Act
Just as Bitcoin is a decentralized and indestructible monetary transaction system, Comind's primary significant goal is to be an intelligent, decentralized, and indestructible decision-making system.
To ensure fairness from the start, the actions of people helping to develop Comind are recorded and will be rewarded. This is why there are already various recording systems. Comind will integrate a justice system. Helping to save our society is highly important, and Comind aims to reward actions fairly.
The contributions the staff has considered ("✨" indicates the most urgent):
- ✨Become a member
- ✨Open an account
See how to sign up, why, and how it is fair to be rewarded later for helping with registrations.
- ✨Discover Comind
You can explore the ideas within Comind and the various apps available in the member area.
- ✨Communication
-
- ✨Spread the information
-
- Why
- Although development and research do not require many people, supporting Comind enables it to:
- Spread faster when functional
- Better defend against agents of short-term financial forces
- Conduct more experiments
- How
- By introducing people to Comind.
- How Comind records it
- See the explanation under "concretely."
- Answering questions
-
- Why
- To aid understanding of the ideas presented by Comind.
- How
- By:
- Acquiring sufficient knowledge about the ideas presented to locate information for others. The goal is not to quote exactly or avoid criticism but to understand the topic and avoid misrepresentation.
- Responding in the "understand" bubbling sections on various public website pages. You can subscribe to be notified of new bubbles.
- Engaging in discussions on social networks.
- How Comind records it
- In the bubbling
- They are not destroyed, so no action is required.
- On social networks
- By using affirmations. You can prove a social media account is yours and provide the web link if the social network retains the history for a long time.
- ✨Improve content
-
- Why
- Besides missing sections (we are in Beta version), many passages can be improved.
- How
- You can add improvement suggestions in the "improvements" bubbling sections. You can also take responsibility for a page to work on the text more thoroughly. In such cases, it is advisable to contact the staff beforehand to avoid duplicate efforts.
- How Comind records it
- Bubbling sections are not destroyed. A system to record the adoption of an "improvement" bubble will soon be available. For more in-depth work, the staff will declare your work, and you can confirm it.
- ✨Conduct decentralized research
- Decentralized research occurs when outputs are not subject to staff oversight. Currently, since the staff has total control over Comind, there is no strictly decentralized research. However, member choices expressed in the "our choices" section must be considered.
- Conduct centralized research
Research conducted for submission to the staff for publication on the site. It may cover unaddressed topics or incomplete pages. Since it involves submission, prior contact is advisable to avoid unnecessary work. The staff will declare your work through the affirmations system, and you can confirm it (or vice versa). Example topics:
- The precursors
- This involves studying the benefits of identifying and fostering (and how to do so) precursors. As this could accelerate societal progress. Precursors can even be identified through bubble voting: in essence individuals who vote for a bubble when most vote against it and are eventually proven right.
- How to distinguish between good monitoring and denunciation versus bad practices ?
- We can monitore a child near a pool or reporting a crime. But it's different from spying on neighbors to report them for their skin color. This involves determining parameters to evaluate whether a system, rule, or surveillance practice is good or bad, considering the common good in the long term and aspects like happiness, freedom, and security.
- Software development
Comind applications (accessible in the "members" section) are open source but not yet published. A general review is required before publication, after which people can propose enhancements.
Various improvements of different scales will then be needed. Comind uses the Django framework (developed in Python). For instance, developing an app to organize groups or adding information about a bubble idea's implementation and its evaluated benefits.
If your work is not directly recorded via Git, the staff will declare it through the affirmations system, and you can confirm it (or vice versa).
- System administration
Research and development are needed to perform decentralized, secure, and transparent system administration. The idea is to prevent power grabs or system degradation from administration. Blockchain server principles can serve as a basis: the system must withstand hostile actors. Additionally, all actions, except passwords, should be public.
For example, isolated log servers could record actions, or administrators could validate each other's actions in real-time.
- Funding
Funding is not yet open but will be one of the first tasks.
Currently, individuals who contribute energy or money to the common good are often unrewarded or even penalized. This is a great injustice. Thus, it makes sense for Comind to eventually reward contributors, compensating for the money spent significantly. Comind will operate on principles beyond the supremacy of money, so monetary reimbursement is not guaranteed but is expected to yield substantial benefits in terms of good.
