Oddbean new post about login | logout I would challenge that it was not his idea. He implemented it in a certain way. Let's see where this can go. For a start, it probably would be helpful to copy Wikipedia - as bad as many find it in some details. There is no reason to start a wikifreedia from scratch. https://wikifreedia.xyz/money
Agree with the first part, as would Twain. Disagree with the second. Plenty of reasons to start these things. Experimentation and exploration, to just name two. https://image.nostr.build/329743881204af5c91451403298b50729ab1e6c935e1d2504e76546e9689a71c.jpg
If there's no such thing as a new idea where did the first idea come from? Turtles all the way down Mr. Twain is it!? Haha what a retard. You could apply the same argument to biological evolution, each new species is just a remix of the old. Yet somehow they magically improve and most stuff alive today does not look like an amoeba. All original information, whether it's genes or memes, comes from the quantum field of the universe. Seth Lloyd explains it very nicely in his book "Programming the Universe". https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programming_the_Universe

What do I do with this? This doesn't display correctly for me. https://nostrcheck.me/media/public/nostrcheck.me_2668061593869239361708798819.webp
I don't argue to not start this project on nostr at all but the data ... Wikipedia is a giant treasure trove of indisputably valuable content that I bet will get copied in by some bot at some point anyway, just to pre-fill the pedia with something to grow from. Why re-invent all that content?
