Keep in mind he is literally a child of the unprivileged commoners, so poking at his origins or genetics is not “punching up”. His mom is from a lower class family with drug and alcohol abuse problems, and she had him before meeting the prince.

Just poke at his personality or actions. There’s plenty there.

Let me guess: There are ways for Google’s scraping, search engine, and AI model training to bypass this.

With that level of indirection gymnastics, you can accuse anyone of anything.

(This comment written in the language of a brutally colonizing and genocidal empire.)

Yeah but they don’t have to also inhale his farts.

A family member with no inherent moral compass or empathy, whose eyes, ears, thoughts and agency belong to teams of trained profit-seekers in a different country.

I disapprove of this humanization of software.

It got more legal a few years ago, I think. Not explicitly “made legal”, but the legal foundations have been eroded. I.e. if you can expect to get away with something it is legal in a very real sense.

It’s always been practically legal for empires like the US, Russia, China to commit any atrocities in weak countries, More and more countries are seeing how much they can get away with.

Netanyahu tested the limits over and over and saw there were really quite few legal limits. With Gaza, he saw the limits didn’t actually exist at all.

During the invasion of Berlin in 1945, the overwhelmed German command trying to map out the Russian advance had to resort to just calling businesses or homes of people living in areas they were uncertain about.

If most people in a district did not pick up the phone, or someone did pick up and swore in Russian, they marked it on the map as invaded.

Different worlds of course, but the point is that civilian phones have intelligence value.

It could make sense as a super creepy tactical choice by Iran to deny intelligence gathering from abroad.

I feel that this article is based on beliefs that are optimism rather than empiricism or rational extrapolation, and trains of thought driven way into highly simplified territory.

Basically like the Lesswrong, self-proclaimed “longtermists” and Zizians crowds.

Illustrative example: Categorizing nannies under “human touch strongly preferred - perhaps as a luxury”. This assumes automation is not only possible to a degree way beyond what we see signs of, but that the service itself isn’t inherently human.

Guess the “Free Speech Absolutist” in charge of Twitter was too busy heiling hitler to step in huh.

This is what I have been hoping LLMs would provoke since the beginning.

Testing understanding via asking students to parrot textbooks with changed wording was always a shitty method, and one that de-incentivizes deep learning:

It allows for teachers that do not understand their field beyond a superficial level to teach, and to evaluate. What happens when a student given the test question “Give an intuitive description of an orbit in your own words” answers by describing orbital mechanics in a relative frame instead of a global frame, when the textbook only mentions global frame? They demonstrate understanding beyond the material which is excellent but all they do is risk being marked down by a teacher who can’t see the connection.

A student who only memorized the words and has the ability to rearrange them a bit, gets full marks no risk.

This comment is uninformed and I appreciate any corrections or education:

I thought Iran already had nukes, so the attack made no sense: Attacks on nuclear weapons facilities are prettly much “launch nukes” in any nuclear doctrine in any nuclear country.

But apparently they have just been working on them, and are allegedly a few weeks off from making their first?

It still seems like a suicidal move. Attacks on production typically slows or delays, but won’t delete or reverse anything. Iran hurrying up the programme and going on full nuke alert ready to fire if a bird in the sky twitches wrong seems like a very possible outcome.

Remember media bubbles are different in different countries.

The nordic media are pretty intensely hostile to Israel already and have been for years.

Harming a famous swede on a clear peaceful mission would go nuclear.

I wish we’d stop allowing them to be referred to as “rubber bullets”, which sounds sorta safe.

These things are metal slugs that break bones and rupture organs. They can crush your skull and kill you outright:

He will forget by tomorrow.

Lack of official support for a lot of devices does not make it “not released”.

I can get it right now and install it on an AMD 'puter. I expect to manually install some drivers at least to get it fully working, but since the base OS is Arch, that’s pretty explored territory.

They are “fucking with” NATO, historically, but not attack. Lots of “im not touching you im not touching you” on the borders and north sea. Military submarines where they are not supposed to be. Sudden declarations of artillery practice in international waters causing ship travel to reroute, then not actually doing practice…

Nuclear is less expensive and more scalable than solar, wind, hydro.

It does not boil the planet like fossil fuels.

Yes it takes time and money to set up, but that’s a short term cost.

This is assumed to be widely known, so critical questions that don’t take that into account are assumed to be either in bad faith or laziness.

“Thorny problem of waste disposal” is such a shitty phrase. The alternatives of coal and oil have more damaging waste disposed straight out into the atmosphere. We just don’t demand shit from those industries, while nuclear needs to be beyond perfect to be an alternative.

Remember that we are not players in Web3 games. We are mobs to be farmed.

“Web3 Gaming” is gaming played by speculators and investors.

The products they create are disposable tools used to manipulate and farm regular gamers for cash.
