nah "artificial intelligence" is a psy op. its just the name that tricks people. once a program + machine gets past a certain level of complexity u can convince people theres some magic "spark of intelligence" there but its not real. no machine is really different than ur toaster
they can take in data in certain ways and build on that data but it never actually crosses over a threshold into real sentience. its just movies that convince people of stuff like magic humanoid machines and people trying to advance their careers and get phds selling their work.
if you dig deeply into any type of "intelligent machine" or AI or things like this its never qualitatively different than your thermostat sensing that your house is 68 degrees and acting on that. it just passes that threshold where people stop understanding it + project sentiency

oddly this thing that has forced me to be apart from the people immediately surrounding me has made me feel closer with the (in a certain sense) abstract idea of “people in other states” and “the citizenry in general” than ever.
watching governors from across the country address their states while im working, struck with the same feeling i had seeing distant family when a relative died. like, hey we should do this more often. louisiana. why do we only talk when something bad happens. heres my number hmu
why dont governors just give addresses sometimes to let everyone else in the country know how its going in their state. i would watch that. whats going on in kansas. in washington. no one knows. how many people have seen or heard their governor speak for the first time this month

can i go full schizo mode. the places being hardest hit are former or current massive epicenters of human energy, former or current civilizational hot spots: china, persia, rome, US. seems like this would be just a “flow of people” thing but does that really explain it.
save ur “well actually” replies sometimes u have to put on the mythopoetic glasses and read life like a book instead of a science experiment. few understand this. run the numbers on where people actually go and move around to, from where, etc... doesnt totally add up. yet.
SOME PEOPLE (not me ofc) say the earth has something like chakras, chakras being a potentially non theological (supposed + hypothetical) map of how energy flows through ur body. SOME PEOPLE say the earth has something like this and there are nexuses where some of these paths meet

been obsessively watching the news and reading different sources, obviously. have you lived in a place with tornadoes before. right now its that moment where you can see a little bit of a whispy dark cloud trailing down and you cant tell if its just a weird cloud or a twister.
you get a notification on ur phone. TORNADO WATCH [NAME OF YOUR COUNTY]. you look out the window of your house. you can only see in one direction. you probably wouldnt see it coming anyway. guess ill go back to work. or. maybe ill just hang by the window. looking, just in case..
whats the vibe where youre at. i got people calling me from new york painting straight goyas black paintings in my ear and then i get calls from other places and theyre just waiting, nothings happening, they dont really believe what i relay to them usually. interesting dichotomy.

Hello, good afternoon, let's do another mappy Twitter-torial, shall we? Today's topic is visualizing aggregate data. Mostly it's a critique of this map, which you've probably seen quite a bit. It has great data! But I take issue with the techniques used. arcgis.com/apps/opsdashbo…
We are all familiar with maps that visualize aggregate data. The most common one you've probably seen is a "choropleth" map -- a map of areas that are filled in with a color or pattern that tell you something about that area. Like this electoral map from the BBC:
The colors on the map share information: which party won the district, and by what percentage. Choropleth maps have many of their own issues (making assumptions about large geographic areas), but are useful for showing data aggregated at an area level.

An important number to calibrate how much money Bezos has, to remember next time someone says something like "there shouldn't be billionaires":

Bezos isn't just rich enough to "buy an NFL team":
He could buy the ENTIRE FUCKING LEAGUE
This Forbes article lists all the team's values, from the Buffalo Bills (1.9 billion) to the Dallas Cowboys (5.5 billion)
forbes.com/sites/mikeozan…
add those all together and you get a total of 91.4 billion.
Jeff Bezos could buy all of the NFL and still have 17 billion left over

I think why you lot have problems with people you date us cos you ignore the signs and most people are getting relationship advise off social media. Forgetting that love and relationships no be one size fits all..
Basic communication, sincerity and the ability to resolve issues without Ego will go a long way to keep yall together

But everything is just all over the place. So it always baffles me how adults cant communicate..
Person go dey around you dey press phone. But as soon as them comot ur ends them go use 5 hrs reply your good morning

Cos the twitter mummy or daddy they follow has tweeted if you reply messages on time it shows ure desperate lmaooo..

There are some who still wonder if and why Nazi Germany was given secret UFO tech. The answer is yes they were, and not way too long before the start of WWII. Some may take issue with givingnevil people tech, but the reality is that it was meant to be a distraction that would
funnel away some resources and attention off of what was known to be a big war that was coming. Evil people do not just stop beingnevil because you want them to be. Distractions and misdirection do help. Care was taken to make sure the tech would not end up helping them do bad
in the war with UFO or alien tech. There was another reason though. If you see how this Awakening has been working, it would not be possible without modern tech. Additionally, the natural events that currently are getting worse now, and will be more worse toward 2021 or so, were

Reading about biometrics (and how easily they can be compromised) in this book and saw this quote about fingerprints. Check out who said it... 😕
“It’s just old wine in a new bottle” is a pretty good metaphor.
Whoa, the book goes on to talk about other biometrics being tested and mentioned RFID tattoos???

(I couldn't find anything more recent than a 4-yr-old article, so maybe this is falling by the wayside, but still!)
