Nikolai Kardashev was a Soviet radio astronomer and astrophysicist who wanted to know how one could even detect extraterrestrial civilizations at all, the “SETI problem”.

He concluded: by energy consumption. The Kardashev scale is therefore not an ISO standard (ISO = Interstellar Standards Organization?), but a thinking tool devised by one person.

The scale says:

• Type 1: Uses all the energy available to its planet. For example, an albedo-zero world completely covered in solar cells.
• Type 2: Uses all the energy available to its star system. Not a million satellites in orbit, but a Dyson sphere that captures all the light and radiation of a star.
• Type 3: Uses the energy of all stars in a galaxy.

The idea of launching data centers into space, more precisely into LEO, must therefore be evaluated on a different scale:

The Kardashian scale

• A Type 1 civilization on the Kardashian scale has a public discourse that is no longer driven by facts, but by emotion and attention.
• A Type 2 civilization no longer has this discourse under control, and counterfactual emotional discourse begins to control politics, research, and the economy, where unscientific and outright stupid narratives now take over steering.
• A Type 3 civilization has complete epistemic decoupling: visibility has fully replaced truth, reach beats evidence, and consistency is irrelevant as long as the narrative is exciting. Physical limits are dismissed as “bad vibes”, and criticism is read as a moral flaw and subversion.

So we are not measuring energy, but loss of contact with reality. Many tech visions of recent years (everything from and including Bitcoin onward) map directly onto this scale.

We are now already a Kardashian Type 2 civilization.

“백인 노동자 차별”…나이키 ‘표적 조사’ 받는 까닭은

なんでもバキバキに解像してればいいってものじゃないけれど、やはり止まりでこれくらいの間合いなら、瞳への映り込みがちゃんと描写できてると嬉しいな​​

Nachricht von der Grundschule: "Die Kinder dürfen an diesem Tag gerne verkleidet zur Schule kommen 🦁🦄🐝
Bitte beachten Sie, dass Spielzeugwaffen sowie gruselige Masken nicht erlaubt sind."

Ich: Was ist mit Batman?

Meine Frau: Das ist okay, das ist ja nur ein reicher Mann

Ich: Das ist sehr gruselig!

So nehmen uns kriminelle Clans aus:

➡️ AfD-Abgeordnete aus #SachsenAnhalt beschäftigen gegenseitig Familienmitglieder (Eltern, Ehepartner, Geschwister, Kinder), um die Regel zu umgehen, dass man seine eigenen Familienmitglieder nicht anstellen darf.

➡️ Die eigenen Verwandten werden nicht direkt, sondern bei anderen AfD-Abgeordneten angestellt, um gesetzliche Verbote zu umgehen. Die Anstellungen werden aus der Staatskasse finanziert (z. B. bis zu 7.725 € monatlich).

Nikolai Kardaschow war ein Sowjetischer Radioastronom und Astrophysiker, der wissen wollte, wie man außeriridische Zivilisationen überhaupt erkennen kann, das "SETI-Problem".

Er dachte sich, "am Energieverbrauch". Die Kardaschow-Skala ist also keine ISO-Norm (ISO = Interstellare Normenorganisation?), sondern ein Denkwerkzeug für eine Person.

Die Skala sagt:

• Typ 1: Nutzt die ganze Energie, die dem Planeten zur Verfügung steht. Also zum Beispiel eine Albedo-Null-Welt, die komplett mit Solarzellen vollgestellt ist.

• Typ 2: Nutzt die ganze Energie, die dem Sonnensystem zur Verfügung steht. Also nicht etwa eine Million Satelliten in der Umlaufbahn, sondern eine Dyson-Sphere, die alles Licht, alle Strahlung eines Sterns aufnimmt.

• Typ 3: Nutzt die Energie aller Sterne einer Galaxis.

Wir müssen die Idee, Rechenzentren ins All, genauer in LEO, zu schießen, also auf einer anderen Skala bewerten:

Die Kardashian-Skala.

• Eine Typ 1-Zivilisation auf der Kardashian-Skala hat einen gesellschaftlichen Diskurs, der nicht mehr durch Fakten, sondern durch Emotion und Aufmerksamkeit gesteuert wird.
• Eine Typ 2-Zivilisation hat diesen Diskurs nicht mehr unter Kontrolle, und er kontrolliert Politik, Forschung und Wirtschaft, in denen jetzt unwissenschaftliche und quatschdumme Narrative die Steuerung übernehmen.
• Eine Typ 3-Zivilisation hat vollständige epistemische Entkopplung, also Sichtbarkeit Wahrheit vollkommen ersetzt, Reichweite Evidenz schlägt und Konsistenz irrelevant ist, solange das Narrativ nur spannend ist, physikalische Grenzen als "schlechte Vibes" gelten und Kritik als moralischer Makel und Zersetzung gelesen wird.

Wir messen also nicht Energie, sondern Realitätsverlust. Viele Tech-Visionen der letzten Jahre (alles ab und eingeschlossen Bitcoin) lassen sich direkt darauf abbilden.

Wir sind inzwischen schon eine Kardashian Typ 2-Zivilisation.

I’m waiting for the karma to hit, but these rich bast…. never seem to face any consequences.

ICE having a budget to rival a nation's military is a stark reminder that no right-wing objections to government services are ever about the cost. Money is no object, they are simply deciding what their goals are and your success and survival are never on their agenda.

'Codex in Xcode can probably take an entire ObjC project and convert it to Swift on its own'

Alright, bet.

I handed it the classic SameGame codebase, gave it my coding style markdown file, and said "So this is an old ObjC app for iOS. I would like you to completely convert it 1:1 to modern Swift, with the coding style in mind. Leave no ObjC behind"

No other prompts needed; I needed to update a few legacy things in the xcode project settings (min OS version, Swift version, etc), and got this:
