Ross Ulbricht, the recently pardoned Silk Road founder and hirer of multiple contract killers, is launching a crypto startup... and of course crypto ghouls like #MarcAndreessen (#a16z) and #Paradigm want a piece of the action.

“Utility-first detractors complain a lot about how verbose this is and, consequently, how ugly. And it is indeed. But you’d forgive it that if it actually solved a problem, which it doesn’t. It is unequivocally an inferior way of making things which are alike look alike, as you should.”

“It turns out, people in tech are particularly bad at distinguishing between #paradigm shifts and paradigm sharts.”

...in his video about PilotWings 64, Modern Retro Gamer used a bit of footage (attributed) from my recording of an earlier game from Paradigm Simulation for the SGI called "Certain Impact."

I took the rough footage of it running on my SGI O2 (175MHz MIPS R10000 CPU). It seems to be the only substantial footage of the game on the internet.

It's pretty smooth, to be honest. Video can be seen in the blog post I wrote about it some years ago.

Next up, we’ve got Nikku Madhusudhan on the #hycean #paradigm in the search for #life.

Our current observations are limited to mass/radius, so the interior structure is somewhat hidden from our knowledge. Their study of K2-18 b suggested that there is a possible scenario where water could be liquid on the surface: a Hycean world as a new regime for planetary habitability.

This was all theoretical so far; but they used #JWST to check it! #ExSSV

Paraphrased: "If it's not useful and #accessible to the #poor and #disabled, it's neither #radical nor #revolutionary"

The U.S., and most of the "West" / #GlobalNorth, no longer has a radical or revolutionary mindset.

Neither #VentureCapital nor #HedgeFunds have or can deliver bold, #innovative results, only #vampiric variations on what exists.

Until that #paradigm is demolished, we can't hope to build the new #world we all desperately need.

Of course, this needs to be completed: For a future well-being in a new #cooperative #paradigm, it is of crucial importance that we equally respect non-human nature as fellow beings with their own agendas and needs - in the sense of a comprehensive #cooperation of all living beings in the planetary #ecosphere, not to be confused with #animalrights (which are not more effective than #humanrights) or bourgeois love of animals with big human-like eyes!😉

SpringerLinkWest Antarctic Ice Sheet collapse – the fall and rise of a paradigm - Climatic ChangeIt is now almost 30 years since John Mercer (1978) first presented the idea that climate change could eventually cause a rapid deglaciation, or “collapse,” of a large part of the West Antarctic ice sheet (WAIS), raising world sea levels by 5 m and causing untold economic and social impacts. This idea, apparently simple and scientifically plausible, created a vision of the future, sufficiently alarming that it became a paradigm for a generation of researchers and provided an icon for the green movement. Through the 1990s, however, a lack of observational evidence for ongoing retreat in WAIS and improved understanding of the complex dynamics of ice streams meant that estimates of likelihood of collapse seemed to be diminishing. In the last few years, however, satellite studies over the relatively inaccessible Amundsen Sea sector of West Antarctica have shown clear evidence of ice sheet retreat showing all the features that might have been predicted for emergent collapse. These studies are re-invigorating the paradigm, albeit in a modified form, and debate about the future stability of WAIS. Since much of WAIS appears to be unchanging, it may, no longer be reasonable to suggest there is an imminent threat of a 5-m rise in sea level resulting from complete collapse of the West Antarctic ice sheet, but there is strong evidence that the Amundsen Sea embayment is changing rapidly. This area alone, contains the potential to raise sea level by around ~1.5 m, but more importantly it seems likely that it could, alter rapidly enough, to make a significant addition to the rate of sea-level rise over coming two centuries. Furthermore, a plausible connection between contemporary climate change and the fate of the ice sheet appears to be developing. The return of the paradigm presents a dilemma for policy-makers, and establishes a renewed set of priorities for the glaciological community. In particular, we must establish whether the hypothesized instability in WAIS is real, or simply an oversimplification resulting from inadequate understanding of the feedbacks that allow ice sheets to achieve equilibrium: and whether there is any likelihood that contemporary climate change could initiate collapse.
