Misanthropic can't help but keep stepping on its dick and showing everyone it's indeed a supply chain risk. It's part of their "safety" DNA, and their scaremongering which started with its founder at "Open"AI back when I'm told ChatGPT couldn't string more than a few sentences together.

Seems like our favorite African-American read _The Innovators Dilemma_ (one of the most important business books ever written, and I can vouch for its core data set on hard disk drives, having lived through the same period using them as the author).

Context for this comment: SpaceX really is closing down its Falcon line of business, including the reusable payload part (Cargo and Crew Dragon).

Besides soon needing the people who are key to making it work for Starship, _not_ needing so much obnoxious government business (and can his Deep State protectors continue that role anyway??), at least in its old terms (and nobody thought to pay to ensure SpaceX would continue):

"LuvEngineering

"SpaceX is a disruptor. They came in, announced plans to do a certain thing (reusable rockets), and the established industry said two things 'It will not work' and 'If it does work, it is a bad idea'. SpaceX persevered and became a market leader by their innovations, pricing, cadence, & reliability.

"Disruptors typically inspire imitators and SpaceX is no exception. I think 2027-2028 is the year most of the imitators will come online.

"Typically, disruptors kill the established industry and replace it until a new disruptor comes along to replace them. This is generally regarded as being a normal and healthy development cycle.

What is unique about SpaceX is that they never lost the disruptor mindset. SpaceX has announced plans to disrupt and kill their own established monopoly. There will be about two years of overlap between the imitators coming online and Falcon9 going offline for NASA. Other users will have less/no overlap.

"I think Starship will be just as disruptive as Falcon9. More importantly, SpaceX is now disrupting the launch location industry. They are building launch and manufacturing sites/factories/pads at an unbelievable rate.

"There is a lot of angst about Starship only launching Starlink and Starmind [AI datacenters _in space!_], but I think the scale of what SpaceX envisions will allow for launching much more than just that.

Falcon9 is the most prolific launcher on the planet, but most of the space industry is just using its spare capacity. Starship will be the same. Starship’s spare capacity will dwarf the rest of the industry, just as Falcon9 does now.

"Between the imitators and the Starship spare capacity, the future is bright - as long as the government doesn’t overreact and kill the goose that lays the golden eggs."

Note the article being replied to is written by a Jew who _must_ hate Musk, and he lies quite a bit in it, like about there being "no evidence" Starship is going to do anything but Pez dispenser payloads.

Although obviously that "pizza box" form factor will become a _de facto_ industry standard for anything that can fit in it.

The document, signed by Spanberger and Secretary Candi Mundon King on September 4, 2026, prompted attorney Tim Anderson to demand an attorney general probe and King's resignation, citing incompetence.

This follows similar errors like rights given to 'Betty No Last Name' and deceased people, contrasting Spanberger's praise for her 'talented, diverse' cabinet. [AKA no white men, and only one white woman, the photo has become notorious.]

Nothing says "restoring the rule of law" like having your police storm one of your highest level courts (not sure if Poland's 🇵🇱 "Supreme Court" is really higher in the area of the Constitutional Tribunal's remit of what it says on its label, Its history goes back to a request of Solidarity in 1981 a few weeks before martial law was imposed).

This is why paying attention to things like Brazilian politics is perhaps worthwhile, today's modern Left is globalist and one unpunished crime encourages another.

And see the criminal and small c and/or large C unconstitutional campaign to pack or abolish the US Supreme Court because it's minority hard Left. Although the two right of center women come through for the most important cases, like the nation destroying one on "birthright citizenship."

There's a _reason_ reactors with positive void coefficients are outlawed by white letter law I recently looked up, I read long ago that (((Teller))) used his influence to bring this about.

Thus no CANDU heavy water moderated, light water cooled reactors in the US. Their two big advantages are they can use natural uranium that's sufficiently rich in U-235 as found in Canada for fuel, and can be dual use (many if not most people don't consider the latter to be a good thing). Yep, we define ourselves as Not Americans and won't depend on enriched uranium from the US.

Makes them triple losers as I count things radioactive, when you add the Therac-25 and their suffering the first reactor meltdown, and yes, it was of CANDU principle design. A research reactor, and Jimmy Carter was one of many tasked with cleaning it up, per him this gave him his relentless hatred of all things nuclear, despite being one of (((Rickover's))) nuclear qualified Navy officers.

I won't argue with the general proposition of PhoxFriday (npub16nd…2ysl) but we know a _lot_ about the Chernobyl catastrophe and none of these claims make sense.

A turbine operator could not by himself have caused the accident (see details below). The Israeli attack on the Iraq reactor as a motivation makes absolutely no sense. The RBMK reactor design is inherently dual use, but besides their dedicated weapons grade plutonium reactors they had sixteen in operation in 1986, with one more added the next year, and seven are still in operation :cirnoForReals:

Note for the following you must understand positive feedback (it's ___bad___ in _control systems_) and thus the implication of positive void coefficients from the light water neutron poison that is used to cool the reactor, while graphite is used to moderate (slow down) the neutrons so they'll be easily adsorbed by uranium-235 atoms.

Voids are bubbles of steam in the light water, which decreases its neutron poisoning, that is, absorption of neutrons, converting light water with one proton to deuterium with one neutron, and tritium with two.

The people responsible are those who managed the control rods and on up. Rough mostly from memory sequence of events plus Wikipedia mostly for numbers:

1. Decide to do a test to use residual steam to power a turbine after an abrupt reactor shutdown ... but not from one running at full thermal power.
1. Start bringing down the power, nameplate 3200 MW to 700-1000 MW.
1. Utility grid controller requires more power, and this is halted.
1. Standard xenon-135 neutron poisoning brings it down to 500 MW (one of many surprises in the Manhattan project redeemed by conservative design).
1. For insufficiently known reasons of why, not how I think, it dropped to 30MW, 5% of what's needed for the test. This further reduces burn off of xenon-135 (to xenon-136).
1. The system is now in a weird, uncharted state, and gets more so as:
1. Pull out control rods, most to their max limits.
1. Power slowly goes back up to 200MW.
1. Test finished, scram the reactor.
1. Minor detail: the ends of the control rods are also moderating graphite (!!!).
1. As these ends displaced neutron poisoning light water, thermal power spikes to 30,000 MW, way past any normal design margin.

That is, as thermal power goes up, voids increase, so power continues to go up, more and bigger voids, power continues to go up, this is positive feedback. Oops :saddest:

This Jew suspected of causing the Chernobyl accident would have to be a real life James Bond to bring it about as a lowly turbine operator.

Ram Chhetri came to the US as a refugee, but this might be worst day of his life: It's the moment he realizes the $80k-$160k/year salary he's bilked from Medicaid for no-show work is coming to an end because @realdailywire caught the truth on camera.

We conducted months of surveillance that shows why "home care aide" is now the _*most common job*_ in states like NY, CA, MN, and PA: Because a large part of those jobs are unambiguous Medicaid fraud.

Thanks to home care, Bhutanese refugees now make more money than actual PA families. The state doesn't just look the other way, but helps them get away with it. Converting federal health dollars into a universal basic income for certain communities relieves the financial burden they place on the state.

[This is a bit off because Medicaid is a "Federal-state "partnership." It blew a bit unanticipated hole in NY state's budget not many months before Cuomo's Final Solution to the Medicaid Problem (sending patients with active COVID back to nursing homes, where Medicaid is the payer of last resort).]

The scammers easily deceive the feds' woefully broken monitoring system. You'll see Ram pull into a driveway for 2 minutes in the morning, then 2 minutes in the evening. He clocks in and out of his shift from the right place, and the GPS system doesn't notice that he goes home in between.

$20 an hour doesn't sound like much, but at 77 hours a week, it's $80k–and it's easy to bill huge hours when you don't actually have to work them. And that's just for the low-level guys in this scheme.

Good name for an X account, although it'll probably be reaped by Indians sooner or later. But that's not all bad, Indians do not have the savvy of Jews, for example, to not _completely_ abuse and insult others. See their unprecedented loss of status in the US in so far less than twelve months.

Again, compared to Jews, surely an artifact of Jewish proximity to whites, which Indians did not "benefit" from. Plus Ashkenazi Jews, probably all Caucasian Jews as populations, are a lot smarter than the sorts of Indians who are coming over now.

And there are many, many interesting facets to Israeli and Jewish politics.

Golda Meir? She got Israel's first passport so she could become an ambassador to the Soviet Union, _where she created the conditions that allowed Stalin to finally move against its Jews_ as they showed their real loyalties.

They went from nearly top dogs in the Communist Party and its organs of repression to a reviled minority that was shut out of the best schools etc. No small own goal, shall we say. Or you could turn it around and view its results in getting a _lot_ of Jews to make aliyah ... but that was fatal to the Left's lock on the country that she was a part of. These Jews knew very well where Leftism led to.

As a Western-adjacent polity, Israel's history has a lot to teach us. See my comments on _Early Medieval Jewish Policy in Western Europe_ by Bernard S. Bachrach. They had a whip hand, offered both military and monetary power in that period which was ruled by Germanic nobility after the fall of Rome.

They didn't quite understand what they inherited, and of course the Jews lost that power by the late Middle Ages, when the nastiest Ashkenazi showed their twisted sense of revenge in the so-called "blood libel." Fast forward and now they're got a great if not primary responsibility for the mass slaughter of Slavs in the Ukraine, a people they've hated since the 19th Century

The alt-history viewpoint is that they'd be a footnote in history if not for their physical proximity to the West, but....

"Philo semite=non who has a deep interest, love, and respect for Jews & Israel"

As a recovering philo-Semite (grew up in a Judenfrei area, only came into contact with them for education and career, then I read Kevin MacDonald's trio and became an anti-Semite for the same reason as he, immigration), I don't think this concept necessarily extends to Israel.

I certainly don't "love" Israel and I'm not sure I ever did (ditto for Jews, like is as strong as it got), but I have a "deep interest" and respect for its military prowess.

The most modern war I've deeply studied is the Yom Kippur War in 1973, between its first _tactical_ use of mobile SAMs, and first generation ATGMs (Egyptian grunts continued to add to the reputation by using the Sagger _which is guided by a joystick!!!_), and the overwhelming odds on its eastern front's massive tank battle.

And of course a "deep interest" pretty much became required post 9/11 :saddest:

But there are other lessons to be learned, like how the IDF went from being mostly skunked in Lebanon and betrayed by corruption at home in 2006, to removing Hezbollah as an quasi-existential threat (of keeping Israelis pinned to shelters), a crown jewel in Iran's Shia Crescent.

And Iranians are fairly smart, not African-American dumb like the Arabs surrounding Israel, also don't have their organizational pathologies (officer corps, fear of coups).

They build a serious strategic arrangement against the Little Satan and under Netanyahu the IDF systemically defeated it in detail.

No small thing, and it says something that despite at minimum his implicit responsibility for the October 7th catastrophe, on Tuesday his Jewish coalition beat the Jewish one against him 53-48 seats in their parliament.

You can also admire him and his two brothers for their entirely voluntary service in uniform in the IDF's equivalent to the SAS, a very big difference from our leaders since WWII veteran G. H. W. Bush or W (two years active duty learning how to fly an interceptor that was useless in Vietnam by the time he finished).

A very different political outcome from Golda Meir's and her coalition (so far) after 1973. She was out in eight months, and in 1977 the Left lost the executive and legislative lock it enjoyed since the founding in 1948.

Also interesting like Brazil has been lately, a kritarchy (rule by judges since the Left refused to accept its defeat), and lawfare against political opponents, like the US neither is really a republic anymore.

Which is not to say there aren't a great many reasons to dislike Israel, like on criminal matters that touch on the US or worse. See for example the binary options scam and how long it took to nominally Shut It Down. And non-STEM Jews are no prize.

It’s a complete perversion and total inversion of what the justice system in this country is supposed to be, but Democrats care more about protecting Democrats and hurting Republicans than they care about the justice system, let alone the country.

John Ʌ Konrad V
@johnkonrad

In 1993, when I was 16, I landed my first yacht delivery job: sailing a magnificent yacht from New York City to an exclusive yacht club on Long Island Sound.

There was just one problem. We were teenagers, and we were terrified the marina manager or police would stop us before we even left the dock.

[...]

Perfect getaway.

It was a glorious day on the water. Blue skies, fair winds, not a care in the world.

Until we approached the East River.

That’s when tiny kittens started crawling out of a deck box.

[...]

Picture three teenage boys walking toward this grand clubhouse in borrowed penny loafers, navy blazers and slicked-back hair, carrying a box of kittens.

That’s when we realized the party was a wedding.

And that’s when one of my buddies looked up at the veranda, which was packed with beautiful women in their twenties, and shouted:

“ANYONE WANT A KITTEN?”

I have never witnessed anything like what happened next.

An honest-to-god stampede.

Women came pouring off the veranda, practically trampling one another to get their hands on a kitten.

Suddenly, three awkward teenage boys were THE most popular men at the wedding.

:cirnoHeh: :gyate_rin:

So when my mother heard a strange woman calling her house and flirtatiously asking for John Konrad, she assumed it was another woman who’d seen my father [NYFD John Konrad IV] on America’s Bravest Sunday night special or something.

Her voice dropped about three octaves.

“WHICH John?”

The woman of my dreams hesitated.

“Excuse me?”

“There are TWO John Konrads in this house. Which one do you want?”

There is a segment of the so-called “Christian” nationalist crowd that has given itself completely over to Satan. I’ve never had more resolve to defeat these subversive demons invading the Right and invading Christianity.

Readers proposed context

"Deport the parents and give them the chance to take their baby back home with them" - Joel

https://x.com/gherfferson/status/2114715688019644604?s=20

OK, and it appears this is a legit statement from the DHS on the situation; unless the emphasis added part is a wrong or a lie ... again, these "Christians" are at best of the cafeteria type:

“On October 21, ICE arrested Samuel Sey, an illegal alien from Ghana, at the Columbus International Airport. Sey entered the United States legally in 2022 but overstayed his length of admission by over four years, in violation of our nation’s laws. ___Sey has no pending applications and accepted voluntary departure.___ He will remain in ICE custody until removed from the United States.

“We do not pick and choose which laws to enforce or where to enforce them.

“[CBP Home App with its $3,000 direct to you costs a lot less than arresting you etc.] We encourage every person here illegally to take advantage of this offer and reserve the chance to come back to the U.S. the right legal way to live the American dream. If not, you will be arrested ___and deported without a chance to return___.”

Harsh ... I'd say a future Democratic admin might let him back, but not with him being a Christian et. al.

That's ignoring the most common explanation: in a world of warnings, especially for something like October 7th, how do you pick out the signal from the noise?

For that and the totally obvious sort of attack 9/11 was (even Tom Clancy used such an attack in a novel prior to it), how do you pick out real intent vs. aspirations?

Pearl Harbor is in a further category, FDR wanted to see the world burn, and Japan most of all as far as I've gathered. But did he see Imperial Japan being so ambitious as to lunge that far? There's also cultural blindness on both sides that lead to it.

There's also all sorts of small-ish things. We were blinded for 9/11 warnings due to one or more firewalls in the Deep State set up by Clinton (and one of the people who did that was of course on the commission to investigate how it happened).

Israeli intelligence has a strategic failure of imagination in believing Egypt would not attack after the Six-Day War before reconstituting its air force; instead in the Yom Kippur War their army advanced under the cover of SA-6 SAMs, protected by ZSU-23-3 guns. For October 7th, I'm pretty sure Hamas through Iran did not expect the result to be the complete dismantling of the Shia Crescent, the end of Hezbollah as an quasi-existential threat, the shattering of Iran and the deaths of the leaders of all three.

The radar set that saw the Japanese planes forming up was shut down early in the morning because of gasoline rationing in Hawaii, getting fuel there costs, and still costs a lot, and a hell of a lot of admirals did not really believe in radar for quite some time. One paid with his life for that in an intense night fight in the Slot eleven months later that also cost the life of another, although he was generally just not up to the job.

Not so small, except in the particular examples for 9/11, was the force of decades of preaching against "racism," which continues to the day, was in fact one of W's biggest messages after 9/11. Told a lot of us we were on our own, the government had no interest in protecting us vs. further making cold war on us, and that had all sorts of consequences including a further nail or set of them in the coffin of gun control in most of the nation.

TL:DR: Hindsight is 20/20.

"In a Major Shocker, the Woke Syrupeans of British Columbia Lurch Right"

A snap election went ___horribly___ wrong, "British Columbia elected its first Conservative Party majority in 98 years, with the Conservative Party of BC leading in 64 of the legislature’s 93 districts."

Perhaps because:

"Since last August, I've been keeping tabs here at HotAir as Eby and his gang of indigenous First Nation thieves have been busy turning woke 'land acknowledgments' into sanctified 'land grabs' for his native allies. They've been snatching the keys from Canadians who have owned and paid taxes on properties going back nearly 200 years, with full participation of those 'Crown court' and King's Bench' appointed judges the Albertans are trying to free themselves of.

"It started with a blockbuster judgment against the tiny town of Richmond, that yes, a nomadic tribe that set up camp to fish the river for a couple of weeks every couple of years hundreds of years ago, did actually have an 'Aboriginal claim' to the land that the town was now situated on. Oh - that included all the private property too."

That was just a start:

"First Nations' claims on BC land exploded to the point where a map had to be issued, and to what I suppose was their shocked horror, 95% of BC found the ground under their feet might well belong to some Indian tribe they'd never heard of.

"In March of this year, those cheerful wokesters in trendy Vancouver were surprised to find that the Canadian government had signed away all of their waterfront property and a bunch of their fishing rights to yet another tribe."

Lots more details of giveaways in the article.

Imagine lots of kids racing to build big toy forts for supercomputers.

The small new kids (neoclouds) only have fort money and no other toys. Banks just stopped lending them more.

Big kids like SpaceX already have rockets and internet money, so banks still give them huge loans.

Most little forts will stay half-built or get taken over. Only a few strong ones survive.

Chamath Palihapitiya
@chamath

As someone with a portfolio of __energized__ land assets here is what I am seeing:

[Saw an item on Amazon, a hyperscaler, having billions in GPUs collecting dust waiting for power to run them. See second link.]

1. Neoclouds are disorganized and poorly capitalized. Some are definitely better than others however.

[Brave AI: "specialized AI-first cloud infrastructure providers that focus exclusively on delivering GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS) to power artificial intelligence, machine learning, and high-performance computing workloads."]

2. Hyperscalers are intractable, bureaucratic organizations that take 3 months to do an NDA and want 18mo escrow periods. We built our portfolio by competing against these terms because of our speed and simplicity. The more future assets orgs like ours win, the bigger the problem for the hyperscalers downstream (see 3).

3. There are delays in the existing pipeline that will catch people off guard in 2027. Hyperscalers will (obviously) react by focusing on their own internal compute needs over any third party. If the third party is a model company, they will tell them to go through their model router where they will also take a non-trivial vig. Them telling Ant they have no compute for them (rumored in Ant’s S-1) if true is a huge tell that this is already happening.

[Model: grind on data. Inference: generate results for users.]

All of this is to say that it does look like there will be a lot of partially stranded compute and compute sitting in inventory in 2027 than is currently forecasted. This is bought and paid for but effectively underearning (below total cost of capital) or collecting dust. We see this as true for everyone - model companies, hyperscalers, neoclouds except ONE (you can guess which one).

[SpaceX of course.]

This dislocation will benefit two kinds of orgs: the non-bureaucratic big scalers who can build industrial scale quickly and the nimble, well capitalized players feeding them.

2027 will be a turbulent year because it will clear out a bunch of wrong/bad bets. It will also be a consolidation year for a few.

Elon Musk
@elonmusk

Replying to @Yuchenj_UW
I think we’re going to see a lot of stranded compute in partially complete data centers

[The reply:]

Elon Musk
@elonmusk

Pretty much.

As of the past few weeks, debt markets have almost entirely shut off access to money for any company that doesn’t have substantial revenue independent of AI data centers.

SpaceX closed $40B of debt for GPUs, but we’re investment grade and have Starlink & launch revenue.

That means the 200+ neoclouds are going to see guppy-level death and consolidation. Some will make it through, but not many.

"The law has faced intense criticism and reform debate following high-profile cases in 2024–2025 where citizens were investigated for calling Chancellor Friedrich Merz 'Pinocchio' or 'Lügenfritz' (Lying Fritz). In 2025, German police registered a record 4,792 investigations under this statute."

You don't support your position ___at all,___ You say this is bad for us and that's certainly right, but that's a moral, not practical stance. You're willing to sacrifice an untold number of white careers and literal lives to the opportunity cost of trying to get a CS degree and then failing to launch.

Just checked the numbers for the world's four best CS schools, and except for the special case of CMU where it only accepts 135 students per year, they aren't great. Worse, you're not going to get into any of these, and I'm not sure about the second tier that's still worth getting a degree from. The rest are worthless except as a piece of paper.

Yes, I'm generally recommending smart whites _perhaps_ choose other majors like aero-astro (which is a _lot_ harder, and its health depends on things like the Left not being able to take revenge on Musk), but generally aim for a trade. If I was in high school today that's what I'd do.

Gaaah, by reducing the trades to "plumber" first and foremost, you show us you have no respect for them. Machinist and electrician are a couple that require more intellectual talent, and there's the factor of Boomers aging out of trades in general. Ah, vehicle repair is another, although for consumer autos as I understand it a large fraction of that is rigged.

Although contra a point made by @amerika@fsebugoutzone.org this will make it even harder to reproduce, not many women respect blue collar workers or will stay with them. I've seen or more like heard second hand of that problem.

But, seriously, I question your _wisdom_ when you tell people to play a game that is catastrophically rigged against them. It is not written in stone "We are gonna make it." _playing the current game._

In fact, this sort of thing has got me reconsidering my stance against accelerationism ... there are no good paths at the moment. The illustration has at least a good chance of coming to be as your Panglossian optimism ... and no one can predict the timing (preppers as "survivalists" got started in a big way at the end of the 1970s...).

There's a difference between "jobs" and their careers which you are describing.

And that doesn't mean there won't be a huge discontinuity where demand for "good programmers" is massively outstripped by supply. Ask for example someone who lived through the dot com crash.

"companies actually need to function and be productive"

Read up on Pournelle's iron law of bureaucracy and more generally the agent principal problem. Managers of a long enough established company aren't generally interested in it being able to "function and be productive," but their own position in it.

Plenty are also sociopaths. They are known to pull stunts like firing the very most "actually capable" person and telling the survivors of a layoff that this shows no one is safe. Even if their policies like this actually kill the company.

I've seen that at ones small and once _huge,_ and this also coupled with the H-1B game as @amerika@fsebugoutzone.org noted in his reply. See also what happens when a pajeet becomes a manager....

(Seriously, if one becomes your manager, or on up the ladder, start looking for another job ___immediately.___ Even if they keep you, they'll treat you with absolute callousness. You aren't part of their jati, are probably below them in caste (for example lots of Brahmans are here because of overt discrimination against them in India) and you aren't really human to them. And this is combined with things like izzat.)

Also run away from any company that introduces stack ranking. Microsoft traded the latter for a pajeet CEO :cirno_shrug: Amazon's probably the most prominent one still doing that; you might have been hired just so you could be fired to meet a quota. See also Google using that for promotions.

See also the terrible age discrimination which cuts directly against creating "good programmers." Prepare for job hunts to start getting very difficult when you're around thirty five, and worse in the US when you hit or are closer to forty.

There's lots and lots more; number one, network like crazy.

"Germany and the UK are talking about national sacrifice and resuming the draft"

Talk is cheap, and here particularly so after both their governments have made war on their "legacy" white populations who both have a (theoretical) stake in their countries and are smart enough to prosecute high tech warfare.

Maybe also some Turks in Germany and some Indians from jati that are smart in the U.K., but otherwise they're sliding towards civil war with whites vs. migrants, especially the new ones, if not already in it which is where I'd say the U.K. is possibly within epsilon of.

Or there's a TL;DR that their ruling trash are in a bubble, which includes a determination to elect a new people from some of the worst of the worst of the Third World, while believing that doesn't change their military capabilities, plus no willingness to divert significant money from "social programs" (significant parts of which are devoted to migrants) to their militaries.

Also, Germany has no nukes, and I doubt the nuclear armed NATO members will risk using them in a war with Russia, whatever happens on German land. One theory BTW is that the SMO is the result of a German proxy war with Russia, and that's certainly a factor.

Russia also has the option of turning off the lights in Germany, not only is it providing them a fair amount of LNG, two can play at the game of destroying energy facilities. For a _long_ time that'll be a big issue due to the damage Gulf nations are taking in petrochemical infrastructure. Heck, Russia doesn't even have to worry about the concerns of attacks on nuclear power plants, seeing as Germany turned off all of them, even continuing that after the SMO started.

For that matter, although this is aligned with your thesis, Russia has not done a partial, let alone total mobilization. Have people forgotten the Eastern Front in WWII?

Rick Addante, PhD
@RickAddante

I have no idea about Michigan. But, as someone functionally in stride with Brandon Gill [Congressman who did investment banking and married the daughter of Dinesh D'Souza], demographically and ideologically, if offer that there is no recruiting apparatus for that in place writ large. I've looked into it, here is what I've found:

A guy like Brandon (who doesn't have Dinesh d'Souza/network as a father in law), would be white, male, married, with kids: that means he has the hardest time getting jobs and advancing against the DEI apparatus in HR that *still *exists and vs H1B visas, and thus likely need a dual income household of wife also working like a dog. With mortgage/rent/gas/groceries prices its impossible to save much.

So, you/USA are asking a guy to stop working. Start campaigning, and still pay the bills but with no road map for how those gaps are going to be filled.

Oh yeah, amd they are supposed to be a Hammer, go hard on politically controversial stuff, placing future hiring at risk, look sharp, be in shape, be pleasant and charismatic, yet cutting and sharp, and oh yeah: raise a bunch of money.

And he should ask the GOP elders to help him, even though they hate him and spent decades pushing the paul ryans forward and these young guys backwards, so that their line goes up on real estate and aren't called racist.

Sounds easy and exciting, right? That's what is faced by young guys to run for big office, while trying to repopulate the the country and raise kids on dual incomes.... in Michigan.

Many dont know that GOP groups like
@SpaceCoastYR recently had a bunch of *Boomers* (not Young republicans) close down meetings and refund young memberships so as to avoid Young republicans from having a voice and voting in the groups upcoming elections, a month ago, hot in the midterm election season of getting young future Brandon Gills involved to fill the ranks.

Ahistorial and basically bullshit.

The biggest issue is that the Right and the Left have been in a cold civil war since before the founding, and as I noted about Rabin often enough a lethal one.

Expanding on that, the Left lost their lock on political power from the founding in 1948 through 1977, after their disastrous and high causality handling of the 1973 Yom Kippur War.

So being the Left they refused to accept the "will of the people," instead captured the court system to the extent it already wasn't their's, and extended its remit all the way to installing commissars inside the government that's nominally elected by the people. Oh, yeah, no formal constitution, although that's perhaps the norm for Westminster parliamentary systems.

The country was convulsed much worse than the US currently is by the Right starting to roll this back in the months before October 7th. How long the Right's patience on this will last is unclear; see also the blatant lawfare against Netanyahu. Even citizens who don't like him should pay attention, this is one way republics end.

They're holding elections right now; the ultra-Jews are almost entirely a problem to the extent they're a key numerical faction foe a Right wing governing coalition. I suspect a legit majority of the country would approve of bringing the hammer for their general refusal to serve in the IDF. As you would expect in a long war like this as Netanyahu and company has defeated in detail Iran's proxies, with only Iran is left.

The "settler" ethnic cleansing issue is a problem, but post-October 7th is exactly what you would expect. Again, by the old rules, irredentist Palestinians in the Gaza and the West Bank would have long been eradicated, the men killed, the women and children sold as slaves. Today it's a foreign policy problem.

(This is almost entirely separate from the 2.1 million Arabs who are citizens, have their own political parties ... and commit almost all the nation's murders, usually criminal gangs fighting :saddest: Their "nigger problem," same IQ as US African-Americans, but not a fraction of their genes for violence.)

So, yeah, the threat of a century or almost so long cold civil war turning into a hot one, after their external threats have been significantly whittled down? When Leftists are one of the factions? Must be a day that ends in 'y'.

That's a "mostly, though not entirely, ceremonial" position as Westminster parliamentary systems work, compare to King Charles III.

The _minor_ detail here is that Yitzhak Rabin was the Left wing faction commander in an affair that killed 16 Right wingers with artillery and small arms fire, including what I'm sure was M2s firing AP ammo.

OK, while some say he actually operated the cannon, I suppose it was "words" to open fire that ended up killing those very much not fellow Jews, but.... And of course the Left is still doing the cold civil war thing in the country, countering a particularly evil part of that was the big issue before October 7th.

So many see his 1995 assassination while PM by someone on the Right as rough justice. Not that you should ever let a culture of political assassination arise in a potentially working polity, see Japan before WWII as the recent object lesson about that.

But for the history, the origin of the "whole word"/whatever method, we're talking OG Progressives, the ones who had to relabel themselves as liberals after Wilson's frank fascism in WWI ruined the brand.

Stuff that happened in the 1920s and I think earlier, not something I could ask my parents about, their being born after the 1930 publication of that first basal reader. Given the poverty of the times, they probably learned using older books anyway.

Note also in this period the Progressives were quite the fans of eugenics, Jim Crow and segregation ruled much of the US, so that large cohort of -1SD 85 mean IQ negro students weren't in white classrooms by and large.

Instead, as I understand it they were taught mostly by their own "talented tenth" and a lot of them _did_ learn how to read. Heck, even those Haitians who couldn't "get" alphabetized sorting of files could still read and write the words in them....

And troublemakers were dealt with, one way or another. Corporal punishment was all but unquestioned I'm pretty sure. Expulsions, I don't know. Short bus, ditto. Might be fewer of them simply because of later medical advances, including antibiotics only starting for the US civilian population in 1946.

"Is there really a secret society conspiracy to make the public illiterate?"

Maybe. The timing with the heyday of the Progressive movement that eventually resulted in the first _Dick and Jane and Their Running Dog Spot_ basal reader is extremely suspicious.

If they were sincere, they were _extremely_ shoddy, like depending on a study in the University of Chicago's school for children of its faculty, who will just pick up reading and likely phonics on their own.

They of course also hated the Christianity and morals of the McGuffey Readers, and probably their use of classics.

"And if not, why did anyone oppose phonics?"

One excuse is "drill and kill." But if you don't do that for phonemes and the math tables, the children will be crippled. And again, this is boring for the teachers.

Also see the above history, I'm sure it became a class thing. Also see how it would reduce competition for the children of the elites, which is _very_ overt nowadays, and especially so for white children and particularly boys.

"High school math and language have not changed."

How these are "taught," especially at the lower levels, have undergone wild gyrations in the US. Milestones include the 1930 start of the campaign to stop teaching phonics which many if not most people need (and if you don't learn how to read, it's game over), and in 1955 the publication of _Why Johnny Can't Read_ calling this out. _It's still being fought._

I've not studied the history of teaching math so much, but there's lots of notorious examples like "new math" back in the day, "rainforest math," and truly bizarre Common Core math most recently.

For a general contemporary example of another problem, Oakland, CA, historically a very bad city, had an effective enough curriculum, which was recently thrown out because the teachers didn't like using it.

For your strategy to work, not only would the books have to have avoided being pulped ("recycled paper!!!") instead of expensively stored, they'd have to be from the right periods if Sweden had its own story similar to the US.

Another drivers I'm sure of the computerization, and something will make your approach fail without a very hard core "you will learn Swedish NOW!" approach which sounds unlikely. and very hard for older migrant children or "children," is the radical demographic change. Foreign or effectively so children > 20%, up to 28% in 2010 per Brave AI, .

Once the Left captured the studio, just "listening" to someone interested in the quality and profitability of the games would get you fired and canceled from the industry.

More generally, what on earth makes people think this was about money vs. power beside the economic man fallacy? Leftists focus on the latter, and don't tend to have long time horizons, here a concern this would put their studio out of business. Cultural power ... now that's something ___overwhelming___ as we can see trying to live in a world made by them. Especially white collar workers.

On the other hand, these things often, if not generally fail to win enough hearts and minds, which is why the DSA et. al. are in the violent coup planning and early exercises process. The Left in the US already uses soft terror like cancellation, with hard examples like Charlie Kirk, but since they realized the US population didn't support their position on the Vietnam War they've been setting themselves up for the hard option.

Might also be worried that the building counter-reaction, and how the legacy American younger generations are building up larger and larger right wing cohorts. Trump 2.0 is also working against this WRT to legal and illegal immigration, hurting the "elect a new people" option that we can see in action right now in France.

So I wonder if the smarter ones believe they have to act soon or they'll miss their chance for the foreseeable future.

Which per the article was a new thing, but now is a scarlet letter:

"AIPAC announced on Wednesday that, after three cycles of direct political involvement through its political action committee AIPAC PAC, it will no longer issue endorsements or directly earmark contributions to candidates, but said it will remain involved in political organizing and fundraising in other ways, including with its influential super PAC.

"The decision is a striking turnabout just five years after the group first launched its PAC and super PAC and began directly endorsing and fundraising for candidates. The United Democracy Project super PAC, which launched alongside AIPAC’s PAC in 2021 and has spent tens of millions across numerous races, will continue its engagement.

"In the current election cycle, AIPAC endorsements and donations have become a cudgel against lawmakers from the far left and far right, particularly with the emergence of anti-Israel activist groups targeting lawmakers for receiving money tied to Israel advocacy groups...."

Then again, we hear that each Congressman gets assigned an AIPAC handler, which few reject, at least before October 7th. Another type of "engagement."

The King James of the famous, often great prose but iffy in _accuracy_ bible he sponsored was the son of Mary, Queen of Scots, and was under great threat in England, like the Gunpowder Plot (Guy Fawkes and company, a Catholic plot), the struggle between Protestants and Catholics was vicious in his day. From Wikipedia is this chilling note:

"He was strongly committed to a peace policy and tried to avoid involvement in religious wars, especially the Thirty Years' War that devastated much of Central Europe."

As in, many Germans think it was worse than the results of losing WWII, and I can totally see that. And his son King Charles I was executed, which then put Cromwell in power.

Data Republican (small r) has gotten hold of a lot of DSA and company material, transcripts and recordings, and I'm finding it interesting in while it's color revolution territory, it's not the usual plan as I understand it.

Those were done or tried in small countries, with an easy focus on the capital city; too many countries are "one bomb" ones, take that out and most everything running it is gone.

The US isn't like that, and we're also seriously Federalized. So for example a Democratic governor or president can't _trivially_ deny me police protection because he doesn't control my elected sheriff or city police department.

On the other hand, while "there are no Blue states, only Blue cities" there _are_ lots of Blue cities. But besides TACO, Trump doesn't _have_ to play ball and invoke the Insurrection Act unless for example the DSA types starting _successfully_ raiding Red areas.

You decided to live in a Blue city; sucks to be you. And in the big picture Trump and JD Vance first and foremost have to avoid impeachment and conviction at about the same time. (The DSA types may not be able to see it, but the GOPe would _love_ to have an excuse to put that over the top.)

On the other hand, see previous posting on terror. Trump's also got a soft heart, and maybe he can be provoked by enough (semi-)innocents being killed, big enough riots, etc....

And probably not even then. At some level the Left is realizing it's losing some of its margins of cheating by the closing of the border, the sharp drop in legal immigration, weak but still there cheating clampdowns, etc.

"If This Goes On—" works for them too, they may not know until too late who's going to be the GOP 2028 nominee and sometime not-GOPe who might continue this work would be ... bad for them. See what they have to say about the SAVE act.

I have not been able to find _any_ evidence of this.

Yes, they, especially the Eastern European Ashkenazi glommed onto the Modern Left created in that catastrophe like ducks to water, but a general overview of their modern-ish history indicates they're much better at following others than coming up with their own unique stuff.

Story time!

By the time I was in 5th grade, I had grown my hair to be very long, all the way to my hips. It was my mom that made me grow my hair that long. Up until that time, I never really cared about my hair or my looks so I never gave it much thought. None of my friends ever commented about it in any way.

Then I got to middle school. We all hit puberty. Suddenly, my friends were telling me that my hair was too long and that I would look better with shorter hair. I distinctly remember that one of the girls who would tell me this had long hair herself, mine just happened to be longer.

One day in 7th grade, as I was walking out of the school cafeteria after lunch, a girl tapped me on my shoulder and asked “is that your hair?” as she pointed towards the floor. I was confused and didn’t know what she meant until I looked down and saw a lock of hair of about 3-4 inches just lying there. I asked her, “Whose hair is that?” and she said, “Yours.” I looked at my hair that was in a braid, and sure enough, a chunk was cut and missing.

I was shocked until I heard a laugh behind me. It was one of my “friends”, she was laughing out loud with a pair of scissors in her hand. She thought it was hilarious. Of course, I was very hurt. The ends of my hair were uneven for months (I didn’t want to cut it so I just waited until it grew back).

Anyways, girls commenting about how much better I’d look with shorter hair continued throughout my entire adolescence. Female intrasexual competition is 100% real, it starts out very young, and it is vicious. A lot of times women don’t even realize that they’re doing it. The jealousy and desire to bring a woman down in order to bring themselves up comes naturally for many.

Any woman that isn’t being dishonest and that grew up with women will confirm that. You don’t really need a study to know this, but in this case this study is based on reality.

@batkatebush

This "study" is pseudoscience because:
- 2 is hotter than 1
- 3 is hotter than 2
- If a woman arrives at 4 she has gotten there entirely of her own accord

Datarepublican (small r) has been jumping up and down pointing out how Misanthropic's anticipated IPO will pour unimaginable wealth into Effective Altruism's death cult. (Against humans; some of them even weigh the value of insects against us (seriously).)

Dario could donate directly to Trump Accounts, which would directly benefit the citizens and next generation. Instead they are going to launder the money to far left wing NGO's, and use the wealth to try destroying our country and to murder your children.

Anthropic
@AnthropicAI

We’re committing a portion of Anthropic’s shares to the Anthropic Public Benefit Fund, a new wholly owned entity dedicated entirely to the public benefit.

It will start off with 5% of our shares. For every 50% increase in the company’s value over a set baseline, we can contribute up to an extra 2%, subject to our board’s discretion.

In total, this means that roughly 20% of Anthropic’s shares are committed to the public good. Our co-founders have already pledged to donate 80% of their equity, and around half our employees are donating a portion of their equity as part of a donation matching program we’ve run since our founding.

In the post below, we share more details about our new fund.

Pity one of them couldn't just publish it on arVix without retaliation.

If true, the evolutionary implications are fascinating. Would seem to go against common sense, or is a K type selection pressure, since r types are going to be impregnating women at a high rate (and only a few of them per studies, most men way, way back in pre-history didn't procreate).

So something likely to be an influence in much more recent western European evolutionary development for instance.

Here is the article. Says:

"Boyd was also chair of the [hospital's legal/financial org's] LGBTQ+ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer) network in 2022."

He used his position as a "triage nurse in the paediatric assessment unit" to molest boys. That's a mostly no-touch job, take BP and heart rate etc. and gather info.

Needless to say, he was given a pass by the legal authorities, they have more important things to do like arrest over thirty people a day for speech crimes:

"Wiltshire Police said it carried out an initial investigation and was advised by the Crown Prosecution Service to refer the case back to the hospital for it to investigate internally."

He can't officially practice as a nurse anymore. Since the Left takes care of its own....

And amusing/disgusting that India declared itself "Open Defecation Free" in 2019 when that was an obvious lie.

Once it became a political issue, I don't think we can trust any of the statistics on claimed improvements (see Goodhart's law link), it's probably closer to the 2012 50% don't have access to toilets than the claimed 12.5% as of 2023, that's a radical, massive change claimed in just eleven years. Especially given "behavioral or maintenance issues," and for example what we hear about the open behavior of new pajeets in Canada.

BTW, Canada just dropped companies even having to make a pretense that they couldn't find a Canadian citizen before hiring a foreigner for "high paying jobs." (1.3 times median national wage :cirnoDoubt: )

Per Brave AI accurately quoting a couple of sources, this is to "to simplify the application process and reduce administrative burden for employers while prioritizing skilled workers who drive economic growth."

Needless to say, since Castro's son became PM there hasn't been much Official "economic growth" in the country, and it far, _far_ lags the US ... assuming those statistics are also valid, or not less valid. :cirno_shrug:

@StephenM

This is revolting pro-cartel pro-trafficking propaganda from the New York Times. The Biden Administration trafficked almost half a million minors into the country and handed them over to unvetted adults, often unvetted adult illegal alien men.

Some so-called “sponsors” were delivered numerous, even dozens, of children by the Democrat administration. The majority of the sponsors had themselves paid the cartels to obtain the children, a fact known by the Biden government.

Biden spent billions ferrying these children throughout the United States and hiring lawyers to protect cartel profits by filing frivolous motions to keep the floodgates open—funneling the money through corrupt NGOs. The children then disappeared. The Trump Administration rescued these children....

Don't pay attention to upstart Tesla, although you directly compete with them with one model.

Don't notice the NOTAM (Notice To Airmen of restricted airspace) that tells everyone something big of a Tesla sort is going to happen (something I read about beforehand).

Introduce your new "better than a 911" supercar four hours before Tesla shows off a car that can drive upside down, fly, and does 0-60 in 0.81 seconds (EVs are _really_ good at that sort of thing, if you can afford the frequent tire replacements).

That said, 2100 to 1000 BC really isn't that old, "recorded history" goes back another thousand years, and civilization in Mesopotamia, if you want to count it starting with the Neolithic Revolution move to agriculture, started there around ten thousand BC. Quoting Wikipedia quoting some random from the U.K. in 2003:

"It has been identified as having 'inspired some of the most important developments in human history, including the invention of the wheel, the planting of the first cereal crops, the development of cursive script, mathematics, astronomy, and agriculture.' It is recognised as the cradle of some of the world's earliest civilizations."

As long as people have been able to talk, I'll bet elders have been saying just that sort of thing....
