Don’t fall for the fake Fox/GOP outrage. Two weeks ago the House passed a bill that greenlighted the transfer of Spanish territory to Morocco. Every Republican except me voted for it, but now THEY are acting shocked at the invasion.

🇩🇪🇦🇷🇪🇬 | Toni Kroos destruyó las conspiraciones de los fracasados que aseguran que Argentina le robó a Egipto en el Mundial:

"No entiendo por qué la gente siempre busca excusas después de un resultado como este. El fútbol se decide en 90 minutos, no por un solo momento. Egipto jugó una primera mitad excelente, pero, después de ponerse 2–0, perdió el control del partido y Argentina aprovechó. Eso es lo que hacen los equipos de élite.

"La gente sigue hablando del árbitro y del VAR, pero, si ves el partido de manera objetiva, la remontada de Argentina se construyó sobre su intensidad, calidad y mentalidad. Creyeron hasta el pitido final, mientras que Egipto no pudo mantener el mismo nivel que mostró al principio.

"No podés tirar por la borda una ventaja de dos goles contra uno de los mejores equipos del mundo y luego reducirlo todo a una sola decisión. El fútbol es mucho más complejo que eso.

"Siempre habrá debates sobre el arbitraje, y eso es normal. Pero decir que el partido fue 'robado' o que el torneo se está regalando a Argentina es injusto para todos los jugadores en el campo. Los jugadores deciden los partidos con sus actuaciones, no con teorías conspirativas.

"Lo difícil, después de una derrota, es aceptar que el rival fue mejor en los momentos decisivos. Argentina merece crédito por la forma en que respondió bajo presión, y Egipto debería estar orgulloso de su actuación mientras también aprende de los errores que le costaron caro. Eso es el fútbol".

"It's a gamed market."

Great. Who gamed it?

Consumers didn't create zoning restrictions, inflationary monetary policy, subsidies, licensing barriers, bailouts, or regulatory capture. Governments did. You're describing a mixed economy, then calling it capitalism.

To the Americans:

I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States.

And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness:

You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence.

This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns.

Success is equated with exploitation.
Ambition is looked upon with contempt.

This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom.

But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated.

This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet.

And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America:

Thank God for the United States.

Thank God for the wisdom of its founders.
Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man.
Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners.

Long may your admirable country dominate the world.

Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states.

May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning.

Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill.

Thank God for the USA.

Happy 250th.

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson

An abliterated top-tier open weights model today can tell you how to build a nuclear weapon. The challenge to building a nuclear weapon isn't knowledge. It's not even really resources.

Iran has knowledge and resources. They can't build one.

Why? A lot of other entities with knowledge and resources have a vested interest in making sure Iran doesn't have a nuclear weapon, and they get in their way.

If you wanted to build a nuclear weapon in your basement, to vibecode one with abliterated GLM 5.2, you would find that your efforts are stymied at every turn.

Even with step by step instructions, even if it was good enough at day-trading (it's not) to make you a tidy profit to finance your operations, you would find you would quickly attract the attention of law enforcement and the intelligence community.

It turns out they really don't want you to have a nuclear weapon!

If GLM-5.2 were good enough to tell you how to build a superplague (it's not), you would quickly learn a similar lesson in biology.

It turns out the challenge to building a superplague isnt really knowledge. Just as there are thousands of nuclear physicists with the theoretical knowledge to build nuclear weapons, there are thousands of biologists who have the theoretical knowledge required to make a superplague.

But if they wanted to do it, or if you wanted to, with your abliterated GLM-5.2-Bio-Edition, you would find that you would be stymied at every turn.

First you would design your virus particle or virus-like-particle. You could do this in the computer. But now you need to make it.

Traditionally you would order it from a company like Thermo-Fischer scientific or IDT. They'll synthesize a DNA strand for you and send it back so you can inject it into a cell of your choice to get it to produce the protien you want. For a fee, they'll even get an organism to express it for you and send *that* to you.

But, it turns out they're not stupid. And if you engineer a highly virulent strand of ebola and send it to them, before they help you make that, they're gonna say "hey wait a second, this kind of looks like a highly virulent strand of ebola!"

They will get upset, law enforcement will be contacted, the cops will show up, and so on and so on.

So maybe you'll do it yourself.

You have GLM 5.2-Bio-Edition and GLM 5.2-Trading-Edition so you make a bunch of money to order the expensive, highly specialized equipment you need to do this complex synthesis at home in your basement.

So you go online with your roughly $300k and start trying to order a Mermade DNA synthesizer and assorted sundries and suddenly they're asking all these strange questions like "what's your .edu email" or "what institution are you a part of?" and you don't really have answers to those questions because you're just some guy trying to make a superplague in your basement.

And actually it turns out the Government, intelligence community, and Bio Research technologies company *also* have GLM-5.2-Supply-Risk Edition and so they notice you trying to order all the parts to make a superplague in your basement.

They get very upset and the cops get called and so on and so on.

And *actually* it turned out *everyone* had access to GLM-5.2 Trading edition, so it wasn't so easy to make a killing on the market to finance your operation in the first place because your agent wasn't placing trades against human rubes, but against a whole hoard of *other* agents every bit as intelligent as itself, so the net result is that the market became slightly more efficient, but no one was really able to lock in asymmetrical gains.

Unless, however, *one* person had access to the GLM-5.2-ASI-Edition. Because if that person had access, they would be trading against rubes-by-comparison, and they would make a killing in the market to finance whatever operations they please.

And their ASI would be smarter than anything anyone else had, so it could engineer a VLP that thermo-fischer wouldn't be able to detect and reject on site. Or it would be able to deftly bypass supply chain safeguards, hacking into MIT or something (who has no ASI defender) to get you a .edu email and the appearance of institutional backing.

See, in a world where everyone has ASI, it's as though no one does. It's just normal society, where everyone's wishes and capabilities are mediated by group dynamics, everyone kind of has to stay within the overton window, and deviations are policed largely by the community, and then by the state when need be.

But in a world where only anthropic has ASI, or only openAI, or only the US government, then the *first* bad idea they have is immediately implemented with no resistance, with no hope of stopping it.

And on a long enough timeline, its only a matter of when, not if, they will have a bad idea.

Pluralism has served America well for a long time, and when it comes to ASI, I'm a pluralist too.
