Question for everyone: what do you think is the best explainer of just what the blockchain is for someone with absolutely zero knowledge of it? For example, when someone asks what it solves in a daily, practical sense, where do you point them?
Honestly, I find it best not to explain. Back at the beginning, we tried explaining bitcoin to lots of people, and what worked best was "magic internet money." Now, depending on their concern, I'd say simply "new internet, try it" or "censorship proof." People use not grok tech.

@isysd hey man how's it going?
Good man, enjoying life! How are you? Have we met, or you're just very friendly? :)
My girlfriend suffers from this hard. Going to share this with her. Thank you!

Today I found out about https://cleanplanet.io and decided to do another garbage cleaning on the mountain. Great workout, great content, and great for the planet. Win win win. Donate to Clean Planet if you appreciate this!
Same shit different continent.
Today I made the first salad from our new #garden. It had cherry tomatoes and garlic greens in olive oil, apple cider vinegar dressing. #health #nutrition #photography

I'm so proud! Ingrid won her duel, and advances to the next round of the show.
Just created my first (through twelfth) NFT! I have to say this was very fun. I plan on making more, even if no one wants to pay my asking prices.
View the whole collection on OpenSea:
Tune in to Telemetro tomorrow at 8:30pm Panama (Central time UTC-5) to see my lovely Ingrid perform as #Madonna! So excited!

I mean being detached from society and feeling unable to develop deep emotional connections with the others and today's world.
“It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.”

That said, individuals are not society. You can still see people and love people individually!

Enjoyed this, it had a nice ambiance. I think we all feel Walter.
I am really enjoying odysee, which is even better than d.tube and way better than youtube!

I couldn't make it to the 4th waterfall the other day, because I took the hard way, and the water was too high. I felt let down, and like I let you viewers down. Today I decided to go back and do it right.
Medium has been censoring me, and it sucks. Use Hive. Use web3.0, not corporate crap.

It's in Kocaeli, Turkey. Loved your video, it feels great to be in such heavenly places right? 😍
Yes! Especially these days with cities and societies going crazy. Nature goes on being beautiful and peaceful. <3

Nice waterfall! Where is it? I made a video visiting 4 today, here in Panama.

This is a lot of nice stuff, except that the implied goal is equal outcomes. I think this is an inherently authoritarian goal. Applied CRT is an excuse for systemic racism against successful cultural groups, i.e. racial quotas in schools and jobs. That's not healthy diversity.
It's not nearly so advanced or serious, but did you ever read Harrison Bergeron? That's the world we're headed towards... Color blindness isn't perfect, but it is better than hyper color focus and overcompensation.

This was one of my favorite grad school readings, if the highlighting doesn't give it away. 😅

Eh, murder is illegal but it still happens. Having laws that are aimed at fixing something doesn't mean the thing gets fixed. Gonna share some text from Delgado's and Stefancic's book. Very illuminating.
Sure, but making new, discriminatory laws doesn't fix it either...

https://www.britannica.com/topic/critical-race-theory "CRT hold that the law ... in the US are inherently racist insofar as they function to create and maintain ... inqualities between whites and non-whites..." Title IX ended this. New discrimination violates IX. Lets heal now.
Sorry, Title VII. And I had to truncate a lot haha. Honestly, I think CRT is well intentioned, but it is too late and too far. Equity is not my goal. It is impossible. Ask Thomas Sowell.
Replying to @ryanstraight (0x5accc93e391328a2a2e4e69b197a6da186a6ec9e)
I'm curious as to how CRT is defined here. I go with Delgado's and Stefancic's 2001 definition from "CRT: An Introduction: "The [CRT] movement is a collection of activists and scholars interested in studying and transforming the relationship among race, racism, and power" (p. 2).

I think that position is definitely in good faith. I'd argue, rather, that ignoring, shunning it actually exacerbates the problem. It needs to be acknowledged, reckoned with, and appreciated for its full weight. Part of what CRT is for, really! My $0.02, anyway. :)
I echo your belief of good faith, and appreciate our respectful discourse. To me CRT and affirmative action are two wrongs trying to make a right. That does not heal, it seeks vengeance. MLK didn't seek reparations, he sought forgiveness and brotherhood.

Small correction that I think is important: <i>biological</i> race doesn't exist, but <i>race as a social construct</i> (and the societal, economic, and cultural impacts thereof) most certainly does.
I agree the social construct exists... but I don't think that matters to my point. Giving the diseased social construct attention and even legal weight does nothing to mitigate it. It makes the whole thing more damaging.
#Race doesn't exist! Stop calling people (even yourself) "black" and "white." Celebrate #diversity, denounce divisiveness.

It's been foggy and rainy, so I haven't been filming my walks. Today, however, I thought, I'd just give some candidate "cloud rain forest" shots!

Tried Minds. Found it to be a cesspool. This write-up is spot-on: https://www.engadget.com/2018-04-20-minds-anti-facebook-crypto-social-network-extreme-content.html Vaccine's safe, insofar as there's no statistically significant danger posed. Everyone that can be needs vax'd.
Thanks for sharing!

Thanks but no thanks to minds dot com :)
OK, no problem dodging the core question... but that just raises another question... what's wrong with minds.com? You don't like the community? Just respectfully curious!

The Mute feature is pretty great. Haven't really seen much of the conspiracy theory and anti-vax/sci/etc here, though (thankfully). The political hashtag having a spoiler mechanic is nice, too (presuming folks use it 😅).
Hi @ryanstraight, I presume you are pro-covid-vax... What do you think about my post linked here:

I'm not generally anti-vax, and I liked primary sources to back up my decision.

I also think this is a let down. Love peeptown and we need some new faces on the top peepers list. Seems like it would be straight forward to add an active in last x months filter.
Right? Well, we can beat them! Followed you. :D

There is no way it contains misinformation, which is certainly not cited by primary sources.
Do not take the red pill. Stay home, wear a mask, even while you're eating.

After a long weekend away, visiting Ingrid, I came back to mountain paradise in Chiriqui. Unfortunately, when I arrived last night, only two out of five chickens were sleeping in their roost.
