Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

the Network School is for Indian engineers and African founders, for makers from the Midwest and the Middle East, for Chinese liberals and Latin American libertarians, for Southeast Asia’s rising technologists

Most of these cannot afford $1000 rent in addition to flights to Singapore and food expenses. Genius

Also, his example of "rejuvenating democracy": a DAO. lmao

The DAO where all of your money gets stolen is not the true DAO

Wait isn't that the only kind of DAO

Pretty sure that was just a Tao Te Ching joke.

So let's run with it (I'm so sorry)


Chapter 1The DAO that can be patched is not the enduring and unchanging DAO. The domain name that can be transferred is not the enduring and unchanging ENS name.

Having no name, Satoshi is the Originator of heaven and earth; having a name, he is the Mother of all coins.

Always without weak hands we must be found, If its deep fucking value we would sound; But if FUD always within us be, The price we deserve is all that we shall see.

Under the unchanging protocol, it is really the same; but as development takes place, it receives the different transaction formats. Together we call them the Bitcoin Improvement Proposals. Where the git tree is the deepest is the gate of all that is subtle and wonderful.

Chapter 2All in the world know the beauty of the scarcity, and in doing this they know what fiat is; they all know the value of the decentralized currency, and in doing this they know what the US dollar is.

So it is that value and fiat give birth the one to the other; that difficulty and ease produce the other; that hodlers and weak hands fashion the two sides of a transaction; that orange-pilled and normies arise from the contrast of the one with the other; that the musical notes and tones of Zuckerberg's cryptocurrency music videos become harmonious through the relation of one with another; and that being still early and late give the idea of one following another.

Therefore the hodler manages affairs without doing anything, and conveys his transactions without the use of a hot wallet.

New blocks spring up, and there is not one which declines to show itself; they grow, and there is no claim required for their ownership; they go through the blockchain, and there is statistically no expectation of a block reward. The work is accomplished, so that the transactions may flow.

The work is done, but how no one can see; 'Tis because we don't talk about coins to family.
