No. We know the laws of this universe (not perfectly yet of course). However, as far as we know, it seems that those laws don't allow it to be created from nothing. A top-level universe must have different laws. It must be something co

Yes, I forgot to add that there must a type of universe which can start from nothing, or exists always. Otherwise this argument doesn't make sense.

We can tell by looking at the beginning. It looks like this universe started from nothing, but this is not possible, unless it's a simulation. Therefore, this universe can't be a 'top-level' universe. However, it's

It's a combination of eye tracking and hand gestures. You use eyes as the primary pointing device on Vision Pro. Hands are used for clicking, scrolling etc.

I see a minor complaint about eye tracking, but people conveniently forget about the status quo. The status quo is holding large objects which are strapped on your hands and using point-and-shoot to click on items. You literally have to sho

That isn't true. 5 major exctinction events are related to giant volcanic eruptions. 7 are due to sea-level falls, and one is due to an asteroid impact. In all cases there might be a correlation to ocean anoxidation, but I doubt it as

That's true, but I think it's quite debatable what would actually happen. Most species wouldn't need to adapt, but just migrate. There are a lot of species which already thrive in warm / tropical climates, and those spec

There won't be an extinction event. We already know that warm periods in Earth's history are the most friendly for all kinds of life. And we know that cold periods kill species and reduce biodiversity. In the most catastrophic cas

They're quite similar projects from software / AI standpoint. Anyone who is hired for autonomous cars can be assigned on a robot team. An autonomous car is also kind of a robot. Aside from this, I just think that a humanoid robot

I still refuse to believe that they're actually working on a car. I think they're making a humanoid robot. It makes some sense that the car project is a cover for it. 2028 sounds about right, although a bit late. I've been sa

Far left - far right is such a misnomer. It presents politics as a spectrum between these two extreme values. It's as if all politics should be mapped on this scale. However, historically communism and fascism were both collectivist an

My pet theory is that our whole simulated world is actually a huge captcha. Captchas keep evolving until you have to live an entire lifetime as a human to prove that you're a human. When you die you wake up and get access to a website.

Innovation is simply a result of trying to imitate, but adding errors. That's how humans do it. Add in some darwinism so that the best 'innovations' survive. Made a mistake in making food? Oh, that's a new recipe. Can&#x

The important detail which most people seem to miss is that Tesla's workers aren't behind this. They don't want to unionize, because there's no reason to. The IF Metall union is striking because they just want to get the

It's an interesting question. I guess they are mostly sales or support people, which need to be scaled linearly to a number of customers, labels, artists, etc. I guess people misinterpreted the parent's statement. Spotify had 9,00

It would be a major breakthrough if the model wasn't trained on math at all. Which I suspect is the case here, because otherwise it doesn't make sense.
