My comment: Wow, a cliff-hanger ending! I have often thought that the adaptive capacity of natural systems is a kind of learning and so by observing plant and animal behaviour and correlating this with local weather conditions (down to the micro-climatic level) might provide better general prediction methods than you could get from large-scale observations made from satellites. Of course, many of those ecosystems are in a quite severely degraded state so the amount of insight to be had is going to be quite limited, but if we worked on restoring land then in the process new patterns and new adaptive capacities would emerge at the same time.  Subscribe to  Charlotte Moser . 

See the memo  Attack on American Free Enterprise System . The first nine pages describe the "attack" the remaining 26 pages lay out the response. Powell eventually got an appointment to the Supreme Court.  See also  The [1998] Financial Coup d'état Explained With Former US Government Insider Catherine Austin Fitts ,  Alex Krainer on the Economic Outlook  and  Economic Madness .  My comment : I bet the corporations got tax rebates from donations to think tanks too. It's certainly the case now. "Most think tanks in the United States are registered as non-profit organizations under section 501(c)3" according to the onthinktanks organisation.

My comment : 5:23 This is crazy. Any "hard-core nerd" would want to know how they can be sure that that docker image was actually running the verifier and that the verifier hasn't been tampered with somehow, but there is no infrastructure to allow that. Then they would want to know how they can be sure that the Telegram app on their device was actually compiled with that code, and then what does that really tell them about the security of Telegram on their device, because the device may have backdoors. There is no foundation at all in actual knowledge for believing anything about this verification process. And we haven't even discussed the belief in why eliptic curve cryptography is actually secure. Like all other public key cryptographic algorithms it is ultimately based on the absence of knowledge of any feasible way to solve a certain class of equations, and how fo you verify the absence of knowledge?  Subscribe to  Lean FRO .
