Layers of knowledge and secrets

Over the last few years, after coming across many new data channels and sources of information, I have come to the conclusion that there are layers of knowledge and many layers are hidden from common view and there are certain types of knowledge which are not written any where so as to protect the lives of the elite people involved.

It is difficult to come into these new layers of knowledge but not impossible. Be it Finance, Economics, Religion, Society, Marketing, Humanity, Power, etc.

To come across these layers, we need to read very different kinds of categories of books / podcasts / youtube interviews and some non-famous and maybe some controversial books too.

Based on these different true knowledge sources, we are then able to understand what is true and to listen/see and what is propoganda and to be avoided. But many things will never be clear as there are multiple logics to each side and different motivations to each side to spread their versions.

1 simple example is of contact with extra-terrestrial beings.

Learning areas

There are so many things to learn. 

This are the areas I am learning and / or applying myself and will continue to in this year.

Biggest areas: 

Where is humanity headed? What are the underlying power struggles whose symptoms are seen in war,  hoarding, policies, deception of masses, etc.? How is technology/ rich people moves going to affect humanity?

The Arena:

Global markets - commodities, companies, stock markets, innovations, the underlying assumptions, the unknown games big entities are playing.

Company:

Technical details, organisation of information, defining optimality and tuning business flows and functions to this optimality.

Human nature - Theories / Frameworks / Philosophies:

To understand human behaviour, purpose, power games, persuasion, logics, focus, getting better.

Self:
Identity, Purpose, Skillsets.

Evolution or Manifestation

The interesting case of the spider tailed horned viper.

The above video made me question the Darwinian theory of evolution.

Among all the snakes, how did this grow such an animal looking tail? Doesn't look like an evolution from anything near by.

I asked ChatGPT to explain the evolution of the spider tailed horned viper.

Its response:

Evolution does not “plan” spiders. It selects incremental advantages.

Stage 1 — Slightly Modified Tail Scales

Random mutations cause:

• Slight enlargement of tail tip scales

• Irregular keratin projections

If these movements vaguely resembled insects, birds may have approached more often.

Even a 5–10% hunting advantage → strong selection pressure.

Stage 2 — Selection for Leg-like Projections

Over generations:

• Mutations producing elongated, movable scale extensions

• Enhanced muscular control of tail tip

Birds (especially insectivorous passerines) mistake the motion for arthropods.

Snakes that looked “more spider-like” ate more.

They reproduced more.

Trait frequency increased.

---

Stage 3 — Fine-Tuned Mimicry

Eventually:

• Tail morphology became highly specialized

• Behavior evolved alongside structure

• Neural circuits adapted for rhythmic, spider-like twitching

This is co-evolution of morphology + behavior.

What I am not able to digest / understand is this: The mutation might have occurred with 1 viper. And it somehow became a dominant gene and that snake mated with so many other snakes that it managed to create a species eventually? 
Sounds more like Genghis Khan. 8% of Asian men have ancestry of Genghis Khan.

Or did the viper manifest a spider like tail and got it?

Descending the mountain of people connections

Having crossed 41 years old, I am very sure my half life is over.

I have come across thousands of people in this timeframe (family, extended families, school/college friends,  school/college seniors/juniors, neighbours, hostel mates, colleagues, customers, vendors, staff, acquittances, landlords, random strangers, business people networking, etc.)

2 years ago, 2 classmates died (one of whom was close) in the same year and in the last year another close friend classmate passed away. This got me thinking of the pattern and looking at the situation, I think this pattern is only going to be increase as most of my contacts are in the second half of their lives. I am going to regularly encounter deaths of known people irrespective of whatever happy or not situation I am in and I am going to have to accept it.

It looks like I have reached the mountain peak of people I would get to know in my life and now onwards, it is about descending the mountain of people I know.
