Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Disclaimer: bipolar rant.

tl;dr: I'm frustrated that no one is working on clever schemes like this where I could help. All the weaponized math is for capitalist crypto-bros, drug dealers and think tanks, what an unfair world...


Honestly, seeing the real economic and social implications of fields like game theory, cryptography etc. makes one wonder if it could be possible to put these to revolutionary use. I know about the Revolutionary Technical Committee and might get in contact with them, but I'm not sure if they'll know of some concrete project that would help, something like a bunch of decentralized software, smart contracts, mathematical proofs... I can write all of these, but what for?

For example, this comment of mine proposes an economic scheme that would require all of the above to coordinate, secure and trust, to optimize functioning and minimize necessary involvement. But I'm sure there are other (better?) ways to use math and tech directly for revolution. Any revolutionary ideas where the questions arise of "why should I trust...?", "how can we ensure...?", "how to optimize...?" can theoretically benefit from them.

Even my local revolutionary organization mentioned a problem that could be solved using a certain crypto scheme, namely securely and anonymously swapping vehicles between owners, to be presented to the general population but actually meant to avoid identification while reducing transportation costs.
