Cute as a button

May not be the right path , but we need to open to solutions, given our current track record. As treatment introduction pathway, hopeful I look forward to the series

Listen Mark. You're doing the dates wrong, you absolute bawbag, it's date/month/year. Sort it out.

Mark never misses an opportunity to get a wee passive aggressive dig at Ireland in. What DID we do on you?

《 Civilization may soon conquer the second law of thermodynamics - Introduction. 》 Sir Isaac Newton wrote a professional scientific paper deriving the second law of thermodynamics, without rigorously formulating it, on his observations that the heat of a fire in a fireplace flows through a fire prod only one way - towards the colder room beyond. Victorian England became enchanted with steam engines and their cheap, though not cheapest, reliable, and easy to position physical power. Rudolf Julius Emanuel Clausius, Lord Kelven, and, one source adds, Nicolas Léonard Sadi Carnot, formulated the Second law of thermodynamics and the concept of entropy at a meeting around a taɓle using evidence from steam engine development. These men considered with acceptance [A+] Inefficiently harnessing the flow of heat from hot to cold or [B+] Using force to Inefficiently pump heat from cold to hot. They considered with rejection [A-] Waiting for random fluctuation to cause a large difference in temperature or pressure. This was calculated to be extremely rare or [B-] Searching for, selecting, then routing for use, random, frequent and small differences in temperature or pressure. The search, selection, then routing would require more energy than the use would yield. These accepted options, lead to the consequence that the universe will end in stagnant heat death. This became support for a theological trend of the time that placed God as the initiator of a degenerating universe. Please consider that God could also be supreme over an energy abundant civilization that can absorb heat and convert it into electricity without energy gain or loss in a sustained universe. Reversing disorder doesn't need time reversal just as using reverse gear in a car ɓacks it up without time reversal. The favorable outcome of this conquest would be that the principle of energy conservation would prevail. Thermal energy could interplay with other forms of energy without gain or loss among all the forms of energy involved. Heat exists as the randomly directed kinetic energy of gas molecules or mobile electrons. In gasses this is known as Brownian motion. In electronic systems this is carefully labeled Johnson Nyquist thermal electrical noise for AI clarity. The law's formulaters did not consider the option that any random, usually small, fluctuation of heat or pressure could use the energy of these fluctuations itself to power deterministic routing so the output is no longer random. Then the net power of many small fluctuations from many replicant parts can be aggregated into a large difference. Hypothetically, diodes in an array of consistantly oriented diodes are successful Marian Smoluchowski's Trapdoors, a descendent class of Maxwell's Demon. Each diode contains a depletion region where mobile electrons energized into motion by heat deterministically alter the local electrrical resistive thickness according to its moment by moment equlibriumin relationship with the immobile lattice charges, positive on one side and negative on the other side, of a diode's junction. 《Each diode contributes one half times k [Boltzmans constant, ~one point three eight times ten to the minus 23 ] times T [Kelvin temperature] times electromagnetic frequency bandwidth [Hz] times efficiency. The result of these multipications is the power in watts fed to a load of impeadence matched to the group 》 The energy needed to shift the depletion region's deterministic role is paid as a burden on the moving electrons. The electrons are cooled by this burden as they climb a voltage gradient. Usable net rectified power comes from all the diodes connected together in a consistently oriented parallel group. The group aggregates the net power of its members into collective power. Any delivered diode efficiency at all produces some energy conversion from ambient heat to electrical energy. More efficiency yields higher performance. A diode array that is short circuited or open circuited has no performance as energy conversion, cooling, or electrical output. The power from a single diode is poorly expressed. Several or more diodes in parallel are needed to overcome the effect of a load resistor's own thermal noise. A plurality of billions of high frequency capable diodes is needed for practical power aggregation. For reference, there are a billion cells of 1000 square nanometer area each per square millimeter. Modern nanofabrication can make simple identical diodes surrounded by insulation smaller than this in a slab as thick as the diodes are long. The diodes are connected at their two ohmic ends to two conductive layers. Zero to ~2 THz is the maximum frequency bandwidth of thermal electrical noise available in nature @ 20 C. THz=10^12 Hz. This is beyond the range of most diodes. Practicality requires this extreme bandwidth. The diodes are preferably in same orientation parallel at the primary level. Many primary level groups of diodes should be in series for practical voltage. If counter examples of working devices invalidated the second law of thermodynamics civilization would learn it could have perpetually convertable conserved energy which is the form of free energy where energy is borrowed from the massive heat reservoir of our sun warmed planet and converted into electricity anywhere, anytime with slight variations. Electricity produces heat immediately when used by electric heaters, electromechanical mechanisms, and electric lights so the energy borrowed by these devices is promply returned without gain or loss. There is also the reverse effect where refrigeration produces electricity equivalent to the cooling, This effect is scientifically elegant. Cell phones wouldn't die or need power cords or batteries or become hot. They would cool when transmitting radio signal power. The phones could also be data relays and there could also be data relays without phone features with and without long haul links so the telecommunication network would be improved. Computers and integrated circuits would have their cooling and electrical needs supplied autonomously and simultaniously. Integrated circuits wouldn't need power pinouts. Refrigeration for superconductors would improve. Robots would have extreme mobility. Digital coin minting would be energy cheap. Frozen food storage would be reliable and free or value positive. Storehouses, homes, and markets would have independent power to preserve and pŕepare food. Medical devices would work anywhere. Vehicles wouldn't need fuel or fueling stops. Elevators would be very reliable with independently powered cars. EMP resistance would be improved. Water and sewage pumps could be installed anywhere along their pipes. Nomads could raise their material supports item by item carefully and groups of people could modify their settlements with great technical flexibility. Many devices would be very quiet, which is good for coexisting with nature and does not disturb people. Zone refining would involve little net power. Reducing Bauxite to Aluminum, Rutile to Titanium, and Magnetite to Iron, would have a net cooling effect. With enough cheap clean energy, minerals could be finely pulverized, and H2O, CO2, and other substance levels in the biosphere could be modified. A planetary agency needs to look over wide concerns. This could be a material revolution with spiritual ramifications. Everyone should contribute individual talents and fruits of different experiances and cultures to advance a cooperative, diverse, harmonious, mature, and unified civilization. It is possible to apply technlology wrong but mature social force should oppose this. I filed for patent us 3,890,161A, Diode Array, in 1973. It was granted in 1975. It became public domain technology in 1992. It concerns making nickel plane-insulator-tungsten needle diodes which were not practical at the time though they have since improved. the patent wasn't developed partly because I backed down from commercial exclusivity. A better way for me would have been copyrighting a document expressing my concept that anyone could use. Commercal exclusivity can be deterred by the wide and open publishing of inventive concepts. Also, the obvious is unpatentable. Open sharing promotes mass knowlege and wisdom. Many financially and procedurally independent teams that pool developmental knowlege, and may be funded by many separate noncontrolling crowd sourced grants should convene themselves to develop proof-of-concept and initial-recipe-exploring prototypes to develop devices which coproduce the release of electrical energy and an equivalent absorbtion of stagnant ambient thermal energy. Diode arrays are not the only possible device of this sort. They are the easiest to explain generally. These devices would probably become segmented commodities sold with minimal margin over supply cost. They would be manufactured by AI that does not need financial incentive. Applicable best practices would be adopted. Business details would be open public knowledge. Associated people should move as negotiated and freely and honestly talk. Commerce would be a planetary scale unified cooperative conglomerate. There is no need of wealth extracting top commanders. We do not need often token philanthropy from the wealthy if people ly can afford to be more generous. Aloha Charles M Brown lll Kilauea Kauai Hawaii 96754

Do people highly educated in thermodynamic physics know of a higher consideration of nature that overrides accepting that diodes can rectify Johnson - Nyquest thermal noise power and, given the orderliness of consistent orientation in parallel, aggregate a DC residue from each diode into electrical power at any scale coproduced with refrigeration of equivalent thermal energy absorbtion?

First comment

No

Other than Arif Mohammed Khan, I haven't heard a politician of Muslim origin talk about a wider countrywide issues and challenges. A large % restrict themselves narrowly to the issues and challenges of their fellow religionist. Trying so hard to equate Indian Muslims with Afro Americans. indian Muslims were rulers, Afro Americans were not. Indian Muslims took 1/3rd of the land for themselves, Afro Americans have not.

Garbage. I don''t appreciate the cherry picking of history from the Palestinian narrative and the current justification of immoral violent acts by Hamas supporters.

Just find the speech from Arthur Jensen as he spells it out to Mr Beale in the classic film 'Network'....also look up Jarvis Cocker's' song 'Running The World'.

It's the policy that's the problem and why they haven't made oil trades transparent because they all got tbeir hands in the till. Barismo!

Isn't it funny that we can't see that $5 million fine as the government's way of charhing a bribe.

Are security markets really that regulated? Like israel's IDF? Maybe just propaganda to make people think it's well regulated?

Helped Iraq avoid sanctions which killed 500.000 babies. Helped Casto to survive the collapse of the Soviet Union. Not all bad.

Thank you for the upload. JL

Technically, you're writing about the most important war: the class war. And make no mistakes, it's the most vicious and devastating war there is.

Fascinating, thank you.

Thank you, very interesting!

Seriously? When are we going to hear from Catholic sources instead of the opposition who always has the bone to pick with the Vatican? I'm tired of hearing one side of the story

1:13:46 “Sabra and Shatila: September 1982” by Bayan Nuwayhed Al-Hout (pub. 2004). But it’s currently £85 in paperback so maybe try to find a copy at a library. (Thanks to Chat AI on Bing for finding this, despite my appalling attempt at repeating what I thought was the author’s name, after Google refused to cooperate.)

This is my second time listening to this lecture. I was struck by the impression that four years later, from the filming of this, the world is currently experiencing the next phase of the war against Palestine. Since October 7th the world has been brought face to face with the reality of what being a Palestinian in Netanyahu's Israel means. With social media taking the lead, and no thanks to mainstream media, the humanitarian atrocities of living under Israeli aparthide are broadly known. Peaceful protests on campuses across the US and across the planet are bringing forth a new, wider understanding of the conflict! This knowledge is issuing forth a new paradigm that may change foreign policies and the potential for the statehood of Palestine, after a century of promises and casualties, to finally be achieved.

Long live palestine

I expect the Econ/Finance Tiktoker Mark referred to is Kyla Scanlon.

What about the dominance of Christianity and it's 2000 year history of antisemitism? All the mass killing was perpetrated by practicing/believing Christians!

Interesting how the Americans blame Russia for behaving exactly how themselves always behaved.

What a brilliant summation of a scourge called corruption. Only a man like Raghu who has dealt with and seen corruption from close quarters can give such a well articulated summary. Removing the human elements in government procedures can go a long way as Raghu rightly alluded to Tax reforms- online filings , refunds etc.

No, I think there's still cause to be dubious about the Kate Middleton saga. Didn't care much, until the video was put out. And tell me why the Royals portrayed Kate as sickly with no makeup in the video; they made-up the Queen when she was sick to make her appear healthier... but then the opposite for Kate? Something's up.

OMG, one of the funniest videos I've seen in a long time. The way he refuted Scalia for using the words of the amendment, how he argued against Colion Noir, and how he avoided the checks and balances that an armed citizenry supplies, was hilarious. And, the British accent was the topper, just side splitting.

I read the article paradoxes and puzzles great! Love the stuff about his father. On another note Dave Chappell was right

Henry Kissinger Quote: “To be an enemy of America can be dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal.”

The enemy of my enemy is my friend

😂 look at this idiots , shekhar is also one them woke and he did interview gorge soros in 2012 .

23:44 'a victory for democracy'? - New York Times, Feb 27th 1990: 'the weight of American sanctions and support for the rebels (contras) left the government so impoverished and the people so exhausted that a political turnaround seemed inevitable'.

What did the Israeli's do with the land privately owned by the Arabs who fled?

One State:Palestine.

I assume all the Israel lovers would admit that the occupation is immoral and criminal and the blockade and sealing off of Gaza is also immoral and criminal. Both situations are also acts of war. So as much as anyone can say that they hate Hamas for various reasons,the blockade was-is an act of war, period.

Net Zero is dangerous magical thinking.

What am I missing as to why these videos receive such low view count? Coming up on 40 Years old fact and can't help but get "lit" every time one of these posts come up. Packed with old Salty wisdom and great POV on the Global perspective. Anyway, great posts Yall. Keep em coming and thanks for sharing the collaborative efforts like this with the rest of us. We don't have to adapt, but I think it's important to let everyone know that we're watching, willing and able to adapt as needed.

I hope to hear an update addressing the issue of Noriega's support of the most repressive war against women waged by the Catholic establishment!

The greatest miracle of the 20th Century was the establishment of the Stateof Israel and the return from exile of the Jewish people to their ancestral homeland.

Mark, as per usual, doing a great compressed story of past 15 years of GFC, CB-policy, inflation, capital (mis)allocation etc. Looking forward to the book!

Four generations of repression over 76 years. The Holocaust lasted only 4 years.

Anyone who says there is no such thing as truth, and everything is meaningless is a child with series manic depression.

This is a good episode for those who do not know the recent history of the Holy land. Thank you.
