@BGrucela Czy według tych szacunków będzie 10 frakcji? ;)

@angela_walch Greed kills most values, but crypocurrency bros stealing the word "cypherpunk" was always cringe. Public ledgers and pyramid schemes are not punk, regardless of any vague historical connection.

@littmath Of course, the Pythagorean view dominates some circles because it's easier and fits our cultural context, but it's very flawed.

[Eva Infeld (find me on better networks already) @evainfeld]

@littmath That'd not actually true. In mathematics, everything is defined by conditions - even what we think of as "objects. " A circle is a condition on points etc. A set is empty if the defining condition is never satisfied. And there are many such conditions.

@tracewoodgrains "Rotational numbers" is terrible. I learned imaginary numbers when I was 6 - you really think a 6 year old would respond to a word like that? 🙄

This kind of thinking limits who will ever resonate with mathematics to the same people who can somehow read long, dry manuals.

Hey man, I'm gonna be honest. I get that it's possible that you're that stupid, but I'm not.

@punk6052 Glad there's some life still. :) I've been really enjoying Mastodon for the tech stuff these days tbh. Not much going on at BlueSky for me, even though their protocol design is dope af.

@rop_g There obviously have to be mechanisms that actively counteract that at all levels. You know me better than to think I'd propose a libertarian approach and expect it to bring freedom. ;)

[Eva Infeld (find me on better networks already) @evainfeld]

There are so many good people in the world, but it's the bad ones that pursue power. That's how we ended up with today's world.

The only answer is to build a world where no person can have power over another.

[Eva Infeld (find me on better networks already) @evainfeld]

@manticlops Yes, I agree.

[Eva Infeld (find me on better networks already) @evainfeld]

@GhostCoase And he fetishizes primitivism so hard it led him to the whole Pol Pot embarrassment 🙄

[Eva Infeld (find me on better networks already) @evainfeld]

This is so incredibly cool.

Also, imagine the crackdown if drug dealers started carrying pirate medicine. In related news, lemme pitch a show far superior to Breaking Bad.

Anarchist collective teach people how to make pirated versions of expensive pharma drugs using precursor ingredients. "A course of Solvadi, the drug by Gilead that cures Hepatitis C, costs $83,000. We made it for $70." https://t.co/IQyBlCVNkx

@EllaPalmes Always correct to your academic title, but gently. They probably just don't know how it works yet. A first generation student might get particularly embarrassed about it.

[Eva Infeld (find me on better networks already) @evainfeld]

@SteveWiesnerSMB Stagnating or falling net profits does NOT imply there's no price gouging. The other scenario is that there is, in fact, price gouging but more of the acquired products are going unsold.

Come on @CJHandmer I expect better from you.

[Edward Snowden @Snowden]

The DNC is the only reason you're not currently enjoying a second-term Sanders and a sane Supreme Court.

[Eva Infeld (find me on better networks already) @evainfeld]

@_TomHoward Well now I know how it feels to agree with Peter Thiel on something. Kinda dirty. 😂

I still can't get over how bad AI has become. And this is coming from a computer scientist who spent over a decade studying and programming AI.

I fucking LOVE AI, but here are 10 reasons I absolutely fucking hate it now, a 🧵 ...

[Eva Infeld (find me on better networks already) @evainfeld]

@david415 Yeah that's an easy one - there's zero cypherpunk values in most of the cryptocurrency world, with the exception of some of the privacy side.

Public ledgers and pyramid schemes are in fact the opposite. Crypto bros calling themselves cypherpunks are so cringe.
