Gitcoin grant eligibility

I genuinely cannot believe that basex.com was rejected, even after the appeal.

Meanwhile: River Cleanup

Please explain how your project meets the round-specific eligibility criteria.

We work on climate solutions around the world focusing on rivers with tangible impact.

• Neither solution

• Neither GHG reduction

• Neither core Web3 infra

You know what would be a solution? End-2-end accounting and tracking for externalities, cobenefits, impact, CO2 emissions, 17 SDGs. No single use plastic, everything with QR code that tells who is responsible for the thing.

I get it… It looks good. And they have meme-able name. And they did something. And they put the effort into the application. Nothing against River Cleanup, it’s more about the rules and my attitude towards respecting the rules and making rules better.

I really with there was more root cause system thinking but obviously it is not easy, you can check my post about metacrisis pressure points.

Statement of truth VS Statement under oath

From my email to the court:

Additional explaination:

Regulation of barristers / bar standards

Section 9 criminal statement

Nuanced technicality.

Reason why criminal law is better.

Reason why I engage in this:

These are “properly charged” pieces of content designed to trigger some reacton.

Bottom line:

Knowing the law is not enough - you also need to be able to convince others.

To know when the wording is not applicable is multiple orders of magnitude more difficult than to simply follow what is written.

Just like knowing when lack of knowledge of the law is beneficial.

Know the law so well, that you know where not knowing it is beneficial to you.

Just like here:

If you do not know about the condition, then you are not breaking the law, therefore ignorance is bliss?
