I would have added some data points to your original comment, but then mods deleted your comment while I typed. Seems they've got to suppress single anecdotes so no one has the bravery to add a second.

If you don't know the truth, at least try not to lie. Nothing I've seen in the dozens of downtown live streams jives with the smearing I've witnessed on places like r/pics and the news. It appears from the commentary t

Of course, voter ID opponents have let out the private partisan internal logic lots of times when they thought only people aligned with their faction were listening, so we don't need to speculate why the rules are inconsistent with the

When you show up to vote in a non-voter-id state, you only have to give your name. Any one could have shown up in my place and voted in my name, because no ID was allowed to be show. This was made more apparent when I reached for my walle

AGI draws upon dozens of fields. The facet of AI Safety and Risk Mitigation consulting is where I started, and I was heavily influenced by Dr. Roman Yampolskiy. By the time we met in person I was already designing a bootstrap. It was a j

I left my lucrative cybersecurity startup job to pursue full time independent research in AGI. Several months in and it's been great progress wise, and I have to live more frugally. Being on the cyber startup was like being on a cru

I agree. My revenge as a user has been to scrape entire channels I want to watch, as I can only imagine things getting worse than they are now (less free, less intrusive, more thought-police). I now have a lifetime worth of non-perishable

I deleted my real account earlier this year, but if I want to get to the marketplace I use a fake account (I had set up several years ago for political research.) I then use FBPurity and some uBlock Origin code to remove all "ship to

I was in the back room of Epic Megagames in 97 when Tim Sweeney showed me his automatic LOD on the Skaarj model. It was pretty basic compared to the current tech, but I think remember him saying it didn't require lower poly meshes&#x2

I've been loving Foam as it lives inside VSCode, where I spend most of my days anyway. Obsidian was nice too, but I ended up moving back to Foam. The only feature I wish Foam had is to apply force directed layouts to only selected no

Yeah they forgot the paragraph where NASA brings the rock home by hurling it towards Earth, killing 99% of humanity after impact.

They are trying to drag down Biden by implying he is the person mentioned in Hunters family texts, saying that half of their salaries go to "Pops".

If this was due to some kind of traveling wave in quantum foam, would that cause it to be non detectable as heat in large spaces, and also have some kind of mass? (i.e. dark matter?) Is density and ratification of quantum foam a possibili

Funny story, in my undergrad I worked at UMIACS and we had to install a set of foot pedal mice buttons in an office next to Minker's. The user would move the mouse on their desk, but click with their feet.

I used to feel this way, until I read the book The Structure of Scientific Revolutions by Thomas Kuhn. The author points out correctly that too often the arrival of our current state of scientific beliefs from the past is drawn out as a st

Have you seen Blizzard's official Weibo account apology to China? It seems like kowtowing still seems to be their plan to get into that sweet sweet mobile game market.

We're not going to ban you from a sport, take your prize money and fire those associated with you, if you wore a "Bush did 9-11" t-shirt and shouted 7 words about how the US was wrong to invade Iraq. My children were very am
