  –“Good, you’re learning humbleness”—Giego Caleiro That’s unlikely. It’s that I’ve finished the research project, and have moved on to explanation and application. So I’m not attacking ideas to learn how to disambiguate them. I’m just working on explaining everything with spectra of market demands rather than monopoly ideals.

—Because “Responsible” is a moral term in which one has choice, and “Insurer” is a legal term in which one has no choice.— Curt Doolittle Bill Joslin: Insurer seems to tie into property in that if one does not or fails to insure a property (abandon it) they lose the ability to demonstrate it as…

Rights do not exist between peoples. Power exists. Rights are exchanged between kin for the purpose of cooperation in the pursuit of wealth and power. Everything else is just religious wishful thinking – the kind of thinking that makes people poor. ~Curt Doolittle

(uncomfortable Truth Warning) HISTORY OF THE IE CIVILIZATIONS: The European, Caucasian, Iranic, and Indian Peoples. Look. The IE expansion occurred in Ukraine and Russian north of the black sea out of what appears to have been a competition between proto-european and proto-iranic peoples (and not proto-turkic peoples). The southern and caucasian branch has largely been…

Oct 30, 2019, 12:26 PM The market demand for personal mindfulness (Spiritualism) whether empathic-femining (theological), moral-masculine(rational), or analytic-masculine(scientific) exists, and all three demands exist for most of us. The question is, given how the various religions solved mindfulness (Stoicism-epicureanism, buddhism, hinduism, abrahamism) which produces agency (stoicism), which produces optimism (hinduism), which produces withdrawal from reality…

  Advice to Libertarian(ideology), Constitutional (rule of law), Right(normative tradition), and Religious(theological tradition): Avoid “Traditional” as it’s indefensible. (FWIW; it means ’empirically successful in pre technological history because of the division of labor necessary under intergenerational agrarianism.’) Better argument is “Biological gender roles constitute the optimum Nash equilibrium under which all of us do the…

We don’t need to ‘hate’ anyone, we simply need the “rule of law of reciprocity”, and must insist on truthful and reciprocal speech to the public in public matters, as well as voluntary association and disassociation. The left are the haters and can’t succeed without lying and sowing discord between genders, classes, and identities. With…

(worth repeating) —“Millenials and Gen Z are mad that we have no community, society, fair ratio of marriageable women, reason to invest at all. Most of us would trade what we have now for communism, anarchy or any number of flawed systems. Philosophically speaking, fight club or the joker are more compelling than most or…

  —“Commons are for high-input, savage hunter-gatherers. Deconstruction of the commons via recognition of private property is the first step to civilisation.”— Jonathan Besler Um. Well, not quite the argument you’re making. European Hunter gatherers either did not produce fixed commons (hunting grounds, grazing grounds, farms) before they competed with settled peoples, only after they…

“Q: HOW IS YOUR CONCEPT OF RECIPROCITY DIFFERENT FROM THE COMMON-LAW CONCEPT OF CONTRACT?” —“… … One Law to Rule Them All … One Law to Find Them … One Law to Bring Them All … And into Reciprocity Bind Them. … The Natural Law of Reciprocity: Heroism, Excellence, … Sovereignty, Reciprocity, Testimonial Truth, Jury,…

(from elsewhere) Yep. Any country can be great if it first creates a good disciplined nationalist military that then produce a judiciary, that then produces a government, that then produces a market, that then funds commons. People think it’s the other way around. it isn’t. Its military on down. One step at a time.

Oct 30, 2019, 12:30 PM 1) spaces are now general purpose rather than designed for function. This makes them less amenable to artistic treatment because they have to be ‘resold’. 2) Postwar materials (steel, glass, and panel products) are not amenable to organic arts, and it’s organic arts that constitute the majority of the western…

(Editor Brandon Hayes, with multiple authors) We have some very serious issues with our economics and our economy as current: Plausible Bubbles (short list; none are ever sure, when one goes others follow or become hidden): Student Debt Credit Debt (That’s cards and lines from banks) Housing Commercial Real-estate Automobiles Healthcare State Pensions Federal Debt…

I call it Vitruvianism in honor of Davinci’s Vitruivan Man. —“Man is the System of Weights and Measures for all things Human”— But the first man to say it: —“Man is the measure of all things.”— Protagoras

—“What we like or want may not be good for us.” — Curt Doolittle Context of the original quote was that we have used a variety of techniques to generate hyper-consumption and especially conspicuous hyper consumption, and even worse, conspicuous hyper consumption of virtue signals. In other words, we may like hyper consumption but that…

Q: Biggest programming mistakes? (from elsewhere) All my big mistakes are the same, and I remember them. I keep working when I’m too tired to keep working: So, I wrote more functionality than I needed to; I forget that I wrote something and wrote it again; I forget that I wrote it over there and…

—“It’s worth noting that universal suffrage males gave women the vote, and in 1932, it was men who supported FDR over Hoover (who women supported more). Voting used to be granted as a reward for responsibilities, as a consequence of it. Own land, pay taxes and part of the militia who keeps the country free…

  The expansion of the technique invented by usury into a group strategy for the destruction of civilizations, and the reversal of human evolution, restoring man to condition of animal. Baiting in to Hazard, by use of False Promise, Argued by Sophism, Under cover of Moral Pretense, Justified by Critique, for the purpose of profiting…

Baiting in to Hazard (certain risk); By use of False Promise (circumvention of reality); Under cover of Sophism (pilpul); Justified by Critique (lie, criticism, straw manning) Under cover of Moral Pretense (lie); Under cover of Plausible Deniability (lie); For the purpose of profiting (by harm) From consumption of accumulated assets (undermining): … truth, reason, delay…

Oct 31, 2019, 8:09 AM —“Quoting yourself?”—Chip Sills Is there some other way of demonstrating that a body of text is an excerpt from a larger body of text, thereby informing the reader that there is more to be known if desired? Is there some reason I shouldn’t disambiguate new content from repeated content? Is…

  —“Seriously, why don’t you write in sentences, the layperson can understand? Nobody, absolutely nobody wants to carry dictionary or Thesaurus around with them. Again, seriously, who is your audience?”— Seriously, why don’t you recognize that I write the same set of concepts in in essay, argument, aphorism, ‘poetic list’, table, graph, and serialized form…

1-OUTLAW false and ir-reciprocal speech, AND outlaws suppression of truthful and reciprocal speech. 2-REQUIRES all able bodied men bear arms 3-REQUIRES defense of the physical, normative, and informational commons.

—“A few groups of people – those predisposed to developing high-trust – see the current state of things and turn their efforts to the pursuit of liberty. …. All the other groups are just fighting over who gets to be overseer.”—Luke Weinhagen

  —“People are stupid. Plain and simple.”—@hunderkoch We can train them well and rule them well, train them poorly and rule them poorly, train them not and rule them as serfs at higher cost and lower productivity, and train them not and rule them as slaves at even higher cost and lower productivity. What we…
