  • All of these are equally just abstractions meant to portray reality.

    I like to call these strings of coherency. There is no beginning or end to them. They are available in our situation because of their usefulness (also counting in abundancy or ease).

    So if something is “not true” or “made up”, it is not debunked by undeniable facts. It is debunked by how grounded it is to innumerable amounts of information.

    Thus you will never go all the way to debunk these. People who win something you know to be a “false argument” do so because nobody will stand up to him and go the x+10000 steps of reasoning he built up specifically for bulshitting he trained for.

    On the other hand, all of the “false” and “true” labelled arguments most likely stretch into infinity. In the end it really comes down to your “convenience”. That is the closest word I have for it.

    Its a mess, the purest thing you can ever have is consciousness.


  • The overwhelming majority of the kernel development is heavily company financed. Are you saying that despite that, the very developer should get the stipend?

    Lets make one thing clear, exponentially increasing wealth/power the higher you are in society is a pretty heavy general rule of thumb to beat, whicever way you try moving the seats.

    Making such a system for devs will make a pretty wealthy class of people even more privileged with de facto rules that wont apply for the rest of society more in need of money and freedom, meaning actually owning the share of income from their work even over the pay the receive from the company.

    Making this a general rule for everyone will more like reshuffle thungs but the exponentiality will in some form persist. If you inevitably fuck it up the implementation phase, it wont get better any bit. You will have the same miserable pay except you own your work. So what.
