  • “An IQ of 16000 seems absurd”— Well the way it’s calculated is the only way it

    —“An IQ of 16000 seems absurd”— Well the way it’s calculated is the only way it can be calculated. I think (as Chomsky and others have suggested) that (and I have some experience testing it) that our definition of intelligence (model + forecast) today would differ from that definition of intelligence just as our two-handed nervous system differs from the eight limbs of an octopus. In that the models we are capable of perceiving with current intelligence are limited by our capacity to act, and that at some point, the models we rely upon are not longer limited by our capacity to act, any more than our ability to measure is limited any longer by the limits of our senses, or our ability to calculate limited by our reason independent of numbers. So we can model today what we cannot percieve with our senses directly without use of ability to gather information and reduce it to an analogy to our senses. But we can in some senses model the universe, economies and subatomic interactions. This same ability to construct models should not have any limit that I can see other than our ability to continuously excite enough neurons to create such a model. Ergo, it should be possible. The issue is reducing cost of neural transmission and preserving the number of neurons available for learning. As far as I know that’s not difficult since we know that white matter alone does much of it. I just don’t’ know if we’re ‘human’ any longer at that point in other than morphology.

  • How Russians Misunderstand American Civilization

    Dima, You (as most Russians) misunderstand the constitution, because Russians (somewhat like Germans) run their civilization by religion, philosophy and literature, and anglos run and always have run their society by rule of law of reciprocity. Hence anglo fascination with empiricism, french with pseudo-moral literature, germans with rationalism (philosophy), and Russians with Literature. The jews also use law but it is poly ethical, where anglos use universally ethical. The reason being is that russians have yet to develop a substianial commerical middle class that exports the ethics of reciprocity and truthful speech to the rest of the society through participation in the commercial economy. This is all well understood in the research. There is a very good reason that the stock market is dominant in America, the Bond market in London, heavy industry in germany, and military production in russia. RISK FOLLOWS TRUST AND RUSSIANS DON’T HAVE ANY Now, I am a Russophile, and a resident of Ukraine. But I am also a political economist (I study institutions). Russian corruption is absurdly pervasive. And Russian mistrust as well understood as Chinese deception. I would rather be a citizen of russia, run a business in america, labor in germany, and be educated in England. That is because each of us does something better than the other. The only problem in this world that prevents the Circumpolar People (all of us) from Uniting is that russian foreign policy is correct, but russian expansion not. American foreign policy is incorrect, and american expansion not. If our people are to have a future it is by the incremental withdrawal of american empire from world affairs, and the unification of german technology and russian labor and resources. America is lost to our people. The truth is russia and the Intermarium are our only hope. But that hope cannot come until russia matures into a fully diversified commercial economy and russians develop the trust in others that results from it.

    HOW RUSSIANS MISUNDERSTAND AMERICAN CIVILIZATION

    Dima,

    You (as most Russians) misunderstand the constitution, because Russians (somewhat like Germans) run their civilization by religion, philosophy and literature, and anglos run and always have run their society by rule of law of reciprocity.

    Hence anglo fascination with empiricism, french with pseudo-moral literature, germans with rationalism (philosophy), and Russians with Literature. The jews also use law but it is poly ethical, where anglos use universally ethical.

    The reason being is that russians have yet to develop a substianial commerical middle class that exports the ethics of reciprocity and truthful speech to the rest of the society through participation in the commercial economy.

    There is a very good reason that the stock market is dominant in America, the Bond market in London, heavy industry in germany, and military production in russia.

    RISK FOLLOWS TRUST AND RUSSIANS DON’T HAVE ANY

    Now, I am a Russophile, and a resident of Ukraine. But I am also a political economist (I study institutions). Russian corruption is absurdly pervasive. And Russian mistrust as well understood as Chinese deception.

  • Which U.s. Allies Would Back Up Their “support” With Actual Troops If America Was Attacked?

    There are people with more understanding of field capacity than I have, but as far as I know the only people (a) reading and willing, (b) able to contribute whatsoever, are the British. Unfortunately the british vision of training is going home for dinner at 5:00pm (which our soldiers complain about endlessly.)

    The French undermine Americans (they undermine Europe as a whole) at every opportunity. They will never participate in our defense. They are as likely to side with the enemy as help us. The aussies can fight but they’re far away, and small in numbers.

    We learned a great deal from Libya. Europe can handle a bit of civil unrest but is otherwise entirely defenseless. The military is little more than a social service program to reduce unemployment.

    The British and French are nuclear powers.

    Germany is down there with Indonesia and Canada – a military in pretense only

    Worse, European Armies don’t train and can’t fight.

  • Are There Any Benefits To Being White In American Society?

    There are worldwide benefits to being white, for the simple reason that we are less suspect of malfeasance because in reality other than the japanese we are statistically less likely to engage in malfeasance. This has largely to do with the fact that we have self-domesticated ourselves over 4000 years if not 20000 years, by the aggressive suppression of behaviors that cannot be suppressed in other territories and climates. In other words, stereotypes are extremely accurate predictors – the most accurate predictors in the social sciences. Only americans deny that for some reason.

  • Is The Proliferation Of Food Allergies A Result Of The Human Race No Longer Adhering To The Survival Of The Fittest Theory And Subsequently Poor Genes That Would Have Previously Died Out Are Now Being Passed On?

    no. its due to dietary changes.
