Physics is the control mechanism. Bitcoin is thermodynamically sound money.

It's funny. I was thinking how could anyone be both a physicist and a communist/socialist/ whatever. It just seems obvious to me that the they are incompatible both in terms of money/energy... General logic. The universe knows there's no such thing as a free lunch. Why do people put knowledge like that in a box and not see the thread that is woven into reality? Idk. These are just my thoughts. I'm just a chimp with a meat computer.

My guess is it is similar to the way solar systems organize themselves so that all the planets are going the same direction. There was a slightly preferred direction in the beginning and the planets that were going the wrong way got eliminated and reintegrated into the preferred direction. Spontaneous order whispers something. I just am too much a chimp to understand.

Only because the base can move.

I mean, yes... but not great illustration... 😹 Try the same experience with each metronome set at a different BPM 😅 ( nostr:nprofile1qqsxnj24dukr0mekvaxzezqlnt3dqayt3njxf9ttx047urhuz05je2gpz4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wchsz9thwden5te0wfjkccte9ejxzmt4wvhxjme0qythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2ap00mzkhe )

this is what I see

ugh. but why does humanity make things so hard!? the solution is so simple and elegant - balance the world on a 2x4 itself balanced on two empty beer cans. how dumb are we to have overlooked that forever.

People gonna people

Yes, you're right, and if you look at the end of the video, one of the metronomes gets bored and even starts to de-sync a bit 😉 Ah, entropy ! And tuning... yup.

Yes of course. The conditions must be correctly set (which is a whole other philosophical discussion). And yes the universe is on a course towards total entropy. Yet, there are still highly complex self organizing systems that occur in the meantime during our long march towards the heat death of the universe! Is that what you wanted to hear your lousy pessimists!? Haha. I'm only kidding of course. Cheers.

Tempted to draw paralels between "correctly" setting parameters and the underlying intention of regulations. But i guess we've already determined that the illustration is defeating the purpose of ita contexr 😅 i believe firnly in self organizing systems though. But I don't think humanity is self-organizing: we're flock animals and thus we organize together. This is an important nuance, because in such context, freedom can only exist responsibly: if my freedoms impede on yours, there no longer is freedom, but tirany. A paradox of sorts. Which is an optimistic thing: Paradoxes arrise where the observer is limited by their senses and/or their understanding of the universe. It is not unlikely that new ideas will emerge that may help us untangle the paradox.
