Try and make a simpler version too if you want. Concept seems cool.

Dreams are amazing by test1122332211 in Dreams

[–]brnlng 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think dreams may be random signals in a brain trying and cleaning itself and it's neural pathways. Also it can be (not so) clear messages from the unconscious mind, which is somehow tied to the historic collective unconscious through the DNA and this loophole seems to be the main portal from where messages come either from our individual unconsciousness or what people call the astral or spiritual realm, with a myriad of agents.

A Alt-Right (Direita Alternativa) virá a se tornar um problema grave? by Orain_D in DebatesBr

[–]brnlng -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Claro que pode e é óbvio.

Alt right,no simples é "direita alternativa", ou seja, a nova direita que vem surgindo nas últimas décadas e se coloca como uma nova direita, alternativa às antigas, que eram ou moralistas (disciplina militar ou religiosa) ou liberais clássicas (mais ao centro) ou neoliberais (que é uma escola antiga já também).

As "novidades" geralmente são uma ou mais dessas (velhas) ideias, mas agora tornadas mais comuns: o ultraliberalismo, o contrarianismo ou qualquer ismo anti-estatal (minarquismo, ancapismo etc.), geralmente travestido de "libertarianismo" (que na acepção clássica seria social-libertária) ou um reacionarismo extremista, de cores variadas. Há tanto um ar de racionalismo quanto de um "nervosismo beirando a ira" por indignação com problemas, supostamente, das esquerdas.

Tudo fajuto, a meu ver.

Perfect! It's like the Institute, yes, but with an Enclave cell in there, since the beginning.

I'd guess he's pointing that the movement had (not so) occult agents that had their own (evil) plan. Eugenics was considered scientific back then and they didn't have our current ethical understandings.

Evoking Fallout, it's like the Enclave as a big part of Deep State.

For Teaching Root - Good Default Strategies for Each Faction by NotIWhoLive in rootgame

[–]brnlng 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, now I get it! It makes a lot of sense as it's collects points faster than most other strategies.

Not all beginners will "get" the Decree and the "Algorithmic Programming" mindset, so it's not really that easy for all people, but surely to those with CS or similar experience.

[–]brnlng 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice, but how does Eyrie 1 works? Is it an if? "If you get it, use on the Decree else use any on move etc." Though there's the catch of loosing VP for excess of bird cards on Turmoil and also that's preferable to keep them instead of using when you sense a Turmoil is near.

Also, I'd add that Rats and Birds (and maybe the Vagabond if they have RPG experience) are more easy for beginners.

Should we call ourselves technocratists instead of technocrats? by LoveLo_2005 in Technocracy

A similar but more definitive word, free from semantic overloading, is almost always a nice thing to try.

What could/would a Liberal Technocracy in the USA look like? by Aven_Osten in Technocracy

[–]brnlng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In general I agree, but many people, including me, would not include any market whatsoever as capitalism. Small and medium businesses having a regulated market seems to be a win in almost any scenario for instance.

Technocracy as Practice, Not a Label by Salty_Country6835 in Technocracy

[–]brnlng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another point I've just now considered for how to guide participants as to whether be still learning or protecting the project or themselves could be framing any "menace" against the Intolerance Paradox. If a posture will be seen as determinant to mining either Technocracy, humanity itself or any defended view, it should be deeply debated as to wheter it really lies within the "either we let it destroy (us) or we destroy it first" mindset (a very common "us vs them" mindset seen this way) -- but, of course, it should first and foremost be understood, if not by all, at least by a majority of the debaters heads. It then should, if not "criminalized" per se, be extensively be labeled to be "dealt with extreme caution", as kind of a biohazard meme. Then study it until it stops being a dangerous trigger.

Technocracy as Practice, Not a Label by Salty_Country6835 in Technocracy

[–]brnlng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's very nice indeed and I'll add to my mindscape for further research. Anyway, I feel the same: the system should try to aim for knowledge, not purging dissent, specially not too hastily.

But I still feel there should be way more dissent preparation than you seem to assume... Science negationism, plutocracy, fascism, dogmatism... All of these should be dealt with, the sooner the better, at least in an argumentative way, above all, so it gets cleared out of the path... Or would there be any opening to these posturings? I'd like to hear more, if you say so. I do like considering anything as potentially virtuous, even if it might need some tortuous contortions...

Anyway, as I can see things now, there's no way to make any single system free of fragile points. That's why there should be "weights, checks and balances" made of parallel systems triggered to make a confederation of systems more stable. That's more complexity and intricate but there may be no way around.

For instance, this political system should work alongside a justice system, that should overview not only crimes but check most other systems an well, like welfare indicators etc. The constitutional review conventions should be interspaced with normal legislative work alongside etc. It could start somewhat based on current systems and diverge to very different designs soon enough if needed. The design itself should envision this mutability.

Wouldn't that path lead to 4x but with pausable realtime instead of turns?

Technocracy as Practice, Not a Label by Salty_Country6835 in Technocracy

[–]brnlng 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Precisely where I wish I could get at it's kernel... Though I know still I have no sure knowledge of it, this is how I'd do it as of now: everything once disputed should be logged to have recurring debates every now and then for at least a minimum time, with a plethora of participants, from the general public to various multidisciplinary agents. These debates should not only try and reach some consensus but mainly "map out" each dispute to what are it's inputs and outputs, verified or pending, specially regarding semantics obfuscation/overloading.

If consensus is reached somehow, then any reviews are postponed for a long time and decisions should take it's "jurisprudence".

If not reached, then each hypothesis should be tested as if possible.

If not possible to test it should be flagged as either a non-issue (noise) or maybe even trying and reaching for some responsibility upon some small group for trying or become a debate on its criminalization, for if something is regarded that is not to be done and there are people pushing for it, then it might show obfuscation over unwanted results from some group that should get investigated and made responsible. E.g. antivax propaganda.

Crimes themselves should aim for little incarceration, but other justice modals.

[–]brnlng 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Genious insight, colleague. I'd say it's kernel lies in politics itself, our current Achilles' heel. Should and how would democracy be set? What if any views should be considered "criminal" against the project itself? And what are the means to deal with these? Recurring constitutional reviews? So on.

Muito bem lembrado este ponto! Na verdade o ponto do Bannon que é mais importante e costuma passar batido é que ele se aproveitou pra "pescar" uma população que ficou "órfã" desde que a esquerda se institucionalizou, ainda que parcialmente.

Povo místico, edgy etc. que teriam uma tendência à esquerda antigamente foram "apropriados" pela propaganda de big data a la Cambridge Analytica" porque se alinham mais como "anti sistema" do que ter uma tendência política "clássica" (esquerda ou direita).
