Anyone have recommendations on books that can rival the first part of Accelerando in number of prescient ideas about how the near future, pre singularity might look? My own list is: Starmaker by Olaf Stapledon Counting Heads by David

In a country with a national health system, why should you be able to internalize the benefit of smoking whilst externalizing the cost?

Completely false: https://x.com/i/status/2019213765506670738 Listen to the statement. The operators help when the Waymo is in a "difficult situation". Car drives itself 99% of the time, long tail of issu

But why is FSD "failing" is the key question. Hint: it's not the sensor inputs that are the bottleneck!

I like the comparison, but with aviation on a fundamental level we made it simpler (removing actuation), not added more (senses we dont need)

How can you say camera only navigation won’t work with such finality when humans manage just fine every day! You literally have an existence proof of it working.
