Not that, but the first time paying attention to these details, as previously, I saw no need to do so based on what I've read.

Gemini has been doing that for a while, which leads to mind-boggingly stupid results. If you ask it to explain some song lyrics to you - which you've pasted verbatim -, it starts talking about the bigger picture and attempts to gasligh

Well, to be fair, the whole "enough growth" thought happened to spring into existence at the exact moment where we (the west) have comfortable living standards. Something other developing nations would need growth for to achieve.

I'm not sure if I'd agree with that, because that sounds like what normal humans do. Systems and politics are not that. Not at all. They're cold, calculating and fundamentally sociopathic. A more fitting analogy I think would

From my understanding, the West never truly committed to that goal. It just said so as a PR thing, so that the much more affected countries quiet down, because "hey hey we said 1.5°". "Oops, sorry, we tried". The West kn

Aah, okay, I see. No, I wasn't referring to divorce, because divorce is actually a pretty healthy failure mode (or can be, at least). The worse failure modes are the ones where people do not disengage for whatever reason and stay in th

Meta: The blinking cursor of the "logo" of the blog being sticky in the top left corner makes it impossible for me to read the text. It constantly fires interrupts at me. Depending on what your goals as the author are, you may or

Tbf, that's a very "modern"-ish way of viewing the idea of "committing". And there are good reasons for that, of course, but with that thinking, you're always going to be not fully there, which might be harmful

They're being used as a crutch to fast-track achieve the illusion of a goal. That is textbook abuse, because you're deluding yourself into believing that you're achieving something, when in reality, the only thing you do achi

This comment was dead on arrival, but I've vouched for it, because I believe it's interesting. I do not believe the conspiracy part, but I do also believe that this decoupling will happen eventually. It seems like the logical conc

The essay there weaponizes sarcasm + the emotional experience of that reality to hit the reader over the head with, in an attempt to break their script and force them to a change in perspective. This - evidently - worked and works, but ther

I feel like this confrontational approach to the problem has achieved basically all it can achieve over the last 55 years. We're heavy in the diminishing returns here - if it hasn't even inverted already. New tools and approaches

It is true that the text comes with disclaimers, but I read them more like the result of a 25 year career in corporate, rather than a genuinely balanced view on the matter.

That was weirdly and unexpectedly vulnerable, which is nice I suppose. Would've been even nicer without glorifying substance abuse, but, well.

I mean I'd be fine with that, if whoever that "we" is signs a waiver that takes full legal liability for those actions beforehand. In a state with capital punishment. With that legal stuff out of the way, go wild.

There is literally nothing stopping any human from observing tool calls to spot this. It's just that no one seems to care about this, so it doesn't happen. This problem only exists because humans do not care

You seem to care a lot about these issues, and probably have real face-to-face experience with the victims of that. Problem is though that this feeling type of empathy makes you not the best advocate for them - as you can see here, where (o
