by 2009 it was clear - not only letting a single nation control the reserve currency afforded them tremendous advantage, it also put the global monetary system at great peril. The obvious choice was to either go back to gold standard; or to have a ledger NOT controlled by a single nation - an entity or not even an individual. While many attempted to solve this hard problem, the best design came from Satoshi aka bitcoin. The revelation, however, was - that simple ledger needed more energy to maintain itself than digging out all the gold. At the end - humans realized it wasn't about bitcoin or gold. It was the simple truth that if we build something - same amount of energy must be put aside to hold its value - value is half of everything
AGI is preemptive. That is how we don't fall in walk and then get up to walk again at every step ! AI is reactive - it needs a prompt for everything. The question is how do we preempt so good - the answer is we are all connected - not like internet. We are connected like a blockchain - we sync in like nodes - may be we do that when we are slept
rules are made by humans - code implements the rules - things would get better when more informed people make rules - ones with AI running in their brains
Combining match and enums is useful in many situations. You’ll see this pattern a lot in Rust code: match against an enum, bind a variable to the data inside, and then execute code based on it. It’s a bit tricky at first, but once you get used to it, you’ll wish you had it in all languages. It’s consistently a user favorite - The Book of Rust
The mishap leads to a systemic survival instinct, missing thus far in the new. They had probably presumed the survival was ensured by the old. At the prospect of baton being passed to them, the new realizes their struggle was never for the good or bad (of the society), it was for them(selves) - to understand who they are. Their situation is different from their olds. Their new ideas are not a solution for the old(er) problems, they are the plumbing for the new order. They must account for the stability of the new regime
Satoshi solved only half of the problem of digital cash system - the biggest one. He created an immutable public ledger of assets against which large asset holders may issues cash - for example companies can hold bitcoin on treasury to issue equity. Countries may issue currencies. It was important to have this ledger public so that anyone may be able to verify how much dilution baked into equity or currencies. He left it for the asset holders to decide the implementation of their cash systems based on location in space and situation in time for cash can never be scarce or fixed in nature - only assets can. In the process he created an apex asset for human race and digital beings to follow.

It must be pretty darn valuable, if you want it copied on 30 thousand nodes and protected by 600 exahashes of raw power..... The reason #bitcoin succeeds is it focuses on high value - it leaves the trivial things out
Narratives are the storage of information expressed in fashion that captures human attention. Think of them as a battery for information. The way a battery stores electrical energy between a cathode and an anode, a narrative thrives between a hero and a villain. Morality aside - both are equally important to make the narrative worth reading. A good narrative does as much justice to a villain as a hero to make sure information reaches both sides of the aisle. As a matter of fact, the hero and a villain are two sides of the coin.
Trying out nostr-commander-tui. It lets me open a command in vim. When the file is saved, the contents of the file execute as command. The good thing is now I can type this entire note in vim and publish when I save and exit the file.
Question is can I break the lines when I am typing the note - let us check
