  • Respectfully disagree that this is a correction. To me correction implies that the stock was more or less fairly valued prior to the correction.

    ~not investment advice~

    Elmo has hyperinflated his stock by lying repeatedly, documented for years. He has created such a massive awkward autistic echo chamber that a bunch of “the end is nigh people” began believing he’s the messiah to save us from Earth (let that sink in) and bring us to the promised glorious utopian paradise with luscious field, fertile lands and epic waterfalls… eh… Mars. This spinning is Elmo’s only true value and why the boards of his companies put up with him.

    Both Musk and Trump have this reality distortion field like Jobs had, but there’s almost nothing of substance underneath.

    I don’t think this market is correcting. It may look like it for a while. The AI bubble and companies like Musk who are valued by groupies, not investors may actually really crash mush harder.












  • Apologies, I’ve updated the title. Can’t change content of a cross post, so:

    Claude Sonnet 3.7 high level summary (though I recommend the entire report)

    3 Key Points: “The Crisis Report - 103”

    1. Global ocean temperatures are rapidly rising, with 2023-2025 showing unprecedented warming despite La Nina conditions, potentially leading to +2°C of global warming between 2030-2045.
    1. The report claims this level of warming could cause catastrophic global food system collapse with agricultural outputs declining 14-20% per 1°C of warming.
    1. According to the report, these conditions could lead to mass starvation primarily in the Global South, with projections of 2+ billion deaths at +2°C warming and 4+ billion at +3°C warming.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​



  • He sure does sound alarmist. But the problem is he is looking at the actual data, as it is coming in realtime. The disadvantages of the larger orgs is that they are very sluggish. Because climate is inherently sluggish, but also because it serves certain entities.

    The reality is we don’t need to wait another 5 years, before we can confirm we have breached 1.5ºC of warming, because by that time, we may very well have added another 0.5ºC.

    There was a video recently by “Just Have A Think” on YT that also used the insurance industry’s numbers and whichever you read from whichever industry or country, they all make even the most conservative climate scientists sound like stoned hippie optimists.

    As they say: the reality lies somewhere in between, but that still means: you’re saying goodbye to the absolute best February you’ll ever have in your life, and so is your child.

    And once we run out of the surplus of food production, you won’t care about how many degrees we’re past 1.5ºC.





  • We have had beachings of one species or another and always in large numbers over the last few years. There’s not enough funding to explore why it happens.

    It could be the climate emergency, the use of sonars on ships that throw off their navigation, it could be the drifting of the magnetic poles, or simply geologic. That part has an interesting combination of bathymetry and very strong currents.

    Or a combination of a number of these factors.
