How would you possibly prove that AI is necessary for a job when someone has been doing the job successfully for years before AI? Same for computers and engineering.
During the medieval period and the Renaissance you totally could do art that had nothing to do with church and royals. In the Soviet Union you could not. There is a famous quote of the judge on the Brodsky trial (1964):…
> So the right is incentivized to protect this industry even if it becomes obsolescent and is no longer the most economical or practical way to generate at least much of our energy needs (electricity). I think in that…
That is not how it works. First, you for decades pay 5-10 times more for energy to subsidize every single green energy project... and then oopsie woopsie you still buy Russian gas and dependent on the evil coutries.
> But maybe we decide that boiling orphans isn't an industry we want as a society, and legislate consequences for doing so. And in the same way we have decided that the screens for children IS an industry we want as a…
Before there was Lenin, after there was Khrushchev, both explicitly considered art that is not pro-government communist propaganda as thing that should not exist.
> Soviet Union was one of last countries with true art. There was no art, only pro-government communist propaganda. In Soviet Union there was even popular saying regardless culture, that Stalin took over a Russia of…
> Hollywood got devalued because people prefer spending time on Youtube/TikTok/Instagram/Reddit/Discord/Video Games/Hacker News/etc. Hollywood got devalued because it is spending more money than before to get worse…
> By whom? By the relatively small group of armed leftist activists ready to use violence until their goal would be achieved.
By what measurements? It seems most of Europe has such unrestricted government that it is borderline fascism.
> Most of the time, they eliminate voting, not make it compulsory. No, that is totally not true. Even North Korea doesn't eliminate voting. People there still vote, just very controllable by the government. Compulsory…
By what logic it is supposed to stop descent into authoritarianism? Сompulsory voting is an instrument to build authoritarianism, not to prevent it.
> with incredibly high trust A am not sure that is true.
> that failed state Aren't literally every country doing the same?
Sounds pretty humiliating.
I mean the protesters say that Macron IS the far right, so from their perspective there is no way the protests will make things worse.

When I learned it as an undergraduate way later, entire cryptographic underpinning of the Internet were based on pretty trivial mathematics. Trivial to that extent, that if mathematicians wouldn't create those math,…

That is why schools should have physical punishments. "What is the purpose of learning this? What a stupid question? To not get additional lashes, obviously"
