View this post on Hive: 🐝🐝🐝 Steemit is Activating the Power of the Hive Mind 🐝🐝🐝
I have moved all my content away from the now centralized and controlled Steem blockchain to the decentralized Hive blockchain.
Nice post ! In especially like the point you make about basic income, how the steemit platform can actually allow for anyone to increase there living standard, and thus it can be considered like a job . I have always been worried how technology will lead to massive unemployment but steemit is a proof that it can be the other way around. Thanks for sharing
I think that technology can create the utopia on earth. While some will try to use it against us the hive mind will push faster and harder to shuffle the cards in favor of the hive mind which is NOT the 1% at all.
It is an amazing time really, we might reach the first time in history where the control and riches doesn't only lay in the hands of the 1 percent as you say !
I posted on basic income yesterday actually. Didn't really think about Steemit being another source 😊
Cool! I want to build a bot that connects post like yours and mine. I think that would be really helpful.
I have no idea where to start but sounds like a cool idea!
I think it can be one form, but you still have to work for it hehe :) I think that's the way it should be though, otherwise it would be like watching a fixed soccer game, no competition = no excitement:) what do you think ?
I think that the idea of Basic Income could probably work because most people want to do more with their lifes than just eat and sleep. And Basic Income covers just that. Everyone would still want to work to increase their way of living. But now they look for better jobs, maybe even something without payment at all. I see Steemit rather as an addon on top of the basic income. The State should provide for us because we do the same for the State. A society that cares for the basic needs of each member will create a self-drive in us as proven multiple times in pilot projects.
But as much as I love the idea and want it to happen in my lifetime for all human beings as much I fear the day it happens. Because the first months might end in chaos because so many things would change drastically. It will be like hardfork 19 on Steemit where they quadruppled the default upvote strength. The days after teveryone was upvoting like crazy because it was so lucrative all of a sudden.
There are many projects or 'experiments' in progress over a fair few countries -

I hope that they will work together ironing out issues and then come up with a master plan.
I also thought this section from the Swift Demand site was interesting as it talks about how their coin could work globally ,i.e. not holding the same value everywhere.

Cheers!
Hey thanks for the link, I never heard about that. It is a basic income coin?
Yes it is.
Early stages but that's the idea, and planned to suit inflation/global exchange rate too.
Worth a look and little effort, sounds like B E to me :)
What is B E?
Well I think u kind of convinced me a bit that it could be quite nice hehe. It's a bit questionable to live this robotic life we have today, we are in a way more enslaved today then ever before. Atleast if you were a farmer back in the days you choose your work amount and got paid accordingly, you could also choose to just sit down and relax a little bit. Doing that at work would not be so appreciated
The world will change so dramatically in the next 15 years that with or without basic income EVERYTHING will be different. Maybe we don't need that anymore or maybe we need it more than ever. Time will tell. But certainly the most interesting time in human history to live in.
It definitely is and I'm excited and hopeful ! By the way I wish you a nice weekend my friend ! Do you drink a lot of the nice coffee over there which I saw in the last video ?
I do drink a lot of coffee. ;) Weekend is going to be epic!
I think that if I'm receiving income for being alive, then I'm OK with that!
Then i have more time to do what i love, which may not provide any income at all :D
Check out my comment above, so both you and @dandesign86 see it.
An interesting read, @stellabelle would like this too I think. Mining the hive minds... ooh maybe a blog title there 😁
Nice work!
Well, drop her a note. I would be happy to invite her to my blog. ;)
Done :)
Thx. Here is a Tip! for you.
Thanks! 😁

Great post
Did you even read it?
@flauwy
Do u really think i didnt read all those post?
Some of them are based on photography,what do u expect me to say?,am trying to read my feeds and create a good impression with my followers and here u stand trying to criticize me!!!....am just a new guy here who spends almost 18 hours a day on steemit all in the name of . ...be nice and dont judge by first sight bro..u never really know what a brother is going through
Look, maybe you read it quickly. I understand and that is totally fine. There is tons of stuff to read and I have been where you are now a few weeks ago. Maybe you should understand that a comment like
good postis a wasted comment. It doesn't make any impression, doesn't invite to reply or open a conversation. And the least thing is that it will earn an upvote from anybody. So you are wasting just your own time as well as from those reading it. If you want to show that you appreciated the post you can leave a bit more than that. See it as a lesson of advice. Others will flag this behaviour, I see it all the time.Here, take a Tip! for taking the time to create a proper defense. No hard feelings I hope!
Ok..tnx

Some people have the ability to read 3 lines atimes
So, it's normal
Tnk u @knowledges
Some people make very long post...i definitely can't read everything, the most important thing is to understand what the post is about and learn from it
Interesting post... I still have not been able to earn much on here, and the only thing I have managed to do is attract 272 followers... but what I really need to do is figure out how to do what you are doing. I would love to do research for pay in steem... I used to be a journalist. If you have any ideas on how I could help other journalists by doing fact checking or research - please let me know. Thanks. (Oh and I've upvoted and followed you)
Hi Somena, I am not sure if I understand the question. You want to help other journalists with their fact checking? You want to sell that service? You could create a post in #steemgigs for that. But I don't think that is what you mean, is it?
Hi, thanks for responding... I'm looking for work in Journalism that's not the actual reporting... helping editors and resource people with fact checking as an example. OR just doing research on stories that might help a journalist or editor with preparing a themed edition... that sort of thing. I'm sort of grasping at straws because I don't know how this is done anymore. Newspapers and media outlets used to have investigative journalist teams to do investigative reporting but so much of that has gone by the way side in the past decade. Thanks for the advice about #steemgigs I will check that out for sure.
Please contact @cryptoctopus. Can't say more. Tell him what you told me.

And I feel the video was worth 15min of my attention. Some may have a negative impression of the term "hive mind" from a certain TV series several (like maybe 17 or more) years ago, but this highlights the awesome power of "collective", applied in different ways. Great post & perspective.
Before I forget it: Great Comment. Here is a Tip! for your effort.
Having been on here less than two weeks, there are a lot of "firsts". Your tip was another one, thanks!
There is always something new to discover on the platform.
Do you mean the Borg in Star Trek Next Generation? There was also Hive in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. who controlled everyone he came in contact with.
Yes, Borg. I stopped watching TV (on purpose anyway) not too long after.
I don't have a TV since 2004. But I watch stuff online.

Im quite active on steem....but seems like luck is playing foul with me.....😭😭😭😭
I don't think that luck has much to do with it. I checked your profile and what can I say about that? Tons of articles flagged for plagiarising other content? That is very bad and will be countered from Steemians with all they have. People want the platform to succeed and when Steemit becomes known for sharing stolen content we cannot achieve that.
So you need to create unique content. I think it is a slightly different case with videos. If you post videos from others it is not cool but sometimes it is also useful. It is not illegal to post a YouTube video from somebody else. But it is in fact illegal in most countries to post a copyright protected image and most images are copyright protected.
Try to use ONLY public domain photos for your posts. You will find them on https://pixabay.com/ I get all my pictures from there. Only fanart and promotional images are ok if you give the source from where you got them. It is a grey area but usually companies like the exposure of their Intellectual Property. Not sure how that works with Steemit money legally though.
I can only hope that steemit can act as my basic supplemental income at the minimum, lol. I dont need it, but it would be great if I can free up a few hundreds more dollars for investments.
I came over to steemit, because I had an internal company interview with the social media department. I interviewed, but wasnt hired. Its a bummer, but I found out about this site shortly later on, and decided to give it a try. Afterall, I'm still being paid to post content, right?
You probably were lucky that you didn't get the job because now you are free to invest more time into Steemit where you eventually can earn more than at any social media company ;)
Yeah, lol, not quite because I still work for the same company, just different departments. But I'm not so interested in going to social media department now, because I can definitely build up my reputation and earn more potential income here during my off-hours.
Well, work on it and who knows, maybe in half a year you quit your job for good. :)
