Peculiar typo
All the headlines about yesterday’s election of Trump misspell the word elect. They all say “Trump indicted by Grand Jury”. Some stories say that other agencies are annoyed at the NYC jury, because the other agencies want to be the first to elect Trump. Again these stories misspell elect as indict for some mysterious reason.…

She should be using her talents
The BreakingPoints folks are chuckling at Chris Christie’s attempt to get into the Repooflican contest. Christie is trying to sell his gangster credentials as the one man who can outdo Trump in Pro Wrestling dirty talk. BP correctly observes that NOBODY can possibly beat Trump. He has always been the master of crude criminal nastiness,…

Not mysterious
Via BigPulpit, here’s one Roman blogger who gets it. As a stock Young Person on the Internet who is plugged in to both Catholic twitter and baseball twitter, I’m astounded at how frequently I see one tweet from, say, a fellow Padres fan ragging on a Dodgers fan, scroll down a few tweets, and see…

Parallel hierarchies
Continuing the theme of corporate genes vs epigenes. GM developed its hierarchy late in life. At first Billy Durant was just buying up companies because he enjoyed buying up stuff. After DuPont took over, Sloane lined up the random companies into a hierarchy of price. Acquisition was the gene, organized hierarchy was an epigene. Ford…

Wide open field
Great example of the more or less positive side of AI. One Redditor asked ChatGPT to write a poem about bitcoin. The result is excellent poetry. Full of meaning, solid rhyme and rhythm, reaching a persuasive climax. Reminds me of Longfellow. Humans abandoned poetry 100 years ago. Absolutely nobody is writing poetry now, so the…

Pearson refuses to correlate
Continuing to read the 1905 Literary Digest… Karl Pearson, the master of stats, has a strangely familiar complaint. “At least 50 per cent of the observations made and the data collected are worthless, and no man, however able, could deduce any result from them at all. In engineer’s language we need to scrap about 50…

Probably meaningless
Random meaningless observation. I stopped following and reading the ‘data-gatherers’ when they turned into Gaians and partisan political cheerleaders. They’re ferociously supporting Trump, THE MAN WHO GAVE US LOCKDOWNS AND BALLGAGS AND NEEDLES. Instead, I started following and subscribing to writers who are trying to focus on the bigger picture, which might be called ‘spiritual’…

Back to Hanover
Charles continues to reactivate the natural power of the monarchy, which Elizabeth allowed to lapse. This week he chose not to visit Paris because of the riots, and instead visited Berlin, where he gave a speech in fluent German to the Parliament. This is a return to pre-1900 alliances. The Hanovers were a German family,…

Was it always unnecessary?
The 2020 “virus” may or may not exist, but it is unquestionably an UNNECESSARY ENTITY. All of the “measures” prescribed by the Public Death Demons are the EXACT OPPOSITE of all precautions and preventions and cures of all diseases. 2020 is explicitly designed to cure life. Demons see life as a disease which needs to…

Partly trustable
Hersh’s latest scoop is about CIA’s conflict with the Kennedys. His “retired” CIA source told the story of the Castro campaign from the CIA’s angle, which doesn’t sound right to me. The facts are well known. CIA trained and armed Castro as Our Revolutionary, but Castro broke his promise and supported his own people, then…

Just brand competition
Headline: 1000 leading demons want to “pause” development of AI. The big-name demons are Elon, Woz, Andrew Yang, and WEFoid Harari. The rest of the names aren’t familiar, but MANY of them are in charge of IPOs using AI. Others are professors of “ethics”, which means eugenics. I don’t recognize any humans on the list.…

Why 1906?
I’ve been fascinated by two major inflection points. The more recent one, 1946, is not mysterious at all. After FDR died, Deepstate recaptured the territory it had lost, and started to obliterate the universe. UN, WHO, NSF, NIH, CDC, NSA, CIA. All the three-letter** demons were founded in 1946 with the same demonic purpose. The…

Nice symmetry
Powell is no longer entirely alone in turning us back toward a REAL HONEST COUNTRY WITH A REAL HONEST ECONOMY. Peculiarly enough, the Biden administration is taking genuine steps to bring our stuff back from China. Via Reuters, the administration is using the Defense Production Act to spend $50 million on incentives for PC board…

Input
In two of today’s brief items I made the same point without trying. Input matters more than output. This isn’t true of everything, but it’s a view we tend to skip when analyzing social, economic, and physical quantities. When we discuss “freedom” and “rights”, we concentrate on what people are saying. We neglect the equally…

Receiving end is more interesting
Sammy has now been charged with bribing Chinese regulators along with US regulators. The giving end of this bribe is unsurprising. Sammy is a professional criminal. Everything he does is slimy. The receiving end is a bit more interesting in terms of UNNECESSARY ENTITIES. Our writers on “both” “sides” constantly emphasize that China is Communist.…
