To all the people who take cold storage literally and bury your seed phrase in Antarctica. Do you have anxiety that the ice will melt and your seed phrase will sprout?
I know! Just being silly. I gave up on paleo and eat mostly veggies and meat but also rice, breads, beans. I figure I exercise enough to keep the carbs from wrecking me and it’s cheaper.
Hayek described something similar in Road to Serfdom but didn’t liken it to biology. He more compared socialism to a slow decay by each generation being worse than the one before. Like Orwell’s Animal Farm where the pigs take control but are just as bad if not worse than the humans. It seems like a similar argument to Nietzsche’s to me…
“Happiness and freedom begin with a clear understanding of one principle: Some things are within our control, and some things are not. It is only after you have faced up to this fundamental rule and learned to distinguish between what you can and can’t control that inner tranquility and outer effectiveness become possible.” - Epictetus
