There is a moral dimension, you're just choosing not to acknowledge it. Feyerabend speaks to things that add context and nuance to the effects, consequences, and provisions of the things you've felt comfortable discussing so far.

Yours is a rather pedestrian dorm-room take on epistemology and relevance of the moral dimension to social progress whose flaws are addressed in longform by Feyerabend.

So is it likely this one merely escaped? I find it hard to believe someone who would own one of these would not be an enthusiast, and that enthusiasts wouldn't find another owner for a critically endangered species rather than merely d

I recommend for you to read Feyerabend's Science in a Free Society .

There are morally neutral technologies, but the unique quality of surveillance data containing PII (and tools to correlate across time and space) means that it's only morally neutral until it is used in any capacity. Which is to say,

I remember seeing postings for "Forward Deployed Engineers" and thinking that this naming convention targets folks who don't like to work out but still have a military fetish and want to feel important. It's self-aggrand

Only if you refuse to acknowledge the deleterious effects on society from ruining any notion of trust. Being held hostage by bad actors until you fortify your defenses seems to be a very unnecessary technical solution to an easily predicted

Right, in the minds of millions right now there's literally no reason to fight for this country. This country certainly ignores their existence and refuses to honor most forms of basic rights as health, education, and shelter. It reall

"Cool visuals" are "dramatic statements". Neither have any substance nor basis in reality. What would this possibly add over existing AI chatbots if all it's for is "organizing thinking"? There is no val

More signs of the AI bubble. Completely unprofessional behavior ("cool visuals" not "real results"). And don't give me that "hacker culture" bullshit, these people are targeting Wall Street as paying cu

I'd say it's "typical" that one person witnessing another's plight will identify with them based on the similar conditions of struggle, oppression, etc. As you point out, the trick is to expose them to those scenes

Then the key aspect of our discussion is the "identifiable" part, which you've left out.

"Anyone could have been driving my car, you can't positively identify me in the driver's seat with the evidence you have submitted" is routinely used to toss out cases involving traffic violations. It's not necessar

You might be treating "neighbor" too literally. People understand the global nature of the limits on resources and by extension the world economy better every year. The boundary of who shares 'stake' grows likewise.

Methinks you've been sitting in your armchair too long. Broad-based alignment doesn't come from nothing, but it is surprisingly easy to achieve when a population recognizes a shared stake. A synthesis between selfishness and altru

Microtonal music throws all of that out the window. Logic only works in the context of definite ontologies. But audio frequencies are continuous, not discrete. It really is all vibes at the end of the day. Plug for Angine de Poitrine for

The persistence of data means that if you expect a firm to eventually become hostile, you should treat them as hostile today.

Chrome and YouTube are both owned by Google. There's an obvious reason why they want to discourage use of that extension.

You were paid by rich companies to write those laws, or else given access by people with more money and influence than you. These things are often done in ways that result in those same people making more money. It is incentive and reward a
