just looked the guy up. He's handsome. He literally looks like Jerry Seinfeld (actually, he looks even more like Pablo Schreiber who played Nicky Sobotka in The Wire). What a god damned twat. (Not that being attractive makes any of his arguments any worse than they already are)
100 megameters with no issues? How could Tesla not be #1 in car reliability rankings with that kind of performance? The rankings make it seem pretty average in terms of reliability.
Bankman-Fried is still doing what he can to spread the hype. Recently, one of the guards at the Brooklyn prison where he’s being held asked him for crypto trading advice, according to a person with knowledge of the interaction, who requested anonymity citing legal concerns. Bankman-Fried suggested the guard sell his XRP tokens and buy Solana.
So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
bronze age shawty's substack really tries to emulate meaningful artistic analysis but falls flat on its face because it's obviously working backwards from a conclusion. Fascinating.
as a wannabe science/mathtist I totally feel the pain of realizing that I will probably never have any good, original ideas unless I actually dedicate my life to studying the works of people that actually had good, original ideas.
In these people, I see a version of me that didn't tell myself that all my stupid theories of the universe and consciousness are total unfalsifiable wastes of time. It's a type of "high-iq" psychosis.
When you feed the world to a technocapitalist machine that produces misery and CO2, the price tag of a good night of sleep rises to donating some of that sweet, sweet value to save a few people from getting malaria.
no, haven't you heard? Great minds discuss IDEAS not PEOPLE. You're basically a Vogue cover article if you even dare delve into networks of powerful people beyond taking them at face value.
obviously the same thing and any moral stance that applies to one should also apply to the other. I can't wait for these people to be in power once the gerontocracy dies!
The real die-hards don’t think it’s a scheme to create a permanent Democratic majority; they think it’s a plot to ethnically replace white Americans. At its core, the great replacement is about demographics, not democracy.
The article doesn't try to rebut this because of the staggering number of premises you need to accept before you can even reach such a conclusion. It's really not worth unpacking here.
You'll notice I didn't disagree with the verdict. I just think Kyle is scum and a murderer even if that's not under the technical legal definitions.
I don’t feel that trying to stop property damage for a family friend’s establishment in the middle of a riot, where police refused to stop people, is a pattern of behavior I want to discourage people from doing.
Really? Letting children be judge, jury, and executioner when it comes to property damage is something your'e totally okay with? I think you have a little bit of growing up to do, buddy.
I found LambdaLisp from your mastodon post and was immediately intrigued. I'm going to try and run it to get a better understanding of how the IO system works, and maybe even cook up my own BLC interpreter to run it! The hardware stuff is definitely out of my depth, but this may be a great chance to learn.
If you unnecessarily bring a gun somewhere and end up in a situation where you need to use it to kill people, you're a murderer. I choose to label that murder because I place him in the same category as convicted murderers in my head. He isn't some dude going about his life and needed to use lethal force in self defense due to unforseen circumstances. He actively sought out the situation, and therefore bears some responsibility. This is more a question of if you want to see his pattern of behavior encouraged or discouraged rather than a question about any individual's culpability.
