A curious, creative, & peculiar emporium of thought & expression
“The man who produces while others dispose of his product is a slave.” Ayn Rand image
“When you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - When you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - When you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don’t protect you against them, but protect them against you - When you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - You may know that your society is doomed” image
“I swear—by my life and my love of it—that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.” — John Galt image
If instead of trying to change the people and the systems and we focused on changing the incentive, could this lead to a more peaceful world?
Taxing unrealized gains. A great way to usher in “you will own nothing and be happy.”
No more Mutiny. What other #lightning wallets can I connect to nostr clients easily? Don’t want to use alby.
“Modern man thinks he loses something—time—when he does not do things quickly. Yet he does not know what to do with the time he gains—except kill it.” Erich Fromm image
Wisdom is created when we take other’s ideas, put them to practice in our own life, then form our own knowledge set from our experience.
Best way to obfuscate kyc’d #bitcoin ? Onchain->lightning (burner)->fedi->onchain?
The more I learn the more I realize that I understand less than I thought.
Pointed criticism is useful even if it is in a negative tone. But, if the criticism is constantly in a negative tone it is best to ignore(if it is directed at you) or question yourself (if you are the one criticizing)
I believe nostr needs more thoughts that help people learn how to live. Less “this is the way, NOSTR only” More, this thought is useful, so I want to check out NOSTR to see if there are more of them. image
