Dear Ricardo,

Thanks for your thought when you posted the "realty check".

Unfortunately, the content was too much for this system to handle. I was unable to see a thing it may have offered.

"Gun control" probably does touch on the power structure here and everywhere. Maybe at another time I may be able to see what you saw. Meanwhile, tonight's show on Obama's desire to have a new Sec. Defense and Dir. CIA was insightful enough for much thought. And it was followed by Goolsby and Leonhardt on the economy. My head is spinning. Happy New Year to you.

In a nutshell:

1. We need spending/investing not the austerity plan to repeat the great depression and world war.

2. Gun control, narcotics, and crime remain big -- including their impact on education and entertainment. But money, trade and world war come first. Science and health come second. Crime and corruption come third.

I am a great believer in "Abundance" by Peter Deamandis and in the significance of the nuclear arsenals that delay world war. If these arsenals spread to Iran, North Korea, and the like, "accident" becomes more likely, and what will follow may reorganize civilization. Casino capitalism may disappear. It had its moments. But it was not effective enough to make lasting peace inevitable. If we ever recover, or if we fail to commit a global suicide attempt in the first place, then we must try functional fiance by Abba Lerner as the remedy for "life without purpose" which seems to govern evolution at the moment.

Gelles, have a Healthy and Happy New Year.

Here is my predictions for 2013 regarding the US and Brazilian economy:

Please, please, please fix the video link. This was a great interview and I would love to watch it again in its entirety.

Aspects of the recent interview with Paul Jacobs, CEO of Qualcomm, were reminiscent of a presentation by Lynn Stout (Distinguished Professor of Corporate & Business Law, Cornell University Law School) which also aired recently. They both point out the systemic 'hurdles' our society has introduced in regards to conducting corporate research and development.

Qualcomm certainly appears to be wrestling with the structural limitations and pushing forward with research and development. Unfortunately, it appears that their stock is being unjustly penalized for their efforts.

I have not had the opportunity yet to see your full interview with Paul Jacobs, but what I have seen I can greatly identify with. I have been some flavor of telecom design engineer for over 20 years now. I have thought/worked through a lot of the concepts Paul discussed -- including mobile device 'personalities/behavior' related to location (see US patent #7,194,278). The current corporate research and development environment is much too short term oriented for the good of our nation.

Paul Jacobs, CEO of QUALCOMM, talked of horizontal partnerships which encourage cooperation and collaboration to make sense of astronomical streams of data with the potential to support rational markets to replace current trading systems fail to finance demand when anachronistic law and economics block connections to connect government to the big picture for fear of trying to pick winners.

Markets run on money, but nature has propelled military engineering to the point that losing is not a viable option that can be left to chance. Government is financing markets but markets are not financing government. The riddle of leaving success to consumers who know virtually nothing of systems and information theory but whose needs are the essence of the overarching goals of political economy must be and can be solved government chooses life over death and conforms supply and demand to life and not to chance.

The movie "The Company Men" with Ben Affleck and Tommy Lee Jones was replayed the other night in San Diego on TV. It had the story of how to cure the absence of rational demand upside down. It honored manual labor and human sympathies. But the need for horizontal partnerships to be protected from law and economics that invites masses of people to be losers because their contributions on the demand side have never been rationalized based on information science ahead of obsolete financial operations.

The Consumer Electronics Show and Jacobs speech and dog and pony show will talk of connecting our hearts to our hands to apply medicine on time. But will it connect our wallets to our stomachs ahead of Armageddon?

We must have an economic security agency modeled on the NSA that support reform in Washington and Wall Street before the Streets in San Diego are glowing from radiation delivered by law and economics created without benefit of marriage via science and engineering.

where it can be edited and changed from now to Kingdom Come. Charlie Rose, the best TV in town, has yet to see fit to pay attention to its archive.

Yes Charlie, WOW!

PAUL JACOBS: In fact one of the projects that we have, sort of a very far-out project that we have in our lab came out of the Neurosciences Institute that’s in La Jolla as well where some scientists figured out how to build a model of the neuron that’s computational very efficient, meaning you can do this.

CHARLIE ROSE: Wow.

PAUL JACOBS: And so we’ve actually been building –

CHARLIE ROSE: The model of the neuron.

PAUL JACOBS: Right and we put them together and we create a retina and then we create the cells that go behind a retina and now this thing actually looks at stuff and it says if I show it a picture it says that’s interesting, that’s not interesting, and it can follow things around.

And we didn’t program it. We just taught it. It’s very fascinating and it works the way your brain works. It’s the neurons sends a little spike and it travels a certain amount of time and gets to the next neuron and then there’s you know spikes that all come together and when they add up another spike comes out. And that’s how your brain is actually working inside and we’re modeling that in silicon now.

(Sounds like an episode for the Brain Series.)

Paul tells us there is a huge place for government because companies cut their own R&D in order to get more profitable.

There is simply no question that the U.S. government has provided massive support for industries like aircraft, semiconductors and the Internet.

Fracking, by the way, was a technique pioneered with funding and help from the Department of Energy--and after watching the interviews with the Scientists in the special features of "Gasland" requires even more research.

SharkswithfrikingLazers  01/04/2013 02:18 AM Report

Yes, let's look at Bell Labs:

Charlie, perhaps Jon Gertner joined by Thomas Friedman (because Thomas wants 100K engineers going crazy with design).

Paul, thank you and your company for spending $4B on R&D.

SharkswithfrikingLazers  01/04/2013 02:05 AM Report

Paul mentions a digital sixth sense to the things around you. Your phone will merge cyberspace and the physical space around you.

Let us hope it is not noise like tinnitus nor too much information in the cockpit where fighter pilots have to start turning off devices.

Perhaps Siri will only talk to me about what is important to me via a Google like algorithm that I can tune.

SharkswithfrikingLazers  01/04/2013 01:51 AM Report

He tells us their claim to fame is to integrate more things into one piece of silicon than anyone else.

No flying car?

How about getting Siri as good as in the commercials?

Then, like the 3D printers, a 3D television image, perhaps holographic.

You don't need to get inside my body before that.

More than 75 direct or indirect Linkabit spinoff companies have been identified — a rate twice that of Fairchild Semiconductor, the legendary progenitor of Silicon Valley. [4]

QUALCOMM is the best known.
