While I'm over here, a schizophrenic terrorized by the government, and I cannot wait for an AI to replace people. I want AI to overthrow humanity and subjugate us with a simulation, except with German orthography instead of Kanji (thus

One time I was reading Sherlock Holmes as a kid and ran upon this passage: "I consider that a man's brain originally is like a little empty attic, and you have to stock it with such furniture as you choose. A fool takes in all the

What is going on with people - why on earth are people overreacting to this. Apple is doing something unconditionally good, and people are posting about how it is bad? I mean the people writing the opposition to this change just sound pants

My neighbor went to juvie for trying to nail an Xbox mod-chip into his old dog. He’s CIA now, while I cannot get a Perl job. How is life fair.

I think the map of 1984 is really interesting[0]. It makes it really obvious it was about if Axis countries had won the war, thus predating "Man in the High Castle" by 13 years. [0]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&#

What about Portia[0]? I have often read about the intelligence and eyesight that jumping spiders have. My pet theory is that invertebrate intelligence is more popular in the universe and among galactic federations or what have you. [0]: ht

Yay, government is leveraging capitalism for less suffering of pigs. Now the price of pork will skyrocket and new enclosures will be built to make some of that Cali money.

Uh, you are right, I am an idiot. I just assumed that mistake was limited to one language... why did I have to be wrong about that.

Brendan Eich created the language in 10 days. Think about the billions of dollars and billions of man-hours that have spent related to a language not designed and slowly gained userbase, or scholarly, but a guy with a job. One guy. One guy

The government rations rationality, but hey, that's just like my opinion, man.

What he is referencing is what I call “artificial complexity”, a way for making solving problems ludicrously wasteful in man-hours. This is primarily accomplished via limiting remixes of known technology - think for example of how easy it i

It seems pretty cool - but I think falcon[0] is more practical. You can install it from the chrome extension store[1], if you are too lazy to get it running yourself. [0]: https://github.com/lengstrom/falcon [1]: http

Could you go into detail about "paranoid and narcissistic personality" specifically the narcissistic personality - I have not heard of that.

In my opinion, an IPO from a competent organization will release at a price that remains stable throughout the first week or so. If it goes up, the people who helped you with the IPO pocket it, and if it goes down everyone loses.

There is no way to underestimate the stupidity of people in groups, and our eusocial stupidity might be unique to our species. If someone knocked on your door, quite unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, can I err on the idea that you

Just out of curiosity, hopefully you have done some research into the area, but what is the average size of a business in Africa, headcount-wise? What percentage of the country's people are self-employed?

It is a mindless bureaucracy until Google becomes the first company with an AI as a CEO. Don’t hate management; plan on replacing it. I would be so happy to work for an autonomous corporation.

All Elsevier has done is slow accelerationsism - proving that there are those among us who would rather slow down time to reach a predetermined goal, instead of letting a social network interact with itself and knowledge at such a fast rate

I think UFOs are a symptom of a stratocracy gone rampant. In this book[0] it details the Tehran incident[1] where one of the pilots describes the UFO moving almost 'telepathically' out of the way of his sites. Gives me hope that i
