If you create it out of atmospheric carbon then it's carbon-neutral. I don't know if that's what they're proposing, though.

It's also just a stupid idea. You "can't criticize" many groups of people who hold no real power. The quotation was devised solely to apply to criticizing "the Jews" (and by extension implying they "rule o

They're credited with it but that quotation is actually from neo-Nazi Kevin Alfred Strom and has been repeatedly laundered through social media to seem like respectable intellectual rigor, instead of an attempt to legitimize the kinds

Yes, I believe so, although millions of qubits are still many orders of magnitude away from the largest quantum computers currently in existence. If Moore's Law applies to quantum computers (big if) then it will take about 50 years for

People are going to generate black-box code, launch it as an MVP, and then hire engineers to iron out bugs or even do whole rewrites if the product gets traction. It's all going to just fit back into the same standard model.

Ezra Levant is a polemicist who frequently misstates or fabricates evidence. You shouldn't trust him. He's essentially Canada's Tucker Carlson. He's trying to be provocative, not do journalism.

And race. If employers can't actually check your record, they'll make assumptions about it, and some of those are pretty unsavory.

I recall the police responding to the protests in Portland and working hard to shut them down as a result. The Ottawa police have declined to take action.

Respectfully, making sweeping assertions about someone without having read what they wrote and expecting agreement is kind of a privileged take.

How would you verify a company's emissions? With your monitoring satellite? Otherwise, it's their word against your inability to verify anything.

I think it is the question, because if there is an AI that can experience qualia, and my toy AI doesn't, then there's some inflection point between the two that can experience qualia. You can set up goalposts just slightly past an

Yep! Just buy from a non-emitting company. They wouldn't lie to you and claim to be non-emitting, because that would be mean.

Yeah, this is the real question. I'm sure I could program an AI agent to respond to (dis-)incentives in a fuzzy way. Is it consciously experiencing pain and pleasure at that point? The answer would be "no" unless we could pro

In a well-functioning market, the price of goods should eventually shrink to their cost of production. If they do not, that's a monopoly.

Maybe it's a low-key attempt to disrupt the use of Google Drive as a command and control source for botnets? Seems very easy to work around.

This is really cool! One thing though - case sensitivity? I think that should go away; having to get capitalization right slows down typing a lot. I look forward to an integration with dndbeyond!
