This is the path to a lasting peace:

You can stage your show elections. I will ignore them. You can keep your oligarchy. I will keep my guns. And I will not consider giving them back until you willfully dismantle your oligarchy so I donโ€™t have to shoot you one day. Your fear will guide your actions to ensure things never get so bad as to provoke a revolt, and we all live peacefully and happily ever after.
Technological means to prevent encroachments are the only things that actually work. When we get practical teleportation and invisibility is when their power is totally shattered. I see great things in the future on all these fronts.

Provably bounding the erdos number here (and the technique used) will likely crack some other longstanding problems. I like it.

Sanctions policy and Quarantine policy over the last 2 years have dynamited the international division of labor. Huge amounts of effort will have to be expended producing things domestically at lower efficiencies than we could by leveraging international specialization. This is without much labor slack and a declining workforce. I see no indication that policymakers are anything but clueless fools who don't even understand the first thing about how mutually beneficial exchange works. They will also continue to exacerbate problems with their deranged obsession with reducing energy usage (and thereby crippling productivity).

If so, a Guanosinine inhibitor would likely be an effective therapy.

Makes you think that "Uncle Ted was right" in some ways -- A society below a certain IQ & Eductaion level will never do the right thing with abstractions such as currency. They need "the real thing" -- something concrete. Yet another feather in Gold's Cap.

Of course they don't take the obvious conclusion and understand that Christ solves this. The deranged search for sacrifices in the social climber game need not be played at all, ye debased sinners.

Wikipedia's Trudge into Hell is complete: Bureaucratic Coup edition ๐Ÿ”— 1651959706  


โ€ฆit is proving increasingly hard to become a Wikipedia administrator: 2,700 candidates were nominated between 2001 and 2008, with a success rate of 53%. The rate has dropped from 75.5% until 2005 to 42% in 2006 and 2007. Article contribution was not a strong predictor of success. The most successful candidates were those who edited the Wikipedia policy or project space; such an edit is worth ten article edits.

What sort of editor, with a universe of fascinating topics to write upon, would choose to spend most of his time on the policy namespace? What sort of editor would choose to stop writing articles?โ โ 34 Administrators with minimal experience in creating contentโ€”and much experience in destroying it and rewriting the rules to permit the destruction of even more. Is this not almost the opposite of what one wants? And imagine how the authors must feel! An article is not a trivial undertaking; sometime sit down, select a random subject, and try to write a well-organized, fluent, comprehensive, and accurate encyclopedia article on it. Itโ€™s not as easy as it looks, and itโ€™s even harder to write a well-referenced and correctly formatted one. To have an article deleted is bad enough; I canโ€™t imagine any neophyte editors wanting to have anything to do with Wikipedia if an article of theirs got railroaded through AfD. It is easier to destroy than to create, and destruction is infectious. (In the study Thurner et al 2012 of 3.3 years of the online SF game Pardusโ , players were found to โ€˜pay it forwardโ€™ when the subject of negative actions; the community was only saved from an epidemic of attacks by the high mortality & quitting rate of negative editorsโ€”I mean, negative playersโ โ .)

Deleting articles and piling on policy after guideline after policy are both directly opposed to why Wikipedians contribute!

The "plutocracy" he describes is just a stateless order, e.g. not perfect but better than all the other alternatives.

His insight that the woke borg came to be thanks to the squeaky wheel getting the oil is right on the money.
The "Single elimination ass-kissing tournament" in corporate and the bureaucracy is what creates this dynamic.
Fix that, and you basically fix most of the problems.
