Changes

I see the world of changes going towards me and I am fine with it. Some are distinctly different, some seem mundane and similar. There is no real way to see what is what and the setting of what matters is not that important. I learned early in live that the sum of it all matters and how you impact it, it’s like standing on the axial of the seesaw. Impacting how you distribute the weight to make the seesaw going one way or the other. It makes you a game decider, a tactician. 

But before you think that I am so ‘important’ (I really am not) but there is a side that ‘haunts’ me. I am no politician, even if tactical people need to have a political frame of mind it is not the same. People like me are able the see the lie (perhaps ‘intentional miscommunication’ is a better term) and when we see ‘Steve Moore: US economy is blowing away other nations despite inflation’ we see the lie. When we are given “Unleash Prosperity co-founder Steve Moore joins ‘Mornings with FOX Business’ to discuss the state of the US economy, highlights strong investment numbers and argues that the US is economically outperforming other nations. Analyzing the U.S. economy’s strength, Unleash Prosperity co-founder Steve Moore joins ‘Mornings with FOX Business’ to discuss resilience against inflation. Moore argues the United States is outperforming other nations and notes that international investors are betting on America, dismissing pessimistic narratives.” (Source: Fox Business) In what universe is the US in a state of strength? President Trump keeps on missing the goals, making threats and bully his way through this world. At present US tourism is over 5% down, the US economy is based on a set of 6-8 players handing money to each other calling it economy. Tens of thousands lost their jobs in this economy and whilst we are told “The U.S. economy added 29,000 jobs in September 2026, falling short of the expected 90,000”, others like Indeed give the world “Now Hiring: 247000 USA Jobs”, they did this is 2013 as well, offering hundreds of ‘jobs’ in places that needed them, scouring the world for data. And now you see that this ‘resilience against inflation’ is so clueless when the US Tourism is losing to Europe, Asia and the Gulf states. Then we see ‘The U.S. Economy Just Delivered Bad News. History Says It Could Be Good News for the S&P 500.’ A two tailed story where we see “High interest rates have become one of the market’s biggest boogeymen. While the short-term impact can be minimal, over time they can increase borrowing costs, slow economic growth, and become a drag on corporate earnings. But those things occurring while economic growth is still healthy and earnings growth is strong might not be the worst thing in the world. In the current situation, slower job growth could lead to lower rates, but at the same time, potentially not slow the economy enough that a recession becomes a risk. If the economy can strike an equilibrium where inflation and interest rates fall but GDP growth and earnings growth remain positive, it can produce the ideal environment for stock prices to keep pushing higher.” The story sounds and feels true, but now we get to see the two-sided side. As I see the the US economy supports the people, and bad news here is not good news for them. It optionally is reasonable news for the members of the S&P500 and the additional “Long-term investors should probably just stay the course. The market has been talking about AI slowdowns and corrections for most of 2026. Yet the S&P 500 is up 14% year to date and the Nasdaq-100 is up 24%. There’s no sense in trying to predict these things and changing your portfolio because of it.” But the setting is close to changing, the setting of AI is fake (if you read my blogs you know the reason) the people are getting aware and we see: “Class actions have become a recognised enterprise risk, shaped by cyber incidents, regulatory scrutiny, shareholder expectations, ESG obligations and emerging technologies. Organisations can’t afford to view them as isolated legal events.

Our survey of senior legal, governance and risk professionals across corporate Australia reveals a clear shift: class action risk is increasingly viewed as a Board-level issue requiring stronger governance, oversight and organisational readiness.” The Law firms are aware. Herbert Smith Freeholds Kramer for one. So as the world of AI (Super Intelligence for Americans) is getting swamped with class actions (I need to take part in one as they are stealing my stories, which they call ‘training data’ we see a different story. The different story is that those in deep, too deep, implies that they need the train to continue so that they can cash in on their losses and make them other peoples losses. To see a ‘class action risk’ simpler as a ‘Board-level issue’ implies that they need to law to change, the law no longer suits their purpose. I reckon that first IP laws will undergo ‘changes’ so that the (as they say it) ‘the good of commerce can continue’ then they go into patent law so that these Predicted Analytics systems could score the roads and claim the IP of others and as such these 8 players get to claim the next generation of inventions, because those who create the items the next generation needs, these settings that will get them the  economy, the vaults and wealth of itemized goods. So, in one stroke, they get the wealth of the planet and they will all claim it was theirs all along. But the ideas that I (and thousands of others created) what happened to them? Should I just hide and keep it a secret? That is what they want. I fought it to make some of it public domain, they can’t get it in this way and there is more, whatever IP I create are some in some way expected steps of what was to come became public domain. I might lose the revenue of what I would have never gotten in the first place, I can rely on ‘the law’ to do me a thankless solid and get me the revenue for. My stories and as there are plenty of logs showing that a ‘few’ nameless people taken several times the stories I wrote (over 7000 times) and even if the settlement is merely $10K per story, I will be set for life and not just me, thousands of people will get to claim that setting and it is why the legal setting (according to them) needs to change. First they sack tens of thousands of people, trying to ‘pay’ for their upsell of revenue of these ‘fake AI’ systems and now they are losing so much more to all these class actions. Our benefit? Most lawyers are greed driven (they call it ‘billable hours’) and if they make enough hours, I (and many others) get paid. It is one way to balance the seesaw and shift that balance in favour of us, the victims of theft. 

But the setting goes deeper than that. You see, these ‘delusional’ settings of the economy will hit the American people. At present we are given “Share of Alleged Losses: AI filings represented roughly 13% of core securities filings, but accounted for 73% of all alleged investor losses measured in the period”, “Disclosure Dollar Loss (DDL) Index: AI filings accounted for $385 billion of the DDL Index (73% of the total” as well as “Maximum Dollar Loss (MDL) Index: AI filings accounted for $1.3 trillion of the MDL Index (73% of the total), with technology sector filings reaching $1,445 billion in MDL overall.” And as these are the views that are not just bad for Americans? They are disastrous. Because as I said, “(as they say it) ‘the good of commerce can continue’” but it is set to them (singular) not the people, not the nations. For them and them alone, it is “board room thinking” and it requires changes for that to start, continue and settled and all that is happening right now, but it can only continue if they have these co called independent consultants to give us a ‘braided’ story that steers clear of what people need to know to decide.

But in the end, we get to decide and see where we want to go. But in the end, we should choose and I chose this setting. What others choose is their business. Ron Herbert (Dune) once said, “He who destroys a thing, controls a thing” I really like this. As such I made most of my ideas ‘public domain’ including the military IP for Saudi Arabia and the UAE. No reason to get contracts out, they can just act on them, a simple solution. 

So whilst you might think my ‘ramblings’ sounds useless, but the path we are given is not that clear. And we are getting overloaded by ‘so called’ data and that is where the predicted analytics is being used. To confuse us, not to inform us, other systems do that and these fake AI systems can figure out based on the data it is given. So whilst plenty of people will tell me I am as ‘daft as a doornail’, others will call me crazy as a cabbage. But I feel that I am on the right track even if I cannot perceive the whole stage yet, and that is perhaps because others have turned out the light, so that we merely see the headlines. But there is more, a lot more and I am not seeing it all (I’ll freely admit to that) 

Have a great day today.

Off course

This is a message for all Torontoists (especially those in Toronto), you see you are in the wrong place. You are approximately 100KM away from your target. The CBC informs us ‘Polka King Walter Ostanek to tap keg Friday at K-W Oktoberfest’ and the additional part (making you in the wrong place) is “Friday’s keg tapping begins at 11:30 a.m. in front of Kitchener’s city hall”, the information was given to us all a few hours ago, but there is still time to get there (if you hurry within the speed limits) because you have 150 minutes to get there, which is doable. Off course if too many adhere to this message, the road to your destination will be swamped. And when we see “Polka King Walter Ostanek is set to tap the keg Friday at K-W Oktoberfest. He’ll be joined by Matthias Luttenberg, the German Ambassador to Canada. Ostanek, 91, has previously announced this will be his last Oktoberfest as he’s retiring.” And there is no excuse for missing his retirement party, and there is every reason to be there and buy a stein of beer. And see the master of the Polka give his last keg tapping and give him a warm applause whilst he is doing this. 

For me, I am a little too far away and the distance of 15,655 km can’t be overcome in 120 minutes, mainly because I don’t have the the number of Flash or Superman (I couldn’t find the number for Metropolis) and that is the only way for me to get there in time, so have a great day, give applause to Walter Ostanek who at 91 never failed to give tribute to the Bavarian way of life (we are all Bavarians in October of any given year) so let the beer steins be filled and let the beer maids service you for drinks again and again.

And to put it in a non-etiquette expression “Oans, zwoa, g’suffa!” and down the hatch that stein goes (optionally in one gulp) and in that meantime, give Matthias Luttenberg, the German Ambassador to Canada a chance to give the start signal (for several rounds) of the drinking event, because there is never one start signal for drinking during Octoberfest and come to think of it, you should not do this on an empty stomach, so call for pretzels and Weiss wurst, its only fair to try the other delicacies that Octoberfest has to offer. 

When it comes to these events, I whole heartedly go native in the events, even if they are held in Canada. So people from Toronto, do me proud and head the call of beer even if it is before 12:00 and it is on a Friday and I feel certain that this makes for the start of a great weekend. And keep your eyes out in case the PM Carney shows up, there is always a good reason for any bigwig to give away at least one round of that golden liquid 😉 

That is all there is from me, it is almost 03:30 on Saturday. We all have our crosses to bare and this article sounds more fun that writing about Washington DC and its Orange menace, mainly because (for all the right reasons) he was not given the Nobel Peace price, which went this year to South African jurist and former UN human rights chief Navanethem “Navi” Pillay. So congratulations to her and a happy non-winning applause to the other fellow.

So I still got a few words of world events in this blog today, the next one is in 15 hours. Have a great day.

The issue with grandpa

That is how I saw it and I was woken up to ‘Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra: An AI powerhouse with a RAM issue’ an issue that made me frown. So we get “the Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra has been unveiled, equipped with the Nvidia RTX Spark chip. There is no European equivalent of the starting price yet, with the $2,599 price tag from the U.S. serving as the best indication. For that price, you’re not getting a workstation: 8 cores, 24GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage. However, the built-in magnetic USB-C charger is included as a premium-looking feature”, no no that is not the world we live in. We see the reported “With 128GB of memory, which provides the AI workstation with a reasonable amount of RAM for sophisticated AI models, the Surface Laptop Ultra costs nearly $6,000. At that price point, another alternative has been announced: the Surface RTX Spark Dev Box, a mini-PC for developers that also features 128GB of RAM. Pre-orders have begun, and shipments are expected on October 16.” But then the article gives us the bottleneck. You see, it woke me up, because the is the same setting we had in 1992. A system dragged down by ram (different specs in those days) we are given “The problem facing the Surface Laptop Ultra, and many consumers, is the RAM crisis. Because memory is currently extremely expensive due to high demand, it isn’t necessarily appealing to purchase the hardware for AI on one’s own. The problem: since AI is then only available remotely, such as Claude, ChatGPT, or various models accessible via API, demand in that area grows, and the providers of these services purchase more memory. This is how the price spiral continues to spiral out of control. As a result, the entry-level model of the Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra is very limited. 24GB, although unified, is downright insufficient for AI. That’s the same amount offered by an RTX 4090 GPU; the difference is that, as a standalone graphics card, that chip operates much faster at the cost of significantly higher power consumption. But the rest of the PC still needs additional DRAM to run the system itself, so unified memory must strike a balance. Actually using 24GB for a single LLM is therefore unthinkable: the OS, other processes, and any applications also need memory space.”

For reference the MacBook Pro gives you 48GB Buy for $4,699.00 with 2TB of storage and this setting is what I call a flim flam option. Just give it a song with all the bells and whistles and se how that sails. So, as I see it, its kinda true to get “As a result, the entry-level model of the Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra is very limited. 24GB, although unified, is downright insufficient for AI” and there is the rub, the laptop is completely insufficient, but if they mention the high end of a component costing the same, it falls away. And when we see the added “But the rest of the PC still needs additional DRAM to run the system itself, so unified memory must strike a balance. Actually using 24GB for a single LLM is therefore unthinkable: the OS, other processes, and any applications also need memory space.” A setting of a NEW laptop where we see the need for massive required additions is not a new laptop, it it (as I personally see it) a refurbished prevue generation gaming laptop with a brand new logo. Is that what Microsoft has become? Old news with questionable hardware options? 

So with that the article switches to Mac, making it a ‘but they are in the same setting” and we are given “Ultimately, consumers have little say when it comes to pricing. However, there is a choice between Apple and Microsoft. The Surface Laptop Ultra is explicitly a counterpart to the MacBook Pro with the M5 Pro chip. The specifications for the entry-level model are actually very similar: an 18-core CPU, 24GB of RAM, and Wi-Fi 7. However, Bluetooth 6 is missing from the Microsoft model, which “only” supports version 5.4.” Yet we aren’t given that Microsoft apparently offers 512Gb (not unlike my Android phone) but Apple has a 2TB storage a 40 core GPU with 48GB gives you a lot more for that ‘price’ and of course there is no mention that upgrading to more memory is $400 for 64GB, the step from that to 128GB is however $2000 and for a thousand more you upgrade storage to 4TB. I am in the middle needing that, but I have different settings. And whilst a vlogger wants to make that jump, wielding Adobe solutions like a magical wand that you wave and shout ‘Firefly Permissus’ because that is what vloggers (apparently) need nowadays to get their numbers up.  As such the Mac approaches the “the Surface Laptop Ultra costs nearly $6,000” and as I see it, the specs of the Mac are decently better at that point (and you don’t have to shy away when people stare at the Microsoft logo on your laptop) but that is more of personal nature. But the setting of “24GB of RAM, and 512GB” is one that has thrown me for the longest time and as I see it Microsoft has something it pretends to be ‘the start of the upper class’ whilst it is nothing more than last seasons gaming laptop of Asus. As I see it Microsoft doesn’t learn, or its master in the boardroom is still unaware how the market reacts. And there is no real setting for memory, it is expensive, we see that and it is expensive all over. And that is not even the worst news, because that part isn’t given and we cannot blame the writer (or Techzine), you see, in other places we are given “SK Hynix warns of worst-Ever memory shortage in 2027” which implies that if you can afford it get it now, because the prices will go up drastically within 10-20 weeks. And that leaves Microsoft in a bind. Because that will make their Surface Laptop Ultra massively short and super expensive to make it fit. So, its not all their fault, they can blame their copilot for that. You see, this setting was clearly foretold with predictive analytics and as such with their (fake) AI. The fact that simple stupid me could see it shows you how shortcoming copilot is. Doesn’t it uses OpenAI’s large language models? And what exactly is Microsoft’s proprietary Prometheus model? It is OpenAI with a MSLogo? (I actually don’t know the answer here, I have never ever looked at Prometheus), 

it makes me remember that guy who stole fire and gets ripped asunder by eagles again and again until time stops. The image was better captured by photographer Carl Bloch (they were called painters in those days) although Zeus had a more impressive beard and longer hair (in those days). And in case if you think it is rambling. You would be wrong. You see, Microsoft wanted a cool name, but Prometheus was (by all accounts) a thief, a deceiver and optionally a charlatan. Out there for his personal ‘needs’, the one we name pride now. And it has reference as this is the same setting we saw in 1994, 1999 and 2011. Microsoft stating (in those days) “We do’t expect any additional needs” which is a reference for memory (and storage) all whilst they already knew that their is a bonus for the additional needs and we get to pay for that. And as I saw it (in 1999) Asus was already more than aware and giving us more than we needed. So I merely see a return to old stupidity, or perhaps better stated short stopped settings all for the good of bonus sales and when they have you on board, you can stop with what you have of give more. And when we see what is actually required (which we are shown with) “24GB, although unified, is downright insufficient for AI” and that should have been clear straight out of the gates so, why didn’t Microsoft properly address that from the start? 

Makes you wonder doesn’t it? Have a great day today

Originally made in Japan

That I the setting I came to when I was brainstorming for the UAE, well more for Miral than anything else. You see, if we are to call ourselves allies to a cause or a party, we should endeavour all we can for these people and I believe that we need to come to the aid (wherever possible) when we see useless actions (like bombing) by a terrorist state. And you can go home with your adolescent thoughts of ‘Iran didn’t do anything. They were attacked’ They attacked the UAE with 2,845 total projectiles a assortment of Drones, Ballistic Missile and Cruise Missiles and that nation suffered under that. Its tourism got hit and I am doing my little bit to get it back on track. And people will claim that the UAE does not care what ever I do and they might be right, but the action speak louder than their BS objections. Whatever happens is up to the UAE (and Miral in this case) I merely do what any decent person can do and that is to point them in a direction. It is up to them to consider that. It is all I can do. I am not some important person, I am not a Hightower or blow hard person. I am merely one person with an idea and I hope it come to the reading minds of those who do care about their country the UAE, it is all I can do and it keeps me creative, which is never a bad idea.

So the idea originally comes from Japan. They have these cards that you can stamp in all the places you visit. And you get a card covered in stamps and I reckon it is great for those visiting these places and it is (as far as I know) very Japanese. But the idea has merit, even in the UAE. But why copy the idea? It is a Japanese idea. We can alter this. Consider the YAS Card, this card can be used anywhere on Yas Island (and as nearly all attractions are managed by Miral it would be simple. So at any exit of any attraction you can swipe your card and (for example) it will put on your account ‘Road Runner Rollercoaster’ with an exit time and optionally a little text, but it will also attach an image of the rollercoaster view you have (perhaps 2-3) and a stamp of the ‘Road Runner Rollercoaster’ an image, not unlike

And yes, millions who go on that rollercoaster will get the same image. That is not what maters. It is engagement, because the 2,000,000 children who do will show it to their 10,000,000 friends. Engagement is the metric that counts. And these images (stamp like) can be added to any journal, any pages that these participants have and they can show the people they connect to on what they did (optionally on any social media). Engagement is the metric that counts, because it outflanks the trolls and thousands of voices in troll farms and that is the larger game. And that can be done in every corner of Miral, the Ferrari attractions, keeping scores on games in Sea World, even a tag on water world and that is merely the start. What do you think happens in 2029 when Harry Potter makes the entrance there, in (an expected) 2032 when Disney enters Abu Dhabi? By then this solution will have created so much traction that Miral will be ready in the stands when these places become active and in all this the people get the achievements on their free cards, bearing the logo of Miral and Yas Island.

Screenshot

And when we see engagement, we see the millions that are driving it giving the people something to think about. I reckon that the thousands of people in 2028 could be delivering the needed push for others to consider Abu Dhabi and Miral Entertainment in 2029-2030. That is what engagement does. Not the one person advertising what a great place Abu Dhabi is. It works, because we see it work, but we need to consider that the engagement metric is a lot stronger, because the thousands telling their tens of thousands of class mates what a magnificent time they had will globally sound to every household and that is what is required. So whilst some will be fearsome at present (like these bitcoin bitches) families will show that the UAE is be far the best place to be from now until at least 2034 and others will follow this example as well. I am not designing something new, this is established and other will follow this example as well. I am merely stating that engagement can be created in several ways and my idea is merely one of them.  

And the upside is that we are handing people creative tools to let them tell their story. And whilst they most of the time have the images of where they were, the settings of creativity tends to fall a little out of those borders. And I think that Miral can do more and perhaps should do more. This could be added by letting the local hotels add their own settings and whilst they might have dozens of identical images, engagement is created by the individual who selects these images. Now consider that Yas Island recorded 44 million visitors in 2025. How much more traction could have been created if these tools were ready? And a few kilobytes of data was ll it took. And it could be more by simply creating an app that every person can download and link to their card creating the graphics and optionally the text that any person could use and whilst this is done, Miral could consider what else is in play, because they are about to spend $545 million to $816 million USD on the Harry Potter extension doubling the size of their park. I reckon that creating the tools for maximum engagement is key to making this earn its merits back (money too) before they get to 2035.

When you consider how much power engagement has (against clicks by troll farms) the choice is simple and as I see it Miral has to up their game somewhat. 

Have a great day today.

By bus or by brain

That is what I was confronted with. I had to take the bus (too much to walk) and I don’t mind the bus, it gets me to relax (not as much as a train), so I was looking around and the bad of a lady caught my eye. It was a rather large circular clasp. A moment later a thought hit me. “What if it was not merely a clasp?” And my mind went on a little voyage. And android device (it should work on iOS as well, as such an independent developer could satisfy both markets. A circular device which was connected to a bak or messenger bag by a magnet. The clasp is charged wirelessly and optional (in future models) it could be partially charged by your mobile. So the device is driven  by getting paired to your mobile and as I see it, it could be operated by any widget your phone has installed. World times, Weather, you name it, it pairs and I reckon that the clasp has 256Mb memory so it doesn’t run out of memory any day soon (or if someone ‘accidentally’ puts every wedge on the phone) so charging is wireless, so we have no port connection, as such that drive is better protected against water. The clasp is paired to a mobile (I reckon that it the wireless charger is also a magnetic connector to the phone for restoring all parts it needs and initial pairing. After it is paired once it is set into ROM (Read-Only Memory) and contains the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity. As such stealing it is useless and only if a factory reset is done via the mobile can the clasp be freed. 

The setting is that the mobile can stay where it is and direct information is available. Too many mobiles are stolen as people get them out, this might prevent some of these thefts. The idea is too also incorporate text messages and make then readable through the clasp. Another method of theft avoided and as the clasp has a strong magnet connector, and if it is under the flap of the (messenger) bag as such safety is better and the fact that it is bound to the mobile, there are less reasons to steal them as such making the theft a hazard and not a form of income. In addition we could add on the mobile and on the clasp a sound to ask where they are, so the clasp could let the phone whistle where it is and the mobile could call out to the clasp (This idea already exists on Smart watches) I merely added the clasp to have that too. There is the idea to have a code setting of a fingerprint to access text messages, because that might be needed. The widgets are accessible at all times. The text messages, and optionally things like Google Keep and other personal controlled data not. But on route when you want to check weather, times and other settings you need access to a be accessed. You could add a control setting telling the clasp which apps are privacy controlled and which are not. We could leave this up to the user (which is always a good idea).

As I moved to my destination, the clasp made more and more sense. The people optionally getting of the bus could grab the mobile and run off. The optional clasp could set out an alarm telling others that it is a stolen object, there are more options, but I feel hesitant to employ these. I reckon that this is in hands on the Android/iOS operators. Still, the idea has merit as I see it, you see, not everyone os happy with a smartwatch. Some people embrace their Rolex, Breitling, Philip Patek or the upper class devices like Seiko and Citizen and people get really attached to their watches as such the clasp could also be an alternative for that reason. The setting is that the clasp is larger than the watch and as such could reveal more or information in a larger fount. Just an idea to consider. 

Anyway, that was my creative bubble working in the 37.8 minutes (roughly) whilst I travelled from A to B. Perhaps it is nothing, perhaps the idea gets others inspired to make the idea real. Well that is it for now. Time for me to see Megan make people run for their lives (the first movie) and perhaps it gives me more ideas, one can only hope.

A New congregation

The idea hit me a moment ago whilst I was watching YouTube. Videos on the Vatican, as well as (bad) AI movies on Star Wars and all these thoughts mixed a different setting. You see, I always believed that games are the best instruction methods. It won’t make you a Ranger if you ace all the Fortnite campaigns, but it can be used to instill abilities. One game that stood out was ChipBits (CBM64) and I heard that a new version was made on Windows by the original makers. I hope it works out for them, I really do. But these thoughts were mixing when I was considering a few things. 

Last week I saw some add that offered AI programmers over $400K annual, which sounds like a ploy of desperation, even in the height of Oracle’s needs, no programming DBA ever made that much money. And it is ludicrous to think so. Plenty of programming jobs exist and you can make a real decent penny, but not ever that much. Then there is LinkedIn with its Microsoft tethers and there are massive needs to get people on board in many ways, but I see them as hollow sales ploys. As a service minded person, I see the desperate effect of these moneymakers trying to get you on THEIR side and that is how they reel you in, then there is the setting of courses which will pull your wallet for several thousands and when you come to think of it (the small consideration that all AI is fake) we have a problem.

Don’t get me wrong Machine Learning (ML) is real, Large Language Models (LLM) are real (I tend to call them DML (Deeper Machine Learning) and we have Predictive Analytics and that is real and they are powerful tools, but Predictive Analytics has its own flaw because that is data based and data that is unvalidated and unverified becomes a real threat to that solution.

So where am I going here?
So when a place like Google offers a game not unlike ChipBits but modularly growing in several directions with additional settings over time (like trinary parts) and infill these skills of programming into a game letting the older youth (I think they are called teenagers now) get into that field completely set in a Google place of mind, both players (a Gemini reference) could grow actual skills without spending too much money. I reckon that Google could offer that for a simple $10 a month. Something most could afford, optionally it starts after you reached level 2 or 3 and you get the first three levels to home your skills free of charge. It creates traction and as such you could grow a population that embraces your solution without you having to push the fake AI setting, explain the ground works of predictive analytics, teach these gamers (aka students of life and education) the use of LLM and how to set this in machine learning. Now consider that the game will have partial settings not unlike ConfirmIT with a sort of Script setting that brings the knowledge to the ‘game’ and as these ‘gamers’ grow their knowledge you grow the population and create traction towards Gemini (and Google), the simple approach to adjust a good gaming principle towards a common goal most of us needs without draining them of their livelihood and consider what firm offers $400K a year? Where is the return on Investment? And I saw the same ludicrous setting over a decade ago. We now see “500+ roles are listed across platforms like LinkedIn Sydney AI Jobs and SEEK Sydney AI Jobs” I saw it a decade ago with DBA roles and I was told there were over 1600 jobs. All empty, no real jobs and it starts all over again. So now I am creating a setting where people trying to get into this field have a chance, properly informed and not some OpenAI/Microsoft sales talk to get you on board to THEIR solution. 

I think the idea has a shot of working, but I reckon it is up to Google to consider. Optionally Oracle could use that idea, but I think they have a solid training ground with their DBA trainings. 

Anyway, that was my idea to slice through the job BS that we are seeing now. Have a great day.

Just like that

This is what I was given a little over 5 hours ago when I was given (at https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c5j9x9pr0240o) ‘Pentagon stops using Anthropic AI tools after blacklisting company, BBC told’ with the subtext “The US Department of Defence is no longer using Anthropic’s AI tools, an official has told the BBC, months after it designated the company a supply chain risk on national security grounds. The Pentagon “has ceased the use of Anthropic products”, the department official said in a statement on Monday.”

We can speculate all we want, the simplistic version that I reach for is that all AI is fake, it is an advance form of predicted analytics and as I was able to set the stage of ‘Maybe we bomb Iran to hell’ (or something of the sort states by President Trump) all whilst I needed nothing more that the advanced statistical tools seen below:

An advanced statistical took invented by Babylonians 4500 years ago. And it told be that the US will have depleted its stockpile before that happens and it needs 3-4 years to get their stockpile up to date (that is if they have the dineros to pay for that all) and there is more, because a war is won by grit (in the very least) and I reckon that the tools by Anthropic told them as much and what does this administration do when the outcome doesn’t match their reasoning? (Im leaving that in the open) But the setting of National security is a laugh to say the least. The end of the article by the BBC gives us “Hegseth designated the company a “national security supply-chain risk” – a law typically reserved for companies based in countries that pose a threat to the US.” So what is a ‘supply-chain risk’? Im just putting the question out there, because if these are tools specific for the defense department, so either it will not or does not give the answers they need. Optionally it makes Anthropic the juiciest tool in their tastebuds, but the distancing parties are at least as intelligent as I am and they see that beyond the marketing all AI is fake (at present) as such what danger is there to national security? At best it is (under optimal data settings) a decent predictive analytics tool, under debatable settings (like I heard from my coworkers in Chicago) that certain ‘people’ gave them the run around with excuses like: ‘we’ll fix this on the backend’ or ‘we are about to get there’ and I reckon they never got these points settled, it was too hard for them. As such their national security is riddled with the GIGO laws in place (Garbage in, Garbage out). Now this last part is presumption, because I was never in the know. But it is the most likely of settings and anyone deep enough with Anthropic (or OpenAI) could see that in a near instance and that is where the trouble starts. As I personally see it Dario Amodei has a backbone, a hardcover, not a paperback like Sam Altman (I merely accuse him of being narcissistic, which is not a crime) as such the defense department is likely making a few changes in the short term (or if they are merciful on their data departments they will cut these fake AI’s all together).

I would prefer if they do that AFTER they pay Oracle for their services, but I don’t work for Oracle, so I actually don’t care. But it would be nice for Oracle. I am a decent bloke in that regard. As such the hardcover mention comes from “But earlier this year, the Pentagon pressed it to remove its safety guardrails from Claude and give the military unfettered access to its AI products.

When Anthropic refused, citing concerns of mass surveillance and autonomous weapons” which is a likely culprit, but it in not the only reason. I reckon that any media worth its salt has been pouring over the data chaps in the Defense department for a while now and as they are not as heavily dined like the people at Langley they might spill a java bean or two during desert to one of those Washingtonian women in journalism, but that is just me postulating.

I reckon that there is some truth that this US administration would like to blame Claude for whatever comes next, even if there is enough data out there showing that the GIGO laws are to blame and the people in charge are ‘assuming’ that the data is flawless when it wasn’t even close in the late 90s and in the 20 years that followed the mess got greater. Because from two faulty assumptions a truth can never be distilled and that is the one direct consequence why I am so intent on verification and validation. All results derive from these two truths in action and in place and as far as I can tell none of these systems have this, as such the predictive analytics are prone to errors, the fake AI can never derive anything from validated data and if there is no verification the faults merely increase. So what happens? Mass surveillance goes wrong because the the subject was non-caucasian and that is before we get the setting that translation errors of a passport come into play, the simple validation of a passport, a human requirement and all that is up for grabs as we consider the BBC article where Pete Hegseth is looking at the President like he is admiring ‘his Masters Voice’ (older readers will get that reference). 

And just like that we see another ‘failure’ (in a good way) hit these fake AI (or Super Intelligence) hit the world. So where are you in all this? I am merely asking, because we have a multi billion dollar device being outclassed by a $30 device not needing electricity. Did I oversimplify the problem here? Have a great day today.

Duress ignored

That is what is happening, it might merely be me, but in the first setting we see duress which means being forced to do something against your will through illegal threats, physical pressure, or intimidation. I spoke about that and the Republican Party seemingly thrives on that. And I spoke about that two days ago (at https://lawlordtobe.com/2026/10/03/myopia-ahead/) in the story ‘Myopia ahead’ I gave the setting on the shortsightedness of it all and now we see: “The U.S. international tourism market is facing a severe and compounding decline, on track to lose another 2 million overseas visitors by the end of 2026. This downturn follows a massive slump where visitation plummeted by 4 million to 11 million travelers (depending on how regional data like Canadian land borders are tracked), marking a 5.5% volume drop. According to data from the U.S. Travel Association, the United States has earned the unique, troubling distinction of being “the only major country in the world losing visitation” during a broader global tourism boom.” (Source: U.S. Travel Association and a few more), so as it just ended the FIFA world cup, the numbers (as reliable as I am aware of) gives us that New York City hotels that anticipated $150 million in World Cup revenues slashed their projections to just $60 million. That is a disastrous setting. And that is merely the hotels, the true picture which we might never see under this administration could be a lot worse. So whilst we consider Macroeconomic, we see “The Spending Deficit: International inbound spending shrank by over $8.4 billion.” (Source: CNN) and when we look at “When measured against original growth projections, Tourism Economics calculates that the U.S. will have forgone roughly $39.6 billion in international travel revenue.” Those are little rounding errors, this is a setting from which the United States will not recover in just a few years and in the meantime I see advertisements on TV and YouTube given us that we should take our next vacation in the United States. You don’t mind that I stand next to Canadians and say “No, thank you” and it is coming a global setting. The top line statistics are giving us: 

  • Canada: Canadian land border crossings and air arrivals plunged by 20% to 21.8%. This represents a pullback of over 4 million visitors from Canada alone.
  • Western Europe: Arrivals dropped 8.8% over the year, highlighted by sharp double-digit downturns out of Germany (-12% to -13%) and France (-7%).

This is huge and after NBCUniversal poured around $7 billion to $7.7 billion USD, these are not the numbers they are looking for and which Abu Dhabi gong full steam ahead on their parks, the bad news will keep on coming in 2027.2028 and 2029. In the bright side, for NBCUniversal it is all tax deductible, but for the US Administration it is bad news upon bad news. And as the setting seemingly goes, that good news will not turn into anything positive whilst President Trump is in power. It is bad news generated through shortsightedness and as I see it stupidity. 

And CNN reports “Republicans are defending territory they never expected to be at risk four weeks before Election Day, as President Donald Trump implores voters not to desert his party with the promise of more cash giveaways. A top White House adviser, meanwhile, argued Sunday on CNN that “partisan pollsters” are wrong that voters are hurting financially — a message that suggests a disconnect between the country and a president who boasts of an economic “golden age.”” As I see it, it is merely disaster upon disaster, you see when the EU members are looking towards digital ownership and the larger setting of national identity. As such these nations are deciding that Microsoft is out and so are the other ‘vendors’ of servers and as such we see that these nations are all about the national safety and that will happen in a short way, whilst all these vendors are out, the commercial setting alters, leaving them with even less money. So as Australia is now under teeth gnarling setting that will be picked up by the largest players in the Commonwealth we see “An experimental OpenAI AI agent gained unauthorized access to non-public files on Australian government systems, including the Services Australia Medicare statistics portal and NSW National Parks data, during training in June 2026”, my personal view is that this is BS (you know that stuff that makes grass grow in Texas) and when the population wakes up to the fact that there is no AI and that is is all predictive analytics, the question come out and that sets up a whole different wave of data, merely adding to the bad news. But as I see it, America thinks hat they will be alright because the President said that the golden age of AI is here. When that little light of falsehood blinks out, the rest of the bad news (likely in 2027) comes out and that is where digital rights will be all over the board and that will cost the United States, billion going into Trillions and that us all there is. How fortunate that I saw this two years ago, how the mighty fall. I feel sorry for two vendors Google and Oracle. Oracle will take a hit, but will continue, Google will be forced to alter its placement in all this and decide what software solution they will embrace whilst let their customers continue and until there are some massive chances to the U.S. CLOUD Act (Clarifying Lawful Overseas Use of Data Act) is a 2018 federal law that allows U.S. law enforcement to compel U.S.-based technology companies to produce requested electronic data wherever it is stored. And that will end Google to some extent. They won’t go broken but there data branches will face devaluation, oracle is in the same boat, but as their services are largely hardware based they will get a push and through there they will face the options of continuation. 

Microsoft? No idea and I don’t care, but they will face devaluation a little over two trillion (my personal speculated view). So whilst President trump did away with the threat, the G7 has a less optimistic view as such Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom are speculatively now looking into their own ways of blackmail and Tourism is a huge option. With the relaxed settings of the UAE and optionally Saudi Arabia too are now vying for the tourist settings and whilst Canada is now likely to get a real boost for winter games, those who prefer summer settings have the UAE and Saudi Arabia and as the UAE started the trains between Abu Dhabi and Dubai last month, they will get a massive share of that it is a trip that could be done in a little over an hour and as such plenty of tourists will go for that. Especially as it is a mere AED 39 (=$10) for Comfort class and the idea of having a vacation in both Dubai and Abu Dhabi is growing appeal in the EU (as well as the Commonwealth).

So whilst people think I am nuts, the data shows that I am correct and the better part is that others are seeing the same thing, as such investors are shying away from the United States and putting their money in Canada, Saudi Arabia and the UAE. And we are already seeing this as The Financial Post is giving us “Canadian investors sold a record $31 billion in U.S. shares by mid-2026, with over half of asset managers planning further reductions to rebalance home bias and focus on domestic opportunities.” Didn’t they call me crazy on that last month? So blow after blow is coming to the United States and all this as Q4 is only beginning, but this administration will give us some debatable setting soon enough and whilst we see another threat against Iran, as we are told that he may ‘blow up’ Iran, which makes me wonder if he has enough missiles left for that but I have no idea how many missiles the United States has. And the down by the ground me (silly me) am considering that U.S. produces about 1.7 missiles per day (roughly 620 a year) and in some cases (like the Tomahawk) its current output is roughly 0.25 to 0.5 missiles per day (about 90 to under 200 a year) and as The U.S. military fired over 850 Tomahawk cruise missiles during the first four weeks of the war with Iran, they will need 4 years to get back up to scrap. Simple equations and simple arithmetic shows that his threats are merely that, the bellows of a windbag 

(as some say), so when we ignore the duress, we see a United States that is no longer able to defeat Iran who is 16th on power scale and it is losing money in several directions, as such the replenishment of its infrastructure will take a massive hit as well. And whilst the international tourists are taking another direction. The dialogue the United States used to have with others falls away as well. As such we can ignore the duress because the United States doesn’t have anything else at present or nearly anything else. And now that nation is becoming the clear and present dangers of early all others allies it once had and whilst it thinks it can bully us all, we are learning that a bully is the weakest opponent of all, because I relies on the figment of what it once was. 

Merely a simple view I am holding, it might be wrong, t might be right. I will leave it up to you.

Indecent thoughts

It is something we all have at times. We are human and as such we have immature thoughts (except those involving Nina Dobrev, those are massively mature) but in other categories did you send a birthday card to President Trump today? It is world animal day after all. You see one mans thoughts are another persons food for vengeance and I am exactly on that setting at present.

A few hours ago I took notice of an event (at https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-10-04/houthi-saudi-yemen-iraq-middle-east-hostilities/107226524) where we saw (7 hours ago) ‘Iran-backed Houthis target Saudi oil facility as hostilities escalate in Yemen’, so who is providing these terrorists drones and ballistic missiles. The news gives us “Houthi-affiliated channel Al-Masirah TV reported that Saudi aircraft hit Sanaa with 26 strikes, after earlier reporting “Saudi aggression” against the Yemeni capital.” But the story behind all this is the fact that we are also given (at https://english.alarabiya.net/amp/News/saudi-arabia/2026/10/03/injury-damages-in-saudi-arabia-after-interception-of-houthi-missiles-drones) where we see ‘Injury, damages in Saudi Arabia after interception of Houthi missiles, drones’ and there is a setting that came to my mind. So as we see “Several attacks by the Iran-backed Houthis have resulted in an injury and damage to civilian property and infrastructure in Saudi Arabia according to official reports from late Friday and early Saturday. Fragments of an intercepted ballistic missile injured an Asian resident, damaged a prayer room and a number of vehicles in the Asir Province, according to the Saudi Civil Defense on Saturday.” I came to the thought that Houthi’s don’t have the options top produce any of that. And in that setting Palantir came to mind. If Palantir can analyze all the boats entering the Gulf of Aden, the Arabian Sea and the Red Sea weight get an actual handle on this setting. It will require a massive amount of number crunching and Saudi Arabia might have to add some intelligence gathering, but with every ship sunk on that roster, Houthi abilities might dwindle down and with the clear culprits in sight (I am not willing to blame Iran without evidence) we might get a handle on matters. 

As I see it, the press is useless, but their materials might give us a sight we never considered before. And I reckon that Palantir has the number crunching ability to make that work. There are more solutions, but by setting the manifesto of every ship in the region we could optionally limit the ships we need to set our sights to and there are plenty of methods, because most ships are set to turn a profit and when they do a few things that the timeline doesn’t like we get a possible target. And to be Frank (I am usually Jimmy) is there a better sight that watching this boat sink with all its ‘sugared’ cargo miles away from reaching that destination? It is merely a second price, the winning price is to use these drones and missiles and aim them at the Houthis. I fail to see the upside if they are not seeing the boom to start their party, even if they are the target themselves. 

So I wonder who considered that setting in toppling these smuggle operations. I am not saying it is an exact science, but to track the boats by other means than tracking ships radar trackers might be an idea and when we limit the numbers and whilst over 21,000 commercial and merchant vessels transit the waterway annually (averaging more than 100 per month) and these 100 per month could be tracked and from that image we see culprit, smuggler and optionally where they are off loaded. It is not likely that it is a harbour, but the timelines give is an insight of where to look. A simple thought that came to me in mere minutes (OK, I have a nautical degree and experience with this) but I am wondering how far Saudi Arabia took this setting and optionally there are ways that we can look at this (with the options to consider) how the smugglers keep the US Navy asleep. Because it is happening right under their noses. As far as I can remember they only ever found one ship with weapons (I think it is about two years ago) and now we might get a much more novel setting with one additional thought, but I will keep this private to me and Khalid bin Salman Al Saud, you can’t inform the boss of all this on the settings we get to celebrate on. 

It was such a simple setting, the setting is simple, the data acquisition is a lot less simple, but we have to start somewhere. So whilst the News channels look at the impact of Houthi terrorists, I looked at what could be done. Have a great day all

Myopia ahead

We all have that, put a decent heterosexual guy in front of a topless Alexandra Daddario or even the average nicely build woman and he gets a sincere case of shortsightedness, that includes most of the politicians. Although they see the price of wealth and power in a little higher esteem. Marketing builds on this case of Myopia bin all kind of ways. But what if that shortsightedness is delusional?

So in comes the BBC (at https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ck87zg8jnwngo) where we see ‘G7 to release millions of barrels of oil and diesel after Trump threat’ but is that the end of it? No, not by a long shot. Sure, it might seem that way, but the EU is now building new avenues and Canada is one of them, as such there is a short term relief for Americans, but the turn side is also blooming. The EU is ending whatever plans they had with the United States and I reckon that China is waiting in the isle ready to offer a less radical setting, because their goal is ending the supremacy of the United States. And as some say ‘The enemy of my enemy is my friend’ a setting President Trump should have seen a mile away. He is the the big beautiful solution to all matters. Basically if any solution has the name ‘Beautiful’ than you better believe that it will be absent of the name Trump. And as countries all over the world are going over any Trump building with fine toothbrush to see if they can find any irregularities, that building will most likely be scrapped. And as the United States ended its status as ally with the Gulf States, they have only two venues going for it. The first one is Iran (under condition that president Trump is put to death) and the second one is Russia. And a remote option is North Korea. Yes, that is a group that American citizens want to be a part of. So whilst we get “Donald Trump had warned he would ban diesel exports from the US if European countries did not agree to put more of their own stocks onto the market. That would have eased pressure on prices for US consumers ahead of November’s midterm elections, but pushed up prices elsewhere.” And that is where the Myopia really bites. The Trump administration cannot see beyond the midterms, even promising $5000 to every American who gets him reelected. But that is also the end of the game. You see the United States doesn’t have that much money left and the Diesel setting merely brings it to the top. And the people (those with half a brain) are putting things together. You see, what happens when the next threat comes calling? Because that is out there and there is a new threat coming his way. His secretary of War (who hasn’t won one yet and there is every indication that he will lose the one in Iran) is doing away with 20% of generals and these people have insight in politics, understand real negotiating and they will not turn Democrat (at least I do not think so) but the independent group in politics gets a massive infuse of non-Republicans and that ends the republican party right quick. I reckon that Bernie Sanders (Vermont) will get a likely massive back party, all with massive service on the US Armed forces. That is the setting of Myopia, shortsightedness and out of focus with the reality of things. 

And these generals will have a massive backlog of people that revere them. There will be no question on that. There might be a few that never played ball, but 20% is a massive entity and they bring hundred of thousand of votes, optionally millions and that suits Bernie Sanders just fine.

And this is merely the beginning, the road to recovery will take decades. Decades without the Five Eyes, the CIA will gobble up what it can, but they are out of the game. If only they had stopped President Trump before he got elected and the words ‘I just grab them by the pussy’ before his first election would have been that signal. 

Now the United States is heading for a disastrous setting and I reckon that PM Mette Frederiksen will be shouting hardest holding the EU flag, So when you consider that most of the US defense contracts will be shredded at a moment notice, all whilst the United States shouted that it sees NATO as a waste of space (well not exactly that), but we see that President Donald Trump and top administration officials have repeatedly characterized the alliance’s current framework as unbalanced and obsolete (source: Al Jazeera) and the United States is not very welcome in the Gulf States either. I reckon that the “China and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) member states (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE) have built a comprehensive, multi-layered strategic partnership that extends far beyond traditional energy trade” (source: The Middle East Council on Global Affairs (ME Council)) and I reckon that defence cooperation is only one step away and when that works the United States is out and now that China has the attention of the EU, the Commonwealth and the EU are a mere stepping stone. That is the effect of Myopia. It comes from a lack of focus and whilst President Trump is looking at the gold in the chandeliers, all whilst several injections have been placed and will most likely stop the President of making the White House the tackiest construction in the History of the United States we still see “The estimated cost of the development has scaled up from initial estimates to between $400 million and $600 million–$900 million depending on related grounds and interior updates, with the administration stating it is financed through private donations” So, who will visit that place? North Korea? Russia? Iran? I reckon the rest is washing their hair and polishing their crown jewels. 

This is the setting that was laughingly blown away (yesterday) when I stated ‘The end is nigh” which (as I was looking at Skyrim) was a decent intonation to make. 

The shortsightedness of this US administration is laughingly insane. And whilst the next administration spends its first three years cleaning up what the Republicans broke, the Republican Party will suffer defeat after defeat, when we get rather nasty settings like Jacob Anthony Chansley (born 1988), widely known as the “QAnon Shaman” who its now giving the world Chansley publicly turned against Trump, calling him a “fraud” and withdrawing his support due to dissatisfaction with Trump’s handling and release of information regarding Jeffrey Epstein’s client list (source: CNN) 

So when the image below is the most intelligent MAGA supporter, what becomes of the rest? 

Small questions and large impacts and the United States is looking towards massive repairs and most countries will not be answering their phones. I think the United States has a problem that will last long after 2030 and that is the setting for Huawei to kick in the doors, and more than likely in the age of data sovereignty the EU and the Commonwealth will open that door themselves as they are scared for what the fake AI tidings bring, because that is still developing and whist the AI vendors need to realise that their predictive analytics time comes to an end, the fallout we see is real and they just did away with tens of thousands of people, so how to fix that? 

So have a great day and watch the impact that will be seen in every corner or the world (a weir expression to use on a globe, but there you have it).
