“The Codex” / Humanity Basic Infrastructure Project

Codex of human know-how as a public resource to humanity. Imagine it were everyone’s birthright to have access to the wealth that is the sum-total of human know-how!

Includes “How to survive as a highly sensitive person on a low budget”. Also includes “Guide to Reconstructing Society” and “Surviving/Thriving if We Had to Build/Rebuild From Scratch”. And the “know-how”/craftsmanship that is all software (shouldn’t all software from 10 years ago be free by now?)

The Codex is a hub of knowledge resources + hacked-together open source software infrastructure to coordinate human activity – with the goal of bringing human flourishing into every person’s reach. We’re building the more general, not-just-engineering equivalent of the open source movement. We envision this as something the majority of the developed world eventually becomes a part of to a lesser or greater degree – it will be like: “If you're not part of this cool community improving the world together, what are you doing with your life?” For the services side of this “Volunteerism Movement” – i.e. things you could do right now that would help people – see favorverse.jacobcole.net ! Also, yourself and your interests on people.worldquestguild.connectordocs.com

#actionable #specific “ThunderPledge” – a website like Kickstarter for pledging to take collective actions when you reach a critical mass. For instance, there are a large number of people who would consider becoming vegetarian for climate reasons, but feel like it's pointless unless millions of others do the same. Using ThunderPledge you could pledge to become vegetarian only when a million other people have also committed the same. At that point, not only would you know for certain that your change is part of making a difference, but you would have a ready-made support group of people all trying to do the same thing.

Web Clearinghouse for campaign donations -- Currently Democrats and Republicans donate vast amounts of money to their parties to cancel out the media noise from the opposing party. My friend Sam Galler ~smgaller@gmail.com , who is super nice, massively connected, and a graduate student at Oxford on a Rhodes scholarship, proposed that we build a website that acts as a clearinghouse for donations to political campaigns in the US. If you donate to the Democratic Party it cancels out the donations to the Republican Party. The resulting bag of saved money goes to charity. He has the connections to get this website, if built, on frontline media, and would love to find people who want to work with him on it. I think this could save millions of dollars, and is a #lowhangingfruit #govtech #good jacob@ideaflow.io

Scratch notes with Jenni #conversation

Systems thinking

Connection over missions that have reality independent of people Bonds people who are very different

Talk about things that have nothing to do with selves personally but have something to explore <> “Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.”

“Swarming effect” – swarm on problems

“Uncanny glimmer of hope”<-- the inspiration behind inaction or apathy; something arises so you can feel less alone and perhaps decide it’s worth taking action

X village in TZ has no working well pump and people need to walk 3 miles to get muddy water from riverbed

J’s friend is living a financially stable life as real estate professional but is not living up to full creative potential — Eg being in band

X college graduate struggling to land dream job (with missional purpose), but does not have opportunities to tap into immediately and too much student debt so must settle for uninspired work as a first job

Jacob’s Notes

Different degrees of centeredness <>Helping ppl is analgesic...

3 types of motivation :

1) Motivation for it’s own sake (learn a talent, enjoying the mastery of something new)

2) Motivation to help others/solve problems that block others

3) Motivation to prove something (make money, success, etc--self gain)

What would people pay to do ? What is a job if you had to pay to do it you would do it?

Pay for as leisure/rec?

Trading circles

Donate to consumer behavior change — charitable contribution dollars to get people who would have bought ordinary care to buy tesla

Way to fund companies to positive externalities

Individual personal level of it — just one person is better than abstract

If you give money to someone doing what you want to do in the world it's not like you're giving the money away but having them enact your will

Like philanthropy

Coming from sense of enough

Even if poor unless dying but even if so — were all dying

Don't have to wait to be philanthropist - thinking can benefit your life

<>Different degrees of...

Home alone

Life is just a big distraction for most part for these people

Super busy

This is tech for getting people out of subtle places of mediocrity

Connect all ppl who are too lazy to become enlightened

Let's all get up and for a war against our hidden oppressor

Take arms against a sea of troubles

Book of dark secrets willing to share — learned secrecy early

Want people to live in world where they believe

If I

Rather remain cynic— love to wallow in that

Hope is we don't settle for that

- sad because

Something shifts in moment you realize you're not alone w sadness

Do we feel like world is not alone w feeling

Cancer immediately switch to emotional support mode

Doubt who am I this is ridiculous

- shifting to mode of surrendering to issue

Tool that makes people realize shift — uncanny glimmer of hope that ;

Otherwise lack in apathy

But of tool that empowered me to be problem solver — use cerebro the apparatus

What if things are really different — blockchain warp, superconductors - it's apathy we're fighting.

Crazy world shift — generation suffering lack of inspiration

Something tangible exists

Hopefulness in something being useful enough or way to connect another dot toward the solution

Weird impostor syndrome - who am I to think i can cure disease — likely a waste of my energy - switches from being wise — accepting things I cannot change

Looking for key force of people w these skills

You want to cure your parents cancer

You actually can be there to cure your parents cancer w your skill set

Need that great ops person

Cure widespread mediocrity

It's healthy to not try to change the things you can't

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,

courage to change the things I can,

and wisdom to know the difference.[1] #good

X persons dad has cancer

X person is feeling subtle mediocrity and oblivion seeking

Report issues no matter how small or stupid

Open gestalts

See what resonates

Not needing to wait for a blog post or whatever to go viral and nucleates everyone

Connect dots between separate such blog posts

"Barely have time to close them to sleepl"

Just because things are being done a certain way

Doesn't mean I like this #BehaviorChange

Goes from full to sharp connect dots between mediocrity

Suddenly realize acuteness it's your small

Problems but it's huge if you see it at scale

Lack of inspiration it's like a cancer slowly killing us wake up to the scot

Come home

Jenni’s Notes

First principles--start with pure insights independently from teasing out monetization of ideas

“It’s healthy to try to change the thing you can’t change (or feel unable to)”-Jacob

Uncanny glimmer of hope (if Ideaflow-like thing existed) that things could change

Sub-idea: Create a giant database of all the wrong things in the world (crowdsource from people anonymously or knowing submitting)

Start to link commonalities

Shifts can happen when you see so many others struggling with same thing; not alone

Book Rec from Jacob--Gateway To the Miraculous---Wolfe Lowenthal #bookrecommendation

Common thought among philosophers---there’s hope in their brilliance and achievement; they had such traumas

As more fortunate individuals, our barriers were a lot easier, does this suggest we can go even further? There’s confidence in this.

Unprocessed traumas--most people (even with seemingly great upbringings)

Abstract motivation is not enough “we need to cure global poverty”

Get granular, specific

Afghan Kid Sling Shot video on Youtube---- Jacob sad if in 10 years no kids would play outside this way. And instead due to westernization, everyone has smartphone addictions.

Need for harmonious solutions w/o depriving modern technologies

Intros--Maxwell--climate change group #intros

What is the way we can materially impact/incentivize climate change solutions?

Tesla subsidy example

Literally charitable contribution of your choosing//how consumers spend their dollars enables direct investment (in a way)

What if normal non-profit work merged in partnership with a for-profit groups charitable giving fund (limitless funding, economies of scale)---exists a bit today, but everything is fragmented

80% of ppl are likely wasting their time (subpar ENG)

“Lavishly support highly talented people”

“In a world your thoughts or ideas can have a soft landing and can be met with as much kindness as possible”--Jacob

#App Shortcut coach that tracks your actions and occasionally suggests a shortcut to improve efficiency and auto-programming macros for you.

It is a framework that encourages thoughtful selection, and appreciation for the work that you are currently pursuing. It’s not just a job, every single project is a quest that is undertaken with a group of dedicated guild-mates for a specific purpose.

For me, it frames life as an epic adventure. Thinking of myself as an adventurer going on joint missions with fellow adventurers draws a personal parallel to the stories that I’ve read in the past about heroes. The Quest framework allows me personally to embody the hero position, but in an incredibly humble way, as I’m a hero surrounded by other purposeful adventuring heroes as well.
