ርሑስ በዓል ልደት Ruhus Be’al Lidet, or, in other words: Merry Christmas. i.e. when it has to do with iyesus’ birth not overlaying onto a pagan winter solstice ritual (the “j” came in the middle ages). which script looks older to you, the one based on ge’ez above or greek or hebrew? ASKING FOR A FRIEND.

THINK FOR YOURSELF (EVEN IT FEELS WEIRD): “Once you let other people do your thinking for you, your single most valuable asset—your intellectual independence—is impaired. And once you lose part of your sense of self, losing financial wealth won’t be far behind. By the time you recognise you lost the ability to think for yourself, it will be too late. A single exposure to an opinion from someone described as an expert enhances your memory of the information and how favorably you view it. And agreeing with your peers or with purported experts will activate the same regions of the brain that process the anticipation of reward. The more people “like” a post on social media, the higher the odds that you will like it as well. “Liking” a post already liked by lots of other people activates a key reward center in the human brain more intensely than liking a less popular post. Meanwhile, bucking the consensus engages circuits in the brain that generate pain, fear, anxiety, and disgust. The larger the group, the more painful standing alone becomes. Worse, the algorithms embedded in social-media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and TikTok…are an invisible but pervasive force field that pulls you away from thinking for yourself.” Jason Zweig, excerpts, p. 124-131 in The Intelligent Investor, B. Graham, 75th anniversary edition.

Trump doesn't place hand on Bible during swearing-in

President Donald Trump didn't place his hand on the Bible as he took the oath of office on Monday.

Basically, the men I listed in the previous post are not business leaders, they are brokers. And they are selling a security I own without a brokerage agreement with me. As I can not sell my own social security number or whatever of my own data points, the same way I can not sell a security as I do not have a license to do so (I sell or buy through a brokerage firm) it means I need or have a right to a broker to sell on my behalf. If a broker is selling a security I own without an agreement they are operating illegally. And do not come to me complaining about t’s & c’s. Why do you think the t’s & c’s are hundreds of pages long? Because there are that many holes to fill. If there are so many holes, it means they can’t statistically fill all of them. If they could fill all of them, there would never be any litigation, which there is, and sometimes they lose despite the encyclopedia of t’s & c’s. I do not care what I checked in order to participate. Believe me, there is a hole. Judges are biased so it is not even necessary to have a clever lawyer; it is only necessary to have a lawyer the judge respects. Judges aren’t for the most part mentally disciplined enough to judge arguments they side with the mouth they prefer not the words. Pick the right mouth.

Mark Zuckerburg owes me money, Sam Altman owes me money, Peter Thiel owes me money, Alex Fried Karp for dinner owes me money, and a lot of low-lying data grifters owe me a mega ton of money. MY DATA IS MY CAPITAL, and if you can sell it, it means I OWN IT.

that’s great but if data is capital, then MY DATA IS MY CAPITAL, and if a company or individual sold my capital without my awareness or permission, I AM OWED.

THINKING ABOUT THINKING IN BETS given that i happen to be reading annie duke’s “thinking in bets” rn—duke refers to a study, and the reasoning is not that prediction betting makes for truth: “I’ll admit to (embarrassingly) being a bit of a sucker for the idea of the “truth machine” that these prediction market companies are trying to hold onto. Mansour wasn’t wrong when he recently described prediction markets as offering reporters “a tool, a stock, or a ticker or a market . . . a number now to all of these things that they’re talking about.” it’s that putting up money or betting may reduce confirmatory bias or “motivated reasoning” which we unconsciously rely on when decision making—for lack of a better word: ‘groupthink’—which unfortunately happens even to judges & scientists (thinking along party lines). (she still had a stop loss rule as a poker player: leave the game if you are losing more than $600; i am not sure if she’ll address addiction in the book, as i am not finished yet.) point being: gambling does not make for better or more truthful thinking, but, i see why it could shut a lot of opinionated mouths.
