So attack maps are pretty much just useless PR gags? Thats what I assumed but wasn't sure if I was correct.

One of the best explanations of it I've seen. Touches on the magic feeling of it (how would having a direct feeling of perception of the causal chain of the entire universe possibly not feel magical and profound) without depending on

If those are say, you and I, or you and the parent comment, how are they seperate? We're experiencing identical perception right now, me in the form of reading the words you wrote, and you in the form of reading these words. The words

It seems like a stepping stone. The idea of accepting that sort of full freedom is frightening to people not familiar with it. If a someone trained to evaluate mental health can be standing by saying "yes its worked, they've benef

Whenever I see things like this, it reminds me of articles about VR being dead and how its obviously not actually useful or interesting. It has always had potential to be a currency, but it requires a context of use in order to actually f

I honestly consider it a virtue to complain in such a situation. It might seem like it has negative consequences, but the reason I went to the restaurant and not another is because of an expectation they'll do their job as advertised.

I think you're right, its a sort of pseudo3d. Its a 3D presentation of a 1D (2D environment) perspective. Cut a horizontal row of pixels from the center of the screen and you have its flatland point of view.

That very likely is just the blood vessels in your eyes. I discovered them when looking at an LED light at an angle, certain angles will highlight them in your vision. I thought I might be tripping actually when I saw that, I had just taken

Because it gives twitter, not you or I, the sole power of deciding what is a lie and not. Its a power that can be used benevolently, but strongly begs human nature to use it in a corrupt way.

Having tried the oculus quest, I'm quite terrified that FB will rise back as the central VR provider. They've got the best user experience as far as that goes right now, and Zuckerberg has made it clear thats going to be a future

What are you using to tag things in this way? I agree entirely and would love to build a collection of "this one gets it"

That hasn't proved to be the case. Nor does it appear so anyways, they have a commercial interest to appear as though they are interested in keeping your browsing private.

It supports the argument that code with major flaws (intentional or not) can make it into production with nobody noticing until consequences of that flaw make its existence clear.

I think this is relevant https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21590028 I see what you mean and you're certainly right for a segment of the population that seems to get caught on the high without much skepticism of it.

Not if its over a private carrier. If its over USPS, I think yes they would need a warrant.

"Digital rights" feels quite appropriate and accurate though, and in fact should be considered a natural extension of the rights in the bill of rights.

There is a sort of proto community. A community that wants to be, but isn't because nobody started doing that yet. The point of it of course is that, if such a proto community doesn't exist, its going to be very difficult for a co

But the moon does disappear. The moon as I understand it is a glowing disk with particular patterns on it. That disc and patterns only ever existed in my mind. When not looking at the moon, it goes back to being a very large number of part

There is 100% probability that you are both. Why are you this one and not the other? Because you are not the other one. The other one wonders why it isn't you. The tautology should begin to be obvious. The answer is the same answer

This. The basic stuff they did back then didn't magically inflate. Except, it seems from afar that thats exactly what happened. But it didn't, and it doesn't have to look like that from afar.

The difference is rarely do people wake from a dream and feel they ought to change their life in major ways as a result. Curious what "high" doses of "plain old psychedelics" might be? I've never gone further than 2

Is there any info on where they got the procedure? From what I understand, LASIK is quite reasonably safe, as long as you don't goto a place advertising "SUPER SUPER CHEAP LASIK ONE EYE FREE" etc. You get what you pay for.

That sounds nice but is it really meaningful to cut such a small amount of waste? Consider all the other various cards which also might be digitized. Gov ID doesn't seem like the place to start, seems like maybe the one that should alw

Of course there is no answer to this question yet, but thats the point. Just because a thought experiment doesn't solve it, doesn't mean it cannot be physically produced. For all we know in actual implementation you would simply
