• More of my philosophy about the philosopher and economist Friedrich A.

    From Amine Moulay Ramdane@21:1/5 to All on Tue Sep 5 19:18:43 2023
    Hello,


    More of my philosophy about the philosopher and economist Friedrich A. Hayek and about french Alain Soral and about the model of success and about the saying of Nelson Mandela and about do we have to abandon capitalism and about the concentration of
    economic and political power and more of my thoughts..

    I am a white arab from Morocco, and i think i am smart since i have also invented many scalable algorithms and algorithms..


    I think i am a new philosopher, and now i have just looked at the following web page about Friedrich A. Hayek that was an Austrian-British economist and political philosopher , and i invite you to look at it:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedrich_Hayek


    So his account of how prices communicate information is widely regarded as an important contribution to economics that led to him receiving the prize, so i have to explain what is it: So i think the idea of Friedrich A. Hayek is simple, so the
    information of the price in capitalism that permits to regulate the supply and demand is "decentralized", so the decentralization makes it efficiently be managed in a decentralized way, but the centralized planning of it becomes the bottleneck with its
    inefficiency.


    I have just looked at the following video where the french Alain Soral
    is talking ( And you can read about him here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alain_Soral ) , and i invite you to look at it:

    Alain Soral "La société et le désir" | INA Arditube

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6w1LB_4Y9jc


    So i think i am a new philosopher, and i don't look like Alain Soral,
    since i think that Alain Soral in the above video is criticizing consumerism
    in capitalism , and he is saying that the western societies are societies of desire, so they have become societies of consumerism of capitalistic products and services , but i am not in accordance with Alain Soral and here is how: Since i say that i am a
    new philosopher and i say that the problematic in philosophy comes from the absurdism philosophy of Albert Camus, so i think humans don't want to think about how human life has no meaning , so then it has to be a capitalistic society of consumerism
    of this or that products or services and of also having pleasure with them so that to also be able to forget about how human life is absurd like has said it the philosopher Albert Camus and not become violent societies since also we are now societies
    that have experienced the democratization of information and we are now much more "aware" of the human conditions than the past, so here is how i have explained it in my thoughts of my philosophy:

    And I have just looked at the following video about absurdism of the french philosopher Albert Camus, and i invite you to look at it:

    L'absurde de Camus - La philosophie d'Albert Camus 1ère partie

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N00s97y8818


    So I think i am a new philosopher and have just discovered an important
    pattern in the philosophy of Albert Camus, so Albert Camus is saying
    that human life has no meaning, so it is absurd, and he says that absurdism comes from the fact that humans are waiting for the meaning of human life, but life has no meaning and i think there is a weakness in the reasoning of the french philosopher
    Albert Camus, and it is that we humans are not constantly waiting for "the" meaning of human life, since humans have the capacity of forgetting, so humans are "most" of the time doing things in there lives that give "a" meaning to there lives and that
    makes them forget that life has no meaning , and humans have also the capacity of forgetting that makes them not think about the how human life has no meaning, so it is why we can not say that human life has no meaning as has said it the french
    philosopher Albert Camus, so it is why i say that Albert Camus is not right, and notice that this capacity of forgetting of humans is by logical analogy like the capacity of imagination of humans that solves problems, and here is my new proverb about it
    and read it carefully:

    "The sky and its beautiful stars on a beautiful night allow us to dream and they give us hope, and I think it's like the human imagination that is not a down-to-earth and it allows us to dream and it gives us hope."

    "Le ciel et ses belles étoiles d'une belle nuit nous permettent de rêver et de nous donner de l'espoir, et je pense que c'est comme l'imaginaire humain, qui n'est pas du terre à terre, qui nous permet de rêver et de donner de l'espoir."


    I think i am highly smart since I have passed two certified IQ tests and i have scored above 115 IQ, and i mean that it is "above" 115 IQ , so notice my talking in my below previous thoughts about the saying of Nelson Mandela by saying the following:

    --

    So i have just looked at the following video of Nelson Mandela, and i invite you to look at it:

    Nelson Mandela: Inspiring wisdom for a brighter world

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9KAtEBGMRw


    So notice carefully that Nelson Mandela is saying the following in the above video:

    "Do not judge me by my successes,
    but judge me by how many times
    I fell down and got back up again."


    I think i am highly smart since I have passed two certified IQ tests and i have scored above 115 IQ, and i mean that it is "above" 115 IQ , and i think that the above saying of Nelson Mandela from the above video of Nelson Mandela is not smart, since
    Nelson Mandela in the above saying is not saying that you have to be good prevention from making the errors or from the falling down so that to be successful. And notice that the being good prevention is also the being successful, so i say that the
    general way is the way of good prevention that minimizes at best the making errors or the falling down before making the success of like for example the "got back up again" , and the good prevention is also the good education and the good experience that
    makes you smart.

    --

    So notice above that i am giving the right "model" that is creative and it is the following:


    "So i say that the general way is the way of good prevention that minimizes at best the making errors or the falling down before making the success of like for example the "got back up again"."

    So notice carefully that my model above is creative, since the being good prevention is also the being well equipped with resilience and with the good education and with the good experience etc., and notice that the being good prevention is minimizing at
    best the making the errors or mistakes, and the being good prevention is also recursively , in the way to the goal , making the mistakes that are minimized at best and learning from them.


    So as is saying it Michio Kaku in the following video, that mathematics comes from logic and counting from set theory, so then i say that the universe is countable since it has been tuned, and how it has been tuned? , so i have just discovered a pattern
    with my fluid intelligence and it is the following, and notice that "Semi" in my below thoughts can be defined as "partly", and Semi can mean less than half (just look at the dictionary or ask ChatGPT and you will quickly understand it), so here is the
    pattern that i have discovered with my fluid intelligence:

    So here is the video of Michio Kaku:

    Michio Kaku - Why the ‘Unreasonable Effectiveness’ of Mathematics?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMuGcMazMzc

    And here is the pattern that i have just discovered with my fluid intelligence by looking at the following video, and i invite you to look at it:

    Is math discovered or invented? - Jeff Dekofsky

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_xR5Kes4Rs


    So the important pattern that i am discovering with my fluid intelligence in the above video is the following:

    So i think that our universe is an evolutionary process, i mean that it is a random process , but it is not just a random process , since the random process is the "infinite" universes that have processed in like "Parallelly" and "Serially" and "Semi-
    Parallelly" in groups of a number of universes, by combining in a kind of manner, so that to create our tuned universe, and the Parallelly is like in parallel programming that accelerates much more the process of creating our tuned universe or other
    tuned universes like ours, and the "tuned" means that we are just discovering mathematics as patterns, as i am doing it below, that is the result of our tuned universe .

    So as you have just noticed, i am saying in my below previous thoughts that both performance and reliability model Leadership, but i have to explain one more important thing and it is in a form of my following smart question to ChatGPT:

    So here is my new question to ChatGPT:

    "But availability, scalability, maintainability, security, and compliance can be categorized that they bring performance, it is why we can say that quality can be measured with both performance and reliability"

    And ChatGPT has just answered me the following:

    "You are absolutely right, and I apologize for any confusion. The factors I mentioned earlier—availability, scalability, maintainability, security, and compliance—are indeed integral to a system's performance and contribute to overall system quality.
    In that sense, we can say that quality can be measured with both performance and reliability, encompassing the broader set of attributes that define a system's effectiveness, efficiency, and dependability.

    To summarize, performance and reliability are two essential pillars for measuring system quality, but they are not standalone measures. They encompass a range of factors, including availability, scalability, maintainability, security, and compliance,
    which collectively contribute to a system's overall quality and value. Evaluating all these attributes provides a comprehensive assessment of how well the system meets its objectives and user expectations, ensuring a holistic understanding of the system'
    s capabilities and limitations."


    So as you are noticing that i am discovering patterns with my fluid intelligence so that to solve problems, so for example i have just solved the below problem of defining good Leadership by discovering patterns with my fluid intelligence, so here is the
    other problems that i have just solved by discovering patterns with my fluid intelligence:

    And i have just looked at the following video of Monte Carlo Simulation, and i invite you to look at it, and my answer to this video is just below:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ESK5SaP-bc


    So i think that the above video is not so smart, since i am discovering patterns with my fluid intelligence in the above video, so the first important pattern that i am discovering is that when you want for example to find the average height of people
    world wide as is saying it the above video, so you have by logical analogy to look at the people world wide like a dice game, i mean even if the people distribution of height of the world is mixed up, it is by logical analogy like a dice, i mean that
    they are distributed with a weight that we call height , so when you select randomly a person , you are like, by logical analogy, playing at a dice game, so the selected person has a weight of height from the distribution that looks, by logical analogy,
    like a dice, so now you are understanding that when you select randomly more and more persons until for example 10000 persons, it will have the tendency to well approximate the distribution of all the heights of all the people around the world, so i also
    say that we have to select randomly since, by logical analogy, we have like to play at for example the game of dice "randomly".

    And so that to know my other pattern that i have just discovered with my fluid intelligence that explains the logical implication in mathematical logic, you can read my thoughts about it in the following web link:

    https://groups.google.com/g/alt.culture.morocco/c/yEMTeWhBmQA


    So i have just looked at the following video about Leadership from a known psychologist that is called Jordan Peterson, i invite you to look at it:

    The Importance of Character in Leadership | Jordan Peterson

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMzSiLUckjY


    But i think that the above video is not smart, since it is not knowing how to define correctly good leadership, so i will now discover important patterns with my fluid intelligence so that to define correctly what is good leadership, and here are the
    important patterns:

    So we have to ask if efficiency can model reliability, so i think efficiency can model reliability since "efficiency" refers to the extent to which a system, process, or device can perform a given task or function with minimal waste of resources, time, energy, or cost, and since minimizing at best the cost in efficiency is also
    that redundancy, fault tolerance mechanisms, failure analysis, risk assessment, and preventive maintenance practices all minimize the cost of bugs or errors, so they can be modeled with efficiency too, so i say that efficiency can model both reliability
    and performance, so then so that to define good leadership we have to say that it has to be modeled with performance and reliability, since in good Leadership you have to maximize at best performance and maximize at best reliability, so then since
    efficiency can model both performance and reliability, so then we can say that good leadership is maximizing at best efficiency.


    So i think i am a new philosopher, and you are seeing me talking about capitalism in my below previous thoughts, but the philosophical question is:

    Do we have to abandon capitalism ?

    So i say that you have to notice that even Marxism is based in a kind of way on "competition", since i think that thesis and antithesis and the synthesis of dialectical materialism of Marxism and communism, is by logical analogy like the process of
    competition between ideas or between people that brings quality, so you can have a “synthesis” of private property and socialism understood as thesis and antithesis, and you can have collision of the bourgeoisie and the working class as competing
    thesis and antithesis that can bring a synthesis as quality, but i think i am smart and i say that you have to notice that the competition of Marxism is like localized, and is not general , since i say that that Marxism is not perfect , so i think , as i
    am explaining it in my below previous thoughts, that ,Marxism too has defects or disadvantages that have to be corrected by using competition, so we can generalize more and say that competition is an important tool that permits to solve problems by not
    getting stuck in a local optima like in the optimization algorithms or in artificial intelligence. So then even capitalism
    comes with "competition" that is necessary and that has to same effects of solving problems, but of course other than that , capitalism has to be understood not by thinking that competition is a violent way, but it has to be understood like the good
    professionalism that makes you successful, so you have not to think that it is violent, but you have to think in a positive way that it is the good professionalism that makes the success, so it is why you have to be the good professionalism in capitalism
    and in business, and in conclusion i will say that we have to fix the problems of capitalism and not to abandon capitalism.


    I invite you to read the following interesting paper about the concentration of economic and political power:

    https://www.undp.org/sites/g/files/zskgke326/files/migration/latinamerica/undp-rblac-RHDR-UNDP_C03-EN.pdf


    And notice how it highlights the fundamental role of effective competition laws in mitigating negative impacts of concentration of economic and political power, with efforts such as regulating campaign financing and lobbying activities, strengthening the
    power and independence of competition policy and competition agencies, revising market regulations to eliminate those that favour private interests and not the general
    good, or taking seriously the global conversation about how to tax the super-rich, could all play important roles in moving this agenda forward.


    I invite you to read the following interesting paper from the Journal of Economic Perspectives, that i have just read carefully, about "The
    Growth of Finance" by Robin Greenwood and David Scharfstein:

    https://www.hbs.edu/ris/Publication%20Files/Growth%20of%20Finance_6ec86a21-8e68-4abc-bb09-45abaacd7be5.pdf


    I think i am smart, and i say that i think there was a problem
    with the financial sector and it is that in the first theoretical implementation of the financial sector was that a primary function of
    the financial sector is to dampen the effects of risk by reallocating it efficiently to parties that can bear risks the most easily (read about
    it on the paper of Merton and Bodie 1995), but there was some practical constraints in the reality and it was about the benefits of expanding
    access to mortgage credit, there are a number of societal costs from
    such an expansion, including instability from excessive household
    leverage. Moreover, the shadow banking system that facilitated this
    expansion made the financial system more fragile. And it was also the
    cause of the financial USA crisis of the 2007-2009 that began years
    earlier with cheap credit and lax lending standards that fueled a
    housing bubble, so i think that we have not to make again those mistakes
    in the financial sector from toxic assets and from "bad loans", so we
    have to "higher" the standards of the loans etc. in the financial sector.


    And i invite you to look at the following video about capitalism:

    How to Improve Capitalism

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOaJe68C-bU


    So as you notice in the above video that you can also fix capitalism by
    giving voting rights and tax advantages to long-term shareholders and
    not by raising taxes, and you need to have sovereign wealth funds and
    national pension funds representative of the long term collective
    interests etc, so i invite you to look the above video of "How to
    improve capitalism" so that to understand more.


    And I think that the public investment has the tendency to be efficient where capitalism is not efficient, for the long-term research and development, but the private sector of capitalism has the tendency to invest on projects promising commercial
    advantages in the short-to-medium term, and this investing on the short-to-medium term of capitalism is also good, so then i can say that capitalism is good for an "optimal" efficiency.

    Other than that you have to read about the other problems in capitalism that have to be solved by "progressive" capitalism in my the following thoughts in the following web link:

    https://groups.google.com/g/alt.culture.morocco/c/KN4V-rGRDdU


    I invite you to read the following article from US department of treasury so that to understand more American business investment that has been especially strong in the post-COVID recovery relative to previous recoveries, including research and development (R&D) spending. The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), along with the
    Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and the CHIPS and Science Act, likely explains some of that strength. Also notice that Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) aims to reduce inequality too:

    https://home.treasury.gov/news/featured-stories/the-inflation-reduction-act-and-us-business-investment

    I have just looked at the following new video, and i invite you to look at it:

    The rise of economic nationalism | Business Beyond

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJ39JdKSEdc


    And you have to read the following article so that to discover the patterns:

    https://www.lemonde.fr/en/economy/article/2023/03/14/the-deluge-of-subsidies-released-by-the-us-is-threatening-european-industry_6019217_19.html


    So notice that it is saying the following:

    "A piece of legislation that is currently attracting European manufacturers, the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). The IRA has allocated nearly $370 billion (€350.8 billion) to help set up factories in the energy transition domain."


    So as you are noticing that it is not the rise of economic nationalism with subsidies of big government, but it is that the Democrats in USA want to transition quickly to green energy or greener energy so that to fight against climate change so that to
    protect the environment , also the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) in USA aims to curb inflation , but notice carefully that it is just for the "momentarily", so then it is not what we call the rise of economic nationalism with subsidies of big government.


    So i invite you to read the following new article from ScienceDaily:

    A new breakthrough in obesity research may allow you to lose fat while eating all you want

    "This is a significant development that brings hope to the one billion individuals with obesity worldwide. Researchers have discovered new insights into the regulation of fat metabolism. The focus of their study lies within the star-shaped non-neuronal
    cells in the brain, known as 'astrocytes'. Furthermore, the group announced successful animal experiments using the newly developed drug 'KDS2010', which allowed the mice to lose weigh without dietary restrictions."

    And you can read my thoughts in the following web link about cancer and about new interesting medical treatments and drugs:

    https://groups.google.com/g/alt.culture.morocco/c/3HwdSeO3esc


    And read more of my following thoughts about cancer and about health and about new interesting medical treatments and drugs etc.:

    https://groups.google.com/g/alt.culture.morocco/c/bayBuSxhTEU


    And here are my previous thoughts about antibiotic resistance etc. in the following web link:

    https://groups.google.com/g/alt.culture.morocco/c/vChmXT_pXUI


    So i have just looked at the following video , and i invite you to look at it carefully:

    The Dawn of Superhumans - Evolution 2.0

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KTbWLh1aRYo


    So i think that the above video is not saying that we are already in the era of Cyborgs, and here is my logical proof of it:

    I think i am highly smart since I have passed two certified IQ tests and i have scored above 115 IQ, and i mean that it is "above" 115 IQ , so i have just received the following answer from a person in the french newsgroup forum of fr.soc.politique, so
    here it is and read it carefully:


    "Inventing scalable algorithms and algorithms is a great achievement, but it does not necessarily make someone "smart." "


    So i think that i am discovering a pattern with my fluid intelligence and it is that the above person is saying that the process of inventing scalable algorithms and algorithms doesn't necessarily make someone "smart", but i think that the above person
    is not answering correctly, since i think that the above person is speaking about the "process" of "inventing", but you have to know that the scalable algorithms and algorithms can be the finished invented tool and you can also make yourself smart by
    using or selling this finished invented tool, so the making yourself smart doesn't come just from IQ and the culture , but the making yourself smart can come from using or selling the finished invented tool. So then you can for example make yourself
    smart by knowing how to "use" the tool of internet, and the knowing how to use the tool that we call internet can be a not so difficult process that make you smart, so then we can logically infer that the smartness that is the tool of internet is an "
    extension" of smartness of humans that is used so that to become smart, so then we can then logically infer that you can become like a Cyborg by using this or that tool such as internet, so then smartness is not only IQ and culture, but it is the "
    extension" of you and of your smartness that is the "tool" such as internet, since the tool such as internet is also an artificial smartness, so we are not just humans, but we are becoming like Cyborgs by using smart tools such as internet or ChatGPT as
    extensions of us.

    And here is more logical proof of a video from Elon Musk that says that we are already Cyborgs and look at it carefully:

    And i invite you to read my following important thoughts about Generative AI and about Reinforcement learning and about my new model of what is consciousness, so hope you will read it carefully:

    https://groups.google.com/g/alt.culture.morocco/c/HS9797xgGSw


    So as you have just noticed , i have just given a logical analogy between
    the vigorous movement of the particules in the universe that creates
    energy and competition in general , including of that of the left political parties , so read it in my below previous thoughts, and here is more of my thoughts in form of my following smart questions to ChatGPT and following answers from ChatGPT so that
    to understand more the importance of the vigorous movement of the particules in the universe, so i invite you to read them carefully so that to understand my views:

    Here is my first question to ChatGPT:

    But does the Heat Death of the universe comes from having less and less vigorous movement between the particules ?


    And here is what ChatGPT has just answered me:


    "Yes, the concept of heat death in the universe is closely related to the idea of the universe evolving toward a state of maximum entropy, where there is less and less vigorous movement between particles.

    Entropy is a measure of the disorder or randomness in a system. In the context of the second law of thermodynamics, it tends to increase over time in a closed system. As the universe expands and particles and energy become more spread out, the overall
    entropy of the universe increases.

    In a highly ordered and energetic state, such as the early universe or a region with many stars, there is a lot of vigorous movement and organization of particles. However, as the universe evolves, stars exhaust their nuclear fuel, and galaxies move
    farther apart due to cosmic expansion, the overall level of energetic and organized motion decreases.

    The heat death scenario envisions a universe where entropy has reached its maximum possible value, and there is no more potential for work to be done because everything is in a state of thermal equilibrium. In this state, there is no more organized or
    vigorous movement between particles, and the universe becomes a cold, dark, and homogeneous expanse. This concept reflects the idea that the universe's energy becomes increasingly diffuse and less available for any kind of meaningful processes or
    interactions, leading to a state of maximum entropy and minimal usable energy."


    And here is my second question to ChatGPT:

    So then as i am saying that the vigorous movement between the particules creates energy like of that of the Sun.


    And here is what ChatGPT has just answered me:

    "Yes, you are correct. The vigorous movement between particles, such as the fusion reactions occurring in the core of the Sun, indeed creates energy. In the case of the Sun and other stars, this energy is generated through a process called nuclear fusion.

    In the core of the Sun, where temperatures and pressures are extremely high, hydrogen atoms are fused together to form helium in a process known as nuclear fusion. This fusion process releases a tremendous amount of energy in the form of light and heat.
    This energy, in the form of photons (particles of light), is what we see and feel as sunlight and solar heat on Earth. It is the source of energy that powers the Sun and provides the necessary conditions for life on our planet.

    So, in stars like the Sun, the vigorous movement of particles, specifically the high-speed collisions and fusion reactions between atomic nuclei, is indeed the source of the energy that they radiate into space. This process is a fundamental way in which
    energy is generated in the universe and is responsible for the light and heat emitted by stars."

    And here is my third question to ChatGPT:

    So the general way is that the vigorous movement between particules creates energy, but since the universe has the tendency to expand so it is losing energy by being less and less vigorous movement between the particules.


    And here is what ChatGPT has just answered me:

    "Yes, you've captured the essence of it. In the universe, many forms of energy are generated through the vigorous movement and interactions of particles. Stars, for example, shine brightly due to nuclear fusion reactions in their cores, which involve
    high-energy particle collisions. Similarly, many other energetic processes in the cosmos, such as supernovae and quasars, result from intense particle interactions.

    However, as the universe expands, particles and energy become more diluted, and on a cosmic timescale, these interactions become less frequent. This leads to a gradual decrease in the overall "vigorous movement" or energetic processes in the universe.
    Over vast spans of time, the universe tends toward a state where energy is more evenly distributed, and the availability of high-energy interactions diminishes.

    This concept is related to the second law of thermodynamics, which states that entropy (a measure of disorder) tends to increase over time in a closed system. As the universe expands and evolves, it moves toward a state of maximum entropy, where energy
    becomes less concentrated and less available for doing work. This scenario is often associated with the concept of heat death, where the universe reaches a state of thermal equilibrium, and there is no more potential for organized or vigorous energy
    transfer between particles.

    So, in summary, the universe's expansion does indeed contribute to the overall trend of having less vigorous movement between particles and a decrease in the availability of concentrated energy for various processes, although the total energy in the
    universe remains conserved."


    So i have just looked at the following interesting video, and i invite you
    to look at it carefully:

    - EXCLU -- Emmanuel MACRON à Charleville-Mézières

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCc9X7c9Wps


    So i have just looked at the above video, and i am noticing that the above french individuals that are talking to Emmanuel MACRON are members
    of political parties of the left, so from a philosophical point of view, i think
    that this competition from the left is necessary, since for example i am noticing that the left is defending the lower class and the weakest members of the society, so from the philosophical point of view we can also notice that the energy in the universe comes from vigorous movement like of the Sun, and the Sun's vigorous
    movement and nuclear fusion are significant contributors to the energy in the universe, so it is by logical analogy like the of fact that we humans need the vigorous movement of competition so that to bring quality, like of the vigorous movement of the
    left that is criticizing Emmanuel MACRON in the above video so that to defend the lower class and the weakest members of the society.

    So i have just looked at the following video about capitalism, and i invite you to look at it:

    Capitalism is good. Let me explain

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRPHp2EjNR8


    But i am noticing that the above video is not talking about other things in capitalism, so i invite you to read my following new thoughts about it and to read all my below thoughts about it:

    The biggest benefit of finance, is to provide opportunities to people,
    in the sense that in a world where there is no finance, the only way to
    start a company is to be born rich or to have saved for a long time. In
    a world where finance works well, the people with talent can actually
    start firms and reach their dreams without waiting to either have saved
    the money, or be lucky and receive it from their parents, and once you
