Elon getting snooty and Starlink issues in Ukraine are just press releases too; how the fuck do we know what anyone actually did? Too many red herrings troubleshooting systems to assume Starlink isn't just glitched sometimes

While I am firmly in the "Ukraine is the good guy" camp generally both sides of a nation state conflict will lie to both deflect blame and project competence and strength. Will give Zelensky benefit of the doubt until he dead or war ends and if he doesn't step aside legally. But he will latch onto headlines to get his message heard even if Ukraine had nothing to do with it.

I did not intend to imply it's good or bad what happened, it's just the capital exchanges and consequences are obvious

Not really about the political/ finance jargon to me but the change in ground truth for us

Now what?

We just do the last mile "human work"? Mow lawns, make zines, hack RPis for fun and teach maintenance of the robots. Cook and socialize but the robots make sure neighborhood grocery and hardware store are full?

Semantics aside giving everyone a direct handle to submit issues also can act like MAD nuke policy: https://aeon.co/essays/game-theory-s-cure-for-corruption-mak...

I mean what're the Founders and our living but aging elders going to do? Stick around and make sure we stick to the script? The Founders didn't even either.

Law and code that feeds the fed gov AI could conceivably be built and deployed be blocked like usual by need for sufficient sign offs given a geographic region

So I mean; the language impediments and language that doesn't currently exist can be changed. I mean we don't default to Latin; evolution of social language is not gonna stop with us. We could be intentional about it same as we are with code.

Lots of names to obfuscate the same financial yada yada.

There's all kinds of wild shit showing real results not just theorizing, in regenerative medicine; who cares about programming computers when we could have healing factors.

I wanna program my biology. If I rub my tongue on the top of my mouth a certain way I want to taste purple.

Embed neural patterns for kung fu to speed up muscle memory development.

Hack my matrix.

Fingers crossed we can start doing something like this and reduce overall use of gory hack and slash techniques (even still I assume not all cases will be able to avoid it).

The whole economy for 40-ish years now been built on finance engineering away labors grip on anything in the US

There was an intentional "marketing strategy" among scientists and such to convince young men to go into sciences rather than religious or nation state politics or just be bums fighting and drinking back in the day. They lifted heavily from the tone used by church and military recruiter propaganda

Different tone to the prose merely reflects the zeitgeist of the day. Should be seen as a tool like a wrench.

In IT things like "protected memory" are just access control problems; under the hood the algorithms to solve either rely on same physical machine state patterns; test if current user should have access to this memory (RAM or disk) and react accordingly to the test.

At the language layer though we encapsulate both in different function names and git check ins

It's bizarre

Given the number of photons and possible angles for light to bounce around would not be shocked if standing in the woods during the so-called "golden hour" observing the God-rays filter through flora is zapping our brains with more information than all the text we read on screens

A walk in the woods feels so refreshing because every where our eyes look its layers of geometric and color gradient information never repeating themselves in subtle ways; lighting up a larger gradient in our brain than the normalized minimalism inherent to text does in order for us to understand each other

Sitting at a screen however, is sitting at a screen. All that's missing is the electrodes from the computer to your brain so the obviousness its a lab experiment is unmistakable

Time to stop being friends with a computer that doesn't care you exist and go socialize

Dropped the ball on the usability there with no arm. Could have also marketed a table game function; placed at center of table, arm could allow screen to swivel 360 for everyone to use as needed

The iOS-ification of hardware while they keep part prices high to get people hooked on networked AI over a dumb terminal
