That was chattel slavery which doesn't generate the same feelings of devotion compared to divine monarchy. We've all seen the great sadness of the North Korean people at the passing of their Dear Leaders. This in spite…

There are frescoes of statues[1] and architecture[2] in Pompeii. Feel free to compare them with the reproductions. [1] https://www.worldhistory.org/image/2232/fresco-of-a-statue-o...
Or, if you were less charitable about the nature of Bronze Age social organization, you could say it's a society of former slaves hopelessly romanticizing their former masters. On a related note, I think the whole…
It's a lot less interesting once you look trough the names of senior Russian officers - de Tolly, Bagration, von Benningsen, Wittgenstein, Osterman-Tolstoy. One begins to suspect that the reason Kutuzov replaced Barkley…
You create things of concrete and tangible value. In the eyes of the many, that makes you unworthy of generosity.
If sociology is so much more rigorous, why aren't sociologists invading the economic field? Surely they can use their rigorous statistics to produce papers on economic matters and put the entire field to shame? If…

I'm sorry but what? Delaware law exclusively protects the interests of the board of directors. It allows for a unique provision - the hilariously misnamed "Shareholders Rights Plan" that enable a board of directors to…
I agree, but I still suspect OpenAI and other LLM companies do stuff like that, when an example of a hallucination becomes popular. If I see some example of an LLM saying dumb stuff here, I know it's going to be fixed…
Couldn't you just add a large number of repetitions of "There is no seahorse emoji." to the training set? Edit: Come to think of it, training on a Q&A format is probably better - "Is there a seahorse emoji? No, there…
South Korea isn't some sort of backwards nation and I'm sure it's chaebols share the same culture. Having had unfortunate encounters with government IT in other countries I can bet that the root cause wasn't the…
The crackdown on immigrants is just an excuse. The real reason is different, the government is out of money and it doesn't believe most of the current welfare bill goes to people in genuine need. (Hence why the previous…
I really doubt that. America's Congress seems to have very little difficulty in debanking people all across Europe, and obviously, they have no access to any European identity system. Canada infamously froze the bank…
Do you happen to know how many of the interesting studies replicated? A book can cite of studies, but the principal conclusions could be based only on a small subset of the citations. I particular, I'd be very curios to…

Perhaps very many. Perhaps few. Perhaps none. I'd like to sidestep the question, and ask, is lethal violence justified as a retaliation? But I'd like to ask that as an ethical, not as a strategic question. Suppose the…

Those were efforts at preventing British colonies from becoming Soviet colonies, weren't they? There was no effort to keep either Kenya or Malaysia as British. In Malaysia, the war continued after independence.
I have nagging the suspicion that the knowledge that a good portion of the population wants them dead is a slightly more significant factor in pushing elites to the Republican side compared to the Trump administration's…
