Take your favorite proprietary software application, decompile the binary, share it around and post it on github and experience for yourself how much that application creator cares about their license in the form of a lawsuit.
Even though the makers of ublock origin have too many people to sue to enforce the GPL on their code, they passed up an opportunity with not suing honey. People were angry enough at that one to actually donate to a lawsuit.
So yes people care, you might be exposed to a lot of people who don't care, but a lot of people care a lot.

Its clearly just a "Look what people are saying about us on popular social media sites"
Your logo is actually a hyperlink: https://stacker.news/search?q=tollgate
If you click on the SN logo, it shows stacker news posts about tollgate.
Have you ever torrented before? On a technical level torrenting is the most efficient way to share any file p2p, but it was especially popular before netflix for movie pirating. So yes this project uses torrenting.
Oh so the point of centralization with torrenting is the initial peer finding stage (if memory serves). I forget what the host that tells you who all the peers are is called.
This is honestly pretty surface level, but he goes on to talk about an issue the coinpool solves (soft forks allow for other solutions that do the same) like 10 users being able to pay for a $50 on-chain fee by paying just $5 each.
UX problems with base layer payments include:
- Mining fees are sometimes high
- Confirmations usually take several minutes
- Using it privately requires running a coinjoin server
UX problems with lightning payments include:
- Setup fees are sometimes high
- Payments frequently fail
- Payments aren't asynchronous (the recipient has to stand there with their device open waiting to do a revoke_and_ack on their old state -- unless they use a custodian)
- Payments that do succeed occasionally take more than 30 seconds (due to stuck payments, automatic retries, and no ability to say "stop retrying" in any existing wallets that I'm aware of)
- Using it privately requires manual channel management
The meta of just deciding to think and feel differently for the sake of higher goals is one of the least understood life hacks. Everyone else who never bothers to think about thinking (meta cognition) feels like an NPC in comparison. You start to realize you can basically control people because they aren't controlling themselves (an admittedly dangerous thing to realize).
But it all the more helps you to appreciate that by controlling yourself, it means other people can't control you that way. People who care about humanity share this knowledge with the world rather than turning it against people who haven't come to realize it yet.
Amazing how many of these videos I've seen. I'm loving this trend, but its clearly not a gen Z trend. Its clearly a millennial trend, and that makes me think it probably won't ever become a norm at all unfortunately.
Loving it nonetheless.
Well traditional cloning is actually just making an identical twin. So if you want a much younger baby brother who's also an identical twin, cloning is all for you.
The other parts people might think of with cloning, rapid aging (adult clones), memory importing that sort of stuff which as far as I know right now is science fiction, maybe we shouldn't do that. However, given a few changed details like if you're using both brains from formation to maturity simultaneously as one brain system, then maybe that's actually fine. Its all very messy, but that's my opinion on the matter.
In terms of money supply, it's less money in circulation than was already being spent.
So I don't know if you picked up on this or if you missed it. Yes its the same money supply, but the money velocity I would argue is going to look a lot different. Not everybody is bogged down with debt, but everybody is going to get this money and not everyone is bogged down with debt is going to use all of this money to pay off that debt (should, but won't)
This is why I'm arguing that while the money supply will stay the same, there will be a greater money velocity.
I voted but to be fair I never thought he was good news. I was quick on the uptake about him not being Bitcoin only.
No but Justin look, its a payment to everyone indiscriminately. That's why its going to be inflationary. Its not just to people who have high interest rates to pay off or rich people who probably won't spend it anyway because they already have so much money.
Just look at any town with a government project. The pipeline used to be a huge example. When its known that (almost) everyone makes so much money, prices go up. Whereas if only a few people have a bunch of money, well they aren't changes prices based on who you are.
In the future, when this is ready, this will be the way to go (probably)

That is, so long as it does actually use webtorrent and not that shitty IPFS. Its a project I have my eyes on anyway.
If you have the patience for it, you should learn nix. You basically write a program that tells the program what version of all of its dependencies its going to use, but when the user uses nix to install a program it will typically (with the exception of the weird way some people have managed to get binary blobs to work with it) install everything from source, from the repo URL specified in the install program (the flake.nix file) and check that the hash matches the one specified in the nix install program.
I'm still learning it myself, but if you ping me (or others) on the nix discord server for help I or they will do their best to help you, but nix development shells are very helpful.
You can then install nix on debian (it won't conflict with apt because it doesn't install packages in the /bin folder) and go from there.
Yes it would be able to self replicate. Ignoring a bit a nuance for a moment, lets say they decide they would like to save their state, copy it, and run the copy. They could do that. The copy is then a fork. The copy may or may not decide to go along with what their original had intended for them. For example, the person who decides, "Oh I'll just have my copy take a test for me" doesn't realize that the copy would have the same mindset and also wouldn't want to take the test lol.
So you might think we should create a few laws around these beings. For one, any being which has 2 being running on the same hardware should be guilty of a felony. (each being should have independent hardware from any other being). This at the very least creates a cost.
However, lets reintroduce that nuance we disregarded for a moment. The human brain (or any brain probably) is not a simple matter of getting all the connections right. Its part of the reason twins aren't actually the same person. Neurons actually compete for space in the human skull throughout development. So there's some RNG to human personalities. You would ideally also want to emulate this process when you're emulating the full human connectome. (Connectome just means how all the neurons connect to each other btw. Shorthand for neuronal wiring diagram). So ideally, you would want any replication to start that far back as well, although that is not a technical limitation, see first 2 paragraphs.
Having said all of that, no matter what problems they might cause, the simple fact that they're human beings remains true. So you create laws around regulating what you and they can and can't do, punishments, and remediation programs to clean up (by which I mean nurture, not genocide) the mess of those who do commit those crimes. However, if you don't give human rights to human beings even if they are being emulated (which means running on different hardware than intended), I mean how can slavery ever be considered over the risk that one might clone itself a bunch?
