conversation. Please, I’ll wait. I’m sure with your staggering cognitive powers you can find it.
Read the full string of messages retard. The disagreement is not about the benefits of bitcoin.
If he wants a polite conversation, he should be polite. Otherwise, fuck off.
One tard at a time please.
I was saying that the people you’re talking about are not competent enough to get the results they want consistently, not your competency. Seriously, reading ANY books would be good enough to fix this level of literacy.
You started being disrespectful way earlier my man. What do you think those laughing emojis were communicating? Maybe self awareness is the real problem.
Proofs by Jay Cummings is a great intro to mathematical logic and gives you a lot to work with in terms of general math literacy a pretty good foundation for further learning. Honestly, if you don’t do much reading, try to look for things that interest you - philosophy is a broad category that I think you should look into.
Reading comprehension is sorely lacking on your part. But I’ll elaborate anyways: cult like behavior surrounding Bitcoin doesn’t mean the idea of Bitcoin is bad or necessarily cultish. I’m rooting for Bitcoin, I hope it succeeds at all its project goals. That doesn’t exonerate you for acting like a cultist, however. Pythagoras was right about a handful of noteworthy things, but his cult also believed a bunch of nonsense on top of all that. You can be right about things and still be in a cult, being in a cult doesn’t automatically make you wrong about everything - it just calls into question how you arrived at those conclusions. If you believe something fervently but can’t explain why, you’re not actually thinking for yourself.
All I see is buzzwords from you. You could easily change my view by going off script for even one post.
Explain how this is proof of malice. All I see is bog standard short term thinking.
The main issue I see is a staggering lack of critical thinking skills on display for most of the maxis here. It actually goes further, when you aren’t with the maxis you’re against them, so they get aggressive. These traits strike me as cult like. I know why I’m interested in the technology but most of these people seem to survive on buzzwords alone.
I don’t think you understand the disagreement here. We both agree that decentralization is good. Maybe learn to read before contributing next time.
Are you finished? Or are you actually going to backup anything you say? Got anymore laughing emojis?
Justify anything you say beyond, “just look at it bro” and maybe I’ll start to think Bitcoin isn’t a cult. Otherwise its all posturing. Read a book, learn some math.
