In the time it took you to find this one demonstration with honestly not that many participant, all of whom young students, cited from inside a twitter thread full of bad faith arguments, we’ve had Benjamin Netanyahu himself use this phrase to mean total Israel control (which at best means colonization or apartheid, or worst genocide against arabs).

The difference here is that those are all pretty young students, and have no control over any policy, while Netanyahu is the Prime minister of a country at trial for Genocide.

And while this variation of the phrase is definitely nationalistic, in the context of Palestine being colonized by a non-arab population it is probably more in line with “Colonizers go home” as opposed “No Jews allowed”, after all there are Jewish Arabs too.

And finally these very same protesters were sprayed with skunk water at the very same demonstration[1]. That really shows how the powerdynamic actually aligns and who is actually at risk.

As i read the story, the father was trying to put the baby back in the car; stepped on the wire, and fell over, dropping the kid. Others then stepped in without thought to try to get the kid away from the live wires and fell to the same cause.

Regrettable, but understandable. "Kid in danger: try to save it!" is a near reflex, certainly not a considered thoughtful action.

The victims meant well. "Can't fault someone for trying their best, even if their efforts are ineffective," right?
The body will get used to it, the effect will wane unless the dosage is increased, and before you know it you cannot function without the stimulant.

You can replace 'stimulants' with 'alcohol' in the quote above and it will still be true.
Actually from Starcraft, it's the Korean way to say hahaha (kekeke).
Maybe, but we can at least start with the more fundamental resources that have to be shared amongst people and are in limited quantities, such as land.

Driving giant pickup trucks for no productive reason also uses up a societal resource, and increases societal risks, so I would not mind seeing extra taxes on those compared to more reasonable methods of transport, and a case could be easily made that all personal vehicles should be taxed much higher to incentivize public transit construction and use.

Society is not losing out much if you don’t use your ski boots since college, but maybe society does benefit if you consume less throwaway things, so a generally increased tax on consumption, perhaps based on mass and distance (since more mass moved further distances takes more energy to move) might work. Easiest way to do this is simply 10x tax on fossil fuels, it will flow down to everything.

Tax things you don’t want. Taxing the result of productive work (income) is disincentivizing something we do want. We want people working hard and striving to do the difficult tasks that are in short supply of expertise (and higher income).
Thanks, that all makes sense. Do you follow Sean Carroll's takes on many worlds? A very consistent philosophy of reality, and some interesting math starting to come out with space-time itself being an emergent feature of Hilbert space evolution of the wave equation (where it is constructed essentially out of varying degrees of coupling between different states). Even a paper where this sort of coupling-derived space might obey the Einstein equations.
> No, you’re assuming a counterfactual.

I'm not assuming anything. I'm following the science as reported in the article above. That in FACT a virus lead to an important part of human development. And was in FACT beneficial. Those are true facts, if you trust the science.

> If the virus hadn’t come along, humanity as it stands today may not exist but whatever animal was infected could potentially have kept reproducing / another virus would accomplish what happened anyway. Those are far more likely scenarios.

You literally immediately launched into assuming a counterfactual (that didn't happen, you just made it up).

> You’re taking an impossible to prove hypothetical that would require omniscient level reasoning

Yes, and I made it clear that's what I was doing. And I explicitly said it was
an imaginary situation that would never happen. I was using it for
illustrative purposes for people who are flexible enough in their thinking.

>but since non Japanese streaming platforms want to constantly expand their business no matter what

This exact same conversation was happening on anime forum boards 20-30 years ago before Japanese streaming platforms knew they were people interested in watching their content overseas. There are gigabytes of forum posts of_fan produced content_ arguing over whether honorifics should be included, if puns should be explained with a "TL note", references to japanese history, etc.

Fansubs ultimately ended up on coalescing on what official subs do today (before official subs even existed), so I don't believe they are doing it because of corporate greed. People prefer somewhat localized content. Fan subs killed most honorifics and translation notes before anyone made a dime doing so.

Companies announcing that they’re not going to do work, and actively doing work to hamper said platform (e.g. Netflix disabling the iPad app from working on the VisionPro) sure comes across that way.
What the woman did was definitely brave, but I'm not yet convinced it was smart or necessary. The article gives her credit for "saving" the kid, but it also sounds like the baby was essentially unharmed and would have been fine laying in the father's arms for another 5-10 minutes until the power was shut off and rescuers arrived.

In no way do I want to discourage people from heroically risking their own safety to save others, but I do think there's a difference between doing so when things are urgent and doing so when the situation is stable and help is on the way. This specific situation seems to be in the latter bucket, unless there's more information not in the article.
It would be helpful to link to a specific thread or an FAQ page for the subreddit instead of vaguely suggesting to search its archive or create a new thread.
> They were moving nuclear weapons into Cuba.

For the record, the US had put nukes in Turkey before the USSR put them in Cuba. The crisis was resolved by removing them from both, but only the withdrawal from Cuba was publicized.

Of course, the other stuff you said was accurate. This isn't (…or wasn't) the Cold War, nor was Russia's oppression of Eastern Europe okay during the Cold War either.

Legal fiction is a technical term used by legal scholars. To be clear, any legal system is built from legal constructs; I'm not talking about these. A legal fiction has a markedly different meaning than lie as used in the comment two levels above (which seems to me more like a rant than a clear or convincing argument) Are you familiar with specific expert writings about claimed legal fictions in U.S. copyright law?

Do you know how many billions of dollars worth of platinum group elements (platinum; Pt, palladium; Pd and rhodium; Rh) are literally lying on the roads and roadsides of G20 countries?

As dust from in use catalytic converters it's substantial. And unrecovered.

There's a problem with economic feasibilty - extraction costs (digging up and processing every road surface and road side) are prohibitive - greater than the value of the material.

The advance is still not likely cheap enough to compete with mining lithium on land,

In a nutshell this is still very much the issue with mining seawater for Lithium, Uranium, etc.

The 0.2 parts per million (PPM) is a problem, a literal ceiling on diminishing returns, the more you extract the less remains and it's tricky to keep processed seawater from mixing back with unprocessed.

TFA is explicitely in regards to how chats can be reported, and forwarded to reviewers that work for Meta. E2EE means Meta can't review the messages on their own, but there's no protection for one user in the chat reporting it, at which point the app automatically flags and forwards the messages in question.

> WhatsApp messages are so secure, [Zuckerburg] said, that nobody else — not even the company — can read a word.

> WhatsApp emphasizes this point so consistently that a flag with a similar assurance automatically appears on-screen before users send messages: “No one outside of this chat, not even WhatsApp, can read or listen to them.”

> these hourly workers use special Facebook software to sift through millions of private messages, images and videos.

> The workers have access to only a subset of WhatsApp messages — those flagged by users and automatically forwarded to the company as possibly abusive
Actively promising outcomes that push equipment to the brink of failure would be malpractice and the planners would deservedly be fired.

These are novel and truly unprecedented space missions. There may yet be a future in which we can confidently predict outcomes at scale, but we are not there yet. Being conservative in assumptions is a virtue, and hopefully is emulated in every future mission.
Google didn’t saw a way to monetize the technology within their existing very profitable business model.

So if you fail to reproduce you will break that billion year old chain of evolutionary success.

True to an extent. What you really break in this case is the last inch change that your parents happened to merge in. Your extended families are still there with almost the same genotype.
Everything old is new again. It's the same thing with any DRM that happens on the client side. As long as it's viewable by humans, someone will figure out a way to feed that into a machine.
We don't have any proof to suggest that "intelligence" grants a fundamental understanding of everything though. It can help us understand "things", do neat stuff, and build models to explain the working and structure of phenomena; However would having an IQ of 5000 mean you are now "God" or gain and understanding of everything including the mystery of existence itself?

At some point, it seems important to stop trying to understand the world through ideas and concepts and just experience it.

I really think there are more religious like beliefs on the pro AGI camp than the other way around, think about what AI promises to deliver by "visionaries" like Hinton and Kurzweil:

* Immortality.

* Resurrections.

* Nirvana / Heaven / Utopia.

For all we know, we create an AGI who becomes amused with fucking itself, or develops new games it finds interesting and spends all eternity playing them. Humans have a belief that we're going to create "god" as we think of "him". All seeing, all knowing, all powerful. It does get a bit ridiculous at times.

I sympathize a lot wit the parents view personally.
Who said anything about thinking for itself?

A thing does not require intent or consciousness to be dangerous. How many chemists have blown themselves up because they didn't realize an experiment was dangerous? How many production systems have crashed because the developer didn't accurately predict what the code they wrote will do?

Alkali metals and C++ code do not require ill intent, but they will still obliterate your limbs / revenue if you build and use them wrong.

One of my more tangible hypotheses is a sort of runaway effect. Economic, geopolitical, and military competitive pressures will quickly push out anyone and anything that still relies on last era human-in-the-loop processes, the same way any organization that doesn't utilize artificial lighting, electricity, and instant communication will obviously be left far behind. You have to just trust that the machine running stock market transactions will do its math right.

But unlike transaction software failure modes, which quickly result in outright crashes or verifiably incorrect errors, failure modes of non-bayesian decision making software probably looks something like what happens when existing economic, geopolitical, and military decision-makers make decisions that are harmful, unethical, or otherwise undesirable for humanity. This time augmented with, if not superhuman intelligence, at least superhuman speed and superhuman knowledge breadth.

It is just moving the complexity around.

In the old BIOS + ACPI days, the OS carries hardware specific hacks. These hack were buggy and hard to keep to day.

We (the community as a whole) decided it is better leave the hardware specific hacks to the hardware, UEFI was supposed to provide enough abstraction for all we need.

The result is, of course, the hacks with all its bugs are moved to the firmware.

Have we considered the possibility that it might be energy? I heard sometimes you might think something is mass but actually it's energy.
The OP was making an observation. But I'll bite.

First, human beings are not bees or ants. Our nature vis-a-vis reproduction is quite different. Most human beings do reproduce as that is our nature, or certainly most of us used to with the exception of periods of social collapse (think of Rome). We're in that sort of condition now, where we are having little or no children in the developed world. This does not bode well and at some point the decline of such a society will become irreversible.

Of course, you are right that not everyone must reproduce, that there is no particular obligation for anyone to reproduce, and that those who do not can still contribute to the well-being of their families, the human species, and the common good. And indeed, if you are, say, a Catholic, you would say that while having children is the natural course and the normal path for most people, a small minority are called to sacrifice this natural end for the sake of a higher supernatural, spiritual end, e.g., the priesthood, by which one becomes a spiritual parent in place of a biological one. Certainly, we can be parental figures in non-biological ways as well. Even biological parents do that.

But that's not that we're seeing behind the present demographic decline. Something like the priesthood is an exception, not the rule. Most who can have children of their own are not having them, or many of them, not because of some kind of exceptional higher calling, but rather for morally dubious reasons. Children are demanding. They require sacrifice. They demand the love known as charity. A consumerist is going to view a child not as a gift, but a burden. Furthermore, our society demonizes families, especially large families (perhaps in part stemming from Protestant attempts to restrict Catholic populations in the US). Having many children used to be seen as a blessing, a privilege. Today, we both think we're entitled to having children (IVF is a testament to that), and refuse to have them.
The challenge at the moment is to get Speaker Johnson to put it on the floor and give him confidence that he has the votes. Critical that everyone contacts their Representative next week to ask them to ask leadership to do so, especially if their Representative is a Republican.

Exactly. Artists should drop the pretentious philosophical bumbling and accept what this is, a fight for their livelihood. Which is, in every sense, completely warranted and good.

Putting blame on the technology and trying to limit public access to software will not go anywhere. Your fight for regulation needs to be with publishers and producers, not with the teen trying to make a cool new wallpaper or the office-man trying to make an aesthetic powerpoint presentation.

Graeber suggests that Iraq was invaded soon after it started selling oil for euros instead of dollars.

Although it isn't so clean-cut with non-humans using instinct and humans needing learning. Many animals meed to learn how to hunt from their mothers, for example, and many birds don't know their songs instinctively but need to be taught too. And humans aren't entirely instinct-free even if we have an extremely long (even adjusted for our long lifespans) childhood where we need to learn things.
We know many many aspects of skin aging aren’t due to microbiome changes: UV exposure breaks down elastin fibers and disrupts the collagen network; fibroblasts are known to have age related changes; fat layers below the dermis thin with age; skin becomes less oily and thus more prone to dehydration. These independent aging factors would change the environment microbes inhabit and thus very likely have causative effects on the microbiome overall.

One might argue that a changing microbiome could in turn have second order deleterious effects on the skin. I suspect this could be a reason L’Oreal is sponsoring the research. But this is speculative at this point, and a quick read of the Abstract and Discussion didn’t reveal any such findings.
Yeah… that’s why this is still far from a guarantee, even though it’s a very positive development. This could very well still fall apart like last time.
