Protestation
  • I think the word anarchy is bad branding. (Though good branding is impossible when the king want his citizens to hate you.)

    From what I understand, the main goal of anarchy is to remove the system that separates us from power. For example, representative democracy makes it so you just go "pretty please represent me" without having any direct agency over the world around you.

    Anarchy is not "remove all the rules".

    Edit: if there is a system that facilitates personal rights and agency then it is not necessarily against anarchy.

  • It's all word views. Obviously a Christain who believes in souls has no reason to respect an animal if it doesn't have one.

    But, I just think we are matter, so I imagine that matter inherently experiences. In that case, humans are no longer the obvious protagonist who has no reason to feel bad about abusing the rest of those out there.

    Edit: And the fact that racism likely comes from people looking different, acting different, having resources we want, difficulties in communication, and/or leaders having an incentive to support it, it is pretty easy to see how specism exists. Whethere or not you care about that is up to you.

  • In college I was told over and over that SECURITY BY OBSCURITY IS NOT ACTUALLY SECURITY. So using thoroughly tested and examined security techniques from open source software is the gold standard.

    There are known secure algorithms that cannot be cracked by modern computers. So, no reason to try and reinvent the wheel and just hope your way is better despite decades of refinement and research into modern open algorithms.

    Climate change could lead to food-related civil unrest in UK within 50 years, say experts
  • And remember who mininformed conservative to do this: the very nutritious elite.

    The elite wanted to do this, and they convinced the conservatives to let them.

    Generating not existing sources
  • LLM's like the AI's you mentioned generally are just really good at predicting the next word. For example, Given an input like "My dog likes" an AI may add the word "treats" to the end. They are so good at predicting the next word that they will write paragraphs that sound entirely human.

    So, when they give you strange links, and made up names it's probably because it just thought that stuff sounded good.

    You can only trust results if you verify them yourself.

    I am not sure if the paid versions are better.

    Israeli minister: 'We are fighting human animals'
  • You have a good point I was a bit too black and white with my comment. There definitely seems to be a correlation between size and violence of terrorist groups, and the human rights of the area they riside in.

    Also totally agree that it can happen to me. Gotta acknowledge that you don't really know anything and you are pretty much always just taking someone's word for things. I believe the Earth is round, but I'm just taking people's word for it.

  • You have a point. Though the US white supremesists haven't launched such organized and open assaults. So maybe it just scales with human rights abuses.

    Israeli minister: 'We are fighting human animals'
  • First, only the sith (and the ignorant) deal in absolutes. Second, it's fair and right to feel for the people attacked by the Hamas, and fair and right to acknowledge the apartheid state of Israel that created them.

  • Should pay be related to what percentage of your net worth you risk? $1000 is a very different amount of risk for different people.
