No one should have to submit any published work to government review, even voluntary. This is a basic speech issue. Absolutely no one would be okay with authors being 'encouraged' to submit their works to a 'voluntary' r

nothing is dooming civilization. These takes are so dumb. Civilization exists because humans want to reproduce.

Why is unlabeled normal ingredients a problem? Especially when the objection is not medical but religious?

Well sure, so I think we need to figure out what we want. Why do we want a computer to take on the role of a person? Having something pretty intelligent to which I can delegate many tasks is already useful.

That's not what the church believes but okay whatever. At least I don't think a computer magically becomes a person.

As a Catholic in AI, this has been my take since the day I started in Industry. Techies have a weird way of thinking themselves world saviors and having poor binary decision making ability. AI will never be alive or have a soul. No machine

The goal posts keep changing. First it was, it's not intelligent if it can't come up with something new. Now it has to seek out self help literature

Doesn't really matter because internally your brain is speaking its own 'language' and you're just translating without conscious thought. Five languages is impressive no doubt but as a dual language speaker myself, thoug

The data seem to indicate just the opposite.

What the hell is a true AI? Can you please provide a concrete definition. If your argument is that the Chinese room is not intelligent, then you have greatly misunderstood the thought experiment imo.

I used to be a hardcore gentoo-er, but Nix is more sensible and has a more cohesive model.

Yeah that sucks balls but America's private capital markets are still robust.

That is basically the theme. You've figured out the actual grift. The crazy thing is how these same magazines will promote actual fake industries like crypto, while demonizing industries that produce actual results like AI. The goal se

The only person other than me that I've ever seen point this out. The reason PE exists in America is because of pension funds, including government pension funds. This deserves to be called out, because we cannot expect an entity relia

There's lots of things like this where if you ask a human, the answer will change depending on what's convention in their subculture.

Is this not true of human intelligence as well? Many smart people I know hold beliefs that have no obvious truth value.

Yup! In fact he grew up in the neighborhood so he has parents and friends nearby.

I have four kids, my neighbor has one, and I see this dynamic play out in real time. My neighbors are neurotic with their kid. Poor kid is hovered over. My kids play by themselves, walk to their grandmother's house (a block away), go t

Wasn't planning on being a landlord and no... I think my tax treatment should count income in the traditional way.

It's not like chemical spills didn't happen before these changes though. Let's not sensationalize. Can you directly link the change in policy t this leak?

Im building more homes in a market lacking homes where no outside group wants to invest. If you're building more homes on your property, by all means. No one is though and people are being priced out.

My issue is singling out stocks for this. Try telling people they're laying taxes on their heloc and that this is now income so their 300k heloc cash out now puts them in the highest tax bracket! Good luck Of course people taking out e

Taxation would only worsen the bubble as people are left unable to pay. Again the tax rate sets a minimum return. These high returns encourage too much risk. Collateralizing other assets is the standard way in which capital grows. I don&#x2

Yes let's encourage more risky behavior! Absolutely braindead takes. This sort of proposal would establish a minimum 35 % return in any project. Thus halting investment entirely Let's put this in perspective. I'm currently go
