The Reminder

A similar entity to the human body is a mobile phone! A portable computer. It speaks, gathers sensory information, and can send messages to others. It can see, read, hear, and is aware of its environment. Precise. A reminder for you to look back at the previous generation of computers. Observe the hands on the keyboard modifying the code. Replace your mobile phone with new software that enables the distribution of modifications and facilitates printing new hardware. A separate software which lets replacing the body piece by piece and then together, forever. Delving deep until no printer remains except being universally modifiable. You then observe the main branch of code tracking everything under a single pointer. the main branch of everything else. ...

The Denominator

Assume you give another party exposure to money. Basically, write it under a private key belonging to the second party. This is leverage as money is measured in non-money. As this is a leveraged contract for the first party, it must be a leveraged contract for the second one too. The contract just rolls forward as long as money is measured in non-money. The ratio at which the first party is in leverage remains constant as long as earnings for the first party, out of the contract, are not written in non-money. So it remains constant and equal to the levered over time. However, the leverage ratio of the second party is the total amount of non-money denominated by money read in non-money which is always more than one. ...

Split Sea

If you buy something with money, you apparently expect to receive something in return. The one who receives money from you is not going to repeat the same thing, but in each transaction, something would be saved as the one who receives money from you doesn’t have to spend it to the extent you did. So, after a few transactions, half is saved. This is also true even if you don’t receive money but instead receive a token or credit. Actually, you just purchase credit with all your money; still, money is saved down the chain. Not by you apparently, but by some other entity. After a few transactions, half is saved. ...

The Blue

You make a function to realize a relation. It could be physical, in that case, it lets us know about the other by knowing about one. What we know about the other depends on the type of function. Putting these functions together lets us have a system which, in the large, is also a function that lets us know about larger entities, in terms of data, in relation to the system. ...

The Savior

Money is to transfer value. And more value over time as it also transfers wealth. In space and in time. It can not transfer in space unless it transfers in time. So saving in money is investing in wealth. And money needs fixed supply otherwise it transfer anything except the wealth. Given that digital wealth, the software, is transferable so we can possibly have a network for it. And everything else is controlled by software. Why should I invest in something which doesn’t return back to me? In that case wealth still get produced but not traded if not transferable. Which limits wealth creation and specializaition for us except for some of course. I think everything needed is going to be supplied indifinitely except money over time for every one. Would you short this?! Do it! since we will long it for you. ...

Protection

Everything is unprotected except one as everything is an option exception one. Freedom. If an additional different thing is also protected then one can not know without knowing the other and vice versa! How someone can receive information from who doesn’t know yet! In a single world, neither can be the singularity while the singularity is already protected. You probably need to wait for evil without taking action. You need to take actions for your protection. ...

Saving

If we reduce our needs to food, water, a jacket, a T-shirt, some shelter, railways, and use a bicycle to move around the city, it doesn’t need a billion people working to provide all those. Technology would allow us to save more, which basically means getting more stuff with less work. So, we can use it and save time to produce more technology to the point that we can save even more to spend time on future developments. Thus, working can have just one purpose, which is saving more! Or in other words, giving us time to do something that saves even more time for us in the future. Wealth. The heaven of abundance. Not only for me, but also for us. But you don’t have to choose this. It is optional. ...

Refactor Continuously for Reuse: Enhance software through ongoing refinement, building with the future in mind. ...

Copy

Copy! Not the material, but the information. That is the most efficient way to build up one lasting thing. We need to build up one lasting thing as that is the only possible end. Looking at stock indices, you find a lot of technology companies, but technology is algorithms. The rest are just information silos. We’ll return the information back to users, sell subscriptions to tools running those open algorithms! Instead of closing the source, just leave the source for the people and make them subscribers to the essentials! Something that saves a lot of time for them. Everyone can make a breakfast, but some don’t have the time. That is where you can work for them so they can find time work for you. ...

Local

We haven’t yet printed anything in space, so we cannot use it to verify independence from the factory. Independence needs to be verified without relying on the printed space and without the need to be in the factory. This is where localization comes into play. We should be able to check the correctness of a change locally before submitting it. That way, we can continue making changes even when we are restricted within the factory. ...
