What if there is no optimal..even with super computers and AI? Polynomial optimization problem in artificial intelligence means we may be back to just winging it. Why is this important? Let's find out. quantamagazine.org/surprising-lim…
Researchers from the University of Bath and York St John University found that, since the 1980s, millennial's obsession with perfection has increased by a third, which they blame on the impact of neoliberal economics. Say What? apa.org/pubs/journals/…
Neoliberialism. A 19th century idea that has destroyed many nations and built others. An idea that "maintains that “the market” delivers benefits that could never be achieved by planning." AKA stupid greedy people in charge. Where else is this being used? theguardian.com/books/2016/apr…
Recent news from Yemen, Libya, Sudan and Ethiopia is the result of meddling by Gulf entities who don't actually care about the end state but rather the disruption of markets that would benefit smaller faster players rather than larger richer ones. Move fast and break things.
The UAE is currently executing their 1922 Project. An attempt to destabilize numerous nations and partner with Wagner to add military muscle to exploit by squatting. A passive aggressive barrage of self serving fuckery that has no counter program by the US or Europe.
Its an acceptance of weakness and incompetence. Applied constantly and against all sides this will degrade potential threats. Hiring Wagner instead of openly partnering with Russia as their strategic partner is their response after we kicked the UAE to the curb.#AbrahamAccords
Again this concept is showcased in what we also call "disruption". But normally competence or innovation drives disruption. Not so in this foreign policy model. Money, persistence and fuckery can destabilize the most competent or stable nations. online.hbs.edu/blog/post/4-ke…
Russia's quid pro quo for letting the UAE hire Wagner is they get funding to pour into soon to be annexed national. Ukraine, Kosova and Belarus. With strategic footprints from Syria to Mozambique. eurasiareview.com/15102021-exami…
Why we pencil out trillion dollar defense budgets and execute complex foreign policy plans to engineer global stability, our competition is just doing repetitive smash and grabs. Frustrating our sense of control. Creating the ultimate free market global economy.#PiratesOfAbuDhabi
Warfare is shifting to the private sector controlled by petrodictators. When the Emirates and friends establish their cryptostate they will no longer rely on the U.S. dollar or give a shit about sanctions. Petrodollars flowing into free market warfare. Putin is smiling.
The US and China have big plans and big ideas but they won't invest in constantly disrupted war torn nations. We also won't fight ground wars in shitholes for a long time. We are back to the era of the sovereign companies... without the Royal charter. bitcoinmagazine.com/culture/the-so…
Why make people's lives miserable? Because the underlying resources don't care how many graves are dug above. They will have value in first world nations regardless of their origins. Copper, oil, rare earth minerals, are all desperately needed. Global warming never got the memo.
The lesson? Stop planning and start swinging. The more swarming we do in shitholes and the more links to development we create, the harder it is for petropunks to destabilize. It is because of the vacuum we have created that allows this space to be invaded (Thanks Donald)
