Slap children often.
Is the HackerNews official stance to froth madly at anything Uber because, at the heart of the matter, they are long-standing medallion monopolies held by entrenched officials in very wealthy cities? Next time you write…
Played WoW for years. Grinded most of my members to rank 14. Ran a PvP guild that lost three times in 6 months during this grind. Tricked the entire horde to split forces in AV with 3 deep operatives, allowing Alliance…
Because it's ability to generate a limitless supply of zero-days makes it easier for us in San Francisco to go after blogs we don't politically agree with. Isn't that right, Mr. Altman. :D
Hey, Altman. How's the circlejerk growing? By the post, I see. No worries, I'm sure your research on basic income are super popular with your fellow peers. Too bad it will never happen. :D
Freedom of association means assembling with like-minded interests, not purging unlike-minded interests. What you are trying to defend with that deep-end SJW Kool-aid belly flop is the unchristened but widely-held…
Did the pixels offend you? Block everyone who disagrees with you. Now you know why no one you knew voted for Trump. If the left is obsessed with turning their entire belief system into a remake of the 1930s radio model…
You're on to something!
I gotta say, watching the political ideology that doubled down on postmodernism massively backpedal on the "truth is relative" meme is endlessly entertaining.
No one is making irrational judgments based off of the amount of photons that are being reflected. Many Indians can't reflect many photons, either. Police aren't shooting them. Let's see if you can make the leap into…
So you're saying it's okay to be prejudiced against people because of religious beliefs? Like... say... Judaism, for example?

Keep your weird contained to your monoliths and stop trying to colonize JavaScript!
To kill two birds with one stone, as soon as animals demonstrate something more akin to tribal-level human behavior of religious worship (the grand fusion of self, environment, social, and mystery into the realm of…
I provided the very best and most recent research for the absurd position that animals supposedly have their own animal gods, attend regular communal worshipping ceremonies, engage in animal religious ritual, and…
I didn't say "intelligent". I said "AI", as in "artificial intelligence" which implies a simulation of human intelligence. Machine processes already exist that demonstrate, say, ant-like intelligence.
The best case for animals demonstrating religious behavior (which is fundamentally different than believing in a god, mind you) is from a very convoluted interpretation of a food coma.…
Believing in a god is unique to the human species. No other animal does this. Thus, if you want full and complete simulation of human intelligence, this is the ultimate benchmark to test against. Furthermore, the…
Being made to believe in a god isn't the same as believing in one. Silicon Valley thinks AI is not an epistemological problem, as if neurons can be perfectly simulated atomically and that all intelligence processes can…
A machine process qualifies as AI if it believes in a god. EDIT: I see the nuances of epistemological problems are lost to HN and knee-jerk culture war atheism still rules supreme.
Your model expects your child not to be attacked. The child was attacked. You suddenly have the energy for resynchronization so that your model can persist despite this exception.
I would argue that China, Japan, Korea, and other Buddhist-heavy nations have other cultural mechanisms to prompt one to remodel reality. Buddhist teachings make it very clear the desire is the source of suffering, and…
Western culture is so obsessed about suppressing anger at all costs. Like each person is a nuclear weapon that needs to be aggressively contained or else the entire fabric of civilization will collapse. Anger exists for…
It's not the others that cause cognitive dissonance. The dissonance is caused when your in-group AGREES with the others. Without an in-group, the others are just datum to digest and process. Without others, the in-group…
Your borderline autistic model of privilege is being used as club to justify systemic abuse from the same authoritarian forces you are attempting to describe with your faulty model. You should feel bad, but I know you…
