oOo

But yeah, language (ontology) is not just fundamental, its primary and the beginning. Epistemology, to extend the language to a particular dialect as an analogy, is the refinement that not only makes it transferable between people, but also, interestingly, has throughout history served as a basis for social discrimination where language sophistication was often social signalling for social class. 'Class' is an analogy for how all humans are there own ontology so to speak, the first breath of their eyes, reflecting the breadth of vision available to them, and their waking conscious, their epistemological capacity in raising their model, to a higher epistemological standard through feedback loops that are not just cognitive, but foundational to how their whole nervous system functions. Our whole nervous system, is an ontology, and our capacity to discern the difference between what knowledge is available to us about reality through our nervous systems versus the potentially available knowledge outside them, including where they are instead available to other nervous systems, like other species on planet earth and abroad, is our epistemic threshold on our ontological breadth. This is philosophical depth that most never touch or even adequately grasp abstractly, its just not tangible sensitivity. It all recursively weaves together, formalising this all together allows the possibility of curating a developmental path that any interested student can understand towards their own mental independence.

Interesting. How I would distinguish them is as follows. Ontology concerns the generation, differentiation and stabilisation of patterns. Whereas when we're looking at epistemology, we're observing the pattern itself. So for me, epistemologies accurate formalisation is in the evaluation, correction, and refinement of those patterns. Or at a greater scope, ontology produces the world-pattern; epistemology regulates its nature. Ontology - Generate > Differentiate > Organise > Stabilise Epistemology - Evaluate > Correct > Refine To add, given I am working on a related theory, you can find a recursive loop between them that reflects a reintegration point. Thus.. Recursion - Reintegrate > Regenerate At present, I am working on stabilising the recursion between the two through a stage theory of the mind. Your mention of ontology and epistemology reminded me of their operative feedback relationship. To know is to see, to see into is to refine, to refine is to form and thus generate from where we started. We become the patterns we integrate, and they become us to level of imagination we put into that reintegration point through inventions and so on.

I just discovered that site is actually available on a regular browser haha. I am going to investigate what can actually be uniquely discovered on the dark web. I don't know anything about it. As for the actual video in question from the OP, yeah they'll be popping up all the time now in various ways. Interesting psyop.

Oh wow this video must be blowing up. What a coincidence. I literally just finished watching this video about a while ago, on and off I think I started watching the video before you posted it. The video led me to the Dark Web for the first time. So I downloaded Torr. And because the video also led me to being curious about testing out "gory video" I typed that in to duck duck go where the search engine went on to reveal a site called "LiveGore.com". Low and behold, third video down I see the title, "Paedophile killed by vigilante justice". So I clicked on it. I just watched that. My nervous system is still processing the experiences it went through.

Intellectually, I would define 'play' as purely positive divergence relative to the psyche's typical solid centre. So divergence integrated with light-hearted emotion. If you're not sure where to start, begin with absurdity. What invention that is presently causing the most havok globally compared to any other technology ever created could you use to decode the following? Let's do this.

Fear of being unseen. Inversion is a useful tool, I use it in motivation combined with future forecasting. I'll go a little into it here. Often underneath avoiding something one should be doing is a negative emotion of some kind. I know for example that I'll be any variation of annoyed, angry, disappointed or regretful if I don't do the training I am meant to. While at the same time, often because my goals are arguably too ambitious to a regular person there's a healthy doubt there that can impede my actual follow through. That variation of a negation emotion is saying I shouldn't follow through with a particular goal for whatever reasons, is able to offset when I mentally rehearse the negative feelings I will experience if I don't do something I need to. When it comes to people who fear being seen, like with many other avoidant behaviours the emotional cost is simply not weighed well enough in contrast with a future expectation, result or goal. And I think its important not to view it as a trick but rather an action of self-regulation one is doing (I am not into "tricks" as they're often forms of unhealthy dissociation), a change in attitude through self-realisation. Inversion and future forecasting even combined is not an original idea, however I think what often gets neglected is the importance of understanding its compounded use through the filter of self/emotional regulation, rather than through the typical lens of "changing one's mind". An emphasis on persuading oneself over where self-insight better connects with action, delays the natural self-esteem building that this approach emphasises and the maturation of the mind understanding itself through itself rather than the weakening of itself through persuasive tools that rely on the ability to unhealthily dissociate. When you are consciously exercising a fear, that is when you're aware you're exercising avoidance behaviours based on a fear you have, like the fear of being seen, if you're able to anchor the mind towards awareness over both that dynamic along with an awareness with the future self, and even the past self (past self and future self are just tags), the more in tune you are with all degrees here, is to the extent that the fear becomes a self-organising principle over a (hidden) self-disabling action. The more anyone can do that, that is, become aware of and convert whatever substance of their experience is relevant as a conclusion for why they are not doing something they truly know would be enriching (for at the very least their end goals) into a self-organising principle, you will become unstoppable. You may not end up being seen in the way you want by another, but at least by executing on that self-organising principle, you've become so aware of your experience that it doesn't even matter because you see yourself now very fully. Maybe then at least 50 percent of the fear of being seen is cured through the fear of not fully seeing oneself and endeavouring to do this with full personal integrity before acting on a fear that does not serve oneself. Postive and negative emotions of course have positive and negative sides, what matters when it comes to our personal integrity is in determining whether the self-organisation that makes up our conscious experience, has adequately determined what thoughts, emotions and actions, along with their degrees and qualities, are in service to us, and which of those are not, then only servicing strategic actions that benefit the honour of this service.

Completed a demo of Lightful Throne under deeper register just now. Works. It surprised me actually. As that means things only get better from here. Won't share until ready to release closer to final version. Otherwise it just ruins the memory of the original directly above. Best wishes.

I can't wait to be able to sing this song I created to the standard of the lyrics I am trying to reach. Though my vocal range is naturally going deeper and deeper I am not even sure my timbre will even be right for it. I would have to sing it in a completely different style, because right now it sounds kind of scary in a deeper voice and that's not really what I am going for. It will take some time for the timbre to even out as I've never really properly trained my voice I've just tried different styles of singing, so I will see how it goes under the new umbrella training I got going. I said July 1st there for the final release, but I've needed more time to integrate experiences to finalise the lyrics which are still pretty true to myself. Maybe just wait until I can actually sing it the way I want before I do a final release per se.

This is bullshit. It's not burdensome, if there was even just a glimpse of the infinite you'd be excited about how many other interesting threads you could create on Actualized, along with everyone else. Infinite possibilities is a blessing, it's a burden only when its not appreciated and people on this site don't sit back and wonder just a little bit longer about what they may post about to take advantage of that interesting. Instead, they post as per what we have haha, mostly low quality, though I'm reasonable empathic about that. Keep the curiosity alive though sir, sincerely, stay rocking to infinity and you will become the limit that reflects what you were always meant to reach. Best regards.

This is a false dichotomy in my view and a lower paradigm question, as well as categories. You are balancing instead the freedom to choose versus the freedom to experience. Where material and spiritual does not align conservatively in this regard, it is likely total and utter nonsense. That said, more generally, both "materialism" and "spirituality" have their own kinds of traps visible by placing the object underneath the lens of the suggested dichotomy. When materialism becomes an addiction, it rubs up against choice. When spirituality becomes an imprisoning 'religion' say, it rubs up against the freedom to experience. You can use my dichotomy across all categories of life choices in this regard to test for existential noise vs signal.

They're both a case by case basis. The overlaying therapeutic pattern I have noticed across all modalities however from psychedelics to cognitive behavioural therapy to creative expression all the way to worldwide traveling and personal challenges is as follows. The healthy expansion of self beyond known emotional and cognitive horizons forces a reintegration of experience, and therefore trauma, through the reconsolidation of the self under expanded experience. This means that you don't need to imagine that you and the pigeon are one in the same and therefore you can have every other species as equally your alternate nickname under a fire cracker Kumbaya. What it does mean however is that Kumbaya or not, healthy ritualistic unified expansion of "emotional cognition", of whatever kind, will likely reap strategically proportional benefits to the psyche. Comparatively, Satanic rituals and all tribalistic alike on the other hand for example can arguably achieve similar benefits but under a different class of emotional grammar. Ritual is to synergize and anything synergising together is a dissociation of that which it isn't converging towards, healthy dissociation, leads to positive reintegration that owns all of one's experiences, negative reintegration involves a dissociation of all prior "versions" of oneself; one has emotional salience, the other does not / lesser. Often it is the blending of both the positive and negative in consciousness rituals though of various kinds of cults, rather than just strictly negative, which often make it hard for a member to just blindly leave, so cognitive dissonance often leads them to instead blindly following. To imagine oneself as the pigeon and to grow through that experience and the myriad of permutations one can imagine far beyond as a reintegration of what and who one is, not a forgetting of the self, the returning to a point in which the self can never imagine itself in quite the exact same way again. This is the ritualistic biblical outcome of the hero's journey, to return to your village reconsolidated by experiences beyond their horizon that allows you to carry the lantern for future travelers and in their own adventure, they you. Trauma, isn't so much its own general category as it is often simply damage to a sense of dignity. Psychedelics pressurise consciousness experience, art inspires consciousness experience, worldwide traveling to personal challenges expand the possibility of consciousness experiences and therefore the reference frame of what the self can potentially become, behavioural therapies reperspectivise experiences, all of these have the pattern of recontextualisation and reconnecting to a return point that redefines that point of dignity, even if there are also other benefits paired with each individual therapeutic design, dignity is the salient pattern. In fact, this is often the biggest problem with experienced trauma, the sufferers signal on what their return point is on where their dignity is and where it isn't, is confused, which is why increased social anxiety, social withdrawal, decreased openness to experience, etc, often follow with various kinds of trauma. That said. Shorter, to expand the sense of self beyond its horizon line in a healthy way, is to become the horizon line that redignifies trauma towards a renewed reintegrated self. Throw some bird feed out in front of me when you're next walking your closest cities botanical gardens, I'll give it a peck. With dignity.

Not being infinitely curious, strategic, and organised. Imagine if you lived your life this way. You'll make excuses for why you won't today. That makes this strategy, an "if then". Some may then go on to say, "well the reason I am not curious right now is because I am meditating and thus..." Or whatever it happens to be, but what was it that led to that state and why cannot curiosity coexist with or be dominant to that state regardless as to when you need the alternative state to be salient. Curiosity is not binary, it lives within the same Gestalt as wonder, awe, interest, attraction and more, the world of curiosity makes it completely indivisible by its opposite and multiplied only by a joyful yearning for life. "But I hate life" one says, what are the hundred why's and how's behind this at the emotional level and how can you reach peace with these? The pre-requisite to curiosity is not a genius IQ, it is the strength in the simultaneous wonder and humility of one's own sentience, and appreciating the unknown art and science it can create to symbolise it's own sight upon what it has seen. This is what consciousness in humans has been doing for millenia, our sentience will take in the world, compress it into symbols and then reorganise ourselves around those symbols to become the culture that informs both future generations and the next generation of consciousness metamorphosis. This next moment is not a decision within the binary matrix of clock time, it is a release valve into traveling within the world that has awaited your creation; that is living, that is the binary choice that gave you the only answer you only ever truly wanted, freedom, and its opposite, deception.

Correction, I would reframe "insight driven existence" to a "mechanism driven being", same territory, completely different map. This is the theoretical leap modern philosophy hasn't yet fully made and yet it is the qualifier in determining level of mastery. The leap from insight to mechanism, is where insight has already moved to system and system to repetitive practice. The leap from existence to being is enjoying the fruits to that leap where one's experience shifts from the conceptual to the archetypal. Where archetype, is a candid conversation on the phenomenological revolutions a being has transformed through along a predictive axes of before, after, potential and later. I am developing a theory that I have titled "Recursive Flow" that is at present a subsidiary to Project Meaning and therefore will in the future be completely subsumed by Project Meaning, however for now, Recursive Flow will serve as an independent example of future theoretical systems developed in connection to Project Meaning before they're fully integrated. The single units of "Recursive" and "Flow" speak for themselves, and their combination, the transitional art arc a practitioner pursues in their continuous implementation as a way of being that comes to know itself through fluid evolution. The systematizing of a continuously implemented regime is rigidity designed to support only its opposite, analogous to a fluid martial artist, the art form, including many other examples from ballet to skating, is a mirror to isolated mechanisms we can come to understand as fundamental to our human existence, that when exercised in discrete combinations, compounded by recursive expansion, shift the axes of experience from an attachment to our maps to a refinement of our territory, that raises being unto only itself and the "mechanism" that creates it.

If you can learn how to plan, you'll be surprised just how much you can get done. If you can learn how to train yourself to plan at a more sophisticated level, you'll be less surprised by the results while feeling more rewarded from them. Literally no body trains to plan at a more sophisticated level, so ignore most people on the subject outside of observing actions. Literally no one teaches how to train how to plan at a sophisticated level, so ignore most teachers. The most important mechanism when it comes to planning, is pairing. We pair mental phenomena to the mental construct of time and then our predictive brains reorganise their theories of what to anticipate in not just the world around them, but their sense of self relative to those plans. The reason why our sense of self becomes so integral to the process of planning is because what's the most common characteristic most associate with the lack of executing on a plan? Procrastination. This means, in as much as you need to learn to pair the association between mental phenomena and time you need to learn how to anticipate your own emotional reactions in time, and pre-plan how you are going to work through them. Procrastination is only a virus in as much as the software is not self-aware of its own power thresholds. When the power thresholds, like the relationship between our consciousness and emotions, become out of balance, so too does our behaviour in as much as their is not concordance between our awareness and its reorganisation. Making that leap to and from awareness and reorganisation comes down to where the sensitisation to our bodily experiences meets the will to challenge. It's opposite to the contrary, procrastination, is the compounding result of dissociation x disorganised attention meets increasingly lower consciousness. These are not perfect lines, but they are proportional. Get out a timer now and imagine you are going to practice doing activities for the next ten minutes. You are not going to write a list down. You are going to come up with 10 activities, mentally imagine each activity being paired to its respective minute and you are going to do all of those activities in precise order, not missing a beat. Then you are going to come up with 5 activities, 2 minutes each over 10 minutes. Then you will come up with 2 activities, 5 minutes each over 10 minutes. Then you are going to come up with 3 activities, 10 minutes each over 30 minutes. Then you are... You get the picture. It's absolutely vital to take the pairing between mental phenomenon and time, as it is pivotal to the learning process of planning itself. Now, when it comes to strategizing that's a different subject but I will give you the first shoelaces here. After the above has been practiced, simply come up with 3 competing hypotheses each time before executing each 10 minute, 30 minute or whatever time slot you choose, in deciding what the (1) shortest path is between their achievement, the (2) most effective path and (3) the most value aligned. Ideally, you want to align all three of these, and feel free to come up with your own further metrics. Good luck, that'll get you started, you'll be surprised just how effective simple training like this can be. And, don't forget to remind yourself of the feedback you learned on each next execution to both encourage and advance your approach, however subtle the reformulation.

The most consistent pattern surrounding conformity among all substantive demographics is simply overall meta-cognitive awareness of the social substrate. Conformity is neither special, nor unspecial, though ironically it does very much flow like water moving downstream from a mountain of awareness. And that's an apt analogy, with the legwork up the mountain reflective of moving up higher levels of more sophisticated social intelligence on the momentum the otherwise predictable current would conform to. The conflict of interest in the context of this analogy is that a reader may inform their own awareness that their non-conformity is indicative of their level of awareness or consciousness however that is not necessarily so, I stated what was "the most consistent pattern", which is inclusive then, of the substrate that lays beneath one's own awareness that makes up their concept of self.

This Journal is now... Unlocked. This comes after the posting of the following. https://www.actualized.org/forum/topic/115390-schizophrenia-ocd-autism-and-religion-stanford-lecture/?do=findComment&comment=1797774 The savvy reader will connect the dots. Was this just AI knowing me so much that it modelled a religion based on what it thought I would be persuaded by? Well, why don't you try the prompt out yourself on the latest GPT model. Isn't that interesting though the connection? As my guess is that it wasn't creating it based on what it knew about my GPT history. In other news, I recently had another pretty bad seizure that I am recovering from. And that makes this journal a great existential entry point to see how much further I can lift my game just to bring myself back on track. Usefully, I managed to get the full seizure on video because I decided to stay at a place that was going to monitor me during the night, arriving at the conclusion that I have obviously had too many seizures to count while sleeping. This was grim as well as comforting, because it was the first time I ever got to capture myself on video having a seizure, so intellectually its brought a lot of closure, and more emotionally now too as now I am taking it much more seriously from a renewed viewpoint. It's both my kryptonite and my inspirational point, with many gears I need to stress test for the next 5-6 months to truly be prepared for where I have to be at the beginning of 2027. One thing I need to make a part of my creative growth is pushing myself as far as being prepared to release proper music by the end of the year as well, simply for the sake of doing so as another lever that returns my brain and nervous system however slightly to more past the return point. It's humbled me, and it will make me greater, forcing deeper strictness, prudence, revision and insight driven wholistic existence. To end, purely to celebrate the return of this journal as I already have an alternate music journal here is AI's attempt at modelling my voice for a song. To begin, the following is a vocal improvisation I shared previously months back as I celebrated the first morning I woke up feeling like I was no longer going through a pretty bad viral infection at the time. For the newbie, AI models the voice as best as it can, then maps it as the vocals over the lyrics. https://vocaroo.com/18pR04EOAzkU And this is AI, using this recording as the vocalist for lyrics and music style I created some months ago on the fly in about 20 minutes. https://0ooo0ooo0.bandcamp.com/track/midnight-blue It's one of the songs I've made I like. Enjoy! Anyhow, so moving forward this journal is an interface to deeper existential growth in ways that are unparalled to how I have previously experienced, seen and known about this existence. Rock out. Best wishes.

I gave AI a prompt to create the most sophisticated religion it could. This is what it created. https://chatgpt.com/share/6a6a99d1-1044-83ec-88d9-209d189433a0?ogimg=plain I am reading it for the first time right now along with any reader.

Wikipedia for me. The way its taxonomy is organised is very much like a brain. The amount of connections I make then in a given hour is insane. A book cannot replicate this, but it does add a mirror to my process. I can't wait to see what the next main tech enhanced system is going to be. Imagine VR wiki for example, it would be like having the ability to move anywhere in time or imagination in a single instant, the way the imagination works in the mind. Information is soon to be gamified, and gamification is soon to make education an artistic process for the first time.

And light has never entered my eye because I can't see photons, how absurd. You guys turn this stuff into too much of a religion, which is the exact opposite of how eyes see. Pursue substance over content, content is just the pointer but substance is the experience of sight. The whole video just reads as justification for sitting in an internet cafe posting on a spirituality forum all day while you watch the whole world go by as if it never existed while supporting your very survival. You should never treat absence of evidence as the evidence, especially when life is experiential. We experience light, we experience love. we experience the connection in between, but only the world within if its light unites them. Disunity separates, obfuscates, denies, ignores and inflates every alternative that makes it feel good in the moment despite contradicting common sense and then confusing truth as the common sense that is beyond sense. And doing this all the while still denying sensible phenomenological reason, which is like the unity between awareness, sense, experience and the logic that joins. Try my path, and let's see how much light you find in comparison to sitting in your own darkness of "aloneness" and calling it sight. Substance is not a philosophy, its the alignment to the life that creates the light you're trying to pretend doesn't exist to illuminate the path forward.

Excellent direction; incorrect claims; misappraised benefits and inaccurate alignment towards hypothesised goal. Great ideas are born from everything underneath them. One tweak I will give you is instead focusing on the patterns between phenomena within imagination inclusive of but not limited to the sensory. Use sensory as grounding immersion amplifier, not a tool to increase the opposite ability; abstraciton, or more scientifically precise *relational integration*, most correlated to fluid reasoning. One further tweak I'd add, is by also including Carl Richard's suggestion, n-back, but not as a separate entity. Similarly, recognising repetition of stimuli across a certain interval in the most primitive of ways, is not going to increase your capacities for relational integration. Instead, while you are consciousness streaming, which is where you are thus encompassing your whole phenomenological experience not just your sensory experience, you pair the patterns observed through immersion with the letters, and then upon their recognition relative to n-level you recall the pairing while also finding patterns between pairings. This is crux, without every minute gear of the clockwork that is better learned during your actual practicing and undertaking of the kind of note-taking that Winger suggests. It's pretty primitive yet interesting that the forum that is supposedly underpinned and beholden to so much open mindedness reveals that its training the exact opposite behaviour in both leadership and any supposed recalibration from learning experiences. Empiricism is often the most needed for those that are either trying to denounce or be absolutist in relation to it. Life is about integration, not denigration; that is what leads to unity and actions that unify, not dissociate from the impartial truth of their existence. I may be sharing more architecture on cognitive training directions in the future, but at the very least, insights on training specific to the mind itself. What is most important, is not the mind, but how you use the mind to give find genuine personal fulfilment that keeps you in integrity with how you internally make and want to make your own existence; this requires a mind devoted deeply to its own philosophy on love, and that is unique to the relations we've formed since child-hood, and our devotion to no pun intended, their relational integration. Stay open minded, but put words into empirical action. I'd also include the kind of note-taking Winger suggests in his "feed the loop" method, for a beginner, or a grandiose expert that merely performs to be one. Rock out.

Most dissociate; tune in and the signal will stay as much as you can discern the groundedness to do so. Be careful about the advice you get on here, its from people who dissociate a lot, the forum is presently poorly managed.. Please put yourself first.

This looks like psychological splitting for everyone inclusively more than it does a wise appraisal and engineering of a long term solution. Sam Vaknin has good videos on this. Please everyone concerning, just stay aligned with your deeper self. Best wishes.

Tribute: Connor Murphy. Strength, love, resilience. And may you stay that shooting star we all know you are. R.I.P This is a tribute to Connor Murphy. Please understand that this is a period of mourning for all of his family and friends, that comments therefore surrounding Connor's passing will invariably be read by those that dearly loved him.---- I won't link the actual thread that's active in another area of the forum. Connor is not just a warning about psychedelics or epistemic responsibility when his situation warrants far more maturity in reflection in order to properly comprehend the complexity of his situation. This is a time to reflect on our own epistemic maturity in the context of our empathy and compassion, not to take away from a life that will be very much now missed. Sometimes in the pain endured and any loss that comes of it, no nobility is left behind in its wake. This is one of those tragic situations, and it is our loyalty to our own human experience to reflect on the humanity that was both not deeply enough seen, and that, has now been lost. Further, let us all reflect more deeply about how we can engineer safeguards and channels that better protect our own trajectories and those of the one's we love, this is where true responsibility lays as an individual in this life, and of any spiritual community. Too much of culture fetishizes the downfall, criticising and downfall of other people, rather than working together to provide the life we all enjoy living with one another. Connor teaches us to remember how precious life is, both how much we can achieve and how easily it can just as much be taken away if we do not devote ourselves to our own mature appraisal of life's realities, in not just cognition but psychologically and emotionally. I created the following song a few weeks ago. I will be singing my own songs again in the coming months or so. This song is in reflection of honouring the memory of all those connected to Connor, the lives he has touched, and the love that he has left behind. Connor was so talented in many ways, he tried so many thing and he did so much that he leaves with all of us a question about our own lives and how we are to live them, both in the absurd and the gregarious love for life Connor undeniably was capable of giving to the world. Reality confronts us in every moment. Within that confrontation, we decide which structures in us will receive life. We can continue feeding the patterns built from fear, pride, resentment and inertia, even when they have outlived their purpose. Or we can gather whatever love, courage and inspiration remain available, however small, and give them to the structures capable of carrying life forward. Rebirth is not imposed upon us all at once. It occurs through repeated acts of nourishment: withdrawing energy from what must die and offering it to what is trying to become alive. This community is a structure, and it must be rebirthed. The tragedies spiritual communities abroad and this one no less the same, combined with the ever-changing landscape of our cultural terrain ahead, demand it, as we have out lived it, while the memories of those lost and the lessons we take from their passing, still live in us strongly, and demand it just as much. Title of song: I love you. https://0ooo0ooo0.bandcamp.com/track/i-love-you-2 Connor, thank you for being the inspiration for this song, for all the ones we deeply love, and no doubt, you loved too and still do, may we carry all of them in our spirit, in remembering our own as we face life's difficulties head on, blessings to you Connor and your beloved's, and to everyone else. Much Love. R.I.P sir. Best regards, oOo.

Great stuff! When you're going through this phase, pursue that which inspires you most, and treasure that self-inspired energy. Best wishes.

There isn't going to be a bubble or one that pops. What we see is a hostage situation and the robbers aren't going home without their money. Which means at best, we see controlled demoliion, and at worse, widespread instability that invariably leads to increasingly more feudalistic geopolitics. This is a global condition now that was already pre-set through earlier decade long forecasting anticipating what is now societal predictive programming finding its natural tunnel. As one country falls another will rise, this is not a war among companies anymore, or countries, its geopolitical oligarchy, that's the overtone in the public's blindspot now. They've already run their simulations on what's to come and now they're just going to minimise the damage along the desired trajectory, and maximise it at certain price points because the only philosophy that remains competitive in this kind of game is that the "end justifies the means". That's the bank robbers code, and its all or nothing now. Case study examples of "look its popping" are just looking too young into the future of a technology that is invariably going to undergo far more developmental trajectories than what anyone anticipated pre-ten years ago.
