kindergarden logic is hoping for immense suffering, genocide, and slavery, to “teach a lesson”. kindergarden logic is thinking the us sliding into full blown fascism doesnt make the geopolitical landscape of the world far more oppressive. i recommend you think for half a second before openly advocating for genocide.

No i think their point is exactly right. for example, Reagan wouldnt be disappeared tomorrow, it’s exactly the people who are against the imperialism!

i just have to wonder what kind of llm bubbles you’re seeing for this to be “the most sane” prediction. it’s amongst the most patently absurd hype claims out there.

and water to cook it and drink, and power to heat it?

72 hours of essential supplies. Do you have 72 hours of:

• food (cooked, or cookable? see points 2 and 3)
• stored water (taps out?)
• stored power generation (powers out?)
• medicines and first aid (emergency services outages? communications outages?)
• heat in the coldest months? (see point 3) etc.

what’s this?

many for profit companies have done this before, however:

Think about the incentive structure here, it incentivises not learning about bugs in the software. it incentivises as this always does, that those with money to swing around get additional explicit systemic power to dictate the features and bugs that get fixed. this is a bounty system with extra steps and not learning about bugs. and to boot, if a company really wants to pay, they can probably pay a dev of their own to work on many of these issues. it doesnt seem like this really solves any issues and just imposes a pay-to-speak system. ick.

to add, the point of Rojavas and “centralized” military forces - this is where syndicalists tend to find their strongest justifications, in having built in systems of military federation that are demonstrably effective without making it super incentivized to do power centralization.

“we have not seen anarchism at a [large scale]” this is extremely debatable, historcally speaking large communities have existed in pseudo anarchistic systsms off and on across the world. The general counter is to claim that hierarchal governance, especially the state, are variously metastable governance systems which outcompete anarchistic communities. But this is only historically supported inasmuch as they did “win out”, but that is not actually evidence that it’s the only metastable form of large scale governance.

whether you believe the us fucked around or not, genocide is not schaudenfreude.

It’s not a strict rule, sex science is a thing that can be done with ethical review same as other medical research. the commenter im not sure is giving an accurate picture of this topic.

nobody else escapes responsibility because there’s a system level explanation for their behavior, why should the richest and most powerful?

they’ll find a use case any day now for realsies.

optimism and hope are necessary in all scenarios, i dont know who rr is beyond this article but these are mostly fair things to be optimistic about. by optimism i do mean things that imply it’s not necessarily the worst case scenario, that this is perhaps a 2 and change regime and not a 70+ year regime, and that some responses to the horrors are working. Even more someof these things imply a civil war is not as likely as it might be, which is a massive win unless you are a bloodthirsty fool. Could you be more specific with your problems here?

No it didn’t. It was not a conventional peer review process, it was an aesthetic review of if it looked adequate, not if the content was, and only barely passed… at an ai conference workshop… by people who knew it was an ai produced paper. this is shameful work.

some damage yes but this is big for limiting further firings.

the game is broadly allegorical to mental health struggles but especially with transitioning.

It certainly was, the return on the crypto was pretty negligible. you certainly lost money here in the cost of the rig compared to a space heater heating at the same power, and certainly compared to a heat pump.

Machine learning has been degrading search for longer than llm have been widespread, yes, as has seo optimization as i described. llm have made the problem far, far worse, in every way.

classic search is mostly wrong because of ai spam, and secondarily because of seo that google encouraged that made the services worse across the board, ftr. so “ai fail to solve a problem ai made” is another version of this headline.
