Nothing would do the world more good than to divert all military spending to, instead, relocate people to the locations where their ideals are being put to the test.
Remember, he's talking to individuals about how to maximize their own safety. He's not making policy recommendations for government, nor even for businesses that might be under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Has anyone actually gone down his list, point by point, and explained why his advice to his kids is bad without going all ad hominem on his lily-white ass?
There are various frontiers to social evolutionary development and having overcome sexism and homophobia the next obvious taboo to break toward the ultimate social perfection is Man-Boy-Love! How can we go on denying that a founding value of high civilization is Man-Boy-Love? There be a DSM category, like "racism", "mysogyny" and "homophobia" for those who oppose pedophilia -- poor bastards need help!
When is the SPLC going to sue Electronic Arts for the hate crime of practicing the politics of exclusion against pederasty??? Has the SPLC been taken over by neo-Nazis???
First of all, if 1% of children born are in some way disabled -- whether there has been an increase or not -- it is still an emergency. What has "emerged" is the ability to detect the disability.
Secondly, it is in the interests of the Powers That Be to discount any degradation of conditions as merely "better diagnosis". If societal disasters really are increasing under their rule, they can turn that to their benefit by claiming that without them, we never would have become aware of of the problems created by their predecessors.
So get off this "its just better diagnosis" bromide.
We are facing a disaster -- whether new in the making or not.
Africa's IQ level is the lowest of any continent. Raise it and the rest will be much easier. Nutrition is a part of that but if you don't focus on the aspects of nutrition that raise IQ first -- preferably by preventing childhood brain mal-development -- you're wasting your effort.
You know how I know all these "We're So Concerned About Africa So Lets Spend Lots More Money There" elites aren't serious about helping Africans?
They've funded nothing in the area of smart drugs that might be a very inexpensive way to help Africa. Why the selective loss of cognitive function, oh thou Holier-Than-Thou-Intelligensia? Why can't you talk honestly about IQ when it comes to Africans? Is that because you enjoy the social status of appearing to nubile Harvard coeds and Harvard teaches its nubile coeds that it is Sin to think about Race and IQ?
Put heart disease drugs in the water supply so we can combat the racism of these envious disgruntled aging white males who are opposed to importing a substantial portion of the population of Asia to the US.
Its almost as though they think the US is entitled to territory or some Holocaust-spawning idea like that.
As a friend of mine tells it, his foster-brother committed burglary, was caught and the sheriff managed to get a kid to commit suicide before going to trial (for burglary) by simply threatening him with prisoner rape.
OK, so he had plausible deniability because all he really told the kid was that young blond-hared blue-eyed boys like he are prime rape-meat for ethnic prison gangs. The kid got "scared straight to hell.
The evolutionary pressure is pretty obvious: Even a scratch can become infected and serious fights do result in worse wounds than mere scratches. Furthermore, whether you're evolved for group promoting cultures (most of the world) or individual promoting cultures (pre-christian northern Europeans and most sexual species) a mere "fight" can escalate to mortal combat (war for groups and natural duel* for individuals). The stakes have to be pretty high to initiate these.
*I use the term "natural duel" in a technical sense that excludes the artifices we have known as "duels" in civilization: Two individuals (males) in an open natural setting -- not in an arena or ring -- using everything at their disposal to hunt down and kill their rival. In the human case this includes the use of tools/weapons of their own making as well as strategy and improvisation.
Eusocial species are ecologically dominant. Civilizations are eusocial creatures that utilize individual humans as components by mutilating their individual autonomy. If you really want a humane way to stop "humanity" from destroying the planet, you have to come up with an alternative to civilization that appeals to human nature and that guarantees civilization cannot re-emerge in the biosphere.
A single rule will suffice: Anyone who is challenged to a "natural duel" and refuses to accept the challenge is executed.
"Natural duel" is the appeal of last resort in dispute processing between males of virtually all sexual species. Humans differ only in the way they, as individuals, relate to the natural environment, and there must be rules that recognize those differences:
The "natural duel" between humans must abide by the following rules:
Takes place in a natural, not civil, setting.
The area of combat must be large and varied enough to allow strategy and intelligence to counter-balance brute force.
The combatants enter from opposite sides of the area of combat.
Weapons or tools should be chosen to be simple enough that an individual can and generally will fabricate them for themselves from natural resources directly available to them.
No one is allowed in the area of combat nor to observe what goes on.
At most one individual is allowed to survive the combat before being allowed to leave the combat area.
We were treated to nearly a century of mass media manipulation, and it is only now that the Internet is starting to awaken people that these "experts" have figured out that democracy "doesn't always pick the best candidate"?
No, what's really going on is they're trying to dismantle self-governance before the populace wakes up from its nearly century-long mind control by mass media.
The primary discipline stated in a memo to the technical staff: "The home terminal is to be viewed as the host system nearest the user."
64-bit object ID with the system ID counter bit-reversed from the high order bits. This division of the 64-bits was to be temporary, giving way to a distributed hash that would derive the destination system.
A distributed atomic action protocol based on David P. Reed's thesis that is now realized in the Croquet Project's "tea-time". A major difference being that the object's version ID was made fixed length by allocating a fixed interval of values for the loop counter for each call depth. Reed required a timeout for each of level and I just told him, "OK, if you can demand a timeout, I can demand a state count limit." Arvind and Gostelow's U-interpreter was a virtual dataflow machine with data tokens that were isomorphic to Reed's so I was trying to get them together to do a functional programming model of atomic actions, since they were just two floors from each other in MIT's LCS.
The Forth virtual machine, initially to be burned into the terminal's ROM, would be replaced by a Novix chip or similar derivative in the next generation. This would be the hardware that would interpret the Smalltalk. Moreover, machine-dependent Forth words would have multiple implementations that would be selected based on the type of terminal. My expectation was that the then-recently-discovered type inference and related JIT techniques (pioneered by HP's version of Basic back in the 70s) could make Smalltalk execution on a Novix style chip practical.
I wrote the following article during my tenure as the chief
architect for the mass-market videotex experiment conducted
by AT&T and Knight-Ridder News called "Viewtron" -- a service
of the joint-venture company, Viewdata Corporation of America.
As can be sensed in the article, I had encountered some fairly
frustrating situations and was about to be told by the
corporate authorities that my telecomputing architecture,
which would have provided a dynamically downloaded Forth
graphics protocol in 1983 evolving into a distributed
Smalltalk-like environment beginning around 1985, would be
abandoned due to a corporate commitment to stick with Tandem
Computers as the mainframe vendor -- a choice which I had
asserted would not be adequate for my architecture. (At least
Postscript survived.) I was subsequently offered the head
telecomputing software position at Prodigy by IBM and
turned it down when they indicated they would not support my
architecture either, due to a committment to limit merchant
access to their network to only those who had a special
status with the service provider (IBM/CBS/Sears). The distributed
Smalltalk system was specifically designed to allow the sort
of grassroots commerce now emerging in the world wide web --
particularly as people recognize JavaScript is similar to the
Self programming language and the Common Lisp Object System.
This wasn't in keeping with IBM's philosophy at that time since
they had yet to be humbled by Bill Gates.
My independent attempt at developing this sort of service was
squashed by the U.S. government when it provided UUCP/Usenet
service to a competitor in San Diego and would not offer me
the same subsidy via MILnet -- a network that was not for
public access, by law, and which was exclusively for military
use. My complaints to DoD investigators resulted in continual
"We're looking into it." replies.
Videotex Networking and The American Pioneer
by Jim Bowery (circa 1982)
With the precipitous drop in the price of information technology,
computer-based communication has come within the technical and
economic reach of the mass-market. The term generally used for this
mass-market is "videotex" because it reduces the cost of entry into
the home by using the most ubiquitous video display device, the
television screen, to deliver its service.
The central importance of this new market is that it brings the
capital cost of establishing a publication with nation-wide
distribution to within the reach of the mass-market as well. This
means that anyone who is a "consumer" of information on this new
technology can also be a "producer" of information. The distinction
between editorial staff and readership need no longer be a function of
who has how much money, but rather, who has the greatest consumer
appeal. The last time an event of this magnitude took place was the
invention of the offset printer which brought the cost of publication
to within the reach of small businesses. That democratization of
cultural evolution was protected in our constitution under freedom of
the press. Freedom of speech was intended for the masses. In this
new technology, the distinction between press and speech is beginning
to blur. Some individuals and institutions see this as removing the
new media from either of the constitutional protections rather than
giving it both. They see a great danger in allowing the uncensored
ideas of individuals to spread across the entire nation within seconds
at a cost of only a few cents. A direct quote from a person with
authority in the management of this new technology: "We view videotex
as 'we the institutions' providing 'you the people' with information."
I wonder what our founding fathers would have thought of a statement
like that.
Mass-media influences cultural evolution in profound ways. Rather
that assuming a paternalistic posture, we should be objecti
The problem with experimental controls is even worse for the social sciences, yet we think that it is ok to pass laws at the Federal level that presume some social science hypotheses to be valid and others to be invalid. Understand that this isn't merely, "doing the best that we can" but is violating the consent of huge swaths of the population. In some cases, such as liberalizing immigration policy, it is violating the consent of the majority of the population and does so repeatedly over the course of decades.
The "best that we can do" is give people choice: Let them migrate to territories shared by mutual consent that operate under the hypotheses in human ecology they believe in -- rather than ramming down their throats the considered opinions of top men, let alone the crazed inquisitions of morally vain church ladies of political correctness.
Most of the/. readers are concerned about age-related cognitive decline -- either that or they've already declined cognitively to the point that they should forget about/. and turn on the TV.
The best way, currently known, to slow age-related cognitive decline is exercise because it produces Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor.
Any platform that purports to be "open" cannot truly be open if its data is not in a distributed store (eg: Usenet) to which anyone can connect in a read-write mode (eg: Bitcoin).
If a closed group maintains control of the data, it controls the platform's use and represents a takeover target by interests inimical to the purpose of the platform.

In 1995, Robert W. Bussard submitted this legislation to all relevant Congressional committees, copying all US plasma physics laboratories.
Needless to say, the legislation wasn't passed.
Do you think the time is right?
