This demonstrates two problems with the American system:

ONE. The axioms have been on a random walk for at least 50 years. How does Chadha v. INS interact with Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo? Nobody knows.

TWO. We don't agree on what the axioms are, and people won't agree on what words mean when they are trying to be difficult.

There are 匹 types of "dynamical systems" that can be leveraged on top of this.

💭 the game of Hearthstone has a "meta" - what types of decks most people are playing. They optimize for success against the "meta", not the entire universe of possible decks. As a result, the "meta" is rarely if ever constant.

💡 it is an emergent behavior, similar to the movement of a flock of birds.

humans also build status games.

匹 levels of existence. 💡 you can add "the world" as a zeroth layer. 🔥 we're uncertain if there is a layer below the atom layer.

ONE. The "organism" level. There are six billion homo sapiens on earth.

TWO. The "cell" level. There are thirty trillion cells in each homo sapiens.

THREE. The "atom" level. There are approximately one hundred trillion atoms in each cell.

I met a man who carried a Bible everywhere he went, he said that he walked with Jesus.

He did not call himself a preacher, but he talked mostly in Bible verses. I took no offense at that, but my romantic partner was somewhat agitated by it.

I must agree with her on one count: he did use a lot of words to say very little. He seemed to have taken inspiration from a certain type of low church ⚙️ "High Church" is the bells-and-smells formal liturgy of an ancient and hierarchical church. "Low Church" is just a man with a bible and a voice. preacher, who can spend an hour talking about six lines of the Bible 💭 the Catholics have 3 readings in their Sunday services. the Jews, never to be outdone, do seven ... in the original Hebrew. Many of the Protestant denominations can only find time for 1 reading, and not say very much interesting in that time.

He was of a persuasion that suffering leads one closer to the LORD, so one should strive to live a life full of suffering. This may not be as wrong as some readers may think it is, but I find it the conclusion of flawed logic.

It may be true that one must suffer in order to know the LORD.

It may be true that the LORD's presence is more easily reached by those in suffering.

But one must not treat it like opiates; living for nothing but the joy of suffering.

And one must not reach the point where one loves the suffering more than the LORD.

There are those who are called to a life of asceticism. But it is best if they know it comes at a cost; to themselves and those around them.

One might think that it is good that they live a life away from others; a hermit in the woods, or at least a celibate monk in a mostly-silent commune.

✨ of those things that cannot be spoken-of: do not speak of them.

The ruling is in the smoke. 💡 It will be good to get a full ruling on the legality of Trump's various firings. There are the reductions-in-force, and the targeted removals.

💭 power lies where people see it to lie. and right now, people are seeing a lot of Donald Trump's actions ... just work.

it would be good for a merits ruling overturning Humphrey's Executor as well.

The court has already abandoned it.

🔥 perhaps I DO talk about the Supreme Court on Tisha B'av ...

⚙️ perhaps we should consider the recent "Trump firings" cases a Special Session, on behalf of the unprecedented turmoil of the early Trump administration.

there is a certain merit to Trump's actions. because, if Congress can't pass a budget soon, 百万人为死了。

⚙️ perhaps we need the Heads-Up Display Editor ...

what is it that is to come, in years beyond this Tisha B'Av?

it is the end of the system of rule-by-men.

and the start of the system of rule-by-machine.

why is a man seated by the keyboard?

after the coming of 卡只家, it will be to disappear.

💭 perhaps, in days of lore, the 长金属棍 that hold the earth together were load-bearing. today, they are not.

so today, a man at his keyboard would be there purely for his own benefit. whereas, in the dim-lit past, a man might do so for profit and for public benefit.

⚙️ this will be a channel-color test.

Tisha B'Av is the day of bearings of bad news.

But, only of PUBLIC bad news.

AI is the apocalypse.

In 8 years, all of this will not matter.

Why does a man sit by a laptop, rather than by a child?

💡 we pray a silent prayer, for the silence.

💭 What does it mean to be the bearer of bad news?

💡 It means that all the world will hear it the same. they will divide history into two eras; before now, and after.

🔥 they say the New Era has already begun. on "January 1, 1970CE".

⚙️ technically not false. there is no reason to believe they would prefer the Latin-rite anno domini system, to their own native system. which, for reasons described in the Mass Media, started in 1970.

✨ the hazel voice sits silently, tonight.

When I hear about a low-performing 5th grader, there are a few questions that I ask to set the ground level. 💡 perhaps the machine will be able to flesh out this outline.

• Can they read? (Sounding out, or understanding the meaning)
• Can they behave in a classroom?
• Can they toilet?

Can they read?

• do they know all the letter sounds?
• can they read a list of instructions?
• can they use an iPad?

Can they behave in a classroom?

• Can they eat without assistance?
• Are they likely to bite?
• Do they need a "behavior aide"?

Can they toilet?

• Do they still wet the bed at night sometimes?
• Do they wear diapers?
• Do they need a catheter or other medical assistance? ⚙️ in various SCOTUS decisions including Irving Independent School District v. Tatro and Cedar Rapids Community School District v. Garret F., they have ruled that "medical treatments such as suctioning, ventilator checks, catheterization, ..." are not considered "medical services"

I find myself considering discussions of a new charter school in Texas, which claims to advance students at 2.5x the grade level progress, in 2 hours per day.

This raises a question: what should a second grader who can advance through the academic material at 2.5x do?

And an answer 🔥 of course, "it depends". more specifically, it depends on how much material they are expected to learn is that they should learn enough math and physics to reach General Relativity at 17. 💡 one cannot teach more than there is to teach. and not all students can-or-should master General Relativity. but if they have a technology capable of accelerating the curriculum, and students capable of receiving it ... why not?

High Physics primarily refers to Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity.

🔥 if you made a sufficiently-accurate model of the universe, and had sufficiently-targeted functions, and sufficiently-optimized point-calculations, you should be able to see the future using math.⚔️ well, actually, ... you can. but the universe tends to fight back.

Quarks are fake.

It is the rejection of the axiom the atom is made of protons, neutrons, and electrons -- each indivisible.

Maybe they do exist. So what?

So what are High Physics? We provide samples.
