My take on The Great Reset

bara bara api — Sat, 12 Dec 2020 14:18:51 +0800

Although the journey and the transition is not fun, but the consequence will be life changing as we are seeing it now in real life, it's currently happening.

QUOTE

"great" is usually not for pleasant events...
Great depression
Great recession
Great war
Great financial crisis
etc
It's their double-speak attempt at making you automatically categorize it in your mind as a positive thing

Found this on twitter several days ago but can't find the source.

You get the idea. I was listening to a podcast about the Great Monetary Reset (aka the new Bretton Woods moment), he said that (I'll paraphrase) "if you view the world in the monetary lens, it would be much easier to see where we are heading".

Like it or not, it's going to happen. Some people will have different views on this, similar to what happen to what flat earthers believe. Only the side which most people put the believe will win the war.

Somewhat related but I like to show you this table showing how we should feel in a real pandemic vs current pandemic, which I think they are "on to an agenda":

Why people like to type like this

bara bara api — Fri, 11 Dec 2020 19:57:18 +0800

Always with the "....." instead of just a comma and a period.

Also, some people like to randomly capitalize non-special word Like This. Fuck sial sakit mata aku. The rempit shortform no need story lah, we all understand.

Why ah? I mean, how do you speak with the intonation with this?

And the most obvious one:

Consume Less. Create More. It’s More Fun.

Consume Less. Create More. It’s More Fun.

tl;dr consume less, create more, save more, experience more, live healthy, become stoic. Durov is based.

Big corporations use marketing to trick us into thinking that the solution to all our problems lies in buying more of their stuff.

The real solution is often the exact opposite: it consists in consuming less, not more. In most cases, our problems are caused by overconsumption in the first place.

For example, if you are overweight, you will be bombarded with ads for gym subscriptions or food supplements. But the key to losing weight is eating less – not new shoes and protein powder.

Or, if you struggle with headaches and stress, they will try to sell you headache pills and antidepressants. But to really decrease stress, you should start sleeping and walking more instead of consuming entertainment products and browsing social media late at night. Pills are never designed to be a permanent solution: they lose power over time and cause side effects that will in turn require more pills. Once you embark on the endless journey of consumption, you get stuck in a trap designed to make you miserable and corporations happy.

Through evolution, Mother Nature has equipped us to efficiently cope with deficits of resources, but it never prepared us for life in the relative abundance we have now. Today, more people die from obesity than from hunger, and more people suffer from anxiety caused by information overload than from lack of news.

Human DNA, our hardware, is obsolete. It stopped evolving about 10,000-20,000 years ago when we still lived in small hunter-gatherer communities. Back then, every sweet bite and every piece of information was extremely valuable. We now live in megacities, surrounded by tons of cheap sugar, but our DNA doesn’t know that. Our bodies still accumulate excess fat to prepare for harsh hungry winters that never come. Our minds cling to every disturbing piece of news telling us about threats that never materialize.

This biological paradox is made worse by our economic system which emphasises GDP growth and maximized corporate profits. People are encouraged to increase consumption by both governments and corporations. It’s not a coincidence that the US, a country that excelled in economic growth in the 20th century, is also the most obese developed country in the world. Their market-driven society became too efficient for its own good.

Not only is this system harmful to humans, it is also unsustainable in the long-term. Unlike corporate appetites, our planet's resources are finite. As a species, we became very efficient in making and selling ourselves stuff we don’t need, but it is the planet which pays the bill. Our bodies still expect us to be living in the pristine environment we had 10,000-20,000 years ago, full of green forests and clean lakes. As we keep destroying our own habitat in the eternal quest for economic growth, the number of diseases caused by pollution continues to rise.

I was lucky to become wealthy early in my life. By the time I was 22, I had a million dollars in my bank account, by 25 – tens of millions, by 28 – hundreds of millions. However, this has never been what made me happy.

My real luck was in realizing pretty early that the most rewarding kind of occupation is creating things, not consuming them. So instead of buying yachts, airplanes and expensive real estate, I focused on what I enjoyed most – creating social platforms that (hopefully) bring good to humanity. I spent most of my personal funds on Telegram for people to enjoy a free service that strives for perfection.

I consider the ability to create things for others the most valuable – and rewarding – asset of mine. I suspect one of the reasons I happened to get wealthy in the process of doing what I love is because money has never been an important goal for me.

When I was a student, I liked building games and websites. Back then, it was considered an occupation for nerds. Promising students were expected to practice law or solve business cases. But I never really cared about how other people defined success. For me, success was in the ability to spend time creating things that I liked.

I never regret not buying expensive stuff wealthy people like to surround themselves with. The only regret I have is not having more time to build things.

We live in an era when the possibilities for human creativity are endless. One can invent robots, edit genes, design virtual worlds… There are so many exciting unknown areas to explore. I hope that more people will discover the enjoyment of building things for others. I hope that one day we, as a species, will turn away from the self-destructive path of never-ending consumption to a fulfilling journey of creating a better world for ourselves and those around us.

Klaus Schwab predicts a global cyber attack which

QUOTE

Jeremy Jurgens, WEF Managing Director:
“I believe that there will be another crisis. It will be more significant. It will be faster than what we’ve seen with COVID. The impact will be greater, and as a result the economic and social implications will be even more significant.”

Klaus Schwab:
“We all know, but still pay insufficient attention, to the frightening scenario of a comprehensive cyber attack could bring a complete halt to the power supply, transportation, hospital services, our society as a whole. The COVID-19 crisis would be seen in this respect as a small disturbance in comparison to a major cyberattack.

To use the COVID19 crisis as a timely opportunity to reflect on the lessons the cybersecurity community can draw and improve our unpreparedness for a potential cyber-pandemic.”

Patient In AstraZeneca COVID-19 Vaccine Trial Dies

bara bara api — Thu, 22 Oct 2020 01:28:36 +0800

In what appears to be the worst news yet concerning any of the leading COVID-19 vaccine candidates, a patient enrolled in the trial for AstraZeneca's COVID-19 vaccine candidate (which it's working on with Oxford) has died.

The news sent the company's ADRs to their lowest level since April.

How to make our city clean

bara bara api — Fri, 11 Sep 2020 23:57:46 +0800

I have a great idea how to make our city clean.

Since COVID19 makes us scare about the virus in the air so that we are forced to wear mask on our faces ("the new normal"™),

Why not next time, we invent a virus that lives in the garbage/trash on the street so that we are forced to clean it up ourselves.

Or maybe just push another narrative that says COVID19 can live inside trash.
