I think it will just emphasise different skills and empower creative fields which use art but are not art per se. If you're a movie director, you can storyboard your ideas easily, and even get some animation clips. If you're an ar

Recording devices destroyed most of the musician's jobs. Vast majority of musicians who were employed before advent of recordings didn't have their own material and were not good enough to make good recordings anyway. Same with ar

If information is publicly available to be read by humans, I fail to see any reason why it wouldn't be also available to be read by robots. Update: ML doesn't copy information. It can merely memorise some small portions of it.

Libertarianism puts huge emphasis on voluntarily charity and cooperation, as opposed to theft excused by good intentions. So, if you're a libertarian, I would expect (but not force) you to do more charity work and donations. This is tr

And the promise of communism is to make everyone equally miserable. I was born in USSR and still remember 5-hour queues for rotting cabbage, thanks.

Economic growth is another way of saying "improving people's lives". An economic system which always needs to improve people's lives is a good thing, actually. When you compare modern first world to 60 years ago, people&

A two-bedroom in a modern high-rise will cost you about $300 a month in Nha Trang, Vietnam. Quite a developed city, and, according to a few friends of mine, very pleasant to live in.

Having read the linked posts, there's clearly a toxic atmosphere which probably drives a lot people off. I'd much rather be a subject of an angry Linus rant than a target of political play like this.
