 Strategy in a nutshell: 
 
 identify your resources, identify your goal, and identify any problems
 preventing you from reaching your goal.
 
 Then, develop a plan to apply your resources to solve or bypass problems in
 order to reach your goal. Easy.

 the most successful strategy is always to strike from a position of strength.
 whether that be timing or power, the goal is to defeat the problem that lies
 before you. One by one, problems are solved, until at last you're through the
 worst of it. Then it's just a matter of expressing dominance, and "this is how
 thing's're gonna be."

 short and mid-term, add a ramping tax penalty for unoccupied houses that
 doesn't reset to 0 upon being occupied but rather starts ticking down at the

 would work even if I don't know that the required resources are in place.

 learning martial arts is not useful for the combat capabilities gained through
 practice
 
 but rather for reading the flow and rhythm of an engagement.
 
 to learn the discipline to practice a craft
 
 to develop healthy and honorable relationships toward competition and jealousy
 
 the practice the drive and passionate motivation that comes with performing an
 art to your utmost capabilities
 
 and to keep you in shape.

 kinda feels like that type of work, the kind that people rely on, is more
 important than... whatever they were having you work on at work-work.
 (assumption on my part)
 
 and if that important work is not provided for, in the allocation of resources
 applied toward the developer who is developing security developments that
 develop required functionality for the development of people's
 communication/interactions, then perhaps resources should be allocated for
 resolving those difficulties.
 
 Or maybe not idk I'm broke, shows how much I know about money

 thus enters the promise of technology: that we might solve the problems of
 bureaucracy once and for all by ever more effiency-aligning mechanical
 processes that produce effects which we desire - such as efficient allocation
 of medical resources such that all of humanity is protected from the ravages
 of pain and the incongruencies of our nature.
 
 Alas, that we should only conceive of success through the lens of profit.
 Perhaps another design is in order?
 
 (oh yeah also people who are in control are worried that we, like all other
 examples of natural entities, might immediately proceed to breed beyond the
 capability to cater to the needs of said entity (such as "to feed" and medical
 resources) and therefore might overburden (and therefore destroy) said system
 which allows for their sustenance and initial creation. To this I say... Yeah
 probs, what should we do about it?)

 if tech CEOs wanted to solve REAL problems they'd think about things like how
 every girl has a drawer or box FULL of nail polish and it really, really
 doesn't need to be this way.
 
 For example, picture a fleet of delivery drones that let you swap nail polish
 with people nearby for basically zero-dollars per month.
 
 that's just one example, but that class of problem is the problems that affect
 a certain class of people that tech CEOs fundamentally do not care about - and
 yes I'm referring to people who paint their nail polish themselves. AKA women,
 and poor people who can't afford going to a salon every week.
 
 problem is....... for every solution like this you design, well suddenly you
 have a lot more applications for it than the consumer needs or wants. like for
 example what if they delivered grenades instead of nail polish. NOT GOOD.
 
 much better, I find, to abolish the powers that would utilize such murderbots
 BEFORE inventing the murderbots : )

 this is the simplest implementation of scalable anarchism I could think of.
 tell me how it's flawed so I can improve it before I need it.
algorism is a political and economic philosophy designed to wrest power from those who may be corrupted by it, and restore dignity and agency to all of humanity.  It accomplishes this through several layers of abstraction, of votes, of control, of decisions. What do people need? How could we improve? Is there something more we could do?  The idea is to negate bureaucracy by accomplishing goals in an ad-hoc fashion rather than rely on legalism for institutional execution. Projects, not operations.  Society shall be organized into tiers of rotating peers chosen by vote. Each tier sends their top two most voted for up a level to the next tier of organization. the duty of each tier is to provide for the needs and accomplish the demands of each of their lower tier allies. In addition they should provide what they can to their representatives, who offer them on the tier above.  If a need or demand cannot be met by the team of reps, the request is passed upward. This process can be accomplished with paper and pencil, but it's much better to automate and be public.  If desired, there is a queue system to help with the allocation of resources. This system rewards patience and conservation while still allowing for rapid acquisition. Pick two: good, cheap, fast.  It includes also a recycling system - the more you give back in clean and working order, the greater the options available to you.  It is a system of distribution, not control.

 "here's a pen pile, here's a paper pile, here's a rubber band pile, here's a
 trash pile" etc etc. Then, when you can't reach anything more or the piles are

 devote your life to it, or use AI to build a semi-working prototype that you
 can use to pitch your idea to a bunch of people who have devoted their lives
 to learning how to use your idea as documentation while they build it from
 scratch, throwing out most of the code but keeping all the checklists and
 progress-trackers you built along the way, perhaps even utilizing some of your
 tooling that you used while constructing the scaffolding of this monstrous
 application that you won't be using most of the source-code for.

 also, if you have a lot of a particular item (like, boxes of nutritious
 granola bars with lots of nuts, maybe some chocolate, peanut butter, and dried
 fruit) then you can place them such that the last box is on the bottom, while
 the first box is reachable from the top.
 
 that way, as you eat them, you can slowly reach the bottom.

 if you want to win when confronting a spirit, all you have to do is convince
 it that you've beaten it.
 
 as long as you're persistent then you're fine. Unless, of course, there's a
 beast of a man hiding behind the illusion, in which case you should do your
 best to avoid being stabbed or whatever.

 I've read about half of "No Shortcuts: Organizing for Power in the New Gilded

 the challenges that other unions faced and has ideas for how tech in
 particular might organize.

 ... hmmm could be accomplished with a layer of abstraction. You could use a
 "fediverse client" software to enter text into an HTML page which would have
 it's own UI and stuff and would organize your accounts and instances such that
 you could mark like, 3-7 as places you'd like to put a particular message.
 Then it would just... do it
 
 l m a o spam is gonna get sooooo much worse before it gets better
 
 but trust me, we'll figure it out. And it won't be long, either. It's a
 solvable problem, we just haven't built anything to handle it yet.
