It's funny. In my failing democracy people are convinced the solution is a two party system like the US (we have a parliament with a large amount of parties) Somehow I have a feeling the problem is not the system, but the culture...

I think the motivation for someone like Altman is not AGI, it's power and influence. And when he wields billions he has power, it doesn't really matter if there's AGI coming.

Yes, that adjustment could well be monarchy. I can't see how functioning democracy can survive without truth as shared grounds of discussion.

So averages and social dynamics map exactly to individuals? "Race" is so undefined it's just silly to argue about. We are tremendously more similar than different. We have a visual bias, so a difference in skin color will dom

If Israel is alien to the region, so are Arabs which is what Palestinians are. That's nonsense. The Jewish people have a long (2000years) of calling Israel territory as home. Does it mean I deny the Palestinians national claim, no. Bu

I supportthe two state solution. Alas hamas killed that one in The 90s when they decided to send suicide bombers to Israeli busses during the peace process that Israel initiated. Also Israel accepted the two state solution in 1948, alas al

So you want Israel to cease to exist? Germany did the Holocaust, nobody said Germany can't exist. Russia attacks Ukraine in an emperialistic power move, no one suggest Russia shouldn't exist. But Israel is a "project" th

Yes, anti trust rules should have stopped amazon. But they didn't, this directly hurts open source. I don't think elastic would've tried the license change because of competition using the open source. The problem is Amazon,

Negging you? That was the US policy. Disarm your allies while promising to protect them. Canada could've had nuclear weapons. You convinced them to not have it. Same with Ukraine and many more countries. Their fault was trusting the U
