- oliculipolicula 6mo agoAllow me to A&Q: A: while world3 has be shown to be quite descriptive, the centre right (Nielsen) won't be persuaded, they need market-based narratives that (pre)scribe themselves. In TFA, Nielsen signalled that he was open to "left-curious" ideas from 2023 Buterin. Left-curious in the sense that the d in d/acc means both "defensive" and "decentralized"; one then squints and sees restraint/redistribution.. Q: Yet, solar-first power markets as a harbinger of d/acc don't move the centre-right one millimetre to the left. Why is this so? What would an "solar economy rebrand" of AGI (or ASI) that gets buy-in from the (centre-)right look like? (It's not that I don't think programmers need to be sold on d/acc.. ngl, I believe convincing the centre-right is easier than it sounds, given the rep-damage that crypto has taken in the worldviews of non-libertarians https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastMonth&page=0&prefix=true&query=Stablecoin&sort=byDate&type=comment https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastMonth&page=0&prefix=tr... )
