Trustory returns seed funds? So much for Social Facilitating Entrepreneurship...
Trust issues are a hard bed reality with the kind of socioeconomic climate where a boon to the self governing individual who wants to raise themselves, and their dreams up. Even if those dreams are laid with the best intentions.
There is a culture that believes in strike first before you get took, which has produced a subculture of tech savvy knaves who, instead of building a tree fort on their spring holiday, suddenly is coding bot-nets, and flashing firmware to iot ready hardware that acts as a tomigotchi which finds its only sustainance on packet sniffing and and 'pwning' private wifi networks in their middle class neighborhoods. Who ooh and Google over it as a distraction on neighborhood walks with their girlfriends and boyfriends. They are way ahead of their parents with regards to comfort manipulating technology, and the parents are completely unaware of their activities, or the possibilities.
The agreement seems to be that no one can be trusted, and further the sentiment is that it seems to be morally right to steal and attack Corporate interests. Sentiment is suspicious when I ask a stranger to jump start my vehicle, or even one day I rode my bike and got caught in a very sudden downpour and my cell phone had no power. I asked for a ride in exchange for cash to someone in a pickup truck who I'd seen toodling aimlessly about the little suburb I found myself in, and he would not even aknowlege that I was there let alone dignify me with a response.
Most crime I believe is preceded by economic strife. Furthering the muck and more of it all digital assets which should get the culture back in a spirit of harmony and partnership, are being horded because everyone is assured if they hold on long enough and protect their bounty from lazy greedy grabber thieves they will somehow get filthy rich when someone else does the work to give the asset some intrinsic value. Then they will show up the world, yet they envy the wealthy and influencial with a spirit of distrust.
Now here we are further being separated and told 'stay at home' for fear of infection from a virus. The natives are getting restless, and the knaves all the more creative and crafty; further being fueled with a sentiment that to even get a chance to be secure to scheme underhanded is the most opportune probable road.
Now, as I find myself displaced and living in a Ford Focus Wagon and hear the admonitions to "stay home" I think I would be happy to. Yet I just had perceived circumstance that barred that as an option. In cognitive psychology there is a concept called cognitive load, which accounts for the amount of memory that can be allocated while still being able to function
Cognitive load theory differentiates cognitive load into three types. Intrinsic cognitive load is the effort associated with a specific topic, extraneous cognitive load refers to the way information or tasks are presented to a learner, and germane cognitive load refers to the work put into creating a permanent store of knowledge. This is now being applied to machine learning with success. My allusion is that with a multidiciplinary set of passions being beset by further discord, and not having any relief, as well as poor consumer credit I find it hard to see relief unless I make my own value.
Fortunately I am not beset with the alternative which turns this adversity to the spiteful, vengeful, and cold hearted criminal bent that feels so justified for others. I feel if many of the people who perpetuate scams and digital attacks put half as much ingenuity and creativity into acts that are in concord with compassion and loving kindness that we'd already be onto a solution to the issues at hand.
If I went off the path of integrity the world should beware, because I have a mind that would be dangerous if not backed with emotional mastery. I am a firm believer in interconnected energy in relation to cause and effect, and that you may seem to get away with something you will feel it's repercussions on another plane of experience.
I am a believer in reincarnation and know some or the energy I am dealing with in this life is working out some abuses of Love relationships I perpetuated in a closely allied portion of my self. Yet that other self did some very honorable and redeeming deeds and was also beset with outer appearing circumstances and responsibilities they took before their age was appropriate.
What did the dragon reap when she sowed the seeds of her teeth in the arm
of Man? An alliance of knights who came for her head in a noble spirit of just fate? The cognitive load in someone less guided from within with that truth which is universal we all learn as cause and effect which does not always happen immediately goes undetected, and subtly illudes a perpetrator.
Then all the retinues of fine citizens decide to class all those in their class economically as not worth risking their time to stop to ask if they are okay. Then uncle big brother finds a way to create a federal agency with carte blanche permission to titter around in our personal affairs and be the knights of valor.
I say it is the lack of personal philosophy, integrity, and mutual respect in the home which is at the heart of the loss of our inalienable free pursuit of life, liberty and happiness.
This was the article I just read about a tech startup that had to return it's venture capital. It sparked the stream of consciousness that precedes this. The founder was much more of a solid bet than am I on paper, and she had a rock of a team to achieve what I expect being a bachelor who lives in a station wagon at current. Still I have faith enough in humanity that despite any outcome I would still help someone in need, and it would not be sacrificing anything because I love people and aspire to see them in joy and merriment.
Granted my venture is inspired and uplifting and it appears she was creating a mudslinging-centric social media platform. Just the the world needs, a place for people to debate.
Here is the article from Medium
