Message to the US China trade team


Basic comment on the China deal.  My message to the Trade Team.  “Do what you can, BUT accept what cannot be done.” 

Probable facts. 1. China has already stolen enough technology and materials to sustain them for at least ten years.  They need no more now, but cannot give up their practices if only to save face. 2. China will continue to hack.  3. China will continue to promote their information hegemony worldwide, and military hegemony in the Pacific.

China’s military development in the the South China Sea.  What can you do except get promises?  Here you can exert tariff policies if it continues.  This is measurable!

China’s space explorations and militarization.  These will continue regardless. This is not measurable!

Trade deal.  Negotiate a move toward a fiscal quid pro quo over the next six/seven years. This is measurable!

China’s foreign corporate ownership (in China).  This should be a non negotiable part of a trade agreement.  China is bending on this.  Pursue it further, applying Vaseline as needed. This is measurable!

China and Huawei.  The US is correctly pursuing a policy by making the world aware of how China is stealing information.  Awareness is the first step of prevention. Increase all efforts here. Put it to Huawei to prove they are NOT co-opting data.  This is measurable! 

Tagline: The Internet is the roadway of the most dangerous “fifth column” invasion of our time. 

China will hack, i.e. cheat. Even if they promise not to hack, they will.  If necessary, they will move their operations to a client country such as NOKO.  It is up to the USA to prevent this here at home. Thus…
The USA, using the NSF, should approve protocols for securing personal data for corporations (including the US govt) that hold it.  Software should be available at nominal cost, and with Congress require/demand personal information holding companies to comply.  Many simple methods such as two-factor authentication work well. Corporate sales of personal information should be tightly regulated.

Bottom lines: 1. Secure US corporate ownership of US firms in China. 2. Stop the hacking by preventing it – at home.   3. China’s military hegemony is a public matter to be exposed and expressed to the world.   4. China’s suborning of the world’s information pool should be stopped. World pressure works. 5. Form a graduated balance for a lasting trade policy. The world will offer thanks.

Human Simulation is Possible - by Humans

  Human Simulation: Agent-Based Modeling and the Computational Case for Our Reality   1.       Introduction In the essay, we introduce the notion that humanity could be a deliberate simulation based on an extremely simple single-celled organism, hardly anything more complex than that. This will allow an (apparently) new interpretation of the notion that humanity is simulated, but that there is no master engineer at a massive number of dials and switches, responsible for every twist and turn of our universe and lives. We begin with the notion that the universe exists and operates under its own laws. So, given the Earth [2] , when and where life first began, it was infused with a living agent, self-actualized, reproductive, and with other basic rules for its operations, interactions, and much of what single-celled organisms do today. The idea from this occurred some years back when writing code in ActionScript (formerly Flash), I was able to create...

No Sympathy From Me

Suicide Coming Home Many years ago, a friend hung himself in his basement.  I was a pall-bearer at his funeral. I was shocked I was so asked.  I did this.  I did not understand why a good-looking fellow, intelligent, kindly, and true could do such a thing. He did. I do not.  His family suffered greatly.  Yet he left no issue.   Thankfully. To my mind Country singer Mindy McCready, 37, showed us the very height of personal selfishness by committing suicide.  By giving birth to two offspring, she accepted the responsibility to raise her newborn and six-year old son.  She abrogated it spectacularly.  (As did the father a month ago.)  Though she may have suffered depression for any number of reasons, she has little sympathy from me for leaving behind a legacy that is now lost, is now parent-less, and may drift into problems of their own in the future.    There is shame and heartbreak in all this, but blame should be...

Problem Solving - Murder

Abstract  Most certainly, a homicide investigation is a problem-solving event and requires tools and intelligence similar to most scientific research. A homicide investigation is the most rigorous application of the state’s police power. This paper examines the structural framework of these investigations, focusing on the psychological profile of the detective, the procedural utility of the "Murder Manual" and "Murder Book," and the taxonomy of investigative problems. This essay is about solving a murder, though by synthesizing these theories with the 2026 Nancy Guthrie abduction/presumptive homicide case in Arizona, it illustrates the shift from physical evidence to "digital and medical absence" as an essential tool for prosecution in "no-body" cases. Here is a table of contents for this essay. 1.      The Homicide Detective 2.      The Murder Book and Murder Manual 3.      The Complexity of Homicide 4.  ...
