RE: Hive...? Or can we choose a different name?

in #writing5 years ago

well smart people also say that there is a big chance we would have a big problem staying alive and not starve if there were no bees, so maybe we could also educate all stupid people who would comment shitty on the name 😄

Sort:  

Appealing to authority is a logical fallacy, lots of smart people say lots of things, doesn't make such true. The data I've seen actually shows otherwise, here's a snippet.

"Approximately 60 percent of the total volume of food grown worldwide does not require animal pollination. Many staple foods, such as wheat, rice, and corn, are among those 28 crops that require no help from bees. They either self-pollinate or get help from the wind. Those foods make up a tremendous proportion of human calorie intake worldwide."

Also, it looks like bees need water as well, so... Water is more vital once again.

Not sure what you meant by the last part and if you're saying I'm stupid or not, though, I've no interest in getting involved in jackal language like that, peace.

never thought that you would think that was thinking about you. sorry if you feel that it was aimed at you.

i wrote in one of the comments on your post

"i don't have reason to defend them, but i have a vague idea how coding works, so changing it 2 days before a fork it is not really an option. also i do understand why they did not scream on top of the lungs from day one "we are building a new chain", because justin could push for a power down and it would not be possible to eliminate steemit coins. so it kinda is what it is..."

so we could talk bad about the name, or we could try to find a good side of it.

and it is 5AM and i suck at spelling :D

No worries. Thanks for clarifying. I saw the other message and responded to it already. I feel like the actions taken were similar to government using the excuse of national security to do things in secret, I was hoping we could be more decentralized and not have the new chain be birthed out of secrecy and centralization. But, it is what it is. Not much I can do about it.
