Democracy Might Not Survive the Tech Revolution | MOONSHOTS

It’s something that existed a while back in the HRE where cities would act as their own independent, individual selves but with the HRE’s protection. It’s a really interesting idea for the modern day. I’ll make a prediction that before we see it exist in the West, we’ll see it develop in Africa. To add to Salim’s analogy. Consensus is the fridge

This is precisely why I like having a portfolio coach guide my day-to-day market decisions: with their extensive knowledge of going long and short at the same time, using risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying it off as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, their skillset makes it nearly impossible for them to underperform. I've been utilizing a portfolio coach for more than two years, and I've made over $800,000.

To be successfully in life one must take risk, investing brings success that’s why the rich will never come out in public to tell you how they make their money

The crypto market has been unfavorable for months and I keep losing my money selling-off during dips, I'm very scared of holding right now, how do you guys still make so much….?

[@JoyJack-cq2pr]

Venturing into crypto as a newbie was very difficult due to lack of experience which resulted in loosing funds... But miss christen willburn, restored hope shes a good woman

[@JenniferDavies-c6g]

You're right! I've been trying to trade but I keep making losses and it's frustrating Who is your mentor please. how can I reach him/her I really need help

[@EmilyCastro-q1i]

So nice to see willburn rachel talked about here,her good works are speaking already, and like wide fire she's spreading.

Thermodynamics as an analogy is useful for categorizing problems and progress but is an incomplete description of potential. Steam, unlike markets, ecosystems, organisms and nervous systems are not heterogeneous and interconnected. When you add diversity of roles and dynamic interconnection, systems do tend to self-organize, usually as chaotic attractors. Structure tends to be emergent not foundational. Our world has never been more diverse and interconnected... I think "vaporize" implies a more dangerous future than we'll see.

Salim, it sounds a bit like you're describing anarcho-syndicalism. What's old is new again indeed.

[@johnnywlittle]

Fascinating discussion - love Salim and Peter

[@StateofBeingness]

I think the city-states may not achieve all of the economies of scale in areas like defense or healthcare…So I think the federal Republic structure actually makes a lot of sense. And it also does not preclude specialists or better yet council of specialists to come up with policy or solutions in various domains (with ultimate ratification by vote of the population, which will be easy to execute to generally).

Yes, what happens when all the money is buying and developing technology and software and there's not enough left to maintain infrastructure, bricks and mortar.

Thanks for sharing such valuable information! Just a quick off-topic question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?

[@CWVasques]

Love these ideas. I hope for our sake things move in this direction. Though, any serious transition is usually paired with crisis, and sacrifice. It will not be easy. I think you nailed it when you brought up the military power. The US will never loosen its grip on such a massive army, and that comes from a spending budget that is beyond comprehension.

[@gregparrott]

Very interesting ideas. How would a city state exist when other cities would likely elect to be part of a state, which in turn may be part of a country? Wouldn't the smaller city-state entity be 'swallowed' by the larger agglomeration?

[@newfreethink]

Yes, a demcratic republic will ve completely different in the future.

You hit every point of what FULL communism is. Don't confuse the process of getting to FULL communism is to what the final form is.

[@cantonold7014]

America has never been a democracy. It is flirted with being a republic; rarely.

[@Agapanthah]

Humm. There are always those someones that want what you have - whether happiness, fiscal stability, weather, land, resources, etc. - that will try to use force to take what they want (not need) but WANT. There are also those that are bottomless pits of WANT....those that can't stand not having it ALL. That's why communities band together for security and cohesion and form nation states based on geography. Many of us like diversity and exposure to new ideas and don't want to close ourselves off from others. We don't want to live in a covid-like world, becoming an INCEL community, and slowly stagnate to oblivion. I hope everyone has the self awareness to know that we all contribute to the macrocosm of Earth - a planet in a star system traveling through the universe. Ultimately, we all need each other for this trip of a lifetime. Humans unlike atoms of steam have free will. Don't underestimate us.

Techno utopia or nothing.

Developing and Training AI models is an Endothermic-Energy-injecting process . Applying it through Inference-is an Exothermic process, which Returns Energy ( in the form of Money). Clear as gin! Cheers!

[@gunnarehn7066]

Exactly my thoughts. Laws of Thermodynamics- Endothermic and Exothermic processes Rule Everything! Energy can take any Physical - and Abstract form. Think about the Implications!
