Every actual seven-figure loss of human life in history was caused by one of two things: nature or extreme concentration of political power.

@ArtofOrb “All of the choices will become public because that's the way that states work. That's the logic, is to expand. *Which is why he wanted private groups.*” Zcash is a private, voluntary group, that constitutes its own decision process, and that's part of how it resists the state.

Was trying to figure out why "Following" was weirdly only showing me a small selection of what I knew must be written, and found yet another default I didn't ask for. Gotta go back to reading only from "lists".

I want a futurism that feels like this. Like we've mastered nature and mastered the human-scale longed for ideals. Not like flying plastic or plants on top of glass-plastic

Effective Altruism is the natural enemy of the left and right because the right doesn't believe in altruism and the left doesn't believe in effectiveness.

@albertwenger Good points. Due to the AI flavor, you may have skimmed over the parts where @vgr explains and defends the contents of the diagrams…

Huh! This is an excellent essay by Venkatesh Rao. It is excellent in historical detail, analyses of the current social/business/intellectual/political structure, and in his clarion call for pluralism. contraptions.venkateshrao.com/p/ea-safety HT Tracy Harms

A US-based investigation of Covid origins should at minimum: 📧 Access all communications and data shared between the Wuhan Institute of Virology and US/international partners including but not limited to the EcoHealth Alliance (now shut down) and University of North Carolina 🧪 Assemble a team of scientists to curate and re-analyze relevant data and methodology e.g. relating to early cases, SC2 and close relative sequences, market and other animal/human sampling efforts 🕵️‍♀️ Evaluate the full range of intel available to US and its allies e.g. Germany's BND assessed lab origin with 80-95% certainty, US doctors in Wuhan said they heard of novel respiratory disease in mid Dec 2019, US intel says military was engaged in coronavirus research at the WIV, pangolin virus samples were sent there, and WIV staff were ill with possibly Covid in Nov 2019 📒 Search funding agencies, journals, databases and even commercial suppliers in the US and its allies for relevant proposals, reports, manuscripts, data entries, purchases And ideally be bipartisan and even international 🌏 in nature, appointing investigators and scientists with a wide range of starting points, so that its findings are not easily politicized. All of this could've been started in 2020 but here we are almost 7 years later with no such investigation in sight for a pandemic that harmed billions of people, killed at least 15 million people, caused an estimated $16 trillion in economic loss to the US alone, and pushed tens of millions of people around the world back into poverty and debt. Without a bipartisan or international consensus on how the pandemic most likely happened, little has been done to prevent it happening all over again. If Covid can be considered a "trigger event" to warn the world of worse bio-catastrophes, there hasn't been any meaningful course correction.

African builders are helping shape the next chapter of Zcash. And it’s happening on the ground. From developer residencies and education programs to node infrastructure and community onboarding, teams across Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, and beyond are making privacy-focused digital money more accessible. They’re teaching, building, onboarding, and creating the local communities that every strong ecosystem needs. This is what real ecosystem growth looks like. Who’s an African Zcash builder, educator, or project we should spotlight next?

Be wary of anyone who has black and white thinking. If they think things are excellent or terrible and rarely express an opinion in the middle: run away. Be wary of anyone who comes on too strong. What starts fast ends fast. Often if they love you at first sight they are interacting with a hallucination of you. That hallucination can change from hot to cold without you doing anything. Be wary of anyone where you feel bad about yourself after hanging out with them. This doesn't mean they challenge you, that's fine. It's more like don't actually see you and you are just a prop in their show.
