The core idea of ASI arriving before AGI seems to be true: we have already seen that through Chess Programs, LLMs etc. However what caught my eye and that to me does reflect the lens through which the author sees the…
But are you arguing that when people believe things that are demonstrably false, like using bleach as a Covid remedy, not because there is any evidence behind them but only because they were uttered by someone they…
According to the article, such patents seem to come with a lot of restrictions and the patent apparently applies to traits of the patented plant: When a company is granted a utility patent on a type of seed, it doesn’t…
If somebody walks past a shop and does not buy the wares on offer because they are offended by the horrible decor, I assume, under this definition, this will be called coercion in that that they 'coercing' the owner to…
That seems like a horrible suggestion: That might work for one person but an entire country? That people who have lived their lives for generations in Ukraine simply uproot their entire lives, give whatever wealth…
So the argument is that since this criticism came from presumably a socialist, which we have no evidence for, we should not consider the criticism on its own merit?
Apart from violating privacy, instilling a culture of fear thereby impacting people's right to free speech and free organization, which is a cornerstone of democracy, making people fearful of saying anything against the…
Yes, I have definitely experienced this too. I also sometimes get results from websites that seem to be reskins of github (usually issues and pull requests).
While I am by no means an expert user, and I have a lot to learn on how to properly use inkscape, I used it for creating some figures for my thesis and it really came in handy. Congratulations on the release!
This may be a little off topic but your comment piqued my interest: I am currently learning JavaScript and I was wondering if you would like to recommend any of the books you read.
I don't want to be nitpicky but I am sorry I have to be: Is that feeling not better expressed by "misanthrope"?
"The problem is there's evidence should you choose to see it, constitutional unlawfulness & just cause on an unprecedented scale" Maybe you would want to provide examples of these then? "The way to kill the fraud…
I think the point about wars is fair. However, there's no evidence that the election was crooked - the courts think so too. In addition, the President's moral compass seems to be pointing towards strong arming election…
I agree. That's an important point and I suppose that begins with the government focusing on enacting legislation to actually solve problems that would make people's lives better - healthcare, educational debt,…
At that level of generality, a lot of things are political since one of the definitions of politics, according to Merriam-Webster [1] is: "the total complex of relations between people living in society". Does this now…
Frankly, are you not concerned that by not doing this, you would be signaling that there should be no consequences for this level of corruption, plain falsehood, and ostensibly deliberate attempts to overturn an…
Argument against Trump on what though? If you are talking about direct incitement to violence: Sure, he did not directly incite violence - he merely mumbled fire in a crowded theater. However, if the question is about…
I imagine that would be to hold an elected official to account for offences that are impeachable. When a president incites a riot and puts under siege the entire apparatus of your government, perhaps it would be prudent…
Will you try to explain why this is nonsense?
Do you think the results would be different if people were asked "If A implies B then does not B imply not A"? This could just be about using the right prompt - I do not know how information is stored in the brain and…
I have a few questions: > "In my city of Charlotte, with the Keith Scott shooting, it was: 9 democratic council members to 1 republican, democratic mayor, democratic governor, black police chief, and a black police…
It's even hard to say how "genuine" cleverness in human beings works - and we've had a lot more time to study ourselves - granted that most of that time we've not had the tools to understand how our brains work at the…
Wouldn't you say that a society that only places high value on taking a stance if that comes at great personal cost will probably not find too many people willing to take a stance?
Curious to see if there's evidence for this. I am not sure how one would go about measuring this - but perhaps it would help if you elaborate on how this favoritism manifests in the way Twitter operates. Is there…
"fortran 77" - username checks out. On a more serious note, I have been dipping my toes into Rust and it seems fun. I suppose, I'll have a more considered opinion of it once I actually build something substantial with…
