Nostr protocol already implements the four requirements. Your idea of rating system incentives soft silos, which violates purpose of Nostr (and RSS feeds). You're not helping. View quoted note โ†’

Micro-cultures are also good justification of material abundance. Otherwise society as a system experiences an analog of the second law of thermodynamics, but at higher levels: if material goods are too abundant to a point when they can't provide fittest substrate to higher levels (culture, creativity etc.), these are likely cases (and they often appear as sequential steps historically): 1. Degeneration of individualism and culture. Culture develops simplified fraction for better engagement, but fresh individuals do not realize purpose behind this simplification, these define their entire lifestyle on this culture, they live their entire life as constant "now", they lose motivation in learning and crafting. This leads to fragile cultural landscape. 2. Inadequate wealth and societal inequality (which does not fit real differences in age, experience and intelligence as Pareto optimum). Essential symptom of the previous step as people lose highest "why?" (for exploration of unknown landscape and/or helping others), their lack of highest motivation is compensated by endless competition to "look better than others". 3. Rugged feudalism, brittle civilization. Symptom of the previous step, as an essential exit from "dead horse" system. So I live my life at my own pace and I learn new stuff which does not end in p2p services and tools, and is rooted in individualism (p2p is a set of solutions to the fragility of cyberpunk circus, not what could keep at least myself living for long time).

entropy is a bitch. if you don't adapt to it adequately at all known levels, you lose life.

To continue. "why you don't just pick up traditional and established culture and religion?" Because traditional cultures in their full sense are not good fit for me. Plus they're easily prone to desecration, if not kept in trusted circles (as history has shown many times, which finally rationalized it as "postmodern" meta-meme). I have history of adaptation to them and lost a lot of time and energy, figuring out hidden cues and how I can act with them naturally/in flow state. Especially cultures, which strictly prohibit some essential but positive features of life. This is also why I sometimes fell for left things like auxiliary languages like Esperanto, universal human morale. Because if you have simple contract rules, then you can easily communicate with people of diverse cultures. However, if you don't create art and build micro-culture, you just adapt to this simplified meta-culture, and thus lose sense of yourself, making yourself prone to provocations. It's like the problem of "high cohesion & low coupling vs high coupling vs low cohesion (occurring at different scales)". That's why I love ethos of pantheism. View quoted note โ†’

Still I'm offline most of the week because I learn new stuff and walk in nature, but I want to acknowledge. I am realizing why autistic person needs her/his own micro-culture even if she/he has their own customs. Without your own culture, your customs are just a bunch of prepared "recipes" or patterns which do not systemically answer root "why?", "what is the purpose of that beyond immediate/utilitarian survival (this could happen infinite many times >_<)?", "how to revive interest in life and hobbies in complex crises?". That's why I've revived my interest in constructed languages again. And I found an interesting tool for building conlangs which aggregates words into groups, builds grammar, generates new words with patterns, has quizzes for learnable feedback: . You can download working version for Linux there: #asd #conlang #linux #opensource

What is more accurate term than "ratmen" to people, who are willing even to nuke entire world just to keep you in poverty and misery forever with respect to their antique barbarian worldview?

I has been so tired recently that I could not even manage my own Nostr relays on regular basis ๐Ÿ˜ญ๏ธ Still, I am alive. I am not surprised by any crisis. Many people from upper levels of hierarchy don't have any clue how to do business, not even what is purpose of it. They keep propagandizing more AI while lacking proper integration of it, because they are stuck into "optimize one variable every time at any costs, only one layer matters" paradigm. When entropic base is inflated relatively to higher levels of reality, it just leads to fracture of system into simpler conscious entities which adapt independently in more possibility space (this is what's meta of decentralization epoch, I think). Some of them recombinate into higher conscious entities, some continue collapse, some remain the same. So I keep going with my life as I see it, as I want it.

I love Nostr for its slower pace of communication, which is already set when you should sign events before sending them. Even a bit slower than in old forums with their lack of true real-time notifications #nostr #slowlife

Spiral dynamics seems another Maslow's pyramid for neurotypical individuals, but covered into evolutionism. I think, main problems with it are: 1. What is "definition of done" for each level of complexity until it can leverage to new level of complexity? What if previous "levels" is developed for more after new level reaches its local maxima? For example, "cultural" level can evolve while lacking sufficient medication (for example, individual rituals and languages), autism does not totally block from integration into society. Thus properties from very different levels of complexity may be integrated at different stages of life. 2. Worldview complexity is not cognitive and functional complexities. The former may be ahead of the latter and vice versa. In beginning of 2010s I had deterministic worldview while most of knowledge and tools were experiential leveraged by magical thinking, not even complex logic was involved. Since these unresolved problems of any hierarchical foundation I've come to Platonism-like foundation for worldview with different abstract "elements".

That's how the New Renaissance starts from early Y2K Medieval with fading "cyberpunk". For me decentralization is a whole mindset. There are also nanoboards, stg, over-exploitation of hyper-centralized resources if you should use them for some purpose (like work), async remote work culture. What started as simple independent life individualism, it then evolves in more complex/progressive way. This does not happen suddenly one day though, this is long-term continuous trend. And it's not always about one real variable. View quoted note โ†’
