Ian Tindale on Nostr: npub1tj4dr…lzh8f npub17jyy6…s4tr7 having said that, I’m personally, myself, ...

having said that, I’m personally, myself, very much of the position that all ideas exist — out there — and we simply access them, or fail to access them yet, or fail to access them properly through misinterpretation or under-reaching or bad photocopying, and that’s kind of why there’d be a “one” knowledge of the thing we have knowledge of rather than each person stores a duplicate copy of that knowledge of whatever aspect we’re referring to

In the cases where a person has horrendously misinterpreted the situation or is laughably incorrect about what they think the truth of the matter is, then yes they do have their own flawed and mutated copy because nobody else shares it so it isn’t ‘out there’ it’s ‘in here’ and they’re the only one with that one instance of batshit daft un-knowledge

In the cases where an entire population ‘knows’ a thing to be true, it’s more as if the canonical master-plan of that knowledge morsel is ‘out there’ rather than in each person, because let’s face it, that’s far cheaper

So given that, I posit that a person can’t ‘have’ a valid idea in the context of owning the idea – the possibility for that valid idea was already out there (statistically) and all it takes is a bunch of people to access it and share the accessing of the idea

Which kind of blows a hole in copyright and patents etc
