prop 201: no
. should we stop replacing police with red light or speed cameras?
we should make sure cameras are used fairly, not abolished
because police have better things to do.
. anyone who is angry about automated law enforcement
thinks the laws are unnecessary,
and needs to get the laws changed,
or is thinking police are overlooking them
(enforcing the law only for certain types or races),
or is worried that the automated tickets are unfair;
eg, one problem is when entering an intersection
and then getting stopped by a pedestrian
so that you are still in the intersection when the light is red,
and bad judges aren't forgiving your case;
so, the solution is to get good judges,
not abolish automated law enforcement.

DARPA's automated internet disinfectant

6.4: news.cyb/sec/DARPA's automated internet disinfectant:
Mike Walker, DARPA program manager
on Reddit.com:

In April of 2014,  insurers started selling insurance products
that covered physical harm generated by cyber effects
-- Google "cyber insurance" "property damage".
In May of 2014,
Sky News reported that over 42,000 London cars
-- nearly half of the cars stolen in the city of London --
were stolen with hacking.
The networked civilization we are building
is going to need to be able to make
strong promises about the safety of software,
because it won't just be guarding our data security
-- it will be guarding our physical security.
If we're going to be able to make strong promises about
software safety, we're going to need automation
that can investigate software in a
uniform, scalable and effective manner.
We know that expert auditors can't get there
-- IBM/Rational points out that our civilization crossed
1 trillion lines of code in the early 2000's.
Operating systems weigh in above 40 million lines
under constant development.
The problem is too big and it’s moving too fast.
We also know that today's automation is
losing every contest of wits to experts
-- in the wake of Heartbleed,
not a single automation product has come forward to say
that this flaw could have been detected
without expert annotation or intervention.
CGC is open technology development
on the problem of software safety,
a problem seen by the DoD
-- and everyone with a vested interest in our connected future.

cybergrandchallenge/about:

. What if a purpose built supercomputer
could scour the billions of lines of code we depend on,
find and fix the toughest flaws,
upend the economics of computer security,
and level the playing field
between attackers and defenders?

co.reddit comment:

. a lot invested in the [stale] attack/defense model
of computer security competition.
I've heard arguments from many players
that the current model of attack/defense CTF
[capture the flag competitions] is "stale". 

Mike Walker:

. great innovation is happening in the CTF community:
see Build It / Break It / Fix It,
funded by the National Science Foundation.

6.7: my response:
. what is stale is the attack/defense model;
because, the chip firmwares have backdoors;
you need to secure the hardware;
then you can analyze the software;
but, at least with DECREE
they are promoting a microkernel OS
that can guarantee isolation between app's?
(well, the interface is tiny, if not the Trusted Code Base).
. unfortunately what they have in mind
is to use their simple OS only for
easily managing the budding automation competition;
then they plan to evolve the winning buds
for auto-fixing today's software on today OS's.
. but, what can they do for firmware breaches?
. they are trying to show concern about cybercrime
without actually blocking the backdoors used by NSA .

HR 3865 -- the Stop Targeting of Political Beliefs by the IRS Act of 2014

5: co.pol/HR 3865 -- the Stop Targeting of Political Beliefs by the IRS Act of 2014:
urge your congressional representatives:

I was pleased to see HR 3865,
the Stop Targeting of Political Beliefs by the IRS Act of 2014.
.
The IRS's proposed rules would censor
what 501(c)4s can tell the public.
For example, communicating anything about a candidate
within sixty days before a general election
or thirty days before a primary election
would be considered "political activity."
Any past reference to the candidate on a website
would also have to be deleted.
.
This means an elected official can
introduce legislation sixty days before an election
with the assurance that voter groups
cannot even talk about it.
.
Please vote Yes on HR 3865.
These rules will have a serious impact on our democracy.

12.12: news.cyb/sec/linux/nsa forces Torvalds' hand?:
rt.com:

. MIT-educated cryptographer and Linux developer
Theodore Ts'o stated publically that
he was happy with his decision to resist
earlier pleads from Intel engineers
to have that operating system commit entirely to
RDRAND [intel's on-chip routine] for encryption:
"Relying solely on the hardware random number generator
which is using an implementation sealed inside a chip
which is impossible to audit
is a BAD idea" . Now just three months later,
FreeBSD is rescinding their reliance on Intel and Via’s RNGs.
[by contrast:]
When a petition began circulating in mid-Sept
imploring Linux to stop relying on RDRAND,
one of the OS’s leading developers, Linus Torvalds,
called those who made those pleads "Ignorant" .

USA intel has SOA on High-Security Internet

9.11: news.cyb/sec/USA intel has SOA on High-Security Internet:
Sept. 11, 2013

Al Tarasiuk, intelligence community CIO
and assistant director of national intelligence .
. the IC ITE ( Intelligence Community
Information Technology Enterprise )
is a new IT environment that will
vastly improve information sharing
across the intelligence community .

. consolidating IT across the community
was driven by budget considerations.
But today,
it's more than an efficiency play on IT:
intelligence integration,
information sharing and safeguarding .
. that translates into 3 goals:
1: effectiveness,
2: security
3: efficiency .
"In the past, these were mutually exclusive,
but now we'll have more of all 3 goals
because of cloud technologies,
and a [SOA (service-oriented architecture)]
or "service-provider-based business architecture"
providing an IC cloud not on the Internet,
but privately hosted on TS|SCI networks
(top secret / Sensitive Compartmented Information)

[18:
. high-security wide-area networks are
connected by Tesla beam transmissions,
which unlike fiber optic cable,
can be transmitted wirelessly,
and are very difficult to intercept .
. the govt denies this technology even exists,
but they've used it to communicate with submarines,
and a chinese-american collaboration is developing it .]

Ventura challenges psyop#911bluepill

11.29: news.pol/purges/controlled demolition/
Ventura challenges psyop#911bluepill:
. former governor Ventura says
9/11 is an obvious controlled demolition;
see also Ventura dustifies
Shawn Hannity's 9-11 .
. Ventura's related books include:
# 63 Documents the Government 
Doesn't Want You to Read
# Don't Start the Revolution Without Me!
# American Conspiracies: 
Lies, Lies, and More Dirty Lies
that the Government Tells Us

. some say Ventura "failed" as governor?
well, only in the same way Obama is:
gridlock:

Lacking a party base in Minnesota's
House of Representatives and Senate,
Ventura's policy ambitions had little chance of
being introduced as bills.
. Ventura was questioned by the CIA
about how he became governor
(same mafia that selects CIA agents?).
Initially, Ventura's base feared his vetoes
would be overturned.
He vetoed 45 bills in his first year,
and only three of those vetoes were overridden;
but, in his fourth and final year,
six of his nine vetoes were overturned.
Ventura was often successful;
One of the most notable was the
rebate on sales tax in times of budget surplus .
Later, he came to support a
unicameral (one-house) legislature,
property tax reform, medicinal marijuana,
gay rights, and abortion rights,
while opposing the death penalty.
. he generously funded grade school education,
but did not have a high regard for
public funding of higher education,
and he opposed the teachers' union .
. he advocated a higher role for
third parties in national politics,
and favored the concept of instant-runoff voting.

witches, queers, and schiz', oh my!

6.1: co.apt/med/psychiatry/corrupted by mobocracy:
. our forefathers thought that you could tell a witch
by their being undrownable;
if they died, you killed an innocent
-- but that was justifiable collateral damage
in the war on witches!
. modern psychiatry until the 70's
had diagnosed homosexuality as mental disorder;
because it was indeed causing mental disorders
to many around them,
but politically you couldn't say most people are
mentally ill on exposure to homosexuality,
so they simply cheated the queers .
. the opportunistic mainstream gov's
or their tools of control, like psychiatry,
were caught lying about witches and queers,
and they are still lying about schizophrenics:

piracetam quality lacking

6.9: web.wealth/piracetam:

summary:
. I've had many leary perceptions of the racetams
as others said their effects were too subtle
to risk spending much money on .
. but I'm very impressed from today's research
that they cleared aging spots in the brain
(levels of lipofuscin in the rat brain).
however
. I was concerned that the FDA doesn't allow
sale of Piracetam in the US as a dietary supplement;
I think that means there is no reason to sell you
USP or Food Grade quality;
everyone can save $hundreds on technical grade,
but what are the contaminant levels?
for instance, my contact for high-grade stuff is
www.awscientific.com:
they'll sell me anything spectrumchemical makes;
but again, when I check spectrum's site,
the EP* grade requires regulatory approval .
* [EUROPEAN PHARMACOPOEIA
europe's equivalent to our verified food grade .]
. the grade being sold on the street is this .

americanselect.org is doomed without IRV

6.10: summary:
. americanselect.org is trying to support 3rd parties,
but there was so little interest in the available
3rd-party presidential candidates
that they decided not to enter one on the ballot .
. americanselect.org's mission was doomed anyway
unless they could mandate the use of
IRV (instant runoff voting)
because otherwise, their 3rd-party candidate
will simply be viewed as a spoiler .
. there is another way to help 3rd parties,
but it is very expensive, and unreliable:
make sure that everybody has access to the internet,
and can easily participate in mock elections
where they can gain confidence in a 3rd party .
. the mock election would feature IRV,
and we could see from that election
whether any 3rd party has the popularity needed to win .
. but a mock IRV still suffers trust issues:
how do I know that those who
claimed to be a 3rd-party supporter
will actually follow through during the actual vote?
voters of a 3rd party in the mock election
may be sincere,
but if they can't trust that voters will
behave the same as in the mock election
then they may fear voting 3rd party in the real election
and this inconfidence may cause the spoiler effect .
. another scenerio is
strategic lying during the mock vote;
in order to encourage the spoiler effect .

#gov nutrition label for allergenic #gmo:

proj.pol/gmo/#gov nutrition label for allergenic #gmo:
Subject: Docket No. FDA-2011-P-0723
U.S. Food and Drug Administration
President Barack Obama
(emailed by gefoodlabels.org)
. I write in support of the Center for Food Safety's
Legal Petition to FDA to Require Labeling
of Genetically Engineered Foods
(Docket No. FDA-2011-P-0723).
FDA believes that GE foods are
“of the same or equal quality”?
how can random shifts in genetic code
not create inequal amounts of
random new proteins,
including allergens ?! this is appalling .
. if you put it on the label,
then people who think they have allergies
can try non-gm and see it was gm .
. that nutrition label needs an upgrade anyway:
you need the food's glycemic index,
glycemic load, and the amount of
any sugars that require liver processing,
especially fructose .

mired if the savior succeeds

6.29: pol/obamanomics/
we're mired if the savior succeeds:

. Obama spoke to the people about the
repub's obstructing a debt limit raise
for this strange low point involving
both a depression needing gov jobs,
and a jobs-saving bail out of many industries
who were mass-rolled by an unregulated,
shark-tanked finance sector .
. he spoke of congress as if they were
one entity -- ignoring the usa habit of
punishing one party by
voting in the opposite party .

. that opacity was to substantiate his
next point:
the debt limit is not an issue of
what to buy;
these are bills that one congress
has already agreed to pay;
and now the issue with this limit is
which bills would they prefer to pay ?

. bond interests to chinese loans?
or social security checks?
-- that kind of choice
( this example could be reminding us
that we could avoid these chinese loans
by agreeing to pay more taxes;
but there's no use asking for taxes now:
a good gov gets a surplus in good times
and these times are not those times).

. doing more to promote employment
would ease our unemployment costs
and contribute to the tax base;
conversely,
if markets become spooked by news of
a usa who suddenly won't pay its bills,
that could be very bad for jobs .

. Obama is not addressing
the main issue:
repub's are trying to force a smaller fed
by strangling its income:
both taxes and loans are being restricted
at a time of depression in which
the only savior in town would be
the gov taking out loans to create jobs .

. yet the conservatives may be
indirectly correct:
what if there really is
no savior possible because
if you dig us out of this depression
we'll only worsen the main problem:
it's a fluff economy trying to
fig-leaf an overpopulation problem .
. free parenting must think we asked for
more free employees
or revolutionaries .

pop'con strike you as
racist or commy?

. free capitalists already have
what they want,
so how could the next revolutionaries
possibly be up to some good?
. what is there to want
after you've asked for free capitalism ?
. we desperately need help with
either lowering population growth
or distributing wealth .
. lowering population growth is so taboo
that conservatives can't even mention it;
any time they want to say something like

"(conservatives will put pressure on
lowering population growth)

they instead speak about
how liberals must be kept from
distributing wealth .
. any time conservatives want to say

"(conservatives will now engage in
acts of lowering population growth)

they remind us that conservatism is about
reducing gov regulation and oversight
of occupational hazards,
foods that cause cancer and heart disease,
energy sources that raise mercury levels,
and a get-em-movin' traffic light system
that kills 40,000 per year
when they could instead use
a rotary or roundabout
see how that works
for conservatives?
spend tax dollars this year
or kill an entire usa town
every year ... .
. conservatism may also be big on wars
but they aren't the only ones;
and, being giants of high-tech,
our wars hardly put a dent
in our population growth .

. there's a popular delusion that
strong family values built this country;
in fact,
the overcrowding in our mother countries
was landing desperadoes into a huge land
with no recognizable people in it !
the luck of the pilgrim was
nothing more than instant depopulation:
resources per person were infinite;
everyone had a job packaging resources .
. but a capitalism that is run well
should run us out of all jobs
within a century (welcome home).
. the next big thing will be
floating cities on oceans,
and defending the land-based cities
with solar-energized robotics .
