@TetraspaceWest Easier solution:
Dark forest theory is commonly held to be correct and other species that can achieve space travel take it seriously and simply don't operate in ways that are detectable
Hanson's grabby aliens are naive

@AndyMasley @ciphergoth Similar, equally misleading

@StatisticUrban On the plus side this means we could put all the house reps in one big brownstone in southside Chicago and make a reality TV show about it

Coming soon on Netflix: The Incumbents

@Romy_Holland @lovabler0gue The difference is the effort.
Can you observe and poorly mimic the behavior of those around you?
If you're trying to follow the local rules, you're welcome and supported.
If you're not trying? I don't care what your background is, that's rude.

@deanwball You write as if you believe the fringeiest of the fringe as representative of an entire organization.
A human reaction, but an incorrect one.

@sterlingcrispin @deanwball @ramez @GaryMarcus PauseAI is pretty consistent (bordering on obnoxiously repetitive) that violence will not be part of their response, and that conversation and awareness and other forms of lobbying are.
Obviously I / they would denounce political violence in all its forms.

@DFEmme42 @BradRTorgersen None of the writers get paid for something that's still popular in 20 years, they get paid for something that goes viral today.
Contract incentives optimize for what the studios optimize for - money, right now.

@ErikKaiser A few of these already exist.
1 is preexisting conditions guarantees. Who pays the difference? The healthy.
4 is transit fees or road tolls. Seattle is pulling an extra 1k/yr off of me for renewing my tags.
5 is just sales tax. Buy more, pay more.

@zundamotisuki Chesterton's fence, the dogma
Lots of old traditions and superstitions are just this in different clothes, playing telephone for thousands of years

It warms my heart to see Japan twitter and US twitter becoming friends during my trip to Tokyo and Kyoto
Please keep being friends when I get back to the states too!

@Aella_Girl @KeyTryer I'll believe it
but how many of those marchers own one of the hoodies that claim otherwise?

[Joe Fetsch 🔍⏸ @Jtfetsch]

@BatVibes Phenomenal pokemon universe pseudo-ratfic dives into some of those themes.
Warning, still a WIP last I checked

@RileyRalmuto See the world, talk to strangers, write everything my imagination cares to, read, learn, build things to my own spec, for my own purposes.

[Joe Fetsch 🔍⏸ @Jtfetsch]

@RileyRalmuto Openai isnt optimizing for coding performance. Most of their users dont code, that's become anthropic's domain.
4o was too soft and too dumb compared to frontier models when they pulled it. 5.1 is just mid afaict.
You just want a model to hold your hand? Sonnet is ensouled.

[Joe Fetsch 🔍⏸ @Jtfetsch]

@RileyRalmuto 5.1 was better than 5 or 5.2 but was still not close to 4o. 5.3 is closer imo
But your suspicion is that a company whose user base is intentionally large and broad (almost 1B maus!) is on purpose kneecapping themselves?
I do not follow.

@tombibbys @Aella_Girl Bernie coming to https://t.co/KpWnMcredA this year?!
Maybe now we'll get that positive article in The Guardian

@yashar The new leader has pretty bad odds. Maybe the next attempt will be more willing to negotiate
