@devanshmehta and... why the fuck they cant just hire someone to finish the full payouts with their hundreds of millions of dollars of endowments. ok, fine, rene, you're sick. hire someone then!

No, you cannot walk 10,000 steps daily, get 8 hours of sleep, cook every night, clean every day, take care of a family, make time for your own hobbies, and still be productive at work every day. This is not just propaganda, it is nonsense. Free yourself from it.

@_SUPER7X Why is anything a binary? Relatively stark difference makes binary language expedient.

[⚪️faze⚫️ @posireal]

@_SUPER7X More expedient than more granular expositions, of course*

@Jayseki @_SUPER7X You also said that "non-conscious" cows might be "more conscious" than a sleeping human. Maybe spend a bit more thought on this?

[⚪️faze⚫️ @posireal]

@CrimeaArchivist @Crieffish @_SUPER7X Yep I agree with @Crieffish. you seem to be deriving ontology from ethics which already indicates a stark distinction between the two, which, like consciousness, I believe is/are fundamentally unified. I don't think you have any idea what youre doing in this convo lol.

Atoms have no eyelashes. I am made of atoms. I have eyelashes. What's the difference? Why is it a hard problem? Bc I also have a hand, which has no eyelashes. Therefore, I have parts that both do and do not have eyelashes. However, I cant identify anything w/o consciousness.

[🐾Eneasz Brodski @EneaszWrites]

the "Hard Problem" in a nutshell:

1. atoms aren't conscious
2. humans are made of atoms
3. humans are conscious
4. so at least one of 1-3 must be false

Panpsychists say #1 is false
Dualists say #2 is false
Illusionists say #3 is false
Materialists say #4 is false

Bc valence simply means directionality/tendency, which says little about subjectivity

@bratton Simple: everything has that fundamental property if consciousness we have because it's fundamental. Simple directed awareness, self-reproduction, adaprive self-organization, desire, desiring-machines, etc OR if you are uncomfy with social stigma maybe just "valence"

The consultancy class is really the biggest con in American politics right now, it needs to be called out more especially on the left

Zohran Mamdani : "There was waste. There's also this addiction to consulting. When we looked at the city budget, we realized we had to save money through efficiency. So we set up something called 'Chief Savings Officers' in every department. We saved $94M just by renegotiating contracts to a better rate. We saved $24M by letting go of unused office space. I believe that government has to be the most excellent, efficient version of itself to be worthy of people's trust."

[Ruwa Romman @ruwaromman]

This is what efficiency should mean, not cutting life saving services.

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

It shouldn't be difficult to get the money you're owed. On day 34 of our administration, we launched NYC Free Tax Prep for the 2026 filing season.

So far, it’s saved New Yorkers $226.6 million.

Visit https://t.co/b86ereZ0oo to find a Free Tax Prep site near you, become a volunteer, or learn more about how NYC can save you time and money next tax season.

@samsenchal @romanyam And just because LLMs aren't ASI, doesn't mean they won't lead there. They pretty surely will. And soon. Total non argument.

[⚪️faze⚫️ @posireal]

@samsenchal @romanyam Also, i will die someday, and still, I was conscious. Consciousness does not require infinite persistence LOL just temporary Persistence which obvious every entity that exists has. And that's besides the point. Humanity+culture is more persistent than my body. Just so, ai vs llms
