Interested in many things, from dharma to space, futurism, science and technology, self-preservation and matters that defy explanation until they're explained.

@Kekius_Sage Not a new idea

[leopardoftime @leapordoftime]

@frontierindica Don't need it. You can leapfrog it with tech. Surveillance tech plus AI, facial recognition, behavioral pattern detection and modification, plus pre-crime arrests. Societies like the UK have this Achilles heel resistance to the new paradigm. East can win big by taking the lead.

@buddhimedia If it's an engineering problem yes. If it's a human problem then no. Most human problems have no solution possible but trying to implement a solution at worst can create chaos, out of which you get or create (new) order. You get new situations, actors, problems and progress.

@Eternally_Jaded CIA psyop

@rand_longevity You won't get outside the simulation. You can get glimpses outside it and you can hack it for short periods but that's all.

When unavailable you have to physically lock potential for challenge to elite structures and hierarchies. Ekavalya's thumb

[leopardoftime @leapordoftime]

If systemic insecurity is to be a default state, and you cannot rely on secrecy to maintain hierarchies because there is no baseline level of trust, then you have to engineer failure, mechanically.

Shakespeare Henry 5: moves in secret among people, people think he's one of them - gets yeomanry. Soldier bayonet feels competent, in complete ignorance of officer smallsword. Veiled competence of a plus ignorance of p equals trust and confidence. Result: levy/yeoman army unlock

@rand_longevity A lot will indeed be cured but the timelines proferred right now are a joke. That's actually good for many reasons, e.g. because gen x women won't suddenly become fertile again, etc.

[leopardoftime @leapordoftime]

@dollar_mara True but I think with these types the nose comes first and the numbers come after. A bit like nassim taleb. He has a position first which can be right or wrong then comes up with a proof later.

[leopardoftime @leapordoftime]

@585_sammy It's high right now. But not as high as its board. They remind me of a movie in which a cokehead says, "get enough lawyers in a room and they can make any issues go away". Lawyers would never agree with that statement. Cokeheads probably would.

@brickandmorta11 The Shilpa shastras are geometrical and mathematical in their strict prescription of temple design. They don't value aesthetics or emotion. They are abstracted and elitist. That's what makes them the model the superstitious and impressionable try to emulate using aesthetics

[leopardoftime @leapordoftime]

@brickandmorta11 I don't think mystical experiences have proven to be a sound basis for civilizational bedrock material. Lots of feel good experiments were tried and they all failed and left India with disastrous problems. The way forward must be to lean into the rational, measured, analytical.

@ericweinstein This is a bad take. Why should the onus be on your country to retain him with better carrots just because he's a scientist? The situation is exactly the same as a former marine going to work for the people's army because he likes their food and retirement benefits.

[leopardoftime @leapordoftime]

@kushal_mehra Install some kind of corruption that gives a pretext for central policing agencies to be in the area. They won't like that and will try to police it themselves to prevent central government oversight. When they have to come out themselves to clean the streets, you will get data.

[leopardoftime @leapordoftime]

@kushal_mehra Watch the movie industry and music industry. I expect these will be the top level of the money laundering. On a street level it will be takeaways and fast food. As there are too many to monitor you can bait them out using subterfuge.

[leopardoftime @leapordoftime]

@kushal_mehra Prostitution/massage salons are a good tactic. The active ones don't like eyes on their turf so they will come out when under pressure from local communities. The ones who come out will be those whose businesses you have to monitor.

@Somnath64806208 @darkandcrude Nailed it

[leopardoftime @leapordoftime]

I'm not seeing enough movement on pre-crime policing. London has a very large number of surveillance cameras, and would be the ideal place to test new tech and paradigms. Train the AI models now, so that problematic behaviours can be nipped in the bud before they're problems.
