This idea that "criminal" is some kind of basic aspect of someone's being rather than being a status wholly controlled by the government, who can impose or remove it at will, is mind-boggling. And also probably explains a lot of how conservatives keep finding themselves in the jaws of the leopard.

And having played more LoL than I care to admit in high school, that's some truly vile shit. If only it actually made it through the filters to whoever actually made the relevant choices.
Never thought I'd die fighting alongside a League of Legends fan.
Aye. That I could do.
Particularly hilarious at how thoroughly they're missing the point. The fact that it suggests illegal moves at all means that no matter how good it's openings are the scaling laws and emergent behaviors haven't magicked up an internal model of the game of Chess or even the state of the chess board it's working with. I feel like playing games is a particularly powerful example of this because the game rules provide a very clear structure to model and it's very obvious when that model doesn't exist.
See, you're assuming the goal of moderation is to maintain a healthy social space online. By definition this excludes fascists. It's that old story about how to make sure your punk bar doesn't turn into a nazi punk bar. But what if instead my goal is to keep the peace in my nazi punk bar so that the normies and casuals keep filtering in and out and making me enough money that I can stay in business? Then this strategy makes more sense.
Quick, find the guys who were taping their phones to a ceiling fan and have them get to it!
Jokes aside I'm actually curious to see what happens when this one screws up. My money is on one of the Boston Dynamics dogs running in circles about 30 feet from the intended target without even establishing line of sight. They'll certainly have to test it somehow before it starts autonomously ordering drone strikes on innocent people's homes, right? Right?
In the pseudoarchaeology space you see a lot of equivocation between digital circuit configurations (e.g. the paths on a main board) and the designs of various ancient sites, particularly in Central America. In the crank version this is a sign that the Aztecs had digital technology and computers of some kind. In reality I think it's neat to see the same design patterns crop up for trying to route non-overlapping paths for foot traffic as for routing non-overlapping paths for electrons.
Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
You know, that 30% figure is already enough to make it hard to express the value and power that the 1% control in terms of money - the numbers just don't seem real. In practice they will never face a financial obstacle and can treat money (or their stuff as valued in money) as worth whatever they want it to be at the time.
In that sense the fact that Bitcoin valuations are basically made-up by whales and exchanges is pretty obvious to understand.
There's got to be some kind of licensing clarity that can be actually legislated. This is just straight-up price gouging through obscurantism.
AI finally allowing grooming at scale is the kind of thing I'd expect to be the setup for a joke about Silicon Valley libertarians, not something that's actually happening.
One doesn't invade the largest country in the world. Ask Afghanistan and Finland how resisting a Soviet invasion went. all that land mass only helps if the enemy is trying to capture it.
