not that i am a fed fan but powell is right on rates & t-dawg completely wrong—that is actually what created the great depression & why it was worse in the U.S. than Canada.
i already posted the b. bernanke speech acknowledging this interpretation.
“I accuse you of the assassination of William Lyons Selby, and assuming his identity for the purposes of overthrowing the United States government.”
so symbolic coptic easter & constantine overlapped this past weekend.

actions can be derivative/responsive or generative (when tech sector uses this word for ai it is intentionally misleading—ai is derivative not generative)—so: not coping rather constructive.
so, humans esp healthy ones are way more valuable than robots & the communities who need to depend on robots for caring for elderly or warfare are at a distinct disadvantage.
not so much a fraud as a paper tiger. i feel like what we’re witnessing is sort of a spaz session of folks who have lost power trying to assert that they still have it—meanwhile the rest of us are moving or have moved on. and yes about the robot excerpt you shared—hard to imagine a nimble artificial hand joint with sensitive electronics surviving wind, water, sun etc when clunkier mechanical machines can’t without constant maintenance. it’ll be like the opening scene of hurt locker—they’ll have to send in the human.
i mean yeah but he’ll never make it to mars. think about maintaining your car—you think he or anyone out here can maintain an army of robots? so cheap to maintain a human soldier. he couldn’t even do it to build teslas—had to hire back the people. and if your population or community is dependent on ivf to survive—you are seriously struggling. how much ivf is going on in niger? japan has one of the highest rates of ivf use. that’s kind of like a vanity preference instead of adoption (don’t come for me!).
got oakland on my mind—the economic conditions he portrays are flipped today. or are they. elaine? servants. still an interesting read.

do not follow this channel only posting b/c i think it is true—i watched a clip of norman finkelstein on jimmy dore and was just like, this is straight bs: ‘hardly any israeli soldier casualties, gaza is gone’ etc—total propaganda. i did not watch that rogan theatre with a comedian i’ve never heard of vs. a milquetoast brit i’ve also never heard of b/c it was obviously setup as a theatrical good guy/bad guy show b/c the backlash is real and a legitimate cause for concern. anyhoo—looks like orban/hungary is taking in israelis. europe wants/needs more caucasians, right? worried about color parity & all that, so this is a win/win. honestly my suggestion for a carve out between ukraine & russia there is probably workable — let’s get these crays crays to calm down. can’t smuggle stuff thru israel forever!
dave smith vs douglas murray, jeffrey sachs, bernie s—you aren’t winning the desperately seeking good guy status. not working. we are all so so tired of the media games…
was just thinking yesterday how i’m into the china flex but what i’m really waiting for is the AFRICAN FLEX. c’est arrive!
that dumb msnbc explanation about tariffs using lesotho ‘it’s a poor country they can’t buy from us’ but ‘we import millions & millions worth of diamonds’…
I mean if whatever Charles Lieber was up to at Harvard loses funding it’s probably a win for humanity.
china halts boeing deliveries? i am LOVING china rn!
literally checked yesterday if there is a flight search engine to screen out ALL BOEING AIRCRAFT.
(there’s only one for Boeing Max, unfortunately)
no gov funding to harvard (they do NOT NEED IT). since when has the news been this good.
the karmic backlash of gentrification is often called crime.
you get the view, you get the house, you get the garage—but you will never get peace of mind.
israel is a British colonial hangover—there’s nothing unique here.
colonizers—even the low-fi version: gentrifiers—have it good for a while, but eventually they get kicked out or leave because they can’t deal anymore with the environment.
wow, even aliens 👽 are anti-semites? didn’t know this thing went interstellar!
can someone explain to me why AI in the US needs gov’t help? as someone who mills around sillycon valley VCs have been dumping money into it such that it seemed like every company raising just threw the word “AI” into their pitch, literally billions, hundreds of billions invested in these AI companies, and you’re telling me they STILL GOT SCHOOLED such that they need gov’t welfare and/or podiums to build data centers? the math ain’t mathing…this looks like another Cold War construct funny money funnelers…now China is the “enemy,” Ray Dalio making media rounds when he was all in on China and for all we know these very same folks sold US land and debt to China…so…they bought it fair & square! Don’t complain to me about China stealing IP when you GAVE THEM THE IP when you MOVED YOUR FACTORIES TO CHINA. What did you expect? You gave them the blueprints.
“there is a sucker, born every minute! each time that second hand gets to the top like dandelions up they pop their ears so big their eyes so wide…” 🎶
now can we please get that HOLLYWOOD sign to Vegas.
i’m waiting.
“luxury” brand cheap swag stock dropping is like an amuse-bouche.
REALITY BITES! That is our THEME for 2025:
