"Make Apple profitable at all costs, even if it means aligning oneself with the fascist party" is a very political stance

Ridiculous. You can't repeatedly bribe the president and claim to not be political.

I don't think it even benefits Israel. At least not the people of Israel. Maybe it helps keep Netanyahu in power. But they're just creating more extremism and hatred of Israel in Iran and utterly failing at even creating regime ch

See the sibling reply for sources. A big part of it is that TGA is a worldwide thing.

Didn't The Game Awards receive more viewers than the Super Bowl? It used to be referred to as, like, "the Oscars for video games", but now it's immensely more popular than the Oscars.

For the core of his base certainly, but he can't win with just them, it's not enough. He won because of the median voter that was mad at the incumbent party for inflation.

I expect a very bad showing for Republicans in the midterms. They will almost certainly lose the House, and it's actually becoming possible that they will lose the Senate (which seemed laughable to even consider a year ago).

Incredible how Trump ran on a "no wars" and "lower prices" platform. And that people actually believed it.

This is pedantic. AI has many definitions. There was "AI" powering enemies in 80s and 90s video games

The "serotonin hypothesis" is largely unfounded. We don't actually know why SSRIs are effective for some people. It's likely more to do with increased neuroplasticity than a shortage of serotonin in the brain. This is a

I remember considering applying for Anthropic about 1.5 years ago because they seemed like a somewhat more ethical AI company. Then I learned about their Palantir partnership and realized it was all just a clever marketing gimmick.

This is the AI we're using to kill people now, surely it won't make any mistakes or confidently target civilians on accident: https://youtube.com/shorts/WxbHtYzBnvo?si=xh4kda_DuNvHFx0L

I have type 1 diabetes and have a CGM and insulin pump on me at all times. The manufacturers say you shouldn't take them through the scanners, but me and every diabetic I know has never experienced any issues with the devices, so most

Once again, an article about diabetes that shows a complete lack of understanding of the difference between type 1 and 2.

Purely anecdotal, but I'm a senior engineer with about 15 years of experience and a decently impressive resume. In the past, I almost always get to at least the interviewing stage, and have frequently received multiple offers at the sa

They are attempting to pull other actors into the conflict to increase the chaos of the war, and to increase the cost to the US of fighting it. They can't necessarily win an all out war, but they can make it so costly to the US that th

In contrast, getting through Hyperion was hard for me (some of the character stories I LOVED and some felt like a slog), but I really loved Fall of Hyperion.

by Trasmatta 7mo ago
I disagree strongly. I'm not religious at all, and have a strong aversion to Christianity, and I loved those books.

by Trasmatta 7mo ago
I recommend everyone read Hyperion and The Fall of Hyperion. The messages about AI and human stagnation are highly relevant to our current world.

What is it with tech execs and not using capital letters? It's bizarre. Especially in a letter about layoffs.

Are you hinting at a nonduality view of consciousness, or am I missing your point?
116.
by Trasmatta 7mo ago
"How do I know that I am conscious" is a categorically different question than "how do I know that you are conscious"

I don't.

Yeah, a sci-fi analogy might be one where you keep getting cloned with all of your memories intact and then vaporized shortly after. Each instantiation of "you" feels a continuous existence, but it's an illusion. (Some might

That line also sounds exactly like the pseudo tech BS somebody will come up with to try to make something sound legitimate I wonder how the AI agent managed to bypass the HTML5 mainframe firewall
