RE: Exponential functions! Or why you probably still massively underestimate Steemit.com. No, you probably don’t really understand them!

Some system changes do happen slowly. We are in the early stages of climate exponential change right now. One that I haven't personally experienced (thank goodness), comes up in the news regularly deals with infectious disease. The exponential function is what scares all the health professionals about the Ebola virus and even with permafrost melting that could release live smallpox virus again. Here's to Steemit behaving like a virus, but one with lots of positive outcomes! Here's to networks!

I think so, the challenge will be to fine tune the feedbackloops in the reward structure so good behaviour like commenting and exchanging links is encouraged rather than blind robo voting which generates upvote income short term but long term does not contribute to the value of the platform! By the way do you know the open ecology project? Given that you are homesteading it might be right up your alley! https://steemit.com/technology/@the-traveller/world-changing-ideas-open-source-ecology-and-the-global-village-construction-set

Thanks for pointing that out! I headed over to that post to check it out!
