What Does Open-Source Mean?
Open source software provides four essential freedoms that proprietary software denies:
The freedom to run the program for any purpose - No restrictions on who uses it or how
The freedom to study how the program works and modify it - Source code must be accessible, readable, and changeable
The freedom to redistribute copies - Share exact copies with neighbors, cities, cooperatives
The freedom to distribute modified versions - Share your improvements back to the community


The Scientific Method as Necessary Ritual
As we build infrastructure for humanity's expansion beyond Earth, we must remember: the scientific method is not just about discovering how things work. It is our species' formalized ritual for maintaining awareness of Truth across any distance, our immune system against cognitive fragmentation, our shared practice of sacred doubt that allows emergent patterns to reveal themselves beyond individual projection


Minimum Sustainable Projection
Minimum Sustainable Projection is about humility—recognizing that our projections are always partial, always potentially mistaken, and that the path to truth runs through doubt, distribution, and thermodynamic alignment with what already emerges from reality itself.
