    THE ARISTOCRACY OF EVERYBODY, IS A FAILURE

    It isnt’ just that the majority cannot join the aristocracy, and earn, use and keep property rights. It is that they do not desire to earn, use and keep property rights. People want the benefits of aristocracy but not the effort. They want to be serfs. They want to be taken care of. They don’t want to bear risks. They don’t want to compete, And they aren’t able to. And they demonstrate it at every opportunity.

    Having empirically proven that the enlightenment effort to bring all of mankind into the aristocracy, has been a catastrophic failure, and at present is threatening western civilization; the question is then, whether we abandon the enlightenment goal of an ‘aristocracy of everybody’, and demand property rights by force of arms once again, as we previously civilized the barbarians of teh world, or whether we let ourselves, our civilization and aristocracy die.

    Not with a roar of triumph. Not with a whimper. But with silent cowardice.

    GOVERNMENT IDIOCY

    What is, scientifically, the health problem in america? We get our sweet from sugar instead of fat. We don’t exercise. We force children to sit rather than exercise.

    Why do we want sugar? Because we are not getting oxygen from exercise (walking and running)

    Why is it such a problem? Because MSG makes you ravenous and eat voraciously, more than you normally would.

    Are trans-fats bad? Oh. Sure. Will the government stop subsidizing corn syrup? Um No. Will the government stop subsidizing sugar? Um. No. Will the government ban MSG as a toxin and a drug? Um, no. Will the government return our children to having (intense) ‘recess’ every couple of hours? Um no.

    Nothing rational at all. Nothing smart out of that city ever.

    Absolutely humiliating. You’d have to know the women in my family. It’s just like being home. Weak women are tedious. Strong women are awesome. 🙂

    IDEALISM AND LYING

    (venting)(contemporary american politics)

    You know, Bush was morally driven, idealistic and strategically stupid at times, but he wasn’t a liar. Anything but.

    This guy, Obama, is morally drive, idealist, and strategically stupid, and he’s the laziest, most profligate liar, we’ve ever had in the presidency.

    That is the difference between conservatives and liberals. Conservatives speak in arational language. Progressives speak in obscurant language, and where they can’t they just basically lie.

    Conservatives protect against incrementalism. Progressives APPLY incrementalism.

    (I don’t like politics, my work is political economy. But this guy, well, he’s just the worst thing to happen to this country since Johnson.)

    dammit…. You converted me. In one post. Just took a few months to sink in. But, how do we solve it? Framing, language, and … we can’t give up on science. Or, is that why you’ve gone to Transhumanism? Because you think there isn’t any other way out?

    I’ve learned an absurd amount from you because it’s impossible to discount your arguments as not thought through. Thank you.

    THE MYTHOLOGY OF THE ENLIGHTENMENT

    The enlightenment mythos was almost as damaging was christianity. The greatest tragedy in human history may have been the christianization of Europe. The empirical side of the enlightenment was desperately needed to escape jewish mysticism that held us in ignorance for a millennia. Equality under the law, was important for the spread of commerce.

    But, just as moving people from christianity’s mysticism via Darwin was, let’s say … incomplete, it is very hard to move people from equality of property rights, equality under the law, and the equality of family interests, to what the socialists accomplished, which was equality of opportunity, material equality, inequality under the law, eradication of the common law by legislative law, and the destruction of the nuclear and absolute nuclear family in pursuit of ‘individualism’.

    We have a very hard time overturning this mythos. This mythos is even rampant in libertarianism. Libertarians are just as enamored of the fallacy of equality as are socialists. Libertarians want to retain meritocracy, sure. But most of us assume the same naive belief that if others ‘only understood’ they would adopt our system of values.

    But that’s just demonstrably false, both logically, praxeologically, and empirically. The majority of the world detests property rights and individualism.

  • THE FEMALE ARMS RACE AGAINST MEN: ‘HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN I RALLY’? (draft)(sketch)

    THE FEMALE ARMS RACE AGAINST MEN: ‘HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN I RALLY’?

    (draft)(sketch)(interesting idea) (REVISED)

    AGAINST ‘RALLYING’ and ‘SHAMING’.

    The anti-gun emotional-reaction by women is not rational or empirical, but instinctual. . The female strategy for controlling her reproduction is to rally others to her defense. A man with a weapon both intimidates her, and reduces the value of ‘others’. Any empirical argument she makes is justificationary, not scientific.

    Our moral intuitions are not rational. Some women are so solipsistic that they see a rapist behind every T-shirt and necktie. They have it backwards of course, as the evidence shows.

    The problem for women is that they have as hard a time suppressing their irrational emotions as we males have suppressing our physicality. There are higher consequences for our failure to suppress physicality, and we assumed that there are lower consequences for failure of women to suppress rallying. But we were WRONG.

    We have retained constraints on male physicality, and abandoned constraints on female solipsism and emotional control over rallying us via emotion. We have stopped ‘punishing women’ for improper rallying, but retained the punishment of men for improper physicality.

    This has allowed women to immorally use ‘rallying’ the same way men rally crowds with violence. But while violence may be destructive to property, women’s solipsistic uncontrolled emotions empower the minority of males to use the violence of the state, and to increase the extraction of rents and increase their free riding by coddling women.

    Women would have themselves feel free to rally. But we men unfree to resist rallying. Rallying in the form of the state.

    We evolved to take women seriously, in the sense that they are troubled by something we feel the need to fix it. But there are many things that they are not to be taken seriously about. There are many things that they should be actively suppressed about rallying for, out of their instinctual, visceral reactions rather than rational reactions.

    And this is one of them. Freedom, liberty, and safety, and the equality and demand for reason that comes from the use of arms, is to important to tolerate women’s inappropriate rallying.

    We must remember that women’s rallying IS A WEAPON. It evolved AS A WEAPON. It is possibly the cause for the origin of SPEECH: rallying.

    But female rallying is violence against us and it is a weapon, just as carrying a weapon is defense against RALLYING.

    Women marry the state and rally statists and fools.

    It is an arms race.

    And we cannot let them win.

    SHAMING Is an act of theft. RALLYING is an act of aggression. Never tolerate either from women. REQUIRE REASON not RALLYING or SHAMING.

  • What Is The Best Kanban Board Software That Integrates With Sharepoint?

    Thanks for asking me to answer this question.

    Unfortunately I can’t do it comfortably, because all the products that I would classify as ‘good’ or ‘recommended’, are not on Sharepoint. The reason is architectural.   Although Sharepoint is an amazing and nearly universal product.   Sharepoint isn’t well designed for this problem and neither is Jira really, although at Atlassian they do an amazing job of it.

    This space is our industry, and we know if fairly well, and the best tool we can find for pure (analytical) devs is TargetProcess. It’s very powerful and nerdy. The best tool for production support, and the industry standard is Jira. Jira is simple and usable if you can tolerate the rather terrible navigation. There are a half dozen others that are extremely good.  But these are our top two choices, and they’re the one’s we recommend if our product Oversing would be overkill.

    Our product is probably the most powerful solution by a couple orders of magnitude, but it’s for running an entire services business and making money at it, and so it’s not just a dev tool, and it’s not on Sharepoint.
