This material risk is not currently reflected in market prices, nor transparently disclosed to all prospective buyers. However, you are now explicitly made aware that:
The actual risk-adjusted value of the properties may be significantly lower than current market valuations;
Failure to disclose these risks to potential buyers may constitute material omission, actionable under consumer protection, tort, or fraud statutes;
You are now under obligation to either:
Provide a full written and verbal disclaimer of these environmental risks to every client and counterparty; or
Refrain from further market activity in these assets, recognizing that continued participation now implies willful exposure to and transmission of this risk, with possible civil and financial liability.
You cannot claim ignorance of these risks from this point forward.This species constantly gets high on idealization of others and self-idealization, constantly crashing and burning from the unrealistic plans it makes with this unrealistic self-image. And it is unable to learn from all these retardations. We are not really governable and thus fail as soon as push come to shove. And we then try to bury this lessons - without learning anything from them. What good is it to have a Fauci, if his plans do not have the actual behavior of the humanity baked in when the great plague hits? What good is it to invade another country, to build a democratic state - when you do not have a realistic behavior model to build a democratic state with other cultural backgrounds.
What good is it to wish for socialist economics, when it all boils down to centralized authoritarianism with witch hunts and collapsing economy.
Palantir is just the messenger for a uncomfortable message. We are not ready at all, not ready for climate change, for singularities, for high-tech where one can destroy half the planet. We are not ready for going off-planet, which is one and the same.
What is needed, is not unrealistic SciFi Visions, but basic measures to raise survive-ability of the species in crisis to come. Decentralize knowledge, create a panopticon by the people for the people, so order can be upheld even when the state collapses. The scenario-tress roots must be hardened, so we dont fall down never to recover.
I know, the e-destructions are there to make a society of 8billion "happy" as can be without ravaging the planet, but the life this creates is absolute misery. I rather prefer death or war to that.
A totalitarian ideology throwing its own future into the furnace, not for a tomorrow (all the fertilizer was ammunition, they had sentenced themselves to starvation) but for the hope of killing all your enemies one last time.
How can one venture this deep into defending this regressive madness is beyond me. I hope you heal from whatever hatred is devouring you.
In my eyes, ecological historicism is just another sin, wasting precious finite resources on keeping up a facade. It would be much wiser, to take specimen from the developing bulb-belt and transplant them up the lattitude to near similar developing bioms, trying to breed them to survive the winter that now befalls there "migrated" biom.
Let the wulves fight for their own survival in this mess and remove protection status. The ground is moving, no sense in building cabins and planting trees on it. Cosplaying nature while sacrificing saveable species seems absurd to me.
Privacy was a luxury we had, while we could bribe the better angels of our nature with the surplus of the past and while technology was something, that did not scale.
Now a terrorist could take a army of tanks while besieging a city. All the other justifications for a Panopticon are flimsy, but the fact that technology - our savior from savagery, has turned around and bit the hand it was supposed to feed, justifies the thing.
Thus introducing the ToDODOs - which is a attempt to hold memory of important tasks facing extinction through cooperate dementia, which those who hold idealistic views of the stakeholders while engineering processes have no living memory of due to job hoping.
From the monk in the monastry to Turing hyper-focused on an enigma there is clear line. Its a ugly recipe, but its working, unlike all those other societies out there, who are currently eating themselves. A judge doesn't dress like a priest for no reason.
Sexual caste slavery or anarchy- thats the choices.
Especially, as automated construction has very little to do with "copy human" constructors and replicate and all todo with abstract the environment away and get it done. Meaning, you will want classic autonomy with excavators and trucks and concrete trucks - until you have poured the base plate for a house.
Then the best approach still is, to have basically a factory for pre-built components and assemble them on site. The "doing constructor things" with machines on site- does not scale.
This is why pushing for new code, rewrites, new frameworks is so popular. https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2000/04/06/things-you-should-...
So a ton of ai-generated code- is just that, never read. Its generated, tested against test-functions - and thats it. I wouldn't wonder, if some of these devs themselves have only marginal ideas whats in there codebases and why.
Low-thrust societies can not be repaired by topdown level commands. All that happens, is yet another paint job, another face restoring measurement, while the rot behind remains the same.This is not some "aberration" from the fringe of the Chinese empire- this right here, is a sample of its core values under the CCP, undiluted by propaganda cosmetics.
No, war is upon you whether you choose it or vote against it. It takes one defector to set the world order ablaze!
