I'm still slightly puzzled by this whole encode/decode terminology.
Lets say you encode drinking beer and decode drinking alcohol.
Then would you go back and try to encode drinking alcohol? Would you decode drinking alcohol?
For the venerable physics majors, when you get to grad school they decode [GRE + GPA + recommendations] and they tell you, based on that decoding EXACTLY what tier schools you should apply to and what scholarships and what your chances will be.
Hmmm. There must be a flaw here. Maybe, the point is that the higher on the bell curve you are the more irrelevant tests are since you can mimic any part of the bell curve below you.
I think you can have opposite sex identical twins.
I don't think the word identical applies to sex.
It doesn't apply to SS number, does it?
And I think you miss the whole point of tests. Tests do precisely what you suggest - categorize people. What's wrong with saying that all smart people are male? Most physicists are male and physicists equate smart people with physicsts therefore most smart people are male. There is no flaw in this logic.
In a society where women bear children and do nothing else, all smart people are male. By both male and female definitions.
In an amazon society all smart (read respected) people are female.
All categorization works like this. As soon as you buy any concept more advanced than "individual", you are categorizing. Common concepts which are equivalent to "nigger" are: male, female, citizen, company, kike, dego, wop, hockey player, submissive, emotional twat, overbearing macho rooster. What's more the definition of these concepts can be completely changed overnight by some story you see on tv. As soon as we see a latino waving a "Down with Castro" flag we correctly dedudce that all latinos are male, cuban, hate castro, have nothing to do but protest.
I think the part that blows your mind is that all categorizations are completely valid.
Anything is completely valid as long as you state it out loud.
>>>>If I am saying that the job should be done by those people who can do it better, does this make me an anarchist ?
Yeah kind-of , I guess. "better" is such a vague word. I don't think you want things to be "better" - you want things to be different. That's at the heart of anarchy
>>>>>Do problems that some anarchists have had in the past authomatically apply to all anarchists of the present and future ?
Heh, heh. Looks like we did get a bad grade in history:)
>>>>>Is studying history incompatible with logic ?
Yes. Human logic anyway. Most people's logic has zero predictive power historically speaking. By studying history you are dedicating yourself to observing first and drawing conclusions SECOND.

you should read jesse ventura's latest book.:) What you are describing is an abuse of power.
Politicians didn't always only listen to the people who voted for them last election.
How would poor districts ever become rich districts if that were true?
it really would help you to read some history. There have always been anarchists. The problem is they have no goals and can not interact with people by definition.
Any effect they have on the REAL social forces that do indeed CONTROL their lives is arbitrary
Nice analogy about how geeks are a big tuna and the sharks (lawyers) are eating them.
Well one way of getting people in "power" to do what you want is to write protest letters. Stupid right? What happens when a politician gets 500 pounds of mail telling him he sucks? Now imagine organizing a dedicated effort that tracks down ALL IPs and email addresses that politicians use and buries them under personal complaints, thereby cutting off the politicians access to the web untill he does something constructive.
Well maybe it would be too hard to explain the technical aspects of this correctly. The key is to make it impossible for the politician to do business(web or real life) until he deals with the collective concerns of everyone who knows how to click a mouse button. Clicking a button should cause them much grief! Empower us oh technical people!
One other alternative is that we take the water away from the sharks. We don't use them to make decisions for us. This would require WANTING to do this.
We could also teach ourselves to never use information from mass information outlets.
This would require realizing that if we want to get "the best" we don't have to go to ONE place in the WORLD, we just have to go someplace "LOCAL"
(geographically or otherwise)
In any case util you AND your associates are AFFECTED and MOTIVATED to do something and actually DO something, then you don't have the right to an OPINION (much less the right of complaining). If you can't make yourself or your friends do something then why are you talking about it at all?
The first step is cuting taxes. And the zeroth step is raising taxes to educate kids so they will know to cut taxes:)
who cares about some bigwig. Did he do the research? Did he think of the idea? no he didn't Don't give in to the big business model of passing credit up the corporate food chain you twits.
I don't undesrtand the problem that people seem to have with perfect humans. What's wrong with fixing your and your babies genes? I plan on giving myself and my children all the advantages they can get. Lets see who evolves first.
Us linux men have to stick together. Its bad enough that people like hatch are tolerant of all kinds of freaks out there. Now he comes in and he decides he is going to regulate the way I get my music telling those business people what to do.
Sigh.... Its a gritty world out there. Lets teach Hatch a lesson and make the situation too hot for him.
Sorry, 1) I am not interested in your application 2) You sound excitable and suspicious therefore not a good person to give money
I'm sure you think that reading the back of a book or a computer game box is a much better way to decide how to spend your money. Well, go right ahead and support the marketer's kids through college.
Anyone with a bit of sense would be happy to prepay. Just think we could eliminate ALL middlemen. That would be an incredible savings in price for us and all those middle men would have to work as McDonalds managers were they belong.
No offenseve to McDonalds managers, but saying CEOs a class I despise much more, would have sounded silly.
I am please to anounce that the pentium 700 will be shipping tomorrow. This is the hot grits version! It kicks the P4's ass so bad that even natalie portman is not sexy anymore.
for all those people who don't think BTelecom has a right to links, here is a company that has patented memory as we use it today.
Well I sure as hell don't want to pay people any money, so if someone doesn't come up with an alrternative we should just steal this shit. It should be legal to steal from monopolies. That's why the defense department requires at least 2 bids.
I am writing to inform you that your idiocy in going after the site peta.org will not be tolerated in the Unites States. Get out of the United States. We do not need your kind here.
As a result of your highly irresponsible behaviour I will got out of my way to oppose the goals of your organization, even though that was not the intent of peta.org. I hate you.
Even though you hide behind stupid lawyers and judges in my society you are a criminal.

after we stuff you krauts full of McDonalds there won't be much difference, will there?
If I have to suffer by eating this shit then so do you.

i have a foil helmet I made out of aluminum foil.
When I put it on I feel much better. All my problems go away. You people should try it.

most companies won't let you be management anyway, so who cares?

Its the ones that are a GOOD FIT [shock shock] and don't have stupid people thinking like you that matter

I plan on giving myself and my children all the advantages they can get. Lets see who evolves first.
This would really take off if we got teens to cheat on tests with this.
It has a lot of other counter cultural uses.
It is a great idea becuase it completely reorganizes the middle men. Therefore more people with MBAs will have to work in McDonalds.
But is the American public full of sheep? Yes it is. Maybe we need to do this in another country first.
dude that is sick! use ketchup
sorry

i control the linux media. What's the problem. Is your diaper on too tight?
Napster? Music? IP? Its called an online library, you looser - and its free! like all libraries
has anyone noticed how you go to some web pages and the add at the top displays right away while it takes forever for the rest of the page to load.
Some part of that's gotta be deliberate!
