RE: Steemians' Stress Survival Guide

Dear @insight-out

Excellent choice of topic. I just visited your account to notice that you like to write about psychology. One of my fav topics :)

I am NOT going to use what you've shared without your permission anywhere

I was just wondering. Do you think that people need to be asked for permission to quote/use their comments? Personally I don't think so since it's all on public blockchain, but I still would like to know what's your opinion.

Thanks for good and smooth read :)

ps. I hope you don't mind that I will share this post with few close friends, as I found it quite interesting and worth reading.

Have a great upcoming week,
Piotr

Hello, Piotr! Thanks for leaving such a lovely comment! :)

I've just visited your blog and saw that you are also interested in AI. AI and Psychology go well together, I think :) I am a psychologist and wanted to make a psychology blog while I am on my maternity leave. That's how I landed on the Steemit Blockchain a year ago :)

I was just wondering. Do you think that people need to be asked for permission to quote/use their comments?

Well, there is not a straight forward answer to this, I guess. There are two aspects in my opinion: a legal one and an ethical one. Legally speaking, I don't think that you need permission because, as you said, the comments are already on the blockchain (forever impregnated :D).

On the other hand, I think it's a matter of professional ethics and respect to your Steemit friends/readers to ask for permission to use the comments outside the Steemit blockchain (for a study, research paper, another blog, etc.). In my opinion, If you use the comments on the Steemit blockchain, it's just a part of the dialog that is going on the blockchain.

What do you think?

Have a great week you, too!

Dear @insight-out

Thank you for that amazing comment. I only had a chance to read it now. Appreciate.

I was feeling rather lonely on Steemit lately

Do you still feel that way? I personally thought that someone with your background (psychology) and experience will handle feeling of being lonely very well. I guess you're still just a human after all :)

What do you think?

I don't usually have judgments and opinions. I'm this kind of guy who is trying to measure what other people think and adjust each time, depending on the person I'm dealing with.

Yours, Piotr

I'm this kind of guy who is trying to measure what other people think and adjust each time, depending on the person I'm dealing with.

Hm, that's interesting! This seems to be a very helpful strategy, especially if you have to adjust to a new environment. Now, as you say it, I realize that I act in a very similar way when I am put in some new circumstances. But I have never truly noticed it. :D Hey, thanks for the insight! :)
