Have you ever seen an emoulument fly into a skyscraper? How much does it cost to do a full forensic teardown of a plane's control systems, and everything attached to them?

Standard X-rays aren't as big a dose. Totaling up all the mammograms a woman would generally get and that should still be less than a single chest CT.

Pedantic note: Pandora was the woman who opened the box. Pandora was not in the box. The problems of the world were, along with hope. Maybe you're mixing the story with the phrase "the cat's out of the box" ?

Not very good. The writing is okay, but walking away isn't better than deluding yourself with justification. Yes I get it's all metaphor, but that doesn't make it better. If you actually read the thing, within the literal sto

An IQ of 300 is impossible, because that's 13.333... standard deviations above the norm's average. Can't norm that.

I don't see how that could provide an alternative to Novikov fixpoints. You can't control the initial conditions well enough, so the Novikov fixpoint you get is one where no observable time travel has ever occurred. I think you&#x

It's not proof. And that's not what worldlines are. It's a story trope that that is how time travel consistency works, where "observable details" are things that the character or audience could notice, instead of be

If you aren't joking, that will filter most humans.

6? That can't be right. I don't know how big a GCU is, so the scale could be up to 1 OOM off, but a full redirection of all simulation capacity should let it integrate out further than that.

You need some. Otherwise you would need to re-engineer for a different anti-knock. Tetraethyllead is unusable in modern cars.

An IQ of 125 isn't low by any standard.

That's too hard. Chew on raw carrots.

It didn't immunize Eliezer Yudkowsky, and he wrote Markov chain fictional characters. Everyone who looked up AI enough times knew about ELIZA.

That won't work. Look at planning done for city evacuation in the past.

Cities on the impact path could be asked for funding.

Why can't they get all that over with now and say what they think the actual chance is?

by Vecr 2y ago
If that's correct, now is the exact time you should consider relocation. If there's a rush, you will be in trouble.

Say hello to CelestAIa. I'm guessing it's a joke, or the use of AI will be limited.

"My boss wants to buy systems with the Intel i10-101010F Medium Core Platinum (with rowhammer & Sonic & Knuckles), can you buy this $20,000 box and test your program so I can write him a report?"

The electricity is switched off. If the system is fancy, maybe it's on a lower duty cycle. The panels just sit there, rotting, wasting their embodied energy.

He bought Twitter and all he got was congress, the senate, and the presidency. Trump's 2020 loss was a wakeup call for him.

It's highly optimistic that you didn't mean that. Technically, according to the guidelines, I'm supposed to believe you. Elon is overrated. If Elon disappeared, things would be very similar.

SHA-3 has more internal state, it really is plausibly better at handling very large data. If 'unlimited' is really less than a gigabyte, there's no problem. It's mostly the preimage series of attacks and length extension

For 'unlimited' input size it should be SHA-3-512. Maybe too slow, but Bcrypt is slower, right? Less things to go wrong too.

I assume these are US citizens. The US constitution isn't set up to protect intelligence agencies if they attempt that kind of thing on US soil.
