That’s a fair point; my statement was probably too strong.

Finer grained distinctions absolutely do matter, I just think they are overshadowed by the difference between working class and wealthy class.

Exactly this.

The only meaningful class distinction is working class/wealthy class.

Working class is anyone who has to work for their income whereas wealthy class is anyone whose wealth generates enough income for them on its own.

It’s possible to move from working class to wealthy class, after all people do actually do that, but it’s exceptionally rare because it’s exceptionally difficult.

Discipline alone isn’t enough, as you also have to be lucky enough to avoid things like major medical issues, bad market timing, and other financial headwinds that are out of your control.

No, they wouldn’t.

They would exist outside of our universe (since they created the universe), so the rules of physics in our universe don’t apply to them.

Even if the reality they existed in had something equivalent to atoms, it would be inaccurate to call those “atoms” since they are in different realities.

Portable digital identities are still an unsolved problem, even with Nostr.

They take a step forward in portability by using public keys, but that comes with a step backwards in multiple other dimensions like being able to recover your identity, key rotation, and just general ease of account maintenance.

I think Nostr is an important step in the right direction, but won’t be suitable for general use until those issues are addressed, and addressing them might require more drastic changes than simply adding an additional layer on top of it.
