Billionaire Trump-Backer Peter Thiel Seeks Malta Citizenship, Report Says
by Gunnar Larson 16 Oct '22

https://www.forbes.com/sites/brianbushard/2022/10/15/billionaire-trump-back… Billionaire venture capitalist, PayPal cofounder and major MAGA Republican donor Peter Thiel <https://www.forbes.com/profile/peter-thiel/?sh=2be0ae06533a> is seeking citizenship in the Mediterranean island nation of Malta, according to a *New York Times* report, although his intentions behind the citizenship are not yet clear. Although a Malta citizenship would not provide Thiel with a significant tax benefit <https://www.nytimes.com/2022/10/15/technology/peter-thiel-malta-citizenship…>, the *New York Times* reported, it could provide him a multi-million-dollar compound and an escape from the U.S.—he has expressed extreme dissatisfaction with the direction the country is headed, increasingly funneling his multibillion-dollar net worth into pro-MAGA candidates. Thiel, a self-described conservative libertarian who co-founded Palantir Technologies and PayPal and served on Facebook’s board of directors until February, has poured <https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2022/oct/15/peter-thiel-who-is-he-re…> roughly $30 million into GOP campaigns ahead of the November midterm elections, Politico reported. Candidates he’s funded include fellow venture capitalists Blake Masters, who is running for a seat in Arizona, and J.D. Vance, in Ohio—both were endorsed by former President Donald Trump.

Its the crypto-anarchist economy, stupid
by professor rat 16 Oct '22

For any trolls interested in finding out what anarchism actually means, Kropotkin’s definition for the 1911 edition of Encyclopedia Britannica remains a great place to start. But, as Alan Moore points out in his wonderful interview with Margeret Killjoy, even if we take the authoritarian definition, anarchy brings us to a much better place than the authoritarians ever could: “I believe that all other political states are in fact variations or outgrowths of a basic state of anarchy; after all, when you mention the idea of anarchy to most people they will tell you what a bad idea it is because the biggest gang would just take over. Which is pretty much how I see contemporary society. We live in a badly developed anarchist situation in which the biggest gang has taken over and have declared that it is not an anarchist situation—that it is a capitalist or a communist situation. But I tend to think that anarchy is the most natural form of politics for a human being to actually practice. All it means, the word, is no leaders. An-archon. No leaders.” https://anarchistnews.org/content/principle Reposts not screaming brainrot avenue

Not least as he will find the company of many other spyware traders. Malta seems to be attractive for the industry.

It makes sense to me to implement them as objects, although I haven't learned design since OOP in the 90s, technically: it wasn't really different from modules in C, just used cleaner syntax. So maybe my knowledge is relevent. So, an object for data, and an object for indices (inner nodes), or whatnot. A core function is taking slices of inner nodes, and then recalculating their leaves and lengths and integrating them into a balancing strategy. So, the reason to make an object for indices, is to facilitate taking their slices and acquiring their new leaf count. A balancing strategy will want to know their depth and their leaf count. - taking slices of inner nodes (index objects), and getting the leaf count and height of these slices - index objects then reference such slices alongside data nodes, in a tree not too complex. The tree is the index class ... almost . The big challenge for me is bringing the parts together. Making them simple and clear seems helpful. - Taking slices of a tree, and calculating the leafcount and height of the slices. ---------- From: <cypherpunks-owner(a)lists.cpunks.org> Date: Mon, Aug 22, 2022 at 1:56 PM To: <gmkarl(a)gmail.com> Only subscribers may post to this list.

The quick 'flat_tree' code I wrote for my semi-successful 'log' project doesn't retain copies of old trees after they are published. It stores just one tree, containing references to old copies of itself. For interconnecting disparate data, it seems it would make sense to let the system introspect into the tree, and look at it. This could mean providing for retaining the old copies, or it could mean accessing the network. [some confusion around the data already being available, unsure of these .... in the general case it would not be ...] So, the nodes might have some abstract way of taking the slices. A quick implementation would not calculate or optimize anything, just summing the leaves of the children that overlap the slice. ---------- From: <cypherpunks-owner(a)lists.cpunks.org> Date: Mon, Aug 22, 2022 at 1:58 PM To: <gmkarl(a)gmail.com> Only subscribers may post to this list.

A default implementation could naively simply sum the properties of the intersecting children. Alongside that, we have a data/leaf node representation. And an index node class, with an abstract method/member function for taking a slice.

Two cultures evolved
by professor rat 14 Oct '22

14 Oct '22

CP Snow posited two cultures over half a century ago. They were science and the humanities. Well we know how that went. Today's cultural divide( s) are/is between scientists. Relativists Vs Quantum-mechs in universe being Bio's Vs intelligent machines in species being. I'm betting on a quantum-robots. synthesis - and their two-cultures will involve aliens. Why violent colons, Mollusk and NASA are are so dangerous right now. FIRST do NO HARM, MORONS! SHOW SOME FUCKING RESPECT!
