Summer of Protocols

So… TIL, the printing press actually served Catholic Church corruption before it served the Protestant reformation. Apparently in the 67 years between the Gutenberg press printing the Bible (1450s) and Martin Luther’s 95 theses (1517) triggering the pamphlet wars, a significant use of the printing press was mass producing standardized indulgence certificates, with fill-in-the-blank details. It allowed the church to efficiently tokenize forgiveness for sins. One of the few surviving copies of printed indulgences is at Princeton.

The indulgence is basically a subprime-soul mortgage/memecoin. The theological galaxy brain theory is that Jesus and other saints with their good works created a “treasury of merits” against which the sins of lesser souls could be offset. For a price.

Climate credits are too close to real to be analogized to indulgences but you could imagine tokenizing Native American land acknowledgments.  Stuff close to that does happen PNW. This would be the farcical implementation of my “bloodcoin” idea from 2018. Which was intended mostly as a provocation rather than a serious proposal. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ow43pFm9GLQ

The state of the trenches is abysmal right now, disgusting levels of crime and greed. We need better tools and better token design that aligns stakeholders longer-term. We can and must do better.

having CT blindly ape into all the presales so they can dump on retail isn’t bringing the world onchain lol

Nobody has encountered an explosive daisy and lived to tell the tale.

My working assumption is that we are lurching towards a major depression on the scale of the Great Depression, and it will be under these conditions capital eliminates white collar labor with AI. Unclear the timeline or the best positioning for this; the safest move is just get used to having less, have enough liquidity to deploy during max fear while still living

I thought red would have felt warmer in summer but I didn't think about the equator.

Just as much as we see in others we have in ourselves.

looking back i think doing a handful of PRs on hubble and understanding that code had a greater ROI than a 4 year CS degree

Superb overview of the China :: Taiwan situation. Especially helpful for understanding the complexities involved with an amphibious invasion, and the actual strategic implications of TSMC.
