a slight misrepresentation of Dr Moore's pedigree.

is this referencing the Nostr unconference in Tokyo?
nym refers to anonymity, or anonymous, and is used to describe a lifestyle that promotes personal privacy and the benefits of anonymity.
nym friendly/first means the conference respects visitors' privacy and desire to remain anonymous, and visitors should be respectful of privacy and put that first when interacting with each other.

economic supply chains, monetary policy, and military action make us all neighbors. we're interconnected. ignoring that solves nothing and ripens you for exploitation (tho IMO that's already happened).
local matters, don't get me wrong, but if you zoom in *right now* you're just pretending your actions don't have the reach they actually possess and externalizing real, tangled, obtuse problems.

2023-09-30 19:07:28

by "communal value" i do not necessarily mean a centralized pool funded by taxation. i mean Earth. the family unit is not equipped to deal with problems on that level, but that's where governments operate.
saying governments should or shouldn't do things while focusing on an insufficient solution to Earth sized problems is not really solving anything.
your hot take is a distraction from the larger grifts. governmental power is here to stay (for better and worse, there are always trade-offs), largely because there are many governments fighting for dominance.
we need to transform governance, not dismiss it.

it seems like you've assumed my position and argued against that, but not answered my question.
in the "non-standard" case of a childless person, what societal structures do you imagine existing that would help that person continue to contribute to their community into old age?
how do we handle and mitigate unequal or fraudulent distribution of a communal pool of value?

2023-09-30 18:06:06

- reply

and if you can't have children for one of the many reasons people can't have children?
i agree there are big problems with governmental social security, but a generalized "friends and family" support structure ignores a lot of the potential problems in the family unit, not to mention problems with world population.

this gets at the original question, but then doesn't answer it. how will it be different?
we *should* be skeptical of Bitcoin related tech. we *should* verify our understanding and dive into the details. we *should* ask the "obvious" questions and and it seems reasonable to expect more than handwaving from the community.

i think it's delusional to just accept the gender life path someone else prescribed to you when you were a baby without further interrogation on your part.
accepting it as anything other than a social lever is batshit crazy.
there's a reason for all the vitriol aimed specifically at transwomen: they've transgressed against "manhood."

"probably won't steal" is more accurate.
you *will* have a channel open with the ACINQ node. is your Phoenix node always online? are you using a watchtower? your own or from a service?
i am not saying ACINQ is going to steal channel balances. they are incentivized to support their customers.
using Phoenix is entering into a banking business partnership with ACINQ. they are making decisions about how to handle your payments, and you are paying them to do so.

2023-09-10 19:25:36

seek out different opinions.
if only to sharpen your arguments, but that's not the main thing. someone else may have already solved your "problems."
but this venture into the unknown is useless without an appropriately tuned critical mind.
