Nobody was compared to the nazis, so Godwin's law is not yet relevant in this discussion.

If my job devolves to reviewing AI code, I'm becoming a plumber.

Rewriting code to be more compact is orthogonal to productivity.

Sure there is. They're a Christian, and think any action that causes death directly or indirectly condemns you to hell, and it's not given that you can repent. But scripture says b…

Sure, I'd say that's a requisite for believing in Christ. But like I said, that belief can be sparked after what seems like any number of transgressions.

I'm certain I could not raise a novel theological perspective on Chrstianity even if I devoted my entire life to it. But from what I can tell, killing is not a black stain that pre…

I thought accepting and believing in Jesus as Lord was all you needed to enter heaven? John 6:40 (KJV) 40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the S…

Neither the OP nor you give a reason for why that's bad. I want my child to have all possible advantages in life. I'm sure most people want that. Why shouldn't we select for that? …

Have you considered just doing hyposensibilization therapy? No reason to go the way of surgery before trying that. Worked wonders for me and my array of allergies, dust mites among…

Prevent pasting comments. Implement a naive check for time spent typing the comment, and shadowban posts that don't pass the criteria. Add a 1 minute wait and captcha for posting. …

Well, the map obviously does a lot of extrapolation. Look at Norway, for example. The bigger cities pollute the air in a 50km radius? In a country where heating is primarily electr…

Which branch your work was done on is noise, not signal. There is absolutely zero signal lost by rebasing, and it prunes a lot of noise. If your branch somehow carries information,…

How would you measure time going backwards if you can only perceive it going forwards? How can you "experience" everything around you going "backwards" if that includes your memory…

>does it make sense to ask how something created after its emission could affect its path The problem here is likely the concept of "after". It's relativity; what's "after" in our …

Another human being doesn't scare me, because they will think like a human, consider themselves human, and relate to humans. A thinking machine is a total unknown. If human intelli…
