A panopticon casino-gulag.

Spengler talked about the total decay of morals and ethics and the death of the West more than 100 years ago, and he was later called reactionary by many. When even parents have totally abdicated from the sacred duty of raising a child, we know he has been right all along.

Let it be capped then.

4G just works.

Making it opt-out instead of opt-in is shitty. Here's a better idea: don't disrespect the hackernews users in the first place.

Advertising should be banned. It's an attack on the mind.

Another one bites the dust (gets AI psychosis).

Requiem for photographic evidence.

If you buy one of the Motorola Grapheneos phones, you're gonna be marked. You will stand out in the crowd. It has happened before and will happen more frequently as the world becomes more authoritarian.

It's a big club, and you ain't in it!

I feel obligated to post this very cool FSF Car right-to-repair video https://www.fsf.org/videos/fight-to-repair/

We really do live in the post-truth age.

> Paper books are just decaying bundles of plant fiber — and the ideas within them are likewise ephemeral.

We still have 1000 year old codex in quite good conditions. A paper book will still be readable 500 and 1000 years into the future, if properly stored. A digital file will be effectively lost in decades, if not mere years.

The underlying structure of language, which is grammar, is obviously logical. That the symbols used to represent this grammar can be sometimes fuzzy or ambiguous, is no problem for a machine that takes context and probability into account when translating words to the underlying grammar structure.

There is no intelligence. If anything, this just shows that natural language and mathematics are both fields which are structured in a logically computable way. And if you have a machine that can compute symbolic logic, you can process both natural language and mathematics.

A second corollary is that rational consciousness and thought is less likely to be contained in language than previously thought, because if language is so simple that a machine can process it, it can't contain consciousness.

I think they deserve, by Justice, to have their models pillaged and raped, just like they did to the internet. They didn't ask for permission when they took the entire of the internet, after all, and given their behaviour is nefarious, it's of Justice that they receive nefarious treatment by others, including chinese AI labs.

The Chinese are not gonna deterred, but the posturing by the Americans is so blatantly hypocritical that everybody is cheering for their demise. See, for example, one of Francis Fukuyama's latests videos on youtube.

Bravo for Andrew! We need strong leaders, not weak ones.

> it might awaken people that might've overlooked the structural failures of the EU and finally radicalise them

Haha, no. As long as there is bread and circus, nothing wil happen.

Gotta pump the hype for the IPO scam. Generational bagholders are being created at this very moment.

It's because the massess are cattle themselves.

Our grandparents were right, and right to say this.

> But there's a good chunk of the class who don't listen to reason. I haven't figured it out yet. They know, logically, they can't pass an interview, but that's apparently a "tomorrow" problem.

These people should be doing manual work, not intellectual work. There is no shortage of manual work available.

Public companies only bring ruin.

> "Most people default to automating tasks they dislike rather than tasks most valuable to the company," Sophia Velastegui, CEO of Velastegui Ventures and former chief AI officer at Microsoft, told Axios. Instead, they should focus on using AI to drive revenue.

That's right! Work, slave, pain away every day! How dare you make your life a bit less miserable?!

You lived all your life without these evil companies. Life will go on when they are banished. I don't think you will miss "unusually high quality predictions" after a week.

For many queries it does not matter.

The medium is the message. AI text is a bad message for me.

There is a way to see old results, by adding "before:2023" to the search query.

Block the entire AI response. It's not a good thing. It tells you whatever google wants you to see. It's an incredibly powerful brainwashing tool.

Cattle can't choose how to be slaughtered, though.
