It's not obvious because you're still making the excuses for baby-adults. No one is saying battery tech should stop being developed, nor should pain points be unaddressed.

I'm not against better batteries. I'm against people who choose to operate with such a small safety factor for something as serious as operating a giant rolling 2 ton piece of metal and volatile chemistry. Just like I'm aga

Part of the problem with these degens is their attitude that downvotes mean they are over the target. This dude is just ignorant with, near as i can tell, asmongold on your brain and breath. His mistakes aren’t worth refuting, but I’ll giv

Fwiw, i have the opposite experience of napping. Napping adds to mental fog for me especially for the hour immediately after napping. Its not until several hours later that i actually experience any loss of mental fog or increase in clarit

If true, that pizzachit Elon deserves criminal liability of some kind. That sort of reckless behavior should be punished severely.

So are you saying all of the people who watch these channels (in your analogy they "buy get rich quick books") never try to get a disability status? or they try and never make it? Or do they go for an interview, get their tinnitus

I recommend you search youtube for “va disability 100 percent” and witness the staggering number of channels clearly teaching people to game the system, complete with shush face thumbnails. There seems to be some profligacy from that angle

I think if you read the article linked and thought: “I can assume that AGI will be birthed by training on the entire Internet” then you didn’t read very carefully or judge the author well.

It’s a crappy thought experiment free from the constraints of any reality, and given that these fancy lookup tables understand most languages better than I do, it doesnt hold water. Thought experiments arent science.
