Dunno why we keep pretending that the dilemma is concrete in the realm of autonomous vehicles when the obvious answer there is “the car slams on the brakes as hard as possible to minimize manufacturer liability.” What a worthless problem to endlessly discuss.

Like the constant Trolley Problem chatter feels linked to the over-eagerness of the Yglesiases and Newsoms of the world to find vulnerable people to sacrifice for the greater good. Like it's a way to make HURTING people somehow seem VIRTUOUS.
No thanks!

Increasingly of the opinion that the correct answer to the Trolley Problem is "fuck you, why are you so fixated on finding reasons to justify killing people?"

agree. People, when *secure* with their basic needs & then some, allow the body & brain to blossom. How much better would things be for everyone if they were all properly supported.

Screaming at your enemies to stop doing things that make your war effort difficult is always a winning strategy. Famously so.

Good Lord, Trump seems to have forgotten that in war, your enemy gets a vote. If the Iranians read this, they will understand he is terrified and desperate, and probably speed up the mining of the straits. Worst war leader in US history.

13K immigrant truck drivers lose California licenses
Many of them live or work in the Bay Area.
They’re extremely committed to the “make every aspect of US industry and life grind to a fucking halt” bit

Anyone trying to explain the line between porn and art rather than the former being a subset of the latter is just trying to invent the distinction wholesale and declare it into existence.
By any conventional definition of art, porn qualifies, so they have to start tacking on asterisks.

In Sven's forecast today on his Patreon, he expressly connects the lack of certainty about the weekend snowstorm to the reduction (and in some cases suspension) of weather balloon launches out west. "Put bad data into the model, you get bad results."

people are like “I love toxic yuri, I can only vibe with the deepest pit of human agony as a true reflection of my dark desires as the most twisted of all himes” and then when you ask what they mean they say shit titled “Fluffy Sunset In The Bunny Garden” or a cartoon for american 12 year olds.

Hey, if you're disabled and you use your phone an absolutely obscene amount of hours a day because it's the only thing you can do within your energy budget and it's the one way you can interact with the world. I see you. Don't be embarrassed about that. It's okay. You're allowed to be addicted to your phone. Especially if that phone is the only thing keeping you from absolutely losing your mind while you're stuck at home or in bed.
Don't let ppl shame you for your screen time.

Jag tycker att det är ganska intressant, det som kommer ut, att Israel försökte få med Obama på exakt samma grej men det inte fungerade utan vi fick The Iran Deal, och sen när Trump förstörde den insåg Israel "ah, här har vi en dum fan" och försökte igen och

nu i höstas hände det här mig med. på torsdagsförmiddagen skrev jag en tweet om Jessika Stegrud. på fredagsmorgonen ringde soc min fru. två anmälningar hade kommit in en timme efter att jag publicerat min tweet, och i dem påstods det att jag hade slagit mitt barn på tunnelbanan.

A few weeks ago a screenshot was going around here of a guy on Twitter posting an AI clip—of Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee fighting, I think, or an Office pastiche—saying Hollywood was cooked.
I went and looked. His feed was all AI clips like that. And they were all atrocious. Unwatchable.

I like this analogy, and I'm going to try to figure out how to expand it to encompass the fact that at volumes greater than a sip—a novel, a movie, even a three-minute video clip—AI turns inevitably to bilgewater.
