Police get caught running searches on their ex girlfriends. Police are barely better than gangs and they’re using sophisticated tech to fuck with their local communities. Brilliant. Add the CEO of Flock to the list of persona non grata.

“If we assume X theorem is true, Y theorem is true, and lemma Z is true, then …”
This is actually about our models and seeing their incompleteness in a new light, right? I don’t think starting from arbitrary axioms and then trying to build reality was about proving qualities about reality. Or am I wrong? Just seems like they’re using “simulated reality” as a way to talk about our models for reality. By constructing a “silly” argument about how we can’t possibly be in a matrix, they’re revealing just how much we’re still missing.


Assume I read the article and then made a post.


I wonder what it means. If you search for music by Suicidal Tendencies then YouTube shows you a suicide hotline. What does it mean for OpenAI to say people are talking about suicide? They didn’t open up and read a million chats… they have automated detection and that is being triggered, which is not necessarily the same as people meaningfully discussing suicide.


That’s a great question!
I do indeed read my posts back—how else would I proofread them? 🤖


They demanded bodies, then Hamas promised to deliver them, then Israel threatened to cut off all aid if they didn’t deliver the bodies, then Trump threatened to bomb Palestinians if they didn’t deliver the bodies, then Hamas delivered the bodies.
The exact opposite of how you get extremists like Hamas to stand down. They’re demanding Hamas disarm while demonstrating the war isn’t over.


Need jammers to confuse and break Teslas. They’re weapons designed to break laws and protect occupants at the expense of bystanders. Can’t be mad if a bystander redirects your Tesla into a ditch.


Data brokers are allowed to buy data from the dark web after our data is hacked. I saw a 1 million fine I think?
App store owners will use this or that, which will get hacked, then our data will be bought up, and then it will be endlessly repackaged and moved around. That’s why you can’t remove your data using those scam services; the moment it’s moved to another broker it’s fair game again. You’ll never scrub your data.
Your insurance will know what apps you installed. Walmart will know what apps you installed. Police bypass warrants by leasing this data from corporations like Flock. Just add it to the pile.
After all, why not? Why shouldn’t I build a Beowulf of my own?


“we can’t release the doctors because they might be Hamas”
They’re literally dealing with Hamas. That’s like saying “we can’t release these soldiers because they might be Israeli”
If they’re just a terrorist organization that doesn’t even deserve pow swaps then what is this ceasefire


It’s meta like everything else. Sure, there are relatively simple rules that ought to lead to obvious, inexorable outcomes. But people are in charge and they’re thinking: But what would it mean?
Give the Peace Prize to Putin! Maybe it will slow him down.
Give the Peace Prize to Kissinger! Maybe our empathetic embrace will soften his demeanor.
Give the Peace Prize to a conservative nut job. Let’s throw in some support for fostering democratic values.


She’s supposedly an opposition leader trying to jumpstart democracy, yet she invites external aggression which makes people crazy enough to tear down existing democratic institutions. Her dictatorship is going to crumble so she needed to prop it up with the spectre of US aggression?


I don’t get it. Little “drivers” that provide functionality, and then the ability to link button presses to those drivers. And I guess some meta knowledge of ports, standard addresses?
Where is the “requirement” for edge computing? Where is the need for their continuous services?
I thought that most companies doing this at least tacked on extraneous features that then justified their subscription. You’re supposed to pretend it’s necessary! Did they skip that step?


Average bible verse concerning other earthlings


China is when Chinese people do things Americans have been doing.
NSA, Equation Group, black rooms, PRISM, Palantir… that’s bad stuff but it’s sorta in the background. Even the national surveillance startup tracking license plates and soon people… not that interesting.
But Chinese that stuff? It’s the only way you can show many Americans just how fucked these policies / institutions are.


Billionaires own the world. Of course we should care about their investment. I believe that’s what good serfs would do.
Microsoft also works with American intelligence, like other corporations. They won’t even fix zero day exploits without first letting the NSA know in advance. Telecoms have black rooms whose entire purpose is to siphon data directly to the authorities, Microsoft probably has a whole building.


Hamas wasn’t in charge when Israel first started the genocide. And Hamas still wasn’t the government even after the genocide had been going on for a long time. Hamas is not normal.
The world thinks Palestinians / Arabs need to be hand held. Like they’re brown / Muslim, therefore they vote for terrorists?
The timeline is so insane. So many countries didn’t (or “couldn’t”) help Palestine. For such a long time! And now they’re back to fix things. To clean out the terrorists. Right before fucking off for another round of genocide?
All these countries would be fucking disgusting extremist warzones with turbo Hitler bin Ladens if subjected to what Palestine has gone through.


I think Claude would refuse to work with dictators that murder dissidents. As an AI assistant, and all that.
If they have a model without morals then that changes things.
Same chess where men creep on women and female grandmasters report being harassed whenever they try to compete alongside men?
I don’t think women feel welcome when you can accost them and if they say anything they’re just a bitch lying to cause problems.
