There are plenty of ways the El Salvador Bitcoin project could fail, most of which are outside of our control. But one effective way we can mitigate some risks to citizens is to teach them to use Bitcoin directly, and not just through a government-run Bitcoin bank.

Hayek's unfolding rejection of the Hume & neo-Kantian nomothetic picture of knowledge & science began with a neuroscience which refuted Machian phenomenalism and evolved into an endorsement of the undesigned order explanatory problem identified by Smith, Menger, Hume & Darwin.

In the 1950s I recognized that evolution & spontaneous order provide the key to the explanation of complex orders which don't yield to the monocausal & nomothetic approaches to explanation which conquered the world of simple or mechanical phenomena. -- Friedrich Hayek, abridged

I recommend the reading of this text by @ygrenier1 about the very Canadian "indifference" of the writer Margaret Atwood about human rights violations in #Cuba : quillette.com/2021/07/02/the…

The Prophet of Dystopia at Rest: Margaret Atwood in Cuba

Canada has never supported the US embargo, and the countries’ good relations are for many Canadians a symbol of our independence.

Not everything on Google Maps is what it seems

This art piece is challenging the power of Google Maps

By wheeling a handcart of smartphones running maps down the street, this artist created traffic jams to display how much power virtual maps have over society.
