And the book I suggested about electronics does WHAT?

So do gym shoes with famous basketball players names on them.

Have you heard about that drone attack that the Ukrainians pulled on Russia? Who needs riots? 🤣😂🤣 Neither side seems to advocate mandatory accounting in the schools. Not even for White kids. The DIMocrats and the Repugnacans are both pretty worthless.

Time only moves in one direction, but how much did people understand at the time. 1965 was the last year I went to an auto show. I remember not wanting to go. I finally understood that they were just making useless variations in cars. But how many people don't want to deal with the consequences of that half-a-century after the Moon landing? I was trying to learn about electricity. Didn't know enough to figure out what was a good book. A bit more to be learned about technology now. Why don't we have a K-12 Booklist for Black kids. To hell with what the haoles do? Teach Yourself Electricity and Electronics by Stan Gibilisco .

DJT is too stupid to predict the consequences of his mindless actions. If what Ukraine is saying is true, Zelensky knew about the plan to attack Russian bombers when he met with Trump while the idiot told him he had no cards. Trump hardly has any idea what is going on and no one outside of the country with any sense will tell him. He has surrounded himself with nitwits almost as dumb as he is. .

What did I ever say about a conspiracy or conspiracy theory regarding any people doing anything to destroy the buildings? .

You will have a pretty hard time finding any cases of steel frame buildings that stood for more than a year that collapsed due to fire. And you can find some pretty big fires. The only Three seemed to happen that day. Have you tried finding the distribution of steel for any of those buildings? I have not found it for any skyscraper. That is why I mention the Eiffel 🗼 Tower. The obvious is obvious.

I am biased, Obviously! 🤣 But I do not regard it as circling back. To me it is an unresolved physics problem. High school kids should have expected a reasonable answer by 2003. An Answer not a Belief! A 1959 IBM C.A.D.E.T. computer was used to do the calculations for the structural steel. Can you imagine how powerful an iPhone is compared to a 1959 minicomputer? (Of course I am being blasphemous since IBM did not allow the word minicomputer when I was there. 🤣) David Chandler is the only high school physics teacher I know of to get involved. He used video to prove that the first 2.5 seconds of the WTC7 collapse was freefall. He forced the NIST to concede. But this is a Social-Psychological issue on a massive scale. The nation that put men on the Moon and has hundreds of skyscrapers across the country cannot talk about the distribution of steel down a couple of skyscrapers. There is an inherent problem here. .

They might have to investigate why they did not ask such a simple question 20 years ago.

@michaelemann.bsky.social has blocked you for the following post on BlueSky. LOL It is approaching 24 years since 9/11. Why are we supposed to respect scientists if they won't ask about & discuss the distribution of steel down the Twin Towers? Even a microbiologist should be able to figure out that skyscrapers must have more steel toward the bottom. Eiffel 🗼 Tower !?!?! 🤣😂🤣 🧐

Actually I have encountered it quite often. People with nothing of substance to say but trying to be insulting with what l regard as trivia. 😅

What percentage of the population is THAT? I am not inclined to engage about trivia. .

I have acquired a critic on another site. [Quote] For there to be perceivable factual errors, it must actually contain some coherent communicated point. It nowhere near amounts to being wrong considering it is illegible nonsense. I can emulate it to give you some insight if you're this lacking in self-awareness? Or I can give you some more general critiques until you can get your shit together and say something meaningful? Tonal discrepancies: your post reads like a somewhat disjointed spoken commentary rather than a written argument. It jumps between historical figures, terms, and events with minimal transitions and for no apparent reason - like you're name-dropping without really knowing much about the people. Similarly, despite apparently trying to write in an authoritative and definitive manner, the sum of the clutter is that it's speculative and suggestive, rather than being a structured argument or a thesis that can be disputed. Lack of coherence and structure: Each paragraph jumps freely around between topics, like free-association rather than cogent point. Many things that are referred to such as Marx’s terminology, the Depression, GNP, Keynes, FDR are just tossed into the mix without clear transitions or connective logic. It's more like a collage of ideas you pinned to the same board by chance, rather than with any intent. Unclear thesis: It's not just not clear what you're trying to argue or conclude; it's completely absent any salient point. Is it about the evolution of economic definitions? The shortcomings of classical economics? The emergence of planned obsolescence? I doubt you know, frankly, or else you wouldn't have considered it worthy not just to write, but then to cite yourself as if you were some kind of expert. Unsubstantiated claims: There certainly are some questionable details you have presented as fact such as FDR's dismissal of Keynes or the timing of fiscal stimulus. Outdated or useless language: Phrases like “many things which consumers buy today that depreciate did not exist when Marx was alive” are vague. What things? Why on Earth is it relevant? Non-sequiturs: "Karl Marx used the word 'depreciation' 35 times in the first two volumes of Das Kapital. But Marx died in 1883." If you slap words on a piece of paper at random, the world will similarly be unable to point out any false claims you made - being unintelligible is a kind of proof against being shown wrong, I guess... but you still remain incoherent and thus fail to get any message across.

There is really no such thing as Freedom, there is only POWER and the lack thereof. If we have electrical devices in our homes don't we have to consume electrical power from whoever is supplying it? Water, food, who "owns"/controls the land? We don't seem to cooperate enough to have much power.

How much economic freedom do Black Americans have? Consumerism is going into debt for junk designed to become obsolete.

Wake, Watch, Wonder trilogy by Robert J Sawyer 2009 The trilogy follows Caitlin Decter, a brilliant young blind teenager whose disability is more of a benefit when surfing the Internet. A Japanese researcher offers Caitlin the ability to gain her sight via a revolutionary new implant, an offer she eagerly accepts. However, she's surprised when rather than showing her the ordinary world, Caitlin is now able to see the Internet and all it has to offer her. She comes across Webmind, a self-aware consciousness that is growing and evolving through the Internet. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/WWW_Trilogy 30 years after Two Faces. Just noticed that. .

Anybody ordered the book, Two Faces of Tomorrow, yet?

Blocked by another economist on BlueSky. Should I try a different deodorant? He's got way more followers than me. I haven't even reached 1000. It must be that degree thing. I never should have dropped out. .

At what point does political theater change politics. Lincoln was a Republican not a Repugnacan!

You expect her to remove them from power? And if she doesn't do that it is just theater?

Really? A better source? Did the events in the previous vid links not happen?

The zingers are surely flying!
