What if we limit the expression of these two important words: Share and Adapt?

What happens when you limit the voicing of these two important words?
1) Nescience : (Ignorance is a lack of knowledge)
Our eyes and senses are limited by many ways. We are adapted to view the world perfectly only at a particular zooming level. The world becomes blurred when we increase or decrease the zooming level. We can't know what is happening in another country just by our senses. Increasing and decreasing the zooming level requires indirect measurements that are tedious and sophisticated. You need to learn the outcomes of the research, and techniques to make measurements by bringing it down to texts and tools that are compatible with our zooming level.
Without sharing these texts, using and adapting it, our knowledge will be limited to our zooming level and will be ignorant in all other levels.
2) Inequity
Ignorance creates apathy,  apathy creates isolation, and isolation creates inequity. We treat differently to some people because there is a mismatch in our thoughts or believe that we lack the commonness. But we can identify the commonness only if we look deeper, outside our zooming level. Lack of sharing and adapting also gives unfairness in the opportunity to learn.
3) Lack of Creativity and deceleration of research
We don't build anything from scratch, we build things by reusing what its already done. Lack of sharing and adapting will disallow us to improve things that are already done.
4) Lack of Judgement
We make decisions by validating our ideas with different experts and knowledgeable people. Implementing without validation is often disastrous. Sharing allows us to confirm our ideas, get feedback from experts through discussion.

Bacteria and Competition: How it's similar to human? and Why we should have family planning?

Image
Growth of the bacteria refers to an increase in bacterial numbers When bacteria is grown in a liquid nutrient medium, the population is counted at many time intervals, and we get a bacterial growth curve that represents growth of cells over time. Why bacterial growth curve is so important? It gives the idea to learn about the impact of competition in the simplest way. It gives the answer what happens to a population when resources are limited. Bacterial growth best suits even to describe the human population. In science, there are 4 phases, but for simplistic understanding, without any scientific jargon it can be three stages: Thrive, Survive, and Deteriorate Image from wikipedia (A: Lag phase, B: Log phase, C: Stationary phase, D: Death phase) Stage 1: Thrive In this phase bacteria has sufficient resources, so bacteria flourish, prosper or grow vigorously. In science, it's the lag phase and log phase. In the lag phase, there is no cell division, but cells are not dormant, they und...

A new fair democracy inspired by Delegated Proof of Stake algorithm

Image
Preprint link: https://osf.io/82mpk/ dem·oc·racy [democracy democracies] 1) fair and equal treatment of everyone in a country or organization, etc, and their right to take part in making decisions 2) a system of government in which all the people of a country can vote to elect their representatives Yes, most democratic countries fulfill the second definition of democracy, but none to the first definition. Abstract: Democracy is about fair and equal treatment of everyone in a country. But it becomes unrealistic to achieve when political parties have their conflict of interest , and leaders don't have the expertise to make evidence-based policies and neither have the skill and manpower for solving problems that surround our society and ecosystem. The new fair democracy provides an elegant way of governance that separates the representative responsibility according to their specialization and can grow into any complexity. The governance is divided into various departments, and each ...
