There's an axiom in discussions here where Twitter needs saving. Why? In what way is it non successful? In what way is it broken? I mean most Twitter discussions I ever saw are disgusting or plain dumb mascarading as profound. I don&#x

I think you got it backwards. The media products are about "The message" because it sells. Even the fact that right wing pundits go batshit crazy about it in Twitter is a win. When it stops selling, it'll die down. These US m

You know, if ppl would just using electricity to perform their scams/utopian dreaming while exacerbating a world wide calamity the states will not need to decide for them... We get more regulation mainly because of bad actors giving a

Well, as I said, I have no skin in the game. I'm only a spectator, I have no incentives to find a nonreason to dismiss her. Still I do think her style is disrespectful although entertaining, and can imagine that if her criticism was ag

As someone who has no skin in the game at all, I find her way of presenting criticism very contrarian argumentative and snarky. She might be completely right, but I can definitely understand the reluctance to hear her out on merit of style.

"testube babies" have parents. These will have owners. I think it's a valid fear that once someone is able to create living things out of nothing, they'll treat them as products and tools We already do it with animals..

I sympathize with your frustration. I do wonder though... a lot of the ability for these companies to even exist at this scale is because they use a small amount of ppl in the loop. So was it worth it to let these behemoths prosper so we ca

You should consider modern democracy as a response to the horrors of the 20th century fascistic and autocratic governments. Especially the case of Nazism in Germany that rose inside of democracy. In the aftermath of WW2 the concept of human

It's an episodic tv show with full season story arc. I think there's still some time before you can really judge the narrative structure in this case. As far as aristotelian narrative "rules" go the first episode seem to

Oh comeon, Ghostbusters 2016 was genuinely bad. It had an incoherent plot that went nowhere. The first episode of ROP was OK, amazing production value, a laying out of foundation, some nice fight scene. Nothing especially bad nor especially

Game theoretic thinking brings "stable" but disastarous results. Perhaps now that humanity knows about game theory we should try and find ways to encompass humanism and other values into the pure rationalist model.

Dogmatic Religious writing like this is always so cringy. Without regulation, kids would still be working sweatshops instead of learning the necessary skills to become builders.... For example. The are good regulations and bad regulations.

Carter made peace between Israel and Egypt. Hardly a term without significance. Carter went against the real powers in the US and that's why he is being written off history.

Granted that github sole reason for not hosting because is government overreach (first part) then in a world where github would allow publishing, then it is within Prof. Green rights to publish it. Is how I read it.

For me it's useful to rid my mind from nagging thoughts. I might be working on something while suddenly thinking about something else to be done. If I'm not writing it, I'll lose focus. Writing it in a Todo list calms my mind

The attitude that if the government is using the data collected by tech companies to bypass constitutional limitation, then it's a problem with government and not big tech, is rather reductionist. This is a tangled system and you canno

I apologize if it came out as if I don't agree. I asked out of ignorance I truly find FRP interesting and wonder when is it the right tool. It'll be very interesting to see this a sort of concrete comparison.

Of course it will, but it's something happening now by slow AI. We don't need any research on some hypothetical. We don't need to frame this as a technological problem, it's clearly a social one, of which we suffer the c

This is not a meaningful discussion. There's an agression going on right now perpetrated by Russia. Talking about UK agression is just not relevant. It's an odd distraction.
