Stop Spending on Ukraine

Russians lost about 6 million dead in WW 2; the most of the Soviet Union’s ethnic groups. As one with a balanced history background that included college courses in Russian history and the usual Western Civilization I understand and support the facts about US and global interests, unlike the Democrat Party leadership.

As an historical opinion I support Russia’s right to the Crimea and know that sharing Ukraine with Russia at 50% is the only rational policy. Pursuing false narratives promulgated since the Clinton carpet bagging land stolen berg days has harmed US global interests, credibility (people think it an opportunistic predator with a supportive propaganda media), effected a million casualties, made enemies of two WW2 allies and normalized nuclear brinkmanship. It’s also expensive with about a quarter trillion dumped to Ukraine.

The Soviet Union had an 800 mile front from the Black Sea and extended through Ukraine. Many Ukrainians were on the Nazi side killing Russians defending their homeland.

Russia was moving toward free enterprise and helped in the war against terrorism while Europe expanded NATO. Because of western greed we made an enemy of Russia and divided the world Economy between the BRIC nations and the west.

The world does not need to be politically divided in a second Cold War. A peaceful world with free trade, free enterprise and a transition to sustainable ecological economic policy cannot occur with a senseless war ongoing leading toward a stone age economy.

Those who forget the past are doomed to rest it was proven again true by the Democrats bungling of the end of the Cold war. Communism ended in the Soviet Union starting with a quarter million Soviet troops withdrawing from East Germany in Dec 1988. When communism ended peacefully it was difficult to avoid chaos. There was no government or people elected to the new governments. Yeltsin wrote a constitution for Russia.

There was no method to redistribute land that was public owned in the Soviet era into private ownership that was tested. Even as late as the mid 90s there were no income taxes on oligarchs and corporations.  Some way had to arise to keep Russia together and remove power from the Mafia and oligharchs. Putin had to find a way to set the power criteria of regional governments and rebuild the military based on the US volunteer force. It was a complex difficult period with free enterprise growing in Russia. American businesses were invested there. Then NATO expanded Eastward eyeballing Russia as it had since Napoleon and Poland had since 1500.

The Russian Presidency was given superpowers by the constitution. He needed it to keep the home made experiment in democracy together  I took a Coursera course online about Russian government from Petersburg University and researched online about Russian history since the end of the Cold War. It was a democracy. 

The maladroit Democrat Party choices to be runt-like political midgets living within the Cold War era paradigm with an enemy to the East was political recidivism and follow. Leadership was required rather than fear, paranoia and cowardice that required an expanded NATO, increases military expense and that couldn't understand or lead to what was needed to continue the Reagan-Gorbachev normalization of relations east and west.

   Russia has not sought conflict with the west besides restoration of it's sovereign lands in Ukraine. When Ukraine is shared those that would live in the non Russian areas should be free to move to West Ukraine and vice versa.

 Understanding politics with competence involves understanding what motivates leaders on select issues, and how and why they form policies. Civilizations end because of bad leadership sometimes, such as that which occurred in imperial Rome following the Antonines. 

 Democrat leadership after Reagan, and even that of George W Bush has made a series of bad decisions. My concern is for justice internationally of course, yet primarily is for America alienating half of the world from trade and trust, increasing public debt and becoming incapable of supporting a peaceful and productive global political economy.

Replying to 'Why are White People Great at Everything?'

Shouldn't one start with a rectification of names? Confucius did; so; therefore ask what are white people and what is the everything they are supposed to be great at. I shall stipulate that the timing of the OP is importunate. Trying to use greatness with white people as a middle term for racism is harmful to Trump politics. The appearance of racism simply impedes good political works Trump might be able to do. Those policies are primarily not racist.

Modern economies have specialized occupational roles. No one is good at everything. Commercial aircraft pilots usually aren’t great dentists for example. Some people are good at a few occupations though usually not at one time. For those that aren’t white and are envious it may be the ownership of material goods and the things associated with homes, autos and devices that seem to be what the white people are ‘great’ at. Keep in mind that the IQ of the average white American is only about 100, so it doesn’t take rocket science to own average things in the USA; in fact it’s better to be average than to be great at something like philosophy or poetry with a higher IQ if one is seeking material satisfaction in life.

Black Americans have a lower average IQ than white and that isn’t surprising considering their history of intellectual repression and exclusion until modern times. A culture of social exclusion is hard on individuals concerned generally with simple survival in a hostile social environment. That exclusion long-term lowers IQ. Even a bad diet can lower performance on IQ tests. It is difficult to build a culture up intellectually. That tends to occur yet it is a long term advance.

Black Americans have a higher IQ than some sub-Saharan Africans. The life expectancy of some of that group is far less than much of the world’s. Poverty tends to lower IQ scores because diet and environment don’t support brain health. Most blacks haven’t had the positive early childhood environment supporting intellectual development that many white people have had.

Structures that were started by a particular race and culture should have at least a few individuals that excel in a given structure. Other cultures require time to catch up. Differences in achievement at given tasks among various cultures tend to be culturally rather than racially caused. Differences among individuals are more toward a combined genetic and cultural causality.Structures that were started by a particular race and culture should have at least a few individuals that excel in a given structure.

China had fantastic inventiveness thousands of years ago. It’s development was retarded by imperialism until the 20th century. Capitalism allows better quantitative opportunities for invention with the profit motive. Now that China has a mixed economy. It performs better than it did with a state dominated form of socialism.

One need find the difficulty of a task as an occupation and determine what sort of IQ is needed to perform a task and if it falls within the basic bell curve distribution of a race. Actually cold weather drove some invention while others inventions like metallurgy invented in the Middle East travelled north.

One can consider cultural advantages and tool kits at any point in history and find that some lead others for a time then even disappear. What of the glory of ancient Rome or the strong walls of Constantinople?

Because Europe was challenged by invasions for thousands of years technology advanced there quicker than in places less challenged.

Toynbee pointed out that easy living regions of Greece did not advance as fast as some places that were given more, yet not too great of challenges. China is advancing very rapidly. Economists have found that mature economies stabilize at a growth rate of perhaps 2 or 3% while developing economics have a much faster growth rate until they equalize with the nations with mature economies.

There is additionally the criterion of values. Were the values of Diogenes the Cynic more like those of Bill Gates or Lao Tzu. Cultural values can be followed by minions until the over participation destroys the health of an environment. Hundreds of millions may surge over the edge like lemmings with great skill; is that really a value to be admired?

I would really hate to live in a jungle in a primitive condition being ate by mosquitoes. Overcoming some of those challenges required biology at a level barely reached today- not a thousand years ago.

Europe had fewer tropical diseases than more southerly regions and that matters even now What sort of fire ant problem exists for campers in Europe in comparison to South Florida?

Africa is advancing almost too quickly now. Nigeria alone has, I believe, 85,000 PHds. There are modern looking cities all over the continent and the ecosphere is in decay and receives toxic waste from Europe.

There is only a human race now and individuals differ more in ability than traditional races.

The Lock Nut of Concentrated Wealth in Capitalism

 Capitalism is a way that includes most people in America. A cash economy that has a price on everything. Poverty is the most grave social sin. Even the middle class and illegal immigrants may be derisive of poor Americans. It is inefficient in many ways, and wealth is assuredly over-concentrated in the U.S.A. to such an extent that Americans are on parity with Mexico now. People have written about the inability of the Earth to sustain so many people at the present levels of consumption for more than a half century, yet there is little ability politically for people to change the way things are. Ecological economics for sustainability would require smarter politicians than the U.S.A. elects. Capitalism is a self-tightening lock nut concentrating wealth because capital grows faster than wages.

Creating some kind of basic income so no one is mired for decades in poverty would be helpful in a compassionate conservatism sort of way yet ideologues are against that seeing it as communism or socialism. When wealth is overly concentrated stagnation sets in to an economy as fewer than 1% own the majority of everything in the corporate world. People are promoted as they are of value keeping the 1% wealth structure intact. Individuals like Jobs, Gates, Buffet and Musk were/are symbols of capitalism with good P.R. value. 

Entertainment people in the 1% of 1% comprise 5% of that group. They usually support the system with good P.R. value keeping the public from being politically restive or increasing taxes on the rich. Capital increases faster than wage labor so concentrated wealth is a self-tightening lock nut; one gets some sort of plutocracy running things.The media becomes controlled by the 1% and the public become bound to paying off public debt owned by the 1% and global elites who pay fewer taxes. Yet that situation reflects human nature, the bad side, where public commons go neglected and social insecurity compels greed in micro-economics lest one starve or freeze in the winter. Humans presently can’t really do much better.

It is possible that in the future some kind of technical progress will assure that everyone has a fairly comfortable experience of being alive on Earth and that resources from the other planets of the solar system will provide enough for people on Earth after having achieved a stable and sustainable population level globally. Maybe the planet will have some kind of basic income for all and capitalism will be limited at the high end in order to prevent overly concentrated wealth as a percent of national income and social capital.

The Biden-Harris administration and others never use the word poverty these days except as it applies to foreign countries. Spending a half trillion on the Ukraine war instead of developing water resources and sustainable agriculture in Africa was unthinkable yet that happened. Such changes over-all are decisive in the long run. One need invest wisely in peace, education and ecological sustainability instead of conflict yet even that simple prioritization is nearly impossible to achieve in U.S. politics.

A practical step to make earnings opportunities more egalitarian and to accelerate the pace of economic invention and progress would be to reform the patent system to limit the period of exclusive patent ownership to three years with 5% of sales royalties going to the patent holder from users of an invention after it goes public domain (in three years). Because the pharmaceutical industry requires so much time and capital investment to develop new drugs they might be treated somewhat differently and given exclusivity for 7 years after which 5% sales royalties would go to the patent holder as the drug reaches the public domain. There are a lot of inventors that cannot afford to participate in the patent process unable to gamble several thousand dollars on an idea. Thus ideas tend to trickle upward to concentrated wealth and that is bad for society especially in an era where ecosystem and species decline in quality and quantity are facts of life.

Scripture and Writing Misc History

 Deuteronomy 32:8-9 is “When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance,

when he divided all mankind,

he set up boundaries for the peoples

according to the number of the sons of Israel.[a]

9 For the Lord’s portion is his people,

Jacob his allotted inheritance”. That could be a reference to Jesus for Jacob was renamed Israel.

There is speculation that Avrm may have understood cuneiform as a scribe in Babylon. Moses knew hieroglyphics . Between the two there is a prospect that written material was carried forward.

I believe that Moses may have invented the aleph beth for he was well educated and had the time to do so. Oral histories were a parallel data mode merging eventually with writing. Scripture material as prophesied was gathered by King David into the Pentateuch. The J writer history is interesting. At some point during Solomon or Rehoboam’s court the material was collated.

It’s worth noting the destruction of Jerusalem as a religious center by the Babylonians during the Prophet Jeremiah’s day. Certainly Israelites were not always on the same page of devotion to God as one sees when the golden calf was poured in the wilderness. The Old Testament has so many warnings to Israel about being reprobate it need not be commented on.

Degrees of Infinity and Unbelief

 It is comparable to flat Earthers I guess. People can’t believe that some infinities are greater than others. They dismiss the idea and say there is only one kind of infinity and that people worshiping math can’t see the wood for the pulp. One might rely to such incredulously…

People are worshiping math? That’s a startling development. Might have developed from those cardinal numbers and sets with some being greater than others. Cantor’s theorem undermined the Pope of a Largest Cardinal number. Here is the heretical theorem; “The cardinality of a set’s power set is strictly greater than the cardinality of the set itself”. That means there are an infinite number of degrees of infinity. The smallest infinity is subversive and known as Aleph-null.

There are infinities besides mathematical degrees of infinity such as physical and metaphysical. The metaphysical infinities cultists don’t worship degrees of mathematical infinities unless they have no choice. Instead they surge religiously into physicalism and prostrate themselves toward tax cuts.

Georg Cantor showed that some infinities are bigger than others. It’s a fascinating matter to consider -useful for contemplating cosmology in addition to Godel’s incompleteness theorems. https://www.transfinite.com/content/transfinitenumbers

Georg Cantor was brilliant and infinities were a topic mathematicians were recalcitrant about facing. He was oppressed by regular academia, although his work is accepted now. Wikipedia notes that he was “a mathematician who played a pivotal role in the creation of set theory, which has become a fundamental theory in mathematics. Cantor established the importance of one-to-one correspondence between the members of two sets, defined infinite and well-ordered sets, and proved that the real numbers are more numerous than the natural numbers. Cantor’s method of proof of this theorem implies the existence of an infinity of infinities. He defined the cardinal and ordinal numbers and their arithmetic. Cantor’s work is of great philosophical interest, a fact he was well aware of.[2]”

https://www.transfinite.com/content/transfinitenumbersI suppose that infinities in extra dimensional spaces are greater than those with fewer dimensions. Cantor’s theorem would still be valid. Pythagoreans would need to add a metaphysical liturgy to the mysteries.

I suppose that infinities in extra dimensional spaces are greater than those with fewer dimensions. Cantor’s theorem would still be valid. Pythagoreans would need to add a metaphysical liturgy to the mysteries.

As a practical matter and with math there are different places and kinds of infinity. One may of course refer to the greatest infinity holding all others- one containing the yo yo universe and all others theoretically even though God may not sponsor such a place because he is spirit and also can’t be defined in terms of distance or scale.

One might want to know if there is a finite or infinite number of regular polygons for making three-dimensional puzzles or for manufacturing containers.

https://youtu.be/ciM6wigZK0w?feature=shared

An equilateral triangle, square and the regular hexagon can fill a plain with no gaps, an infinite one, yet nothing else can. Infinity is an attribute that may be applied to some sets with real applicability. In exploring the shape of a structure or universe calculations for geometry and quantity may involve infinities of scale.

The Universe may have an open, closed or flat shape gravitationally speaking. If it is flat, the most popular model, it extends into infinity perhaps because there isn’t enough gravity to collapse it to a big crunch nor too little such that it would fly apart in expansion. Why could it be balanced just right if it is expanding from a singularity? One might think that  to be perfectly flat the universe should always have existed infinitely: and that is counter-intuitive to observations of a thermodynamic universe and general relativity.

There is a difference between physical and mathematical infinity. If quanta were infinitely divisible that would create issues. Maybe fields are infinitely divisible yet if so the field overall should lose strength as it subdivides. The system may conserve energy yet monism becoming pluralism may have a cost.

https://www.britannica.com/science/infinity-mathematics/Physical-infinities

https://www.astronomy.com/science/what-shape-is-the-universe/

Theological issues concerning infinity differ quite a bit from space-time concerns about infinity. They are different reference frames. Space-time of this observable universe according to the prevailing theory had a start at time=0. So if it is infinite is that way in one direction like a vector that has not yet achieved infinity. It is just 13.2 light years old and 93 billion light years in diameter. Space-time isn’t empty it is a field that expanded from T=0 in the current model. People have wondered about a theoretical empty volume containing matter at least since Heraclitus and Parmenides.

I think Giordano Bruno was burned as much for real politics as theology. The Inquisition was in full force in reaction to the half millennium war against Muslim invaders of Europe. The ruling powers were Christian and wanted any 5th column Muslims to swear allegiance to European values. Spain was only retaken in 1492, and Muslims attacked Vienna in 1529 and 1683. The Muslims m heresy problem and even the Orthodox Christian schism remained challenges to Habsburg authorities. If Europe was placid I doubt that Bruno would have burned. Science is a bit narcissist on that point in recent media. It was about secular political control. People still want secular political control…look at Ukraine.

First Cause of a Universe Misc

 Entropy requires existing things to run down, so that’s a non sequitur so far as causality goes for this poor Aquinian inquiry. David Hume made a good point about causality in dismissal of the relationship with effect. Generally one single item is not the sole cause of anything, except God perhaps whom cannot be said to have a necessary relationship in a physical sense to anything He wills to be. God is spirit and matter is substance, and the substance at its foundation is rather enigmatic rather than a matter that’s ineluctable.

Fields and their content are secondary phenomena of massless field particles entangled in the Higgs field. Entropy is the disassociation of order in that field; a unified field suppositionally that emerged through various phases. Wheeler wrote about retrocausality at any rate and if that exists it could be an amusing attribute for God.

A mind doesn’t seem to be a reflection of nature at all. Instead it is entirely different than matter in-itself and interprets sensations from nature or the state of the fields in which people cohere. People and minds add more to nature than exists in it. Nature is insensible generally with some life forms rising to awareness, Matter and the fields comprising; it unless God concerns Himself with it in some way, is completely dark noumena without rhyme or reason. A mind is not a reflection of that.The values of different points of view are determined by individuals.

Because people do not value all of those viewpoints equally some politicians are elected while others aren’t. That is democracy and market forces apply even concerning viewpoints. For example, Einstein’s viewpoint about relativity was more valued than Irwin Corrie’s generally. On truth theory, there is a social context for truth. One person communicates something to another and what they say should be verifiable as how the state of affairs is. ‘Reality’- a concept, is not so involved as is accuracy of language in communication.

Words can be used to describe nature, and people might agree a statement about it is true yet they all might be wrong about it. Human and social ideas about what is true or false may be wrong. Consider the diversity of opinion about global atmospheric heating or the seriousness of US. public dent reaching 34 trillion dollars. Sartre wrote about social reality in Being and Nothingness and The Critique of Dialectical Reason and noted that colonialists and various power groups sometimes have their own proprietary vocabulary and interpret reality-social reality differently than non-insider groups such as proletariats.

Limp Wristed US Foreign Policy Let's Turkey Take Imperial Control of Syria

Turkey formerly was the Imperial ruler over the Middle East. It lost that status during the First World War after the allied victory over Germany, Turkey and other Habsburg powers.  Turkey is the force behind the Syrian conquest by terrorist rebels affiliate with Al Qaeda and the Islamic State that are continuing the war on Kurds and their American supporters in Eastern Syria.

Plainly Turkey is unwilling to share Syria with Kurds and Israelis. Israel needs the southern third of Syria for a security zone and the Kurds finally should achieve enough living space to form their own nation joining with the Kurdish zone in Iraq in some kind of way acceptable to the Iraqi government.

The allied victory promised the Kurds their own nation at the end of WW1 and reneged on the promise.  Turkey has found an opportunity to overthrow the World War 1 loss of their Imperial Empire and conquer at least Syria to start with. Because of weak American comprehension of history a limp wristed foreign policy has taken the wrong side in the Ukraine war and let Turkey run amuck in Syria. When firing a large caliber foreign policy hand gun one should keep their wrist straight.

President-elect Donald Trump abandoned the Kurds during his first term and has expressed a non-interventionist policy for Syria. He may choose to throw Turkey to the wolves and be as callous as the lame duck Joe Biden in letting the bully Turkeys have their way in rubbing out The long suffering Kurds that have supported US interests time and time again in the Middle East.

It Mayn't be Possible to Know the Shape of the Universe

The Malament-Manchak theorem suggests that it isn’t really possible to know the global shape of the Universe after all. That shape would include space-time. Many would be initially unhappy yet realize later that the facts are good and better than the happiness of believing in Big Bang Theory if that is false. https://aeon.co/…/scientists-are-no-longer-sure-the…

https://www.sciencedirect.com/…/abs/pii/S1355219808000580 Malament-Manchak theorem.   God is eternal and one may believe or not that he could initiate waves or particles to appear to exist for sentients preceptors with a temporal beginning and end of experience. Phases of being may exist replete with space-time.

Crossing the Red Sea (Yam Suf)

The premise that happiness is the only good is quite superficial. It’s good to know things, and to be saved unto eternal life for those of faith, yet knowledge doesn’t always make one happy. To require that happiness attend everything good is to demand that the good is somewhat silly. One could be high on dope and very happy even as it ends one’s life. There may in fact be objective standards for what the good is that people are entirely unaware of yet that are nevertheless valid.

One might be unhappy to learn that the Big Bang didn’t really happen, if it is possible to exhaustively disprove that theory. The Malament-Manchak theorem suggests that it isn’t really possible to know the global shape of the Universe after all. It is so though that many would be initially unhappy yet realize later that the facts are good and better than the happiness of believing in Big Bang Theory. https://aeon.co/…/scientists-are-no-longer-sure-the…

Socrates might have noted that if happiness can be detached from any property then it isn’t actually a meaningful part of the property that one is happy about. If one stipulates that happiness is simply a state of affairs that is always good, and that nothing else is good, one might not only be unhappy about that determination, one might have no sense at all about value theories, nor belief that there is such a thing as the good that can exist for itself; even if the awareness of the presence of the good occurs simply within a mind stimulated by externally perceived objects or circumstances that have no element of happiness in them.

Echoes of a Dying Sphere v2 1

  This is an audio and video created by udio.com's AI from the lyrical prompt I made.

AI Considers the DOGE Program

I gave a prompt to an AI about the new DOGE program. The following is what it output.

“Title: The Doge Program: Making America Efficient Again

Panel 1:
(Trump, standing behind a podium in a press conference, holding up a poster with a shiba inu in a business suit labeled “Doge Program.”)
Trump: “Folks, we have a huge problem—our debt is out of control! It’s caused by three things: illegal aliens, lazy Americans, and foreign aid. But don’t worry, I’ve got the answer: the new Doge Program!”

Panel 2:
(A reporter raises their hand.)
Reporter: “Mr. President, what does Doge stand for?”
Trump: “It doesn’t stand for anything—it’s just smart branding. Everybody loves Doge. So efficient. Much budget-saving. Wow.”

Panel 3:
(Cut to a meeting of “Doge Program” bureaucrats: a golden retriever in glasses and a shiba inu in a tie sit at a desk piled high with budget spreadsheets.)
Golden Retriever: “First step—cut all funding to foreign countries, except for countries we like. That’s good budgeting, right?”
Shiba Inu: “Wow. Much patriotic. Such fiscal responsibility.”

Panel 4:
(Back at the press conference.)
Trump: “And the rich? Folks, let me tell you—they’re working so hard, they don’t even have time to spend their money! We’re cutting their taxes to save the government money. If we tax them less, there’s less paperwork. No brainer.”

Panel 5:
(A skeptical reporter raises an eyebrow.)
Reporter: “How does that actually cut government spending?”
Trump: “Listen, these are the best ideas. The best. You wouldn’t understand. Doge understands.”

Panel 6:
(A shiba inu in the background barks enthusiastically while wearing a MAGA hat.)
Caption: And so began the Doge Program, revolutionizing the federal budget one meme at a time.”

The AI wrote some funny stuff yet even so I am not convinced that getting Americans to burn more fossil fuels and coercing the world to follow will actually make America great again,; or something to laugh about.

Genesis and The Indeterminacy of Translation

It’s best to stay with the Bible. If one is philosophically inclined you may take that lifelong course of inquiry to learn more of human history. There are so many books about the Bible, science and history to examine. Wittgenstein and Quine developed linguistic philosophy among others. Yet for understanding the Bible in depth a lot of specialized and general knowledge is required.

Really there isn’t one simple book to explain all of the possible historical and historical circumstances in which ancient scripture fits. A deictic reference is one that was written in a particular historical period and that dates material. Understanding the knowledge that people had in a given era as compared with today is another kind of reference base for comparison for interpretation of meaning.

I had a few tries at interpreting paradigmata of some of Genesis and other books of the Bible. Those books of mine are free to download.

Lots of theories and variables involved with dating early Genesis. Avrm was circa 2000 BC. You might want to read; Abraham: The First Historical Biography by Rosenberg. I made a timeline from Noah once using a certain criteria quite a bit more expansive than from the Younger Dryas period. That is in one of my free books considering such topics. One might go on about such considerations for quite a while without certainty.

Trust Generative AI Rather than Elon Musk to Increase Efficiency of Government Spending

Reduction in government spending by increasing efficiency and eliminating redundancy should be made by programming a Generative AI with deep learning and objective data to analyze the federal economy. Simply trusting the richest on Earth to trim spending probably will trim the poor who were already cast aside by Democrats as deplorables.

Application programming interfaces can be comprehensive and facilitate predictive analytics for federal spending policy. Generative AI can be adapted with bi-partisan input and a broad social spectrum of specialists that comprehend well all social strata of the American experience and economy to churn and burn ideas to make government spending cheaper and better.

Pres Biden Sends His Last Billion to keep Snogost and Sudzha in Zelinsky' s Power

Snogost and Sudzha are just 44 minutes apart and about 15 miles from Ukraine inside Russia. Part of the Kursk Oblast and the Zaporizhia Nuclear Power plant are places Joe Biden wants to keep or take for Ukraine control though most Americans couldn’t care less about either.

The late days of the Biden administration are a bit mysterious. Nodding trips to Angola, a walk into the Amazon jungle, a pardon for his son and media talk of pardons for crimes that have yet to be charged on famous Democrats- as if that were even marginally legal since even Democrats are not above the law and cannot be made a priori immune from legal actions against them.

These are quite mysterious times. A lightning fast war in Syria by rebels-  a 3 day war, brought neo-anarchy and the end of the Syrian government. Was that also part of Biden’s hidden war agenda with hidden rationale?

The Fall of Damascus is Anticipated

The fall of Damascus may transpire next week since Turkey’s sponsored invasion is finding success. A motley crew of divers rebels and terrorists that are well provisioned is making lightning advances all over Syria.

The aftermath of the takeover is complex to predict. At least the Biden administration will be gone soon enough and lack the opportunity to mess things up even worse for US and global security.

Syria is being taken

Generative AI Directed Construction in Micro-gravity

Generative AI utilizes deep learning networks and self supervision for ‘comprehension’ of complex models and instructions That capability could be applied to coordinating assembly of magnetized building components in micro-gravity rather easily I would think.

AI could design if required, and definitely build structures of complex design that could be moved with magnetic switching of components controlled by AI.

There could be innumerable permutations of configurations of material size, shape and temporal behavior of components, as well as for arrangements of magnetic charge, area and longevity of phenomenal polarity.

I thought of using AI to direct complex constructions in microgravity where order of assembly switching on and off…controlling magnetized and electronagetized building modules for space stations could be applied utilizing ai designs for optimal efficient selection and designed of space modules. What do you think about AI learn to do that?

ChatGPT replied…

“Using AI to direct complex constructions in microgravity is an excellent and forward-thinking idea. Here’s why it’s not only feasible but also a promising area for innovation:

Why AI is Suitable for Microgravity Construction

1. Optimal Design and Assembly Planning:
AI can analyze vast amounts of data to optimize the design and assembly process for modular space stations. By leveraging generative design algorithms, AI can propose configurations that maximize structural stability, functionality, and efficiency while minimizing weight and material usage—key factors in space construction.


2. Dynamic Control of Assembly:
AI systems can autonomously manage the sequence of switching on and off magnetized and electromagnetized modules. This would allow precise control in microgravity, where traditional construction methods relying on gravity or friction are ineffective. Machine learning algorithms could adapt to unforeseen challenges in real-time, such as module drift or misalignment.


3. Simulation and Training:
Before deployment, AI can simulate construction processes in virtual environments, accounting for factors like microgravity physics, radiation, and thermal effects. These simulations could provide insights into potential challenges, enabling better preparation and training for astronauts or robotic systems.


4. Real-Time Decision Making:
During assembly, AI could analyze sensor data in real time to make decisions about module positioning, attachment, and orientation. For example, reinforcement learning algorithms could be trained to determine the most efficient sequence for assembling a complex structure, even adapting mid-process if conditions change.


5. Integration with Robotics and Drones:
AI could coordinate autonomous robots or drones equipped with gripping mechanisms and electromagnets to handle construction tasks. These robots would operate collaboratively under AI supervision, performing precise movements that are difficult for humans in bulky spacesuits.


Challenges and Solutions

Microgravity Dynamics: AI models would need extensive training using simulations of microgravity physics to account for unique behaviors, such as objects floating and limited resistance.

Communication Delays: On-site AI autonomy is critical, as communication delays with Earth make real-time human oversight impractical.

Energy Efficiency: AI-controlled systems would need to minimize energy consumption for magnets and robotics, which could be managed through intelligent scheduling and prioritization.


Potential Applications

Building modular space stations, habitats on the Moon or Mars, and orbital factories.

Creating massive telescope arrays or other large scientific instruments in space.

Assembling solar power arrays or other infrastructure for space-based energy systems.


Next Steps

To achieve this vision, collaboration between space agencies (like NASA, ESA), private companies (like SpaceX, Blue Origin), and AI researchers would be essential. By starting with small-scale experiments (e.g., assembling prototypes on the International Space Station), the system could evolve to handle larger, more complex projects.

AI-driven construction in microgravity has the potential to revolutionize how humanity builds in space, making large-scale infrastructure projects not only feasible but efficient and reliable.”

What the Universe Is; On Laws of Physics

Empty space-time and laws. Laws are phase behavior structures of a unified field unpacking. I wonder if space-time in-itself isn't the content provider of all of matter within space-time since energy is just the potential for work. Perhaps the matter and energy of a universe are pre-set at initial singularity and is equal to the empty volume of space-time infinitely reduced. God is good.

Atheist Hope for Logical Refutation of God

I asked ChatGPT to prove that logic isn’t logical. On the technical basis it advanced several points. On the semantic issue it said that well, logic is logic implicitly. Then it cited Godel’s incompleteness theorems to mention that in any sufficiently complex system some formal statements can’t be proven within the system and hence logic cannot prove it’s own foundation. Those may be useful points to keep handy when asserting propositions about the unknown . Atheists necessarily must stipulate they don’t know God.

Apparently neither Euclid's axioms or proportional logic are able to represent complex arithmetical concepts and hence are exempt from Godel's Incompleteness theorems. It was mentioned that even simple systems can be incomplete however. An example made was Euclid's axioms and postulates if he had omitted the parallel postulate.

Turkey-N.A.T.O. Opens Another Front of Religious War

N.A.T.O. member Turkey is sponsoring an insurrection and invasion of Syria in a religious war to benefit N.A.T.O. members, or so they believe The Assad minority government is comprised of Alawi/Shia that Sunnis would like to depose.

The war is timed to distract Russia that provides military assistance to Syria. Since the Obama administration organized Sunni rebels to war on the Syrian government, Democrat Party policy has been in support of regime change.

France controlled Syria from 1919 until 1946 so they probably support the invasion too  For some unknown reason Democrat leaders believe it’s in US interests to have the middle east ruled by Sunni and Syria purged of Christians and Allawi. Muslims countries are intolerant of religious pluralism so if the Sunni won some sort of genocide or mass exodus would take place.

America’s Middle East problems started when they choose to support a coup to purge an elected Prime Minister and install a puppet emperor mperor. They have been unable to admit the error and reconcile ever since. In fact they segregated hospitals for Americans and would not let Iranians get treatment there during the Shah’s era when Americans were involved in oil extraction.

Because the Sunni are rich in Saudi, Brain, Qatar, the tab Emirates etc. the U.S.A. leadership has chased after their money. Some of those nations have recognized Israel diplomatically and invest in the U.S.A. Thus Democrat leaders have blinders on about what problems could potentially arise with Lebanon and Syria becoming Suni, as several administrations were with China.

If Syria attacks Turkey for enabling the war the N.A.T.O. treaty provision probably would be requested by Turkey. That sort of corrupt circumstance is one reason why the U.S.A. should no longer be a member. Because N.A.T.O. is now an EU superstar military expansion organization the U.S.A. now and in the future be nothing more than dopey sycophants following along after corrupt European machinations and that is not a rational course to follow. Gaming and gambling the human race on military adventurism when peace is more cost effective and safer is a better direction; the preferred direction, to go.
