Thanks for the update, Kaliya. I really need to do a much better job of helping make the importance of this work more accessible to a general audience.

Re: Are complementary currencies a likely remedy for economic problems? › ActivityStream.Silverton.Palo-Alto.CA.us

Are complementary currencies a likely remedy for economic problems?
Jct: Aren't complementary currencies the only likely remedy for economic problems?
The defect in the 1/(s-i) usury banking software is the inability to return 11 when you only took out 10, like musical chairs with money, a mort-gage death-gamble. So of course, a 1/s UNILETS time-based currency has no such instability.
So yes, because it is the only remedy, it is the most likely remedy.

Awesome. Nice work scanning the interwebz for salient conversations, Sylvia. If we generate some traffic, maybe Fluffy 2.0 might consider sponsoring our activity streams research. ;-)

I work for a company called Fluffy 2.0 that was created to store a pet's DNA for the exact purpose of waiting until the cost comes down so that it affordable to more people. The costs of cloning have traditionally been falling by about half every 24 months so it is not inconceivable that it could be down to around $1000 in the next 5 or 10 years if things continue as they have. Hope this helps!

Well, I was 49.290410959 years old at the time of this post, so add 136.19246 and that's 185.482871. Which would make for star date 2195.48287, or June 25, 2195.

Let's see if humanity makes it to the next Fibonacci age (Fib12, 144) first, and take it from there. Our great grandparents would have doubted average life span extending from Fib10 (55) to Fib11 (89), so who knows? Check with me in 2104 and we'll update this entry. ;-)

Women generally last much longer than men, so it's more likely that you make it.

Thats 49710.25 days or 136.19246 years - if we keep progressing the way we have over the past 100 years you may actually have a chance to be alive when it finishes.

Okay, well that was interesting. Apparently sweetcron polled delicious and got a 500 error. Surely sweetcron needs to be taught to not publish those.

Likewise, always great to see you, Kate! I actually caught this note from you, right here on the experimental site; just about to post a note about how it looks like Google Wave could take that to an entirely new level. As ever, that leaves me perplexed because I love the innovation, but not too keen on the centralization. The more things change, you know. ;-)
