Apple Vision Pro's a Prelude to...
Apple Reveals Its Vision Pro Mixed-Reality Headset, Starting At $3,499!Created to support both AR and VR applications, the Vision Pro is a standalone headset featuring an innovative design without the need for a dedicated controller. Instead, thanks to the use of multiple external and internal sensors and cameras, Apple is planning to rely entirely on voice i...worldstar.comBefore you go wow, just keep in mind that everything is a milestone to something else. In the case of Apple's 'Vision Pro', it is a prelude to an implant in your head. Once people get used to this, they will just love to have this on them at all times, in their forehead perhaps, like Revelations has accurately prophesised. And that's when you are truly connected for control, and disconnected from whom you truly can be, especially if you are 'connected' from childhood. Can you imagine if one is disconnected from...
Bud Light In The Age Of Scientific Marketing
By now, nearly everyone is familiar with the incredible debacle of the sales and marketing group at Anheuser Busch. It has been the lead story for weeks and involves an advertising campaign featuring a Transsexual spokesperson. More recently, another major US Corporation, Target, has found itself embroiled in a similar predicament over the feature of transsexual items in the children's section of their stores.What is impressive is how these two giant corporations, both of whom build their franchise by catering to the whims and wishes of the American Public, got it so wrong. They misjudged how a majority felt about sexual identity. Both Busch and Target had hit the public's "hot button," assuming that the public would support these campaigns when they have recently created a couple of the most significant backlashes in public opinion.These two missteps become even more remarkable when...
The Freedom Diagram
The Freedom DiagramDear friends,It seems to me, there are three types of economic organization, or so we are told, two of them, communism and socialism are oligarchic in nature, while actual free enterprise is polity in action. If we diagram systems of government on two axis, the vertical one having freedom at the top and totalitarianism at the bottom, and the horizontal line having populism on the right and elitism on the left… almost every government that has existed has been in the lower left quadrant. Even the government of the US Founding Fathers. The government and the resulting economic system they created, and Adam Smith explained, was in the upper right of the lower left quadrant. All the others, socialism, communism, feudalism, etc… exist at the extreme bottom left corner.Aristotle said there are three right forms of government, three wrong forms and an ideal form. In his...
Allyson and Education
On May 31st, 2023, the New York Times published an opinion piece about Mississippi's stunning improvement in literacy over the last decade or so:Mississippi Is Offering Lessons for America on Educationhttps://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/31/opinion/mississippi-education-poverty.htmlWith an all-out effort over the past decade to get all children to read by the end of third grade and by extensive reliance on research and metrics, Mississippi has shown that it is possible to raise standards even in a state ranked dead last in the country in child poverty and hunger and second highest in teen births.This is laudable of course. It demonstrates that throwing more money at a problem like education is not always the answer. What works much better is to spend resources judiciously and carefully. The US spends more on education per student per year than almost any other locale on earth, but gets...
Discarded? Maybe?
Age affords me an encyclopedia of knowledge and experience that I can draw upon and apply to any situation that may present itself. Even for those challenges that may seem incongruent with my background, I am able to pull through with a plan to at least gain some momentum. For those things that are known, AI will dominate the landscape since the knowledge is already present. AI simply allows a method, regardless of articulation of a coherent or accurate question, to obtain said knowledge and move forward. Where AI fails, is to mimic the human ability to extrapolate the realized outlier conditions and form a plan to blindly navigate a path towards a solution or a completely new horizon. This, of course, is inextricably dependent around self-awareness or perception of oneself.Self-awareness is an animal unto itself. It requires a level of perception of self into deep levels of...
The one thing that unite everyone.
As far as i can tell, and i been searching for “the exceptions that prove the rule” without finding it, the only thing everyone agree upon is that less consumtion is not on the table.It’s actually quite amusing to see how humans silently agree to avoid topics that could affect our personal comfort while the elephants stands waving their trunks furiously in the middle of the room.
