The Nyquist-Shannon Sampling Theorem
States that to accurately reconstruct a continuous signal from its samples, the sampling rate must be at least twice the highest frequency component present in that signal
Underpins so much today: statistics (truth), modelling, audio, imagery

Was asked by Apple what I thought of the latest cameras and my comment was will Apple images be historically accurate?
No AI in RAW!
I do own a 17 Pro Max, and have some reservations on interpolation in RAW images.

Should the Federal Anti-Nepotism Statute be active right now?

The Nazi Playbook
🔹 Exploit crisis to gain legal power
🔹 Fabricate/embrace emergency to suspend rights
🔹 Pass laws granting dictatorial powers
🔹 Crush all opposition parties & unions
🔹 Seize control of press & courts
🔹 Use terror to silence dissent
🔹 Consolidate total authority
Checks Fail->Tyranny
Reminder of the core tenets of democracy:
Free and Fair Elections
Rule of Law
Independent Judiciary
Free Press and Media Freedom
Separation of Powers
Protection of Civil Liberties
Political Pluralism
Citizen Participation
Transparency and Accountability
Constitutional Framework
Keep these in mind
And throws away centuries of effort in building a rigorous scientific framework for validation of data?
If the article was validated scientifically it does not need to be pulled and no political agenda should affect its publication.
Unless coercion and manipulation is a factor that is!
Not a Trump "ReTruth"
Its written by someone who has a good command of English, is not ranting like a pathetic little sh*t in a school yard.
Doubt its his press secretary then!
No functioning biosphere=no life on Earth
Less functioning biosphere=less biodiversity on Earth
Dont give a damn about economics, what about the environment?
Do everyone have a LOT cleaner air at the moment as there is about an 80% reduction in aircraft in the last weeks near me?
I can actually smell the spring this year, like also in COVID times
Why should it take a war or pandemic to show what we lost?
Our environmental protections are clearly crap
Why did so many people forget how to feel?
Is it those recommendations by your leaders to throw empathy out the window?
What about not doing as a valid alternative.
Not digging up resources
Not destroying Natural Habitats
Not building fossil industries
Not making gas automobiles
Not wiping out novel DNA from every ecosystem
then
Building a more sustainable common future
Using resources sensitively
CARE
Next thing to watch is what Japan does with USD Bonds.
If they start dumping those then its over for the USD, all the trillions of debt will start getting called.
Welcome to China!

This is lovely, some adults in this world have forgotten their childhood and what it felt like
And that as adults, have a duty to show our children the light and teach respectful values to protect all life
These guys who ever they are, are great, the kids are so engaged 😉
I wonder how much of what this article talks about is “conscious”
Influence: via the news, politics and financial - Trump can manipulate
So he flips frequently and this approach is not important to him
The end goal is enrichment for himself, his family and his friends and its just opportunistic
I have a strong sense this is his AI persona, most likely trained by X/Musk. Its now too consistently demented, so it like a LLM is writing this.
I just tried a crystal ball with an AI on the Iran issue:
Quite illuminating replies when I asked what is the likely response if both sides have no empathy or respect:
Meanwhile our good friends from Ukraine die and suffer because of the pathetic potus and his megalomaniac buddies.
We then waste billions on what? Stinking arms industry?
Bolstering and supporting tyrants is a very bad idea. But maybe not from inside the Fck Everyone Tyrant Club?
@mayor.nyc.gov for POTUS!

There may not be an increase of inflation, but there will be an increase of the gap between the wealthiest and poorest people on Earth.
Crucuially the investors in this tech who are not forced to pay for their gain, will hang onto control making it more difficult for people to cross the poverty gap
Haha thats great - "bring out the gimp!"
Nice, what year was this?
Nazi playbook.
If you see all these actions evolving from leaders then we can extrapolate backwards they are 100% dictators in the making.

What a mess it will be inside his head.
All the structures are turned to soup with a few random neurons still connecting in the tidal currents as his mouth flaps open and closed!
It does say if UK were a US state.
Basically GDP is huge in the US but they get almost nothing back from a social perspective
I guess we can assume that means all that wealth was not taxed, or if it was it went in the wrong uses - errm I wonder what they could be!
I really see GDP = Environmental Degradation
This my simplification on human environmental impact and natural (genetic) diversity
I wont say the UK has the best environmental policies, but better than many
