Oddbean new post about login | logout the word right is only in the constitution once is in the ART 1, section 8. clause 8 what it does is gives authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries
i love Abraham Lincoln's description of this he said: this clause, this word, “right” provided the fuel of interest (self-interest) to the fire of genius, INVENTION.
so now you get to own it
securing this natural right of ownership provided incentives and created a new way to distribute resources no longer were resources distributed by violence now they are distributed by ingenuity and hard work
SATOSHI blows my mind he didn’t protect his invention with traditional patent rights he released the Bitcoin software as open-source allowing anyone to use, modify and distribute it freely OWN IT bitcoin belongs to its community bitcoin belongs to everyone bitcoin belongs to the people
Satoshi has a broader philosophy of INNOVATION not individual, but collective. collective ownership
community access & participation over proprietary control
no country can force him to disclose himself to get credit for his invention
How can I? I’m not spending my own ifcoiner money, and public property taxes. 🥱

Pretending to be a private citizen? That’s a lie and you know, which causes all sorts of paradoxes and blindspots for things to slip through the cracks, walking through borders they would better be screened, but some corrupt public servants have. What do you do?
Make believe is so last elections. https://image.nostr.build/24ee18ebfb7ffc8bbd65ab16fe8eeb71a8bad8f87bcb808bed30aadc27a29804.jpg
