Some crave recognition so deeply they'll ally with pernicious figures just to amplify their message, entirely blind to the company they keep.
Such hunger for reach is a sufficient heuristic to also discard the message immediately as pure noise.
As a monstrously wise nero di seppia pilgrim once said: "you don't do well in life by never being wrong. That's impossible. You do well by recognizing your mistakes faster than others"
Nassim is a treasure of integrity and rigor.
I made a huge mistake thinking that manual technical jobs such as electician, appliance technician etc. wd be spared by AI.
Had pbs w/: HVAC, security system, outdoor lighting, pool programming etc. & was forced to solved them w/AI because technicians are slow at showing up.
People don’t actually believe you can learn subjects by reading books anymore. The popular model of learning is ‘learning by doing’ and video is second hand ‘learning by doing‘. Software developers (the first illiterate technical class) pioneered this worldview.
A Bosnian Srebrenica survivor breaks down while participating in the Peace March along the same trails where thousands of Bosnians tried to escape the 1995 genocide. 🇧🇦💔
Besides the retarded "research", something extremely perverse: pro-natalist (whatever that means) identity performers obsessing over birth rates never mentioning the thousands of children Israel is killing in this genocide. Not one word.
The # of distinct k-subsets (from n elements containing exactly k elements) is Binomial(n,k)

So pay no head to explanations of Johnson's demise.
Really, a very sad story.
Pretending what? I simply don't dedicate my life to treating children (who are human beings afaik) like a commodity whose production must be ramped up. Seriously, get help (and a real job)
Treating birth rates like a puzzle to solve in a top-down way is nefarious. For anyone truly devoted, this obsession is unthinkable. Discussing birth rates while ignoring human dignity is performative, agenda-driven, and sick, especially for a parent.
Beyond the BS statistics, dedicating your life to the 'declining birth rate' panic is deeply sinister. Enlisting neo-eugenicist quacks like Peterson and Kisin to push this crap is triply so.

@TidefallCapital Says more about you than him tbh. I get the meme if it was Warren Buffett doing so...but considering TS anything but a bs vendor from day 1 is seriously disqualifying.
Such utterly retarded takes are HARMFUL to the objective of promoting Catholicism. They devalue it to any neutral/non invested observer with a functioning brain.
The decline of the Brazilian national team is mirrored by the decline of Catholicism in the country. This team lacks joy, replaced by dour Protestant work ethic that is alien to their culture.
