APPLE MICROSOFT. My prediction was that Microsoft would fail to take control of
APPLE MICROSOFT.
My prediction was that Microsoft would fail to take control of its future and reform before apple’s dependence upon the iPhone would run its course. And that in search of profits, Apple would chase the desktop out of necessity rather than preference.
With microsofts release of a branded high end laptop; the reversal of the Windows 8 and vista catastrophes; the decision to bring gaming back to the PC; then all that is left is to (a) adopt apple’s admin UI scheme, (b) start work on replacing the “digital equipment” era kernel running long processes, with a Linux like kernel running temporary processes.
I dunno.
Using Windows still makes me angry. But I see a glimmer of hope after a two decades of tragedy.

TODAY’S INSIGHTS
Just when you think you are done you hop in the shower and have two insights.
1) add hazard: productive, fully informed, warrantied, voluntary exchange free of hazard and free of externality by the same criteria.
2) My friend Josh has helped me understand that after Propertarianism and testimonialism, that all of philosophy is now a science – other than aesthetics, which is preference. And that this is the fallacy of the continentals: conflating aesthetic preferences with metaphysics, epistemology, ethics and politics.
This, along with the understanding that the nazi movement was an aesthetic one helps me see what as an American I could not: the dominance of aesthetics in European thought. And the use of aesthetics as authoritarian persuasion. Which is enough of a topic that I must go research it.
Because it’s profound.
Beauty as cultural mandate.
Brilliant.

THE TECHNOLOGY OF ‘THEIR’ DECEIT It has taken me over two years to figure it out
THE TECHNOLOGY OF ‘THEIR’ DECEIT
It has taken me over two years to figure it out, but I now understand ‘their’ method of deception. It was harder to figure out than testimonial truth.
We are cognitively biased to optimism out of the necessity to survive in a hostile environment. (we can demonstrate this overwhelmingly in all walks of life).
“Their” strategy is to tell a half-truth as optimism, invoking that bias, in oder to profit from the unstated a pessimistic consequential reality.
This has evolved over time into a feminine-like cognitive bias, that appears to be genetic. This is how ‘they’ prey upon our pathological christian altruism.
This is interesting. Because on the one hand they promote altruism in order to bait us into suicide.
The perfect human trap for europeans, crafted to trap europeans.
If you analyze every one of ‘their’ statements, arguments, narratives, myths and pseudosciences, then you will rapidly identify which optimism they seek to invoke while relying on pessimistic reality to profit.
This is their secret.

(surprised. hmmm. we are winning the argument that the problem is mental illness, not guns. it’s working. this cause however violates the female reproductive strategy seeking to avoid the need to aggress against dangers by justification and gossip, and it also avoids the female reproductive strategy of defending unworthy, and dangerous children because they are female gene vectors.)

CEO LEADERSHIP: SOCIOPATHY OR TRUST? 😉 When you are way out in front, impossibl
CEO LEADERSHIP: SOCIOPATHY OR TRUST? 😉
When you are way out in front, impossible to understand, and incapable of conveying your ideas across the chasm, you develop means of building trust that compensates for comprehension.
This is mistakenly called sociopathy by analysts of successful entrepreneurs: the progressives cannot imagine the severity of the dunning Kruger effect as you move downward in the talent pool.
The most effective means I have found for developing trust is accessibility, participation, and over-communication. If you answer enough ‘why’ questions honestly then they just start trusting you. And to maintain that trust merely publicly admit to failures now and then and explain why you were mistaken.
As a consequence you teach your organization to use the same patterns as you do, and to come to similar conclusions.
I am unable and unwilling to micro manage. So it is the only option available to me.
But I can also move an entire organization in a different direction in ninety days precisely because I force my people to manage themselves, and the don’t need me to micro manage.
There are serious negative externalities to my method that have repeatedly caused me catastrophe: these people tend to think they are better than they are and not dependent on my direction and counsel.
And when I leave a company the consequence is always the same.
Decline.
I wish I knew how to fix it.
