Epileptic trace-states can be induced by either  visual or audio clues. While "energy" does enter the body as sound or radiation  fields , no fluid or solid object enters .  OTOH to call sex, gambling or media-exchange addictive is I believe an over-reaching analogy. Learning  age "windows" aside , better associate human excesses in analogy to "runners high".

So true. There's not even a debate to defend  techno-merchant sociopaths. BTW/// I feel empowered to warn TRUMP & His lieutenants  -- being a solid MAGA person myself  -- His support for  AI & Crypto & H1-Bs  is leading the  American nationalist movement into the greatest political collapse since Hoover.

Hundreds-of-thousands of illegals voted in the presidential election TRUMPS lost . Democrats encouraged  those illegal voters and covered for them. Doesn't the term "sanctuary  city/state" sicken your stomach? Quisling is the proper term for "progressive" Democrat politicians and donors ... and they deserve the same fate. Look it up.

No. Humans have no-repeat-no chance of sending a human crew to the stars. Even our own solar-system is so vast  that 100 years from now humans would take another century building a solar-system size gravitational telescope .  FTL travel  can't happen;  period. So-called "generational ships" are fairy-tales. Better to send robots to  Mars & IO than waste human resources better targeted on deep-ocean exploration. When the NEXT SHTF: like asteroid or volcano or plague or sun-spot  ...  those humans surviving will do so at 3000 ft below water  in the Antarctic Sea. If a CCP colony is stuck on the Moon during that  egregious event I wish Them well ...

Comment moon or ocean (Score 1) 165

I do not understand why establishing a "moon-base" is considered practical ( and even desirable ) while building  permanent deep-water  stations  in earth gets no traction. Lots of mineral deposits sit on/under deep-water ocean ... building stations to measure/harvest/process such resources seems OOM easier than riding  explosive rockets to the moon. Say nothing about the long-documented biological damage that moon/space environment enforces thru low gravity and high radiation. Is this true?  We send out human explorers and return freaks of nature. Seems the "high frontier" serves a qualitatively different interest than mere exploration or natural resources.

"... with users panicking that AI-assisted writing will now bear a kind of permanent 'scarlet letter."

That's exactly the idea and exactly the fact. Any use of text-generating/modifying AI constitutes manifest plagiarism  begging for discipline:  ( like that Oxbridge  gent who just shot himself ) . You didn't think theft was free ... did you? Who do you think you are :  Brin or Musk?  Or are you shopping-lifting so much in  a non-prosecuting state that your moral compass always points due-north ?

"The Democrats may be reckless and borderline insufferable but at the end of the day they will do what the voters want."

Traitorous ... not insufferable is the proper term ... worthy of summary punishment. American citizen voters did not want 20-million border-jumping narco-Mex criminals. The Democrats -- lusting for new peon voters at any cost -- pushed thru and encouraged such a ( vote-herding/pop. replacement ) surge. That's why --- despite RepubliFats being generally  amoral scum globalist sociopaths -- MAGA/white-yomanry  still finds THEDONALD preferable.  And are fully prepared to take that preference to-the-line.

"It's all the worst parts of programming and none of the stuff that we actually like." So true  in ways that business hates.  When I started (scientific) programming writing code felt like poetry. By the time I had pointers splashed throughout  I felt like Keats; C became more fun than Bessel functions.
