What is the "crypto crapware" specifically you are referring to in the BlueSky project? There is no blockchain or token associated, though they are using DIDs to sign each post as well as standard asymmetric key encryption with th

I lost massive respect for Carmack after he testified in court that he downloaded ZeniMax emails after leaving for Oculus. He also claimed he rewrote all the code from scratch but it's possible much of the IP was in those emails. This

Would issues like this even arise if it was all open-source and on-chain? I don't mean a DEX run by a DAO, I mean a Delaware C-corp with managers that simply makes every git commit public, maybe even their email servers. You could clai

What is crazy to me is that Bitcoin mining may be the only viable solution to this problem. Its the only profitable way to incentivize the capture of this methane, regardless of location.

The real solution will look very similar to https://www.quixotecommunities.org imo. Get cheap land, build net-zero tiny home communities, along with regenerative agriculture. Solar punk style.
