For 27 years now @nytimes has been defending and apologizing for the Chavista regime. Their latest article is more of the same. They do not interview any one from the true opposition, supported by 80% of the country, and they do not mention the fact that 30% of the population…

How did we think before words existed? Probably visually since we still do it today. Has our capacity for visual thinking gone down since we replaced it with a monologue? Or has it been enhanced since we see such a complex variety of things today, unimaginable back then?

If Trump frees Venezuela, 50 years from now it will be discussed as one of the most successful geopolitical “incursions” in US history. Venezuela is ready for change. The hate for socialism will last generations. Many will go back hungry to develop. It just needs a nudge.

Information derives from energy; it is only useful to the extent it describes energy fluctuations. Don’t try to understand data, understand energy.

Your periodic reminder that a cow cannot add a single atom of carbon to the atmosphere that wasn't previously removed from the atmosphere by a plant. So, cows cannot increase atmospheric CO2, they merely recycle CO2. It's not a new source of carbon. And without cows, bacteria…

An ability we have mastered is the transfer of information between 2D and 3D. We can turn otherwise meaningless shapes (letters) into 3D models that we can edit at will. An AGI should take a 2D input, turn it into a 3D model, find a similar pattern in a different 3D model, and…

Arguably what separates us the most as humans is being able to think abstractly through space and time. To understand what is, and predict what will be. To control the flows of energy of our surroundings.

Its wild how ignorant most western environmentalists are about the sheer scale of China's ecological impact. This fleet is bigger than some nations and they pick the sea's clean of life but no keep shutting down Nuclear plants in Europe, the real ecological disaster of our time.

Prediction: Conversations with AI's will become content, just as blogs and podcasts are now. The job of the creator will be to manage the flow of conversation, knowing which questions to ask when, which paths to take the discussion to etc. I could see conversations that are…

Advice for dog owners: - Especially if you live in an apt, make sure they have access to a window where they can look out. That is their tv. -For christ sake let them sniff on walks. Even if they want to sniff the same spot for 10 mins, just f let them.

I could see a future where it is the norm that buildings are covered with plants. How can adding life and color to structures be negative.

The agricultural revolution freed our bodies from manual labor and gave us more time and energy to think. The industrial revolution freed our bodies from manual labor and gave us more time and energy to think. The AI revolution will free us from thought labor, and will give us…
