I'm thinking more from my context where it probably wouldn't make sense. Small city that's rather spread out and quickly transitions into farmland. And a big culture of driving to neighboring counties for vacations…
This will work for a few cities like New York or San Francisco but not for rural communities and won't be efficient for smaller cities or towns that are spread out. At least not without sacrificing independency and…
The requirement is money and connections
Thanks! There's definitely enough blame to share around
Reading the article, I must clarify my question. You said that there was state level movements prior to the UK. Did you mean that prior to 2023 or 2017 there were US state level efforts? Where was that happening? Sorry…
Ah. I can't currently view the article, and assumed you were making an offhand reference. My apologies; I'll have to save it to view later
Which states? How much? Were these anomalous events that were overturned, or more systematic? These are honest questions I'm having, not trying to argue any narrative
My understanding is that the lack of vowels, word spacing, and punctuation in texts suggests that all ancient texts were meant to be heard, not read. I think it was Augustine, or some other Church Father, was talking…
Every time I read Hugging Face, my brain first jumps to facehugger from Alien. I really wish they chose a different name...
It's much easier to blame everyone else instead of trying to change myself
The cynical side of me wonders if some books might be "banned" on purpose to have the distinction of being a banned book. Probably few books are actually that way, but these days it seems like a shortcut to notoriety
Kids like repetition in their media. They often ask to watch the same movie for days/weeks on end, or read the same story every night, or the same story. And if you don't tell it the same way they remind you... Suffice…
> Perhaps true malice, then, resides not in the monsters themselves but in the systems that classify them as enemies No, malice does not come from the systems. It comes from us who make the systems
Perhaps upgrade to one a few versions out of date but confirmed to be good?
"Wait, those are real people whose jobs I cut? I thought they were just numbers"
And, in weird circumstances, men can lactate. There's even a story about a viking whose name is escaping me who nursed his son after his wife died.
The world we live in is capitalistic. We can imagine another world that isn't, but when we're considering specific pieces of technology, it's worthwhile to judge it by how it will perform or be exploited in the world we…
>>Some human still has to be accountable. Someone has to get fired / go to jail when something screws up. Now I'm trying to imagine a way they could apply a criminal charge against an AI in such a way that it would…
On the plus side, the current administration isn't obscuring the corruption like previous administrations, which is somewhat refreshing.
It's very disconcerting to think that this "innocent" toy or clothing I see my children playing with as "tainted" by this monster. Suddenly he's not just some nebulous monster out there, but in some way the idea of him…
Did not realize I could do that! Thank you!
And have schools stop giving kids laptops or tablets. I wonder how much of the Chromebooks for school incitive was to develop a new market for Google
Everyone thought that we were designing the system, but it's really been the system designing us. (Only half joking; the medium is the message, and changes us as much as we change it)
I think some of the released documents included images of victims, which where redacted. So it's not necessarily malicious removals
The Sun Eater series is an interesting one that kind of goes both ways. The big alien baddies are basically demons, and humanity gets a lot of love, but all the politicking and whatnot shows humanity to be both good and…
