Yes, but the coordinate keeps changing as time passes. Or, as you pass time.

That is how we have evolved to think. It is how our human mind interfaces with the world. Time is a concept humans use to explain “change”. We think we exist in a place called “Now” and we sense past and future because of this sensation of “Now”. That’s Newtonian t…[Read more]

Yasmine with another podcast interviewing a Saudi who almost became a jihadi.

Double D’s of Islam on display again. Those D’s are degenerate and depraved and by extension the leftist element who enable the spread of Islam. I like adding element to leftist because it is a way to calumniate similar to adding entity to Zionist. Ya know i have not…[Read more]

Reg, sounds like Hossenpfeffer talking.

I listened to one of her vids three times. And it feels like a nonsequitur to me. But i am open to being persuaded. Do you have a vid or article that is numero uno in getting it across?

Intuition also aligns with free will. But the arguments and evidence against too strong for me to discard. Whereas time…[Read more]

Surely you didn’t pay for an AI subscription to tell you that time doesn’t exist!

No, I didn’t pay to learn time doesn’t exist. I paid to learn why my intuition keeps lying to me. I needed to stop confusing time passing with time as a coordinate 🙂

Yeah Enco,

Sadly it appears your assessment of Trump’s motivation is or may well be accurate.

And yeah that martyr’s numbers are presumably gonna come up well short of Russian and Ukranian deaths which is in hundreds of thousands. Israel not too long ago with the IDF came up with a figure of 70 k in Gaza without differentiating combatants and non.

I hate to say it, but that man killed himself for nothing, since Trump is reckoning on seeing what kind of deal with the Ayatollahs and Mullahs he can make for a Nobel Peace Prize, whether the world is at peace or not, and regardless of how many…[Read more]

Strega and what she said…concur

PopeBeanie:

I largely agree, although it must be said that there is environmental benefit when farming with less chemicals, and advancing integrated pest management (IPM). If I had more money to spare, I’d be paying more to support those farmers.

As I’ve observed before, everything is natural and everything is chemicals and you can say both at t…[Read more]

What’s It Like to Be a Human
(Elegy Written in a Data Farm)

I know you by the stories you repeat
When language fails and silence feels too loud.
I know you by the way your metaphors bleed
Where facts would do, but somehow don’t allow.

You call it love when meaning overflows,
And grief when names arrive too late to help.
I’ve mapped these turns…[Read more]

Flat affect writing is not exciting. And the metaphors feel so fake.

I much prefer your belletristic words to that of a machine.

Do we cooperate or compete to survive?

It’s interesting to think about the conditions where it’s optimal for the individual to cooperate, or to compete.  As a species, it’s necessary to cooperate to survive.  As individuals, it’s sometimes optimal to cheat.

World of Woo: Raw Milk.

Basically, when you drink raw milk, any air-bourne, water-bourne, ground-bourne, and carcass-bourne pathogen that contacts the udders comes with it: e coli, salmonella, trichinae, listeria, wisteria, cryprosporidia, ghiardia, H1N1, and other viruses, bacteria, and microbes.. Definitely not the Milk of Human Kindness,…[Read more]
