I'm also not totally opposed to a single payer system

2018-07-09 00:55:31 UTC  

or Kickstarter 😄

2018-07-09 00:55:33 UTC  

buuut I just don't know how it would work

2018-07-09 00:55:35 UTC  

like pensions for my recent state reps who all retired at like 50, while like no one in the work force can retire before like 60 or 70, realistically, and very few if any have pensions.

2018-07-09 00:55:44 UTC  

kickstarter and gofundme, etc days are numbered

2018-07-09 00:55:55 UTC  

when people stop realizing the value from donations

2018-07-09 00:56:17 UTC  

I don't tsee that as a long term solution

2018-07-09 00:56:22 UTC  

why public officials even HAD the option of pensions for being in office way too fucking long is beyond me.

A Blockchain-funded DAO that funds your Healthcare plan, according to how much you can "mine" in what you can do for your diseases' research?

2018-07-09 00:56:46 UTC  

exactly, what i was saying, @LotheronPrime

2018-07-09 00:56:48 UTC  

I am so agaisnt digital mining

2018-07-09 00:57:04 UTC  

its basically fiat while burning real resources

2018-07-09 00:57:08 UTC  

so stupid

2018-07-09 00:57:17 UTC  

depends on what you are "mining"

2018-07-09 00:57:26 UTC  

I feel like all that computing power could be put to some use....

2018-07-09 00:57:31 UTC  

yeah some mining is for research etc

2018-07-09 00:57:37 UTC  

good old seti days, etc

2018-07-09 00:57:47 UTC  

like mining medical data to find cures or stella info to find new planets or something

2018-07-09 00:57:50 UTC  

and whatever that cancer genome one was

2018-07-09 00:58:11 UTC  

giving over your computer to research while you are asleep and getting some compensation for it that can go towards your healthcare doesn't sound too unethical.

2018-07-09 00:58:19 UTC  

security nightmare? perhaps

2018-07-09 00:58:25 UTC  

nah but then you're just shifting costs to electricity

2018-07-09 00:58:35 UTC  

and unless you made a net positive there

2018-07-09 00:58:45 UTC  

it wouldn't be worth it

2018-07-09 00:58:56 UTC  

someone is going to be eating up the electricity

2018-07-09 00:59:09 UTC  

either its a few supercomputers over a long period of time

2018-07-09 00:59:11 UTC  

yeah but YOU pay for the electricity YOU use so any credits you get

2018-07-09 00:59:13 UTC  

the problem is going to be confirming the data

2018-07-09 00:59:19 UTC  

or a few million computers over a shorter period of time

2018-07-09 00:59:21 UTC  

would have to account for that

2018-07-09 00:59:34 UTC  

I also think there is endless data to crunch

2018-07-09 00:59:45 UTC  

otherwise people can just make a client that tells the server ou mined loads of data which could be balls

2018-07-09 00:59:50 UTC  

"buuut I just don't know how it would work" you admit so, so sounds like LOTS of room for mistake. but the stakes are too high for an entire industry (and critical) to be at such high risk from such a wreckless policy or social experiement.... thats the problems w/ the inherent flaws of central planning.... guaranteed mismanagement

2018-07-09 01:00:07 UTC  

compensation is just roughly electricity + a small amount for healthcare

2018-07-09 01:01:02 UTC  

so enough to pay for tylenol in the hospital, got it 😛

2018-07-09 01:01:27 UTC  

so you can only ever really crypto mine with data you already know the answer to

2018-07-09 01:02:40 UTC  

better to trade crypto 😁

2018-07-09 01:02:45 UTC  

that would depend on your definition of mining.

2018-07-09 01:03:02 UTC  

I dont see a long term outlook for crypto

2018-07-09 01:03:10 UTC  

of any kind

2018-07-09 01:03:12 UTC  

I could be wrong
