      summary - This is a good article that explains the rational behind a number of Silicon Valley actors such as Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Sam Altman and others who subscribe to a toxic and dystopian mix of: - Longterminism - Libertarianism - Accelerationism - In order to understand the actions of the tech bros, it is key to understand their modus operandi

    2. As fervent believers in Longterminism, the Silicon Valley elites are not interested in the current multiple crises of our societies. On the contrary, through their social media platforms, Zuckerberg and Musk even instigate further polarization. Climate change, inequality, erosion of democracy – who cares? What counts is the far away future, not the present. Their greatest fear is not the collapse of our climate or the mass extinction of animals – they are haunted by the nightmare of AI taking over control. This would spoil their homo deus party. AI in control doesn’t need humans anymore.

    2. There was a lot of conversation at the time around a leaderless movement. But I know at least in the activist scene in New York, what we talked about was building leader-full movements, about the idea that we don't want to step away from power, but instead, as people with a vision for the future of America, we want to step into power.

      for - occupy - leaderless vs leader-full movement

    3. I remember being in discussions with various Occupy people at various sites, in which I would say, "Well, what's the next political move?" Or, "How do we, or how are you thinking about structuring this?" Or, "What's the strategy?" and there would be silence, there's no strategy.

    4. If it had merged in some possible manner with the Occupy movement, and if the Tea Party movement hadn't been co-opted by big money, by the Koch Brothers, by others in the Republican right, maybe we could have seen the beginnings of almost a third party movement in America

      for - quote - Robert Reich - tea party - occupy

    5. They were also outraged on the right. And that outrage on the right took the form of the Tea Party movement. What amazed me at the time, Kara, was that the Tea Party movement and the Occupy movement used such similar language. They talked about crony capitalism, corporate welfare. They didn't want a big government and big corporations colluding against everyone else.

      for - similiarities - tea party - occupy

    6. One of the biggest lessons of the Occupy movement was that you can't only have a demonstration. Demonstrations are great. Demonstrations are important to bring attention to certain critical issues. But if you lack mobilization and organization and a political strategy, then you're just basically engaging in a performative act. You're indulging in a performance. You aren't really changing the course of history.

    7. When we think about why it happened, my assessment is the financial crisis, the Wall Street bailout really catapulted a lot of energy and a lot of outrage because the banks got bailed out, a lot of people -- millions of people -- lost their jobs, their homes, their savings, and not a single CEO of any big Wall Street bank went to jail, and people were outraged.

      question - intention - as stretching out - I don't understand how intention can be described as stretching out. I understand it as having a goal or purpose - Stretching out is perhaps alluding to a FUTURE action - to get hold of something you don't presently have so you are stretching out - Perhaps more of a literal hand movement - stretching out your hand to get something you don't currently have - whereas stretching towards is alluding more to something in the present, although it seems they can both be used interchangeably for reaching for an object not currently in your possession: - the baby stretched his hand towards the apple - the baby stretched out his hands to grasp the apple

      for - three simplifying strategies

      three simplifying strategies - MATHEMATICS / QUANTIFICATION - counting - When you count a series of objects, there is an underlying assumption of a simplification and abstraction of reality that eliminates all the variability that is present in real systems in nature - This is especially true in biology - To count "objects you are making the assumption that the similarities between them are what matters and you can ignore the differences that are usually there - So in applying the most basic ideas of mathematics, counting, we are already making a big assumption that abstracts away a lot of natural variability - statistics - once again, a lot of variability is simply bypassed - - - REDUCTION - studying a part of a living system in isolation of the living system - in vitro instead of - in vivo - We reduce the number of natural variables by restricting to an artificial lab environment - Processes can work well within the non-natural, highly constrained test environment but the results may not match with the same process in the natural environment when all the natural variability is present - ANALOGIES / METAPHORS

      definition - haptic realism - Mazviita Chirimuuta - While mainstream scientific realism suggests that if a scientific theory is mature and supported by strong empirical evidence, then that scientific representation can be taken as the literal truth of how things exactly are. - In contrast, haptic realism, as the name "haptic" suggests, holds that the observer (human agent) through human touching / sensing of the aspect of nature studied plays an important role in contributing to the scientific representation. - In other words, the observer cannot simply be ignored and scientific truth has a kind of built-in degree of constructivism and relativism that depends on the perspectival frame of the observer - The many processes that occur when scientists are generating their theories creates simplifying models that strip away the complexities of reality but can be characterized by one perspective view - The scientist is situated and has his/her own unique - Lebenswelt (lifeworld), - perspective - instrumentation - narrative - to the observation and theoretical construction of the measured / observed data - But this is only one of many potential constructions - In this sense, haptic realism considers that the "objective" scientific reality is a partnership between - that which is observed - the modality of observing (instrumentation, techniques) - the linguistic words and constructed narratives using those words

    2. So what is the central meaning of the word ‘reflexive’ in ‘reflexive moderniz- ation’? 4 ‘Reflexive’ does not mean that people today lead a more conscious life. On the contrary. ‘Reflexive’ signifies not an ‘increase of mastery and consciousness, but a heightened awareness that mastery is impossible’ (Latour, 2003).

It makes a lot of sense to have this different strategy of being rooted in the real physical world and have digital nomads being as like a guild of knowledge workers that seed their specialized knowledge because localism is necessary and good, but it's also not necessarily very innovative.

It's just a bunch of people. Globally, what if there are 12,000 of them? What if they have a common social power, like common property that can help the nodes individually?

      // - comment - Paul provides a climate analysis of the overarching climate conditions that enabled the 2025 Los Angeles fires - The Santa Ana winds are a natural occurrence in this area but the climate change induced abnormalities have brought about alternating cycles of heavy rain and drought conditions - The preceding heavy rain period resulted in enormous growth of vegetation - The last two months of extreme drought conditions dried up all this additional growth creating enormous amounts of fuel for a fire - It was interesting to learn that cold air from the arctic plays a critical role in the Santa Ana winds, but Paul did not provide an explanation - This is one example of how the earth system is so interconnected

    1. Sacredness puts us into contact with the Numinous, which basically exposes us to what is horrifying. At least at the limits of us, because it has an aspect of awe with a little bit more which is to remind us - humiliation in the original sense of the word - to keep us, to give us humility to remember that as we are feeling that sense of expansiveness with awe that we are precisely, ultimately, limited creatures

    11. NO! You didn't get me because (changes Framing to another Framed and draws another arrow outside the bigger box, connecting to it) what's outside here still is… what is framing that? You cannot have this… You can't have it as a focal object. It is mysterious. It is phenomenologically mysterious. James pointed to this in a wonderful distinction between the I and the Me (I: Me).

    14. the death example actually points to something more primordial! It points to the fact that I can never make a focal object of my framing, my capacity for Relevance Realization.

But wait, I'm still there in the dark room. There's the hereness and the nowness… Oh well, then I'm nowhere!
