I realise it’s possible to deal with more than one problem at a time, but goodness me.

These people really need the Tao Te Ching

oh lord I cannot imagine how they would torment nexus the tao de ching.

…wait yes I can. they’d decide that LLMs are the tao. “What’s perfectly whole seems flawed, but you can use it forever.” “To know without knowing is best.” “If those in power could hold to the Way, the ten thousand things would look after themselves.”

The entrance to the Mysterious Female Is called the root of Heaven and Earth

Endless flow Of inexhaustible energy
