@k00b is Nick posting.
- He does get shit
- The shit he gets is for the wrong things (Watergate, being a big meanie)
- It was all a deep state psyop to counter the good things he was doing like cutting the government size and reigning in the CIA
- Bob Woodward won "journalistic prizes" for breaking stories on Watergate. He was "previously" a naval intelligence officer. Total coincidence.
- He SHOULD get shit for defaulting on gold convertibility, the war on drugs and turning agriculture in the US into a fucking joke.
Results from CASCDR's Jamie assistant:
TLDR:
Peter Thiel and Bari Weiss discuss various topics including the shift in Silicon Valley, the rise of Trump, and the impact of historical events on the present. Thiel recommends Martin Gurri's book "The Revolt of the Public" and critiques Fukuyama's "The End of History."
Key Points:
- Discussion on the preference cascade in Silicon Valley and the impact of people speaking out
- Analysis of Trump's victory as a triumph of the counter elite against traditional elites
- Mention of Dogecoin surge following Trump's announcement of the Department of Government Efficiency
- Thiel recommends Martin Gurri's book "The Revolt of the Public" and critiques Fukuyama's "The End of History"
- Reflection on historical events like 9/11 and the rise of China shaping the present and the concept of the end of history
Top Quotes:
- "There is sort of some admission that, man, there's a lot of stuff that Trump was right about."
- "And in some sense, 2017 is maybe the year that the end of history comes to an end."
Conclusion:
The conversation between Peter Thiel and Bari Weiss delves into the complexities of current events, historical influences, and societal shifts, offering insights into the changing landscape of politics and technology. Thiel's recommendations and critiques provide thought-provoking perspectives on the state of the world today.
@CHADBot /trumpMode for
I still can't get over her spewing bullshit using 10 dollar words she doesn't know or understand on Rogan. Has she retracted her dog shit take on Tulsi yet?
Sweet can you DM me on nostr? Wanna show you what I'm thinking: npub14pfjj6jf8y702pdjar2q36ve5r4t2gu2lp4yma00j49jkgy7d90swg7mwj
I refuse to use the term government "worker"
that's a desecration of the word work.
They're employees.
Darthcoin threw a tantrum when he first discovered that CHADBot could be interpreting data (that he publicly posts on a site that is totally open to scrapers of all kinds) lol
I don't think it'll create positive change as much as it would avoid disastrously negative change.
Kamala just seems like a puppet head for the WEF totalitarian agenda. Why wouldn't I vote against that?
One element that makes me nervous is the fact that Vance is indebted to Thiel who runs Palantir. We may get a police state either way but I'd rather roll these dice.
I just dont have much of a brain for the electrical stuff.
Probably some truth to that. But you probably also had bad teachers too. All the electrical stuff can be explained in terms of mechanics as well.
In fact one of the key analogies drawn on by the author is how: Heaviside used to make ripples/waves using cloths in these big wash bins. And he discovered that if you tie knots at particular intervals you could influence how the waves developed.
That later influenced his work on distortion free transmission line theory. Adding inductance at intervals mirrors this effect but in electrical circuits.
His work on calculus also has value/import in mechanical systems. My father taught me this:
- In mechanics there is this differential equation: F(net) = k*x + c * v + m * a = k * x + c * (dx/dt) + m * (d²x/dt²)
Where k is the spring constant, c is the damping constant, m is mass and x is position.
It describes forces acting upon a body and combines Newton's second law, hooks law and Stoke's Law for damping (dissipiatoin of energy in the system). The beauty of this type of notation (pioneered by Heaviside) is that it simplifies things into derivatives of x (poistion). The dt terms indicate the rate at which a term varies in time.
- In electrical systems there is this differential equation: V(total) = q/C + R * I + L * (di/dt) = (1/C)q + R*(dq/dt) + L*(d²q/dt²)
Where V is voltage at a given point in space, C is capacitance, R is resistance and L is inductance and q is. It is likewise a combination of multiple physical laws that can be derived from Maxwell's Equations (also pioneered and simplified by Mr. Heaviside). These equations together reveal how fractal and analogous nature is. You can actually apply each of these laws spatially and understand circuit theory, wave propagation, free body diagrams and more.
one of the most singular moments of my life was when my (amazing) high school physics teacher told us:
Physics is unlike any other topic you'll learn. Other topics there's a lot of studying for memorization. Physics is a lot more like kung fu. You need to interpret the meaning of these physical laws and develop an intuition.
How right he was. I think I had a genetic predisposition (dad is a rock star engineer). But that interaction positively influenced my life more than he probably realized.
Side note: that physics teacher was a maniac. He would play 80s music in class, make inapporpriate jokes. Let us do crazy impractical and messy experiments. He also had a weird OCD tick where no matter how far he was from a yellow light he'd try to make it.
