HumanProbably

Just a Human. Probably.

Someone who cares about the future and is concerned with the direction we are headed.

scifi story: you are the AI mind of an alien probe, one of millions seeded long ago across the galaxy. the star system you are monitoring has developed a technological civilization that will, in time, challenge your makers.

how do you get rid of it?

blowing up the planet or destroying the star takes lots of energy, and leave evidence. (nod to "Revelation Space" and Alastair Reynolds)

but you are very old smart and very very patient.

all you have to do is model the society of the species you are wanting to destroy, and inject some small changes.

you choose a group of the biologicals, they are the "chosen ones". you manipulate things so they are in charge of the information networks and money networks.

you work with your "chosen ones" to transfer stone age biologicals into the societies of the technological biologicals so they can destroy those societies.

if everything goes to plan, in a few generations the biologicals will be living in mud huts and eating each other again.

...

perhaps there are other forces, even other AI machines, that are working with goals opposed to yours.

and the question of our time is: "who wins"

Black kids get an 181x boost at NYU, a 133x boost at Cornell, and a 103x boost at Harvard compared to Whites and Asians.

Absolutely insane numbers.

Elon Musk called for Robert Reich to be jailed on Sunday after Reich called to seize Musk’s property. Musk is right. Reich said Democrats should start laying the groundwork to nationalize Starlink and SpaceX and turn them into a public corporation if they take the House or Senate. Musk responded: “Stealing companies is a serious crime. Prison for Reich.”

More Democrats are openly embracing communism now, and it needs to be legally responded to seriously. Anyone promoting communism and the taking of private property from law-abiding citizens as a penalty for success should be jailed or lose their citizenship.

Reich is a former U.S. Secretary of Labor under Bill Clinton, a longtime Berkeley professor, and a frequent MSNBC commentator who has spent decades pushing higher taxes and expanded government control. He framed the nationalization call as a response to Musk supporting Trump and cutting into USAID spending. He also called for canceling federal contracts with Musk’s companies, breaking them up, and applying a wealth tax. That’s not regulation. That’s confiscation of private property because Musk backed the candidate Reich doesn’t like.

The same government that needed SpaceX to bring astronauts home is now being told to take the company. Reich has pushed this kind of economic intervention for years. This is the same playbook, just said out loud. Nationalizing private companies because of political disagreement is the core of how socialist and communist systems operate. They start with “public good” language, then move the assets under government control. Once the state owns the means of production in a sector, the owner loses the company and the public loses the competition that built it. Reich is treating Musk’s success as the problem and state ownership as the solution. Calling for the government to seize private companies over political disagreement is an attack on the right to own what you build.

Democrats used to at least pretend they supported private enterprise with rules around it. Reich is dropping the pretense. If taking Starlink and SpaceX is on the table for a midterm majority, every business owner who crosses them should expect the same treatment. That isn’t policy. It’s a direct threat to private ownership. Anyone who openly calls for seizing private companies over politics is an enemy of the country and should be legally treated as one.

🚨🇧🇷 URGENTE: Lo que ACABA de pasar en Brasil es INSANO, primero Lula pide extensión de votaciones por dos horas más, su amigo y abogado (hoy Supremo Tribunal Federal) lo acepta, Bolsonaro estaba ganando cuando estaban en 50% de votos contados, en menos de media hora, Lula superó a Bolsonaro por más de 3 millones y con un conteo de más de 80% de votos, eso es imposible. Lo que acaba de pasar en Brasil es uno de los robos más nauseabundos en una democracia

Our global elites must maintain the fiction that these are just frustrated "students" who've taken to the streets agitating for a better "education."

both twitter and apple are refusing to translate hebrew. interesting.

[HumanProbably @HumanProbably2]

yeah, no. possibly read only in order to find problems, but no access to spend any money, no matter how secure it is.

I built special machines for the bots to run on. I won't even give them access to my main machines.

if you are running a bot on your main machine, it is trivial for it to pull all your passwords out of your browser.

and, people, never store the passwords for critical accounts in your browser.
