@ShadowyZephyr@bryan_caplan Loans are paid by society as a whole even if you don’t pay them because you’re taking consumption from others. If AI is going to kill everyone your loan is just making them work more in their last moments.
@neoavatara So you support more money to SAHM of wealthy households than poorer households? Not just regressive but likely disproportionately encouraging high labor value moms to stay out vs low value moms.
@ASFleischman “She posed an obvious, deadly threat, and officers were not required to look for less than lethal options under the circumstance.” Legally no, morally yes
@MattBruenig@abundancechud@lilbabygandhi Small regional satellite states function differently than the large global imperial nation. Norway also doesn’t bomb Iran.
@lilbabygandhi@neolib_abhishek Yes the actions of the world imperial power whose wealth fund would hold a large percentage of the global economy, and consistently demonstrates interventionalist instincts, would be the same as one of its small satellite economies.
@cremieuxrecueil If you think AI is a bubble, then stopping it is good (unless you strongly value the inequality lowering effects of tech wealth destruction). Not mentioned much but seems in line with what people are saying.
@lilbabygandhi >I wish politics was more dependent on financial markets.
>I wish Trump could directly give money to firms.
Probably a cool idea (like the other libertarian ideas of the 2010’s, UBI etc). But a shareholder owned grocery store is not “socialism”.
@Jonathan_Blow@lymanstoneky@jakozloski No, patrilocality means woman moves to husband. Village is essentially a 1 paternal lineage (sons stay, his sons stay etc) and multiple maternal (each wife from a different village). So a plague wipes out all the towns but once you have 1 dad lineage and many different maternal.
@SEAsheltie@lymanstoneky Cops stalk people, cops have been stalking people and abusing people since forever. You should care about this if it actually results in materially more victims. They also are getting in the news and caught because these systems are auditable, unlike in the past.
