Wow, in 2010 Peter Norvig talks about the problem of word segmentation, and you can totally see how from this single page of code we get LLMs 15 years later

@danfinlay can you tell me about the scalable social dynamics you imagined? Is this what you were telling me about on our walk?

The right way of doing this is to build Internet First global private regulatory systems.
The key concept is to treat regulation as a binary classifier. To minimize false positive AND false negative rates. To quickly approve good projects AND correctly flag bad projects. To disclose all financial interests of regulators and put decisions onchain. To allow for appeal, by multiple independent regulators, in the advent of an incorrect project classification. And, finally, to allow users to ignore those reviews if they so choose.
That is, the right answer isn’t either (a) to just be randomly hostile towards projects or (b) to just tolerate everything or (c) to rely on the SEC and similar nation state regulators but rather (d) to build our own Internet First parallel regulatory systems that live on the Internet and aggregate signals *across* borders.
We know this works because it works for Amazon (book reviews), Uber (star ratings), Apple (app Reviews), and many others.
It will work for us.

What’s with all the duck sayings?
If it quacks like a duck and walks like a duck…
Water off a duck’s back
Like a duck to water
Lame duck
Ducks in a row
Smooth on the surface but paddling like hell underneath
Everything is ducks
It’s all ducks
It’s ducks all the way down

If you think the same and move in the same direction, that's a cult.
But if you think differently and move in the same direction, that's a movement.

Wowow!!! @notdevin.eth just bought his own instance of the negation game for /backpack!
In his own words, "I'm bought into this as the basis for how DAOs and businesses should operate." and so he did, becoming our first paying customer!
