@Cross_Worder

Likes cryptic word puzzles? Likes to argue? Likes a fencing duel? Or, just annoyed with words? That describes me if you can solve it (5, 6).

Name one case besides the Epstein network where this much evidence existed and so few arrests were made. We’ll wait.

@glennbeck Glenn's playing Baghdad Bob. *Oh, don't look at the input, look at the output." Even if Trump joined to control the outcome - we don't know that - how does that prove he wasn't duped into joining? 😂

After I saw President Trump call out Israel for striking the South Pars gas field, something clicked for me. He didn't join Israel's war with Iran because he was duped. He stepped in to control the OUTCOME of the war.

António Guterres
António Guterres@antonioguterres·
I have two clear messages: First, to the United States & Israel: It’s high time to end this war that is risking to get out of control, causing immense suffering on civilians, with dramatic effects on the global economy & potentially tragic consequences, especially for the least developed countries. Second, my message to Iran: Stop attacking your neighbors, they were never parties to the conflict. The Security Council has condemned these attacks, has ordered them to stop, as it has order to open the Strait of Hormuz. The prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz causes enormous pain for so many people around the world who have nothing to do with this conflict. It’s time for the force of the law to prevail over the law of the force. It’s time for diplomacy to prevail over war. My remarks from the European Council in Brussels: un.org/sg/en/content/…

There are people who speak with absolute confidence about topics they have barely explored, as if a few articles or videos were enough to master a complex field. This phenomenon has a name in psychology: the Dunning–Kruger effect, described by researchers David Dunning and Justin Kruger. Its central idea is uncomfortable but revealing: those with low ability in a given area often lack the very skills needed to recognize their own limitations. In their studies, they found that participants who performed worst in tasks such as logic, grammar, or even humor tended to rate themselves far above their actual level. In other words, the less they knew, the more they overestimated their competence. This is not simply arrogance, but a lack of metacognition, the ability to accurately assess what one knows and does not know. And this is the key point: to evaluate a skill properly, you largely need that same skill. Later research has shown that this effect becomes more pronounced when the subject is particularly complex or when personal or ideological beliefs are involved. In such contexts, it is common to see individuals with very superficial knowledge in areas like medicine, climate science, or economics expressing themselves with disproportionate confidence, while those who have spent years studying the topic tend to be far more cautious, precisely because they understand the depth and uncertainties involved. The most important aspect, however, is that this bias does not only affect “other people.” We are all susceptible to it in some domain. We may be highly competent in our professional field while having a completely distorted self-assessment in others without realizing it. Moreover, the effect also works in the opposite direction: those with greater expertise often underestimate their own knowledge, because they are fully aware of how much they still do not know. At its core, this effect highlights a clear relationship: deep knowledge tends to be accompanied by humility, whereas ignorance, unable to perceive its own limits, often presents itself with a level of certainty that is not always justified.

I'm going to make some obvious points. (1) Blowing up all the oil infrastructure in the Middle East is an insane idea, and may well result in a global economic crash and humanitarian crisis unrivaled in the lives of those now living. We're talking about the price of everything everywhere rising, from food to gas, at a moment when inflation was already high. All of that will be laid at the feet of the authors of this war. (2) The antebellum status quo of Feb 27, 2026 was just not that bad, but we're unlikely to return to it. Expect indefinite, long-term, ongoing disruptions to everything out of the Middle East. (3) Also assume tech financing crashes for the indefinite future. The genius plan to get the Gulf states caught in the crossfire has incinerated much of the funding for LPs, for datacenters, and for IPOs. Anyone in tech who supported this war may soon learn the meaning of "force majeure" as funding gets yanked. (4) Many capital allocators will instead be allocating much further down Maslow's hierarchy of needs, towards useful basic things like food and energy. (5) It's fortunate that all those progressives yelled about the "climate crisis." Yes, their reasoning about timelines was wrong, and much of the money was wasted in graft, but the result was right: we all need energy independence from the Middle East, pronto. It's also fortunate that Elon and China autistically took climate seriously. Now they're going to need to ship a billion solar panels, electric vehicles, batteries, nuclear power plants, and the like to get everyone off oil, immediately. (6) It's not just an oil and gas problem, of course. It's also a fertilizer problem, and a chemical precursor problem. Maybe some new sources will come online at the new prices, but it takes time to dial stuff up, particularly at this scale, so shortages are almost a certainty. That said, China has actually scaled up coal-to-chemicals[a,c] (C2C), and there's also something more sci-fi called Power-to-X[b] which turns arbitrary power + water + air into hydrocarbons. But all of that will need to get accelerated. I have a background in chemical engineering so may start funding things in this area. (7) Ultimately, this war is going to result in tremendous blame for anyone associated with it. It's a no-win scenario to blow up this much infrastructure for so many people. Simply not worth it for whatever objective they thought they were going to attain. But unless you're actually in a position to stop the madness, the pragmatic thing to do is: scramble to mitigate the fallout to yourself, your business, and your people.
