"Many powerful folks in media tech and finance read Lauren Balik to learn about Deep State trades and lore 😉 My main qualm with the Vanity Fair piece out today is it is missing the swap of Italian Mafia power for Russian-Jewish Mafia power that aligned with the decline of the Soviet Union in late 1980s/early 1990s. My position is that this power swap in NYC area and Florida is the most important baseline for understanding PayPal/Thiel/Musk/Sacks Israel 2000 Election and Republican shift of Florida and even the sub-partition of Africa proxy wars btw Israel & China going on right now.

""Lauren you were the only analyst publicly talking up $NBIS on a Clickhouse case over a year ago." Yes. Clickhouse is fast and clear. It is a fast road and all the incumbents it competes against have great esoteric mysteries with hidden tolls once gameplay begins and many customers and engineers have gotten fed up with $SNOW and similar toll roads games in cyber. Data/Cyber Engineers used to want great mysteries to solve at work and to be oracles and soothsayers of nuance in their professional lives. Then they relaxed and sought clarity in their personal lives. Today Data/Cyber Engineers want"

"This one clicked the💡on for many about psychotic AI writing schizophrenic writing and Talmudic loose association pattern matching. I show the example of Allen Ginsberg someone we Gentiles have read. Yes all these consumer LLM systems are in fact designed exactly on the Talmud and this is not disclosed and this is why people are going crazy as LLMs have been rolled out over the past XXX years. Since LLMs are what is propping up the stock market via data center capex buildouts the Talmud is therefore what is floating the US economy as more and more people go insane. This is the esoteric stock"

Some of these fools purposefully turned their brains off to "go deeper" into OpenAI and let OpenAI think for them. Because"
