You're certain that tantrums are conditioned behavior? What if they're instinct?

Eugenics has the same problem that censorship has. Just like with speech where we can't answer the question "who gets to decide what is and isn't true?" neither can we answer the question "who gets to decide what is and isn't bred into the next generation?" (well, we can decide for our family, but not for others) None of us is wise enough to answer that, even if we understand the general principle that suspending natural selection must be weakening us.

I predict within 200 years A.I. will perform eugenics on us.

Then you choose to change and grow together just like you chose wedlock in the first place and made a commitment. To each their own of course. I'm just saying no amount of divorce rate is "healthy" and has lifelong repercussions on the family especially children. I am speaking from firsthand experience

I have been unsuccessfully shilling Nostr to my normie friends. They all use Insta and obviously don’t own bitcoin.

How can I do better?

True. Definitely an edge case.

A red warning letting me know that this could be an imposter would be 🤌 Not sure that would help if the Imposter gets to Nostr first though. I can imagine the actual person getting flagged in some cases. And the flag would technically be correct if you already follow the imposter. Somewhat complex issue

Weak.

But what are good ways to actually verify that a particular npub belongs to a particular person?

It's going to become a lot more difficult as more people and bots enter.

I think it was easier for those of us who were early because we were mostly all part of the same relatively small circle of people. I just followed based on the fact that someone I follow followed them. This way makes assumptions that may not always be true.

In La Rioja Argentina, the governor created a local currency “the Chacho.”

It can be exchanged into the Argentine Pesos 1 for 1 with a 17% interest rate paid to the holder.

My question is… if the Argentine peso is being devaluated daily… wouldn’t that also devaluate the Chaco?

I admire what he has done for his people. Keep up the great work but please look at this strategy and modify accordingly.

Is accessing nostr through the tor network built into mobile client apps? If not, how can I achieve privacy with those?

Sometimes it seems to me that you and I are terrifyingly similar

How long do you think I can resist without someone killing me?

How do we mute on #amethyst? Is there a way to do so?

How can this thing be fixed?

Curious in the #bitcoin space...

What's the general feeling about the therapeutic use of plant medicines such as psilocybin mushrooms, San Pedro (wachuma) cactus and/or Ayahuasca tea?

Do you partake or have a desire to?

What's your go to?

Do you micro dose or sit in ceremony?

Do you have desire for exploring these realms for healing and therapeutic reasons?

#asknostr

I'm really curious about the second. Lol!

I understand servility or the fake affection that certain people give when you’re in a position of power or fame. Receiving that kind of "love" is the ugliest feeling because you can sense how insincere and false most people are. They will disappear the moment your power or fame ends. They are not there for you—they are there for themselves, trying to gain recognition by using your power. These people are not your friends; they are the sycophants of your power. If they have never opposed, criticized, or offended you, they hate you.

taxation is sharing for the public good, not theft. let's discuss who's having to contribute more, how it's being spent, on who and on what, which people are making these decisions etc.

I’m sober 😒

What is your opinion on servile people who are too weak to achieve personal success and use or grovel to powerful others to feel powerful themselves?

People who are afraid to oppose their boss or authority?

#Asknostr

That's pretty much what I said, and one of my key points to argue that BTC will never achieve medium of exchange, a.k.a, currency status among retail, which will continue to use fiat. Both because they will be priced out of transacting with BTC by the big economic actors (I repeat: transacting with BTC, not simply buying it), and because States will simply continue to issue fiat and force them to use it.

Even in places like Argentina, the USD is not used for common daily stuff (a.k.a., "buying lattes") but for bigger and longer term transactions. In fact, the USD is rather used for savings, that is, as store of value, as another form of property, which is eventually converted to the local currency when it's time to transact. Just like Bitcoin.

We all did become more intelligent, but not necessarily more knowledgeable.

The question, of course, is if the scores were meaned to the same year, so that they could even be compared. I'm assuming that they are, which would mean that it's not because of an overall increase in intelligence.

Of course, we can't look at the paper to check, now, cuz it got censored. 🙄

Why nostr:npub1s3ht77dq4zqnya8vjun5jp3p44pr794ru36d0ltxu65chljw8xjqd975wz ? Isn‘t Git about the bazaar? Or did I mix up something?

Yes, but rebel groups invariably create a new state and the head of that new state should sleep as unsoundly as the head of the last one.

Everyone at the top of a hierarchy should have to fight to stay there.

From the moment they sit down on the throne, someone should be storming the castle. The competition should be constant and relentless.

Capitalism is red in tooth and claw.
