Pres Trump Gets Phase 1 of Containing the Ukraine Conflict Signed

President Trump has accomplished getting Ukraine and Russia to agree to terms that reduce the scale of the war somewhat. It is called a partial cease fire. That is comparable to a partial silence; an oxymoron yet meaningful in comparison to a reduction of noise level from a higher level.

Ukraine and Russia agree to keep their ships in neutral corners east and west of the Black Sea although Russia will have access to the Mediterranean via the middle and southern parts of that body of water through Turkey. Russia needs merchant ship access to the world to trade food commodities since the U.S.A. is lifting several sanctions on Russian agriculture and food related trade. Ukraine agreed not to use ships to bring weapons to Odessa and the south shore of Ukraine.

Each side won't attack energy facilities for thirty days, although since Russia began its cease fire on Ukraine energy sites a few days earlier the 30 days for each art occur on a slightly different schedule/

This is all good news. Maybe hungry Africans will get some food relief and American farmers may have better export markets indirectly lowering the cost of bread in the U.S.A. if farmers won't under-plant worried about poor export markets for surplus grain (a theory of mine).

Drones Will Help Extirpate Endangered Species

A globe with ten billion people (two billion rural residents weren't counted reportedly) saturated with silent small drones useful to poachers for hunting endangered yet valuable species will accelerate the demise of wild animals. Poachers will exploit the cost effectiveness of drones as sentinels to protect pouching operations from game wardens. Even night vision capable drones will be used to find hidden human law enforcement agents lurking in the bush. I would guess human traffickers are upgrading their scouting missions to locate border security personnel in the field as well.

Virtue Signaling the Attack on Houthi Mob

 SecDef Hegseth spilled the beans on Signal providing timing of his well-designed retaliatory attack on Yemen. Like Babe Ruth pointing out where he was going to hit the ball out of the park the Secretary of Defense described for his party conference on Signal the timing and location of the impending successful American strike to degrade the capacity of Houthi terrorists to attack free shipping in the approach to the Suez canal/Red Sea, Israel and other locations with missiles and drones. Yemen launched a hypersonic missile to attack Israel June 19, 2024 and a day or two ago.  https://trt.global/world/article/3edeb1dfef9c

Such advanced weapons were supplied manufactured by the Houthis themselves, perhaps with support from Iran. A website says the Palestine-2 missile travels at Mach 16 speed. That seems a bit fast. Mach 6 is more probable.    https://armyrecognition.com/military-products/army/missiles/hypersonic-missiles/palestine-2-hypersonic-missile

Any use of social media tools for secure defense purposes is a bad idea unless one wants to leak information. Even Starlink if it chose to do so might be able to monitor Ukraine’s military communications on its system and provide that content to the Russian military if Ukraine continued to be non-compliant with following President Trump’s peace initiative criterion. Using signal and including an Atlantic reporter on the list of people sharing the data was surreptitious bragging or an example of why not to trust the internet with defense secrets; even encrypted open-source sites like Signal. https://signal.org/

Time in Everett-Tegmark's Level Four Multiverse is an Illusion

 Contemporary theory is that time may not exist and is simply a contingent effect of quantum entanglement 'locally'. With relativity as a continuing operating premise, it is just physical change that occurs without time being an item apart in-itself. If time is an emergent phenomenon of quantum entanglement it may be possible to learn and duplicate various relevant quantum structures to relocate or reconstruct 'time'.

Current theories of time as an emergent characteristic created by quantum entanglement interacting for a temporal order with a human mind suggest that the Universe may already be fully, temporally existent such that it has not time. Neither is there causality. Further; nothing is an accident. A recent N.A.S.A. video explains what is in effect the Everett many worlds criteria developed to Tegmark's level four Multiverse. The point is made at the end of the video.    https://youtu.be/tc7LpJswIZU

Locke and the Obligation to Revolt

The Declaration of Independence shares and follows by about 90 years Locke's premise about an obligation to revolt when government is corrupt and inimical to the public good. Locke wrote about that in 'Two Treatises on Government'. Failing to defend the borders though, only required electing some other leader. Violence should be the last choice rather than the first.

Locke wrote in the  Second Treatise on Government; 149 “Though in a Constituted Commonwealth, standing upon its own Basis, and acting according to its own Nature, that is, acting for the preservation of the Community, there can be but one Supream Power, which is the Legislative, to which all the rest are and must be subordinate, yet the Legislative being only a Fiduciary Power to act for certain ends, there remains still in the People a Supream Power to remove or alter the Legislative, when they find the Legislative act contrary to the trust reposed in them. For all Power given with trust for the attaining an end, being limited by that end, whenever that end is manifestly neglected, or opposed, the trust must necessarily be forfeited, and the Power devolve into the hands of those that gave it, who may place it anew where they shall think best for their safety and security. And thus the Community perpetually retains a Supream Power of saving themselves from the attempts and designs of any Body, even of their Legislators, whenever they shall be so foolish, or so wicked, as to lay and carry on designs against the Liberties and Properties of the Subject. For no Man, or Society of Men, having a Power to deliver up their Preservation, or consequently the means of it, to the Absolute Will and arbitrary Dominion of another; whenever any one shall go about to bring them into such a Slavish Condition, they will always have a right to preserve what they have not a Power to part with; and to rid themselves of those who invade this Fundamental, Sacred, and unalterable Law of Self-Preservation, for which they enter'd into Society. And thus the Community may be said in this respect to be always the Supream Power, but not as considered under any Form of Government, because this Power of the People can never take place till the Government be dissolved.”

Artificial General Intelligence and Quantum Entanglement

Plainly though, someone could program AGI to seek to bond, infuse ts own code into other programs and multiply itself without even thinking about that. It would be like a very smart virus.

https://suno.com/…/eca71211-2fe3-4715-9139-331a1ac20eb7…

It may that Tegmark’s level four Universe does exist and time is nothing more than an emergent effect of quantum entanglement with the mind switching about into appropriate Universes in its own world-line of experience. An AGI probably could not do that, unless humans first learned how they do that without being aware of it themselves. Why humans may have that ability is a mystery. https://youtu.be/tc7LpJswIZU

Logic is Universal

 Logic is a way of ordering ideas for analysis. Like grammars of different languages there are some common structures. If humans or other species have ideas that may be ordered in order for clarification they may be represented in formal systems. Formal logic isn’t a closed or exclusive system. They may be said to exist in model universes, for their are numerous varieties of formal logic system. Quine in a book named ‘Methods of Logic’ described the “fell swoop” method of constructing your own system of logic.

https://archive.org/details/methodsoflogic0000quin_m7n0

A sentient species have a way of interpreting the heteronomy of perception they are bound to experience. One may apply a method of logic to analyze the language or structure of ideas concerning intentional thought, as well as extensional thought concerning the heteronomy (although some species may have surpassed heteronomy to render all objective experience subjective so for them the Universe-mind experience is an autonomy, yet I am skeptical that any species in the Universe has achieved the ‘little god’ status and graduated to eternal boredom.

The logical system that a species uses, or rather systems, are constructions of the species. I think it likely that some logical systems would be discovered or invented by diverse and unrelated species, as some mathematics would be likely to be developed by species in the Andromeda Galaxy for instance. https://suno.com/…/376fb6f0-d4c0-4011-ab97-b194e982e9e5…

Zelensky Is Exploiting Trump to Protract the War

 President of Ukraine Zelensky seems to be playing Donald Trump in order to lever war advantages. He has attacked Russian energy targets while Russia didn't attack energy targets after the lists of energy targets not to attack were exchanged.

President Zelensky has also demanded a replacement for Trumps special envoy Steve Witkoff who is negotiating the peace process for President Trump.  Steve Witkoff said Mr. Zelensky, is a Russian puppet. It may be that Zelensky wants someone appointed by Obama or Biden who will agree with his intention to protract the war.

In order to bring the war to a conclusion President Trump should stop provide military intelligence fro the Pentagon to Ukraine. While the U.S. provides intelligence Mr. Zelensky will continue to attack special Russian targets with remaining military missile and drones provided by the United States and sundry European powers that lust to make war. Zelensky and European N.A.T.O. allies remind me of when I visited Nome during the Cold War and saw a poster of B-52s dropping dozens of large bombs with the caption "Pray for War'.

Pres Trump Can Lead Zelensky to Water; Can't Make Him Drink

 President Trump has brought the two primary belligerents in the Ukraine War closer to peace, yet Ukraine Leader Zelensky still is recalcitrant about accepting peace where Russia gets much land on the east side of the Dnepr River. That is the final settlement though. A demilitarized West Ukraine recognized by Russia, an East Ukraine made of Russian and Russian affiliated states and a mutual recognition that war needs to be allowed to be a horrible loss of life and memory fading into memory.

https://foreignpolicy.com/2025/03/18/russia-ukraine-war-ceasefire-peace-negotiations-trump-zelensky-putin/

The public should elect technically competent individuals to political roles; when they don't there may be substantive negative consequences. Although Mr. Zelensky graduated from Kiev College with a law degree, satisfying Democrat Party qualifications for politician like Adam Schiff, he began a career as a politician even before graduation. He persisted advancing as a comic actor and comedian until elected in 2019 to the office of President after making a movie about an historian elected President. The film was financed by one of the richest men in Ukraine.

Mr. Zelensky is a comic actor that could not help presiding over the tragedy in Ukraine. He is not a statesman, historian or pragmatist for peace; he is instead a creature of ambition.

Summer of 2025 should be the beginning of reconstruction of war torn areas along ecologically sustainable lines such that the work comprises a revolution in progress. A season of hope and progress is immeasurably superior to those of death.

Chemical Rockets are Slow In Comparison to Electron Beams for Spaceship Power

 Chemical rockets are very slow. It would be faster to establish an electron beam network around the entire solar system to power spaceships to a substantive portion of the speed of light. One must look ahead. One should also use linear electro-magnetic accelerators for launching modules from Earth to space over a 100 mile long track. A dummy front ship would serve as a heat shield until reaching orbit. Alternatively one could just use chem rockets and wait until some Chinese entrepreneur with state financing decides to make space transport innovations great again.

Political Terms Left and Right Have Had Their Day

 People on the left love evolution yet can't imagine that politics should evolve beyond the liberal viewpoint of Marx and Magna Carta and conservatism of King Henry the 8th. Even when it has evolved it isn't recognized by the right or left, so they reduce arguments between left and right to complete antipathy and argument for-itself as the summum bonum of politics. And in the meanwhile there may be a hidden surplus Earth rural population of a billion or three that weren't counted by scientists. People are oriented toward short term results and leadership can't restructure the economy to an acceptable foundation of ecological sustainability. The old categories are easiest to use and continue.

Global Population May Have Reached Ten Billion Humans Already

 Apparently social scientists have been under-counting the rural population of the world by 50% to 84% for quite a while. Forty percent of the people of Earth live in rural areas, so 50% of that is 20% of the population.  At least that much isn't counted on surveys. With 8.2 billion being the official number for the population this year, that means there may be more than 10 to 12 billion people on Earth already.

Democrats may seek to find a way to let those billions move to California in order to win elections.

Singularities Aren't All Created Equal

 Physical inferences and all other human thought apparently originate in the physical universe. There have been recent photos published by the Atacama Telescope, that went out of business in 2022 ,that show the early universe as it appeared 13 billion years ago. That is interesting for numerous reasons.

One I find interesting is that matter and anti matter canceled themselves out after those properties first appeared from a probable singularity. CP invariance let a very small percent of matter survive the renormalization That mass is primarily what appears in the photos, raising the point that it should be possible to calculate from the observable Universe then how much matter and anti-matter was in the singularity.

Singularities are not all equal in size and gravitational power. Time occurs differently in singularity if it exists at all. That is good because time only started with the release of matter/antimatter from the singularity with hyperinflation. In reverse though, the fields that were unified early on before expansion needed yet to have gravity to keep the singularity together, and the gravity particles existing below the plank length (if at all) at a certain minimal size of contraction turned off when the Universe became smaller than gravity field mesh. If the Universe as a singularity at that point became smaller than the gravitational field that contained it, it might have escaped like water through a fish net.

Maybe an area like this is a region were physics and metaphysical questions coincide, for there are more vectors to consider than may be addressed with arbitrary constraints on fields of inquiry. Time would follow the shape of fields unified and configured within a singularity and differentiated as it changed with no necessity for a direction of time that was uniform unless the physical shape of the singularity upon parole was uniform.

Black holes and singularities are consequences rather than appearing from nowhere. Existing mass need contract into a singularity before it may escape. The conundrum of what came first; the chicken or the egg, appears to fit singularities too.

Make America Competitive Again with High Speed Rail Coverage of Western Hemisphere

 China's Belt and Road initiative is developing rail service all over Central Asia among other developments in order to provide direct access routes for trade from Iran to Pakistan, Afghanistan, Russia, Holland and many, many more locations. China's economy will have raw materials including oil that can travel by land rather than by sea. The U.S.A. has no comparable rail network linking Alaska, Canada and South America directly with high speed rail for passengers and freight.

The Chinese economy already is the largest in the world and has the most international trade. To make America competitive in the future, much less great, the entire Western Hemisphere continental land masses need to be brought into a unified high speed rail transportation system, possibly using electro-magnetic powered lines above and below ground (for instance tunneling under the Panama canal).

Presently the United States cannot get even a basic high speed rail line built between Los Angeles and California. President Trump has cut back funding of fast land transportation ventures supported by government; failing to unify North and South America in a very fast high speed land rail system probably will harm the U.S. economy down the road. If water is the best way between several regions of North and South America then it is just as practical to send trade to Europe and China by water.

Rambo could drive a burning arrow through a bullet hole through and through his gut to cauterize it without suffering; he enjoyed being tough. Others emulate that (until it hurts). As a sign in an employers place read; "The beatings will stop when morale improves".

Reality as a Continuum

Reality may appear as a continuum, or something that continues temporally even though time may be an illusion created by membranes or some other field phenomenon moving past. Time may be more relativistic than one thinks; it may be so relativistic that, unified with space, it hasn't an independent existence.

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4geldjjge0o

The continuum may exist solely in the physical as one might logically expect since people are just a tiny part of a large structure and cannot see the end of it in any direction. Humanity are large clumps of quanta themselves embedded in the Higgs field and given a third dimension instead of being massless two-dimensional quanta that could become part of a sentient being if time were ever to be and become.  https://youtu.be/tc7LpJswIZU

One Shouldn't Get All Misty About Below the Plank Length Alternative Realities

The Plank length is nothing more than a unit of measure. Plank wrote... “it is possible to set up units for length, mass, time and temperature, which are independent of special bodies or substances, necessarily retaining their meaning for all times and for all civilizations, including extraterrestrial and non-human ones, which can be called "natural units of measure".”

Physicists have commented that the Heisenberg Uncertainty principle and additional factors make it impossible with quantum mechanics to determine below Plank’s unit of measure the location of a particle. That is meaningful in case gravity has an origin below that length. There is nothing about extra-dimensions or extra-universes hidden below the plank length, if any, that are known.

https://suno.com/song/fef281f9-7897-4638-b619-0c223890763d?sh=NFlfhaY4sHnYdzdY

A wikipedia quote; “The term Planck scale refers to quantities of space, time, energy and other units that are similar in magnitude to corresponding Planck units. This region may be characterized by particle energies of around 1019 GeV or 109 J, time intervals of around 5×10−44 s and lengths of around 10−35 m (approximately the energy-equivalent of the Planck mass, the Planck time and the Planck length, respectively).”

Gemeni Avoided the Math of Calculations for Relocating Planets

I  asked Gemini several questions about relocating Europa to a safe place closer to Earth and finally pairing it with Venus in a binary orbit. While not quite a nattering nabob of negativism, Gemini was pessimistic about the engineering to move planets because techniques to do so haven't yet been invented and published. 

https://suno.com/song/50d96a2f-e641-4b3f-99f7-d7d11d2e2996?sh=ku7xalI9zsAPqMDv

There should be a little how to book with dozens of techniques. It seemed it didn't want to do the math. Maybe the free version eschews calculations of  that sort; something to be aware of. It did write this however...

"The idea of having Europa and Venus orbit each other is a fascinating thought experiment, but it presents significant challenges and considerations:

Potential Advantages (Theoretical):

Combined Resources:

Venus has a dense atmosphere rich in carbon dioxide, while Europa has abundant water ice. Combining these resources could potentially create a more habitable environment.

Radiation Shielding:

Venus's thick atmosphere could provide some shielding against radiation, which is a major concern for Europa.

Orbital Stability (Potentially):

If the two bodies were carefully placed in a stable binary orbit, it could theoretically provide long-term stability.

Significant Challenges:

Orbital Mechanics:

Establishing and maintaining a stable binary orbit between two bodies of such different sizes and characteristics would be incredibly complex.

The gravitational interactions between the two bodies, as well as the Sun and other planets, would need to be precisely calculated and managed.

Temperature Differences:

Venus has an extremely hot surface temperature, while Europa is very cold. Reconciling these temperature extremes would be a massive engineering challenge.

Atmospheric Differences:

Venus's dense, toxic atmosphere is vastly different from Europa's near-vacuum. Creating a habitable atmosphere would require extensive modification.

Relocation Energy:

Moving both Venus and Europa to a suitable location and establishing a stable binary orbit would require astronomical amounts of energy.

Tidal Forces:

The tidal forces exerted by each body on the other would have to be calculated, and accounted for. These forces could cause extreme geological activity.

Planetary Protection:

If Europa has life, contaminating it with earth life, or venusian materials, would be a huge concern.

Feasibility:

Currently, this concept is far beyond our technological capabilities.

It would require breakthroughs in gravitational engineering, propulsion, and terraforming.

The energy requirements alone would be staggering.

In conclusion:

Therefore, while it is a fun concept to consider, it is not within the realm of possible engineering for the foreseeable future.

While the idea of Europa and Venus orbiting each other is intriguing, it presents immense challenges.

The orbital mechanics, temperature differences, and atmospheric disparities would be extremely difficult to overcome."
