    Like Hegel in Continental (German) secular theology, all roads of anglo scientific rationalism will end with Propertarianism. Deal with it. I did. I don’t even like it. I don’t want the responsibility. It is what it is.

    —“I read Kevin Macdonald – haven’t been the same since.”—

    Says everyone who’s ever read Kevin MacDonald.

    Read Victor Davis Hanson (classical history), Read Buchanan (recent history), MacDonald (Jewish intellectuals, european uniqueness), Duchesne(The History of Thought, european uniqueness), Hicks (Postmodernism), and Doolittle (logic, law, economics, eugenics). And at least DTGTF from Hoppe so you understand why ‘monarchy’, and reduce my workload at convincing you.

  • Increase in clarity: So when I say P, or P-logic, P-Law, and P-Testimony provide

    Increase in clarity:

    So when I say P, or P-logic, P-Law, and P-Testimony provide a universally commensurable paradigm across all fields of human knowledge I mean it. That is what the Table of Grammars codifies. P-logic and P-law provide a universally commensurable language: a SYSTEM OF MEASUREMENT for human testimony (speech) just as mathematics and physics provide a system of measurement for the phsyical world that can’t recall, forcast, or act. And so P-Logic and P-Law consist of what SURVIVES the application of P-logic and P-Law. So of course we will draw from nearly every field. And since economics provides the primary langauge of psychological, and social science, we will use economic langauge rather than the pseudoscences including the pseudoscience of what we generally refer to as philosophy. So yes, it requires quite a bit of knowledge OR a certain kind of mind, to learn this particular VOCABULART, LOGIC, AND LAW. In fact, it’s closest to combining math, physics, programming, economics, and law, and at a minium a knowledge of evolutionary game theory like Axelrod’s evolution of cooperation. So yes. It’ fking hard, and no, if you can’t get into law school, economic school, engineering school, or computer science school, you are not going to have an easy time of something like P-law. It requires too much general knowledge.

    Now conversely if you want to understand the FINDINGS of p-logic and p-law and p-testimony, or the explanation for european civilizational superiority then that’s something we can provide you with. And if you want to learn to argue a few significant points, then that we can do too. But no, getting really good at P is like getting really good at math or physics, and far harder than philosophy or logic, chemistry or biology.

  • “Why not PostgreSQL, rather than MySQL?”— Depends on what you’re doing. joins

    —“Why not PostgreSQL, rather than MySQL?”—

    Depends on what you’re doing. joins vs scale. I designed (and continue to) systems that scale.

    So the question is why not unstructured data (search), why not structured data (joins), or why not federated data (without joins). Imagine a triangle with each of those points on it, and make your choice.

    My opinion is that oracle as usual will continue to malinvest in MySQL until Ingres (which is how I knew it), or Postgressql overtakes it.

    However. I don’t think we get around financial scale = hierarchical, world modeling scale = relational, complex query = object-relational, and text search = object (document).

  • THE EVOLUTION OF COOPERATION IS JUST PHYSICS WITH MEMORY OF DEBTS – AND CONSEQUE

    THE EVOLUTION OF COOPERATION IS JUST PHYSICS WITH MEMORY OF DEBTS – AND CONSEQUENCES FOR PRESENT AND FUTURE CRISES

    The left does not cognitively grasp argumentation because they cannot cognitively distinguish between desirability vs undesirability and truth vs alsehood, where truth (Decidability) refers to independence from opinion, desirability, preference (Choice).

    This inversion of truth and desirability is the instinctual female cognitive weighting of value. This instinct evolved to incentivize males(Asset Obtainers and Controllers) to satisfy female wants and needs (Asset Consumers and Reproducers).

    In fact, it’s more helpful to treat the left as pubescent females lacking offspring to absorb the expansion of their empathy and misapplying that evolutionary instinct evolved to satisfy caloric demands on their immediate behalf to broader political contexts outside their locus of control and accountability.

    Females do not demonstrate this hypersensitivity to stress until puberty when their nervous system is amplified to extend its awareness (sensitivity) to their offspring, just as the male nervous system is oppositely suppressed forcing the expansion of their political (worldly) sensitivity preparing them for political life among males. While we see male and female behavioral tendencies in healthy children from birth, maturity exacerbates these differences, away from the ‘self’ and into empathy in females and analysis in males. Our sense of becoming worldly is not artificial – our nervous systems are altered by nature specifically for this purpose. At which point we focus less on learning (submissive and self-directed) and more on acting (dominance to externally directed).

    We think largely of less subtle urges like hunger, thirst, attention, association, cooperation, and sex: capacities that must be fulfilled. And while we acknowledge boredom as a cognitive capacity that seeks fulfillment, and we infrequently admit that females seek fulfillment of cognitive want for attention and males seek fulfillment of cognitive want for tool use, we overlook that Empathy is a cognitive capacity that seeks cognitive load, just as male analysis is a cognitive capacity seeking load. This is why women with children, especially five or more (the historical norm) demonstrate conservative(hypercapitalizing) behaviors, and men without children demonstrate libertine(hyper consuming) behaviors. It’s why females seek chatter and gossip and men various material crafts (hobbies). And since most of us are some mixture of the two sets of influences (variations in cognitive dimorphism) we can demonstrate the spectrum.

    In other words, we should not take women without children seriously in sociology, economics, politics, strategy, and war, any more than we should take the left without equal accountability seriously in those fields. In other words, in colloquial terms, leftism is the female expression of ‘sh-t testing’: generating demand from dominant(conservative) males to produce more desirable outcomes (hyperconsumption) or to be threatened with uncooperativeness, GSRRM (undermining), deprivation of attention, care, affection and sex. The difference being that we have no need for the left nor want for them and they have nothing to trade (and we nothing to trade with them).

    The left is cognitively female (heightened sensitivity to fear, fear of lower priority, of inequality, of being left behind) and lacking cognitively male cognitive bias for political decisions (scarcity of resources infinity of demands), the necessity of capitalization (saving) and CONSTRAINING population within the polity (‘that equilibrium of population vs resource, vs competitors that is calculable’).

    This is because (a) males cannot directly reproduce, and must capture territory, resources, and females from competitors, and constrain reproduction to their kin group in order to persist. This reproduction can be forcible as we see in most animals. It can be prolific and indiscriminate like we see in bonobos. It can include pairing off as we see in some species. Or it can be cooperative (calculating) as it evolved in humans (serial mating). (b) The female reproductive strategy is to capture the best genes she can while false-promising (seducing but not delivering, baiting into hazard) the maximum rents on the male population.

    This is the origin of the Abrahamic method of deceit: (a) presumption of the value of cooperation (false). (b) avoidance of physical threats of violence (fast) and reliance on undermining(slow) as a proxy for violence (informational and social threats), (c) social construction of narrative of undermining as a means of organizing competition vs military and resource pursuit against competitors as a means of organizing competition, (d) plausible deniability of undermining (slow) vs violence (fast), (e) unaccountability by submission to evidentiary violence vs inescapability from plausibly deniable false accusation to undermine. (f) the use of pervasive lying in order to control children at low cost, by the construction of mythological narratives (sophistry, mysticism, pseudoscience). (g) and perhaps the most devastating: the desire to maintain this emotional coercive ability by infantilization of and perpetuation of ignorance in the population, vs male need for adult males with objective (truthful empirical) agency in order to resist competitors.

    TESTS OF SEX DIFFERENCES IN COGNITION

    We’ve identified simple tests of female cognitive bias and absence of cognitive agency (possibility of truth):

    (a) Denial of scarcity

    (b) Denial of meritocracy

    (c) NAXALT(inability to distinguish a curve,

    (d) desirability conflated with truth,

    (e) denial of evidence

    (f) Evasion by GSRRM,

    (g) posturing false value of cooperation (sex proxy).

    Like many things, once you identify the incentives, the evolutionary necessity, and the extension of that evolutionary necessity from physics, you find that all human behavior is just the need for acquisition, means of savings, vs reproductive strategy. and reproductive strategy is just female hyperconsumption vs male hyper capitalization.

    And once you make it to that conclusion, you realize that males developed civilization in order to compete for females, but it was only possible upon the evolution of the ability to capitalize with property.

    Ergo, civilization wasn’t possible until the domestication of plants, animals, and yes, man. And the control of territory to do so. And the production of commons (capital improvements) to territories that provided discounts (returns) of compound (repeating) value.

    And here we find the crux of the political problem we face today: (a)incalculability because of digital fiat money, (b) incalculability of scale (democracy), (c) incommensurability of left and right political demands under these conditions. (d) the natural dysgenic collapse of equalitarian societies, (e) the natural eugenic evolution of meritocratic societies.

    The hunter agrarian age is past. Agrarian group strategies, traditions< norms, morals<ethics, institutions<laws, paradigms<ideas are no longer the utility that they once were.

    The agrarian age limited our evolution – froze us in time – in exchange for increasing our numbers and SLOWING what had been hyper rapid evolution over the past ten thousands of years.

    The European age that re-united the world, let us discover our races and differences, again, stopped our speciation, slowed evolution, but accelerated technological adaptation, which in turn accelerated reproduction of genetic load- reversing the evolution that only East Asians and Western Europeans had created during the agrarian age.

    Humans, like all other animals, and apparently more so given our rate of adaptation, accumulate defects (“genetic load”). We sort into classes: a hierarchy of sexual, social, economic, politicla, military value. And in most societies, we sort not by individuals but into clans by that social sexual economic, political, and military value. While through most of history about a third of females and as much as two-thirds of males failed to reproduce. And while in northern europe, under manorialism, most married much later, producing fewer offspring, and twenty percent or more failed to reproduce, the rest of the world continued reproduction at the bottom with warmer climates providing higher disease gradients but higher rates of reproductive survival at the bottom, and colder climates the opposite.

    At present, after half a millennia of european conceptual, scientific, technological, economic, and political innovation, and after almost two centuries of the industrial revolution, we have equilibrated geographic and developmental differences. And we are wealthy enough for having done so to desire to, and demand, to fulfill our political preferences at the scale of states that we had fulfilled under villages and city-states.

    We ended the eugenics program postwar, that was aboriginal a liberal program, even though the Germans – no matter how politically incorrect it is to say – were right. We ended limiting immigration to equally genetically pacified (evolved) peoples. And we have allowed anti-evolutionary religions of Judaism and Islam in particular into Europe despite Islam’s long-standing attempt to destroy European civilization, and Judaism’s continuous hostility to it. Because both of these religions are evolutionary for the masses which is why Judaism is the origin of Marxism, postmodernism, and HBD-denialism. (Socialism in the continental tradition rather than the Marxist is just a continuation of the policies of the Catholic Church – which again, was a devolutionary submissive religion only escaped by Protestantism and the eugenic consequences of Northern European manorialism.

    There is only one solution: the solution the Europeans have practiced throughout our history: the restoration of political competition between states, each of which satisfies slightly different needs for the more eugenically evolved (northern Europe, less eugenically evolved, eastern Europe, and less eugenically evolved neolithic Europe of the south. And far less evolved rest of the world other than Han, Korean, and Japanese east who alone, like northern Europe, spent the past millennia in eugenic evolution. While the rest of the world expanded dysgenia.

    So we can die off and fall to south American, Indian, middle eastern, or African dysgenia, ignorance, incompetence, and poverty, or we can separate as we have throughout our european history into a thousand nations, and let peoples make their own choices and pay the cost of their choices, and let evidence accomplish what opinion and argument cannot.

    # UPDATE ON TECH

    Spending a week on tech. Why? The market has caught up to Oversing and Runcible. So instead of being a hard sell in advance of the market, it’s an easy sell into a market of present demand. The gig economy has gone global and the economic benefits of decentralization of the white-collar workforce were accelerated by COVID.

    Tech is pretty much there. And within a few years, using Dart, Flutter, Web assembly, Node, Redis, MySql, and Elastic Search the tech will make it possible to complete the transition. With React(Vue)/Redux(Vuex)/Electron on the front it’s possible to do now – and without exhaustive work duplicate desktop, laptop, tablet, and mobile.

    ## Oversing(interface) and Runcible(backend)

    ### OVERSING ARCHITECTURE

    In the most abstract terms, oversing is a game engine for life. And a game engine whose objective is *to make you continually better*.

    Oversing presents the user with a landscape (horizontal) row of columns(panels). Each column(panel) functions as an app AND a filter. The apps are what you’d expect: A Menu, Communities (organizations), People, Channels, Chats, Email, Notifications, Activity Stream(Feed), Action Items(Workflow Assignments, or your responsibility ‘inbox’), Marketplace(Work Offers), Talent (Seeking Work), Deals (Contracts, assignments), To Do Section(Tasks), To-Do Detail(Task Detail), Content(can be anything), Calendar (schedule), Staffing(Resources, Conference Rooms, locations, etc) and Reports. The content section presents a document view whether a paragraph, section, chapter, or a random selection of them. In addition, plugins allow for the insertion of additional columns for content creation (graphics, documents, spreadsheets, etc).

    By double-clicking on any element you can open a detail view of it (by default a side panel). You can drag any element to any other to create a connection between them. And in most cases clicking on (selecting), an element will filter the rest of the board (whatever is to the right) by whatever you’ve selected.

    So, you can compose a workspace by opening or closing panels, and reorganizing them, selecting what’s in them, then saving the composition. In this way we create almost all possible business applications, for every role and every degree of sophistication, using a single interface, and that interface IS the desktop (shell).

    The “To Do” section consists of a familiar set of panels: a view of tasks, whether simple paper list, sortable list, table, tree, simple agile (Trello), complex agile boards(Jira), schedule bars (simple), or full wbs(Project).

    Around that to-do section are columns that filter it: Org Tree, Program, Project, Team(people), verb(function), noun(component), catalog(packages, items, parts), Priority, Estimate, Task Type, and others.

    Everything in the system is a task (we call it that for ease of reference, but it’s just a generic object we call an ‘entity’). At present, there are over 140 different types of ‘task’. they range from what you’d expect (task), to parts, to what you might not (document section, or index card).

    Every type of task has a default (necessary) workflow. Users (power users) can extend (inherit) these default workflows and modify them to match their workflows (business processes). The workflow designer is very, very, intuitive.

    Workflows can debit (take) and credit (give) rewards to wallets(buckets). Workflows can create, read, modify, and delete ‘variables’. Workflows can execute scripts (mini-programs). Workflows can perform Accounting (financial) transactions. Accounting transactions feed the accounting system for your ‘organization’ or ‘community’. Workflows can change the UI state, display content(think sales automation). We even experimented with a graphical content presentation (object renderer with bounding box events) so that you COULD create a game in the application. But we thought it might hurt marketability.

    So whether you’re a hobbyist, an individual gig-worker, or a biz that uses a distributed team, or a member of a vast international bureaucracy, or anything in between, you need a browser, and Oversing and NO OTHER SOFTWARE AT ALL.

    It even handles just in time, multiple currencies and current exchange rates for international companies.

    And for power users we have a console where you type commands and bypass the user interface.

    And none of this requires a programmer. If you want to use the accounting functionality you set up a chart of accounts, make workflows that you want, and automate a great deal of your accounting.

    (The weakest parts are invoices, billing, and reciepts, and some of the reporting, because we worked on them last and in a hurry.)

    RUNCIBLE

    For those who have read Stephenson’s Diamond Age, Runcible is the code name for a book (supercomputer) that provides custom education for the reader.

    The byproduct of Oversing and it’s more interesting value proposition is in its collection of data. About you, your organization, and people like you in other organizations = social, business, political, and military. But unlike social (advertising) platforms that seek to manipulate you, and to assist others in manipulating you, Runcible seeks to assist you. To educate you. So your personal profile, which is organization independent, and your personal property, tells you very interesting things about how you compare to similar (and dissimilar) people around the world.

    There are tasks (sets of objects) for HR (recruiting, reviews) and management (goals), and self improvement. There are strategic tasks for managing an organization of any scale.

    If you are crazy enough, you can turn on all programs (divisions, departments or initiatives) and projects etc, turn on the agile board view, and minmize the card sizes, and you’ll see the entirety of your organization change state by color changes, additions, and dissapearance, of little blinking dots. It’s like being in command of a starship. It’s insane – in a good way.

    This kind of product creates extraordinary transparency for owners, execs, manaement, staff, contractor, vendor and even customer.

    By charging for commercial features, we gain independence from advertising and the consequences of advertising. And if we chose to do advertising it would be by ‘catalogs’ (streams) curated for different audiences, with commissions going to the curators. And the application would be free of interruption (distraction) advertising.

    I’ve only touched on five percent of what oversing and runcible can do.

    So it’s an operating system that obviates the operating system as other than a host for a browser, which is increasingly the user interface replacing the shell. All that remains is that final step where the browser has access to the operating system services (think Electron) so that the failure of operating system manufacturers (microsoft, apple) to solve the user interface (shell) problem (make the next layer) is overcome by the browser. At which point the linux guys are going to say ‘told you so’.

    FYI: INSTITUTE AND RELATED: So, fixed one bug late last night. Picking through the code (I’m guessing was written in east Asia somewhere), it looks like once someone has taken a quiz you can’t modify it without screwing up the navigation. Its sort of a ‘version’. So to modify it, you create a new quiz and just re-use the questions you want. This is what’s causing the navigation problem when taking the quiz. Does it matter? in reality there will never be any quizzes, only assignments. The only reason we use the quiz functionality is to make a record of agreement with terms and conditions.

    I’ve looked at all the competing software and it’s almost all geared to either quiz-based (making money for authors), or full-featured for teachers (Blackboard, Canvas, etc) The reason for our limited choices is fear of being de-platformed. So we need to own the software, data, and hosting. The only alternative is Moodle which requires a rewrite of our site and I don’t have time for that.

    None of which matters much unless I can get my current work done ( which I won’t go into here – it’s more foundation work on the origin of western thought on one hand (interesting), a few pieces on the economics of whiteness (for general use), completing the piece on Abrahamism vs Europeanism, and completing the piece on The Course and Conduct of a Civil War.

    Not sure how much work I’m going to put into the constitutional reforms (second declaration) vs the dummies version and the courseware. I’m more motivated to pursue the intellectual than the political at the moment and my motivation drives the focus of the work.

    I spent about a week on tech which I’ll answer in the next post.
