No such thing as immaculate conception. I can make the same argument that bitcoin will never be the seventh blockchain and because of that it will never be as good. Same bs argument, different number. Hash functions can be used for different purposes...bitcoin wastes energy for security that can be purchased much cheaper. Physics already defines everything we interact with so...anything you build based on the rules of this world is by definition already had its physics defined. You are drowning in maxi strawmen. Your are frustrated because they don't see the truth but you are so buried you don't which way is up anymore anyway. I can't stop a black hole... but that doesn't stop a universe from existing outside of it. Heck it doesn't even stop multiple black holes from existing. You are speaking in maxi only paradigm. No wonder you are lost.

All crypto, including bitcoin, is fiat."Defining the physics" doesn't change that. If anything it just makes the physics fiat as well. Rules without rulers run by human hardware is a decentralized gov. and money by gov. decree is fiat. 🤷

Technology creates community. Always has. Agriculture, tools, science. Politics is downstream from culture but what people fail to add is that culture is downstream from technology. We build things and then create a story around then in order to integrate them and pretend that culture created them. This is why so many people's last names stem from old work occupations. Society is only interested in you as far as your are useful to it. Technology is extremely useful and a good technology will force society to lie to itself and change just to adopt it. Automation will do the same thing. You'll see people who were anti communism go full entitlement as soon as there is no need for their labor anymore.

You started with the tone the moment you implied my replies were insincere and started straw manning everything I said instead of taking it at face value. Since you are engaging in an actual topic let's put that in the past.
I explained extensively how I think it applies but maybe you thought I meant something else entirely so I will try again. Dunbar applies here because I have come to believe based on how humans operate and how they are breaking down in situations above Dunbar's number, especially due to things like depression and anxiety, that a once useful mechanism of comparison used to find your place and status is now constantly giving you negative feedback and causing you to check out instead of compete or participate. The idea here is that as you get your circle back to something approximating your Dunbar number, the mechanism will become helpful again. It's not so much about overcoming and refusing comparison (something you cannot stop because your brain chemically does it anyway) it's about being in the correct environment for the mechanism to work properly. It's like blaming the teeth on a gear for not driving your car when you put the gear on the hood instead of the transmission. The teeth on the gear only work inside the transmission. They don't need to be removed or ignored, they need to be in the right environment. Being closer to Dunbar's number is the right environment. It's not the comparisons (teeth) that are the problem, it's their location.

Capitalism is eventually the best form of communism. It prices labor out of the market until everything is automated and can be created for almost free. The issue is...are we responsible enough to have that power or will we horde it to a few owners?

2024-12-30 18:16:21 UTC

If Elon cared about free speech he would have created a decentralized platform for it that no one could control. Instead he created a walled garden that mimicked the other social networks and banked on political upheaval that he himself could influence through his own platform. He doesn't care who wins so long as he gets to build rockets on cheap labor and the left was criticizing him for not treating employees right. Given the power we now see how he acts. People who pay him get to censor others and people who point out flaws in his arguments get ridiculed and silenced. The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy once my enemy is defeated. Both sides have to destroy each other or we all lose.

It's super antagonistic and egocentric to start talking to someone as if they haven't given you everything they meant while you strawman what you think they mean and accuse them of things. And after all that say something trite like "I'm not sure you are even interested in real conversation". Umm. okay. I pretty much explained my position and when I say no it's not zero sum you just repeat yourself instead of trying to understand how it's not. How am I not being super patient with you while you act condescending? How is that not being conversational? You can't be serious. Your problem isn't comparison. Your problem is you think you are better than people who might have a different perspective than you and you hide behind your insecurities with an air of superiority.
What happens when you come across someone with no named theories? Or what happens when you come across a scammer that just makes up named theories and writes books about them? You are trying to pigeon hole me. That's the data point you are interested in. That why I refuse to name drop. I list one unapproved name and you will discredit. You already tried to say I was making this political and I have no idea why. We should be able to talk about ideas on their own. Where they came from doesn't matter to me, their merit does.

Adding ageism on top of authority fallacy is not an argument. Explain why it's zero sum. Explain why comparison has to be avoided especially in a social heirarchy and explain why the examples I gave are wrong, or I'm going to resign you to saying whatever you want to say with no real argument. So far I haven't heard anything that makes any sense besides "it makes me feel bad"...which is just evidence that you feel bad. I'm okay with that. I just thought it was a interesting subject and thought your original post was missing a lot of information when it comes to social comparisons.

Umm...if you are equating the serotonin mechanism to zero sum then you don't get what it's for and I can't really explain past that. You don't lean into anything. It's built into your head. You literally cannot not do it. I'm not interested in why you are straw manning things I'm not saying. If I don't adhere to your "anything in the mind that's a serotonin mechanism is zero sum" there really isn't anything left to say besides you are wrong and learn more about it. 🤷

What political lines? Everything is political if you want it to be. That has nothing to do with what I'm saying. Experts are the problem. Results are what matter. Experts dislike results that disagree with their books. Books are only as good as the words written in them. This reverence for some sort of authoritative source of knowledge doesn't impress me. What is your thesis? Why doesn't it hold up to anything I said without straw manning? That's what you should be questioning. Not, "where did you get your information." That should be a red flag that what you know might not be what you know it might just be what you've been sold.

No, it's a fallacious argument from authority. I gave you the information or at least enough cursory knowledge to look up more on your own if in fact you think I don't know what I'm saying. Information doesn't require an authoritative source. It just exists and it's true or not. It's not up to me to say names you like till you accept facts as facts. Test them yourself.

It's not one place. That's what I'm trying to say. It's a lifetime of experience. Being raised in religion. Having people lie to me. Watching their actions. Listening to people tell stories of abuse. Watching family members and friends interact. Listening to theories that do and don't make sense. I don't wholesale believe anyone. It's all piecemeal. Listening to professors explain how the brain works. How anti depressant meds work by modifying serotonin uptake. Lectures on microtubules and quantum consciousness. It's too much stuff. I just distilled it down because it's apparent to me that people think you can fix your brain without changing your environment. You brain is part of the environment. Change your environment change your mind. Get off of social media. Don't compare yourself to people you will never interact with. If you feel inadequate find something you are adequate at and be the best in your group at it. This is everything from national geographic, all the way to Alex Jones. I find the pieces that make sense and I put them together. Removing yourself from ever competing or comparing at all is not good. It's a type of egotism. It's also ignorance of your place in your group. You end up stepping on people's toes or hurting yourself or them because you are clueless of how you relate. Comparison is useful and it's built into your brain at a chemical level. You don't remove it or get over it, you just become delusional.

If by study you mean read approved books or go to school, no. If you mean understand religion, philosophy and psychology through childhood, experience and story and philosophical teachings and reading and watching videos online then sure. I'm getting the impression here that if I haven't read what you've read you are very exclusive of what you are willing to listen to. I notice how you talk in name drop and I talk in ideas. You even talk in named ideas and strawman them. "zero sum" is one example. If it isn't named or doesn't have an author you approve of them you aren't very receptive and that's very limiting imo. I think I've said enough to get my point across regardless of whether I met your approved reading quota. This is all based on an argument from authority which is a logical fallacy. It's doesn't automatically make you wrong or something but it's not great for communicating ideas. You seem to be more receptive to poetry but I find that to be manipulative so I don't do it.

I'm into all of them. What they will teach is to not be jealous, stop thinking about yourself so much, and to try to take care of your fellow man and actually put them ahead of yourself. You can't do that without comparison. If you can help others you are actually making them better off than you in a lot of cases...if your goal is to ignore that comparison then you don't know if you've done any good at all. I would say service to others is the number one thing taught by all of those. They don't decry comparison at all. Actually if anything they say compare yourself to God or an ultimate ideal, find yourself lacking and do your best to help everyone else around you.

He's saying it's a culture. An American culture. But it's not. It's all cultures. Everywhere. All the time. Because it's a reward mechanism for finding your place in your tribe that's built into your head and you are trying to make it irrelevant and will ultimately fail at the task. That part of the brain is what builds all cultures. The problem isn't with American culture. It's with the idea that you can eliminate a serotonin based reward mechanism from your brain and that by doing so, living as if you have 8 billion friends is suddenly possible. It's not. Dunbar's number is a real thing. It exists for a reason. I'm not talking about zero sum survival or anything like that. I'm talking about a social heirarchy that's built into your brain to help you recognize your place in the world. Ignoring it will get you into a lot of trouble. Using it to find your place in 8 billion people is a losing game. Using it to find your place in a community of about 150-500 people works most of the time. Modern technology has wrecked our idea of who we are and where our place is. That doesn't suddenly make comparison and bad mechanism. It means we need to limit who we compare ourselves to to people that we will actually interact with in person day to day and find a way to fit in with them.

I never said anything about "zero sum" or anything like that. All I've repeatedly tried to get across is that you are attempting to live in a way your brain is not wired for and you think if you ignore it it will go away. It's there for a reason. Once you realize the reason is finding your place in a social heirarchy and that our current social system is too expansive for most people to find their place in...then you see the solution. It's creating a social circle you fit in and can grow in. Some call it an "echo chamber" or "tribalism". I call it family and community. If you are having a hard time with comparing yourself to others...it's because you aren't living up to your potential or you are comparing yourself to people that are so far out of reach that it's a waste of time. You should be able to compare yourself in a way that's healthy within your tribe instead of trying to convince yourself you don't need to change for the better because comparison in and of itself is evil.

No it doesn't, it involves accepting a valuable place and allowing others to be better than you in their places. Why do you think dolphins swimming better than you doesn't affect you the same way?

That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about a mechanism of the brain that's directly linked to the feeling of well being. If you study psychology it is known that social heirarchy is a real thing you cannot escape. You have to accept the reality and limit your social interaction to a few hundred people. Unfortunately with the advent of social media we are comparing ourselves to the top .000000000001% of the population of the planet constantly. That's the problem. The comparative mechanism is useful and it's dangerous to remove it. It's what keeps you from getting killed by thinking you can take on someone twice your size or not take advice from someone twice as smart. Thinking about yourself all the time is a sure fire way to become miserable. Think about others. Be good at something in your group that no one else is good at...and you will be fine. We were made to live like this.

Some characteristics of the thing are the essence of the thing itself. Ex: silicon chips can only have so many imperfections in order to operate. You can advocate for chips with less imperfections or you can just realize there is a threshold beyond which they are essentially desk weights. Same thing with cryptocurrency. There is a threshold in which all this stuff sorts itself out. You can only sell me a non functional processor so many times before I learn what works and what doesn't. I really don't care the number of imperfections but indirectly I am demanding them.

3.Jack had to distance himself before the inquisition because of all the garbage illegal gov. meddling going on at Twitter and the only one who could buy the company take it private and expose the gov colluding with big tech was Elon.
