  "map_content": "And I have it fistfat behind my ears^^.\r\nIf one of you is interested in languages and SciFi go read either \"Neil Stephensons - Snowcrash\" or \"Samuel Delanys - Babel-17\".  \r\nBy the way, thanks to @MarkKordusic for the Babel-17 input which I got from a video he shared. Started yesterday and so far I like it very much.  \r\nLanguages seems to be to the human mind/brain similar to what a programming language or operating system is for a computer.  And depending on the vocabulary, the linkage between the words and the linkage to emotions, these languages give you more or less capabilities or restrictions.  \r\nThere is even a language where future and past are switched, because the people believe, that your past somehow dictates your future.  Which kinda makes sense if you think about it.  \r\nThose interconnected word graphs are quite fascinating and how they can be used to program human minds.  Probably even on different levels.  There may be patterns in languages which we may be not aware of and which could be responsible for memes going viral.  Maybe it is the linkage to emotions, which could be energy-in-motion.  You could infect minds and people with all kinds of ideology ifbyoubhave a deeper understanding about this.  \r\nEvery video you watch, every podcast you listen to and every piece of text you read is somehow influencing and somehow moneypulating you (data is money, data - information - knowledge - wisdom).  \r\nLanguages are fascinating and we probably have no glue to what degree they are influencing us.  I think we may have lost quite some kniwledge about their power.  At least th le majority of people.  \r\nI regard bitcoin as a ver low level, world wide language which is being expressed through math.  It seems dual/boolean, which is why it is that simple.  Yes or no, 0 or 1, lock or unlock, verified or disregarded.  And so far it seems that it can't be hacked.  And on top of this fundamental base language you can build more complex things.  \r\nGeorge Orwellian newspeak is an example of language hacking and abusing it.  Peace is war is similar to the WHO changing the definition for \"pandemic\", or when the definition for HIV was changed in the past.  Or when the definition for bitcoin was changed from p2p-e-cash to p2miner2p-digital-gold.  Preserving definitions and links is important, otherwise they lose meaning.  \r\nBitcoin has parallels to the tower of babel.   \r\nMay the forth be with you!",
