Curt Doolittle

  • Testimony (awesome)

    Mar 4, 2020, 3:01 PM (ok. so this made my day)

    —“There is such a great benefit to mastering even a small aspect of P in personal life. I am still trying to figure a lot of it out, but whatever I do has served me a lot personally far more than my useless university education that was the biggest waste of money. I am glad I went to trade school after. What Curt Doolittle is teaching is why originally people were hoping to get paying $60,000+ in student loans to what has devolved into baiting into hazard into debt slavery for a marxist indoctrination center that rewards a useless piece of paper. I am really grateful to this.”— Maria Al Masani Makienko

    The problem is that it’s hard to know the value of P until you know it. So we need enough people to ‘verify’ P’s utility so that we stop people from having to pay 60K in debt for what should be a thousand dollars or so in basic courses. If we do that we change the world.

  • The Manufacture of Ignorance

    Mar 4, 2020, 4:05 PM by Andrew M Gilmour Categorically speaking, logic, numbers and geometry are universal abstracts. It’s not a new insight. They just stopped teaching it nearly a hundred years ago. Or rather, i’ve never found a good book on it after the 1920s. Building a paradigm around geometry (spatial perception) enforces realism and empiricism. “Knowing” must come from the objective world. The subjective is only preference (desired).

  • Learning P Is Like Going Back to School

    —“First competence: consume P accurately.”—Luke Weinhagen

    Still working on step one. It’s like going back to school… okay, not LIKE it, it IS going back to school – and learning a new subject. I’m reading English, but it feels like a foreign language – having to re-read and look up terms, check context. I haven’t had to really use my brain this much in years 😅 But thanks for everyone who puts it all out and breaks it down for the rest of us.

  • Q: The propertarian view on lending with interest?

    Mar 5, 2020, 1:25 PM

    —“What would be the propertarian view on lending with interest? Or investment banking?”—

    Interest is necessary for temporal calculation of production, distribution and trade, but not for consumption. All end point interest, meaning consumer credit on capital purchases (durable goods) under fiat money(a fractional share in the economy) is rent seeking (prohibited). Houses, boats, cars, appliances, furniture, clothing etc – anything not entertainment is rent seeking. If we exchange zero interest for accelerated payments we dont disrupt the pricing system (rapidly) but we do rapidly make children affordable. Similarly there appears to be little value in private insurance against catastrophe. Anything that can be calculated with that degree of statistical precision, yet it subject to the creation of rent seeking and hazard in the business side, can be done without the business side as a non-profit treasury run piece of infrastructure.

  • The meaning of Civilized

    Mar 5, 2020, 5:19 PM CIVILIZED LIKE VELOCITY IS A THRESHOLD AND SPECTRUM NOT A STATE

    —“Curt, how do we consider the Chinese a civilized nation when they do not engage in reciprocity with anyone, and they hack the whole world with false promises and sh—y, toxic goods?”— Ahmed Reda

    Civilized means ‘urbanized’, meaning ‘markets’, with ‘market ethics’, which we think of as middle class or ‘civilized’ ethics, combined with producing high culture (arts) as monuments (achievements), the ultimate luxury. Chinese civilization has been ‘advanced’ in the sense of (a) urbanized, and (b) producing high culture, since the ancient world. However, Chinese culture has never valued human life as we do in all of its history and the communists made it far worse. A quick perusal of the history of chinese art compared to european will illustrate the self loathing of the chinese toward human beings. A quick read of how many of their own people they have killed in modern, medieval, and ancient worlds, tells the rest. They are a low trust society still trying to emerge out of endemic poverty. We think they are an old people and they claim to be but they are not. The communists did to china what the (((current leftists))) are trying to do to ours, so the chinese lost all their high culture and traditions and ethics and suffered through the communist experience. Their priority in value is harmony over human life. Why this is the case is rather obvious if you understand their history.
