Since you got answered in downvotes I suspect the answer is "because people will switch languages on you"

The way it has been described to me is that if you always take the same route to work then your cognitive performance goes down. Staying curious and exploring the different routes is hard with relatively few waypoints but then you can zoom into more granular decisions (or out ... to the causes).

I just spent the night dancing. That's what I am mostly passionate about, discovering peer-to-peer and building trust. Hoping to see people participate in the future they want rather than suffering the present that they believe inevitable.

My project datalisp.is about making something useful.

So make the change. If your idea is strong and has gravity then people will follow (clearly the guy who is working hard with no reward is a FOSS developer ;)

Sorry I just read this exchange again and I totally misread your first comment. Tbh I'm a bit tilted at the moment. I'll take a break.

I believe it was kind but the tone does not get across the textification.

Glad to hear your justifications. They are more persuasive than the initial representation.

Thank you for engaging the constructive conversation.. now w.r.t. the power of financial interests, I think it is overestimated and easily shattered but we will just have to see what happens.

Preach yo! the medium is the message.

Sorry but you are full of shit. Centralization is not digitization. Centralization is relying on the use of coercion. It's a /central/ source of truth.

The identity system we've been stuck with since WW1 will finally be replaced with something decentralized and approaching fair thanks to digitization. What we're lacking is the software that gives individuals self sovereignty.

Degrading? Hah! man.. I've prioritized this problem over everything else in my life to the point where it has almost killed me and it has robbed me of everything.. when you are living on the street with 0 money in your pocket and you need to take a shit and the bathroom costs a coin to enter then what do you do? Cause I guess the difference between us and dogs is that you can poo straight into the plastic bag, no need for the intermediate step... Now if I would accept a job creating problems for regular people I'd have north of 100k for sitting in my chair and occasionally pressing a few buttons on my keyboard. But my refusal is absolute, the problem I am working on is important and if no one is willing to pay me for it then that is not my problem (yes it is but it is even more everyones elses problem than it is mine).

It is meant to solve the class of problems (in the computer science sense) that is cryptocurrency. This is because I want a name system where the definitions are given meaning relative to our economic system but where the economics within the network should converge on better incentives (which is why the approach should encompass the space of solutions; so we can find the points in that space which have good tradeoffs w.r.t. reality, our current central currency model systematically produces pollution and the motivation of datalisp is to eventually replace that system with a provably better one).

Am I affected? sr.ht/~ilmu/tala.saman ... I would appreciate knowing so I have time to move and since you (drew) are in this thread this is the expedient way to find out...

Rather than poor theory of mind what about good understanding of economics. The cost of absolutely clear context is too high to bear in many situation, it is often better to get the message across in whatever way works for those who are also in the know.. that way collaboration can cheapen the cost of constructing context. Of course if there is an off-the-shelf context available that you can refer to then there is no communication problem in the first place.

Yeah my grades were terrible but there was this one time that the teacher had to regrade everyone because I spotted something he hadn't seen himself and so my solution was better than the one everyone was repeating by rote memorization.

I always took the elite classes so that stung a lot for all those perfect students.

I don't give a fuck about grades, that system of assessments is cruel and inaccurate. It makes people stupid.
