@paulg 5 - 2 = 3 > 1.6

@OwenGregorian Coders code a way to make coding faster... not a tipping point, someone still has to tell the computer what to do. Similar jump from Machine Language to Object Oriented Languages imho.

@AlexFinn Technopriest, where is your salvation?

[David Vogel @dnvogel]

@AlexFinn Descent into madness. Every. Time.

[David Vogel @dnvogel]

We are soooo cooked.

[David Vogel @dnvogel]

@Cernovich Gotta prompt one to wake up at 3am and share one random item from the Summa Theologica. Should be interesting.

[David Vogel @dnvogel]

@Andercot What else would you expect to see as you zoom in though? A television holds a moving image from the couch. At nose length it's "just" led dots? Where then, is the locus of us? Does the nanotech predate or does the image?

[David Vogel @dnvogel]

@Cernovich I can already feel the locus of my agency shift from between my eyes in my skull to space between me and the screen when in dialog with LMs.

We're there now.

@PageauJonathan Christ knew the cup meant crucifixion and He drank it because it was God's will.

Only Tom Bombadil could hold the Ring by not desiring it.

@ScottAdamsSays stumbled into the simultaneous sip, launching a community in his wake! Glad he accepted Jesus Christ as Lord.

[David Vogel @dnvogel]

@PageauJonathan We shouldn’t want to ask whom the Grail serves. Only Christ could understand that answer without being destroyed.

[David Vogel @dnvogel]

@BretWeinstein @PageauJonathan You two should go camping over a three day weekend with your brothers and limit your discussions to time around the fire.

The rest of us probably don't deserve the outcome.

If I was moderating, I'd try to corale all of you around ontological mathematics of agency.

@ItIsHoeMath Saying something makes it more true UNLESS it moves the wrong way:

Top-down + ordered → truth descends (governs).
Bottom-up + ordered → truth re-members (good rebellion, heals).
Top-down + corrupt → truth deceives (tyranny).
Bottom-up + corrupt → truth devours (chaos).

[David Vogel @dnvogel]

@ItIsHoeMath The masses need truth in a form they can live by. Religion has always served this role: guiding culture from the ivory tower and into daily life. This has always been pastoral work.

[David Vogel @dnvogel]

Nature is still undefeated. We just keep throwing smarter machines at it and hoping it doesn’t notice.

[David Vogel @dnvogel]

@ScottAdamsSays The robots will get better at taking our electricity. Mimicry is just one strategy.

@PageauMatthieu Drinking from my Tony Stark mug of coffee this morning and thinking, I'm drinking from my cup of suffering, lol. Iron Man dies in the end like Samson, knowing it's required of him. Captain America gets a renewed life because he's always ready to (and does) lay his life down.

[David Vogel @dnvogel]

@PaulVanderKlay Not all who wonder are lost... even if they don't know it.

[David Vogel @dnvogel]

@PageauMatthieu @realjosepheliah @Reprobus44 The movie Groundhog Day... after pursuing hedonism and death in all forms, Phil could see himself, learn the limit of his love, how to play his tune and exists the cycle. Happy Groundhog Day!

[David Vogel @dnvogel]

@PageauJonathan Indeed.
