Reprint on tenure
Linked in previous, worth a reprint. = = = = = START 2020 REPRINT: Some people are starting to catch on to a chronic long-standing problem, which has become acute and GENOCIDAL in the current fake “emergency”. Retired officials and professors and doctors have been speaking truth openly on all the fake “emergencies” from “9/11”…

Coal is back!
Via Shepstone, Trump’s Dept of Energy is taking a huge number of general and specialized actions to stop the abandonment of coal and restore some recently closed coal power plants. The actions also reinforce a secondary use of coal in the processing of steel. If the coking plants are gone, we can’t reshore steel. Trump…

Truth in advertising
Auto writers uniformly say that Ford made a big mistake by emphasizing safety in ’56. Nobody wants safety! First, Ford wasn’t alone in the “mistake”. Everyone started offering seat belts and padded dashes in ’56. Imperial and Chrysler had standard padding since ’49. Second, it’s simply not true that everyone hates safety. Real men are…

Localize, localize, localize
An old song has been popping in my mental jukebox lately. I’m convinced it’s a railroad song. You can hear the locomotive chugging and a dopplered whistle, similar to Chattanooga Choochoo. The last two lines seem to be: Riding on the __ __, Riding on the __ __ line. There’s a two-syllable railroad in the…

Storage is the heart of civilization
Previous item reminded me of this. Storage is not only the key to experimentation and learning, it’s the key to LIFE. = = = = = START 2019 REPRINT: Noticed a badly done graph on corporate bankruptcies at ZH. The graph doesn’t adjust the assets for inflation, so it’s useless. There’s an even stupider description…

Reprint on limited resources
In previous item about Krugman and Cobol I linked this 2014 piece. I was talking about Modern Monetary Theory, which turned out to be a passing fad. MMT was just a fake philosophy to justify the standard Wall Street and government method. Never save, never produce or preserve anything. Create counterfeit and pour it into…

No QE in nature
Another “leftover” “vestigial” piece of anatomy turns out to be useful after all. The muscles around the outer ear are unquestionably used by most mammals. We can see a dog or cat moving both ears to listen in various directions. The outer ears are also used for emotional signaling, showing fear or alertness or curiosity…

Originality compounded
Via Cointelegraph, Trump is strongly favoring the insane idea of a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve. As I’ve mentioned a few thousand times already, bitcoin is just a database or spreadsheet. One bitcoin is one row of a spreadsheet. There’s nothing original about strategic reserves. Birds do it, bees do it, even educated cells do it. People…

Beyond gigasucker
Several states are planning to set up BITCOIN STRATEGIC RESERVES. CNBC interviews a Bitcoin scammer who thinks it’s a wonderful idea. Of course CNBC will always serve the oligarchs, so I don’t expect objectivity or “balance” from them. Ohio and Texas are considering the fantastically stupid idea, along with the alleged so-called “federal” “government”. Needless…

Amazing storage
The huge song store in a mental jukebox is endlessly amazing. Tonight some random bit of melody pushed the button for the silly ’60s song…. Who put the bomp in the bompdebompdebomp, who put the ram in the ramalamadingdong? Now it’s stuck on autoplay. Most of my jukebox selections make sense. They’re classical pieces that…

Uganda reminds me
Uganda’s monetary defense against our cultural imperialism reminds me of this point. I was exploring this concept in late 2019, just in time to have it in my ‘reserves’ when Deepstate’s 2020 holocaust struck. = = = = = START 2019 REPRINT: Continuing with Del Giudice’s magnificently productive question about mental defensible spaces against pathogens.…

Uganda joins the cultural defense
The move toward a gold standard is spreading through Africa. Uganda is working toward the same goal, though not yet firming up the decision as Zimbabwe did. = = = = = START QUOTE: The Bank of Uganda said it will directly purchase bullion from artisanal miners in a move that will also support government…

Skill pension
Amortizing pays. Storage pays. Never toss a possibly useful product! Now that I’m older and less energetic and less capable of complex programming, I can still USE the thousands of graphics items and Python tools I made during my peak period from 1995 to 2015. It’s a skill pension.

From fences to commons
When computing changed from the Private Property model of the separate PC to the Deepstate Property model of web-based apps, tyrants won the battle for our memory. Brendan Eich played a major part in this loss when he designed Javascript for use by tyrants. Let’s follow the long trail of long term memory vs no…

Supercondensed matter
This 1954 promo for the Nutrilite supplement is well produced and typifies a long tradition for MLMs and related scams. Bitcoin follows the same tradition. Both pivot on a false idea of super-condensation. The product is EXTREMELY valuable because it’s EXTREMELY condensed. Condensed products are a wonderful idea, making extended storage and savings possible. Condensed…
