Started coding in Fortran in 1986, wandered around in IT until 1999, dropping out of the scene with uncanny timing.

Since then my focus has been Neurogenetics, Mental Illness, and Consciousness.

I have Schizoaffective Disorder, OCD and Panic Disorder. I am homeless in the United States.


  1. Yes, they ruined my 16e. Picking up a $400 pixel today and slapping GrapheneOS on it because the duopoly of phone software is horrific. Bugs vs spyware.
  2. I wish more people HN could recognize sarcasm or a joke or just an analogy or just something fun to say that mimics the ridiculousness of the people we have ruling our culture right now in this weird cult that they think they know everything and think they’re hubris is not gonna land them face first in the mud.
  3. Not for you…
  4. I know who I was thinking of. Theil is looking fro the Antichrist, and the antichrist is Karp.

    Signs of the antichrist:

         1.  He will exalt himself.
         2.  He will heed his inner voice above others.
         3.  He will be hostile toward the true God.
         4.  He will exalt human logic above faith.
         5.  He will prosper for a season and be loved.
         6.  He will not desire women.
         7.  He will not follow the faith of his fathers.
         8.  He will viciously persecute Jews and Christians.
         9.  He will think of himself as greater than God.
        10. He will become increasingly lawless.
        11. He will honour military power above faith.
        12. He will love wealth.
        13. He will hoard precious things.
        14. He will become a man of war.
        15. He will wage a war on all people of faith.
        16. He will force Israel to ratify a treaty.
        17. He will divide Israel and Jerusalem.
        18. He will invade Jerusalem.
        19. He will enter the restored Temple.
        20. He will declare himself above God.
  5. Buy gold and silver. Seriously. If you do not see the precipice we are a top of I have nothing else to say. ever since the great recession the Fed has been propping up the economy with low interest rates and Quantitative Easing. There is no way out of this but for an even greater depression.

    All these fake trump bucks and investment plans are not for the children, they are for the investors that need the money in the market as another way to prop it up. The whole thing with Dell giving this money to these kids? Bullsht. He gave it to himself and to other investors. Nothing but a new kind of stock buyback plan.

    Get ready to see poverty, and get ready to help each other. We are living through the 1920's again and it is crazy very few see it.

  6. Most of you would not even be close to guessing the top ten states with the highest skin cancer rates.

    Utah Minnesota Vermont Arizona Iowa Idaho New Hampshire South Dakota Nebraska Kentucky

    Skin damage, and skin cancer, is not just about the sun. It is about genetics and nutrition as well.

  7. I am someone who is sensitive to MSG and the new substitutes they put in food to replace it.

    It is not "dangerous", and I think that is the problem with the messaging, but it does increase my anxiety, insomnia and fibromyalgia symptoms. And I also thing for most people it is fine, but it certainly does not work with my family's genetics. My mother had the same issue.

    Many things in food now replace MSG. Any time you see a protein isolate, what they are isolating is the glutamate. Malted Barley Flour also contains high levels of glutamate and purines (like inosine) that work synergisticly with it to enhance flavor.

    Glutamate is an excitatory neurotransmitter, and it makes your taste buds more "excited". My mouth tastes like metal whenever I have foods with glutamate. It is not pleasant for me at all.

  8. Honestly, I do not care about all of this anymore. We do not need social media. We just don't. If you want to use it for business then yes, you should need to present an ID.

    "Age verification laws are as ineffective", yes. But this is even true for buying alcohol, but we still have the laws because they help. The more kids are off social media the better.

    "as they are dangerous", this is laughable.

    The example: "16-year-old in Texas, for example, could get pregnant and be denied abortion access—as well as information online about obtaining an abortion through other means, and even parenting the children they’re forced to have."

    Hey, abortions for 16 years olds are illegal in Texas as are nearly all abortions. Yeah, it is a dumb law, but it is the law. So you are advocating for a child to break the law putting them at even more of a risk! You may disagree with the law, but if that is the case, work to change it.

    I had many queer friends growing up in the 80's. They all talked to each other in real life. They had real solidarity in both the gay and straight community. I mean Stonewall happened in real life, not online. Maybe the whole online thing is meant to curtail real action. We do not need online.

    I agree the implementation is faulty.

    But you know how I know most people do not care about "the harm'? Because I am homeless with a serious mental illness and no one cares. Is there one person here who will rent me a room in their huge house for $600 a month so I do not have to stress living in my van anymore?

  9. Nothing makes this inevitable. People like you who want to do nothing about it makes it inevitable.
  10. It is not weird, it is greed and control.
  11. My god, horrific. Does not everyone know everything online is a psyop now? I will tel you, they don't. No one studies things, no one takes the time. AI, social media, it all has to be protested, boycotted.

    Now it seems war is coming from the US it could not be more true that at this moment.

  12. You are a power user if you are using Arc. I know a few people who do not even really understand what a browser is.

    Atlassian bought Arc to put AI in it by the way; "Welcoming The Browser Company to Atlassian Building the AI browser for knowledge workers"

  13. Sorry, you are all missing the point.

    By "sell" I do not mena to make a profit, I mean, make it visible to the market.

    If firefox did its job and got out of the way, who would notice Firefox? It is hard to sell something with no "bells and whistles". Do you think it is a mistake that Liquid Glass exists? No. LG is there so you notice you are on an iPhone which uses to just get out of the way but now is just in my way all the time.

    Adding AI to Firefox is to make it visible in the market.

  15. > What I wish they would realize in the Mozilla C-Suite is that there is real appetite browsers that get out of people’s way and focus on productivity.

    You cannot sell what cannot be seen. Business 101.

  16. I love your comment and I could not just upvote it because it is true with so many things. The technocracy/corpocracy is trying to sell you things that mnake you believe you can have power over everything, even your life. Anyone who "fails" at anything, it is all your fault. I have literally been told my mental illness, and my current homelessness, is my fault because I did not do the right thing. The power and control people think they have over their lives is a paper thin delusion.

    Our shared powerlessness should bring us in communion with others, but the technocracy/corpocracy wants to rip that apart and make us dependent on them for profit.

  17. Flock does not just read license plates, it makes a fingerprint of your car. This is far beyond ALPR.
  18. Anyone, by that I mean anyone that matters, or a very large group of people that you should be afraid of to have this power. I mean, excuse my hyperbole, but is this not enough?

  19. > but he doesn't seem to realize that intent is a thing.

    He does realize this. The problem is the police can make up intent just to mess with people. How easy is it fro the cops to say "You purposely splattered mud on you license plate" and fine you or put you in jail. Or even use it as an excuse to pull you over.

    > haven't courts consistently ruled that drivers have less rights

    This is not about the right to drive. This is about a database of collected data on you that can be searched by anyone. ANYONE.
