TikTok is disruptive and has replaced other disruptive technologies. And I'm sure, that not a few computer nerds are busy programming the next time and life sink. It's a competition for how much man is willing to flush his existen

Are the atheistic western elites any better? WW3 seems to be kind of a possibility now. Pushing Russia into a corner was not a smart move. Especially for Germany.

Too much thinking is like a heavy dish, it makes you sluggish and sleepy. Remember that everything that moves quickly and elegantly through the world does so without too much thought.

I highly doubt it. OpenAI, Google and Meta are not the only ones who can implement these systems. The race for AGI is one for power and power is survival.

I'm sure that the undecidedness is not about the origin but about the geopolitical impact such an official statement would have.

>Citation very much needed. I'm sure that there are studies but let's be honest. This is just common sense. I'm sure that if you replace Japanese people with Berbers from North Africa, Japan will look very different.

Well, that the official declaration. But we all know that it is a lie. Even for very similar ethnicities like say Italian, French, German and Swiss you can easily tell the difference. National identity and culture is heavily influenced by

Well danger if done wrong is a good selling point. it suggests that the method must be powerful. I'm sure some gurus exploit this (manipulative technique) to be perceived as more serious or experienced. The problem is now, speaking abo

Well one possible reason why Americans report better health and energy levels after switching to a lowcarb, no seed oil, paleo or whatever diet is that seed products in the US are contaminated with various chemicals. Thus the statement of t

I'm probably a night owl as well since I'm always going to bed too late yet I find the idea of already having done a large part of the work by midday kind of alluring. Also the concept of the "magical morning" like doing

The problem is the relationship between what those people do and what they gain. Why should videos in which you throw eggs from a bridge wrapped in drinking straws give you millions each year? this is just obvious wrong allocation of resour
