By this logic the United States should win in Iran based on its nuclear capability alone. Imo I just felt your reply was annoying. I enjoy spirited back and forth here but saying "I didn't see any troops here directions please&quo

Are you joking? That's like saying American troops aren't based in the United States because they (typically) don't roam the streets of major American cities. This isn't a matter of an opinion or your cute reply, it'

Of course they didn't even prevent those massacres. They watched it happen. As I recall the administration seemed unconvinced of this as a pretext for war, and by the time the decapitation started the regime already had regained total

Which will also not work. America knew how to do this once. Berlin is still in a sense occupied by American troops in that we still have bases there, and through NATO subsidize their defense and way of life. You simply can't kill your

Is it vulnerable to the same sort of asymmetric attack, yes or no? Can the system run if those above ground areas are destroyed? Of course hypothetically they can be defended. Just like hypothetically a few drones should not be able to shut

Imagine thinking this was a good idea when you cut your ribbon after all that money and effort and then a ~$500 drone flies over and with one explosion has it leaking. Do you think people are dumb? Obviously beneficial and easy actions that

They were still used heavily... you think aircraft carriers are only useful if you can get right next to your target? A huge part of American doctrine is to kill the enemy before you are ever in their view. This is also just basically intui

What call center have you reached where the agent had any decision power? What are you talking about? Why would anyone need to make a call in such a LLM intermediated scenario? Your llm should talk to their llm. You really yearn for call ce

Some people say, "Give the customers what they want." But that's not my approach. Our job is to figure out what they're going to want before they do. I think Henry Ford once said, "If I'd asked customers what t

Was it not just a few weeks ago the government was telling Anthropic to take the guardrails off of the "super duper scary" models? Now they want them back on? AI for me and not for thee? Or just another opportunity for a petulant

What do "corporate interests" even mean in a world with UBI and automated production? Your fight against the data centers is misguided. All so they can be built somewhere else so what you have a few extra years of getting paid to

UBI is really one of the few positive end states. You can't put the genie back in the bottle. People against UBI really need to get over themselves unless you are part of the mega capital class its simply not in your interest to oppose

Doubtful you would still feel that way if it became the legally mandated norm. The reason ghosting is offensive is it feels so disrespectful and impersonal. How is some bland automated message triggered by a cron job any better? The automat

I see. You certainly have a flair for the dramatic. Not sure why you think market manipulation surrounding the attempted decapitation of a sovereign state shows less "but the intent is much stronger than that" than the dealings wi

Reminder that the American federal government classifies psilocybin as a Schedule I drug "no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse". Along with marijuana. And heroin. Who else but the DEA thinks those three
