Yes, 100% this. But it won’t get funded. Everything will get eaten up by the impressive LLM dead end.

Neo-Nazi recruitment has been running free on Twitter since Musk takeover, and a lot of technology communication also happens there. I wouldn’t expect tech folks to be more susceptible by nature, they just hang out in these spaces and are e

I would say about 20% of people are like that. Total disregard for common good, maximal selfishness.

But with how compounding works, isn't this outcome inevitable in capitalism? If the strong government prevents it then the first step for the rich is to weaken or co-opt the government, and exactly this has been happening.

I wonder, will the rich start hiring elaborate casts of servants including butlers, footmen, lady's maids, and so on, since they'll be the only ones with the income?

The reason is resentment rooted in an inferiority complex. Russia's state ideology is that they're being oppressed by "the West", and they really believe it up to the highest levels of government. They're quite conv

The size. Those other influencers don’t matter apparently.

I wish we had more plurality. Not just convergence on one ultra influencer for books, but an ecosystem, with offerings tailored to audiences.

I mean people outside their immediate surroundings. People rarely seek out connection across cultures. We prefer like minded people.

But almost everyone speaks English as a second language, and most native English speakers don’t care enough to communicate with everyone.

Optimistic. They've got sideloading done, browser and search choice done, ad transparency done, more choice for payments done, many dark patterns banned. The gears are turning slowly, but they're doing really useful work.

You're saying it would be convenient for you to know the future. It would also be convenient for me. That said, if you haven't done very similar work in the past, it's very unlikely you'll know exactly how much time it w

Don’t just read one person’s worldview, see what Aristotle, Kant, Rawls, Bentham, Nietzsche had to say about morality.

I think it’s topology (concave) + widespread poor heating methods in the agglomeration + a very bad day + inefficient combustion engines. I’d maybe include accurate measurements. The government isn’t trying to hide that and doesn’t have the

I think we should send all diplomas to OpenAI and end higher education. Less educated people are easier to steer via TikTok feeds anyway.

Please, you don’t need to counter-narrative everything. Maybe talk about what the professor did here and why students didn’t trust the output in an exam context in this particular subject.

Do they at least teach you that EU isn’t a state or a nation? Or that NATO has never fought a war against Russia? They should get the facts straight, usually it’s the framing that’s nefarious.

You're the one not raising questions about this nonsensical maxim. It seems neat to you so you accept it as truth uncritically.

Thinking in memes isn’t going to lead us to a better world. Least we can do is downvote it.

I agree with this, and I think we're partly conditioned to think this way. We (think we) can change ourselves, but we (believe we) can't change the world. I think it's OK to think bigger. To make friends, people need a place
