I disagree. Every time I've seen someone get a "bad trip", they're people who read a lot and worked themselves into a state of anxiety over the fact that something could go wrong. If they had just approached it like &quo

The argument should really be "fix regulations governing the honey industry", because nothing about honey farming has to be cruel or harmful to bees, but the law literally requires it to be in the case of Langstroth hives and many

Israel has currently invaded both Syria and Lebanon, they are obviously not very afraid of them.

For certain values of "we". For nuclear-armed states the threat of invasion is 0 and there's no danger of losing anything more substantial than face and whatever they've invested in foreign adventures.

I don't really disagree with anything you said, but none of this is even presented as "wisdom you can apply to your life". It's discussing an ideology for the ruling class, by the ruling class. The 0.01% and maybe people

A sales ban would simply be in compliance with international law, and the UK is a member of the ICC, so even a partial ban is failing to live up to their obligations. The US is not currently a signatory but it's own laws make it illega

The paper linked by the grandparent claims that archaeologists and paleo-anthropologists believed that it was impossible for humans to boil until the invention of stone-carving and pottery because they thought the containers would burn.

I find it fascinating that paleo-anthropologists didn't know about using leather or bark pots when those are extensively documented and presumably well-known to recent-ish-history-anthropologists. Is there just very little overlap and

Diacritics wouldn't have helped moderns if they were in from the beginning - most of the confusing words used to be pronounced like they are spelled (at least to people of the time). Maybe they would have helped to petrify pronunciatio

There are many countries where it's illegal to criticize people holding political office, foreign heads of state, certain historical political figures etc., while still being legal to call your neighbor a dick.

Rhyming slang rhymes tho. The recipient can understand what's meant by de-obfuscating in-context. Random strings substituted for $proscribed_word don't work in the same way.

AGI would need the whole management infrastructure and bureacracy that we use to manage humans. Specially-intelligent rather than generally-intelligent AI would be run-and-done. AGI is the worse option.

That "near-AGI" isn't all that near to AGI, and yet it still does what's needed. A fully autonomous intelligence would lessen it's usefulness and lower the efficiency. Nobody wants their electronic slave to get it

AGI is never coming. It's too hard, too expensive, and there's absolutely no valid usecase. Fulfilling the god-complexes and/or fetishes of tech moguls is not enough to make the effort worth it.

Turkey and Iran also have some common interests WRT to Kurds and other minority groups, though they clash in other areas (like Syria).

Iraq invaded Iran - that wasn't a war of Iranian aggression. Or is your point just that Saddam Hussein's Iraq was just as bad as Israel, so Israel is OK somehow?

Canada is in no way "mostly unarmed". ~20% of households have a gun. Some countries in Europe also have high ownership rates as well (like Finland).
