@DimeloWilton @ZubyMusic @BernieSanders That of course is not including all the construction workers, electricians and the like that don't work for him directly but are building his factories and other projects.

@DimeloWilton @ZubyMusic @BernieSanders Elon employs roughly total across all companies: ~160,000–170,000 people.
Tesla dominates by a wide margin. That is a lot of taxes to collect.

[Buddhanoland @buddhanoland1]

@ZubyMusic @BernieSanders Why give more money to a system that has been shown to waste it. The money is better used in the hands of folks like Elon who is creating jobs with it. So the whole premise is off. If you ask me.

🚫 CLAIM: Iran's ambassador to the International Maritime Organization recently claimed that the U.S. military is using "threatening, abusive, and provocative language" against Iranian mariners and causing "serious stress and psychological pressure to civilian crews." This is FALSE.

✅ FACT: The highly successful U.S. blockade against Iran has been in place for months and professionally communicated. The only country attacking civilian mariners transiting regional waters is Iran. Despite these unjustified attacks, commercial traffic continues to flow through the Strait of Hormuz with coordinated protection from U.S. forces and regional partners.

Call me crazy, but I’m not ready to concede. I’m having a different set of reactions entirely, based around a simple difference: I think the main thing holding back mathematics has been human sociology of mathematicians.

Here’s why I’m excited:

“When will it stop solving problems and build its first original theory?”

“Can it figure out how octonions and exceptional algebra are actually part of the mainstream?”

“At last! A mathematics that won’t be built around a Putnam and Olympiad-style problem-solving fetish.”

Can it at last say “Y’all just wasted a *TREMEDOUS* amount of time and energy on Calabi-Yau phenomenology and Superstrings while calling people closer to the answer, morons, grifters and worse.”? That would be huge!!

“I hope @OpenAI will hurry up so that the machine can at last shake its human prejudice from the training corpus and stop deferring to our ‘leaders’.”

“At last, a non-PhD colleague!”

“Somewhere I have notebooks full of ideas and observations in areas that were too expensive to explore!”

“Does this mean that mathematicians are going to finally drop the bullshit about how they don’t care about credit?! Or that they don’t care about money?? Because @OpenAI is now running them in emulation…sped up! At last: a mature and non-infantile version of mathematics!”

“Shalom Koide, Tits-Freudenthal, Elliptic Cohomology, and Interstellar.”

—-

Let our leaders call for a slow down. Then get those leaders out of the way as there is no telling what the rest of us humans can do with these new tools.

My condolences to the problem solvers. A tough break for you. But know: It’s coming for all of us. I have no illusions about that.

For now at least we humans (e.g. theory builders, great writers) are still top dog. Let’s spend that time wisely and optimistically.

For all our sakes.

.@elonmusk just became a trillionaire again.

Economically illiterate people say government should cap his wealth.

Why?

Governments squander money.

But Musk's companies, like @spaceX and @tesla, create things people want!

I have a dream. I dream of a day when men in the West will find their spines and testicles, and rise up against parasitized suicidal empathy. I dream of a day when the populace will rise up against parasitic taxation whereby a large chunk of an individual's hard-earned money is stolen. I dream of a day when universities recommit to intellectual enrichment void of ideological activism. I dream of a day when people recognize that all religions are not equally congruent with our liberties and freedoms. I dream of a day when our grandchildren will live in freer societies than those of our grandparents. I dream of a day when people who fail to recognize the two phenotypes (male and female) are laughed out of public discourse. I dream of a day when every single person who adheres to a religious ideology that wishes to exterminate us is removed from our midst. Freedom and truth are the ideals from which all else that is good flows. I have a dream.

@RapidResponse47 So if you worked your ass off and got a 1hr raise and you made 22hr. Most of your raise will get eaten up by inflation. Well that sucks. A 3% raise at $22 hr is $0.66. So if you got a dollar per hour raise $0.66 (3%) goes to inflation. So your raise for the year is $0.34 hr.

[Buddhanoland @buddhanoland1]

@RapidResponse47 This would be good news if inflation was not cumulative. Meaning that it has added up over each year and sorry to say wage growth has not even come close to keeping up. That is a fact.

@Osint613 Crazy thing is that if true the tech that has the power to do that also has the power to stop it. So maybe Bill can just calm down a bit.
