    https://t.co/lwmYuHqc84I’m going to posit a very different revolution, that is far more important. Lets look at a set of revolutionary inventions:

    Cooperative Revolution

    Tool Use Revolution

    Language Revolution (??)

    Oral History Revolution

    Metalwork revolution

    Reading, Writing and Arithmetic (first computational revolution)

    Greek Rationalism (Aristotelianism and stoicism)

    Christian Mysticism ( a regression if there ever was one )

    The Printing Press (close analogy to the computational revolution)

    Italian Accounting : complex production distribution and trade.

    Anglo-Italian Empiricism : industrialization

    German and Anglo Mathematics

    American Legal Revolution (attempt at making natural law internally consistent)

    Darwinian Revolution. (transition from moral justificationism – justification of an argument, to scientific criticism – survival of ideas from criticism)

    Scientific Revolution (exiting human scale, and the socialization of research)

    Computer Storage and Computation Revolution. (exiting human operational capacity)

    What I am working on, and what I hope is the next great revolution, is to provide a reformation to counter the Pseudoscientific Era (Boaz, Marx, Freud, Cantor, Mises) imposed by Academia, the same way that the British (English and Scottish enlightenments) provided a reformation against the era of mysticism (Justinian and Augustinian imposed Christianity).

    We know now that the Flynn effect is caused largely by the incremental conversion of human thinking from a multitude of case specific rules of utility (think recipes) to a limited number of general rules describing the behavior of similar systems (think theories). Depending upon who you ask, this education in scientific thinking appears to have created a 20 point increase (more than one standard deviation) in demonstrated human intelligence.

    Likewise, the application of scientific thought to the social sciences in order to overcome the equivalent of the second christianization of European civilization – this time with pseudoscience instead of mysticism – will very likely produce an equal if not greater affect on our economies, our polities, and our demonstrated intelligence.

    And like the conversion from mysticism to physical sciences, the conversion of pseudoscience to social science, will be just as difficult and costly and require an equally challenging and costly effort.

    We have only half-escaped our primitive mysticism. The next revolutionary science is not robotics. It’s social science: morality: natural laws of cooperation. With which any advancement in machine intelligence is governable, and without which it is a risk.

    THE WARRANTIES OF TRUTHFUL TESTIMONY

    If you cannot warranty that your testimony survives these tests then you cannot claim you speak truthfully.

    Identity (property consistency)

    Internal Consistency (logical consistency)

    External Correspondence (empirical consistency)

    Existential Possibility (operational definitions)

    Parsimony (identified limits – what we refer to as falsification)

    Full Accounting (full accounting of all costs including opportunity costs)

    Demonstrable Morality (consisting of fully-informed, productive, warrantied, voluntary transfer, free of imposition of costs by externality.)

    WHY SO MUCH TIME AND EFFORT ON ANTI-RACISM? SELF CORRECTION.

    ALL,

    My job is to come up with a solution. You either help me do that or you don’t. Bitching about other races and groups with competing strategies is just masturbation.

    I love my race and my kin and my culture because all men must love their tribe for it to persist in the great climb to godhood.

    But I see a world of aristocracies: of small nation states – extended tribes – trying to raise their gene pools – their kin – into godhood. This is my vision of the world.

    I am against multi-culturalism as a form of polylogism – the logically impossible, legally undecidable, and the means by which we increase demand for authority. It is counter rational, It is pseudoscientific. It is a lie. Plain and simple. There is a limited value to cultural assimilation of invention, and cultural assimilation of the best most aristocratic genes. Everything else is pollution of the genetic, normative, and material economies. It’s not subjective opinion but fact.

    So sorry if I am not a racist in the sense that I hate others. I merely seek an institutional solution whereupon on group CANNOT PREY UPON another, and must survive by merit only. I am not even so much of a separatist as requiring full assimilation in exchange for benefitting from a superior commons.

    It doesn’t help me or us if you whine about others. It helps if you get up and demonstrate, or punish, or even kill those who allow others to conquer us. But it does nothing to criticize others for wanting a better life at our expense.

    The state is a for profit self-serving enterprise at the expense of the families it preys upon. It is time to kill a lot of people. Those in the Academy, State, Media complex.

    Thank goodness rope is cheap, and guillotines are efficient.

    1) Sum of Our Differences: Normative Commons are constructed of continuous payments of forgone opportunities to take discounts

    2) Sum of Our Differences: Normative Commons are constructed of continuous payments of forgone opportunities to take discounts.

    This is one of the opposition’s techniques: offering discounts in order to escape payments for the commons. In other words, they preach cheating.

  • A Speech: The Aristocratic Ethics of Debate

    [T]he Aristocratic Ethics of Debate: “The only reason not to kill you is that it is more beneficial or may be more beneficial to cooperate in the pursuit of truth, than take your property and your women, enslave you, or kill you. “In order to discover the truth, so that we may both benefit from it, I agree to forgo the use of my violence, so that you may debate me objectively and truthfully. “I warranty I shall debate only objectively and truthfully. In exchange I demand that you also warranty that you will conduct only a debate objectively, and truthfully. “And should you engage in deceit, or attempt to shame me, or rally opinion against me, then you violate that warranty, and I no longer shall bind my weapons, but kill you for your dishonesty, and your attempt to hide the truth from me and all men. “So take heed how you inform our person. How you awake our sleeping sword of war. For what follows is bloody constraint. And I warranty I shall kill you or die in the process of trying”* This is aristocracy. This is paternalism. This is excellence. This is honor. This is godliness. Curt Doolittle The Philosophy of Aristocracy The Propertarian Institute Kiev, Ukraine (*Liberties taken with the Bard.)
