I'm sorry if I've disturbed you. If this list is strictly about technology
then it is probably not a place for me.
I have some additional thoughts in response to comments here and on
socialswarm-discuss which I wanted to share.

There is a parallel thread on socialswarm-discussion@??? so if
this thread is offensive then we can move.

A few thoughts:

I just threw 3 years of my life into cjdns and I'm now coming to the
conclusion that it's not solving the real problem. Forgive me, I'm not in
my best form.

Wikipedia is proof that an alternative can not only exist but can garner
the #1 space on every google search, all is not lost.

I value art, music, and literature and some will be far better than I can
ever hope to be at all of these but long ago society decided that nomatter
what a great musician or artist you may be, you will be compelled to attend
school and learn to read because the threat to democracy of an illiterate
populous was too grave to accept. In this world with a computer on every
desk and in every pocket, everybody has an obligation to have a certain
level of understanding of these things.

I must remember that as a child, I didn't want to learn how to read either
and I distinctly recall telling my parents I would simply invent a machine
to make people not need to know how to read. Forgiveness is deserved.

All of the concentration on usability is, as we would say in the US,
barking up the wrong tree. We will never be able to make open source
projects more "usable" than facebook and their army of designers, we
can only hope to flatten the field with eduction.

The 19th and 20th century compulsory education model will never succeed
here, every university CS class I've attended was teaching 5-10 year old
CS *history*.


tl;dr give a man a fish, feed him for a day, teach him how to fish and
he'll be fed for a lifetime, or maybe he'll just sit in a boat and drink
beer :)
