Government interventions or restrictions of free trade are usually and historically very bad ideas! India did something similar already with smartphones.

Harvard "Morgue Scandal". Families Join Human Remains Trafficking Lawsuit with Palki Sharma
About 400 bodies donated to science were trafficked over several years by an employee of the morgue! Does this leftist elite school has a diverse and inclusive divert and snatch body parts program?

Greg Kelly: 'What about America? What about Democracy?'
Update of 1/4/2023 at 13:00 MST: It appears this video was in the meantime removed from YouTube! Very strange!
Recommendable! Greg bets the Dimocratic Party will nominate Michelle Obama to be the next presidential candidate.
Two images of the day
America, the beautiful banana republic! You persecute or prosecute your political opponent so the senile, demented, and corrupt 46th President!
The Biggest Threat to the U.S.? Unsustainable government budget deficits and debt!
Very recommendable!
The fiscal irresponsibility of the U.S. Congress and the U.S. President have reached a critical level! The U.S. federal debt to GDP ratio has reached over 120% that is higher than basically all member states of the OECD.
The interest payments are already eating up the federal budget!
Living beyond the means is possible for some time, but not for very long!

Trump und seine Mitverschwörer - Smiths Anklageschrift rekonstruiert die Umsturzpläne. Wirklich!
Was für ein blanker journalistischer Unsinn! Die Journalistin sollte sich dringendst wegen schweren Fall von Trump Derangement Syndrome sofort behandeln lassen! Sie berichtet aus der Hauptstadt und ist ganz offenbar ein Mitglied des Swamps von Washington DC.
Wer z.B. nicht erkennt dass das timing der mehreren kürzlichen und in kurzer Folge eingereichten Anklagen gegen Trump schon an sich hoch verdächtig und als Ablenkungsmanöver von der erschreckenden Korruption des Biden Clans gestaltet sind oder das der Sonderankläger Smith ein mehrfach völlig gescheiterter Ankläger und abgehalftert, williger Handlanger ist usw. hat seinen Job total verfehlt!
Es ließe sich noch mehr sagen über z.B. die offensichtlich zweifelhafte election integrity in 2020 und vieles mehr!
Mormon state battles ‘biblical’ grasshopper invasion

"Earlier this spring, Neil Sorensen’s farm looked downright apocalyptic.

Israel's Prime Minister Golda Meir considered Palestinian statehood in 1970 according to declassified documents
Amazing stuff! I have no doubt that this question is on the mind of every Israeli Prime Minister! Probably, every Prime Minister tried and wrestled to find a reasonable and mutually acceptable solution!
However, many Arabs missed, failed to recognize, and actively sabotaged every opportunity to self-determination and to live in an independent state offering happiness and prosperity! Their foolish, persistent and systematic Antisemitism has been a huge failure! High time to change course! History does to wait for utter foolishness to fade away!
"Former Israeli prime minister Golda Meir acknowledged the possibility of future Palestinian statehood in 1970 – three years after the Six-Day War – according to recently-declassified protocols ...
[She] held talks in October 1970 with senior ministers – including defense minister Moshe Dayan and education minister Yigal Allon – in which the possibility of a Palestinian state was discussed.
Meir, who famously said "There was no such thing as Palestinians" in 1969, apparently viewed the possibility of a future Palestinian state as likely to materialize in the future. “It will be necessary to leave the Arabs of Judea and Samaria an option to earn self-determination at a later stage, if and when it suits us,” Meir said at the start of the meeting. ..."

Some doctors think they have a license to do anything
Some or a few doctors are monsters! They too willingly and readily violate their and ancient Hippocratic Oath (Do no harm!)!
Case in point: Any doctor who thinks he/she has a calling/mission or is all to willing or way too easy going to commit genital mutilation of teenagers (double mastectomy, converting the vagina or penis) in the name of "gender dysphoria" or as part of the horrific euphemism "gender affirming care" is dubious!

Bundesregierung gibt die Digitalisierung nun offiziell auf. Olaf Scholz der Rückschrittkanzler
Neues und reichlich Unbekömmliches aus der Bananenrepublik D.! Die Schlafmützen wie Olaf Scholz und der Klimawahnminister Habeck verpassen die Digitalisierung!
Dort wo wie wild, wie im Rausch Windmühlen gebaut werden ist der Rückschritt vorprogrammiert im 21igsten Jahrhundert!
"Den neuen Führerschein im Internet beantragen? Oder das Auto dort zulassen – auch nur Antragsformulare im Netz abrufen. Für andere Europäer ist so etwas selbstverständlich. Doch deutsche Bürger können davon nur träumen. Sie müssen weiterhin Wartemarken ziehen und sich den Hosenboden auf deutschen Amtsstühlen wundschrubbern, bevor ihnen der Staat eine Dienstleistung gewährt.
Eigentlich wollte der Bund die Verwaltung schon längst digitalisiert haben. Doch Innenministerin Nancy Faeser (SPD) hat das verschoben und dabei völlig auf neue Fristen verzichtet. Wer sich keine Ziele setzt, kann auch nicht scheitern. Das klang, als ob das Thema für die Regierung Scholz gegessen ist. Und tatsächlich: Jetzt hat seine Regierung den Etat für die Digitalisierung der Verwaltung zusammengestrichen – von 377 auf 3 Millionen Euro im Jahr.
Deutlicher kann eine Regierung nicht zeigen, dass sie nicht an die Zukunft glaubt. Während längst nicht nur Europa – sondern auch Afrika – ins digitale Zeitalter aufbricht, bleibt Deutschland in der Ära des Faxgeräts zurück. Geld ist da. Die Steuereinnahmen sind so hoch wie nie.

Crypto Is Illegal in China. Binance Does $90 Billion of Business in a month There Anyway
What is legal and illegal in a totalitarian dictatorship run by a Communist Party? 😊
Are some Chinese citizens outsmarting the police state? A sort of digital revolution for freedom! The company was founded by a Chinese-born Canadian businessman. "Binance was initially based in China, then moved its headquarters out of China shortly before the Chinese government imposed regulations on cryptocurrency trading." Is this a "Proclaim Liberty Throughout All the Land Unto All the Inhabitants thereof." moment?
"Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange, was supposed to leave China behind when the country made cryptocurrency trading illegal in 2021."
"The transactions made China by far the biggest market for the world’s largest crypto exchange, accounting for 20% of volume worldwide, excluding very large traders’ trades, according to internal figures WSJ viewed and current and former employees. Binance, which faces a global regulatory crackdown, helped China users circumvent restrictions, according to an internal document the WSJ viewed. China’s central bank said Binance’s website is blocked. After the restriction was instituted in 2021, the company said it “has always strictly complied with the relevant requirements of local regulatory agencies"

Teenagers endangered riding very fast E-bikes with speeds up to 70 mph
I can attest to the very high speed of E-bikes when teenagers ride it in my neighborhood! I was stunned about the very high speed. And the teenagers visibly enjoyed the ride!
This is a serious concern!
For me personally, I like the high speed! Living in a sunshine state like Arizona it would make it possible to ditch owning and maintaining a car with its attending very high costs of owning and maintaining it for a nice and much cheaper cargo E-bike! 😊
"As electric bikes take off in popularity, a spate of accidents and deaths among teenagers is raising questions about how to improve e-bike safety for this demographic.
E-bikes fall into a unique category: They can go much faster than pedal bikes—but are not restricted by age or a license requirement. ...
Modifiable designs: E-bikes sold with speed restraints can be easily modified by clipping wires—allowing some bikes to achieve speeds of 70 mph."

On the vile demagoguery about the incident on the U.S. Capitol on January 6th?
The heavy and relentless demagoguery about this event is very annoying and disturbing! It is worthy of a banana republic! The events of this day were much more complex and dynamic than the demagogues want us to believe.
The so called storm on the U.S. Capitol totally pales compared to the weeks of many orgies of violence that followed the death of the lifetime criminal and addict George Floyd, who resisted his arrest by police. The police officer responsible for his death was adjudicated in the court of law and sentenced to over 22 years in prison! How about the perpetrators of the orgies of violence?
If it is true as was reported multiple times that the authorities in charge of U.S. Capitol security had advanced prior knowledge about a possible "storm or riot or attack" why did they fail so spectacularly? Where there plain cloth police or FBI officers in the crowd? Did some of them perhaps actively incite the crowd like provocateurs? How much did some police officers collaborate with the crowd?
If there really had been an attack or riot on the U.S. Capitol as the demagogues incessantly claim, then heavily armed citizens could have easily committed a very bloody massacre on this day (possibly several Representatives and Senators killed)! Instead it was more like a peaceful assembly of unarmed citizens inside the building almost as if amazed tourists wandered around and marveled at the halls of power!
Remember: The only killed person that day was an unarmed female citizen inside the building shot by a police officer. We do not want to explicitly mention the skin color of the female citizen and the police officer here, because had it been a black woman and a white police officer all hell would have broken loose again!

Mining metals and minerals from seawater
Certainly an interesting idea! However, one day we may very well discover the significant negative impact this could have on fauna and flora of the oceans.
I would guess and bet, that sea floor mining is less harmful!
"The modern world runs on electronic devices and energy systems that are powered by valuable elements, such as lithium and uranium. There are a limited number of terrestrial mines that produce energy-critical elements, which makes the supply of these materials prone to disruption. So researchers are looking to an unconventional source: seawater. Almost every element on the periodic table can be found in global oceans—but most are dissolved in ultralow concentrations. In this episode of Stereo Chemistry, we hear from scientists in the US and European Union about why they’re interested in extracting metals and minerals from seawater and how they’re using chemistry to do it."
Modern Western wisdom: Never say never
I knew this expression in German language (Sage niemals nie) since my childhood days and I have wholeheartedly embraced it all my life.
I just learnt that this adage is likely not ancient Chinese wisdom. So I became curious.
I suspected it was perhaps ancient Greek or Roman wisdom or Indian or Persian.
Perhaps this concept was expressed in ancient times in a different way, but perhaps not so succinctly and aptly.
According to Google Search "“Never say never.” This expression was first recorded in Charles Dickens's Pickwick Papers (1837)." Microsoft Bing Search delivers a similar result.
Can microbes replace synthetic fertilizer?
Good question! Hopefully, we can develop better and more effective fertilizers! Perhaps as many as 1 billion people don't have enough food almost every day!
If the Global Warming hoax and Climate Change religion can drive more intensive (possibly previously somewhat neglected) research on how to improve the yield of agriculture so be it! Whatever the excuse or pretext or fallacy! 😊
"IN BRIEF
A number of companies hope to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions and water pollution associated with synthetic nitrogen fertilizer by replacing it with nitrogen-producing microbes. After years of research and testing, these products are now being deployed on millions of hectares of farmland. While many customers are successfully reducing their use of synthetic fertilizer, some farmers and researchers say the microbes aren’t living up to companies’ claims. The firms are pushing back. They argue that their own studies show that the products are effective and will help abate synthetic fertilizer’s harms without sacrificing food production."

CoreWeave came 'out of nowhere' poised to make billions off AI with its GPU cloud
Sounds promising! Texas competes with California! Competition is good! The creative destruction by daring entrepreneurs continues! Bravo!
"A few months ago, few had heard of CoreWeave, a cloud startup specializing in GPU-accelerated workloads, according to Brannin McBee, the company’s co-founder and chief strategy officer. Now, CoreWeave is poised to make billions off of the generative AI boom with its GPU cloud.
“We’ve come out of nowhere,” he told VentureBeat in an interview last week. With over $400 million in new funding; a new $1.6 billion data center in Plano, Texas; and the world’s fastest AI supercomputer built in partnership with Nvidia unveiled last month, the company’s fortunes have shifted dramatically — thanks, in no small part, to Nvidia. ...
CoreWeave was founded in 2017 by three commodities traders who turned their cryptocurrency mining hobby into an Ethereum mining company, using GPUs to verify blockchain transactions — doing business out of a New Jersey data center.

"Die USA haben ein A verloren. Die Ratingagentur Fitch hat die Kreditwürdigkeit der United States von AAA auf AA+ abgestuft. Damit ist Fitch schon die zweite von drei Ratingagenturen, die den Vereinigten Staaten nur noch die zweitbeste Wertung zukommen lassen. Wie passt das zum wirtschaftlichen Aufschwung, den die USA jüngst erlebt haben? ...
Dass die USA dereinst die wirtschaftliche Vormachtstellung an China verlieren könnten, hat eine CIA-Studie schon vor gut zehn Jahren dem damals amtierenden Präsidenten Barack Obama erklärt. So unterschiedliche Amtszeiten wie die von Obama, Donald Trump und Joe Biden lassen sich dadurch erklären. Das „Home of the Brave“ will und wird nicht tatenlos dabei zusehen, wie ihnen eine andere Nation den Rang abläuft.
Was auf der anderen Seite des Atlantiks passiert, betrifft auch Deutschland. Unser Handelsüberschuss war Trump genauso ein Dorn im Auge wie vor ihm Obama und nach ihm Biden.

What is long Covid-19?
It is primarily an attempt to perpetuate what was in fact a rather harmless global pandemic that largely ended significantly before the year 2023 started. Alarmism and hysteria are being exploited!
This is very annoying and disturbing!
Yes, Covid-19 was extremely infectious, but not directly very lethal. Most of the infected had no or mild symptoms and so on. Healthy children, teenagers and younger adults were not really at risk and so on. Most infected died of other causes than Covid-19.
The coronavirus "are a large family of respiratory viruses that includes COVID-19, Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS), and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). Coronaviruses cause diseases in animals and humans. They often circulate among camels, cats, and bats, and can sometimes evolve and infect people.In humans, the viruses can cause mild respiratory infections, like the common cold, but can lead to serious illnesses, like pneumonia." (Source). On the spectrum between mild and serious diseases, I estimate the SARS-CoV-2 virus to be closer to mild diseases than serious diseases.
Most like most of these many claims of long Covid-19 are exaggerations or else!
It is great business to do so for the medical profession, pharmaceutical industry and others. Cui bono?
They want you to continue to live in fear and pay with your money for this mostly phony perpetuation!
What to do about nonconsensual deepfake porn?
Given today's technologies anybody (woman or men) could end up becoming the victim of a phony, but extremely genuinely looking public images or video showing the person in compromising sexual scenes. Motivations for the creation of such porn vary and are plenty.
A case in point: Any day a deepfake pictures or a video of Stormy Daniels and Donald Trump could turn up on the Internet.

ASEAN As An Indo-Pacific Middle Power: Shaping The Emerging Regional Order – Analysis
I did not have time to read it, but the headline expresses a very possible development shaping the future of Asia.
The article appears to give little credit to India! Actually, India is not even mentioned once in this article. What a glaring omission!!!
"The emerging Indo-Pacific geostrategic construct marks a momentous shift in regional dynamics, heralding the dawn of a new order that replaces the well-known Asia Pacific framework. Despite initial reservations, Southeast Asian nations have gradually embraced the reality of this burgeoning regional order, as evident through the “ASEAN Outlook on the Indo-Pacific,” which serves as a guiding framework for ASEAN’s engagement in the Indo-Pacific region. At the core of this emerging structure is the United States’ vision, articulated in its Indo-Pacific Strategy, which seeks to counterbalance China’s influence. To achieve this objective, the US has introduced initiatives that deliberately exclude China such as the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue (QUAD), the AUKUS trilateral security partnership involving Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States, and the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework for Prosperity (IPEF). ..."

Dieser anscheinend auch World Economic Forum Gläubige predigt auch die "Transformation" sprich sozialistische Planwirtschaft!
Und dann diese blödsinnige Hypothese warme Länder wirtschaftlich schwächer!!!
Ist der Mann (69 Jahre alt) inzwischen etwa so senil wie der 46. Präsident der USA? Scheint so!
Dieser Ökonom versteigt sich sogar die höchst dubiosen globalen Temperaturmessungen als gesichertes Wissen zu verkaufen: "Optimal ist eine Temperatur von durchschnittlich 13 Grad Celsius im Jahr. Steigt die Temperatur um einen Grad, würde sich zum Beispiel in Schweden, einem relativ kalten Land, die Produktivität um 0,71 Prozent erhöhen und in Indien, wo es schon heiß ist, um 1,05 Prozent senken." Was für ein blanker Unsinn!

Malaysia wants to be 'regional renewable powerhouse'
Good luck with that! More socialist central planning by Big Government! Most likely a huge waste of taxpayers' money as is so often the case!
"Malaysia has launched programs to promote renewable energy in a country that has relied heavily on fossil fuels, hoping to lead Southeast Asia in transition to a greener economy.
But the ambitious targets, such as having renewables supply 70% of the total energy supply by 2050, have experts stressing that the government needs to roll out complementary regulatory frameworks to support the transition."
Malaysia’s Economy Minister Rafizi Ramli, center, and others pose for a photo at a launch event of the National Energy Transition Roadmap in Kuala Lumpur on July 27.
Google unveils RT-2, a new AI that makes robots smarter
This seems to be very promising! I did not have time to look further into it.
"Google’s DeepMind has announced Robotics Transformer 2 (RT-2), a first-of-its-kind vision-language-action (VLA) model that can enable robots to perform novel tasks without specific training. ...
Back in 2022, [Google] debuted RT-1, a multi-task model that trained on 130,000 demonstrations and enabled Everyday Robots to perform 700-plus tasks with a 97% success rate. Now, using the robotic demonstration data from RT-1 with web datasets, the company has trained the successor of the model: RT-2. ...

Now, using the robotic demonstration data from RT-1 with web datasets, the company has trained the successor of the model: RT-2. ...
The biggest highlight of RT-2 is that, unlike RT-1 and other models, it does not require hundreds of thousands of data points to get a robot to work. ... Organizations have long found specific robot training (covering every single object, environment and situation) critical to handling complex, abstract tasks in highly variable environments.
However, in this case, RT-2 learns from a small amount of robotic data to perform the complex reasoning seen in foundation models and transfer the knowledge acquired to direct robotic actions – even for tasks it’s never seen or been trained to do before.
“RT-2 shows improved generalization capabilities and semantic and visual understanding beyond the robotic data it was exposed to,” Google explains. This includes interpreting new commands and responding to user commands by performing rudimentary reasoning, such as reasoning about object categories or high-level descriptions.” ..."
World's tallest wooden wind turbine makes wind energy truly sustainable. Really!
Junk journalism all around us! Don Quixote please mount your horse again with loyal servant Sancho Panza and save humanity!
Human follies abound triggered by the Global Warming hoax and Climate Change religion! The more absurd, the better!
How absurd is this:
"In a groundbreaking venture, Swedish engineers at Modvion are harnessing one of the oldest building materials in history to revolutionize wind power efficiency. Their unique wooden wind turbine, soon to be the world's tallest, is making waves in the renewable energy industry. Wooden turbines are cheaper, more efficient, and even stronger than steel ones. ..."
Don Quixote tilting at wind mills!
The “unknome”: a database of human genes we know almost nothing about
This is a new paper to be published by PLOS Biology, but it is still under embargo until 8/1/2023. Sounds promising!
"Sharpening the focus on unknown proteins to accelerate research"
From the abstract:
"Researchers from the United Kingdom hope that a new, publicly available database they have created will shrink, not grow, over time. That’s because it is a compendium of the thousands of understudied proteins encoded by genes in the human genome, whose existence is known but whose functions are mostly not. The database, dubbed the “unknome” ... Their own investigations of a subset of proteins in the database reveal that a majority contribute to important cellular functions, including development and resilience to stress. ..."

Drag queen artist tops Christian album chart on iTunes
Anything wrong with that? Perhaps, this man sings wonderful gospels! Not every drag queen is a pedophile!
Caveat: I have no idea who this man is and what his music is like.
Cato Institute: Governments Should Not Fund Research
You got to love those terribly naive liberals at the Cato Institute!
Of course, government should be funding some research when necessary or when important, but otherwise neglected etc. (e.g. some basic research).
"... Many scientists (e.g., Michael Faraday) investigate for the joy of discovery, not to earn a financial return. Further, many esteemed inventors received no government funding, including Thomas Edison, Nikola Tesla, and the Wright brothers (who were competing with government funding to the Smithsonian Institution to develop aircraft). ..."
Boston Mayor Wu bans fossil fuels in new city-owned building construction. Really!
These terrible busybody socialist big government politicians are everywhere!
"In the latest push for her Green New Deal, Boston Mayor Michelle Wu signed an executive order that prohibits city-owned buildings from being constructed or renovated in a way that allows for the use of fossil fuels.
The order, which went into effect after it was signed on Monday afternoon, is part of the mayor’s larger effort to implement a similar ban on new residential buildings, her office said, a plan that has drawn the ire of certain real-estate groups. ..."
President James Buchanan: A Legacy of Failure
Very recommendable! However, the title and content of this video are extreme views! The American Civil War was about secession not slavery!
The Lancet: The Carbon Cost of Health Care. Really!
What a baloney! This is so absurd!
Propaganda and demagoguery spread by a very prestigious medical journal! Social injustice everywhere! The Global Warming hoax and Climate Change religion on display! The government run National Health Service wants to enforce the climate dogma on its suppliers!
Even inhalers are dangerous!
Anesthesia is dangerous!
Nigel Farage: Trump is a phenomenon unlike anything we've ever seen before
What an endorsement by Mr. Brexit! No doubt, the Trump Derangement Syndrome has run amok under the senile, demented and corrupt 46th President.
Sen. Kennedy Makes HYPOCRITE climate pseudoscience Professor Look Like a FOOL
Very recommendable! What an arrogant prick this professor is! Incredible!
