I think we should have the right to prevent Facebook-like companies from aggregating our friends' data about ourselves, that's the only problem I have with Glass. Ideally we'd be able to force a company to delete any recognis

1) Agreed. I observe other people like him, so in this case it's probably all me. 2) I've tried to read some of the major sequences, but end up quitting partway through. Each essay seems so long for what it's trying to impart

I have a hard time reading Yudkowsky. I'm not as in love with his writing as he is. I think he makes good points. But if you're starting from the position of evidence-based beliefs and Bayesian reasoning, the knowledge gained by s

What is the intended effect of that video? A proxy for human interaction?

> For example, maybe they admit it, plus there is authenticated video + eyewitness + whatever you like evidence that they did it. Then that would be good enough to convince a jury the accused is guilty. You can't allow the defence t

How can you claim we objectively know that someone is guilty or even that a crime was committed at all? Even the lawyer hearing the confession cannot possibly assert beyond a reasonable doubt that it is true with no other evidence. So what&

Well let's first assume that the client not only admitted that he did it but also really did it. The system is best served by not being allowed to randomly put whomever in jail for whatever [1]. So we would require the prosecution pres

It's not difficult to refrain. Before you post ask yourself if it adds anything meaningful to the conversation. Quoting television to make a joke doesn't really add anything substantial unless it's related to the topic and sa

Since you tried to cancel and it was difficult to find how, can't you issue a chargeback at that point?

I don't know why you've been downvoted. What you wrote is not what I'd like to hear as an adult, but based on what I've read it's probably true.

I misunderstood you, sorry. I disagree that the problem is the government exactly. The problem tends to be administration is allowed to capture a great deal of government spending. That's the reason the free market does better in cert

Having education available to everyone is a net gain for society, like having public roads. Also, the "lazy poors" "stealing" your money to educate their children have snatched up the slightest fraction of what the wealt

I might have to look into this visual studio plugin, thanks.

JIT? ...as soon as I get over my perfectionism long enough to finish the parser :) I'd enjoy being on a project like that. Can I send you an email?

The XVim plugin? That's hardly a complete implementation.

Using Xcode is a shit experience, it crashes numerous times each day, creates zombie processes when testing in the simulator, and has something like 1000 tiny problems that are irritating. LLDB is powerful, but not a proper REPL. > using

I've actually seen most of those, I guess I'm more advanced than I thought :)

My opinions: 1. You can't trust them to not save the images and use or accidentally leak the images later, some scanners in courthouses were found to be saving images. 2. It's not reasonable to require knowledge of everything on

But they aren't going to remove them because wealthy people with connections have a vested interest in selling Rapiscanners to airports.

This is great, it's taken me months to learn all the things you just listed. Do you know of anywhere where this type of thing is discussed?

That's so cynical that it looks sarcastic. Isn't it far more likely to get a divorce if you are refusing to discuss problems with her? Holy hell. If this is what your relationships are like, you might want to look for different pa

Also survivorship bias; we wouldn't be hearing anything about Tesla if it had failed normally.

I'm already angry about that, thanks :)

You lost all credibility with me by claiming you would assault someone over an argument.

Or is it because they have human rights and aim to rehabilitate instead of punish.
