I mean we absolutely should spend money on research. Weve made enormous strides in the past 100 years. I was making a pretty narrow joke/observation about political cynicism . Regardless of whether Cancer is a disease that is curabl

Maybe something mildly amusing about the fact that every president says they’re going to cure cancer (when cancer problably isn’t curable in the classic sense of the word), so maybe some extremism in the other direction is called for.

This is interesting, everybody I knew IRL was affected by this, maybe this is one of those opposite scenarios where a thing really matters offline but not online? But for me personally, funnily enough, I think the Cracker Barrel debate was

I often wonder what the substantive risk is here. On the one hand, like I expect the media I interact with to vibe with me. I think if I logged into youtube and it looked like Rumble, I wouldn't use it. Not out of principal, not bec

Yeah, we’ll see what happens, but one of the interesting things about the book sapiens, is it highlights that there are plenty of paradigm shifting events in human history that change our basic assumptions. “Life is suffering” meant somethi

It’s kind of interesting that this occurs that at the same time tech leaders are basically telling us, we don’t need institutions, look we have ai instead of universities, tech will solve all of your problems. I don’t actually think there’

In the short term maybe, in the long term? I think most people choose their platforms over their people. No matter how exciting someone is, I'm 10x more likely to just find someone else on youtube than move to rumble. And if most pe

I’d be open to this argument, but it really feels like the problem is structural with; for example; Trump abandoning almost complete wind power projects. Maybe if the countries biggest companies were building things rather than trying to ge

One thing I noticed is I think if you auth with Google, Google will pass your email to the site, I think even if you don’t sign up.

I largely agree with this article (a few minor nitpicks here and there, maybe this biggest one is identifying the left as anti-science, which I won’t completely disagree with how he framed it, then goes on to talk about the magic of the mRN

This reads like a fairy tale, is this true or just wishcasting? I mean if one person does it I guess it’s technically true but.

Yeah, I do think there are some interesting questions in this area, but the idea that a country is primarily a country for X is hugely problematic and racist in many parts of the world, and has led to countless civil wars. The most obvious

“ Nvidia was up about 4.5% on the announcement. This project alone is a full year’s worth of Nvidia chips, which should further put to bed any question of Nvidia running out of Western customers for its chips, as discussed later in the post

Is it social media or is it natural processes? I'm not a social media defender by any stretch of the imagination, but I have to imagine similar trends occurred during prior areas of discord. In fact, Ironically, I would guess there w

I guess we’re going to find out, but how do your takeover the media or information system without the inevitable backlash? I might argue that it was the perception that the media and universities were liberal that led to the conservative ba

I feel like the left has forgotten how to build. My recollection of the activism of the 60s and 70s was like hippies building new kinds of anti-consumerist governance structures, and it’s kind of crazy to talk about open source in terms of

Then probably just more outsourcing? Which again, maybe the point is more to keep people from coming here and less to help American workers?

I think one reason the right is fighting so hard on this is the cracks in their own base. The Bulwark has been writing about this, but there are a few on the right that were mad at Charlie Kirk for changing thoughts on Israel, and there&#x2
