what does zip mean in this context?

Edit: better wording.

But how do you verify if that information is actually accurate?

Like for example if a whistleblower says that their organization has something that can do xyz is it possible to verify that through zero knowledge proofs?

@[email protected] and @[email protected] should be able to give their perspectives.

Well I think part of the answer comes from having a society that is more interconnected than we currently have.

If there were people that were both part of the gardening group and part of the builder's group then those people would have the necessary common knowledge to be able to satisfy the needs of both groups.

That is part of why I think a society of anarchists necessarily needs people to be educated in ways that make them a lot more generalist than we are now (hence the emphasis most anarchists have with the idea of self-sufficiency).

Edit: Also in the cases where there isn't significant overlap between the two groups having a third group that does have knowledge of both of them participate in the decision making would also serve the same function.

From what I understood after I watched it and looked into it a bit more is that individuals have roles within the organization and are able to decide their own actions on how to fulfill that role. The actions are informed by the collective understanding of their goals and norms that are formed during their frequent meetings (which are very different in vibes from regular corporate meetings).

This is how I understood it works for most decisions but there a few decisions that fall back on voting which after the vote occurs the individuals are expected to carry out whatever was voted on.

So like it says in the video it is a largely informal structure but one that seems to work very well.

Apparently. But it seems like it only happened around the beginning after the second spike it stabilized for some reason.

Edit: Here is the page with the stats

That happened in March 2024 I think. And Reddit filed for the IPO in December 2023.

Honestly I already believe that this has happened.

My reason for thinking this is because of this:

The spike that happened on October 2023 after the initial spike that happened due to the Reddit protests seems unnatural to me.

Someone gave the explanation of the release of the mobile clients but even then I wouldn't think it would lead to a spike equivalent to the initial one since it would mostly just be people using an account they already had instead of creating a new one.

Like honestly if someone knows what event happened then that made so many new users join I'd appreciate it.

depends on incubation time. Again all of this is hypothetical we won't know how bad it is until it actually happens.
