There is truth to it. A lot of anti slavery but still racist northern whites thought slavery was bad for southern whites. Thought it bred laziness in them and didn't incentivize industrialization.

Funny to imagine all 28 people leaving for work everyday at the exact same time.

Why do “smart” people like trying to connect all the different current news items into one grand narrative. Is he trying to use the political capital generated by opposition to chatgpt for other issues? Chatgpt has less than nothing to do with underpaid home health aids. They don’t even know what it is!

Equity is not a social problem. Do you think African women with five children would rather work 60 hrs a week in a cubicle and have .8 kids like Korean women?

This reads like you ran it through a translator.

Does china strike you as particularly religious? You dont even need IQ tests. Students naturally fall on a distribution if tested. And those students generally test in the same range their whole life.

???? Smarter people require less exposure to the same concept to "get it". You might actually just be lying and there is no reason for me to engage.

By the time you meet kids in CS at good schools they have all been heavily selected. Most kids at michigan or berkeley or wherever were easily top students with minimal effort their whole life. A decent number were genuinely outstanding. Id like to see top programs accept random students and see what happens.

A single international flight literally consumes a swimming pools worth of fuel. a few GPUs is nothing especially as we transition to wind and solar.

Hard to extract wealth. You can prevent Apple from making money off you by not buying their products. Also when you come for others wealth with guns don’t complain when your moral absoluteness generated out of thin air is not received well. Why don’t you demonstrate surpassing selflessness with your own wealth and time first.

Food is more powerful

Probably hard to do without religion. Dont mention europe. They have marginally larger governments.

real estate agents aren't responsible for people overspending. come on

is this an anti-semtitic conspiracy or a possibly more delusional russia disinfo conspiracy.

Talking about animals? That has always been a thing

You are not confused you just do not like it. Hindenburg is well within their first amendment rights. And they are putting their money where their mouth is!

Africa would be much more profitable for America if they developed like Japan and China have. Before colonialism they were a prehistoric continent in many places. It was in many cases evil. But I’d didn’t make them poor or backward

Why does Africa need charity? Many countries didn’t have to beg for a special feel good rate to improve

Both you as a parent and the board had the power to stop children from using social media; or at least severely restrict it. Yet you choose to waste years on a very low probability lawsuit?

At the cost of upside to OTHER people.

Pfizer could fund research for two thousand years at only 10 million a year?

Its a practical not a philosophical discussion. Try driving through the western united states and see if a lack of land is a real issue.

In Texas I’ve been without power for a total of three days in last 15 years and that was a once in a century event

Impressive the chatgpt could understand that backspace problem. I’m drooling on myself trying to understand it.

How many neighborhoods have you been in that look like a post apocalyptic waste land?

I have to imagine a neighborhood full of lawns like this might have some downsides. Not to mention the property values. Plenty of rural places you can do this.

support for gay marriage has increased massively over my lifetime.

Seems like a somewhat universal phenomenon.
