Tent camping on the college quad with a bunch of friends sounds really fun and I feel like this is a major factor for what's going on.
@MaxCRoser @HumanProgress How the media covered the good news.
@eigenrobot btw this is Sacha Baron Cohen's brother (Borat guy). he's done other research on "interest in people vs things" in day-old infants, illustrating male vs female innate differences.
ok guys time for all of us to mask off
Once again, I’ve been told by Columbia pro-Palestine campers not to film them:
Righties want woke to mean anything on the left so they can slam moderate Democrats for being too woke. Lefties want woke to mean whatever is far left at any specific moment in history so they can place themselves on the frontier of social progress.
@ZaidJilani Woke, the way he uses the word, is a specific brand of current social justice politics, not whatever happens to be far left at any moment in history.

Inquiring minds would like to know!
Over the last 300 years how accepting of civilian casualties have people been during war?
Just add a few AI apps to this (for autonomous navigation, face recognition, vehicle recognition, house recognition, etc), and psychopaths & terrorists will have fully autonomous arson-bots and death-by-fire slaughterbots. Call me a Luddite, but this seems like a bad idea.
NEW: Throwflame unveils robot dog Thermonator — with flamethrower attached — The Ohio-based firm have announced the $9,420 bot is available for purchase by the general public and government agencies for the first time.
Why do so many smart, privileged, healthy people hate our world so much? Why are they so eager to gamble it or surrender it to ASI? Even my allies constantly talk about how “inadequate” and “insane” it is. I’ve suffered plenty in it, but I love the world and I want to protect it
@MetaLevelUp Which is definitely not great. But OP says "dire implications for our civilization" which . . . future logistical challenges just don't seem to qualify as?
This was fun! Thanks for having me :)

My most reactionary (?) take is that people who lower the trust in high trust societies should not exist there
bitch got the poor guy fired. i don't know what kind of visa he has, but high chances he gets deported if he's unable to find a job soon. imagine getting your life ruined because you wanted to help other indian immigrants with groceries.
