Second, the more we see this kind of pornography, the more likely it is to have an impact on crowd psychology and become a self-fulfilling prophecy. " | [00:41] |

* | jborkl has quit (Client Quit) | [02:15] |

justusranvier | If either side fails to perform the contract no longer exists. | [02:20] |
justusranvier | Before the State took over and made things rediculous | [02:20] |
mircea_popescu | this is a silly view of marriage. | [02:20] |

mircea_popescu | According to a TechCrunch article, Zuckerberg's vision for Internet.org was as follows: "The idea, he said, is to develop a group of basic internet services that would be free of charge to use – 'a 911 for the internet.' These could be a social networking service like Facebook, a messaging service, maybe search and other things like weather. Providing a bundle of these free of charge to users will work like a gateway | [02:23] |
mircea_popescu | drug of sorts – users who may be able to afford data services and phones these days just don’t see the point of why they would pay for those data services. This would give them some context for why they are important, and that will lead them to paying for more services like this – or so the hope goes." | [02:23] |
mircea_popescu | this has got to be the most fucktarded business model i ever read. | [02:23] |
mircea_popescu | so what, the reason i don't; buy an android tho i could afford to buy the engineer designing it is that... wait for it... it never occured to me to get... internet weather ? | [02:24] |

decimation | well, like any engineering project it depends on the design | [06:20] |
mircea_popescu | So what went wrong? For one thing, the villages that Sachs picked experienced all kinds of problems – from drought to political unrest. For another, the MVP took an idealistic “Field of Dreams” approach. MVP leaders encouraged farmers to switch to a series of new crops that were in demand in richer countries, and experts on the ground did a good job of helping farmers to produce good crop yields by using fertilis | [06:21] |
mircea_popescu | er, irrigation, and better seeds. | [06:21] |
mircea_popescu | But the MVP didn’t simultaneously invest in developing markets for these crops. According to Munk, “Pineapple couldn’t be exported after all, because the cost of transport was far too high. There was no market for ginger, apparently. And, despite some early interest from buyers in Japan, no one wanted banana flour.” The farmers grew the crops, but the buyers didn’t come. | [06:21] |
mircea_popescu | ahjahahaha o god. | [06:22] |
mircea_popescu | i wonder how long until these schmucks can earnestly admit "we like going to poor villages in africa because it is enjoyable to peruse in detail the troglodytism of lesser people" | [06:22] |
mircea_popescu | all this disavowing pretense of "helping them" and "world better place" bs. | [06:22] |
asciilifeform | incidentally, this is the only kind of 'charity' that exists in u.s. - and that their 'export product' is similar, should surprise no one. | [06:23] |
mircea_popescu | Of course, Sachs knows that it’s critical to understand market dynamics; he’s one of the world’s smartest economists. But in the villages Munk profiled, Sachs seems to be wearing blinders. | [06:23] |
mircea_popescu | Warren Buffett likes to say, “The rearview mirror is always clearer than the windshield.” Through that rearview mirror, we can see that the project never had an economic model that could sustain successes once the MVP dollars ran out. | [06:23] |
mircea_popescu | All of the interventions involved – health, agriculture, infrastructure, education, and business seed money – make sense if carried out carefully, over time. But I am surprised by how little Sachs dug into country budgets, and that he didn’t work to convince governments to commit to additional taxation | [06:23] |
mircea_popescu | dude wants more taxes. that's the way! | [06:24] |
mircea_popescu | and nobody could have predicted that nobody wants crap in the middle of nowhere. | [06:24] |
mircea_popescu | this sort of prose should be a penal offense. | [06:24] |
decimation | "Another reason Sachs offers for the benefits of diversity is the rather common one that the more contact we have with other ethnic groups, the more we develop trust, forgetting his own previous observation that trust declines in diverse societies, but calling attention instead to some research about the amicable ways in which individuals from different ethnic groups, jet set businessmen and academics, interact with different ethnic | [06:26] |
decimation | individuals inside hotels, restaurants, and conferences. " | [06:26] |
mircea_popescu | heh | [06:26] |
mircea_popescu | yeah dude, some guy in a five star hotel is so very likely to butcher some other guy in a five star hotel. | [06:27] |

asciilifeform | that's a 'lift station.' normally sewer is operated by gravity. but often, for reasons of cost, a pipe will be laid uphill. | [07:21] |

mircea_popescu | The logic of a 10 year MOC exam is to keep us up to date, so it's fair to ask: what in psychiatry has changed in ten years, what are the major advances? Depakote was discovered to be the default maintenance mood stabilizer despite no evidence supporting this, but that fell into disuse at a time oddly coinciding with its patent expiration, which is suspicious but I'm no epidemiologist. Anyway, it wasn't on the test. Any | [08:15] |
mircea_popescu | thing else? A few new medicines have come out, though none of them appeared on the test either. There's money to be made on the west coast using giant magnets, (fortunately) also not on the test. So? Was the ABPN worried I'd forget how to use MAOIs? I'm never going to use them, I have enough problems monitoring Xanax. The astonishing truth is that despite millions of dollars and hundreds of academic careers psychiatry | [08:15] |
mircea_popescu | has made no progress in almost 20 years, let alone ten, a claim no other medical specialty can make, and the truth which cannot be spoken out loud. Hence an exam. | [08:15] |

decimation | the history of medicene is mostly about trying to heal people but failing miserably | [08:20] |
decimation | why should someone in this age have a different conceit? | [08:20] |
mircea_popescu | depends how you look at it. | [08:21] |
mircea_popescu | do you suppose medicine is responsible for all health ? or just for those cases it picks up ? | [08:21] |
decimation | well no one can be responsible for everything | [08:21] |
decimation | so the latter | [08:22] |
mircea_popescu | but currently it's mostly regarded as "the health of the population" is a thing. | [08:22] |
mircea_popescu | by the latter criterion i'd guess medicine is mostly successful | [08:22] |

ThickAsThieves | It's not a question to me, humans are not random, nor is a marketplace. Sure, anything CAN happen, but some things are more likely to happen than others and there are ways to approximate that. You could even go in another direction and consider that if traders believe this shit, it self-manifests to some degree. Is it better to know the script, with option to follow it, or not know it | [17:52] |
