Survival, Polarisation, Extinction and Alternative 3
Why does conflict occur?
Image an intense debate between two diametrically opposed viewpoints, where the vast majority of people fit into one of two major camps. This is called a polarised debate.
We usually refer to a bi-polar or dualism as the default polarisation, between two camps … though it’s entirely possible to have a 3-way split or even greater division. But however many divisions exist, psychological and sociological studies show, that people will tend to gravitate towards the most extreme of all viewpoints (hence the polarisation of the debate).

The stupidest expectation I keep hearing [rant]
When telling some people about my work on Open Empire, the same thing comes up again and again … and it just makes me wonder:
“before you asked me this, did you listen to one single word I already just said only moments ago?”
It would seem to be a no-brainer as to why these questions and expectations are unreasonable and stupid … and yet, people keep doing it … so I won’t keep you in suspense any longer, I’ll tell you what it is. Continue reading “The stupidest expectation I keep hearing [rant]”

Calling for translators
Hi everyone … I’ve seen that the reach of my posts extends across dozens of countries, even if the audience is relatively small compared to what I’d like … and I realised the language barrier may be contributing to this on top of the complexity of the subject matter … so what I was wondering is if I could hear from the following people: Continue reading “Calling for translators”
Hypothetical set: extinction probability
Question 1:
If you were a narcissistic psychopathic sociopathic and unscrupulous billionaire, with a vested interest in an industry causing massive catastrophic ecological consequences, that industry could not be reformed (because the flaw was fundamental to everything about it), you had no control over the alternative technologies, and there was enormous amount of social pressure to ban your industry … what might you do? Continue reading “Hypothetical set: extinction probability”
My programming background
I thought I’d just describe for you briefly what my background is with computers … and then if you imagine this in top of my spinal / musculoskeletal and other personal issues, perhaps you’ll understand why I’m simultaneously capable of such a large and complex vision, yet so slow in getting the work done.
