Quantum Computers

https://www.bloomberg.com/view/articles/2016-09-06/quantum-computers-are-co… [partial quote] Quantum mechanics, Carl Sagan once observed, is so strange that "common sense is almost useless in approaching it." Scientists still don't understand exactly why matter behaves as it does at the quantum level. Yet they're getting better at exploiting its peculiar dynamics -- in ways that may soon upend the technology business. One of the most interesting applications is in computing. In theory, quantum computers could take advantage of odd subatomic interactions to solve certain problems far faster than a conventional machine could. Although a full-scale quantum computer is still years off, scientists have lately made a lot of progress on thematerials, designs and methods needed to make one. And that could have some striking benefits. Quantum computers could simulate how atoms and molecules behave, to the greatadvantage of chemists and drug designers. They could solveoptimization problems -- say, how to efficiently route airplane traffic -- far faster than current technology can. They could speed advances in artificial intelligence, improve sensors, and lead to the design of stronger and lighter industrial materials.[end of partial quote] Jim Bell

[WAR] a turning point? Brzezinski, Mastermind of US Hegemony, Says Abandon Imperial Pipe Dreams
by Zenaan Harkness 02 Nov '19

02 Nov '19

This looks highly significant to me - public statement of defeat of US "world hegemony" regime, by Brzezinsky, very arguably "the US regime's architect". ** Even Brzezinski, Mastermind of US Hegemony, Says Abandon Imperial Pipe Dreams (http://russia-insider.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=fa2faf7034c3c3c413c…) ------------------------------------------------------------ by Mike Whitney on Wed, Aug 31, 2016 The original title of this article was: The Broken Chessboard: Brezinski Gives up on EmpireThe main architect of Washington’s plan to rule the world has abandoned the scheme and called for the forging of ties with Russia and China.

Spain to Catalonia: voting is illegal
by Zenaan Harkness 22 Oct '19

22 Oct '19

OK, ok, slight exaggeration - voting in a secession referendum is illegal, says Spain to Catalonia. Since only States are sovereign, and not people (say the States), secessionist referenda are illegal. And besides, it's for your safety. Crimea is a case in point - with a few million bullets fired, blood on the streets and carnage the world has rarely seen, Crimeans paid a high price for the reuniting with Russia. Oh, it didn't quite go like that? Oh well, you know, voting is illegal and all... and the State of Ukraine murdering it's own people in a genocidal attempt to cause them to "reunite" with the other land, we have a prime example of why the State must, at all times, be granted ultimate sovereignty, and the people must be dominated with bullets. And missiles. And land mines, shelling, RPGs and everything else the state can muster, to establish order in the world. "Democracy" loving Westerners both decry the Crimean's zero bullet referendum (what a concept), whilst demanding the USA's "God" given right to impose "democracy" by missile upon any unsuspecting nation State that has some excess oil. Or lots of non-excess oil that the USA wants. Or other resources... And on and on the Western "moral high ground" hypocrisy goes... Cue another ridiculous jnn rant in 3 ... 2 ... What a world we live in. Catalonia sets date for landmark vote on independence from Spain https://www.rt.com/news/391627-catalonia-independence-vote-date/ The autonomous region of Catalonia will have the decisive referendum on secession from Spain on October 1, the regional government announced on Friday. The move comes after a months-long standoff with Madrid, which decries the vote as illegal.

For those interested here is the Case source code of a scheme for key exchange similar in concept to a DH Key exchange process, but using simple bitwise operations with an iterated function: https://github.com/Caume/HerraduraKEx Sample of the output: ALICE: 15076425430454950481 A [Secret 1] 5065174741009230133 B [Secret 2] 6616145336279823145 D [FSCX_REVOLVE(A,B,16)] -> BOB: A2 5640910407791789943 [Secret 3] B2 2734548036544947114 [Secret 4] <- D2 7953994751009905686 [FSCX_REVOLVE(A2,B2,16)] 11220837854338859672 FA [FSCX_REVOLVE(D2,B,48) xor A] FA = FA2 11220837854338859672 [FSCX_REVOLVE(D,B2,48) xor A2] EVE: NOT (D xor D2)= 14577306244540485824 EVE: D xor D2= 3869437829169065791 EVE: FSCX(D,D2)= 14126811020873148126 EVE: FSCX(D2,D)= 14126811020873148126 EVE: FSCX(D,D2) xor D= 11519582121138542071 EVE: FSCX(D2,D) xor D= 11519582121138542071 ...

A driver was stuck in a traffic jam on the highway outside washington dc. Nothigh was moving. Suddenly a man knocks on the window. The driver rolls down the window and asks "what's going on/" "Terrorists have kidnapped the entire US congress and they're asking for a $100 million dollar ransom. Otherwise they are going to douse them all in gasoline and set them on fire. We are going from car to car collecting donations" "How much is everyone giving on an averate?" the driver asks. The man replies "roughly a gallon".

censorship v free speech, not money, is a foundation for a free society/ world
by Zenaan Harkness 05 Feb '19

05 Feb '19

Communities exist without money, and have done so since time immemorial. But without our free right to communicate with one another, no community can survive, let alone flourish. Our basic human rights (to survive, communicate, move about in our community (travel)) are the foundations to any society that can ever approach the concept "a free society". Websites, in particular those website the (((media elites and those who control us))) don't like, are regularly simply blocked or semi blocked. And no "just use an ip address" or "private companies, they can do what they want" is no answer to the domination of our community, the domination of our peoples, that we experience. Each of the following sites currently blocked in Australia, even with javascripting enabled, but without an error, so semi-blocked, thus quite sinisterly undermining the freedom of communication we supposedly hail in "democracies": https://daviddukeonline.com/product-category/david-duke-report/ https://daviddukeonline.com/ https://davidduke.com/ https://daviddukeonline-eu.com And we know our "favourite" nationalist websites have been sent to the dark web to appear at all, looks like The Duke is similarly being sent to ground. This is your world, people. Good luck,
