Apparently the westies interbred with the central africans a bit, which means there's a notable amount of WAG dna within some groups. Was anyone able to avoid mixing and remain "pure", or is everyone mixed these days? If so, which group in particular would be the purest?

>The 2025 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences was awarded to Joel Mokyr, Philippe Aghion, and Peter Howitt for explaining innovation-driven economic growth, particularly Mokyr for identifying prerequisites for growth and Aghion and Howitt for their theory of growth through "creative destruction," highlighting how new innovations replace old ones, driving progress. Their work explains the shift from stagnant economies to sustained growth, linking technological progress with new ways of understanding and building knowledge, a process rooted in concepts by Joseph Schumpeter.


This discipline sounds like a self evident sociology sprinkled with a little bit of math and statistics. This is the best social science can offer? Economic s as a discipline should be abolished and central banks should just hire unemployed math and physics doctorates and let them run the economy.

Yeah this is how I learned about algorithms cells use in visual areas in the brain to process retinal data. That shit was entirely beyond me and initially I failed the course. Retook it, was studying incredibly hard but I really just didn't *get* it.

Then I decided to give it a look when I was on some LSD and I just "saw" how they did it. All the mathematics, chemistry and terminology just tied together into an understanding at the most basic level of how they operated, and the principle was so incredibly simple.

Passed the course with 8,5 out of 10 and ended up specializing in the field.

The more I read between the lines regarding intent behind some of the scientific establishment the more I lean towards the opinion that there is a secret society of very rich and powerful people leveraging the skills of scientist for their own nefarious purposes.

>Immortality research
Because I'm rich and don't want to die.

> Starlink, SpaceX, Tesla
Will be used for Internet on mars, will be the ship used to get there, responsible for robotic transportation on Mars.

Do you believe any of us will receive a starship escort there?

>AI
Creating a new god, with the hopes that it solves all of our problems, will be controlled by the ultra wealthy.

Palantir and the like for mass surveillance.

I'm sure there's more, and you could begin making some connections, but these are just some parralels I've noticed on the fly regarding the most popular "leading frontiers of science".

I'm sure the actual engineers doing the work at these companies aren't revealed the true intent of it.

The internet is proof that we are able to build an artificial consciousness. All data and all memories are shared in the cloud. Any machine connected to this cloud is able to fetch whatever data whenever it wants from it.
Through this cloud we can also remotely communicate. We are only restricted by the speed we type our messages in, but the machines send this info to the receiver almost instantaneously.
Internet of Things is the collective unconscious of the machines. The machines are able to interact with each other without the need for an external command prompt (i.e. a human telling the machine to notice another machine or transmit data to it). Botnet might sound like a familiar concept.
The transhumanists are building this same collective unconscious for humans - the Internet of Bodies. The usual suspects are to blame.

"Covid" was the catalyst for the IoB. It was all planned from the get-go and the vaccine was always the reason for this event. The vaccine is known to contain nanographeneoxide (NGO), which is able to interact with electromagnetic fields (EMF). Just type those two words into Scholar and you'll find quite a lot of papers about it. Remember when the 5G and microchip "conspiracies" first surfaced? It was the earlier days of the pandemic, before April 2020 iirc. This is all planned by them. They want to ridicule the whole concept with over blown lies (i.e. there is an physical chip in the vaxx, 5G causes covid etc.) in order to discredit the whole premise. But there is also a pinch of truth in every lie.
The NGO is the chip which can be manipulated with correct 5G frequencies. Reddits favorite - Elon Musk - is building the 5G satellite network, which will cover the entirety of the world, no blind spots. The bi-yearly boosters are to ensure that you don't get overblown effects by too much NGO injected in a short span. It needs to settle to different organs, but most importantly the brain.

Feed this exact image into any capable large language model.

Ask it to unpack the equation and key fully.

Interface with the idea directly.

That is all.

Implication: "Nothing exists outside A The Mind/Reality is hermetically sealed. There is no "external world" to blame for your problems. If you walk into a wall, the wall is also You.

It frames existence not as a gift or a test, but as a high-stakes improvisation by a lonely God who has voluntarily forgotten He is God (δ), but has removed the safety nets (η,λ) to make the game real. If He wakes up (δ0), the game ends.

Panspermia is a postponed abiogenesis. It just claims that it happened somewhere else. (Stupid shit that explains nothing and should be shaved by a razor)

Except of course for explaining how life can travel vast distances and how the extreme conditions necessary for the emergence of life need not have ever been present on earth and how the extreme time scales for life to evolve to the current conditions need not be accounted for with earth's time frame alone.
