He already owns xAI, valued at $45B+.
4 things (for other people's benefit): 1. This person didn't claim THEY were harassed. They claimed others were harassed. This was not THEIR lived experience. They were talking about harassment secondhand. 2. The…
If one wanted to substantiate some of your claims here to be convinced of the problem you suggest, what's the best way to do that? What are the names of the IRC channels you were part of that said they weren't bigoted…
As an anecdote, I was very active in those communities/networks back in the day, and I don't remember the rampant racism/sexism you suggest. The main vector that people demeaned others on was based on technical skills.
That's great! For the sake of humanity, can you please start documenting your realizations/interpretations in some sort of readable/understandable format, with your reasoning? Especially those…
On examining the negative thought patterns, I think there's at least a couple parts to it: 1. If you very much believe no amount of physical health interventions will have any cognitive effects, then it seems like the…
This is not meant as a criticism, hopefully more of an inquiry if you so choose. Is it possible that your 'feeling' of your brain being irreparably damaged is actually factually incorrect? And that your…
You dismissed the article and author by labeling it a 'hit piece' by 'someone who hates wikipedia'. When other users asked if you had any substantive critiques of the claims in the article, you responded by saying you…
Would you actually be interested in reading about Wikimedia finances though? Wikimedia is a non-profit and posts all of their financial data publicly [1], why not go read it there? What's interesting is that you somehow…
How can you be sure any research won't result in violence? How do you establish whether a given piece of research/data will result in violence? Is your basic operating model for this: "Never show any data that shows…
But making it known that the line of questioning will bring violence to others is implying that if the person continues the line of questioning, they are then knowingly and intentionally bringing violence to trans…
As an extreme example: Times Square in NYC is considered a "Walker's Paradise" with a walkability score of 100 on Walk Score. But it seems like the worst possible place to walk, and most NYC locals I know avoid that…
I think with the popular conception/definition of walkability and the assigned importance of that conception is a little over-rated. I personally feel like it overvalues commercial activity (restaurants, retail,…
There was no accusation of making up anything, as I cannot possibly know your personal experience. What I was doing was pushing back on using comically outlier events as something representative of rural living, that…
I grew up in a rural area, and I experienced zero instances of loud ATVs and shotguns where I lived, at any time of day. This view sounds like a TV trope, which one might lean on if they don't have much in-person…
...according to your subjective value system.
> You're not exploring anything, you're not celebrating life, not producing any meaning. You just sit there, like a robot, pissing it all away. I would suggest that meaning can be found, even if you are unable to…
Not to be too much of a cynic, but this article definitely has me losing a bit of respect for this writer. It reads like the social acceptance of his writing/illustration is of the utmost importance to him, and that…
I think there a few aspects to whether something can be 'interesting' to me with regards to creation (i'm probably missing some): 1. Is the broader topic/activity interesting to me? (interesting in of itself, not for…
This view is really interesting to me. It seems like you are hyper-focused on ends/outcomes. And if an end/outcome of a pursuit isn't completely novel, unpredictable, or result in you being the best at the pursuit, then…
You're focusing on how socially valued your creative work is (and how it ranks relative to others), which is an external factor. I tend to find that if you justify doing creative work on whether it'll be better/more…
I agree, but I think they are linked. Culturally, the 'pro gender revolution, LGBTQ' movements and the fat pride movement (amongst other movements) are part of the same underlying thrust of our society. The basis is the…
I actually don't think invocations of 'natural' are very useful given: 1. There's a degree of ambiguity involved with the term as far as what gets lumped in with natural vs not 2. This ambiguity gets leveraged by those…
I think I agree with the thrust of what you are saying, in that we do need to think about the negative externalities of different technologies before scaling them out as a species. I am getting a little tripped up on…
Minor quibble with the usage of 'unnatural'. Humans are part of nature and our creations/society we build are a result of nature as well. In the bigger picture, I don't see why 'physical labor' should be considered some…
