People don't realize this, but bells are an original mesh network. They kept time, provided warnings, called together people for emergencies, and signalled gatherings and worship.

Growing up I heard real church bells be replaced by speakers. I did not know it at the time, but this was the result of the deterioration of low-time preference mindset.

I lament the passing of bells for too many reasons to list.

This morning I heard a real church bell for the first time in a long time. That's what brought this train of thought to mind.

Do not let your time be wasted with low-time preference slop.
