Easy to dismiss him because of his wealth or other prejudices you may have of him. "Free America Now" raises an incredibly important debate that all lockdown-ridden countries should be having. Were lockdowns constitutional? Were lockdowns effective? Could other measured responses have achieved similar outcomes?

Were lockdowns done in vain? And have we set a dangerous precedent?

Bunch of questions. Don't flame him or me. Just participate in the debate.

Lockdowns were the wrong solution, imo. I think we've underestimated the spread pre-lockdown and the spread during lockdown (grocery stores etc.). We'll know once broad antibody tests are administered. But if the virus has already spread to 30, 40, heck 50 percent of the population, then what the heck are we doing in lockdown...

There is also the likelihood of this virus to have already infected a large % of the population. Antibody tests will confirm that.

As I see it, lockdowns are not effective and were a massive mistake. You may find this epidemiologist's perspective to be interesting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfN2JWifLCY

Audio/video chat is atrocious for relationship building.

- There's the speed of sound/light delay. - You lose all the physiological feedback: Body language, tone, facial expression. - The barrier to start a conversation is way higher too. Some would argue that is good. - You cannot go for a walk with a peer.

Show of hands... Who is throwing shade on We while being a tenant?

Could you provide the source for this quote?

"Untrustworthy governments manipulating currencies" appears to be the problem that decentralized digital currencies are supposedly solving. Instead of this indirection, how about addressing the root problem? Replacing that untrustworthy government with a trustworthy one, changing incentives, or identifying new forms of government/control.

What would you recommend for ACH bank account verification?

Hard delete of an issue over closing it or closing comments... for such a security sensitive issue... under the rug sweeping.

Don't abandon it and don't sell yourself short to a large corporation. If you are needing to be surrounded by a team, then let's chat. I also loathe going solo on a project for similar reasons. Over the past few months, I've been able to manufacture a schedule that has opened up a lot of time for me to explore serendipitous projects.

Hit me up.
