In 'Skin in the Game' by Taleb (I know), it is argued that an intransigent minority of a few percent can drive sweeping change when the rest of the population is indifferent. The example given is that a lot of food is produced to Halal/Kosher standards, even when a large majority of people does not have this requirement.
Let's be the intransigent minority for free speech, #Bitcoin, #Nostr, anti-CBDC
Why would it work less when #nostr expands? I'd argue 4V4 would work much *better* when there's 100x more users.
Are the inhabitants of a dystopia aware that they are living in one? And do they know how they got to this point? Do they agree on this amongst each other?
Somewhat agree, but the fact that the person is a victim makes them a most legitimate spokesperson for a cause, and their message is received much more powerfully
In some cases, I think you can make something good out of victimhood, by becoming a champion for a cause. In your example, if drunk driving is endemic in the area where you live, you can raise awareness about its consequences, and become a kind of spokesperson. Thereby you could possibly (not necessarily) be making the world a bit better, while doing something that is highly meaningful to you.
Glad to hear you're having a blast with QM, but be careful when learning things from an LLM, they make all kinds of mistakes. I'd just get a textbook instead
I know - the weird thing is that instead google is supposed to be ur fren 🤨
The wef is a conference at which some spectacularly bad ideas have been promoted in the past. So if someone goes there to promote (much) better ideas, it's counterproductive to sling mud at them for it
As soon as someone goes to the wef conference, even if it is to give a speech that goes entirely against the grain of the crowd, people will say he's "one of them". Single brain-cell thinking
This needs the gangsta glasses
The one ring is cbdc. Bitcoin is what? Andúril, the reforged blade? Lembas, the ever-nourishing elvish bread? Phial of Galadriel, a beacon of starlight in the darkest hour

At this point I think about two thirds of my followers are bots
nostr:npub1hea99yd4xt5tjx8jmjvpfz2g5v7nurdqw7ydwst0ww6vw520prnq6fg9v2 Your Sparrow intro video is excellent, are you planning on a whole series of those (possibly with higher resolution)? You have my vote!
Crazy that it took this long to get to this point. Kudos to you for standing up and not folding
These can be disabled in the repo. If they're not, assume that the project is glad for you to annoy it
I see - so in a republic, the judiciary is more independent of the executive and the legislative branches than in a democracy? This would probably depend on whether it is a country based on common law or on civil law.
