except our bodies already kinda do that on their own

how would killing species of gut biota would helpful? helpful for whom to accomplish what??

we're headed to a future in which you have to take special pills so that the food doesn't kill you. like the glysophate and GMOs but applied against ALL life, including humans. if this is too far fetched for you then I also hope we don't get there.

Blockchain tech isn't 14 years old, it's 30 years old, or even 40 if you want to go back to the '82 paper. Still no world-changing tech has come from it, aside from monopoly money.

that's like saying that submarines were invented when Jules Verne wrote about them (i.e. you're wrong)

blockchain technology requires the internet, hence it cannot be older than the internet

agree. the USD dollar is backed by the threat of violence which is how I understand what it means to be an empire; in contrast with a 'civilization' (though it seems as though empire is the early stage of civilization, it boots things up)

Inertia is not a virtue - neither for an object, nor for a human

because inertia is unavoidable. a fact of nature, it's useless to try to judge it as good or bad; however we all do this. and after trying to do this, we all eventually learn that inertia is unrelated to virtue and that everything will be affected by inertia

is this good? or bad? is this a virtue? or a vice? good for subjects? bad for objects?

the answer is no all the way until one realizes that it doesn't matter. it'll still be inertia

I think that human memory "keeps" the next prompt by baking it into the parameters of the "neural net" (the brain) immediately

this is has gotta be somehow an analogue of dreams andor sleep andor AI hallucinations.

I think this because for many of us, to not sleep triggers hallucinations, which is the conscious experience of whatever the organic version of 'backpropagation' (training the model?) really is.

You are being silly about "the law!!!", right?

I really do believe this. software will eventually change the very nature of human language and hence of human thought

I picked up this line of thought from an academic Walter J. Ong who wrote a book "Orality and literacy" in which he argues that literacy (written word) changed how we think.

so I just extend that reasoning. I think that software constitutes a larger change in humanity's thought than the printing press; but that's like my opinion man

little reason to expect it.

there's one huge reason to expect this: it's cheaper than real people (no salary, no royalties)

only looks expensive because it's new. but it won't stay expensive because it's all software so it has zero cost of distribution (given the internet)

And its disruption applies to film, illustration, music, coding, writing, etc

just keep going, this stuff will disrupt THE LAW. the foundation of civilized society as we know it!!!

this goes beyond markets, markets are based upon the law!!!

but you are missing out that the solution is to keep making it inconvenient to let people use linux and other kinds of custom devices

eventually either nobody will use that, or they'll just jump the shark and outlaw such things

I know that for example in Canada, because taxes, ALL restaurants are (were?) FORCED to use a specific sets of devices else they're branded as tax-avoiders and dealt with accordingly

I've already had trouble using banking stuff under linux, I have had to cancel some cards because they became useless without a smartphone app (the real punchline is that I got a new card that's only works on a smartphone. but at least it was like this when I signed up; they didn't change how it works under my feet)

the solution, regrettably, already in motion, is (obviously) to make sure less people know anything about computers.

by these two actions combined this anti-freedom garbage (further consolidating and centralizing powers) will work effectively
