Hold on, hold on. Was trimp trying to flatter A.I.? He can't be the hyper intelligent president he mentioned to hold back A.I.. So officially adding a superlative will work or is it the weakest attempt at soft power to dunk on China? This is the stupidest version of 3d mental chess I've ever played.

They can learn while the economy stabilizes, or tries to. It'll be difficult to live and learn about stocks if they crash. Adding it as a type of real world math maybe? (not sure what that would be in a curriculum.) Bringing older generations up to speed couldn't hurt either. (A community event?)

Can we bring that bit of the 80's back? The highschool I went to (the early 2000s) didn't offer personal or any kind of finance classes. I kinda figured things out over time. Eventually. The college I went to offered economics classes and an optional "you should know this" class before graduation.

Oh~ good gosh. Lol. It's an A.I. generated video too. They couldn't spring for a bottle of Champaign or tip a bellhop to use a luggage roller thing for an hour? Through that metric, Gatsby's house would be an empty fridge box and Antoinette's cake would be the styrofoam display cake.

This gives the same energy as a person in an M.L.M. trying to get people to join their downline by showing how rich and amazing their life is now. A "this could be you, if you join us!" approach. If that person cracks or is used to take a public fall. A new optimistic soul is recruited or promoted.

I still have trouble understanding trillion as a total. Let alone 23%of 40 trillion. I think you're on the right track though. Things like pensions and mutual funds are for individuals, but are managed by a larger entity. The team of nerds needed to sort it all out will be just as awe inspiring.

maunderminimum.bsky.social @maunderminimum.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Not necessarily. I can't assume that the average person scrolling on their phone was taught, learned about, or remembered a financial term. It may be redundant to some, but it could make a post more understandable instead of being shrugged off and scrolled past.

maunderminimum.bsky.social @maunderminimum.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

"Foreign governments hold about 23% of US public debt as of early 2026. That means the overwhelming majority — more than three quarters — is owned by Americans themselves, through pension funds, mutual funds, banks, the Federal Reserve, and government trust funds." Thanks for the link.

For non-financial people reading. Insolvent means the amount owed is mathematically impossible to pay back.

Who's getting paid and who will come to collect? A decent chunk of that national debt isn't domestic. This country lives for debt leveraging, but the $40 trillion keeps increasing. Funny that.

I have to agree. We're close to two years of following this. It's becoming very obvious why these files aren't being released if this post doesn't make that reason abundantly clear.

I wonder how the policy conversations went during the state meeting. China invited the president and Con (I'm leaving that typo) to see China. They don't see these people as a threat. Xi gained the follower that putin lost. Except that the follower is a president, soon to be someone else's asset.

Weird dream note that no one asked for. Multiple, even several, clear colorful rulers of varying sizes are fanned out in front of me. I ask why I have so many. Along with many screens on the wall (like the image below). Again, I ask why there are so many. Riveting stuff, my friends. Riveting stuff.

The news snippet on the lower screen. Political A.I. ads were used in Georgia against Ossoff. The G.O.P. must have plenty of money, but ran out of real humans to act in those ads. They either want to bury the Epstein files or everyone who lost healthcare coverage so they can't vote. Maybe both.

The conservative party doesn't want to support a suspension of taxes proposed by the other side so they can repeat that they also want a suspension on taxes. The finance minister is reporting results in the quantitative form of numbers, but the understanding of mathematics appears to be one sided.

Midterm elections are Nov 3rd. *Check your voter registration status online or in a town hall. *Find your district's polling location and/or mail-in ballot deadlines! *Find out who is running and for what. *Do a choir rehearsal walk to the polling place for the fun of it. Get some fresh air.

Considering Johnson dismissed congresses (the house) early, it looks like no one is allowed to vote or advance anything to the senate. This is more of a blatant farce than a functional government.

After 40 YEARS in congress, retirement was announced in Feb of 2025. He represents Kentucky and did vote against Trump's office appointments, but not for impeachment. The proverbial leopard may have metaphorically eaten his face. His term ends in Jan 2027. There are 6 people on the ballot for Nov 3.

It's very easy to blend into the background of NYC. I wonder how many New Yorkers knew who he was (or any of the U.N. leaders). They probably just saw a cool guy and that was enough to give respect. It's nice to see a world leader just being a person and enjoying a meal.

Considering the first named chatbot, Eliza, was developed in the 60's I can see that timescale. Unless it's reported in offline sources for blatent mass errors. There's no reason to scream at something that was doing well until misused. Now I'm more concerned with rapidly changing weather patterns.

That's a good play on words. If those stickers are easy to move or biodegradable, I don't think that's extreme vandalism of private property. Can people get in trouble over a sticker or posting it? Petroleum companies would look or pay for scapegoats. I'm not a lawyer, I'm saying be safe out there.

There are ok drivers, good drivers, bad drivers who don't understand that they should move in the passzone instead of tailgating so they can speed, and then there are out-of-state drivers who block large roads with their massive minivans and idle while being completely unaware of their surroundings.

Weird dreams September 16 edition. There's this guy. He lost his legs (at the hip) and dragged himself around. Big footprints and small paw prints lead outside. He has legs now. In a bus or hummmmmv, he mentioned that his name was Seth. Yesterday a strong jawed baseball player was on a wooden boat.

Thomas Massie (R. Kentucky)did this: youtu.be/MH_f9LGK69o?... The full video is just over an hour long. It was just introduced and needs to be voted on by the House to proceed. The article used his full name and repeated what Hegseth is being accused of for every Constitutional violation. Brutal.

Lingual attrition is interesting wording. I used to work in hospitals that still used Window 10. The fact remains humans exist in a 3D space, technology is effectively a different plane of reality. Tech upgrades are nebulous compared to connected cables. Radio still interacts with solid objects.

There is a heavy reliance on simplified and very binary concepts. If you aren't "this" or "that" then you are passed. Interdisciplinary skill sets are a bit beyond most employers understanding. Recruiters will focus on the profession that occupies the most words on a resume. What thing did you find?

maunderminimum.bsky.social @maunderminimum.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

I tried to build my resume the same way, around key words that an automated system flagged. I have two versions now. A multi-page C.V. and a condensed one that has unrelated work experience gaps on Indeed.com. I uploaded the detailed one to LinkedIn. Most are automated offers, a few real messages.

A.I. is asked to solve something as fast and as "efficiently" as possible to improve share holdings. It learned to find already existing information instead of redoing what's already been done. Bad habits, yes. Survival, also yes.

I'm not familiar with that phrase. I could think of a good food/cooking related response to match. The only problem is, I'm an unenthusiastic chef, so careful rendering is more like front-burner simmering. Maybe some engineering tension cables terms? Regardless, I'm pretty sure I get what you meant.

My area was clipped by very heavy rainfall. Some towns managed the weather change better than others. Find a few people in Chile that will listen to you. See what changed in your environment/climate and slowly adapt to that. They won't slow down, you will have to brake because of them. Be the truck.
