Given Bezos track record personally i think he is on a longer plain of thought over Musk. (Look at lack of showboating to raise capital investment perhaps as an example).
Musk is Cavalier and courts the press.
Bezos is on a path which is clearly mentally defined and configured.
He also took a Wally and a Daemen to space which is outstanding work in my book.
Taking his little Brother was just family feud gone large spite.

Bezos appears to me to be chasing government launch contracts.
i.e. using the technology in order to make money from the status quo.
Musk appears to be chasing a private landing on Mars, using the technology to fund that end goal.

Musk needs NASA and the US government more generally to fund Starship development
but more crucially he needs government support for the technology to do more than just land at Mars. ISRU is going to need either a submarine-style nuclear reactor (necessitating government licenses and whatnot) or a supermassive solar farm, and there are serious problems launching anywhere near either of those (necessitating a heavy rover and miles of cable to move your power station out of the debris zone).
I don't think SpaceX is actually making any money at the moment, setting up Starlink and Starship and Starbase and the oil rig conversions and so on, while still maintaining the fleet of Dragons and Falcons and everything else.

I always thought the "critical" is hubris
along with other "critical theory" teaching, they're not simply critiquing existing views and power structures, they're promoting an alternative. Now this may or may not be valid, but it should be named something else. It'd be like teaching Utilitarianism but calling it Deontology Is Shit

Easily.
Critique something. And having done that, neglect to promote an alternative.
For example: Democracy is a terrible idea, as it invests supreme power in an uninformed, incompetent and selfish electorate. It inherently suffers long-term problems due to short-term expediency caused by the ever present threat of re-election. Sensible but unpopular decisions become impossible, while foolish populist decisions become inevitable. And it's STILL the best stable long term form of government we've come up with.

In short...
"not being racist isn't enough, you have to actively be reverse racist (i.e. racist) in order to counter racism, otherwise you're a racist".
Some proponents of CRT think that people of different races need their own safe spaces free from white people. Things like bathrooms, cafés, bars, and public transport... that sort of thing. Basically, it's an insidious philosophy that makes wild unsubstantiated claims about racial inequality and how to fix it, but instead exacerbates racial division. It does away entirely with the concept of personal responsibility, replacing it with group identity; ultimately people are not to be judged by the content of their character, but by the inalienable properties of their racial background, and everyone is either a victim or guilty.

Have you got a specific example of one of the wild unsubstantiated claims about racial inequality, and can you explain how it exacerbates racial division?
(, Tue 20 Jul 2021, 23:40, Reply)
Yeah sure,
One of the principle claims is that the difference in economic prosperity (in the US and thus by extension the entire world) between different racial groups is an inevitable product of white racism and privilege. If anyone points out that on average Jewish and Asian people in the US are more prosperous than white people, or that they get better grades in school, then the answer is that Jewishness and Asian-ness are both forms of whiteness.
Thus a lot of people who have swallowed the theory whole, and who have already been taught to hate white people, are now taught to hate Jews and Asians for being white or honorary white, or some stupid bullshit like that. Reality has to be adjusted, so that obvious untruths are taken as fact, in a desperate attempt to get the theory to fit.

Or how about the whole idea of white privilege? Some white kid from a trailer park, poor as fuck, no chance of an education with the schools in his area. His future will be a succession of dead end jobs where he's treated like shit, and he's likely as not to propagate his own situation to create more children like him. Is that guy privileged in any way? The idea that every white person enjoys some kind of immense privilege is demonstrably not true.
But there it is... a concept from CRT that has seemingly pervaded all strata of society across the whole world. Wild. Unsubstantiated. Inherently racist itself. Easily disprovable. And its effect is to make people hate whites.

I like the Olympics, and I quite like that trailer,
but the IOC (and, to a lesser extent, the government of Japan) are reckless for doing this during a pandemic.

There needs to be an AI
which watches all long YouTube videos and flags up if and when a cat appears.

My favourite thing about GB News is that
they generate images using URL parameters, meaning you can create pictures of Andrew Neil which are as big as the moon.

Even after they've photoshopped the fuck out of him
he still looks like he's about 5 minutes away from a major cardiac event. The unhealthiest person on the telly I reckon

That double chin could be seen from the moon.
EDIT: One hour and sixteen minutes on an obscure news channel that no one is watching? He’s really must have a bee in his bonnet.

It's not his first one on the subject.
To be fair, the one I watched had someone on who was pretty insightful about media and why the GB News model is borked.

I was all for an analysis of why it’s failing, but 1:16 about a channel that started badly and got worse?
Jones must have some kind of fetish.

It's not on topic the whole time. The last 25 minutes is just Beakering about Twitter, which I skip because who fucking cares?

Indeed.
I skipped the whole thing because I thought I cared but it turns out I don’t care enough to watch over an hour of some obsessive rant. If I did watch the whole thing I’d have watched him obsessing over it for longer than I’ve watched the channel itself.

on another subject, I've been keeping an eye on hospital admissions in holland out of curiosity
and though they have gone up a very small fraction, it does appear that the 10,000 a day new cases aren't translating into admissions because of vaccinations even after giving it a couple of weeks, which bodes well for britains experiment.

not exactly the same, those vaccinations seem to also to be enough to prevent transmission, which the covid vaccine isn't doing nearly as well as expected
but reducing the severity of symptoms is a good enough, at least against the current variants. Either way I prefer live large-population data over theoretical protection estimates, and countries like the uk and holland are nice guinea pigs for the rest of the world, like sweden was with their misguided policies

His previous video on it was more fun.
But a good obsessive rant can be quite entertaining imo.
