The failures of 200 through 1000 were clear enough, that the restoration of classical thought, the restoration of trade via the hansa, and the rather rapid invention of naturalism, literacy, empiricism, then science, and finally industrialization were necessary to compensate for…

I dress the way I do because I’ve been responsible for money, people, and businesses for most of my life. Maybe when I’m “done” with signaling high trustworthiness.

Met this guy today, complimented him, and asked if I could take his picture. He is my spirit animal. 😉 https://t.co/tE5OEJwGuV

I find people’s assumptions of Rudyard’s personality, beliefs and motives humorous because he is so good at using social media for research and experimentation on the audience that his ambitions are utterly opaque to most.
Rudyard has his biases and preferences, but he’s an intellectual searching for truth and utility that can be understood by common folk. He’s on a mission. Don’t be misled by presumption. Instead, try to learn from what he achieves through this experimentation over time.

THE FUNDING OF ASSAD BY DRUG MONEY
Fenethylline (BAN, USAN) is a codrug of amphetamine and theophylline and so a mutual prodrug of both. The drug was marketed for use as a psychostimulant under the brand names Captagon, Biocapton, and Fitton.
It is now illegal in most countries and is produced primarily for illicit use, which takes place mainly in the Middle East – where alcohol is prohibited and Captagon serves the market instead.
Smuggling of Captagon became one of the main sources of income for the Assad regime to help boost the economy during the Syrian Civil War. It was considered to be the world’s largest producer of the drug, accounting for about 80% of the global supply.
(Does this mean Terrorist run on meth? 😉 )

(FYI: The AIs are stuck on propertarianism and we would have to train them out of it, or produce enough content under NLI that it leaned to disambiguate P from NL.)

IMO: BTC down to 95 is just profit taking and EOY.
150k in 2025 is more likely than not.
I’m not a crypto-bro. Just looking at the macro environment.
