Yes! This is the multi-polar (or Moloch) problem, where (ruthless) individual rationality leads to collective ruin. Unless the system makes it unprofitable, ruthlessness will always out-perform good behavior. Players…

I'm really interested in this, too. Class warfare extends to most of the West. We live in an era of unprecedented propaganda efficiency getting effectively weaponized to divide and conquer us. It's enabling the…
I asked AI to explain activation vectors. How much did it get wrong?
Great, the bots have arrived.
Wow, I was hoping this was an option to not have the stupid center-mounted huge screen. I'd pay extra for analog controls.
A great book on this is 'Active Measures'. Most things have an organic start, which are then amplified / co-opted by various actors. The concept of Nuclear Winter first came up in the USA, then the Russians caught wind…
It's unclear which message you're trying to convey, but your math checks out. The net CO2 impact of natural processes is -19Gt/yr. Humans add +37G/yr for a net +18Gt. If we stopped everything, you'd expect -19Gt/yr;…
Democracy had enemies before the founding of the Republic. Our founders warned us that it would require constant maintenance: "a republic, if you can keep it," warned Franklin. Washington cautioned us that political…
Wouldn't we expect AJE to be pretty biased in this situation? I was thinking something from Europe or Asia (SCMP) might have less skin in the game.
>Despite their self-image, I don't think liberals are actually any better at empathy than anyone else. I can see how you think this, since othering and dehumanizing responses rise to the top when people ask how…

They could also help with color-blindness and face-blindness.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_law_of_oligarchy I came up with this idea, too, but was beaten to it by at least 100 years.
Many people raised the alarm back then, and were shouted down by promises that these laws would only be used when appropriate. In 2002, very few would've been okay with tearing apart American families, parents, and…

It's incredibly difficult to stop a well-funded, 50-year plan to subvert a democracy. The attention spans of politicians, corporations, and the public are measured in days, months, or years, not decades. After 9/11, the…
I saw the same thing immediately. The robot arm could be calibrated to use a real slicing motion as well. They're misrepresenting the actual performance of this product. 100% confirmed meme product.

I know someone who was concerned about depression, and went to get checked. The diagnosis was normal. They were having an appropriate emotional response to very challenging situations.
The speed of light is rather unaccommodating. We run into human-perceptible relativistic limits in latency. Light takes 56ms to travel half the earth's circumference, and our signals are often worse off. They don't…
Adguard works fine? How are they not friendly?
As were many of us before our first introductory freedive course.
