Good leth
Question seen on Reddit: Could an Omniscient, Omnipotent, Omnibenevolent God know all the digits of the number Pi? Or even the square root of 2? Kind of a silly question, but since to the best of our knowledge those numbers are irrational, is it possible for the above being to know all of their decimal…

One picture
From one of the Philly fentanyl videos… The modern era in one picture. Our jobs have been offshored, we’re torn apart by media, our brains have been eaten up by the drugs prescribed by “doctors”, we’re paralyzed and nonfunctional, but by God we won’t catch that horrible VIRUS which might give us the sniffles for…

What’s the diff?
Perusing some of those old computer mags again after thinking of Weizenbaum and Eliza, I noticed holograms as a new and promising development. I remember my first look at a real laser-viewed hologram in 1966. It was on display** in K-State’s physics building. In the ’80s holograms were part of Big Entertainment, seen in rock…

Mismeasure
Continuing from the bank comparison in Math is Pope. It would be better to say that bitcoiners blindly trust arithmetic, not math. They don’t understand how numbers are used and misused, in real measurement or in programming. When comparing their Holy Grail with the Horrible Establishment, they blindly use the fake numbers provided by the…

Old joke, new joke
Old joke: A man who apologizes when he’s wrong is wise. A man who apologizes when he’s right is married. New rendition of the old joke by AI.

Catching onto the magsman
Liron Shapira is puzzled by Balaji, the top galaxybrain bully. Balaji isn’t a mystery, he’s a classic conman type. I’ve mentioned him in two different references. Now that I look at both together, I realize they’re both British and both from the same decade. (1) Definition from the 1874 dictionary of British slang: Magsman, a…

Math is pope (reprint).
Naomi Wolf writes a long and scholarly piece on the 2020 holocaust. She believes that the uniform unison action of ALL governments at ALL levels could only happen because we’ve abandoned the single Abrahamic god and resumed the old poly-gods. This is backwards. Those old gods were the exact opposite of uniform and unison. They…

Royalty on both sides of the ledger
Publishers normally pay royalties to an author. This time a publisher LISTENED to royalties. Camilla made a speech calling on Demon Puffin to publish Dahl’s work as written. Amazingly they obeyed. They will publish the real work along with their fake work. Last month Charles kicked out the British end of the Epstein Blackmail Factory.…

Impressive video of ?quake?
Speaking of quakes and inverse thunder and such… Many people heard one or two loud booms around here tonight. I’ve been awake but didn’t hear anything. I did hear some familiar rumbling, probably the neighbor rolling his trash bin. Spokane News asked, and one of the commenters caught it on security camera. See Triston Rumpel’s…

Personal superstitions
I pay attention to personal superstitions because they’re actual learnings. The old leftover fake superstitions are just tools for Cool People to mock Uncool People. Incidentally, I cited the “bird flu” superstition in the linked 2005 item, which turned out to be prophetic…. or more likely I was seeing the start of the “bioterror” holocaust…

Not silly
Following on previous item about bird-human parallels. I thought I was forming a silly ‘reductio’ in this 2016 piece about rackets and scams: = = = = = START REPRINT: As I noted before, 1950’s radio and TV shows constantly used drama and comedy to help us spot frauds and scams. Media now do the…

Well, here’s the “use case”
MindMatters notes that a sci-fi magazine stopped taking submissions from new writers because most were obviously AI. Automatic checking isn’t reliable, and there’s no way of firmly verifying human action without getting expensively personal. You could require manuscripts in pen and ink, and require a video showing the author actually writing a few of the…

Hersh gives value for money
His latest piece is perfect journalism. Just long enough to tell the complete story, with no excess details or distraction. Norway helped us blow up the Nordstream pipeline last year. AND: In 1964 the same Norwegian secret forces helped us assemble the Gulf of Tonkin “incident” that “justified” our entry in Vietnam. We should be…

Another bird gene?
I believe that humans are a mix of mammal and bird, possibly from horizontal gene transfer. Like birds, we’re bipedal, we build complex nests, we enjoy and produce music, and we enjoy and produce speech. The rest of our talents and tendencies are shared with other mammals. Male humans have a conflict between the bird…
