Veganism has been cool for a very long time.  Indeed, the lies on 
saturated fat were manufactured back in the forties to give "scientific" 
endorsement to veganism, much as the lies on anthropogenic global 
warming were manufactured to give "scientific" endorsement to demonizing 
the technological and industrial civilization that white people created.


Indeed, veganism has recently ceased to be cool, has fallen out of 
fashion, which made it possible for scientists to notice that saturated 
fat is actually rather healthy.


The next fashion is going to be buying a young pig, killing it oneself, 
washing it down with caustic potash to remove the hair, shaving it 
oneself, gutting it oneself, and throwing a big party around the intact 
pig, with head and legs all together so it still looks like an animal, 
roasting on a spit over hot coals.  For organic trendiness, everyone 
will have lots of ice cold extra fizzy recently fermented high alcohol 
Kombucha while waiting for the roasting to finish and the pig to be 
served, plus some beer, coke and mountain dew for those who are not so 
trendy.


Further, there are no strict vegans, only vegans that eat vegetables 
plus milk, cheese, and eggs. The strict vegans are just status 
posturing.  Strict veganism will make you sick or kill you, and will 
result in an uncontrollable raging hunger for steak, bacon, fried 
chicken, and so on and so forth.  Humans are obligate omnivores.  We 
don't have to eat veggies, though it is difficult to go without.  We do 
have to eat animals, or at least eat milk, cheese, and eggs in place of 
animals.  It is impossible to go without.


I do *not* support any death.  And, sorry, if you were not informed 
about it, the life of cows, pigs, chickens, cats, dogs, koalas, and 
several other animals, is *not* more important than *any human life*, 
including yours.


And yet you appear to believe, and enthusiastically endorse, tall tales 
that, if true, would justify killing me, and indeed killing Christians, 
whites, and males, would make killing me, people like me, and people 
vaguely resembling me, justifiable self defense.


Presumably you would not oppose killing a mad dog that was attacking 
you, and you identify noticing politically incorrect facts about reality 
as being a mad dog who attacks you, and declare that Christians, whites,

No you don't say "Kill Jim".  You say you are terribly sad that I have

We have multiple independent sources suggestive of a holiness spiral in 
Judaism at the time, consistent with the account given by Josephus and 
in the gospels.


When the area was ruled by Greeks, the Jewish hereditary priesthood led 
a revolt against Greek secularism and established a dynasty of priest kings.


The rabbis (pharisees) challenged the power of the hereditary 
priesthood, on the basis of being holier than thou, and part of being 
holier than thou was being more willing to get into suicidal war with 
powerful enemies, just as today's progressives are flirting with nuclear 
armageddon.


The hereditary priesthood had led the Jews into a war with powerful 
enemies (Greeks) and won, so the Rabbis wanted to lead the Jews into an 
even bigger war with even more powerful enemies (Romans plus Greeks 
under Roman leadership) and win.


Now that the formerly communist regimes have turned right wing, progs 
are today the war party.  Similarly, rabbis were the war party back in 
the days of Jesus and Josephus, hence the prophecies of Jesus about the 
fall of Jerusalem and the temple.


Thus we know from other sources that events must have been much as 
depicted by Jesus and Josephus.


You suggest that Josephus made up the story of being forced to suicide 
to justify his betrayal of his comrades, but we have independent 
evidence that his comrades murdered everyone, Khmer Rouge style, as over 
the top fanaticism spiraled into even further over the top fanaticism. 
If they did not attempt to force Josephus to suicide, they forced 
everyone like him to suicide.

JESUS CHRIST - NO HISTORICAL EVIDENCE

IN ONE OF THE MOST CAREFULLY DOCUMENTED PERIODS OF ROMAN AND ANCIENT
HISTORY
The time that Jesus Christ supposedly existed is one the most heavily
documented periods in ancient history.  Yet there is virtually zero
historical evidence of his supposed existence in any contemporary
historical record.  It is also important to understand that an absolute
reign of terror was instituted when Christianity seized power in the
Roman Empire as documented in our Christian Totalitarianism Report.
The Church appointed an official historian of dubious ethics, Eusebius,
to write an official history.  Meanwhile, Christian launched the
largest book burning campaign in history, destroying a vast part of the
wisdom and history of the ancient world forever.

The Account of Josephus is a Fraud

When discussing the alleged existence of Jesus Christ, one piece of
"evidence" that frequently gets mentioned is the account of Flavius
Josephus, the famed Jewish general and historian who lived from 37 to
100 C.E. In Josephus's Antiquities of the Jews there is a notorious
passage regarding Christ called the "Testimonium Flavium."

"Now, there was about this time, Jesus, a wise man, if it be lawful to
call him a man, for he was a doer of wonderful works,--a teacher of
such men as receive the truth with pleasure. He drew over to him both
many of the Jews, and many of the Gentiles. He was [the] Christ; and
when Pilate, at the suggestion of the principal men amongst us, had
condemned him to the cross, those that loved him at the first did not
forsake him, for he appeared to them alive again the third day, as the
divine prophets had foretold these and ten thousand other wonderful
things concerning him; and the tribe of Christians, so named from him,
are not extinct at this day." (Whitson, 379).

This brief piece of evidence which supposedly contributed the best
"proof" of Jesus's existence has actually been proven to be a fraud. It
has been demonstrated continuously over the centuries that "Testamonium
Flavium" was a forgery manufactured by the Catholic Church, and was
inserted into Josephus's works. The Testamonium Flavium account is so
thoroughly refuted, that biblical scholars since the 19th century have
refused to refer to it, unless to mention its false nature.

Dr. Gordon Stein gives a further explanation for this forgery. The
History of Jesus: A Reply to Josh McDowell.

Another source is The Jesus Forgery: Josephus Untangled.

First Written Accounts of Jesus's Life Occur Decades After His
Purported Existence

Most written accounts of the life of Jesus did not exist until a couple
decades after his purported existence. These accounts were presented by
a number of different authors and had somewhat conflicting stories
about his existence. These written accounts are known as the Gospels.
Also, it is worth knowing that not all of the gospels that were written
even made their way into the bible. Only four gospels became the
canonical writings for the church. The rest were burned, destroyed or
lost. Historians estimate that the first written gospel, the gospel of
Mark, was written sometime after 70 C.E, which means that at the
earliest, it would have been written 40 years after the alleged
crucifixion of Jesus.


We can be sure that all four primary gospels were written before 70 C.E, 
because Jesus' prophecies concerning the fall of Jerusalem and the 
temple were vague, shifty, evasive and unfalsifiable, even though it was 
obvious at the time that the wind was blowing towards suicidal and self 
destructive war with the Roman empire

Shortly before the fall of Jerusalem, Christians did get specific and

be a weatherman to see which way the wind was blowing) and those more 
concrete prophecies were not misattributed to Jesus.

You are a liar and a fool.

The contemporary evidence for Pontius Pilate is exactly the same as the 
contemporary evidence for Jesus.  Josephus was there, and he mentions 
both of them.


Further, it is obvious that someone resembling Pontius Pilate had to 
exist, because the Roman Empire dominated that region, and it is obvious 
that prophets resembling Jesus the man had to exist, because the rabbis 
were in a holiness spiral, prophets would have condemned this, and would 
have been executed for condemning it.

Irrespective of whether Jesus did in fact show up after his death, he is 
reported as showing up after his death, thus it is likely that his

for the Romans, causing Roman historians unaware that he had been

high against middle, and alliance of far against near, and this alliance 
is run by white people, as is obvious from photographs of the 
"hispanics" exercising power in that alliance.  When you take over that 
alliance, when high gets full of people affirmative actioned into 
positions of power, you will wind up eating the people who organized 
your alliance, eating those few remaining (mostly Jewish) democrats who 
are still competent.   Brown Berniedette will eat the Clintons and Bernie.


When the decadent Spanish let south America go, it fell apart, and order 
was restored by the power of the USA, and to a lesser extent by Soviet 
power.  If the confederacy had won the war of Northern Aggression, it 
then would have replaced the Spaniards in South America.


All wars are white on white wars.  Whites fight over other peoples, not 
with them.  Only the East Asians are competent in war, and they are 
still nowhere near as good at it as whites.  The Vietnam war was not 
really whites versus East Asians, it was really the blue empire of the 
consulates versus the red empire of the bases.  The Vietnamese were 
Soviet proxies, and the Soviets were blue empire proxies.  Without 
Soviet backing, State Department backing, and Democratic Party backing, 
the Vietnamese would have been toast.


So bring it on.  It will end the way it did last time.

JESUS CHRIST - NO HISTORICAL EVIDENCE

IN ONE OF THE MOST CAREFULLY DOCUMENTED PERIODS OF ROMAN AND ANCIENT
HISTORY
The time that Jesus Christ supposedly existed is one the most heavily
documented periods in ancient history.  Yet there is virtually zero
historical evidence of his supposed existence in any contemporary
historical record. 


We have almost as much evidence for the existence of Jesus the man as we 
have for Pontius Pilate.


Are you going to concluder that Romans had no one ruling Israel at the time?

Granted, if he was God, you would expect him to have substantially more 
impact than Pontius Pilate, but he generated as much historical records 
as one would expect of yet another prophet and trouble maker in Israel.

Related directed graph problem: Google trying to distinguish real links 
from networks of fake websites giving links to each other.


Suppose you have an undirected graph in which every vertex is connected 
to at least three other vertexes (because we collapse vertices with only 
one connection or two connections)


Now suppose we want to make sure that the total graph is well connected 
- that every subgraph is connected to at least three vertexes of the 
rest of the graph.  We want to collapse subgraphs that are only 
connected to the rest of the graph by one connection into the vertex by 
which they are connected, and collapse subgraphs that are only connected 
to rest of the graph by two connections into a single edge.


And suppose our graph is very large, thousands, perhaps millions, of 
vertices


Purported peers that have only one connection are clients of the entity 
to which they are connected, and he is responsible for their good 
behavior, similarly those that have only two connections.  Three good 
peer connections make you a peer of all the other peers, two good 
connections do not make you a peer - don't get equal treatment to the 
vertices by which you are connected, get graylist treatment.

Needs to be a communication and blogging system, like steemit.

crypto currency

[James A. Donald]

Money, says Moldbug, is a bubble that never bursts, until it does.

A very long time ago, all sorts of strange things, such as dog canine 
teeth, were money.


It came to pass that only silver and gold were money.

And then only gold.  The demonetization of silver gave us the long 
depression, which by modern standards was not bad at all - because it 
was long, gold rose, which is to say prices fell, very slowly, because 
silver was demonetized very slowly.  People did not like it, hence the 
"cross of gold speech" demanding that state power be applied to 
remonetize silver, but all the supposed horrid evils of deflation turned 
out to be not very evil at all.


From time to time governments discover that they can make some 
arbitrary thing money by the mere exercise of power.   This usually ends 
horribly badly.


Right now we have the disturbing and strange situation that it is hard 
for savers to receive positive real interest on their money, and at the 
same time hard for worthy borrowers to borrow money.  The system is 
malfunctioning rather badly, but monetary systems have frequently 
malfunctioned one hell of a lot worse, so I will not bother explaining 
why we are in this hole. (tl; dr; Governments did wicked, but extremely 
popular, things with money.  To the surprise of many people, myself 
among them, this did not destroy the currency, but it had other 
extremely bad effects.)


Because of governments doing bad things with money, the thought occurred 
to some people: maybe private individuals, not armed with state power, 
could make some arbitrary thing power.

Re: [Cryptography] actual journalism, was LRB article, Satoshi's Trump Card

Confused by this - Merkle trees inherently don't grow to enormous depth.


I am pretty sure that if I give a definition and say "A Merkle tree is 
such and such", a bikeshed war will ensue over my definition of Merkle 
tree, which war will probably result in Perry blocking my posts.


So let me define instead a donald tree.   :-)  (just kidding)

A donald tree is a tree where every node contains the hash of its 
immediate children.  Thus the hash of the root of any subtree guarantees 
the contents of all its descendants, just as the hash of a file 
guarantees the contents of the entire file.


This means that we can keep on adding to the tree, while keeping the 
past immutable, which is a useful feature for tracking who owns what, 
and who owes what.  If many people see the current hash at time X, you 
cannot change details about the past of time X without revealing what 
you have been up to.


Any tree can be severely unbalanced, for example a binary tree where 
every node has a right hand child, and very few nodes have a left hand 
child, in which case the depth of the tree is approximately proportional 
to the total number of nodes in the tree - and the tree grows to 
enormous depth when the total number of node is enormous.


Or it can be approximately balanced, in which case the depth of the tree 
is approximately proportional to the log of the number of nodes, which 
is always a reasonably small number even if the number of nodes is enormous.


And a hash that testifies to every transaction that anyone ever did is 
going to be the hash of an enormous number of nodes.  But if it is at 
the root of a tree of moderate depth, then we can validate any part of 
the tree for conformity with the rules without validating the entire 
tree for conformity to the rules.

The courts are no substitute for a disciplined police force - it is 
easier for judges to get away with wicked, abusive, and corrupt behavior 
than it is for police.  As for example patent law and the silicone lawsuits.


The various protections for criminals are part of an endless effort to 
get black conviction and imprisonment rates down to white levels, thus 
in practice these protections apply to black criminals, not to law 
abiding cishet whites.  Consider, for example the conviction of Martha 
Stewart, supposedly for insider trading - but what she was actually 
convicted of was obstruction of justice, which she obstructed by not 
confessing to things that they they could not prove her guilty of.


She sold a bunch of shares just before bad news hit, which is illegal if 
you know the bad news because of your insider position, and have 
neglected to make it public before you sell the adversely affected shares.


But they could not prove that she knew the bad news before she sold the 
shares, so she was in fact convicted for obstructing injustice, 
convicted her for not confessing to a crime that they plausibly 
suspected, but were never able to prove.


Compare the Martha Stewart case to a recent supreme court case, where 
some blacks in a car doing a drug deal drove in a reckless and dangerous 
manner, because they were distracted by the drug deal.  The supremes 
ruled that though police could ordinarily arrest them for dangerous 
driving, and, surprise surprise, find the drugs, it was improper to do 
that in this case because the dangerous driving arrest might be 
motivated by the fact that they saw them dealing drugs, and seeing them 
dealing drugs has been deemed insufficient grounds for search.


Had police not noticed the drug deal going down, then they could have 
arrested them for dangerous driving and found the drugs.  But because 
police saw the drug deal going down, the drugs that they found were 
ruled inadmissable.


If you are doing a characteristically black crime, police are not 
allowed to see what is right in front of them.  If you are suspected of 
doing a characteristically white middle class crime, you are subject to

The problem is that you have to trust the issuer to not defect, and to 
not be forced to defect by the cops.  It is completely centralized, 
which means the state can apply pressure - the cops come and seize the 
issuers reserves, or seize the issuer himself and his computer.  This is 
the problem that decentralized currencies like bitcoin seek to avoid.


Unfortunately, decentralization raises transaction costs, which are 
becoming extremely burdensome on bitcoin, resulting in spontaneous

the potential 'ingroup' members don't know the 'secret

Are you also a Soviet Spy

[James A. Donald]

I have asked this question, how to do a secret handshake that reveals 
common membership of the group without giving away your membership to 
non members, several times before, and not been happy with the answers, 
so I guess I am asking it badly.


I will try to be clearer about the problem I am trying to solve.

These days, people no longer communicate on Usenet and email lists. 
Rather they use something for which we have not formed a word. I will 
call it a social blogging platform, unless someone has a better word.


Twitter, Facebook, and to a lesser extent WordPress, and such are all 
examples of this.


In a blogging platform, you post and people comment on your post. 
WordPress is the classic example


Plus, it is a communication medium, you can chat privately to people and 
groups, like viber.


Viber and skype are messenger with very little blogging, WordPress is 
blogging with very little messenger, Facebook is the two integrated. 
Viber is currently the best messaging system, WordPress the best 
blogging, Facebook the best integrated messaging and blogging system, 
but the world is moving to tighter integration.  Every messaging 
platform is adding some blog like features, every blogging system is 
adding some messaging type features.


Facebook consists largely of chicks posting "look at me, I am hot", boys 
commenting, "yes, you are hot", and then they go into Facebook 
messenger, communicate privately, and make an assignation to have sex. 
It was designed from the beginning for the purpose, hence the excellent 
integration between the posting and commenting, which is analogous to 
WordPress, and the private messaging, which is analogous to skype. 
Facebook is pretty much Skype+WordPress, and all the others are 
competing for the same market niche, though Facebook totally dominates 
the sexual assignation and booty call niche by far.


Specialist systems, for example the Cupid system for international 
dating have the same basic architecture - posts plus tightly integrated 
private messaging.


The trouble is that the major systems, especially twitter, are heavily 
politicized and censored, and so people are forming alt-tech, such as 
Gab, to escape from politics and censorship.


If you want to read a science paper about the nut gathering activities 
of the gray squirrel, or an adventure comic about the Mighty Thor, or a 
science fiction story about flash Gordon traveling to the far stars, you 
instead get politics.


You think you are reading about the nut gathering activities of the gray 
squirrel, and it turns into the effect of global warming on the gray 
squirrel, which effect we are told is extremely bad, though no concrete 
evidence of this is provided, the evils of global warming upon the 
squirrel being asserted but not actually shown.


But it is not actually about the effect of global warming on the gray 
squirrel, rather it is about global warming itself. We are told that 
global warming is even worse than we thought, though how bad we used to 
think it was is never precisely specified, and how bad now we think it 
is not specified either, and the evidence that we should now think it 
even worse is alluded to rather than given.


But it is not actually about global warming itself, rather it is that 
the industrial civilization that white people created is destroying the 
earth.


But it is not actually about the destruction of the earth by white 
civilization, rather it is that heterosexual white males are horribly 
bad, and extremely harmful to all other kinds of creatures.


Similarly, when one read the adventures of Thor, one encounters female 
Thor.  But it is not actually about female Thor, it is that gender 
binary is false and evil.  But it is not actually about gender binary, 
it is that ... heterosexual white males are horribly bad, and extremely 
harmful to all other kinds of creatures.


And similarly, when Flash Gordon travels to the far stars, it turns out 
that an evil corporation run by white heterosexual patriarchal males is 
oppressing blue skinned tree living aliens to steal their natural 
resources ... bad, and extremely harmful to all other kinds of creatures.


This endless insulting, ignorant, stupid, and offensive hectoring 
happens all the time, everywhere, on every topic, in every medium, on 
every platform, from Facebook to Twitter, from Scientific American to 
Marvel comics, from romance novels to first person shooter games, and if 
you complain, you are racist, sexist, homophobic, Islamophobic, and a 
denier and you get banned.  Observe for example that the only people 
allowed to be good fathers on television or the comics are blacks, and 
even black males are still required to have broken families.  Evidently 
the depiction of a good father ruling over a happy family is homophobic, 
bastardphobic, sexist, racist, whatever.

Take each substring of six words or less, that does not contain a full 
stop internally.  The substring may contain a start of sentence marker 
at the beginning, and or an end of sentence marker at the end.


Each substring constitutes a vector in a space of enormously high 
dimension, the space of all possible strings of moderate length.


Each such vector is randomly but deterministically mapped to a mere 
hundred or so dimensions, to a space of moderately high dimension, by 
randomly giving each coordinate the value of plus one, minus one, or zero.


Two identical substrings in two separate documents will be mapped to the 
same vector in the space of moderate dimension.


Each document is then given a position in the space of moderately high 
dimension by summing all the vectors, and then normalizing the resulting 
vector to length one.


Thus each document is assigned a position on the hypersphere in the 
space of moderately high dimension.


If two different documents contain some identical substrings, will tend 
to be closer together.


We then assign a document to its closest group of documents, and the 
closest subgroup within that group, and the closest sub sub group.

It is not exactly a hoax.  Rather, they cherry pick the evidence, 
torture the data, use nonsensical statistical methods, and reject 
unwanted evidence as error, as for example 
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2009/12/08/the-smoking-gun-at-darwin-zero/


The Hockey stick curve is not exactly a lie.  Rather, what they did is 
use an estimate for recent twentieth century warming, and took any data 
that correlated with that during the twentieth century, declared 
anything that correlated to be a proxy for temperature, and took the 
weighted average of all these "proxies"


Since they were, for the most part, not measures of temperature, they 
tended to cancel out except for the period where they had been selected 
for correlating, thus producing a hockey stick.


If your data is random noise, and you select those noise sequences that 
rise from 1970 to 1990, and take their average, you get a hockey stick 
blade from 1970 to 1990, and everything before 1970 flat, *and* 
*everything* *after* *1990* flat, because except for the period on which 
you are selecting, everything cancels out.


Of course, as time passed, they proceeded to once again cancel out, so 
the hockey stick curve developed a sudden dip - the proxies were 
reporting that the earths temperature was falling back to its long term 
average - not because it was falling back, but because these proxies 
were not in fact proxies, but just random noise.


This was the "decline" that Mann refers to in "Mike's Nature Trick to

Which brings me to the climategate files.  I have read the climategate

Emmett Till was not lynched, he was quietly and furtively murdered for

furtively and quietly murdered today.  Hitting on someone else's girl,

A lynching is conducted openly in public by high status people who 
believe themselves, and are believed by others, to be defending the

hidden corpse was later discovered.

Surface thermometers are not an accurate measure of global warming, 
because they tend to be close to human habitation, and therefore the 
*local* environment is getting warmer.


Also weather stations keep getting shut down from time to time, and new 
weather stations pop up from time to time, resulting in the need for 
guesswork and ad hoc corrections to stitch together results from 
different weather stations.


Also, somehow, not every weather station is included, and warmists have 
a notorious tendency to somehow leave out weather stations that are 
getting colder - which is pretty much every unmanned weather station in 
Antarctica.


Also, warmists have a notorious tendency to make ad hoc and unexplained 
"corrections" to weather stations that give inconvenient results, as for 
example:


https://wattsupwiththat.com/2009/12/08/the-smoking-gun-at-darwin-zero/

Bottom line:  The people whose data you are relying on have been caught 
lying before.


In the case of Antarctica, they are not exactly lying, rather they are 
cherry picking their weather stations to get the result that they want.
