If the cause they donate to is bad, it is

His whole blog is exactly the same kind of nonsense as the article and reeks of effective altruism. That's not an ad hominem.

Sadly they're very bad writers. Have you actually read the stuff they produced? Horrible. Yudkosky himself wrote https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Potter_and_the_Methods_o... It'…

"And I'm sorry, but you're not up to date about interpretability literature, or for that matter philosophical discourse," I see no citations referring to the current philsophical d…

Also works with Linkding

I get (and share some of) the frustration, but have yet to find anything better. XMPP and IRC are not it, for me. Neither give me a better experience nor are they easier for non-te…

Love Matrix/Element and how you deal with criticism. I've heard (and tried) the new experimental webapp. Is that actually something more than an experiment and will this see furthe…

No. The author simply sees it as basically complete and decided to spend the time he has fixing bugs instead of taking care of issues.

Maybe I'm confusing something, but I thought dendrite development had stopped due to budget concerns. I see now that there were actually recent releases on github.

Really appreciate your work and am thankful for matrix and element. As a user of Element call via the desktop app, I found myself sometimes confused whether I was actually using th…

Thank you for borg

That's very interesting. Never had noticed anything like that. What kind of workloads are you seeing this with?

No, they always very actively did everything they could to get as much money and influence out of whatever political system they're operating under. The Nazis very happily and inte…

Ah, you're thinking of the world famous Las Vegas Hyperloop!

I was a bit surprised by that when I first learned that from a healthcare worker, but it's true. I think this should be taken care of by the employer.

We might have different ideas of what "sensible" means.

Not familiar with how flagging works. Why would it be flagged?

You sound like Jordan Peterson.

Love matrix. Improving the onboarding is a great step. I've seen less technical people have issues in that area until now. Mostly a desktop/web user myself, hoping all that Element…

I'm sorry what? Skeptoid the podcast? Edit: Yes . In 2014. How did I miss that? Used to listen to that podcast, though probably stopped before that.

I personally don't believe an archival storage, at least for personal use. Data has to be living if it is to be kept alive, so keeping the data within reach, moving it to new media…

I'm from Germany and personally prefer Japanese fountain pens, but also value our local brands. I took for granted that I could go into any small stationary store and buy a LAMY or…

Yes, because an actual A.I. would somehow be free of biases and magically tend towards justice somehow.
