More on central vs decentral
Continuing with the Sucker Filter of bitcoin. Another obviously fraudulent claim is privacy. Running all of your transactions through NSA is not the ideal way to preserve privacy. NSA is a SPY AGENCY which knows better than anyone else how to break cryptography and bust through software limitations. Even more obviously, the transactions themselves can…

Finally a realistic fable
I’m constantly hammering on the permanence of status and caste and popularity. Meritocracy is a cruel fraud, and most of our myths and stories are designed to ruin unpopular and low-status people. Reprint on the theme: = = = = = START REPRINT: All human traits and talents and tendencies are innate and permanent. Some…
