Imagine believing "the experts" in 2020.

The world needs the fruits of love more than it needs the fruits of your career.
The American Left wants to elect a Pope, not a president.
Speaking the truth is an act of love.
Votes cast people.
Nearly all libertarian academics are irrelevant. Their goal is to acquire prestige in a corrupt system that produces incompetent minds.
The future belongs to the irreverent.
The need to maintain credibility prevents people from thinking.
The world needs more speculative armchair non-empirical non-peer-reviewed theorizing.
Humans are animated by their ideas, most of which are subconscious.
Human action flows with the flow of information.
The highest-level games are information games. It's all about proximity to truth.
On-chain data doesn't run into a bandwidth problem; it fixes the bandwidth problem.
The lack of granular and precise pricing of data is what causes the bandwidth problem. Existing internet infrastructure doesn't solve it. Bitcoin does.
Nothing seems to make people more irrational than the belief in their own moral superiority.
It makes them convinced they don't need to listen to another's perspective. So, they don't even begin the intellectual process.
In practice, those who insist on "empirical" methods tend to be the most dogmatic of rationalists.
A 1-hr podcast archived and served from the blockchain. Episode 99 of Patterson in Pursuit 😀

Looks like fun. I'm game.
Been thinking about on-chain data storage. Came up with the idea of "sub-nodes." Could this work?

We let our game do the talking.
Numpties.
Now.
Streamanity.
Better than the NBA bubble and all crypto conferences combined.
No masks.
Walmart just hasn't learned yet. Game theory predicts that their 30-day return policy will bankrupt them, since their competitors can just buy a ton of their products and return them frivolously, increasing Walmart's costs to infinity.
Retail is broken.
(In other words, "Why the mathematical mind tends to fail at business")
(And why the BTC developer focus on theoretical risk is a waste of time.)
Yeah, honestly that was a cringe moment.
Nash equilibrium means that every actor believes any deviation from strategy will result in them being worse off, so they're locked in.
Which is about the most unrealistic situation imaginable in the crypto market
"Game theory" is the synonym for "strategy" when you want to sound smart and math-y.
Most people have no idea how poorly mathematics explains the world.
So, you can mystify people and pretend like you have a crystal ball by appealing to "game theory."
And if the announcement doesn't happen soon, we'll be releasing a paper and patent on it next year!

AlphaZero can learn chess to such a high level because it fails earnestly.
If you were to watch AlphaZero training from the beginning, you would see the worst games of chess ever played. No talent.
But no embarrassment, either. So, it kept learning...
He even capitalized Truth.
Blasphemy.
Debate with Paul Sztorc now up on Streamanity !
Upcoming conversation with @13060 tomorrow about BTC versus the big-block Bitcoins. We'll be live at 1pm Eastern.
The last time we were scheduled to debate, the BCH mob got me deplatformed, but this time they'll have no such luck!
Clearly, the existence of Lions fans demonstrate that there is not a universal desire for life over death.
