Viejo Verde

 Joe Biden looks at a little girl in the audience, the daughter of a veteran, and says "I love those barrettes in your hair. Man I’ll tell you what, look at her she looks like she's 19 years old sitting there like a little lady with her legs crossed."

In Argentina, people like Biden were called - affectionately - Viejo Verde, Green Old Man. Signaling that he was immature or possibly senile. Left: a Spanish satirical magazine from 1914, documenting that the issue is not new nor unknown. General Peron used to visit girls' schools during physical education classes. Of course, he was a dirty old fascist dictator.

Houston, we have a problem.

Dark Perspectives for Israel

 It has been announced that Bennet, from the Zionist Religious Party, is forming the government with Secular Lapid and ferociously anti-religious Liberman (representing the Russian immigrant public, hated by the religious). The next government will include the far-left Meretz and Labor. And the extreme anti-Israeli Muslim parties This will be the first time that a defeatist antireligious government rules Israel, planning to dismantle the Haredi educational network and the settlements. Very bad. Hope they cannot hold it together and will fall soon and Netanyahu will come back to save the nation. 

The Land of the Windswept Bonsai

 

I am not here but inside the Inugami-ke no Ichizoku mystery, pondering the murders in the Inugami clan (a name meaning Dog God), solved by detective Kondaichi. It is a classical story but in a Japanese environment. The violence is highly stylized, the agonizing formality and politeness sound awkward in the ears of this uncultured Jew, but we are in refined Japan, the land of the windswept bonsai, not Shuk HaCarmel.  

The Old Jew Working

Designing a large factory in the "Occupied Territories". The smiling smoker is the Project Manager. The weather was perfect, a fresh sprint morning in the Shomron mountains. 

Judging character

 I caught my 8 y.o. grandaughter drawing realistic pictures of people, reading long books, and making math calculations. She has such an insufferable temper that I did not notice that she is intelligent. 

A Bot Explains the Creation

 

There are things that prove that the universe is not real, that is, we are not real in the sense we believe it. We cannot see/touch the limits of the universe because light/waves travel at a fixed velocity and the supposed limits are expanding outwards faster. We cant explain the inherent stress/instability of vacuum, how energy appears from nothing. Being simulated makes no difference to this old Jew, I still need to work and pay my debts. I shall ignore the impossible/unexplained wonders of the universe and proceed with planning the Ramle wastewater system.   ...    How is the infrastructure operating us? Its maximum operating velocity is 300,000 km per second, that is in one second it can survey and modify (following programmed laws) a radius of 300,000 km. How much information is contained in that area/volume? The total volume  of the universe - at the present time - is 3.58×10⁸⁰ m³

^{and it is expanding at a known rate. Does the addition of more volume mean that more information is added? How much information can process the infrastructure? There must be a limit to its memory and the quantity of information it can process, and when that is reached, the whole thingie will crash or restart and repeat itself in an infinite loop. As said, it makes no difference to me. My problem is not the end of the universe but getting money and soon. (Does the infrastructure hear prayers?)}

I wonder if the inflation of the universe is homogeneous, because if it is there will arrive a point when the distance from NYC to San Francisco will become so large that it will take 105 days to travel from here to there - even traveling with a fast clipper, and then, even at the velocity of the light.

Google Gains Moral Supremacy. Kylin Wins the Contract.

In November 2019 some 1,100 Google employees signed an open letter demanding the company they work for does more to tackle climate change. The letter calls on Google to commit to "zero emissions by 2030, zero contracts to enable or accelerate the extraction of fossil fuels, and zero collaboration with entities enabling the incarceration, surveillance, displacement, or oppression of refugees or frontline communities."

Last week 700 "Jewish and allies" demanded that Google break its contracts with Israel, and especially with Zahal. I think they are abusing the company that treats them so well, they are acting against the vital interests of their country. They will have to cope with the disturbing paradox that they are trying so hard to be good and moral, while everybody considers them evil racists and colonialists. And unreliable and disruptive. Jews, in short. 

BTW, I think the Chinese are doing a good job in eliminating the East Turkestan terrorist movement, and teaching them the Chinese language and a trade.  

Post Scriptum: I was wrong and did not notice that it was fake news and NOT Google. "Because none of the “news sites” seems to have checked and confirmed, that the "250" employees of Google really existed in reality. None of the articles identified even one employee by name – not a single name in the article in The Marker, nor in Calcalist, nor in Globes. Could it be that the "leading journalists" who wrote these "articles" did not locate, and certainly did not interview, even one alleged signatory? In today’s world of sloppy journalism – that can be. 

Yes, the "articles", those in English at least, do provide an authentic link to a "letter" that the employees allegedly signed. There’s proof for you!

But follow the link. The letter is eerily devoid of signatures. It is in fact no more than an unsigned fledgling petition that invites you, the reader, to sign.

Furthermore, even if you do choose to believe, as an article of liberal faith, that 250 people did sign, before all these articles came out -- do not assume these were 250 Jews. Also, do not assume that they are 250 employees of Google. Because the uploaded document indicates -- in the small print at the very end -- that the signatories - if any – are not actually all “Jewish Googlers”. Instead, they are “Jewish Googlers, allies, and external supporters”. So among the signers (if any) there are some Google employees, and there are some Jews, but there are also "allies" (who are not Jewish), and "outside supporters" (who are not Google employees)...
