Pushing myself to problem solve last couple of days gave me a not surprising answer that when it came to money making matters should focus on making proper business connections. Which am sure is correct. And defining the problem is key to getting a good answer.
With other areas realized that maybe had not focused on properly defining the problem.
Like imagine you are in a bank, to make a deposit, and you see the vault door is open, and some people calmly walk into the bank, into the vault, and back out with bags of cash. They are clearly just ordinary looking people hopping into their cars after they leave and there is a steady stream as you watch. You look at teller aghast and demand to know what's going on. The teller calmly looks at you, says nothing is happening and that did NOT happen.
You worriedly leave the bank, and head for nearest police station, but simply when you enter the police station, is the SAME teller smiling at you, asking to be of service...and yeah, sounds like a nightmare, right?
That is an analogy to the academic world.
Academics in a field of study both are to be the dedicated experts in that area, and the policing authority usually for problems within that area of study. Academics primarily police themselves in their area of expertise. Is an old system that dates back to medieval periods.
Yes there are ways academic fraud can bring in other policing authority. And sometimes like at a university the administration supposedly has some. But especially with tenured faculty, where tenure is something from ancient times, reality can be is functionally rarely if ever used as to the academic field of study.
Academics would probably roar in fury if say, a college administrator dared question them on procedures for checking validity of their research. They check each other. Yeah is an old system dating back to medieval periods.
Yet I found a problem where mathematicians can create a fake paper that is correct by their own mathematical rules, so you need to fix the rules, right?
Paper instead gets yanked by chief editor claiming withdrawn, and journal shuts down after one more issue. European Mathematical Information Service, which is an agency learned archives mathematical journals, puts paper back up thankfully in its own separate file, where is to this day, where have talked this story and over a decade goes by with me wondering what can be done.
The mathematicians still as far as I know can create fake math papers with this problem that look correct. But they are also the policing authority in this area.
Gave a functional definition that authority relative to one entity is when some other entity has information needed.
Like mathematicians are expected to be authorities on mathematics. And they have information needed by others in their field of study on which that authority rests. We can often think of authority as represented by the position itself, while my point is to focus on the knowledge needed for that position.
Like a person can be a police officer and wear the uniform but what if slept through all classes in police academy then could fumble with actually performing duties of a police officer.
Well there that explains it. With academics and a problem where needed to go to the authorities with mathematicians, was right back with mathematicians which I did not see as a huge problem--over a decade ago.
But just accepted the system that was there. And what else could I do really?
Also explains why can't just let it go. We're talking about a serious societal problem, like that bank robbing analogy above. To let it go, have to give up on society in the broad. And imagine trying to build your life in some other area, knowing such a huge flaw existed in such a prestigious and important one?
Where also can be scary. YOU know the problem exists. THEY know you know.
One powerful concept that is helping me out recently: yes, you can become witness to something and have a social duty, and it can be difficult, but worth fighting for what you believe.
Well that defines the problem space better I think. But then, what is the solution?

Discovery is worth it regardless
Well a very thorough assessment with bouncing ideas off web which is part of my process concluded no conspiracy with regard to my difficulty making money. Focused on lack of business connections which to me in retrospect is like, duh. And once again to me revealed that simple explanation is usually correct.
But was fun as well and covered a lot of territory, where put a lot out in a tweet stream as bounced ideas in an interesting process know how to do more than explain. Is very thorough though.
Still there are things here that fascinate me as to demonstrated at this point.
Yes, have these major discoveries. Actually have solid guess about what is going on with math ones, but is weird to watch play out over so many years. With other things am now thinking different things may be in play as well.
The age of the discoverer may simply be passed.
Today is more about celebrity and people jealous over and fighting for attention.
The simple notion that truth is important in and of itself is lost in the modern world. Academics primarily chase their own type of celebrity claiming is about funding. And a public increasingly sees it all as some kind of entertainment, which has made it more difficult to talk certain things, like climate change.
People know they just don't like the idea of climate change. Is like they can't figure out how to turn the channel on the subject. But slowly is gaining more awareness is not a movie or a television show, but is a very dangerous thing that will impact us all.
Maybe I am the last. Here at the early part of the computer age when maybe AI's will take over better anyway. Having struggled even with massive discoveries that would have been eagerly cheered and accepted in the past.
If so that is so...weird. Eventually will figure out some kind of way to get major discoveries their due.
But to be the last great discoverer of humanity. What an honor would rather not have.
Maybe not though as how would you know? Still the resistance am facing? Is kind of telling.
Human beings have moved on somehow in some weird and deep way. Besides, I locked up quite a few. Defined mathematical proof, and found a better way to define science and entertainment and so much more.
Still I know there is an infinity of knowledge available. But a finite amount relevant to the human species. Still there is so much more cool and important that is a major discovery that could be discovered I believe. But maybe I would always so believe just as part of who I am.
Scientists are relentlessly working with what past major discoverers opened up. Eventually yes, they will also am sure be finding much more with mine as well. But that is different from the big ones.
Those massive discoveries that just shift so much. They are so cool. Take SO much effort to find.
Humanity though? Just may no longer be that curious for anyone to bother, or even if they do, get it properly acknowledged. Reality is, we do have enough things for very comfortable lives, if we can quit messing each other and our planet up.
Maybe the lack of that pressure...no. Will refuse to believe it. Am NOT the last great discoverer.
Will simply trust that am not, on faith. Humanity will stay curious enough. I just know it.

What is missing in analysis then?
At least should be clear am not seeking attention from math folks. The math controversy WAS fun, will admit. That of course makes sense when a person is correct and never really bugged me too much. But shifted as started taking money problem seriously, without effect.
Reality is most people do not care in that area, one way or the other, and I do not blame them.
Still folks don't want to feel stupid from talking up someone who is way wrong. And trolls can test an ability to check, and why bother? Is like, if is correct, why are they after a person, is easy to think.
My distancing from people in the math field I guess does not help.
But why should I care if some mathematicians don't believe things mathematically correct really? It will outlast them.
The trolls aren't checking either I found out. They just look for targets, and couldn't be bothered to verify if math is wrong or not. Reality is, I don't care about them much. But am debating how much they can influence.
Where think is better now, as more people learn such behavior. And if believe in web search can check things quickly. Which have addressed recently noting a divide, where will focus on the people with the modern point of view. So yeah, if wish to check people can rapidly.
And web attention draw was cool and addictive. Especially as I tested it.
Yeah and don't like that addictive aspect which I believe is under control now. Kind of gets to that power corrupts...but have no power. Is more like influence can corrupt.
Could shift so many things. And not like was hiding it either. Was funny to think of world leaders getting weird updates about my latest, trying to understand it, if they did. If they didn't then they just have crappy analysis missing important. Plenty of things were most definitely ME, and I'd talk it out before, during and after.
And none of that is gone AT ALL. Right now could fiddle with any number of things as all through free things, without concern that will go away. And am much more responsible now. Before didn't seem real, but now it does.
Am beginning to pay more attention to others maybe lying now about their current influence as it has rapidly waned. THEY can be convincing to many including global leaders. As how would those know?
Web has changed so much so fast.
The quiet is what is messing me up. But I LIKE the quiet. Ok. Maybe progress?
Yeah that has to be key. Means am NOT getting necessary information which of course is important when you talk about a product or service sold to others.
My lack of work on feedback and enjoyment of the quiet as I like to call it, may be the thing.
And then it is just about what am doing. No mysterious conspiracy or others needed.
Makes sense. But then if love the quiet so much, how would I change? How do you start the conversation then? Still is a possibility am evaluating, along with others.
Well there is the problem because that back-and-forth flow of information is STILL key regardless. Even to determine if there is some other type of interference.
There focus should be as the problem to be solved. Getting necessary conversation going, and maintaining it.
Yup. Analysis so far where think is for the most part is complete is: no conspiracy. Best analysis is: failure to make meaningful social connections that will move towards business goals.
That is not what was thinking answer would be.

Narrowing focus on money problem
One thing have noticed is that I become more forthcoming about things when running out of money, which is routine, or when in a difficult situation from lack of it. Maybe I need to just work at more transparency as a basic principle. But originally supposed would NOT bring up certain speculative things as simply being polite, where also could impact money-making potential.
Lots of idea success with ideas that draw attention have discussed much, so can shift focus from there. And DID ponder money as explained before from the troubling lack. Which wasn't completely puzzling to me in the past, as there are just certain things do not want to do. So you accept consequences.
Now though really have ran into a wall, which has me focusing also on facts that have not moved things.
Facts which do not depend on the source. Which was part of the point. I'd put certain things out there where didn't matter where came from, as so useful would pull things along.
And talking about action driving information. Facts which should drive decisions. Those can separate from myself as source too. That is key. Is one of the indicators of some kind of other influence.
That plan did not work as it should have.
In one case am looking at apparently people behaving with increasing energy to do double-think when they should not try, and world is allowing. Is a huge area too, with growing negative consequences.
That is SO weird. But am hand's off to a large extent as study it. Is is NOT my fault either. I just find the facts. But what some people do is so very strange to me, with facts.
Reality is that to a large extent I just find such things curious. Am focusing more now on what may be deliberate efforts to make certain I find it difficult to monetize ANYTHING at all. Now THAT is what has me shifting gears a bit. Have ran through some possibles but keep bumping into one problem: What's the motivation?
There shouldn't be sufficient motivation for any entities capable of pulling off the feat. So shouldn't be happening? Or is it? Maybe is just me.
There should focus. Is not easy to make money on the web I tell myself. But is that true? Challenge each assumption. But also I constantly have very puzzling data. Vast reach with very low audience numbers according to sources where numbers act odd I think. But checked, and re-checked and re-checked the primary source for that data which is Google, and also have other sources. My analysis came up empty every time. Data apparently is legit.
Yeah but that is a benefit and a problem. Get kind of stuck with just enough information you NEED to be concerned. Where also I've had little ability to be certain of the context or why. Who are these people from all over the globe and with what interest really?
Which becomes SO very important to monetization. So yeah, the interest is there from objective sources. Checking them doesn't give reason to doubt. But then have just enough information to wonder about the rest.
There must be some other effect in operation. And not even trying to make MUCH money. Am finding it difficult to make any at all.
Which is unfortunate. Is not like I need much. And would rather be doing other research than pondering such things. Well is now my most interesting problem though. And that is something.

Considering possibilities
Have some serious intellectual achievements which really are not moving the needle as the saying goes. That is, there is not the expected reaction to these various tools which help humanity understand our reality better. Kind of makes me wonder where is the block.
With over a decade to seriously ponder have eliminated a variety of possibilities. Early one made sure to consider was aliens from outer space. Yeah sounds silly but we have a planet full of people STILL dumping huge amounts of greenhouse gases into our atmosphere. Situation is actually capable of ending most life on the planet if a runaway greenhouse effect occurs, which most people do not understand. Would kill everything but hardy bacteria. You'd die gasping for air as your lungs burned out.
However my analysis indicated that was just cynical human behavior at work.
Try as I could, could only eliminate not only the possibility of aliens from outer space doing anything here on our planet, but could eliminate through all of human history. We have not been visited during the lifetime of our species. The aliens are out there, yes. But they have no reason to come here. And plenty of reasons to avoid.
Also considered possibility of a vast human conspiracy, and eliminated. After checking most weird things that humans are doing through studying news reports, realized that over and over again was just looking at wealth hoarding behavior. Yes, there are wealthy people destabilizing countries routinely and even starting wars, but is JUST to make more money. There is no other reason except for one case, which to me is just weird. Analysis indicated, and speculating wildly here, some powerful family with its own private army funded by selling drugs, prepared for Armageddon. But I think they're just deluded.
Finally am focusing on the money people. Analysis indicates strong resistance to web elimination of the distribution problem. Certain people behind the scenes am now concluding are taking extraordinary measures to try and maintain control, including faking popularity for certain people. Which just hit the news recently. But feel like am grasping at straws.
Kind of wished WAS aliens from outer space. And could convince them to take me away. But while I may be the one human capable of figuring out how to build a real starship, maybe but yeah even for me that maybe a major reach, am in a situation where clearly no one cares. Or apparently no one does. But why not?
To me is like a running joke--wanting a starship. That one is fantasy, far as I know now.
I keep advancing though, so part of me is like, who knows? Maybe, eventually.
Reality though is have demonstrated enough things to where there is no doubt on so much. Who knows if could design a starship engine, but definitely have some difficult to believe intellectual accomplishments, and keep piling them on. Yet this situation continues.
And no, fear is not a factor. Have things that go back well over a decade and that emotion dissipates.
Should really just seem cool. Major discoveries. What's not to like?
Am first major discoverer at my level to face such a situation. Is weird. Will continue to analyze. Beginning another phase of problem solving with the blog. So this post brings in web assistance as once again begin to bounce ideas around the planet.
Has worked before.
Am still an optimist then. Is just another problem to solve. And this post is just first real step.
