Why I’m leaving politics at Facebook

  Not putting myself in his league (he simpered, lying), but Dante had to finish his Divine Comedy in exile, because he got too caught up in the politics of his day, which compromised his thoughts about the politics of heaven and hell. I attracted a following once, before they met me. Then, despite my bluff bonhomie, they realized that I only needed somewhere between 10 and 100 of words they put on a page to calculate their IQ as Stanford-Binet would measure it. One by one they all realized this and withdrew from me. Understandably, it makes them think that any relationship with me is me using them, women being the sole exception. Which is completely not true. Why? Two reasons. One counterintuitive, one demonstratively proven. First , am I really that smart, able to make such determinations? Yes.  I was bred, born, and raised to be the last great Victorian intellect. Always off the charts, I skipped second grade, had to pass up being enrolled in prep school as a sophomore whe...

The AI Hoax, Part 2

  Lewis Hamilton behind the wheel (the video works… click as YT indicates) Once you watch and think about it, you’ll realize what they misname AI has no place in automobiles. Every aspect of human intelligence and sensory experience is involved in the feat shown above. Not just nanosecond decisions in terms of logic but decisions an order-of-magnitude beyond that primitive level, involving sight, sound, smell, and textile nerve responses in skin, muscles, organs, and bones. The intelligence behind the wheel can move, change and increase its focus’s needed and blend its inputs into the incredibly complex functions of the organ called the brain. No computer, no set of algorithms, no rote responses to some limited set of monitored data can ever reproduce what the driver is doing in this car, on this track or any other track of roadway. QED.

Click the graphic to go right to The Glossary I know there are those out there in the Facebook Universe who do come to look at the longer thought pieces I generally reserve for IPR and other of my websites. The traffic here, by the way, is not chiefly driven by Facebook, which accounts for only 17 percent of the IPR audience. This post, though, is primarily for you FB friends who may want to see one of the taproots of views I regularly express about the UniParty, the decline of the rule of law, the nexus of media and left-leaning government institutions, the assault on Judeo-Christian principles, the abortion debate, and the ongoing war between and among victim classes in the United States of 2023. Now that may sound like a dose of medicine, but it isn’t. The Glossary at Shuteye Nation was a satirical work of a little more than 10,000 words, presented dictionary-style, words and terms in alphabetical order with their definitions. It was written in the year 2000. With the possible excep...
