Autonomous cars are here! Or almost here. What we can say for certain that in the next decades the technology will be in a place where autonomous cars will be safer then human driven cars. The economic ramifications of this are huge! Layoffs in the trucking, mechanics, taxi and insurance sectors. Maybe even in the hospitality sector. The real question is will regulators allow this to happen? Expect anti autonomous car campaigns.

Here is an unpopular opinion. This is not innatly bd. Hear me out. There are situations when you do need to identify someone per se. This is usually in government cases. We don't want to jail the wrong person or to prohibited the wrong person from flying. We want to make sure A person who votes has a right to vote and votes only once. A biological ID is very helpful in these cases. There can be a case for a biological ID in the financial sphere. Biological ID's that can be recreated prevent key lost. What we need, for freedom to exist, is to separate these two spheres. Gov. will be not allowed to store a financial ID and vice versa. What we are missing is the concept of privacy as a human right enshrined by a constitution. To get that we need a philosophical revolution. To make people understand the importance of rights and why privacy is an essential right. This is a fight of ideas. Not a fight about technology. View quoted note →

This is why we need #nostr The person calling for eliminating free speech is the head of Israel's socialist party. They call themselves "The democrats" #israel #freespeech

Technology isn't the answer. Bitcoin won't free you. What we need is a philosophical revolution. To change the way people in the USA think. Ayn Rand got it. Charlie Kirk got it. Even the left understood that. That is why they hated Charlie so much. That is why they murdered him. But that is the way. If we want to win our freedom back. #aynrand #objectivism View article →

I wonder why the assassination of Cjarlie Kirk hit me so hard. I never met the man. Never spoke with him. Still, I feel saddnes that he is gone. I think that it has to do with the decency, paitcan and respect he treated everyone. Even his greatest opponents. We saw him and recognized the value in him. We wanted to imitate him. That is why the left murdered him. For their violence to be acceptable, respect and decency cannot exist. #charlie #turningpoint

"Meat Protects Against Cancer" A study suggests. Naturaly the article writer couldn't just leave it a t that and had to add some criticism. "By grouping all animal proteins together, the study may have captured the protective effects of fish and certain dairy products rather than proving the safety of red meat." Either way, being a vegan is unhealthy.
