Um. The fact that (a) we have always built cities near shores and (b) shores change constantly, and (c) we are in what appears to be a glacial minimum, should provide a rather obvious explanation of why there are any number of underwater cities (architecture). Just like there are many buried cities. The earth…
Improper Sexual Advancement
We are gonna’ have a very hard time overturning improper male sexual advances as a particular universal, since men evolved to act as the sexual aggressors and women the choice makers. It is very hard for a man, as your influence increases, and women pay you outsized attention, to develop the ‘sensitivity’ to…

In a white collar work environment, especially as the percentage of women increases, gay men can be a profound asset to the management team, for the simple reason that they will tell you uncomfortable truths that the women are unwilling unable, or biased against telling you.

Sick for a few days but still making progress. Environment is conducive to recovery but not productivity. I don’t know what to do about that. That said the rest is just work – productivity rather than creativity.

by Curt Doolittle – Consistency in the categorical, internal, correspondent, operational, volitional, reciprocal, and fully accounted dimensions, create universally commensurable statements, just as certainly as constant dimensional relations in the first four dimensions are sufficient to describe any motion of and constant relations in time. by Bill Joslin: – Categorical = identity …

—“Yet the entire pantheon of liberal philosophy and economics admits itself to be based on metaphysical unknowns, they state quite clearly that their forms aren’t empirical. So from the emergence of liberalism and capitalism what do we find? An overload of justification to why some supposed metaphysical unknowns justifies the existence of private property and…

—“Discomfort has always been the strongest utility; no worthy expectation was ever achieved without it. A cost the achiever gladly bears. For the perpetual lower class it works differently, it’s their external incentive for restraint and internal incentive to not act.”— William L. Benge

God? That is something one desires to be. If not, then one is what one desires to be.

Now that we’re going to legislate getting fresh with women, can we legislate women out of gossip? That’s their means of oppression.
Beatings
Plenty of women deserve a beating. Plenty of men deserve a beating. It’s not that people don’t deserve beatings. It’s that we have no longer a standard of deserving a beating. We beat each other by proxy now. Which is unfortunate. Because societies are much more civil where you can get a beating if you…
Education’s Original Thesis
Primary School: Grammar (repetition) Elementary School: Logic (understanding) High School: Rhetoric (persuasion) However. The current strategy is this: infantilization.
Let’s Get A Little More ‘Woke’ Today: Raising Men
Ok. so let’s get a little ‘woke’ today, shall we? There are always, at all times, an excess of about 1/3 of men in each of the sizable social classes. There are three frames of reference available to men: the physical, the mental, and the emotional. Think of them as an equilateral triangle…

Propertarianism is not conciliatory or apologetic – it’s completely prosecutorial.

I’ll make you a deal. Don’t rag on me for talking over your head, and I won’t rag on you for your lack of abstract intelligence. It’s a good deal. Really. ‘Cause if you’re a moral man then we’re playing for the same side even if we’re playing in different leagues.

I have a strict no-ridicule, no-meme, no-stupid policy. And it has worked well for me. Either make an argument, say something accomodating, or shut up. The way to defeat Ridicule, Shaming, Gossip, and Rallying ( feminine argument) is to return the ridicule, repeat the material question, avoid all engagement outside of it,…

(FYI: A square root only has meaning as an intermediary state in a multi-state operation – it requires humans. Nature cannot store an intermediary state. “Nature can compute but cannot calculate.” However, squares and fibonacci sequences as well as many other ‘primitive’ operations permit stateless continuous growth by a single, primitive, purely additive operation. We…
The Reciprocity Of Measurement (Infinities)
Operationally defined, no infinite sets can exist, and the idea of infinite sets of different sizes is also impossible. However, what is possible, is that in the generation of positional names, some sets of names must be produced faster and some slower, so that at any given moment the size of the sets will differ.…
The One Law
Evolution’s single law of cooperation: the natural law of voluntary reciprocity. When this law is abridged, we restore devolution and parasitism.
Creating The Market For Devolution
Zoroastrianism[dualism] > Abrahamism[fictionalism] > (Judaism > Christianity > Islam [supernatural overloading]) > (Kantianism(DE/Rationalism) > Marxism(JEW/Pseudoscience) > Postmodernism(FR/Lying)) has been the source of our dark ages. The revolt against reason. The revolt against reality. The revolt against evolution. The revolt against meritocracy. The revolt against aristocracy: the revolt against natural law. Forcible Primitivism. Fictional primitivism that…

(from elsewhere) Prof Wildberger: I love that you’re trying to de-platonize mathematics, and return it to the sciences. Mathematical platonism uses a grammar and semantics of fiction (it’s technically a ‘Fictionalism’). And I can understand why some people have a natural tendency, out of historical bias, and out of the influence of…

How Do You Define Philosophy?
Philosophy. Mindfulness. Dominance over the mind in the face of the unknown. Using grammar of technology. Tech(philio) vs Fiction(religion). Deflation vs Inflation. Mindfulness was necessary at ‘worry’ post-human-scales. All civ’s encountered demand for mindfulness as scale increased – and trust decreased. All about the same time. Probably due to trade. Westerners used competing (class) variants…

Every increase in explanatory power has been the result of a counter intuitive discovery that caused a costly revision of existing categories, relations and values. Just how it is. Your simple sacred cows die. New generations of superior sacred cows evolve. The slaughter continues anew. And in this stepwise fashion evolution leaves behind the detritus…

metaphysical levels: commensurability of operations(changes in state) of constant relations. We have not made the intellectual transition to external coincidences of constant relations at increasing scales ( see lie groups). We are stuck in linearity of relations just as pre einsteinian thought was stuck in length. And we are just beginning to change from studying…
