Last Notes npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar My first computer was running on windows for 5 years. My second one on macos for 12 years. My third one is the second transitioned to #linux. Fisrt installed kubuntu. Struggled to make everything work (especially wifi and touchpad gestures). Got insecure for adfing many packages and user rights, and fed up by the ui and the multiple layers of information (and forums) to go through. Learnt a lot though. Then started over with #ubuntu, ready to fight. But everything worked like a breeze, no further "manual"/cli action to take. It feels like windows vs. macos on ui and ux.

We need time, freedom, and access to some resources. Conventional school is not only a poor way of answering these needs but an anti-learning tool. #nevent1q…0gmc npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar I dream of a world where schools would be replaced by some kind of resource centers / upgraded libraries / fab labs where kids could just come and use whatever they need whenever they want. npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar What are you talking about?

You might want to be on this map: agartha.one npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Yes it's hard because of the social-political environment. France has -prohibited- required an authotization for it a few years ago, but the hardest thing is the global acceptance of french people that school is necessarily the best choice, making most conversations aout it a dead-end npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar It's not only for the twenties, but way before that. Going deep in exploration and experimentation is what we need from the moment we are born. But instead, we get to be constantly interrupted by other "important" things to do and learn, with the paroxxysm at school. "You want to dive into maths? Ok but now it's history lesson, you'll get on that later, if you overcome the frustration." https://www.joanwestenberg.com/p/forget-finding-yourself-lose-yourself-instead #freechildhood #unschooling npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Yes and gold has not died, but paper gold has.

Progress is a very relative concept. npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar And Cake Wallet 😉 npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Yes. Depending on what is seen as negligible to you. Starting from 0.8% annual and only going down can be seen already as negligible compared to fiat 😄 npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar I understand that with NGU you relate to inflation in purchasing power? This is not incompatible with maths applied to inflation in money supply... You see something wrong in this? npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar It's maths. Fixed emission per block forever makes relative increase of money supply tend against 0 (0%). 157K/18M=0,87% In ten years, 157K/(18M+157K*10)=0,8% Etc. npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar No. If I agree upon something, I am not being stolen, that's that simple. If you come to my house and take my car without my consent, it's theft. If I agree you take it it's not. npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Still there in silence npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Both npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Yes, I love it! npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar How could something agreed upon be theft? If you know the inflation rate for ever, you agree on a possible (but not necessary) loss of value. It makes fiat inflation really different from Monero inflation. Another innovative way to manage this with a predefined inflation rate is to use two units, one being the currency as usual, the other being the currency corrected from inflation. I only saw that in this "relative theory of money", only in French at the moment: http://trm.creationmonetaire.info/index.html It's being experimented with an actual cryptocurrency: https://duniter.org/ npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Coming back to this question, I had a personal breakthrough thinking of limits, thank you! My main point being that no limit to power makes anarchism impossible, in that case power being essentially capital, how would you limit the concentration of power-capital without governements/states? If you could design the main asset of such a society to be anti concentration, you might have something that holds. If the main asset is money, and you distribute its creation for ever, then no one can cease it all (or an overwhelming part of it) and you get a balance of power by design. Cryptocurrencies give a great advantage to defence via personal holding of private keys. Bitcoin does that. This advantage is reinforced by privacy. As for distribution/creation, it should be infinite but with strictly limited inflation. Monero does that, but the more advanced work I have seen on this topic is "the relative theory of money", only in french here: http://trm.creationmonetaire.info/index.html All of this makes me actually think that under certain conditions, anarcho-capitalism could be a thing... Great talk haha! npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar It's ok, nice of you to admit. From what I understand, combining anarchism and capitalist makes you abolish the state and let free markets organise all aspects of society, based on the foundation of private property. So on top of that everything is based on private interactions (private courts, private police, etc.). Being closer from this or other forms of anarchism is your say. For instance you can have anarcho-communism, which is based on commons but with no centralization by a state. And a lot of possibilies between the two. Other people argue that the state is inevitable if defined as how people organize together as a society... In this case the question becomes how to have an anarchist state, ie a state without a ruler. npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Ok so I understand you are not actually defending an idea of anarcho-capitalism but capitalism and rotation of power, just as it is right now, is that correct? I agree that interventions can make things worst, but I think this is especially the case when it enables a minority to take power. Also, there is a sweet contradiction here as every shift is the result of some people (in a given context) wanting to intervene to realise their vision of the world. npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar How is it self-regulating? The current growing concentration of wealth is a very documented and aknowledged thing, seen as a risk for global stability. Do you call that self-regulation? npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar I would love that. Just not seeing this happening without limitating power (meaning capital) for everyone at some point, or developping outstanding self defense guaranteed for every one, making attack always excessively expansive. But still waiting for it... npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Free market alone does not prevent violence without something ensuring balance of power. Otherwise, any way is good to arise, and if it is violence, violence it will be. I am sure we can have a free market of violence in an anarcho-capitalist world, but is it what we want? In a way we already live in this world, anarchy among countries with the ones with more capital dominating the others, and being replaced as new empires arise... npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Nokia could not have an army because governments seized the monopoly on violence and were capable of enforcing it. And maybe Nokia did not evaluate properly the risk for their business, and other reasons. Patent infrigement does include governments, but it was pushed by private companies, especially Microsoft. Big companies use governments as a tool as much as they can. If we were to dissolve governments with no common and strong governance alternative, I think they would just establish new ones under other names. Some nice new banana republics. npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar What would prevent a super rich to do the same? Rich mafiosi do that. Rich companies have killed people opposing them and still do, violently or quietly... npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar I agree. And I don't like governments either. But I think it is a question of balance of power. As long as competition is actually free, this can happen. But there is a shift when one actor get enough power to kill the competition. I think governments/states have played a role in maintaining competition in some areas with antitrust laws, and have also killed it in other areas. I just don't see how private justice could be as effective at balancing power and limit its concentration in an anarcho-capitalist world. npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Maybe it is not obvious, but many military interventions in history were lead by private capitalist companies pr rich men armiea. From civil wars in the Roman empire to colonisation of Central America, India, etc. and more recently western interventions on Africa serving private interest (intricated with geopolitical ones). Depending on the donations of the super rich is like depending on the will of kings... You do not agree? You loose it. This has also always happened in non capitalist contexts, but they are/were not anarchist. npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Exactly. I am just waiting for a decent explanation of how this would be prevented feom happening. Every time I ask I get... silence. In today's world, capital = power, so unlimited capital = unlimited power (more or less). Trusts already lobby and pressure governments to kill competition. Would they stop killing competition if they had even less limits? Is it more likely thats for instance Apple and Google would be kinder to independent devs and comply with private justice or just establish their own justice? npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar It's not only the state of Israël but all complicit (or silent) governments npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Some do, like Bisq or @nprofile…ewyk You can also buy bitcoin with debit card without KYC with wallets like Proton wallet npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Switching to decentralized exchanges... npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar One's dystopia is always someone else's utopia... #chatcontrol npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar I was rather thinking of some pack including things like a raspberry pi, a keyboard, a screen, connections and "real world" interfaces : sensors, motors... Which would make it possible to engineer basic and playful uses (like : water the plant when humidity is that low, switch on this light when I clap, or whatever safe thing the child is interested in). Learning while playing with tangible things. A friend of mine had his room full of tiny self-designed robots when he was a kid. He won children engineering contests and is now an engineer. He had a lot of fun doing this. npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Here are information and possible action to help fight chat control in the EU : https://fightchatcontrol.eu/ #chatcontrol #eu #europe #privacy npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Only the first point is admitting something npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Awkwardly accurate! npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Nice to see a divergent view here! The relation I can come with between bitcoin is consciousness is that the tools that we use contribute to shape our mind. So if using bitcoin makes you be more conscious about what money is and how it works, and if being more conscious about that is the reason why bitcoin was invented in the first place, then bitcoin can contribute to higher consciousness... about money. Which is actually what any tool do more or less abpit its purpose. Then if the way money works shapes the world, then you can get to understanding it better from this perspectove. But that's another step and it's not directly bitcoin that does it. npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Too bad, I started to like you very critical tone over here. If you ever come back, do not use trends 😉 npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Yeah you have dig deep to find alternative content, but there is. I stopped looking at trends, wrnt on Amethyst and looked account after account, taking my time npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Maybe this is the reason why I and other people find #nostr energising : here does exist "critical hope" when it seems that everywhere else only remains cynicism. I never watched the show cited in the article but I did use to believe that progress (towards freedom for all, peace, etc.) was inevitable. Then came delusion with darkened perspectives for the future. And I was never really involved in social media before I discovered nostr protocol. Here people are very critical, yet building things. Here people have revolutionary tools with nostr and bitcoin. Here I find people who keep trying and give me hope in the future again. Thank you all for being here. 🙏 https://www.theindex.media/p/the-west-wing-and-the-death-of-belief npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Welcome! npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar I would say one that has no way to connect to the Internet and let you play with code/programming, with no apps. First time I think about it though... npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Doesn't capitalism support this system? I have a hard time imagining how the biggest corporations would not set up a form of government to secure their monopoly beyond a certain point of concentration. It makes me realise that before capitalism, feodalism could be seen as a form of capitalism, main capital asset being the land, concentration leading to kingdoms, then empires again... npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Or patriotism npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar I agree. The question behind it is: who is behind regulations? Who is throwing huge budget in regulatory lobbying? npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Aka when over-capitalization kills free market npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Isn't that an effect of capitalism when trusts ultimately dominate the world? npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar I had a hard time discovering that too 😅 Also you can double tap to choose the amount and join a message 😉 npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Welcome! npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Rather stagnant than dead if read carefully npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar LinkedIn have started to ask that too (not compulsory yet though)... npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Isn't treating things as a commodity the core and growth driver of capitalism? In that case we should learn from the most sustainable non capitalist civilizations that have existed.. npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar I have tried my best to understand it, and still, to me, anarcho-capitalism looks like a scam of, well, capitalists at the expense of anarchists. npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Yeah... I just read how Meta pushed hatred content over calls for peace : https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20240921-big-techs-complicity-in-genocide-the-unforgivable-silence-of-online-platforms/ npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Leaving big (proprietary) tech is indeed acting for peace. #nostr #palestine https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20240921-big-techs-complicity-in-genocide-the-unforgivable-silence-of-online-platforms/ npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Too bad, I hope you will find an equivalent or better packaging made of natural material some day ! npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Mylar is plastic, right? npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Just to say: I stand with the Global Sumud Flotilla. Freedom for everyone. Freedom for the people in Gaza. I wish I could zap them. #freepalestine #freegaza #globalsumudflotilla It's right there: https://globalsumudflotilla.org/tracker/ npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar I deleted Telegram, again. Please open source teams and collectives, stop using it, thank you! 🙏 npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Thank you very much for this. I did not even realize this was a kind of "coming out" until you named it. I understand the whole idea behind it is to choose to assert myself no matter if somebody cares or not. It is actually mostly about being true to myself... Nostr helps me in the sense that here more than anywhere else online I can feel the possibility and freedom to be myself, because being uncensorable is rooted in the protocol and expressed by many people here. Of course I want to be seen and loved, and find people I resonate with, and you make me feel just that. But at the same time it is a bonus in the process! My smoothest experience with wallet and nostr was using coinos.io and connecting it via nostr wallet connect on Amethyst, if it helps! npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar I mean, when the bank do not ban alternative OS as one of mine started to do this year... 😒 npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar I am doing fine with Aurora store and no Google account for this kind of things 😉 npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar I aknowledge that I have not been totally honest here so far. I had been trying to find my place on nostr, but only showing one facett of myself. You know, the good one, the strong, positive and well thought out one. Of course it is of limited interest to anyone. Who want to talk with semi people? And what does it bring to me? The truth is, I am strong. And I am weak too. I worked my ass off for ten years trying to promote fairness and transparency in finance, with very moderate success, buying in the startup fashion. Then, two and a half years ago, my doctor diagnosed me with "burnout". Or more precisely, asthenia and anxiety. Following the birth of my first child, we had just moved to the countryside, and I had decided to take care of the construction work of our old house myself. We were expecting our second child. Additionaly, my work with my company was buried with a shitload of stupid bureaucratic issues. It had become too much. What once seemed like everything is possible had become excessively challenging. Since then it's been quite a journey: becoming dad a second time, succeeding in selling my company, living in a work-sometimes-in-progress house, dealing with high variations of energy that turn the planning of anything into nothing but a bet. I am currently a divided person working on (re)uniting myself. One part of me is only love, faith and trust in the process. The other part is struggling with day to day life with significantly decreased cognitive capacities (especially memory and focus). But all of this is good. This is my path. I am in a place where I have to and get to say "no" to more things. All these nos leading to the big yes of me. Strangely, the spirit on nostr is helping me with all of it. Thank you all. So I am slowly but surely going all in for freedom, consciousness, privacy, transparency, nature, spirituality, open source, decentralisation, sovereignty, sharing... Everything is connected anyway. I will mostly share about spirituality, nature, falling and healing on this account: @nprofile…gc53 and about my more material projects and involvements here. Very pleased to meet you. (re) #introduction #introductions npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Ok thank you npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Maybe the reason so many people are renouncing their freedom is because new generations have less and less sex... Or the other way around... #nevent1q…swnl npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar I deleted my OpenAI and Anthropic accounts, it makes me feel good #nevent1q…utlx npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Including @nprofile…tdq0 ? 🙂 npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Privacy is as much important as transparency npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Thanks to Proton's Lumo and @nprofile…0qzz I will gladly leave Claude them and ChatGPT #nevent1q…rafy npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar In that case, I can add: Churches are in charge of religion but they want you divided. Choose taking care of your soul. npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar I’m going into 'The dawn of everything: A new history of humanity' by David Graeber and David Wengrow. I understood that this book would allow me to counterbalance the influence that Yuval Noah Harari could have on my mind with Sapiens, as well as all the stories derived from the hypotheses of Rousseau and Hobbes. It’s on for almost 700 pages to rediscover history! https://image.nostr.build/cffb6680138cf576aef4fb1a33de47a217a3316abbd4db1e86de69f0a9011a4e.jpg #bookstr #history #deconditioning npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Sure. But in this world, how do you prevent anyone (especially the wealthiest, or the most armed) to take control, use violence and form governments of their own, or at least try and release chaos? This is the blocking point in my understanding to be able to envision feasible anarchy... npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Indeed. The definition is more neutral : just without authority or ruler. It's the condition of it and/or the effect of it that is more subject to question... npub1qr4p7uamcpawv7cr8z9nlhmd60lylukf7lvmtlnpe7r4juwxudzq3hrnll Jean-David Bar Fais confiance à ton corps ! #nevent1q…5afc
