Stupidity of Modern War Shows AI and Drone Future for Land Battle

 The criminal stupidity of the Ukraine war that could have been avoided if the west shared some of historically Russian Ukraine with Russia has demonstrated the vulnerability of armored vehicles to accurate artillery fire directed by intelligence and surveillance from the land and sky. Not that Israel using Vietnam era M-113 armored personnel carriers should avoid some criticism. Maybe they can’t afford more modern Bradley fighting vehicles because the U.S. Congress hasn’t spent much on their milliary in comparison to that of Ukraine. Oh well.

Obviously tanks will need to be regarded as tiny aircraft carriers with a battle group of capable drone surrounding to defend them. From mines, from artillery strikes and other direct and indirect fire weapons. Planning for wars is a comparatively retarded venture when the smart thing is to avoid them with rational, fair and balanced international economic planning. Yet even the U.S. Congress can’t accomplish peaceful relations enough to pass a surfeit of good legislation.

Tanks may be downsized as well and be run remotely without humans inside them something like global hawk operators work aircraft from a distance. The inhumanization of war is something of a natural evolution of incompetent leadership in the U.S. and N.A.T.O countries that don’t prioritize ecological economic evolution with inclusiveness globally as immediately profitable or desirable as war.

It is wise to seek God

 It is wise to seek the truth. Some are called by the Spirit unto faith in the Lrd and salvation. Some people believe that spirit is the true nature of the Universe and that the Higgs Field entanglement of massless 2-dimensional particles creating the appearance of mass and being is a configuration of God...That is mass is a relatavistic phenomena that sems solid to people embedded within it. Some don't believe that obviously. The faithless whom are not reprobate may exert all manner of arguments against faith in an unseen realm of Spirit under the authority of God.

St. Augustine was a neo-Platonist follower of Plotinus before he converted to Christianity, or perhaps because of it. Luke 8-13 says "And the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear the word, receive it with joy. But these have no root; they believe for a while, and in time of testing fall away." It is not good to lose faith. Perhaps it was never well-rooted to start with. Many pastors talk about people attending church who are not really saved...that is they have not personally accepted Christ as their personal savior. It is a serious talk though. There is a passage from the book of Hebrews 6: 4-6 that causes worry for some of those that have lost faith. For it says they cannot be recovered for they would need to crucify Christ a second time. The good opinion might be to go aheaad and recover it as best you can with assurance the Lord will save you if possible. You needed to go pretty far to the dark side of faithlessness after being saved to find it impossible to find your way back. Jesus is the good Shepard.

Hai water (a haiku)

 

  Blue water would reach

angstroms of perception quarks

hai water to pink.

Colorfall (a Haiku)

 

     Pools of frozen time

shadow nature in quiet

     blue over pink landfall.

Hamas; The NAZI Party Next Door

 After the present conflict ends the Gaza will need to be on parole for twenty years. With good non-violent behavior then their graduation toward an independent status could resume. Like Canada or Australia gradually becoming independent as Britain relinquished direct control, Gaza too could become independent except perhaps I the fine print-possibly resembling again Britain’s relationship with Canada and Australia.

Hamas is the Nazi Party next door. President Biden and select U.N. personnel have suggested that Israel should cease fire before Hamas has been entirely removed from the Gaza. That is like suggesting that the Nazi party be protected and given a chance, with international nurturing, to recover and rebuild perhaps with a two-state solution so they can build up the Nazi military again.

Applying Wisdom to the Analysis of Theoretical Orchards (a poem)

 

The work is a slippery image
where inflation holds the keys
graduating ever for nowhere
progress is shooting the breeze

    Echoes of images draw
artificial intelligence dating
hope like figures scrimshawed
arisen for a while with ratings

    The truth was generations passing
economic handles disappearing fast
evolving atheist’s quicksilver massing
to nothingness with themselves in the past

    Bickering proofs pasted paper mache crowns
on pedestals of prosperity
that global warming rain drowns
with  Luddite ubiquity

    Wars conducted with tighter algorithms
fast as light laser bullets fly
unemployed forever targets fall to staccato rhythm
a democrat congress found a way for each to die.

Tunnel Vision (poem)


Organizations
and motivations
build the constructions
leading to war

  So look to the west
where fighting is best
with nothing but death
brought to the fore

  Violent Hamas
draws killing to pass
gang satanic mass
just death to see

  Never new in store
same old, same old war
like life is a whore
fait accompli.

Lebron James Didn't Really on a College Scholarship

 Lebron James never attended college. He was signed to the N.B.A. directly completing high school. Unlike most other N.B.A. players he never got a college scholarship. Giving scholarships to what are basically pro athletes is corrupt.

Colleges should give scholarships for scholarship; not sports. Sports in college should be intramural and purposed to build up student health. Colleges really ought to get out of the big man on campus sports focus and look toward becoming the best in the world with intelligence and education.

The United States has innumerable empirical challenges to day that can be solved only with better education of the populous. Better politicians, a better informed electorate, better philosophers,more quality scientists and a wealth of social science innovators need arise to overcome the reef of ignorance surrounding the island-like nation as if it were a coral atoll.

Pro entertainers comprise 5% of the top 1% of the nation’s richest. They provide good cover PR for the super-rich that don’t wish to be regarded as Scroggishish misers calculating like 100 lb weaklings how to skim off wealth from everyone in the country. Pro athletes in college should not receive scholarships though it is often touted how much revenue college sports- especially football bring to colleges. Creating an intellectual atmosphere on colleges is difficult enough without making colleges something like vast left-wing upper high schools churning out mediocrity to rise in business to make the nation a compliant plutocratic corporatocracy.

Colleges need to work hard to create a culture to support and develop intellectual excellence. It should not be a demographic dumping ground for quotas nor a place for developing athletes for pro sports. Sporting leagues should pay for their own minor leagues to develop prospects. Athletes that want to work in pro sports and yet attend college should receive scholarships solely on intellectual merit. Fundamentally the two activities should be separate.

Free Will and Non-Free briefly

 The determinism vs indeterminism argument is interesting especially from a Christian perspective. This is a very old discussion that has been gone over by the millions of words. God draws the elect unto the Lord Jesus Christ. There salvation is through grace rather than merit; that is no act of will or self-determination by a human gts himself saved. So the paradox of salvation by election of God- he will save those whom he will and how can mankind object since man is the pot and God is the potter.;some he makes for salvation, others for destruction etc. In quantum physics too there are many levels for simultaneous determinism and indeterminis as there is in behavorial psychology (ref BF Skinner). It seems there are necessary levels of protocol of contingent free will and automatic will existing simulatneously. It exists in human thought, quantum mechanical relationships and field phenomena and even in theology since God does hold people accountable for their actions.

Maternal Stress Tilts Odds toward Female Births

 Stress in females creates hormonal responses that tilt the odds toward female births. Apparently stress alters hormonal levels making it more difficult for sperm carrying y chromosomes to make it through cervical mucus to reach an egg. Sperm carrying x chromosomes are more efficient at navigating the obstacle. 

So a man may be quite stressed without affecting at all the odds for birth of either a boy or girl so far as present knowledge goes.
