  • What Are Some Unnamed Foreign Intelligence Agency? How Would A Tech Company In The United States Arrange A Meeting With Them? Why?

    It doesn’t work like that. You don’t contact intelligence agencies per se. That’s the most certain means of being ignored. (Darpa is an exception.) You write technical papers. You submit articles to think tanks. You show up at intelligence related conferences and military trade shows. You hire a small PR firm to spread the information around. But you establish relationships.

    Remember that there are people posing as you for counter intelligence or intelligence purposes, and lunatics of every stripe – it is hard to identify an opportunity that isn’t a land mine.

    “To catch a mouse, make a noise like cheese.”

    • Talk about what you do.
    • Talk about the benefit to those organizations.
    • Make it easy to be found.

    The international community largely works through Think Tank networks at the higher end, and academic networks at the lower end.

    Think tanks generally have access. They provide brokering services for both sides. And they do that because they are the most informed parties on both sides.

    Some think tanks are also government fronts. (I won’t name names.)

    (I have, in the past, offered to pay for ‘research’ on the viability of x in y government. It’s actually incredibly cheap. My favorite quote: “You can hire our entire team for a summer for pocket change”. Conversely You wouldn’t believe some of the things i have been asked to do. )

    (fwiw – This is how the Russians are so effective for so little money)

If we tolerate lies, and liars, eventually we will be ruled by the best liars telling the biggest lies. (And the best liars are ((())), 0-+, and <-0-+ . And the French – but I repeat myself.)

    (I use very similar reasoning albeit from economics and demographics. but this post is very accessible and includes explanatory graphics.)

  • “It sounds to me like reduction-ism.”— (a friend) Well that’s not a criticism,

    —“It sounds to me like reduction-ism.”— (a friend) Well that’s not a criticism, since the entire universe operates on a (scarily) small set extremely simple rules (forces) that produce all of existence. All human behavior, likewise, is quite simple. It’s the vast set of justifications and deceits that we use to preserve our negotiating position that are complicated. I mean, there are what? 1000-1500 ideas in toto? There are how many narrative structures? twelve to thirty? There are how many group evolutionary strategies? Maybe six? In technology we call them ‘design patterns’ or ‘patterns’, but in science we call them physics, chemistry, biology, sentience. So in my narrative, which is the causal narrative all scientists seek, It’s called historicization – the science of history. And while in the past we used justificationary (reported) history (what people write) we have instead transformed to analysis by incentives (demonstrated actions) using economics, political economy (institutions), justificationary mythos (what people write), and Comparative civilizations (group evolutionary strategies). But there is a long lag – because the justificationism cannot imagine that all authors ever do is create moral license to pursue an opportunity that already exists.

  • What Would An Economy Be Like If Everyone Saved 80% Of Their Income?

    We would rapidly starve. Research “monetary velocity”.
    Wealth is created (meaning prices are continuously reduced) by the velocity of trade.
    So failing to understand this is an example of the fixed pie fallacy.

    If we were all made equal tomorrow, we would starve in ninety days.
