@peteoxenham Bingo. "Our models are so good it will usher in the apocalypse" is more powerful than "35% improvement on Benchmark-XPQ." The masses are so default luditetological that they'll run with the evil narrative... which is just a bonus for the corpo hegemony in more ways than one.
@emm0sh Wow thanks for posting. Crazy how Gabe was talking about prediction markets here 7 years before poly market! Also didn’t know he was into cnc machining lol
@falkrak Easy answer: Do drugs, temporarily -50 IQ debuff so you can socialize... but only from time to time. Hard answer: Get a dog and realize that you not getting along with others is a skill issue
@BennyRocinante@MarcusDAurelius@SCHIZO_FREQ OK. Thank you for your service, and your input. I get that a lot, people shouldn't want to kill themselves, but unfortunately it happens and it's increasing.
Also no malice in my heart, thank you for being civil. I just want to save lives (tens of thousands per year), is all.
@BennyRocinante@MarcusDAurelius@SCHIZO_FREQ By the way I don't blame you, most people react your way. It's why gun companies don't market their guns as the best way to kill yourself, which would be honest marketing. I'm the one person trying to make a safer gun and people are triggered - pun intended
@BennyRocinante@MarcusDAurelius@SCHIZO_FREQ By your logic there should be no suicide nets. Tear them down and station therapists there! I say keep the nets.
You should be ashamed because of your Ludism. You are bigoted against me, a technologist, trying to save lives. Shouldn't you be writing me a letter by candle-light?
@BennyRocinante@SCHIZO_FREQ I mean I have a youtube video from years ago where I gave a robot a knife. It's a good idea to give it a sword, I'll probably do that too. Sounds fun
@BennyRocinante@MarcusDAurelius@SCHIZO_FREQ What? ~10% of gun homicides are lethal, and it's ~90% of gun suicides. Obviously people are bad at shooting people other than themselves, which I'm trying to fix. You are in denial because you are a LUDDITE. You HATE technology, go back to carrier pigeons please
