Programming the Future

So I watched this documentary called The Forecaster recently. It's about this man named Martin Armstrong. He developed a mathematical model and wrote some software back in the 80s which is able to predict pretty much every economic boom and bust, as well as the resulting social and political ramifications.

His program runs on DOS and still works to this day. You can see screenshots in some of his blog posts here:

Anyway, he created a trillion dollar investment firm around his software, and had big clients. Elite bankers, heads of state, shady arms dealers, you name it. He unwittingly got involved in a scheme to launder money from Russia into US banks, and when he found out, he tried to get out. But they went after him and used him as a scapegoat, throwing him in prison for 12 years without charges. All this time, they kept trying to get the source code to his software, but he wouldn't give in. Eventually, they couldn't keep him any longer without undermining the existing laws and forced him to plea to a deal, and he eventually got out. But not before they tried to assassinate him in prison, two times that failed.

So what did his software predict? It predicted the bond crash in 1994, the .COM bubble of 2001, the home mortage/stock crisis of 2008, and major currency/stock crisis in September of 2015. The software was also able to predict the wars in the middle east, and is predicting for a major war escalation in 2018, something could quite possibly become WW3.

So the question is. Did his software predict the future? Or did it create the future by changing the sentiments of the world elite to make bets and trade in favor of the model his software created?

Is his software about to conjure WW3 out of thin air?

It seems like a mixture between psychohistory from Asimov's Foundation and a bit of Jew bullshit.

And don't forget DOS!

It sounds cool but without his algorithm, it's pretty much meaningless to me. Anyway if he was so smart, he'd be able to ride the financial waves predicted by his model. I wonder why he doesn't.

Because he was in jail, can't you even read?

Or did it create the future by changing the sentiments of the world elite to make bets and trade in favor of the model his software created?

This is more common than one would think, especially when it comes to stock markets.

>>5
If he runs a blog in this day, I can hardly agree that he's in jail today.

>>5
Where does it say that? I'm not in the mood to read all this Nostradamus bullshit.

So where are the predictions into the future after 2015? I can't find them on his site.

Wow, he predicted the Ukrainian war back in January 2013... unless he's written the page after the fact and put on a false date!

At our conferences around the world, we have discussed the Cycle of War and how this too has been incredibly accurate demonstrating that what may appear to be random, is really highly ordered chaos. This turns in 2014. To set the record straight, so far there appears to be no WORLD WAR that will begin. This appears to be separatism and civil unrest on the rise... Nevertheless, there is a risk of international war but this comes from RUSSIA!

But did he predict these dubs? I think not.

Like Putin who cannot let go of Empire Building, Western Politicians cannot let go of Marxism. They do not understand how to run without saying “vote for me and I will give you this even if we do not have the money!”

>>13
This is so true. The modern Western politics is built upon huge state spending (which mostly goes into welfare), which increases the public debt which will probably never be paid off. It's the fallacy of humanism: politicians have to be humanist in order to be elected, and the voters pretend the money shower will never end despite their quick aging.
China is wiser, instead of spending money on pensions and unemployment checks, it's been channelling its state budget into infrastructure, which is why it has among other things awesome roads, trains, airports etc which helps attract even more investment and lubricates the economy. So even though the Chinese old woman will have to look up to her children to provide for her, and to traditional medicine to cure her ills, the economy and the young people are benefitted. In the West, it's "let's pour our money into the old people and to hell with the consequences".

"let's pour our money into the old people, jobless hobos and immigrants, and to hell with the consequences".

Timecube also predicted this.

What's next, Mentifex made a breakthrough in strong AI after he stopped feigning mental retardation and TDavis is now the CTO of Apple? You gullible fucks.

>>17
When iPhone 7 sales flop due to low demand and growth, and Apple's stocks drop to $10/share, you better believe that they're going to bring in Terry as CTO to ensure Apple gets "right with God."

>>14

it's been channelling its state budget into infrastructure,

That counts under public spending, retard. I'll even go on a limb and guess that it's a very significant portion of US spending.

>>19
It's an investment into the economy that brings profit, rather than investment into useless plebs that only boosts inflation.

>>22
Nice dubs!

>>21
Thanks dubs-checker-kun.

what a story, mark

do you losers post on yahoo answers all day about how THERE'S GONNA BE WORLD WAR 3 and THE JEWS ARE CONTROLLING THE WORLD and CREATIONISTS R RLY DUMB instead of getting some pussy into you

honestly, you're even stupider and more stressed out than the people who watch mainstream news every single day

but you dismiss mainstream news as bullshit and you'd rather listen to retards like nikita sadkov, terry davis, and a bunch of retards who still run windows 95 and ms dos. I don't know what the fuck's wrong with you. I'm not even going to go into all that hentai, my little pony, and all those japanese cartoons

how many of you have actually touched a real vagina? (touching your screen while pornography's playing doesn't count)

the thing is, nikita had a bunch of bullshit predictions with dates, none of them turned out. yet you bought into it. you probably buy into all kinds of conspiracy theories. london olympics 2012?

this is just another board filled with losers and all their pathetic conspiracy theories that never turn out. nobody cared hwat you had to say back in nineteen ninety fuck and nobody cares now

I mean, you're worse than richard stallman, that fat fuck has his own website where he posts all his garbage daily (under political notes). at least he has his own website, you just scour the web for losers who actually care about what your submissive-suspicious self wants to write

https://media.licdn.com/mpr/mpr/shrinknp_400_400/p/2/005/094/25a/14ad2e7.jpg

weak, balding, and clinging whatever body fat your body can hold. that's just a portrait of where this lifestyle leads you

at least nikita seems to be (slowly) breaking away from that shit

>>25

hentai, my little pony, and all those japanese cartoons

Please don't lump all those together.

>>26
How is the topic of touching vaginas related to crisis forecasting? Are you 16?

nikita had a bunch of bullshit predictions with dates, none of them turned out.

I agree. Same goes for this thread
http://bbs.progrider.org/lounge/read/1440353660

yet you bought into it.

What? Nobody ever said Nikita was the one to bring us truth and revelations, where did you get that from? Who would take that crackpot seriously? He's good at Lisp but that's all.

Anyway, keep your rants in one continuous post next time.

These dubz are for Nikita.

>>29
He looks like a criminal.

>>15
Actually most of the money is put into killing sandniggers on the other side of the world.

september 13 is coming

>>29
Nikita Happykov.

>>36
I fucking loved Super Mario Bros! Can't belueve it's been 30 years already.

>>35
No it isn't, in fact killing sandniggers brings lots of money to the military and weapons companies who sell arms to warring sandniggers. It also helps drive modernization of the army - old munitions need to be used up periodically, you know.

No it isn't

The largest portion of the budget if for defense. You cannot refute this.

brings lots of money to the military

from us, the generous tax payers.

weapons companies who sell arms to warring sandniggers

They aren't sold. They are donated so the sandniggers will continue to blow each other apart in prolonged conflicts that lack resolution and prevent a sovereign nation from asserting ownership over its natural resources and trading them with American rivals.

old munitions need to be used up periodically, you know.

Those are already donated to Israel.

>>40
No, the largest portion of the budget is for offense, the defense portion should be higher but we're too busy sticking our dick into everyone else's shit.

>>40,41

You cannot refute this.

This is easily refutable. 48% is spent keeping niggers, old people, and poor people alive, and only 17% is spent on defense.

It's changed since the time I saw it during the iraq war. Those numbers are different from this link though, where did you get them?

>>43
The wiki for the 2014 budget. From your link (an estimation for 2015), healthcare is 27%, pensions are 25%, and welfare is 10%, so the nigger-geriatric-proletariat complex will be even larger than I thought. Will a mere $800,000,000 army be enough to protect us when the pensioners start turning their oxygen tanks into bombs because the check is late? I hope we never have to find out.

Consider this: A pack of wild Pensioners.
Savage, slavering Pensioners nearing your hard-earned home. Trampling your expensive lawn. Raping your well provided daughter.
And you can't do shit since they're on welfare. The Pensioner leader grabs your wife and fucks her with his health benefits.
The primal Pensioners finally dominate your household. They watch barbaric shows on TV and you are forced to be their source of income.
Such is the downfall of Working Man.

retards

>>44
$800M would be plenty. Just kick their walkers out from under them and break their hips. If the niggers rise up, just send them bullets, which the US already has billions and billions stock piled, and some colored bandanas and they will kill each other. The rest of the money can go to mollifying the poor whites by giving them country-western CDs, plastic testicles they put on their pickup trucks, and cheap beer. The $800B military that we actually have would probably be taking it to far. It's a terrible drain on the taxpayer money. I think that we should return to the old Roman Republic system where the general that raised the army got to lead it, and he would recover his money and pay troops by conquering the barbarians, who then gives it back to the state. Caesar was always broke and usually in debt even after winning tens of millions of denarius because he was open handed with his wealth and regularly bribed literally everyone in Rome. Imagine what a boon that would be to the world economy if we could escape this nightmarish Kafkaesque horrorscape of capitalism and return to the traditional values. Men weren't made to earn their living by sitting at a computer desk, shitting out Java every day, they were made to go out and brutalize foreigners, raping and enslaving their women and children.

kike can predict the futher if you give much money

You will give your money to the international jew
