And fear mongering at it's finest! Let's see, give a crazy stat that ruffles feathers, 25 to 30 dogs killed daily. But wait! Let's dig into the source of said numbers! It's right there after all. >No one keeps records

Absolutely, and that has always been the case, even in vocations. There was a time where being a tv or vacuum repairman was a pretty good, middle class-ish job. Then the times came where that's not really the case. Picking a career pat

Out of every post here so far, this is by far the best. It also aged like fine wine. Probably more poignant now than ever. I totally see this as a good occasional slap in the face every few months to re-analysis yourself.

I watched a thing about how Koko the guerrilla didnt really understand sign language. They showed extended, unedited clips of koko fumbling and just brute forcing a whole series of signs until she got a treat. A lot of her "understandi

>If you want to be treated as a citizen — live here and pay your taxes. If you don't, the door's that way. Lol, that's considered "conservative right" ideology in the USA.

Sorry but a lot of the complaints from the article and what you linked are... well weird. Look, I'm no grand ninja guru wizard programmer, but after a decade of programming on and off as a job... wtf are you all smoking? Theres nothing

No one is obligated to list every facet to anything just to tickle your "I'm included in what some random person is saying". The commenter is speaking out of their own experience. It's not about you. Actually add somet

The rest of the world is also welcome to pay the $10+ billion in humanitarian aid the US pays for. Along with the $2 billion portion of the UN budget. Along with the $3 billion to NATO. When 5k US troops were being pulled from Germany, that

As a millenial... Wow... I mean, this article boils down to, "Why is there violence? There shouldn't be violence." No shit... wanting violence to not exist doesn't mean it disappears. The only point I can agree to is the

I smoke cigars on occasion. They dont make you sick quickly. Sure, if you do 3, 1hour burn cigars back to back, you'll feel like complete shit. But one cigar and a majority of people are done for a day or two.

I think you missed the point of that commenter's rant, understandably though. A majority of people (these days) see the benefit for a wide spectrum of folks this modern space race is producing. What no one gives a shit about is the ego

I'm perfectly okay with AI and algorithms being used as red flaggers to help a human find out what needs immediate attention or even potential concerns. I'm 100% against algorithms and AI making the actual decisions.

I'm being cheeky, but at the same time, it's a serious issue. AI used in these fashions are just going to be bureaucracy on steroids, however, as you mention, less chances for appeals. And on an extremely serious note, I am utterl

Humanity is the sickness. Only through software and bureaucracy can humans cure their ailment and achieve the proper goals. It's 2021, get with the times.

Yes, we should basis reality on a fictional story... totally makes sense. If we're going to go that route, I say we start throwing politicians in volcanos as the starting point. It worked against Sauron.

That's one ingredient, sure. But speaking as a millennial, there was plenty of propaganda in American schools that made it seem like if you weren't working in an office, you failed at life. Now we have people who worked in offices
