(Asana came out with a new logo and UI today. They took design cues on the color scheme from Slack, and they took font cues from Evernote. Following design in the application and site businesses is as interesting as following design in fashion. If you follow it you see how the ripples move across the aesthetic pond. )

NOT A WHITE NATIONALIST. SORRY.
Culture-ist yes. Class-ist yes. Intelligence-ist, yes. Gender-ist, yes. Right of exclusion-ist, yes. Tribe-ist, nope. Racist Nope. Sorry. Not my thing. The meaningful differences between the races and tribes are differences in distributions not differences in properties. Aristocracy is for everyone. The more tribes the better. The more colorful the better. I read Darwin. I’m reasonably current on genetics. I’m all for restoring eugenic reproduction via one child policy for the dependent classes. And I’m all for charity for the dependent underclasses. But I’m into bettering every human family, not blaming other humans for acting like humans. So my preference is to criticize westerners for their suicidal group evolutionary strategy, not others for exercising theirs. But then again I am a rather scientific philosopher, and not a populist.

( is it the moon or something? Why is it these women are hitting on me today? Must be tourists. Or the season change. Or God knows. Although I do notice that women are more attracted to you when you’re in get-it-done mode. Despite the fact that it means you’re oblivious to their interests. I am sure I could figure it out but I am too busy. )

(truth is I feel much safer with Putin and Russia disciplining the middle east than I do Americans)

ANOTHER THOUGHT ON REPUBLICS
A republic or an oligarchy by any other name, even one ruled by law, is a notoriously indecisive form of organization. I do not see a better division of labor than the one we discovered by accident. A republic is an excellent means of producing commons. A monarchy an excellent means of conducting war. And a democracy an excellent means of fooling the people into suicide.
The Optimum that I know of:
1) Monarch, Military, and Militia for the defense of people, territory, routes, and trade.
2) Independent Judiciary for the resolution of conflicts, Rule of law, Property en Toto.
3) An independent treasury for the provision of credit (issuance and repurchase of shares)
4) Houses for the Production of Commons with members drawn by lot.
5) Families for the production of generations under voluntary selection of mates.
6) Men and Women forming Militia and emergency services.
7) Private provision of public goods.
We had it about right. If we had given women and the proletarians houses and maintained land and property requirements we would have created a market for commons, instead of the fallacy of majority rule (mob rule).
