  1. Hyperdemocracy and the gnostic impulse. The philosopher Voegelin said the same thing about the massive death toll toll and destruction that comes from the idea that humans are perfectible and that utopia can be reached. There is no limit to the amount of eggs that must be broken towards the great sacred omelette

  2.  @thomasbonnett4800  Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, is a six-volume work by the English historian Edward Gibbon. Gibbon did not have a degree in history. Neither did Oswald Spengler who wrote the famous historical work, The Decline of the West. Nietzsche did not have a degree in philosophy. Nor did Aristotle or Plato

  4. In computer science, thrashing occurs when a computer's virtual memory resources are overused, leading to a constant state of paging and page faults, inhibiting most application-level processing. This causes the performance of the computer to degrade or collapse. The situation can continue indefinitely until either the user closes some running applications or the active processes free up additional virtual memory resources.

  7. Sustainable Energy - without the hot air by David MacKay is a high level physics analysis on why "green energy" is impossible for the UK without a serious degradation in quality of life (not enough energy to extract from the environment due to its high latitude location).

  8. I was very active discouraged from studying computers by my parents - to the point of actual prohibition. And even by my hs guidance counselor. This was in the 80's before they were the cool thing. In fact, I don't think computers were very accepted by society until maybe myspace came along or around that time.

  14. Undercover Recordings used to be a big thing and selling point for news channels...'watch this undercover reporting of a mechanic ripping off customers'...'watch as our cameras show you what really goes on in a meat processing plant'...'you'll never believe how these workers are treated'. What happened?

  21. Heating costs are 20X cooling costs. There are 20X more deaths due to cold than deaths due to heat. People lived in Phoenix AZ for hundreds of years before air conditioning. It's one of the longest continuously inhabited places in the Americas.

  23. Birth rates are below replacement levels. Civilization will collapse, nothing can stop this. When the ordinary thought of a highly cultivated people begins to regard 'having children' as a question of pro's and con's, the great turning point has come. --Oswald Spengler

  31. “We are born into this time and must bravely follow the path to the destined end. There is no other way. Our duty is to hold on to the lost position, without hope, without rescue, like that Roman soldier whose bones were found in front of a door in Pompeii, who, during the eruption of Vesuvius, died at his post because they forgot to relieve him. That is greatness. That is what it means to be a thoroughbred. The honorable end is the one thing that can not be taken from a man.” ― Oswald Spengler, Man and Technics

  46.  @jamesl2846  There was an experiment that I remember seeing as a kid. Electrodes were implanted in a rat's brain. If the rat pushed on a lever it would get a shot of dopamine through electrical stimulation. The rats stopped eating and drinking and only kept pushing lever until they died
