Driven by authoritarian high modernism Top down imposition Structural way of understanding context Industrial revolution Ten years ago there was online education MIT open course where Open up the content to everyone and it will create revolution Introducing a model that the person gets illuminated from Humans are good at metaphors Give them a framework and people will figure it out These things are measurable Open problem in computer science Two classes of complexity Polynomial time Vastly exponentially complicated than things that can be solved in a certain time NP on the hard problems Has to do with the structure of our attention 9 years experience Philosophy of pedagogy Why doesn’t it make it easy to open up knowledge? How do you make something relevant? Strongly in favor of hyper individualist approach to teaching Interdisciplinary Try everything, some things stick Analogical reasoning How do you improvise for metaphors? Why is it so disincentivized to do improv? Input output model doesn’t quite work because the context is so vast The model of the areas of learning is helpful but not 100% accurate Tutorial method does not scale but its the most effective Really hard problem P=NP what is it? When I’m working on a particular mode, gumption traps, energy sinks, takes a lot of agency to activate yourself out of the state Rumsfeld called the unknown unknowns What questions do you have? Is a better question than What are your questions? What do you do when you need to solve a problem? Someone tried to build a solution for what Neal is talking about at 10 minutes in Go to the fringes to get the edge cases What is the advantage of a low status source? How do you make your questions and answers legible? Subtopics and how to use them? What is the demand for previous for previous programmers learning Urbit? What is the percentage of programmers who are learning Urbit? What was the first iteration of home school? Dozen people finished Now they have 60 people finishing Why does Urbit have a weird perception from people? Once you hear about it you go into the rabbit hole and it never stops Its a web within a web Its like a secret door in a house didn’t you know about it Pitch the idea of the treasure hunt powered by Urbit Why did stars survive in demand? How much did they survive? How much does it cost to buy a star now versus the 2022 downturn in crypto How do you get the right answer as opposed to the fast answer? Only developers who are autodidactic like and stay with Urbit Who is Richard Stallman? LISP He built community around GANU, Linux? Invented the free software  What is functional programming? What is the relationship between mental divergence and programming? What is the third type of developers in relation to something like Urbit? The arguers What is the fourth type of developers in relation to something like Urbit? Rebellious and devious enough  What is the relationship between Bitcoin and Urbit? What are the main challenges you see in terms of my crazy idea for the treasure hunt? What are the options to build this quickly? This is the main problem Is it a web page driven experience? Build an urbit app and get them to install it You would have to figure out how to do the call outs to the phone device Hot or cold game Only track wether they found it or not How can we effectively expose underlying things to the urbit server? 24 minutes in Should we think about Urbit as a operating system? Who is experimenting with Urbit moons as internet of things?
