Take a look at the highly conspiratorial website https://www.opensecrets.org for an example of how i enquire by looking at sources and money flow helping me realise most politicians are bought by lobby groups working for the own

It's obvious this class of people love their status as neu-feudal lords above the law living as 18th century libertines behind closed doors. But i guess people here are either waiting for wealth to trickle down on them or believe the t

It's pretty incredible that the upper echelons have so thoroughly psyopped everyone below them that the public runs confused around in an endless maze of ideology, false pretexts and stirred up drama. This way only insiders recognise t

Doesn't it look like the complete opposite is going to happen though? Microsoft gobbles up all talent from OpenAI as they just gave everyone a position. So we went from "Faux NGO" to, "For profit", to "100% Clo

Yes that's the main problem with all of these concepts like internal family systems, loops, memory - that as long as the models remain static it's not like a brain that's constantly in an isomorphic metamorphosis with reality

So not being not being an absolute moralless predator megalomaniac is labeled as being a "kumbaya type" now? A tiny subset of psychos will be the downfall of humanity with tech getting ever more potent, and it's especially sa

AI's will capture viewtime so effectively that human creators channels will wither. Most popular youtube content is already garbage in my opinion but many small kids are already happy viewing bottom tier AI gibberish for hours. And if

Lumafields CT scanning techniques are amazing, and i'm quite surprised at just how complex and ultra precise the circuitry and processing power is inside a tiny USB cable. It's an engineering marvel to me as a layman. Modern chips

Being a huge history nerd war is almost always about profiteering, nothing has changed but propaganda. The US is one big imperial war machine that protects its ownership class assets with their foreign policy, like any other superpower woul

Yes! I also encountered this in Rhino 10+ years ago and instantly implemented in multiple online projects with great success. What's crazy is that i'm pretty most times wasted on a computer is from "where is this setting, how

I would like to know this as well. A tree overview of all nested functions and objects with a search function that quickly jumps to that place, and maybe even let you call that function with data from state?

A tangent but reminds me of the fact that even though we have millions of photographers with amazing cameras, most news and culture sites display images in low quality. So most great photos will also never been seen. I remember Boston Globe

Most problems today stem from scale? A big org of with 100% non technical people and 100% technical people where the sweet spot was the small game studio from 25 years ago, nerds, but social, tightly knit, experts but generalists because of

Maybe i'm cynical but my impression is that most productless companies with lots of storytelling around some phd's are almost always about scamming investors / grant money / public funds. If anyone have great non sensati

Share private thoughts between you and your friends in the future and get rounded up in no time! I know we're already close with NSA, Five Eyes and whatnot but could the plutocracy be a little less blatant? I wonder if at some point su

Great resource! I've defaulted to just use vanilla js and petite-vue, it's 15 kilobytes and gives a good base. The problem is the build requirements you run into quickly if you want to use plugins these days with vanilla js. Elega

Not blaming the engineers! The problem is structural or from managers and higher ups. This is why most non technical business school types can fuck right off, i’ve rarely seen them make anything better. Managers with either dev or design ex

I get that to an extent, but it would literally take at max a day for a person to run thousands of meshes through an acceptable SimpifyGeometry function or sorting all models by vertice size and removing the most idiotic ones, or remove the

The problem is that i can do this but not kids. I've become better at it and is always reminded of the quiet summers when i was a child, the beautiful boredom and fantasy of "some part of my life that happened a long time ago&quot

The most frightening thing about these new consumption patterns is that you miss large but subtle aspects of life, the depth, magic and fantasy that bubbles up as weird emergence in the quiet moments before you sleep, when you wake up, expl
