(FB 1552154946 Timestamp) Good Deeds of the Day. I provide light tech support for neighborhood people – mostly old folks out here in the sticks – and I charge “coffee, cookies, and a hug.” Few days ago a printer. Day before yesterday it was an iPhone. Yesterday it was our Theater (the building has a full on private movie theatre, and a full on bar/lounge with pool table). Every time I see someone carrying something I offer to help. Helping usually takes me 15 minutes. Makes the people absurdly happy (which makes me happy). Builds my local ‘rep’ as a good guy (if they only knew!) and banks some Karma (which I feel I need.) This afternoon I have a handful of home made fig filled bar cookies to snack on. 😉 Doing shit for people does make you happy. I know why. I know it’s purely programming, but it does work. 😉

(FB 1553346169 Timestamp) by Nick Heywood Society is a result of Similar DNA selecting each other for trust and likelihood of lessor cost reciprocity and productive cooperation than otherwise! In other words?…. How likely is it that you, assuming you’re from a similar gene pool, are or will… a. Advise me to act on falsehoods? b. advise me to act on falsehoods you know to be false (Lie!)? c. exchange resources as a result (with no warranty) (rip me off)? d. just take my S (Theft)? e. initiate violence if I refuse (Attempt to kill me)? f. Complete or honour agreements? g. Agree to 3rd party, empirical (Scientific method and competent authority) judgement in the event of dispute? h. our reciprocity and/or cooperation results in productivity improvements for you and I? Compared to an unfamiliar, unknown, unsampled (blind faith) gene pool?

(FB 1553446142 Timestamp) LARGE SHIPS TURN SLOWLY by William L. Benge If participants (participation) in a market cannot punish (selective refusal of exchange [ban]) their bad actors (peers) then neither can they reward (select for favorable exchange) the trusted actors for gain, since the black hat bad actors will forever have incentive to target, attack, undermine and displace the white hat trusted party (worthy, desirable), and therefore can be relied upon to act on those nefarious incentives. It is my opinion the above describes the modern western experience of the now. The difference between what occurs in a) the faster markets and b) in the West overall is not outcome but only c) time. Reciprocity will assume, emerge. Natural law. Markets in everything.
