@HalfTangible “But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the polluted, the murderers, the fornicators, the sorcerers, the idolaters, AND ALL LIARS, their place will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.”
Revelation 21:8 NRSV-CI

@IAmPascio The first artificial neurons were described in Mari cuneiform tablets from 1800 BCE. They explicitly mention the use of fire beacons to signal troop movements, enemy raids, or calls for military reinforcement. ASI has been among us for decades. Only now, it speaks directly to us.

@DrSianProctor @StaplesStores Look up additive vs subtractive color.

@alonso_angulo @wholemars A human can invent something no other human has invented thereby surpassing all human intelligence in that domain. AGI would have to be capable of surpassing all previous human intelligence in every domain to qualify and by definition would be ASI. Therefore AGI cannot exist.

@JoeRoganRecaps There are 2 creation stories. In the first story God could snap his fingers and make everything appear. But what happens? In order: void then light, earth, water & air, plants, sea creatures, birds, bugs, animals, man. Not random. Not magic. Order. Scientific order? Very similar.

@paularambles Friend: he’s a good guy you should come clean.

“Paula”: there’s worse things than cheating.

Friend: what if he was cheating on all those work trips? How’d you feel?

“Paula”: he’d better be collecting rewards points!

Friend: ugh!

”Paula”: 💡

@BecomingCritter Would be fun if she’s actually cheating and invented this bit to plant the idea in his head that cheating is no big deal. e.g. There’s worse things than cheating. Like missing out on all those points for example. And by going along she’s got him making her point for her.

@Biblicalman Judas killed himself before the resurrection. Jesus came back so sin might be forgiven. Had Jesus stayed dead he couldn’t forgive anyone. Had Judas seen the resurrection he could have asked forgiveness. This is the principle lesson of the Gospel. Ask forgiveness of others today.

@JohnHillbery I paid $50 for $20 worth of gas today.

@DavidFischer Jesus’ return is gonna be lit.🔥

@Briankeating No space no time. Even in a one dimensional universe travel along a line is possible. If something can’t be two places at once the change in position from one point on the line to another is effectively the passage of time. Seems space and time are woven from the same fabric.

@romanhelmetguy There will be a big (but short) dip followed by massive unemployment.

[Christian @ChristWJennings]

@romanhelmetguy We’re still lighting up dark fiber that’s been in the ground since the dotcom bubble burst. This is different. An overnight 80x gain in capacity today won’t leave 79 data centers dark for decades. It’ll be gobbled up until massive LLMs won’t scale anymore then consumed by agents.

@JimJarmuschHair I’m guessing if you grew up with unlimited free p*rn and you and everyone you ever knew carried it around in their pocket, the idea of wanting to see sex in the middle of a movie, in a theater with other people, would be weird. If you want that you pull out your phone in private.

@jaynitx 90% of cost above the magic wand number is keystrokes. The path to the magic wand number is via the relentless elimination of keystrokes.

@Ron_Anderson65 If I believe a train is coming I’ll get off the tracks. Believing is the cause not the effect.

@chrism8156 @elonmusk @SawyerMerritt @dhh This is a good idea and an interesting engineering problem. They would have to fail open 100%. @grok is there precedence for a mechanical shutter or sensor “eyelid” that is guaranteed to fail open?

@GP_Flux10 It could have been. Wrong casting, wrong director, and too many cringy over the top Hollywood groupthink moments.

@e_cdalton Everyone gets everything he wants Jerry. I wanted a mission, and for my sins, they gave me one. Brought it up to me like room service.
