The problem is that you're comparing numbers from before Trump's presidency, but the understaffing of FAA ATCs goes all the way back to when the Reagan administration fired all ATC…

You're supposed to feel the superiority, not taste it.

If I were asked to give up 10 years of my life I would rather choose to give up the final 10 years than 10 years in the prime of my life.

There's one elephant in the room that's not being addressed: Training an AI on GPL code and then having it generate equivalent code that is released under a closed source license s…

> If robots/AI work out and we do have 100% spare time then you’d hope there would be more of this sort of thing. If robots/AI work out we will need to use 100% of our spare time t…

That money is better invested in providing affordable family housing. Even if IVF is available no one is going to actually have kids if you do nothing to make it economically susta…

It's always a good idea to disguise your identity collection as "age verification".

In fact in sectors like the game industry the pandemic resulted in a massive hiring boom. The layoffs only materialized after the pandemic was well and truly over.

Security just isn't their vibe, that's for nerds.

This isn't a simple operation, killing a foreign head of state is about as clear of a declaration of war as you can imagine. The law was introduced to put a check on the president'…

> Trump has no structured paramilitary militias like the Squadras or the SA. The January 6th was mainly a crowd movement, participants were a heteroclite bunch with very different …

The dramatic difference is that Biden had Congressional approval to ship weapons to Israel and Ukraine.

> I'd suggest you read about fascist Italy to get a sense of what fascism is. So far I haven't seen Democrats repeatedly kicked out of cars in Times Square after drinking a bottle …

> Let's not waste the meaning of words by throwing them at any occasion. Honest question, but if this is not fascism, then what is? Aren't you also wasting the meaning of a word by…

> Dario Amodei published an essay warning about potential dangers from powerful AI — including domestic mass surveillance (which he brands “entirely illegitimate”) Why is only dome…

So you have a fudiciary duty to put the company's interest first and you have no legal duty to put the public interest first (as long as no crimes are being committed). What do you…

So the reason companies act against the interests of society is just a personal moral failing of the CEO and nothing else?

You're absolutely right, but the line between acting in the interest of the company and acting to maximize profits is so thin it might as well not exist. It can be in the company's…

I do, but that's the unfortunate reality we find ourselves in. It's why you should never trust a publicly traded company that promises to self-regulate, it is impossible for them t…

Why should a well-behaved AI company be singled out for continued access? If the industry can't regulate itself then none deserve access no matter if they're "well-behaved". Receiv…

Europe actually has quite a few independent cities with their own little micro nations that are democratically independent.

> That's how two party systems work Fixed that for you. There are democracies with proportional representation out there. Those have their own problems in forming coalitions, but t…

That assumes the bubble will burst, which it won't if they succesfully corner the high-end compute market. It doesn't matter if the AI is any good, you will still pay for it becaus…

I believe that eventually the AI bubble will evolve in a simple scheme to corner the compute market. If no one can afford high-end hardware anymore then the companies who hoarded a…
