For once doesn't seem like a hit piece, the arguments are pretty solid and well documented. Very thorough job and if RMS was smart he would gracefully step down. The only argument I find here against it is the question of whether someo

The link provided doesn't mention that. They did in another post ask for people to "Don't necessarily upvote it -- just "vouch" for it if you think it's on-topic." By the way the report is pretty solid. h

I find the fact that media keeps talking about cancer as one single disease unhelpful at best. Look at what the title of the research article is: "Antioxidants stimulate BACH1-dependent tumor angiogenesis" The researchers conclusi

Quoting the Washington Post: > Portions of the operation have been disclosed earlier, including in a 1996 paper in Studies in Intelligence, a CIA journal.

US also has a precedent (from the other thread): > We actually did do this 40 years ago. Reagan covertly blew up a Soviet gas pipeline supplying Europe in 1982, which was publicized in 2004 when the former Secretary of the Air Force boas

But the main motivation for the Russians would be giving them a pretext to attack other infrastructure.

by joshuajill 4y ago
Fair call Russia might have done it for those and other reasons. However 1) Was there any gas flowing at all? Sure anything can cause speculation. 2) This also makes it a convenient timing for the western allies to do it, including Norway.

Research on psychotherapeutic use of hallucinogens is done on this premise. At this point I believe it would be unethical to perform such a study. It would risk exposing subjects to psychological harm. Edit: on the premise that the environm

You sound like someone who is looking for deeper meaning in life. Not knowing what inspires you or motivates you, maybe you'd be better exploring your sense of purpose, what rewards you in the long run, what gives meaning to your life.

There is the Integrated Information Theory that attempts to solve the question of how to measure consciousness. But it's far from applicable at this point, even if promising. LaMDA was trained not only to learn how to dialog, but to se
