Critics do not make good artists ... or content creators

Imagine Simon Cowell making music ...

Sounds like your city's economy is just too good and it's too easy to make money.

That's fine because our city could really use the funds.

And these articles never so much as mention ethical concerns

shocking how much people think ... "oh age discrimination doesn't happen since there's a law against it" :(

is slashdot now the Weekly World News ?

also, I see that people want to feel intellecutally superior, but do we need to be sprinkling "ontological" all over the place ?

Did you mean to say science "can't" do something for you there ?

"Substantial" is not a scientific concept.

Just like science can't talk about meaning or integrity or spirituality.

Christians like me disagree with every religion that doesn't center around Jesus.

This isn't some kind of thing against people with Indian skin colors.

I'm sick of this "join this activist mob or die" mentality.

YouTube decides what you can and cannot watch.

Those AI makers are tiny ants compared to that.

"Sounds to me like you're saying because of his use of one word "thrive" we shouldn't talk about climate change"

The OP uses the word "catastrophic" ... which is far from "thriving".

I'm not on the team saying what we can and can't talk about. Those're the Stalinists.

"Have you forgotten that billionaires have bunkers?"

Not many would call living in a bunker "thriving".

I wouldn't.

"Thrive is relative ... significant human suffering"

You seem to imply that I don't think significant human suffering is thriving (which is true).

And if you think that we can still use words even if they aren't nailed down to laboratory precision, then I think it's fair to "significant human suffering" is hardly "thriving."

If the Chinese EV market is capsizing (like we saw in yesterday's headlines here on /.) then how well are the flying cars going to do ?

Bill Gates is also saying humanity will continue to thrive (his exact word) with any of the coming climate changes.

Why are we still talking about climate change again ?

My kids classes here in North Carolina are full of Chinese kids.

They're here in the US because somebody (them or their parents) thought they would be better off in the US.

Where are the Americans sending their kids to find a better life in China ?

Few and far between. Maybe none.
