Irreni Introduction: What's absurd here?

Hi! Happy Thursday!

Welcome to YAII! Yet another Irreni Introduction!

This introduction is more of a question than an essay. I am actively in the process of writing another introduction regarding 2018 new government assumptions. Back in 1776, Thomas Paine wrote about some thought experiments regarding what kind of government a new government would be. Then he works his way along until he lands on a Democratic Republic.

I kinda am working in the same vein saying there are certain assumptions that will most likely happen with any new, post Democratic Republic government.

One of these assumptions has to do with the notion of representation. Today's system is completely absurd. How can the two Senators from California represent thirty-million people? Come on. That's stupid.

So then what? Well, can I argue that the MGO is the way to go? I went with thirty for many reasons:

  1. To safeguard against any one personality type dominating. A group of thirty will reflect a wide variety of human nature.
  2. Intellectual peaks. In a group of thirty there can exist three-or-four people of well above average intelligence.
  3. Sabbatical and abstaining votes. There will always be people who are sick, people on vacation, people who abstain due to limited knowledge, people who abstain due to conflict of interests.
  4. Sufficient economy. Imagine a spaceship or perhaps a sail-boat of thirty people. Enough skills and hands should be available to minimally survive. As automation and AI progress this will become even more so.

But is that the only formulation? No, obviously not. So I got stuck in the mental muck. Anyway, while pondering this dilemma I did made a meme:

 


Cheers!


Freethinkers unite!

Freedom!

Party On!

Let's get cracking!

Voluntarily Reject Demagoguery!

Politics as Science!

Demand Irreni World Scale!

Anti-theism is feminism!  

Think disruption!

Empathy for all!

Moral relativity: think it, breath it!

Prove it or lose it!

Conversations equal consensus! 

Welcome to the 21st century!

Scale your empathy, scale the world! 

Find your tribe!

Be sexy people!

The future is coming! 

Innovate at a rapid pace!

Slow speed ahead!

Well come! and well met!

You Need To Start Making Political Decisions

Image
Hi! Happy Wednesday! Yesterday Jimmy Carter was interviewed where in essence he was saying the US is no longer a Democracy, but an oligarchy. But that is actually being nice. It is corruption plain and simple. The US has become like Mexico, China and most other countries around the world. Corruption rules. I posted Carter's interview on Facebook yesterday and made two important arguments yesterday regarding Carter's observation: Root cause was scale. Our success has become our failure. Our success has been since WWI the US has become the richest country in the world, by orders of magnitude. In Silicon Valley we say that your success becomes your failure when something "goes viral", or the scale of growth quickly overwhelms either the company or the technology. Internet start ups fail because ten, twenty or even one-thousand times more web visits can bring down a site. Going viral means scale grows orders of magnitude too quickly to manage. This is ca

Irreni Manages Bad Reasoning

Image
Bad Reasoning Bad reasoning. We all have it and do it. Some of us more than others. How many times have we heard the average person doesn't understand finances? And yet everyone is expected to have their retirement invested? What kind of mad world is this? We demand financial savvy where none exists? It is almost as if the system is rigged to rip us all off while telling us it is our fault and we buy it hook, line, and sinker? The sad fact is we do let them get away with it because we do think it is our fault. Irreni World Scale manages bad reasoning. Some people may naively think that ignorance of something like finances is the only cause. Not at all. I know people with degrees in Math who buy lottery tickets. When I ask them if they know they are just throwing away money they say yes. On a more personal level I know I should be exercising but I don't. I guess in some ways one could consider this bad decision making over bad reasoning because I know the right answe

The Amercian Anthem: Drawing Cartoons of Muhammed

Image
Hi! Happy Thursday! Irreni World Scale is about solutions, not political punditry. This solution presented is how to think about the current national turmoil about NFL players taking the knee during the playing of the national anthem. No one can disrespect anyone unless someone lets them. That's worth repeating: No one can disrespect anyone unless someone lets them. What is the correct morality with respect to this national outrage? What is good? The Good: No one can disrespect anyone unless someone lets them. The Evil: Anything else. When I was but a wee young lad I read a couple of books that brought this point home to me. One is a book by Piers Anthony, "Xanth",  Worthless people's opinions are worthless. -Piers Anthony, "Xanth" Another book with a positive spin on the same message is, "Dorsai!", by Gordon Dickinson. I respect those people's opinion whose opinion I respect. -Gordon Dickinson, "Dorsai!

Introduction to the book "Irreni World Scale"

Image
What is Irreni? Introduction to the book "Irreni World Scale" Irreni World Scale is a political, scientific laboratory for proving claims of politics. What is Irreni World Scale? Irreni World Scale is new kind of governing. Irreni World Scale has nothing in common with today's central governments of Democracy, Communism, Socialism, etc. As such Irreni World Scale is going to be strange to you. It is going to be weird. However, don't let that stop you from reading this book. Just take a few deep breathes when needed. Perhaps set the book down when things get too weird. Take as much time as you need to digest things, perhaps even taking days in between reading chapters. What we obtain too cheap we esteem too lightly. Obtaining the understanding in this book will not be cheap because the worth is a heavy esteem. Irreni World Scale is not a central government. Irreni World Scale is not a "rule of law" system. Irreni World Scale is a distributed system that uses

Kavanaugh Debrief

Image
Kavanaugh Debrief Hi! Happy Tuesday! Who should you believe: Kavanaugh or Ford?  I don't know. One of my throw-away lines with respect to atheism is that religion is for people who cannot accept "I don't know" as an answer. I could brag that a religious inability to accept "I don't know" is due to a lack of humility. But that's not the case. The reason people cannot accept "I don't know" is that "I don't know" is unsatisfying, it doesn't satisfy to provide ground for traction to move forward in life. But that's not true. I don't know is an actionable and tractable answer, and so I give to you this debrief. For example, in science a hypothesis starts with "I don't know" as the only actionable answer to the initial hypothesis. The answer is only known after an experiment is run and results analyzed. So how is "I don't know" actionable with respect to Kavanaugh vs. Fo

No Party, No Government

Hi! Happy Thursday! <3 An excerpt from The Hitchhicker's guide to the Galaxy* Chapter 36           The flying saucer in which Ford Prefect had stowed away had stunned the world  [and] there marched from it, down the ramp, an immense silver robot, a hundred feet tall.      It held up a hand.      "I come in peace," it said, adding after a long moment of further grinding, "take me to your Lizard."      Ford Prefect, of course, had an explanation for this, as he sat with Arthur and watched the non-stop frenetic news reports on the television, none of which had anything to say other than to record that the thing had done this amount of damage which was valued at that amount of billions of pounds and had killed this totally other number of people, and then say it again, because the robot was doing nothing more than standing there, swaying very slightly, and emitting short incomprehensible error messages.      "It comes from a very ancient democr

Introduction: December 4, 2018 You ever wake up, roll over, look at the blue-glowing clock to ask yourself if it is time to start thinking?

High Tech Politics

Image
Hi! Happy Tuesday! Irreni World Scale is bursting with computer science principles to be applied to politics. Why? Because we humans know how to scale computers where both Google and Facebook have over one billion users today.  Irreni is a Silicon Valley political solution not just because of high tech advocacy such as The Data Center on the Moon or the Device of Life. Irreni is also a Silicon Valley political solution because it applies the design of scale we've learned how to practice in Silicon Valley where our politics today needs to scale but is sorely lacking in that department.  Yesterday I blogged about Greece and how Greece is a prime example of a failed state that didn't scale. Yesterday I offered analysis that failed states like Greece and Syria and Sudan are burgeoning in modern times because politics doesn't scale due to a lack of bottom up approach, a lack of people making decisions themselves. Today I'd like to take a further elaborate and take a mo

Legalize Prostitution? We Are Not Computers.

Image
Hi! Happy Sunday! Should we legalize prostitution? Yes. And No. We are not computers. There has been news lately surrounding Amnesty International's proposed new platform to decriminalize prostitution.  Should we? From the linked article above: But equally, critics and anti-trafficking activists say decriminalisation fails to take into account backgrounds of economic deprivation, pimp coercion and the intrinsic link between prostitution and sex trafficking.  Let us look at the word 'intrinsic': " belonging to a thing by its very nature: " This is not mere word parsing. Dogma can be manufactured anywhere at any time. And given there is no single world-wide religion and further given topics such as prostitution, abortion, and climate change are world-wide then expect rapidly growing non-religious dogma in public opinion. What is going on here is an attempt by the author to make human trafficking and prostitution one-and-the-same and t
