RT @saylordocs: Milton Friedman on 4 ways to spend money:

1) Your money on yourself (you’re careful about both cost and quality)
2) Your money on others (you care about cost, less about quality)
3) Someone else’s money on yourself (you care about quality, not cost)
4) Someone else’s money on others (you care about neither)

The last one is how government spending works

RT @cb_doge: 🚨NEW: Elon Musk explains the reason behind the SpaceX and xAI merger.

"In order to understand the universe, you must explore the universe. That's the motivation behind the combination of SpaceX and xAI is to accelerate humanity's future in understanding the universe and extending the light of consciousness to the stars.

So in the grand scheme of things, when you look at how much energy Earth is actually using for civilization, we're only right now using, call it roughly 1% of the potential energy of Earth. And if we wanted to use even a millionth of the sun's energy, that would be roughly a million times more energy than civilization currently uses. The only way to access that energy, the energy of the sun is to extend beyond Earth. Earth is really a tiny, tiny dust Mote in a vast darkness.

The sun is 99.8% of all mass in the solar system, so you have to expand beyond the tiny dust mode that is earth to make any significant dent in using the sun's energy like says, you'd have to expand roughly a million times just to get to 1,000,000th of our sun's energy, and then going beyond that, exploring extending to the Galaxy.

So the the next step beyond Earth data centers is our Earth orbital data centers, and we'll be launching with SpaceX orbital data centers at the 100 to 200 gigawatt per year level, not cumulative, I mean, per year. And ultimately, we see a path to maybe launching as much as a terawatt per year of compute from Earth."

RT @ArthurMacwaters: This should be the 1 congressional priority:

> in 15 states, you don't have to show **any** ID to vote

> 69% of liberal voters support photo ID requirements, but only one democratic senator has voted for the Save Act

> either voter ID is mandated now, or, whenever the senate next flips, the opposite will happen (mandated no-ID voting across the US)

If the bill doesn't pass now, it would be an absolute disaster for electoral security, and would likely essentially create a permanent one-party state

Huge bi-partisan support. It's just a common-sense requirement.

The bill is stuck due to the zombie filibuster - where the minority can refuse to vote, without even standing and talking

End the filibuster and pass the bill!

The House of Representatives has PASSED the SAVE America Act

Congratulations to all who helped make this possible!

Now it’s time for the Senate to act

We must restore the talking filibuster

SpaceX is building the Dyson swarm factory

intelligence ~ energy

the way to unlock massive free energy is simply to get compute close to the Sun via a kinetic energy bump

mass drivers on the Moon are the most effective way to do the latter

The SpaceX team is working towards a mass driver on the Moon

Our timeline just got so much better

RT @Handrev: Keynesian economists perform elaborate mathematical gymnastics to "prove" that $1 of government spending magically becomes $1.50 of economic growth. This fiscal multiplier fairy tale ignores what Bastiat called the "unseen" - the productive investments that never happen because resources were seized by bureaucrats first. Every bridge to nowhere represents a thousand private innovations strangled in their cribs. The seen stimulus creates jobs for government contractors and ribbon-cutting ceremonies for politicians. The unseen is the cancer research, the small businesses, the breakthrough technologies that die stillborn because capital was diverted to political pet projects. Modern economies don't multiply wealth through redistribution any more than you create water by moving it between buckets.

Not just anoether theorem.

Everything follows from symmetry, except asymmetry or maybe even that too.

Noether’s Theorem ✍️

This equation reveals that every continuous symmetry in nature, a change you can make to a system without affecting its physical laws, brings about a conservation law. In simple terms, if the universe does not react to a certain change in perspective, it must keep a related physical quantity constant. For example, since the laws of physics remain unchanged no matter when you are (Time Symmetry), energy is conserved. Since the laws are the same regardless of where you are (Space Symmetry), momentum is conserved. Because they stay the same regardless of which way you face (Rotation Symmetry), angular momentum is conserved. This insight shifted our view of the universe. We no longer see conservation as just a series of lucky observations, but as a necessary outcome of the symmetry of space and time. - ScieVision
