It's because ignoring rights happens faster than they can be protected.
Move fast enough with sufficent scale and you can eliminate peoples ability to protect their own rights before they even realise they are under threat.
Sometimes friction in government is necessary for individual liberty.
I would say they create more addictive content than people with lives away from social media.
But that doesnt help with building 1:1 connections.
Why instead of?
Do both.
Not even close chief.
Earth has been a rich, life sustaining planet in far hotter conditions then anything we are projected to take it to.
We can kill billions of ourselves, but short of ww3 earth will crack on just fine.
Social media emotional hot-takes dont match the numbers.
We are still screwed though.
At one point we considered adding artifical delay to responses because irrational users dont trust something that finishes fast, even if its the same quality.
How empirical are your comparisons of new and old outputs?
Users dont understand the externalised cost of free services.
Worse than that, they feel entitled to them, to the point that the actual expectation of having to pay for something that requires effort to maintain is treated as an insult.
Because i would rather solve the problems close to home, the problems involving those billionaires.
Im not going to put effort into turning those other people in another country into a new cash crop for billionaires.
Their needs are met.
They are turning to racism because of their wants and fears.
And if you are any kind of strategic thinker when faced with that problem, you will do two things
1. Invest in propaganda to ensure the US becomes hostile to immigrants.
2. Invest in opening yourself up to immigration.
China is openly doing 2. It would be foolish to assume they are are not also investing in 1 and secretly cheering on the current administrations hateful stupidity.
Immigration is the US superpower, and everyone who wants to knock them off the number 1 spot is eroding it.
I found it fun to read.
War against someone who wants my society eradicated provides a lot of value to my people.
Its a really interesting question.
Lets take it to its farthest extent: can you take a picture of a black hole?
Or a life where everyone operates in absolutes, with no shades of grey allowed.
Zero reflection and total constant analysis paralysis are both non viable.
Or the value of everything non ai drops to zero, which makes the value of ai infinite by comparison.
It's not about blindly accepting autogenerated code. Its using them for tooling integration.
Its like terminal autocomplete on steroids. Everything around the code is blazing fast.
The majority of obese people want to be thin, but will die obese anyway.
Just wanting something that requires a significant overhaul of how you do things, is not enough.
If this reduces error rates to below those of a human, then that's an acceptable approach.
Unless you think humans code reviewing humans is pointless because errors sometimes still slip through?
Pass.
Im glad not to be confined by historical rules invented by people who could not hope to predict the future, and would not choose to put that kind of burden on my descendents.
The libertarian fantasy where its possible to exist without the choices of others impacting you, doesn't work in the real world.
They voted against it because they thought it didn't go far enough.
Those three things are just part of point 4 in the article.
An authoritarian leader will tell you those things are under threat and that only they can protect them, to create a feeling of threat that will persuade the gullible to give up their freedom.
I'm one of those people who is happier when spending some time in the office each week and have said that when surveyed.
Don't assume survey results that run counter to your anecdotal experience have been fabricated.
This is overblown.
The police are responsible for deciding how to classify a report. Their decisions need to be audited to avoid corruption.
Ergo they have to maintain a record of reports they decided were not hate crimes.
Depends what else it's solving for.
I've seen multiple issues solved like this after engineering teams have been cut to the bone.
If the cost of maintaining enough engineers to keep systems stable for more than 24 hours, is more than the cost of doubling the container count, then this is what happens
The us system is what a free market approach inevitably degrades into when consumers don't have a real option to say no to a service.
If they used their own products to do this then yes. If not then no.
Is that what happened?
Hypothesis: The better you understand the world, the more likely you are to need an occasional drink.
None directly afaik.
But attachment has immense benefit for social animals. Attachment is maintained by both positive and negative emotional incentives.
Grief is the negative emotional incentive ramped up to the max.
Since when are bots operated by organised disinformation campaigns 'the people'?
The offender was a Christian born and raised in the UK. Social media amplified a false narrative of them being a Muslim illegal immigrant.
So now rioters are attacking innocent Muslims and their places of worship.
