Good everyday language article on scientific consensus! If you think bitcoin consensus has drama, check this one out.
Remember how I was writing a book? Well, I gave up on it. But then I wrote a different one:
https://building-nostr.coracle.social/
This book is both practical and philosophical. It ellides a lot of the details you can otherwise get by reading Nostr NIPs, focusing instead on all the things I've learned over three years working on nostr.
It includes a number of contrarian opinions which may be partially or completely wrong. Feel free to disagree, or even tell me where I'm wrong. I'll be releasing updates to the book as I have time and inclination to repent of my mistakes and omissions.
The book is free, with epub and pdf versions available for your reading pleasure. If you like the book, you can send me bitcoin via nostr or at https://geyser.fund/project/buildingnostr, and if people like it enough I may publish a version that you can touch with your fingers.
Checking it now and geat rip on nostr:nprofile1qqs874el2hv8tn5wm3fgahuz99yl624el8r9my22gq39vcas56tmupcprpmhxue69uhhqun9d45h2mfwwpexjmtpdshxuet5qyvhwumn8ghj7um9dejxjapwdehhxenvv9ex2tnrdaksrf6n23 recently. I’ll forever be confused how some of the “don’t trust - verify” crowd trusts religion, but I absolutely love your takes on reality 😂
Minor quibble…
Physics -> Chemistry-> Biology
There’s no inherent good, bad, better or worse in them - it’s how they are wielded and to what end.
nostr:npub1zedr2e8jgkkpxs72d90525tc50emeu7ctrmw24jq92ldgnc8esks2ld6e3 and the Beef Initiative are worth following!
I consider Texas Slim's essay "The Harvest of Deception" to be the ultimate manifesto on understanding the problems of the seed oil based industrial food complex and how they're poisoning our food. You must understand how this deception works and what we can do to fight back:

Thanks for the share! Well that was long 😀, with lots of interesting hypotheses, claims and theories, but not a lot of support or links to studies for those theories in this particular essay. Since this is 4 years old now, I’d like to see the all that support material promised for “after the conference”. The Genetically Engineered and Modified bits are used a lot to fear monger when literally everything we eat was manually genetically engineered for centuries. My heart agrees but my mind needs more data and a bit less “tears in their eyes” style persuasion the author chooses to employ. Again, appreciate the nice coffee read today…..
That he thought regulators and politicians were honest and looking out for the whole was the first face plant, regardless of the topic! 😂
Same for the folks sharing shit they don’t actually understand for tribal head pats and circle jerking camaraderie😂
Unrelated to anything: dug the Scarlet / Fire jam with Trey and Mayer in SF recently- fucking cool.
This is one of those universal concepts that more should appreciate!!!
It’s the exact same feeling long term, proof of work in the field, scientists have hanging with normies as they spout their “sciency” nonsense.
People need to stay humble…..
I get what you mean (the ideal), but historically, it’s never been a good deal for the regular folk, just for the folks holding the holy treasure, with a hotline to god and absolute power over their “flock”. Too much bad shit for centuries to forgive there for my code of ethics.
There is no bullshit in Physics 101, Chemistry 101, and Biology 101.
Nothing is better as a foundation to find the truths you seek.
Take those classes and pass the final, then you’re ready to start improvising!!
I’m so rooting for you.
🌍 Surely external factors have an impact on our health; like sprayed skies, toxic substances injected to animals / our bodies etc..
So how do we make ourselves stronger and more resilient?
Pete Evans shares:
Belief systems are powerful; if you believe something will harm you, it might. Trust in the wisdom of our bodies and minds. Embrace self-discovery and empowerment.
Your body is a remarkable machine that can detox everything. 💪
Explore solutions like saunas, herbs, ice baths, meditation, and more time in nature. 🌿
Strengthen insecurities by observing why you think a certain way. Some get sick because they believe they will, but taking actions like eating organic can help.
COVID was an invitation to this new way of living life.

The irony of the decentralized champions club all connected to star link is funny though 😀

Discipline is a good one.
I think the kids are Vlogging these days😂
Put it in a transaction!
And we the new boss , same as the old boss, rinse and repeat, and again, let’s go!
How about you go fucking meet the teachers and get involved in the school. Most folks couldn’t teach their way out of a paper bag never mind prep a comprehensive 12 year curriculum WTF😂
⚡️🎞️ ARCHIVE - Legendary botanist David Bellamy lost his position at the BBC after dismissing the man-made climate change narrative as "poppycock".
Interviewer: "Do you believe man-made climate change is happening?"
Bellamy: "Absolutely not... There is no actual proof. There are a whole series of computer models, and you can fiddle computer models to say what you like."
"There is no proof at all scientifically, there are just models... It is total poppycock."

As folks that understand long term stacking sats, you’d think they’d appreciate the “long time preference view” of stacking CO2, but no, people still think 100 years is a long time. There’s a scoreboard of records, just watch how many highs are broken vs lows each year and wait. Up and to the right yo!
True, never saw it before, just reacted literally, what’s it from? What’s the actual point?
So you’re saying maybe he could shoot a guy on 16th Ave. but not shoot a load into a trafficked 16 year old? That’s the bridge too far for his supporters?🤔 hmmm I wonder…..
reminded twitter normies to stay humble and stack sats for 280 mornings straight during the generational bottom so i could kick it with the ride or dies on nostr for this bull run without any guilt 🫡

Max respect, you da man!
I didn’t even know that part about Ver, I just liked the chain details and the fact that you can use a few billion to write a mystery into the chain😀
Not sure about the high part 😂, but yea, no whys, just whats as I read it.
And I thought I’d missed getting sub 10k 🌽, 😂 I don’t know enough to know, but this appears to portend exciting, interesting and maybe a tad crazy times a coming…

Who Really Owns Your Creative Workflow? (Hint: Not You)
You need to own your creative workflow. They call it your account. Your files. Your work.
But if you ever stop paying, stop agreeing, or stop clicking “Accept,” they’ll show you exactly who it really belongs to.
It’s not you.

It reminds me of the days when most people had to work for the folks that owned the factory or “means of production” nearby so they were stuck. Then tech came along and gave more folks their own garage “factory” only to be sucked right back into a new factory that didn’t even make anything tangible for society, it just set up a “matrix” trap that makes it increasingly hard to escape - they’re like the mob protection racket, you wouldn’t want any to happen to you data now right? Ok I’m babbling 😀
Could never source that discernment stuff😂
Then the next gen and so on,
and so on,
and so on,
and so on
and the better times are always a tomorrow away that you never live….
You are usually measured so this is a weird one. The confidence of your assertion about Iran and nukes is bullshit and you know it. Im not advocating for bombing anyone, but don’t drop “facts” about nuke developments (not even close!) as if you actually know that when you don’t - that is just lazy.
You must be referring to the copper pennies you need that don’t even have copper anymore - “and that’s not all, you get the accupressure magnet knee brace free if you act now”!
It helps both the copper snake oil salesman AND the copper polish salesman- now that’s a win win baby!😀
Live Dead from 1969 where it all started with the jam band stuff that exists today. Check it out, save Dark Star for last, it’s a bit much for normies.
I’ve been teaching an intro to BTC class for a couple years now and it’s just not that easy for normies to grok from my experience. Now I could definitely be a shitty teacher so there’s that😂
The tricky part is that your description requires educating the masses first, and it’s too late for that on this topic, which is the problem right now.
…” especially since its success hinges on wider public understanding and use, not just the approval of developers.”
How long did it last there I wonder- seem to remember sulfuric acid rain or something like that in that hood..
As long as you realize, just like Dunning Kruger, that what annoys you is a human thing, not a them thing or those dopey folks thing - we all fall for our own shit, but we noticed their shit. 😀
I think you give them more credit than they deserve - you are the examiner and truth seeker type, they are just not thinking all this through at all. You are making them into conspirators when they are just reacting but not the self examining types Ha, I don’t know shit, ya wore me out man 😂
It’s the “to manipulate “ part that I don’t think you can count on. The rest I totally believe, but I would say they really think that stuff.
