    sprawling 2.5 aches, he’s joking right?

    make it 250 & I’ll still need to think about it, some of us still remember what happened to the Volga Germans.

    As far as I can tell, Bin Laden was successful in forcing the USA to invade, unifying his people against the west, and causing multiple revolutions against the status quo (weak fragmented states), in order to restore the islamic empire.

    That this will likely result in a combination of Iranian/northern and Arabian/southern core states (at least), and result in the invasion of the west by islam (despite our resistance for 1500 years) would likely thrill him as greater success than he’d intended.

    I can’t actually understand why you think a legacy of violence is somehow a ‘bad’ when that is islam’s central legacy, and something that they are as proud of as are the Russians and the Mongolians and the Chinese.

    Bin Laden won. The strategy worked. His work will be studied for centuries. God knows I study it.

  • How Do You Price Normative Decline?

    HOW DO YOU PRICE NORMATIVE DECLINE? [H]elpful conversation about Ukrainian people with my friend Марта Госовська yesterday. She was able to help me understand how Russian rule turned the Ukrainian people immoral, and how far they must come before they can change. Because now, like Russia, people are taught how to take advantage not how to produce. Why they cannot organize in large numbers. Why their courts do not work. Why their politicians, bureaucrats, professors, teachers and police are corrupt. This is an example of the problem of pricing norms. What is the cost of Russian (Soviet) rule of eastern Europe? What is the cost of the marxist program? What is the cost of the 1964 immigration program? These costs are real. And not including them is practicing deceit by not fully accounting for costs. What it the cost of normative decline to the white underclass?

    Interesting thing to advocate. As far as I know he’s reflecting common frustration w/ status quo. Would diff. vote do the same?

    @weeklystandard Trump is just the embodiment of our (militant) desire to radically change the status quo. He’s a consequence, not cause.

  • I saved Ascentium in the crisis with a Hail Mary play that should be the subject

    I saved Ascentium in the crisis with a Hail Mary play that should be the subject of grad school discussions. Amid cancer and divorce.

    But afterward, then the investors pulled out the cash and set us back to zero so that the company was broke again, betraying my agreements with Microsoft and the acquired party. It was then that I realized their intention had been to take control by forcing it under.

    I quit and worked a severance package that was in my favor.

    What is the rumor the gossips started? ( I know who they were) That I took the money myself somehow. ( emphasis on somehow ). I wish it was true. But you know, audited financial statements and tax returns put those kind of idiotic fantasies in the same camp as all other gossip.

    Now I always look at it from this perspective. Do you really think if I wanted to fuck people over, they would even know it? Seriously.

    Ask Sidney Golub. Ask Elliot Koenig. Ask Wayne Seminoff. I participated in ruining these people. Golub via the fbi/treasury. Koenig through a racketeering suit. Seminoff via the IRS. In fact. I was building a career out of infiltrating and reporting scumbags. And if I had been married to a less moral woman I would have continued that tradition of using tech to catch scumbags. It was fulfilling. It want economically rewarding. But it was fulfilling.

    So I returned to entrepreneurship. We did excel data. I did red-tech. I did DDI, then c-hub, then Ascentium.

    We operate on different wavelengths given our different levels of experience. But one has to remember that mastery of some niche is not transferrable to the broader sphere. Hence why it’s is always best to work with people with similar levels of experience. Hence why one should always assume one is naive and ignorant rather wise and cunning.
