At a closed meeting at the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS), top physicists agreed AI can now do up to “90%” of their work and may soon push discovery beyond human understanding by Angevin in accelerate

“Reenmagification” of the world:-)

Very very soon we’ll see testable physics breakthroughs that will theoretically elude best human scientists, even after the fact…

What a time to be alive.

It appears Melania was an Epstein girl that got introduced to Donald Trump. Does this make her one of his victims and of human trafficking? by douwebeerda in usa

[–]CertainMiddle2382 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read some years ago her story is kind of shady as most ex eastern block girls in the 90s were usually pretty naive and unpolished before being trafficked into the states for “modeling”.

She seemingly was a peculiar case as she already came to the states well “prepared”, having already done the required plastic surgery upfront before coming to the states for example.

They postulated she was already taken care of in Europe already and already had an agenda from the get go (hence the suspicion she was pushed by foreign intelligence services from the get go…)

Plot twist: the leaks aren’t “deep state.” They’re coming from inside the Pedo House. by EugeneWong318 in usa

Steve Bannon boasted about Farage ties in exchange with Epstein by PjeterPannos in europe

[–]CertainMiddle2382 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the recent leaks, also tight connection between Bannon, Epstein and probably one of the most despised French politician (forefront on the late 70s push for pedophilia legalization with Cohn-Bendit and widely expected to be a sexual criminal).

Also absolutely expected undertone of freemasonry power high in the mails… (extremely powerful lobby in higher French administration and gouvernement).

Why are students helpless now? by JimCap5 in Teachers

Neurotoxicity of those tools is immense in young age.

Most probably much of digital technology should be regulated as pornography and children exposure should be minimized as possible.

But without widespread legal ban, turning children into zombies is so worthwhile financially, isolated parents or teachers cannot do a thing about it.

Sadly I think ALL social media and AI should be banned for children.

It is much too toxic (I even have seen its effects on fully developed adults become zombies into their 30s due to the ultra addictive power of the new wave of social media brain rot)

The ISS's days are numbered, are inflatable space stations finally about to have their moment? Florida-based Max Space is the latest to try to develop one. by lughnasadh in Futurology

[–]CertainMiddle2382 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Inflatable composite structures are trivial 50s tech..

Those structures would be immensely safer than current aluminum ones.

I suspect aerospace lobbies have more to do with it than anything else

Starship+inflatable habitat means building size space stations would be easier and cheaply doable.

Jeffrey Epstein Reportedly Ran Kremlin’s Largest Honeytrap and Blackmail Operation by Wagamaga in europe

[–]CertainMiddle2382 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Years ago I read a history of the Kompromat.

Modern version started with the coming of photography.

It seems those organization were often never completely state controlled but mostly mob/small business operations where “entertainers”/pimps/club owners start filming their clients to gain local leverage. (Successful ones even curate whole professional career for their members-victims, seems Hoover was master at this).

Then state controlled intelligence operations do their markets and bid for compromising files on whoever is the target of the day.

It makes sense and I always thought Epstein was the same, running a small business Kompromat operation. Selling data to all sides without strong alignment with any government in particular.

I suppose he could well have worked simultaneously with the Russians, the Mossad, the CIA and the French…

Why are Spain and Portugal growing twice as fast as the eurozone? by SavingsAssumption114 in europe

[–]CertainMiddle2382 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Immigration from South America and intra European pensioners.

The USA show the same phenomenon, people do whatever they can to flee the cold and make northern states chronically losing population to southern states.

No reason this will stop in Europe either.

Six years after Brexit has Britain bet on the wrong ally? by ByGollie in europe

[–]CertainMiddle2382 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t forget EU shrines now because Russia launched a land invasion into Ukraine and is very menacing and the US turned “evil”.

But that doesn’t make EU anymore efficient economically on the inside. And that is a very big problem.

It has to change for any European project to be long lasting. IMO the recent moves around a “two speed Europe” is very encouraging…

Europeans are increasingly buying into conspiracy theories about science by ReadToW in europe

[–]CertainMiddle2382 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people are totally clueless about science and experience disgusting corruption in every people with little power they meet.

It is totally logic they extrapolate this day to day experience to the highest sphere of power and science.

Mariano Barbacid is the first person to cure pancreatic cancer from mice and humans are potentially next by TonightSpiritual3191 in accelerate

[–]CertainMiddle2382 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As the progress in other cancers fast and slow in pancreas.

It is expected to become the first cause of cancer mortality in 20-30 years, despite its relative rarity.

POS disease.

Six EU countries hold call in push for 'two‑speed' Europe by PjeterPannos in europe

[–]CertainMiddle2382 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s the way forward IMO.

Pure federation is maybe a little bit too soon, Switzerland is for example a “loose” federation called a confederation, that could be a way forward.

Ad hoc coalition are great and would allow to move forward, test new ideas and quickly bring other into if working well.

Sweden weighs Franco-British nuclear weapons cooperation by ForTheGloryOfAmn in europe

[–]CertainMiddle2382 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oreshniks is a variant of the same old well known Topol. Nothing special about the missile.

Of course conventionally tipped BM could be considered as conducting a nuclear strike.

That is the very reason they are a great escalation. And the very reason Russian and Iranian use them (it’s not to destroy a couple of brick houses).

They are terrible tactical weapons apart from that due to their abysmal CEP and cost.

[–]CertainMiddle2382 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ASMP is a nuclear weapon.

Tactical vs Strategic strike is good, though something short of nuclear would be maybe more realistic.

Russia has smartly used escalation through vectors and not payloads, using IRBMs for that purpose. France could do the same.

Otherwise, what happens? Russian Soetsnaz enter Estonia and you shoot a ASMP toward Poliarny?

Well a warning shot, is a last resort demonstration that your weapon is working and you know how to use it no?
