#gift & #spare #time #exchange over #internet? 

is hard to give away without paying again to give it (even for free!)

Even though money is scarce or hard earned, doing something with it after you have it with others, from a distance, is also a pain!

For example cash is easier locally... but far away only crypto... which is perhaps over-cooking the process..

So from a far...? Perhaps and ?

My Note:

I've long since said the "science" of selling debt is working again man, but often that's what science is for (whether you like it or not - but can make the change by not using so often shops that sell money for debt! are a root cause of negativity! 🏦 Literally!... )


vs.
va vs.

Learning / Teaching for the worst usage / Using it against other humans as a trap or lots of little traps? (Even the Capitalist learning and implementation of knowledge?) 

Do you think we humans always get to a certain stage and just naturally from exploring all physics and maths etc that we (humans as Capitalists mainly) "expose" or unfold those "laws of" in our own intelligence, in order to attack their weaknesses...

Kinda of like opening the box and showing the part of how we work (which is neutral)

So we can either respect it (we are imperfect / weak / etc but let's not attack that too much)

Or let's manipulate to make people do what we want / charge them more for it... etc

So knowing how things work is OK....

UNTIL it's a branch or combination of branches like maths in say a Scheme that and use all day for example) that basically weaponises these discoveries (Negative maths for example or simply put "debt creation") in classic Man vs. Man trapping each other again (Mankind using it against each other) like an old style trap but now economic one... (see picture of bear trap)

==================

Was inspired by this below but isn't the total intended meaning...

================

" The object of pure Physic is the unfolding of the laws of the intelligible world [...] "

"The object of pure Mathematic [...] that of unfolding the laws of the human intelligence."

"Attention Economy" for sure,.. But "Lack of Attention Depth" also... 

"Attention Economy" for sure,..

But "Lack of Attention" (depth) on Fediverse also!

"hey you I'm looking for more concrete constructive focus!!"
(That's from me)

The lack of depth on Fediverse could be waaay more on every level (perhaps the lower needs more than specialist) and seed things on every level like a fish frendzy (FRIENDZY) even from the most silliest or backward things *if* being genuine IT WILL GROW CONVERSATION AND THUS MORE...

AND THEN CONTRIBUTE TO HIGHER LEVELS... YES level up indeed....

"Lack of Economy" in Attention means these users will either not use platform and stagnate AND also be gobbled up by mainstream Guardian, CBNC, BBC, CBB'S, BBCBCCBCBBCBS, BBSBSBSBBSSS, ETC !!!

(THOSE THAT WILL SUPPLY THEM FISH CAKES (OR FISH FOOD, WHATEVER)... AND WILL SERVE / USE THEM INSTEAD...

We have to make our own economy here (in all the meaning: financial / giving for the attention seeking / eventually contributing)

We need them / you to sharpen our principle's and focus here

Or else get taken the fuck over / ran the fuck over!

"You're disappointed in you!"... (sometimes) 

It's a play on the whole phrase "We are disappointed in you..."

Often used by parents or in conversation referencing society or social groups larger than one's self and people we've never met!

This phrase and image I thought went well as the "You're..." modification and perspective of the many faces as like each of your own internal other personality or critical character disappointed on every little thing and expecting too much.

One character might be picky about this, the other about that, etc)

:bomberman: And that's why you need me! [THE PUNCH LINE TO THE WHOLE POST AND BASIC EDIT OF THE PHRASE!!] 💣

💥 To help you realise the balance AND actually you're doing pretty good (Brodie you too!). and the expecting "too much" from imperfect is a kind of to be reduce! Mission impossible there for any ! We're imperfect - get used to it while doing / learning.

Perhaps I'm the over smiley friend that look like I'm selling something, but friend a nonetheless... let me introduce myself... I'm online as ! Have a nice day!

Logic of Profit and Logic of Recycling are often 2 different things 

So you might get what you wanted (cleaned bin) it wasn't necessarily what you need to be done (be taken care of or re-made cheaper) and */might/* also be burnt the same as you would in your garden but elsewhere at greater cost to even more.

You won't even get big bonfire's night in the village to burn all the excess stuff... Somebody else gets that lumping it all elsewhere faaar away...

Logic of and Logic of are often 2 different things. :ablobwink:

Money loses about X% per year... I'm having a look... 

We know "Inflation" is added from what Banks / Government say,,, but is it just Inflation at 2/3%?

Dollar loses about 2% a year
- Mike Adams Health Ranger
(will try find source, I could be wrong so this post is just to confirm we're losing...)

Pictures suggest dollar halves ever 20yrs but could be more not just as "Inflation" but added profit pricing to make "effective purchasing power" even more different as you try to purchase anything big... There are laws to keep bread etc mostly ok (to keep us alive just about) but not for real money makers:

like rent, housing, fuel, heating, gas etc which can sky rocket AT ANY TIME:

As we saw in 2023 winter prices with BritishGas "profits" amazingly high suddenly checkmating people, (this is a bit of speculation forgive me but probably not always relative-to-war prices and just pure profit happened many times in at least!)

Are you building for the wrong people / person?... 

...at home / job / local bubble,,, ?

Ask yourself...

It's a regular occurrence and question I have written myself in puzzling 💠 things...

Is there real democracy and control given? Atmosphere good? Can you change it, even if exit is a last backup plan (but not running away always first?)

Doing for right people is important.

My notes before reflected when I needed to seek better company of friends or even parents - not that they are bad JUST THEY ARE NOWHERE NEAR... So sometimes that involves moving, not always since there is internet...

But eventually in physical proximity with better / real / inspiring people even if short-term - try for long-term worming your way in mutually!

*Lynn Conway* RIP 2024
...more info / story...
=======================

woman

Lynn developed "generalized dynamic instruction dispatch" for IBM in 1966.

2 years later she was kicked out, just after Robert Tomasulo published the "Tomasulo Algorithm" for out-of-order execution of floating point instructions, utilizing Lynn's work.

Everyone knows Tomasulo (and he did great work, mind you!), but no-one knows Lynn.

Later, in technical compsci, you may stumble upon highly integrated circuits, everyone there knows but not the inventor, our dear Dr. Conway.

Her story, her struggle against IBM who took decades to apologize to her for her mistreatment. She transitioned in darker times and pioneered not "only" in compsci. She was what many would call "greater than life". She died early Jun 2024.

Today let's remember Lynn 🏳️‍⚧️
Today and tomorrow we fight on ✊
See also: Talk on Wikipedia: Out-of-order execution
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Out

The name of Conway is usually dropped and both concepts (register renaming etc. and multiple-issue) subsumed under one, effectively erasing Conway's work. If it isn't then multiple-issue is often erroneously attributed to Yale Patt.

People's own mistrust IS THE BASIC CAUSE of problems... 

SCARED? Yes we all are... but

People's own mistrust IS THE BASIC CAUSE for why we are not working more together over the net or not.
The worse case is claiming "strangers" without making effort to make friends (friends were strangers once or stranger = friends after getting to know them!)

Even if 100% were good here (everywhere or just your instance or some Federated tab... ) still you wouldn't know how to make friends / accept imperfections / to share with others and might claim the shadows are watching rather than fighting forward either to see if that's even the case or just guard up punching at things together to make some progress even expecting problems as building up resilience, experience, humanity, logic.... one big

(pardon the F word at the end but or For the F-in Way!)

Much respect to you and get in touch and let's prove me wrong for a change! Happy to do stuff for / for you too.
