You're not going to find scientfic positions advertised on LinkedIn, and I don't know what other blind spots that selection makes. I would concede if you compared StackOverflow questions. That would also reflect the definition of

IIRC, the wave of suicides was confined to the members of the club, so they actually knew what was up. On the other hand, there was at least a strong hint that it was going to spread globally, so you have a point there. On the other hand, t

Keep in mind that (SPOILERS) the scientists were aware that their results were being manipulated. That's what the suicide note said, and that's also seen in the countdown that was clearly the result of an intelligent being.

No, there's no such assumption in my statement. That statement is merely open about what we don't know. Conversely, there is an assumption in your reasoning that non-animals are never conscious, which is, well, an assumption, and

That breaks down for anything that is not your kin though. "How do you know the computer is not conscious?" does not allow the answer "Because we are not kin". Best you can say is "Because we are not kin, I don'

Absolutely. What happened to all the below-0 degrees of cold? -2°C is mushy, -10° is crispy, and then it gets very cold. It's important! EDIT: now I see the last interval is just very large: -9°C to 0°C. Something around -5°C would w

I think you're misrepresenting this. The problem opposite to dying out is overgrowth. How do you distinguish which philosophy is trying to reduce overgrowth, and which is promoting dying out? Why do you think the article talks about on

Ironically, when NSDAP rose to power, this is how their competing parties neutralised themselves (according to what I remember from The Origins of Totalitarianism).

How is ESNI any worse than non-encrypted SNI in that regard? If plain SNI was sufficient, then there's no incentive to do anything new, and no difference. If you need to hide, then at least with ESNI, you can operate at all, even if be
