I don't think you are aware of what is claiming this. ;) Perspective matters in terms of "proving" something outside of observation, by the assumed fact observation can change perspective. In other words, if all of this is a

There are some aggregates who hold as a truth that some mathematics constructs, such as a circle, are "prior to knowledge". This is summarized, at length, by Kant in his argument for some truths being a priori, or before knowledge

Shortly after I moved to the Bay in 2007, we were excited to get out the lights and decorate the house for Xmas. Our bill was $1,200 that month. We had a lot of lights, but usually ran them in Oklahoma, where electricity is much, much cheap

Expectations of the unknown are various shades of irrational. When the irrationality becomes recursive and spreads is when we have a problem. That is true of both too much rigor in science (limiting hypothesis of the far unknown) and too mu

I came up with this analogy to think about prior and new knowledge: Aliens. If aliens exist, they will have existed a priori, or before thought or knowledge. Granted, they wouldn't have existed a priori from their standpoint, but the l

I suppose we could look at consensus as means by which multiple blockchains are collapsed into a single chain which contains the "truth" for multiple entities or aggregates. Once a collapse or consensus occurs, the chain, regard

A blockchain, when applied properly, can provide levels of trust in a way that is not directly associated with the proof of work they run. Bitcoin uses SHA256 for POW, which is pretty well understood by now to be secure and hovers around co

Consider the inevitable conclusion that all information shared "publicly" will eventually make its way to the public domain.

Having spent a lot of time thinking and talking about this concept, this is valuable because you can attach cost-of-suffering to entities participating in an open conversation with an aggregate. Consider the use of Twitter's platform a

Sandstorm's model is close to what I call MSaaS, or managed software as a service. These services can be managed as a SaaS service on prem, yet still be hosted inside a company's network. The equivalence can come from companies se

The people who refuse to stop, will stop at nothing to elevate themselves to a better position than others regardless of the harm that comes. That's the origin of the dissonance, the lies, the blame, and the general negativity of the b
