Artificial strength does almost nothing to progress my understanding of what the strength level is, supernatural strength gives me a sense that whatever was made is very, very, very strong.

I think supernatural is describing strength, not the pattern itself. A water lily that has a similar lattice structure does not have supernatural strength. Supernatural is imaginary in the way many concepts of language are imaginary, they s

If the outcome is stronger than what would be found in nature, I would find this to be "supernatural". Of course the term could get watered down as anything manipulated and altered by human or machine could be deemed supernatural

I think all of this AI generated content still has a ways to go until it can be stand alone content, but when it is being used as a supplement to human creation, it can be fairly useful to either generate a starting point, or to fill in the

It’s more about the exchange rate, 150 yen to a dollar is verryyy good for the dollar.

Elitism is literally a form of gatekeeping…

Same! Just got back and I really miss the cheap everything , and relatively high quality as well. Picked up some Uniqlo things that would have been 2x the price in the US.

Of course, a strong foundation for rudimentary skills is a must, unfortunately not everyone is interested in building that and want to skip to the insert crazy topic of the month. My view is that technology has outpaced the ability of tea

Sure, this is a good step in allowing student to explore other teachings and points of view and learning to think for themselves. That is not how most of the education system is built though, it is built to spoon feed a curriculum, no quest

But one teacher's history is not another teacher's history, and the same for philosophy, and science in some parts of the country/world. Much of the private school system is run by money, and that money comes from people and

The OP is categorically wrong about some of their assessments: "with more and more wealth going to a smaller and smaller segment of the population while the impoverished fraction grows on the daily" Poverty around the world is bei

You are not my friend, so let's not pretend. My response had nothing about whataboutism, and I am skeptical that you even know what that means based on your reply. I am directly saying that you are speaking from a high moral chair, whi

It is sad, I work in it as well, I ask myself "wtf am I doing" every single day. But the security of having and providing a warm/safe home for my family, being able to have fun experiences, etc...is too much to give up. I can

Agreed here, it feels like everything is pointing toward a machine augmented future, and AI has proven its usefulness in a wide range of applications. Ultimately the direction that it goes is not up to any one person, but us as a species. D

Would not be surprised if this is AI generated garbage...

Would you agree that whatever you are currently working on, either at Nodewood or evisort, is contributing to this superficial betterment of the world? Not to be dense but you are talking about empathy for people who are at the bottom of th

At almost any other point of time you could have made a similar list with the relevant issues of the time. The news cycle today is so much more accessible, and is skewed towards pessimism, so your view of the world will also skew that way d

That’s definitely not true. Computer technologies of the past most definitely displaced people from certain job markets. Any innovation does this, but there is usually an understanding of what the upper bound is. Maybe with AI there is less

I have a lot of these moments nowadays where I try to figure out if I am becoming the old fart, or if my skepticism is actually legitimate. It’s a difficult exercise, often futile, but it’s a good first step. It always felt like my parents

I’m perfectly happy taking a free walk in the woods, not being after more money. But apparently you don’t understand economics.

This feels like an emotional take. There are lots of people in the USA who are great craftspeople…but our economy has moved more towards computer technology specialization, because that is where a lot of the money. I’m sorry, but making wid

Yeah this question is a good one to chew on. I think ultimately humans are pretty good followers, and in my relatively short life time, I have not seen much in the way of good leadership at the global level. So we just end up following inco

Not until our infatuation with constant growth is confronted. Currently all major economies focus on growth(GPD), and any sign of slowdown is essentially a doomsday scenario. We have gotten massive efficiency gains in almost all labor inten

Currently reading 'A City On Mars', which takes a deeper dive into the effects of space on our bodies, as well as other caveats of settling beyond Earth(birth, disease, political systems, etc...). It is not comprehensive and that

Choosing which tasks you delegate to others is very dependent on how much trust you have in those around you, and also how much room for error there is in the task. If it is something critical, or something that relates strongly to your vi

Tax evasion is most definitely illegal. Tax avoidance is probably what you mean. While the two sound similar, they are very different.

I am saying when you walk up to a person, know nothing about them, what actions do or do not make them normal in general ...not in a very very specific parameter? If that person says "I don't really talk to my family"...does
