If people slight me then I should be able to slight them back...

I saw that too. He isn’t a virologist and also is hawking his book. And he’s not very articulate or dispassionate. And he still hasn’t contradicted me in any way. Not unambiguously.

And even though this guy destroys all of your panic driven assumptions and ideas, you probably won’t upvote me will you?

Appalling. That’s so funny. The morbidity rate is far less than 3%. Most people who get it probably don’t even realize they have it which makes the numbers look worse than they are. Look I’m not saying nothing should be done. If nothing were done the. We might see something that vaguely resembles what you are describing. If people wouldn’t panic and if antibiotics were prescribed remotely and if people did a few basic things like wash their hands and stay at home if they have a preexisting medical condition, then basically nothing would happen. The only one we don’t have is a lack of panic. People are trying to see their doctors and get tests while they have no symptoms. I’m sorry man but you’re wrong this time.

I would love to see a source that contradicts what I said. My source is the testimony of a virologist with 40 years of experience and other qualified people. I’m sorry to be blunt but there simply isn’t anything to brace for. The worst case scenario is that a very small number of people die before herd immunity slows the spread to nothing, after which the virus will basically disappear probably before we even have a vaccine for it. That’s what happened with Zika and some others. That’s what’s going to happen here. The number of people who die will be similar to deaths from the flu, car accidents and other things. Can you offer a single substantive counter argument to anything I’ve said? I will enjoy reading it.

I just finished listening to a veteran virologist give a 2 hour interview. It’s being blown way out of proportion. Nobody under the age of 9 has died, period. Under the age of 30 your mortality probability is vanishingly small. It’s only a threat to people who have a compromised immune system because of age, diabetes or something like that. This is nothing like the Spanish flu. Unlike influenza viruses, these viruses don’t mutate in a way that would cause their recurrence every year. The chances of a more deadly strain popping up are extremely small.

I listened to trump address the nation in the rose garden live today. The npr correspondent confidently said that this virus “isn’t going away.” It’s a flat out lie and hysteria.

I haven’t done it yet so I’m not bragging. And how am I gonna take a street drug that’s dirty, tainted with other drugs and also there’s no way to know what dose you are taking which is critical to the treatment? And I’m not getting anything off the dark web because I don’t want to go to prison and also want know what I’m taking. Making single dose quantities is harmless and it’s pretty much impossible to be caught. And nobody cares anyway because I’m not distributing it or even using it in public. The number of people who do this are in the double digits and offer no threat to society. What the fuck is wrong with you.

I make comments one tenth as retarded as this and get flagged instantly...

Is tails actually safe to use? Has it been audited by someone who is trusted in the sec community? And that’s not even to talk about whether tor itself is still good.

Can someone please flag this person?

I use a long diceware password for my iPhone. It prevents police from bypassing the rate limiter and brute forcing your password quickly. There’s supposed to be a machine that allows them to do that.

Unlocking my phone throughout the day is done with Touch ID. If I think I’m going to encounter the police or be away from my phone, I press the lock button five times which disables Touch ID. I’ve been doing this for two years and it works great.

I was surprised to learn about the glassware. When I learned that mdma therapy for ptsd wouldn’t be available for years and would cost 15k even with insurance, I dusted off my old organic chemistry book. I can’t believe I’ve been made to do this in order to get medical treatment.

This is just silly. Of course it’s known if we can transport humans to mars. The answer is yes. The only question is how much it will cost. All you have to do is surround the craft with mass. It doesn’t even have to be attached to the craft. The cost of giving the mass enough energy to get out of orbit and over to mars is the only question.

The moon is just as much of an un-funded wank fantasy as mars... grow up dude

Literally everything you said is wrong except projectiles and space stations. Magnetic fields are easy to make. Wind storms and unbreathable air and radiation and projectiles don’t matter if you’re underground. The idea that a floating city is better than a city cemented in soil is laughable. Good luck maintaining that Teflon coating on literally every exterior surface.

Well here I am again. Here are things I think people should know:

Gluconeogenisis does not kick you out of ketosis nor is it’s existence a counter-point to the keto diet.

I have first hand experience with keto and psychosis. I experienced something traumatic a while ago and began to have psychotic symptoms similar to schizophrenia. I had read an article beforehand written by a doctor claiming that keto benefited his psych patients, so I tried it. It cured me. Most symptoms gone in a couple days, total remission within a couple weeks. So PSA: if you or someone you know is having problems with psychotic mental health problems, keto may help you.

And I should add I was formally diagnosed with psychosis and prescribed antipsychotics. And the symptoms correlated perfectly with going on and off keto. Very little ambiguity. They are doing a study on this in Finland but results won’t be out till December.

My step mom was recently going through a bunch of old vhs tapes looking for wedding footage of her mother’s wedding. 99% of the tapes are television from the early 2000s. She was going to just throw them away! So now I’ve got 30 tapes of early 2000s gold. I’m going to digitize them and upload them to YouTube.

We need smart people. The topics are only ever software development but none the less I’ve reviewed your comment history and you can have an invite if you want.

I’ve reviewed your comment history and was pleased with the technical stuff and lack of flaming. Expect an invite in the next 24 hours

Social intelligence and creative tasks are signal processing tasks...

Yeah just like we’re nowhere close to go. According to the experts.

Wow, hello. I’m about to clock In the for the day so I’m afraid I can’t address your sources until later tonight. But in the meantime, saying that other people think this is true doesn’t advance your argument in my mind. I don’t care what “experts” say, although I have no problem picking it apart, because there are no experts in AI that doesn’t exist yet. Nobody has first hand experience studying a real world example of what we are talking about. High level signal processing is the only thing that humans monopolize. The more of that that gets automated, culminating with AGI, the closer we are to the obsolescence of humans. It’s just blindingly simple. And please don’t call me an alarmist. I’m genuinely concerned here. I don’t ruminate in this because it’s fun.

This is like reading a global warming denier. The earth has heated up and cooled down before. Global heating has never been catastrophic before so why would it be now?

This guy literally uses graphs and charts from the industrial revolution and and generalizes the results over to automation as a concept. And then he confidently states that this proves that the concept of automation benefits the highly educated. Yeah, well when high level signal processing is automated that won’t be true will it?

Just like global warming, this isn’t a problem that can be understood by looking at localized effects in the recent past. It’s a problem that can only be understood through first principles reasoning. Greenhouse gasses heat the planet. Therefore global warming is a thing. Humans are high level signal processing machines. Therefore the automation of high level signal processing will displace humans in the global market. It’s just inescapable. And yet people mental-gymnastic their way out of it.

And whenever I see “alarmist” in someone’s argument, it’s never a strong argument. The alarmists are right.
