The research that this myth was pulled from is funded by the NHMRC, the health body of the Australian government. The same government that was literally sending people to camps.

Extended childhood means an extended period where ambition and will can be beaten out of the general populace. Why else would research like this be funded?

It wasn’t a warning, it was a vision. Look up who the Huxley family really are.

but I am eager to hear what anyone has to say about it. like really, in concrete terms, what is different that requires us to treat, say a 16 year old differently now than before? Specifically.

The industrial revolution and advances in medicine ended up creating a large amount of surplus humans that the banking and industrial overlords had to pacify in some way or another in order to maintain the stability of their world order. War was their go-to for throwing these people away for a while until nukes were invented and made large-scale war more difficult to conduct without causing irreversible collateral damage. Infantilization seems to be one of the pieces to their solution for preemptively eliminating anyone who might rise up against them. Hordes of people who would otherwise organize and behead their overlords will not do so, if they have learned to be helpless. Evidence available upon request c:

Compulsory schooling has often gone hand and hand with conscription and coerced labor.

Infantilized people are easier to control, since they subconsciously end up seeing authority figures as parents. I maintain that this was intentional from the beginning.

Glorified squirt gun operator (also STEM)

Even if they do that, it will be futile. Here is an explanation of why.

So far new reddit seems easier to scrape than I initially thought c:

Yeah :c

A good reminder for me to reverse-engineer new reddit’s backend once this happens.

Post-scarcity relies on complex global supply chains involving many different countries, and anything with that much complexity has inherent vulnerabilities. This is what lead to the bronze age collapse thousands of years ago. How would you make your system resilient against collapse?

Oh nice, you could probably fit a few GPUs in there if your case has room for it.

With the motherboard I am using (Supermicro X9DRH-7F) I get 6 8x PCIe slots, and 1 16x PCIe slot for a total of 7 slots. All of these are communicating directly with the CPUs, as opposed to some boards where the slots go through the chipset. There are motherboards with even more, but they are more expensive. I got this because I will need the bandwidth for model parallelism using multiple GPUs.

Also, the least power-hungry CPUs you can get for this board are the Xeon E5-2630L, which each consume 60W under full load.

I see. I only have mine because more CPUs==more PCIe slots.

Buy precious metals and XMR.

One of my systems has 2 CPUs if you ever want me to run benchmarks c:
