God willing, the administrative state will be brought to its knees by the duly elected public officials meant to keep it in check.

This is the sort of thing Nietzsche alludes to as his "last man".

Fascinating how in the modern west all efforts are taken to commoditize the human body in every way imaginable, and even overwrite the history of efforts to treat the human body with respect. The false equivalency stating that a public space for women must necessarily be a place that allows prostitution is horrific.

not surprising that meat is the most bioavailable

P2P collaborative CMS for blogs that allows publishing from Urbit to the web: https://blog.tirrel.io/blog/this-page-is-hosted-on-urbit

From site:

Urbit provides foundational primitives at the operating system layer, serving as a better platform for building networked, decentralized applications.

Is this article a joke? There is no mention of why eating healthily would have negative life consequences. There is, however, a sleight of hand in which the author blames the subject of the piece’s “eating disorder” for him losing his job. Was he eating steak while working at a vegan smoothie shop? Clown world is back at it again.

Is this a joke? I’m not very good at reading sarcasm.

“Please, give us more power to tell you what’s right-think and wrong-think.”

It’s certainly in the genre of projects I find interesting. I personally like Urbit’s approach more, but I do check in on Holochain intermittently.

I’m curious as to your definition of decentralized here. It seems you’re using the term to mean “global commons”, when I generally would use the term to mean something more akin to “permissionless” or “exhibiting a resistance to control via a singular entity or small group of entities”. Urbit is certainly decentralized by either of the two latter definitions, though a particular Urbit server surely wouldn’t constitute a global commons, which seems closest to your definition.

Thanks, this is interesting. I enjoy looking at these sorts of projects and their approaches.

Storing data on Ethereum is absurdly expensive, but further, it simply provides a different value proposition than running your own personal server. These ideas aren’t mutually exclusive, nor can they reasonably serve the same needs.

> Right now it’s just a platform to make peer-to-peer servers.

Show me any other platform that allows one to easily build, distribute, and run long-running p2p services that communicate strongly typed data over the wire, or any strong decentralized identity system that can even begin to go toe-to-toe with Urbit.

As far as I’m aware, there is no custom cryptography, and you can interact with it through a web UI now, not just through commands. Not sure where they got that idea.

You don’t, and the article is outdated and “titles” no longer exist.
