This is why you can't leave judgment to technology, and why we have law enforcement and courts "Plow into this crowd of people" is nominally wrong, but what if its actually "plow into this crowd of people that are hurtin

All I see is a flattening of the technical curve. Which is great, but the number of people who want to download an app is still the same. So all you have is 100,000 apps with no users instead of 10,000 apps with no users You increased the a

I mean most of Chinese "wars" have been border issues. Most of these border issues themselves stem from badly drawn borders post colonial withdrawal. These are understandable, if not justifiable - countries tug at each other to fi

The Indian wars were border skirmishes at most. Literally 2,000 soldiers dead on both sides combined by official count. Very few civilian casualties. The 2020 skirmish was way smaller with single digit casualties. Again, almost no civilian

All my adult life, China has given me cheap material goods. Whatever they do in their country is their own problem. They’ve never interfered in my politics or started any wars

Democratization of information, but Sam Altman gets a $100B net worth and I'm still broke :) I would prefer some sort of democratiziation of the money made from the democratization of information as well
