Exploring all paths to a bright, harmonious and prosperous future world ... "A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in." Ancient Greek Proverb

years ago visiting a doctor's clinic. waiting for a check up. the doctor arrives bright and cheery and asks how everyone is.

"great" they reply.

doc replies "then why are you here!"

the days when medicine was practised with integrity.

thanks for the giggle

keep making those steps. everyone of them matters. even the ones that falter. the result will be stronger for all of them.

or put another way .... listen to these guys.

the only way to beat them is inform them of the error of their ways.

appeal to their intelligence -

"have you seen this/these. they seriously challenge what you are saying. some seriously smart guys behind the findings too .... might be worth reviewing in case .... nothing worse than looking stupid in public"

scientific peer reviewed papers that refute everything they say are easily found.

turn them from ostriches in to nostriches

on the subject of ai and building agents ....

what platform(s) would you recommend?

want to find devs with integrity and support their work

GM 🙃

notes from a day out ...

visiting an ai conference, the technology is fascinating and will undoubtedly help build a better world.

the scariest part of it all out of the 100+ people in the room ...

not one person questioned the fact they willingly giving everything to possibly the most vile man on the planet .....

the complete lack of understanding that they were willingly, not only giving up their privacy but trading their business ip and every thought ..... lemmings over a cliff.

it didn't stop there ....

wearables, glasses, microphones and other devices that track everything you see and hear, feeding it all back to the central database trying to build this dystopian world. they lapped it up ....

even the organiser when asked if I could photograph his driving license, which got a predictable NO!!!, didn't understand the privacy implications of what he was selling.

there are days when it seems a daunting battle.

then there are days when karma shows you patience and perseverance will be rewarded.

knowing the obstacle to negotiate, makes the journey that little bit easier.

the west paints russia as the villain at every opportunity. 100 years ago it was an ally. they are a stoic people who have fought many a bloody conflict to ensure civil rights.

beware of painted boundaries on maps. they are only there to divide the world. the people on the ground are just like you and i. families, loved ones and making a life for them.

the greater danger are the machiavellian powers in the US. they are loosing. if anyone pushes a button .....

..... it is all or nothing.

our priority - to get them out of reach of the button. not picking fights with those who would defend the shared common ground.

just sharing a thought.

Just finished nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a 's broken money. What an amazing book! Learnt so much . Now the past 15-20 years of events in the US make so much more sense to me.

if you haven't read 'creature from jekyll island' yet - that will put the last 100 years in perspective.

bitcoin is money and money only. it is not designed for anything else, nor capable without potential destruction of the protocol all have been defending.

ethereum, cardano et al have their own place too. they can if they govern themselves appropriately be the engine of industry. if tokens are the method of intermediary exchange by agreement - then so be it.

ultimately everything settles in bitcoin. the only truly hard money.

that said, it is not there yet. it still needs to manage scaling and overcome miner centralisation.

if wiser heads than mine can bring these issues to the table and negotiate in an adult manner, i am sure the world will be a much better place for it.
