Which initial idea? Crypto anarchy?
Probably best to leave the area. But if you see someone, be super nice.
I should read them again. Its been... decades. I'll probably have more valuable insights next time.
Must be the sound of energy hornets, then.
They're also problems more for a less developed time. His reaction was probably appropriate back then.
π€ One does not know a thing by not knowing a thing.
So many ways to split up that sentence / change emphasis, while still working....
Anyways, I meant it to mean : study your enemies. Steel man them. Get better at their own material than they are. Then you know what they'll do before they know. And you'll know the language of peace for after you win.
Oh wait, no, I read the middle left one too.
That's a lot of propo. The only one I've read is the one on the top right. Absolute garbage. I recommend Lenin's "State and Revolution"
I'm not a communist. Just saying...
On second thought, I'm taking this one back. Printing is extraordinarily inhumane. It just appears humane in the first order set of effects. Second, third, etc order effects are mass homelessness, suicides, wars - all on a larger scale than simple theft allows. But that's also kinda my point, if people would please fucking notice it... Drones lower the cost of violence at an exponential rate over time, and as bitcoin makes material things cheaper, it will only assist in reducing the cost of drones. Simple theft will be more than enough to sustain a state.
Quite. Different word.
No, I'm quite good at self harm, no help needed, but thanks.
Haha the well formulated response, for any reasonable person, to showcase his proof of concept. Anyone not yet convinced? nostr:nprofile1qyd8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnndamx2un9d9nkutnpwpcz7qpq2h6h8dj3ale4rk6hkpsp6gcz9kx9xtucyhd3pftn86lnn0j25gdslv72w4 will love to explain his concepts he does not even understand himself.
But attention. When you will not understand he may bites you π
I only bite retards.
You're wasting my time.
You are both quiet rare pessimist with a big realitydisconnection.
The state is only a group of people, same as a company is a group of people. In order to rule, a government always has to legitimate itself.
Democratic politicians legitimize their power through elections and the political institutions through the decisions of the politicians. Jourists legitimate their decisions on the laws. Laws are created by executive power and accepted by parlament.
National banks have independence from politics and have independent goals to get to 2% inflation and stabilize the value of the money.
So whome of the above named sends the drones to your face nostr:nprofile1qyd8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnndamx2un9d9nkutnpwpcz7qpq2h6h8dj3ale4rk6hkpsp6gcz9kx9xtucyhd3pftn86lnn0j25gdslv72w4 ?
The state is not those things. The state is whoever has the power. If those things don't have the power, someone or something else will ; and if something or someone else has the power, then that's the state. There are many ways of legitimation, and the approval of the farm animals is not the only way. Throw a dart at a map and tell me what you hit. You live in a bubble made out of your ignorance. It doesn't sound like you've ever travelled or experienced risk.
I have, and I had the balls to risk my life in a situation where I had no power. I openly defied the police in a communist country. I lived. Now you tell me about states and legitimacy. You're a clown.
Considering the other ways to steal, printing is relatively humane.
Some "I told you so" moments are too late. You're dead. I'm dead. If you hadn't been an idiot, maybe we could have done something.
Idiot. Are you not reading what I write, or simply choosing not to understand?
So what's your plan then? They send 100 drones with one order - fly at your face and detonate. Are your 100 drones going to intercept them? How's that going to work?
In a world of drones, the biggest terrorist wins. There's no defense.
π€ if you see someone pushing for violence under the name of #anarchy, what you've found is an agent of the state.
Anarchists have **_always_** chosen the peaceful option. There's a whole fascinating history of this, and a whole fascinating history of state actors framing them for violence. Why? Because violence is the sole source of legitimacy for the state.
Ehhh. I don't want robots building my shit. I want amazing tutorials that show me every tiny detail, and I get all the skills myself, and it doesn't matter if it takes me years to build a thing because if I can do it once, I can do it again.
If there are no soldiers, just pure murder for free, then they win.
A truly free society will require small, cheap chip fabs. If we have to trust a chipmaker, then there's always a backdoor. Chips need not be the most cutting edge - if we can print up 10 mb on a card that fits into a slot, then we have infinitely scalable sovereign computing. The bar is low. But we can't even do that. That was one of my first questions after I understood bitcoin... We're totally dependent on backdoorable stuff even for that unimpressive level.
Crypto anarchy needs to mean more than just unconfiscable money. States have infinitely scalable violence in the form of drones. There are a lot of hard problems to solve, but this one in particular is a danger - specifically a danger to us, since wealth is moving here.
That's surprising, tbh. I saw you talking about this yesterday and thought it was silly, but I think that llm made a pretty good case for it. Are you trying to get a fab like that built in the US?
Home from Japan. I already miss the toilets but not the hard beds π

Hard beds are the way. My back rebels if it spends a night on cushions.
Typical hateful response from an Israel simp
A zionist is someone who thinks the bible justifies the state of Israel, which I think is the worst possible misinterpretation of the bible. They also think Jews are more special than other people and deserve a privileged status in our society and in the world. I am not saying anything negative about Jews by saying this. Its just what's going on.
The theological details can get complicated, but I'm willing to talk about it if you want.
Looks interestink. But first, must say in response to its blurb : it wasn't a desert when people were building that stuff.
Won't that require judgement, value assessment, weighting of what's desirable? Won't that open a Pandora's jar of other dangers? What if the conscience causes it to judge some humans as less valuable than others? A conscience is not necessarily a good conscience.
Build a castle!
Probably works. Foot massages are next level.
Acupuncture is probably good enough. There was another word, a broader category...
The Age of Aquariums!!
π€ Idk jack about astrology, but I like aquaria. And if there's anything to this Aquarius stuff, bitcoin did it.
#Bitcoin is a test. Actually, two tests.
First, are you too egotistical to admit you were wrong?
Second, how quickly do you learn?
Thus, bitcoin strips away the moral camouflage that our egos hide under, and reveal the truth about ourselves : are we Good? And just how good?
Most people, most of the time, can't stand the sight of themselves. We have the greatest gift to humanity, as well as the best asset imaginable, and people prefer to pretend they didn't see it. Why? Because they're seeing themselves, and they can't stand the sight.
Pay attention to which people listen. That's your team. It doesn't matter what they look like, whether they go to church, have a career or credit score - that's all noise. Did they pass the test? Then they will grow. Shun the ones who live in illusions.
For sure... Just thinking it may be a factor. And fiat was invented by Dutch Netherlands. Wisselbank - first central bank.
I'm regretting writing a note that might demoralize devs on here. Gonna hit that request deletion button
Yes, buuuuut... No one sits down to enjoy a 3k page wall of code.
I think this actually happens.
