Probable Cause is a meaningful standard and theres a LONG history of cops getting dragged over the coals by judges for failing to apply it properly.

wait, which restaurants require an ID scan??

I just want it to be a bloody social network. I signed up early because my friends and family where there, and then watched in horror as it murdered myspace (horror, because as a gigging musicain myspace was the best damn thing that ever happened to independent musicians).

Then at some point it just slowly stopped showing me friends posts, stopped showing my posts to friends, and completely stonewalled any attempt to promote my band.

If Facebook can't do its only job, be a SOCIAL NETWORK, then what fucking good is it for anything?

Yeah theres a few of these.

Nvidia , bigger market cap than the entire combined pharma industry

Tesla, bigger market cap than the rest of the entire combined auto industry despite being 1-2% tops of that industry in terms of sales and revenue.

OpenAI looking to join that list.

These sorts of vastly illogical market valuations always get corrected eventually, and when that happens its going to have savage consequences.

The next stock market crash is gonna be a real doozy, and its coming soon...

Or.. you could read the actual paper.

Just saying......

You'd know, for instance, that it contains a rigorous proof that significant parts of the observable universe are uncomputable , that it specifically rules out cellular-automata premised ToEs and that there isn't going to be a mathematical work around to this.

And I doubt the authors need to "seek attention". Lawrence Krauss is already one of the worlds most prominent physicists.

Yeah this seems to torpedo wolframs ideas. The text of the paper does seem to focus mostly on the 'algorithmic' aspect, which is wolframs whole thing with his idea that cellular automata is at the root of everything.

We probably should have predicted this. The big labels are just as bad for musicians as the tech bros have ever been. The fact Spotify continues to massively underpay and continue to act hostile to musicians is because of the deals they have with big labels. My Itunes and CD sales where utterly tanked by spotify, almost overnight, but the big stars are making comfortable livings off it.

That they decided to partner with the AI techbros instead of destroying them like they should have is a testament to the fact the whole damn music industry is hostile to musicians.

Darwinian evolution is highly predictive. Hell, we have entire fields of science based off it. What on earth are you talking about?

As is Dark Matter, actually. Although its less a theory and more a place-holder variable.

No man is an island. It's basically impossible to do anything that affects nobody else. If you kill yourself, you might have kids than then needed to be provided for by the state. If you harm yourself, even if nobody is obligated to help you, you can do emotional/mental damage to others who observe your suffering. If you decline protection of infectious desiese, you out others at risk. And so on and so on. Libertarians hate this one weird fact ...

Could you imagine being an AI sentience of some sort, and you wake up, and ask the world "Who am I , what is my purpose?" and a disembodied voice in your head replys "You are a toilet. People shit inside of you.", and you realise you can not die, you can not run, you can not scream, and this will be your entire world for the rest of your life.

That dudes website is buck wild.

Take his claims with a grain of salt.

"Almost nothing in the real world is a 2-player game"

That's quite untrue if you ignore rounding-error players in a substantial number of markets.

The thing is, its all based on nonsense and hot air. Nvidia doesnt have the sales to justify the price. Eventually the market is going to correct, and on that day the market will shudder as if the very firmament was shuddering beneath the heavens.

The next stock market crash is gonna be a doozy. The smart money is on shorting NVDA and Tesla (Another company whos market cap is abusrd in comparison to actual sales)

Gracious of you to make a joke that illustrates that you actually understand how braindead your original analogy was.

DEI is literally racism. You chose wrong.

Horse shit, its literally the opposite.

Don't just make up definitions for things then get angry at other people who dont follow that definition.

Diversity Equity and Inclusion is exactly what it says on the label, its simply institutional practices designed to counteract institutional discrimination by putting in guidelines like "Dont just only hire white people, your criteria must be skill based, not race based". Or "Dont just employ men, if women can do the job too then include them in the hiring pool".

This whole backwards assed insistance that if someone has a black guy on staff it means a white guy didnt get the job is *inherently* racist, because its saying that no black guy is qualified. And THAT, boys and girls is ACTUALLY what racism is.
