I've told the other half many times, if she gets broken into don't phone the police.

No else knows they are there......🤣🤣

Meh, I'm more a fan of their screams detering others.... 😂

You may want to also drill down in comments as without an edit function I have to finish a though under the original post...

So your solution is to criticise everyone until they adopt your economic but not physical alternative?

Well yes and no. The simple model might suggest that after 5 generations (1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32) the generation is only 1/32 of the original. 1/32 doesn’t sound like much, But specific dominant traits which are expressed in you today because they are “dominant” would likely persist in them because they are “dominant”. Like brown eyes. Also some genes cluster because they are located closely on the chromosomes and so would inherited traits. And finally the other mathematical element of reproduction is present. Multiplication. With each generation the number of people which are my progeny increases. Assuming each generation is only fertile enough for replacement. I have two kids. Replacing myself and their mother. And they have two kids replacing themselves and their future spouses, etc (2,4,8,16,32) after 5 generations there are 32 people you would look at to determine if they had any of my traits, and I expect you would be able to find individuals in the 32 which would retain a cluster of the original genes especially dominant that are expressed in that generation. They would have my hair color or straightness, or smile etc. or they may “think” like me or something else. Because these traits weren’t really mine anyway, they were my great great grandparents before they were mine. And the fact that they are in us now is fact enough that they have persisted. Over the long term what persists depend on the selective pressures, which brings us back to the original topic. The multiplication and division gives us a lot of diversity in the 5th generation. What is the selective pressure determines what would be fit. In that generation which on the longer term overwhelms all the other math and you are left with what is fit. But if we keep using all the technological advancements that remove the selective pressures what was in the past selected for will be available to a smaller percentage of the population. But it’s exchanged at the cost of less death so 🤷.

Last week my mate talked about getting the power tools on the allotment and I said no, I'm doing it the old way, with hand tools and hard work, I dont want to do it the easy way. He looked at me as if I was mad.

Yesterday my grandad had an OT around to bring a few bits to make navigating his home a bit safer since his accident. I asked him about those chairs that lift you from seated to upright.

'No no, don't want it, had one already'

'Why dis you get rid of it?'

'Makes life too easy'.

So, I can clearly see where I get that attitude from...makes me wonder sometimes, how much of me is uniquely me and how much of me is what was imprinted on me as a child?

I joke with my daughter about free will, I tell her she has none, I've programmed her since birth and she does what I want her to do. I'm also now wondering how much I was joking about that.

😀 well if you had good genes and you use interventions your genes are passed on. If you had good genes and you don’t use interventions your genes are passed on.

If you have bad genes and use interventions your genes are passed on to the detriment of the gene pool. If you had bad genes and didn’t take interventions your genes are not passed on protecting the gene pool. This is obviously an oversimplification. But if you are refusing interventions you only improve the gene pool by being excluded from breeding through death or not being selected by a mate due to your weakness. 🤣 Choosing not to procreate is a trait that is maladaptive for survival of the species and is a characteristic that is constantly being selected against. Thank you for your contribution😅

I know all this rhymes with some gross oppression in history. But that doesn’t mean the underlying facts about a gene pools interaction with selective pressures aren’t true. 🤔☹️

No, it's simply the economic component of getting away from them, it doesn't make the physical obstruction disappear.

So it’s like fiat then

It takes all kinds. 🤙🏻

Bitcoin not a lifeboat unless the fiat empire lets you go? Some lifeboat…

I’d suggest you ignore that very thing.

The more kids you have, seeds you plant, and animals you raise.. the more forward you think.

Apocaloptimism is the way. Sure.. the stupid shit in the world is failing. But the good stuff.. it’s getting stronger.

Don’t fall for the doomerism. Life is freakin awesome.
