Fun trick not a lot of people know -

In a web browser, links which are normally clickable become UN-clickable if you hold a modifier. On a mac, it's (option). It's helpful if you want to select text inside a large link (or in a button) so you can copy it.

But then they'd look the same! :-P You're reminding me of the old story about the leprechaun, commanded not to tamper with a marker over the location of his buried gold, nor to move the gold, instead filled the entire forest with identical markers.

It's a dumb law, but, devil's advocate - isn't that how porn shops work? And porn shops also sell some non-porn items, too.

Although... he did rather famously have a thing for underage girls...

chimpanzees are animals, and the only people who think differently are the straw men in the imaginations of people I prefer not to spend time talking to.

Deleted my post, which I published before Ruby central released their blog explaining things.

It’s ultimately not my place to say or speculate about what’s going on.

It’s obviously a disastrously bad roll out or whatever is happening and I hope they are able to make things right w the community.

Did they do that? Or did they throw out the ones with valid visas too? (hint: It was the latter. Details are in the article.)

The bigger problem is that they "invalidate" your visa post-facto, on a whim, for whatever they want. Attend a political protest? Have a 20 year old bad check on your record despite having lived here for 50 years, since you were a young child? Embarrass a politician? I've seen all of those and more result in a legal immigrant having their visas cancelled and then thrown in jail until they can be deported.

Yeah, if this were a courtroom or a philosophy class or debate hall. But when a bunch of tech nerds are discussing AGI among themselves, claims that true AGI wouldn't be any more powerful than humans very very much have a burden of proof. That's a shocking claim that I've honestly never heard before, and seems to fly in the face of intuition.

Maybe you can post a link in case anyone else is as clumsy with search engines as I am? After all, you can google it just as fast as you claim I can.

Is there a source for this other than "trust me bro"? DARPA isn't a spy agency, it's a research organization.

> governments won't "look ahead", they'll just panic when AGI is happening

Assuming the companies tell them, or that there are shadowy deep-cover DARPA agents planted at the highest levels of their workforce.
