We will have to agree to disagree. I have no intention of changing reality, it will be whatever its meant to, and I've a fairly firm grasp of it, and the underlying problems. The way things are going people will end up killing themselv

It was corruption and fraud, plain and simple, and all of the people involved should be in prison.

Dishonesty in this case is simple; its fraud, everyone knows how to deal with fraud even big business. This is just propaganda meant to get people back to the office, poorly veiled propaganda at that. If the person signed conflicting agreem

As several have mentioned this is a common symptom with ADHD, what no one has mentioned is it is also a common symptom from various types of heavy metal poisoning. While I am not a doctor or a psychiatrist, you may want to speak with one to

I use the classical and only legitimate definition of bitrot. Any other instance using that term is merely a corruption of language meant to mislead and confuse, and make communication harder if not impossible. Its hard enough communicating

Spooky action at a distance? Kidding aside, no one knows what exactly we do differently that allows for complex thought, context switching, or conflict resolution that works around those aforementioned problems.

This will never work, fundamentally any computer is unable to solve certain types of problems. They run into several different core computer science problems when you try to have them do this. There is the halting problem and the decidabili

Its hard to argue with true. While there is a small amount of uncertainty, since the future is uncertain, that uncertainty continually decreases as you approach a point of no return. Companies have propagandized this to protect profits foll

That's not necessarily true. Bitrot and bit flipping is pernicious and largely silent, while it affects source code less than object code, its still an issue regardless of the language medium.

The goal need not match up with CCP, this is a red herring, there are many other actors in this space each with their own goals using the same or similar methodology and practices. I must mention that overgeneralizing is a form of flawed re

Here's the link. The pdf link is on the left side about a quarter of the way down. I appreciated it as an interesting read because it takes a here's what happened, here's what we were seeing. This is what was happening based

More than likely its intentional. One of the main reasons TikTok has been grilled by congress is because of China's stance and willingness to violate any law for their own benefit. One of those benefits not very commonly understood in

The people involved should go to prison. This is no less of an offense than corruption by judges, or other public official. It may be one step removed, but if you don't make an example out of companies and the people involved, this wil

They don't have much of an argument, a lot of their material is full of doublespeak narratives, and watered down information. Characteristics which any computer will fail at utilizing properly.

I used 'sugar' for a reason, comparing it to potato chips is an apples to oranges comparison. We are talking about addiction, and how the brain at young ages can't really perceive or moderate highly addictive behaviors. Sugar

Honestly, this sounds more and more like an association trigger and addiction seeking behavior. You may want to: https://www.yalemedicine.org/news/how-an-addicted-brain-work... Additionally, each one of those apps has

There's a lot of supporting material about addiction and young adults. Social media is just one avenue or road on a path of thousands at your fingertips. You don't control it, the phone manufacturer and the app makers do. You may

There really isn't much to debate. Kids are developmentally unable to cope with addiction. Even adults have a hard time, with training, support, and wasted life experience with regard to online gaming. They may move past that addiction

The problem with GPT in general is it lacks any understanding of what its saying. It sounds plausible if you don't have the background, simply because its been trained on a vast corpus of material. It hallucinates (lies) too. When you

This line of thinking is what will ultimately end us as a species. There are a number of systems that must run in a loop. When that loop stalls, because labor is part of that loop, and illiquidity occurs, and people can't get food. You

This would also legitimize fraud, and other unfair business tactics which are currently illegal under the law but are not being enforced under the reasoning that if an algorithm does it its not what it is. So people can design algorithms to

This sounds more like hopium to me. I'd sure like some of what they are smoking, but that doesn't make the reality any better. You would think these people would be educated enough to know how supply and demand actually works, and

This line of thinking is just flat out wrong, and uneducated. Price discovery is critical to any system, and money is the shared store of value of those that hold it so long as it retains that store of value. Producers set prices to make a

I agree, its a tradeoff wherever you go and takes careful planning. You can either have high overall income taxes, or you have high property taxes (and low overall cost of living). Ironically, for those who won't retire before 2030, we
