Jerome Powell walks into a bar.
The bartender says "what'll it be?"
Powell says "I'm not prepared to speculate on future beverage decisions, but I can say that the committee is closely monitoring thirst conditions and will act appropriately as the data evolves."

with everyone paying for shopping through a mobile phone, there is technically no reason why we should have a currency monopoly.

and those who want stability can always place their money in an index-linked currency.

the technology could with ease direct each payment to the appropriate supplier.

the solutions to the issue of ever-encroaching centralisation are those most criticised by the same media who never tell you the downsides to the alternatives. that’s just a fact.

gold is dismissed. CBDCs are presented as ‘financial inclusion’. yet no-one asks why ‘financial inclusion’ in practice means digital onboarding, nor why ‘financial stability’ keeps expanding into domains which traditionally had absolutely nothing to do with monetary policy.

holy moly! 9 hours later and we’re at 36! from 52 to 36 in 24 hours! great! it’s a useful indicator. i’ll keep heading that direction then.
rebounded to mid-40s, which is interesting. to me, that appears an adaptive management protocol, where they target impression counts rather than serving information itself.

the other thing of interest is that the most recent essay is now indexed, but L’Europe never showed up in this list when i searched over the past few days. to me, that suggests each essay is scored, probably in terms of how ‘problematic’ or ‘unsafe’ it is, and then weighed relative to other factors - a leontief input-output matrix driven calculation, no doubt.

what i have noticed since google’s de-indexing is that google driven impression counts have been reduced to numbers far closer to twitter.

i data harvested this a while back, and twitter de-indexed around april 10, when i posted the ‘julius wolf’ essay.

sitting on the fence about the grok verdict, but the common theme here does appear to surround the post-ww2 foundational myth, which is complete horse manure in my book.

i can see why that could be considered regime threatening, as the entire post-ww2 order is based upon this fairytale.

also somewhat ironic that i didn’t really investigate wilhelm ropke until now. because he’s perhaps the most consequential in context of ‘the third way’.

it’s an interesting choice of words, for sure

ok… so the end point is fixed, but we can choose how to get there?

so it’s a kind of spiritual ‘third way’?

like the political 'third way', where economic conditionality in effect subtly steers decisions

ok… so after spending 1 1/2 hours reading laitman’s book of zohar… the alignment is almost perfect.

yup, google's 're-indexing' has levelled out impression counts of google vs facebook and twitter.

google manage impression counts, not information. that's why it's gone so sh-t.
